bow Hin's Silence is Construed.


Newspapers that are unfriendIy to Mr..
Cleveland construe Senator Hills silence
relative TO the campaign as meaning that
the senator is not disposed to help elect the
democratic national ticket unless he has as
surances that he will be permitted to con-
troll the federal patronage in New York II
| Mr.. Cleveland is elected. Il is difficult &c
say what Senator Hills silence means. In
view OF the fact that he once won consider
able applause by using in speech the phrase
AZ am Democrat it is difficult to see how
he can avoid taking a very active part in
the campaign in behalf OF the national
democratic ticket.
1t is rather strange. 1t is true, that Sena-
tor Hill has not yet announced his purpose
TO help his party In the pending contest,
but he may have reasons for his silence chat
are entirely satisfactory. He could hardly
afford TO keep out of the contest altogether
de is still comparatively young man, and
doubtless hopes to be prominent in public
life for many years. II he should give his
party the cold shoulder now and leave his
friends in New York TO infer that be would
like to see Mr.. Cleveland beaten, his polit-
ical career would be ended. He would be
looked upon as a traitor 20 his party and
would be treated as such.
Some of the anti-Cleveland papers in New
York are calling attention TO report that
has just been issued by State Labor Com
missioner Peck. This man Peck was ao-
pointed to his present position by Senator
Hill when the senator occupied the govern
or's chair. Ia fact, the commissioner and
the senator have been friends for many
years. 1t Is stated that Peck first called
attention to the senator as q suitable caldt-
date for lieutenant governor. 1t is as
| sumed, therefore, that the commissioner
would not adopt any course relating to
politics without consulting the senator.
His report relates to labor in New York
and the effect the Mckinley tariff has had
on wages The report is so constructed as
to make ii an argument against the tariff
plank OF the democratic platform. The
conclusion suggested by the anti-Clsvelsnd
papers is that it was at the suggestion of
Senator Hill that the report was given the
ooloring on the tariff question that It has
It will take long while to make Senator
Hills friends believe that he is guilty Of
any such treachery. But he owes 1t to
himself and his party to repudate Commits
sioner PecK and his report. He ought
to state frankly and at once
why he has not been more active IN behalf
Of his party. He has great many friends
In New York who will be guided by him,
and he should lose no time in urging his
friends to get to work. He may not share
the admiration Of others for Mr. Cleveland,
but whether be does or not, he ID under OBJ
has honored him greatly, and he cannot re-
main inactive when he has chance to dis
charge these obligations, without being
guilty Of ingratitude.

An Old Editorial CHAIR.

In the private office of the proprietor Of
the MORNING News is chair, probably the
oldest editorial chair" In this country. 1t
is an old fashioned solid oak rocker, with
cane seat and back. 1t is not known how
old this piece of furniture is, but reliable
Information with regard to it extends over
period of forty-two years. Mr.. Henry j.
Middleton, the foreman of the MORNING
NEWS, says that it was part of the furni-
ture of the editorial room of the old Office
on Bay street when he became an apprentice
in 1850, and that the first time he was sent
to the editorial room for "copy" the late
venerable editor of the MORNING NEWS,
Col. William T. Thompson, Major Jones
of Major Jones' Courtship,n) was sitting
In it. Doubtless all the editors of the olden
times connected with the paper, as we'll as
the many distinguished men of the country
who have made social or business calls on
the MORNING NEWS, have sat IN it. It was
here during the exciting days OF the polit-
ical contests of wings and democrats, Sc
ceders and unionists In the midst Of the
battles of the war, from the time that the
first gun was fred at Sumter to The last at
Bentonville, it was here. 1t passed with
the newspaper into the hands of Shermans
soldier editors, and again back into those
of its old friends on the restoration of civil
government. 1t has survived destruction
and reconstruction. Editors, printers and
subscribers. type aud machinery have passed
away, but the old chair remains, a relic of
the old-time newspaper.

That $4,000 Deposit Law.

The business men Of this state have got
to do something to protect themselves
against the insurance companies which have
monopoly OF the insurance business Of
this state. II they do not taxes and insur-
ance will take all Of their profits.
Rates of insurance have been greatly in
creased recently In this city. They were
pretty high before the increase. With the
increase they make business men hesitate to
insure at all. It looks as IL the insurance
companies think they have the business
men in their power and will take from
them all they can get
The people should begin at once to call
the attention of the candidates for the legis-
lature to this insurance matter. What is
urgently needed is the repeal OF the law
which requires an insurance company to
make deposit of s25, 900 with the state be-
fore it can do business within the states
limit This law requiring deposit to be
made gives few companies q monopoly of
the fire insurance business of the state. 1t
enables them to charge exorbitant rates.
The men who are honest in their dealings
with the insurance companies are made to
pay for the acts of the dishonest ones and
their able allies, the careless agents. In
their eager struggle for commissions the
agents insure those who should not be
trusted, and thus they not only injure their
respective companies, but encourage ras.

tinue this kind of business and make the

The present insurance laws in Georgia
gives a few companies a monopoly of the

II is greatly to be regretted that there Is
not public spirit enough In Georgia to have
the state represented at the Columbian fair
at Chicago. The governor and the ne VS.
papers have done their best to arouse the
people to the Importance of the state max

been successful. Georgia, the Empire state
of the south, will be one Of the few states
that will have no exhibit.
