The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1892-10-05

Judge Gresham's politics seems to give
some people a lot Of uneasiness. For
months the Peoples partyites tried to drag
him into their ranks against his will, and
only desisted when he used emphatic Mega
tive language TO them. Now, because 1t is
understood that he will vote for Cleve-
land, he is being annoyed again by politi-
clans and reporters to know whether or not
the report is true. Judge Gresham should
be let alone. He has a right to vote for
whom he pleases without question.
Heretofore he has been a steadfast
republican. and the chances ore that he is a
republican still and will vote the republican
ticket at the approaching election. He
needs nobody to tell him how to vote
neither does the democracy need to trade on
his popularity. His vote for Cleveland
would be gladly received, as a matter of
course, and would be highly complimentary
10 the democracy's candidate. But the
Democratic party is not swinging on to
Gresham's coat tails to drag him out of the
republican ranks, as the Peoples party did
until be shook it off.

Democrats Of Georgia have a duty to per-
form to-day which they cannot afford TO
neglect. It is to vote. They should not let
business or other engagements keep them
away from the polls The Democratic
party has given the state an exceptionally
good government. Neither rich nor poor
nor whites nor blacks have had any cause
to find fault with it. The rights of all have
been respected and protected. 1t ought,
therefore, % be Endorsed by an overwheIm-
ing majority a majority as would
! convince the whole country that the third
party has no reason for existence in Georgia.
The MORNING News has said that there
is no question as to whether the Demo-
cratic party will carry the state. The only
question is as to the size Of the majority.
A big majority is needed for several reasons.
One is the moral effect it would have on the
national campaign, and another is the nece'-
sity for showing the third party that 1t has
no chance for getting control Of the state
The whole country is watching Georgia
to-day and waiting with deep interest for the
election returns. The third party has made
its boast that it will carry the state. Let u
be made to appear that 1t never had any
good reason for making sucn boast-that
Georgia is democratic and will remain 30.
Chatham county can help materially to
increase the democratic majority. There
are but few members Of the third party
within her limits. II all Of her democratic
voters who are registered cast their ballots
her addition 10 the democratic majority OF
the state will be q large one.
Chatham county has had no campaign
work done within her limits during this
campaign. Knowing how solidly demo-
cratic she is such work was not thought to
be necessary. But there is a chance for
a good deal of effective work to-day. There
are hundreds Of voters who will not 60 to
the polls unless urged to do So A few
workers around the polls will be sufficient.
The majority Of the workers should be fur
nished with list Of the democratic voters
with instructions to leave nothing undone
TO get all Of them to the polls.
A big victory in Georgia to-day would
have very marked influence on the No
vember election. 1t would encourage the
democrats and discourage their opponents.
1t would make the national republican lead
ers hesitate to send money into any Of the
southern states TO help the republican aud
third party combination, because they
would be about satisfied that it would be
useless to spend money in that way.
The democratic ticket should be given a
of $4,000 or more. Let Chatham
county contribute her share to such a
majority.

The New York Press, junior republican
organ in the city OF its publication, has pro-
muIgated a campaign cry for its partisaus.
1t is, ''No Free Tradel No Pauper Laborp'
Evidently the Press has overlooked the fact
that the Republican party is responsible for
the constant stream Of pauper immigrant
labor that pours into the country from
years end to years end when the quaran-
tine authorities will permit. Another fact
not mentioned is that much of this pauper
labor finds its way into protected industries,
dispIacing native labor, which costs more.
And still another unmentioned fact is that
this same pauper labor is responsible in
considerable degree for the labor troubles
which are constantly agitating the country.
The Press should revise its war whoop and
make it read, mo Free Trade, Except In
Pauper Labor" That would voice the re-
publican doctrine.

Tho Magician and the sultaa,


During tde passage on tie yacht, says Cheva-
lier Hermann in the North Ameltcdn ReUteJC,
we became more familiar, and was brought
into close contact with the sultan. and noticed
that he had a most magnificent watch which
he consulted and handled as If Il were the apple
OF his eye. This, OF course, was Sood thing
Tor me, for, as | was performing before Kim
personally, it was not etiquette to take any
thing from the audience l therefore asked him
TO take out his watch and show it 70 me. which

esty allow me to throw the watch overDc ard:''
He laughed at first, but second afterward his
brow dark~ned, and he looked little bit as if
he were offended with me for making the re-
quest II said /. Il do not return the watch
70 you exactly as you gave it to me, you can
put me in irons for the rest of my life If you
want to-" The sultan, looking me straight in
the eye with piercing glance for a second,
handed the watch to me- and instantly threw

while every one looked at me- not so much with
astonishment as with pure disbelief in my
aolllty TO recover the watch. which was not only
one OF the things in the world the sultan liked,
out was worth a great deal more than any
watch l myself had ever seen, My fishing,
however, happened to be prosperous. for in a

him safely on deck. I brought it before the

More Triggers" Ordered. :

From the Louisville Cotrier-JournGI tDent.).
The very interesting announcement is made
that the republicans have hit upon better
plan TO secure statistics than through the com
missioners Of various states. They have given
an order, it seems, to Census Superintendent
Porter for wholesale JOB lot of 6ggers, show
ing that wages have been raised In 100
cities of the country. This looks like business
Instead of bothering with a statistican here and
another there, they determined to 20 straight 70
headquarters for republican figgers, and the
erntendent the order for the required reports.
There is no disputing the wisdom OF this course.
As purveyor of republican statistics, the
census superintendent has no superior, and the
republican national committee can rest assured
that its large order will be promptly and care
fully flled.

seaside Condolences.

II is one Of the advantages Of life at a sum-
mer resort that people of different sorts are
brought together. Men may live side by side In
the city for years without ever speaking to each
other, but when they meet in the mountains or
on some seaside piazza, they will very likely be-
come mutually communicative at very short
notice. The New YORK Press reports an instance
of exactly this kind.
''Yes," remarked stranger to the editor, as
the two sat on the veranda slipping lemonade
and looking out upon the rolling sea, yes, head
work ia very trying, and the man who earns his
living by 1t needs a vacation now and then"

A picayunish campaign dodge OF the New
York republicans has come to grief. Under
the auspices of the protective tariff league,
tin plates-alleged to be American tin
plates-upon which had been stamped some
republican catch phrase. were being dis
tributed among the children Of the public
schools during the recess hour. The pres
ident of the board of education complained
to the police that the tin plate distributors
were nuissnces, and orders were issued to
the policemen to not allow the distribution
Of any advertisements whatever among the
children.

The Florida Election.

At o'clock this morning the indications
were that the democrats had carried Florida
by a majority of from $1,000 to 10000. It
will be day or two before the returns
from all the counties are received.
This is the first state election under the
law separating the state and county cleo
lions from the federal elections. The con-
test yesterday was between the Democratic
party and the Peoples party. The repub-
licans made no nominations, but there was
an understanding among them that they
should vote the ticket of the Peoples party.
The black vote, however, seems to have
divided, blacks who had never voted any
thing but the republican ticket voting the
straight democratic ticket.
The election was for governor, secretary
of state, one justice of the supreme court,
en- attorney general, controller, state
treasurer. superintendent Of public lnstruc-
ton and commissioned OF agriculture
also for members Of the lower house Of the
legislature and for senators from one-half
of the senatorial districts. The prohibi-
tiohists ran a candidate for governor.
