A Road to Isle of Hope.

A splendid road to Isle of Hope is now
regarded as a certainty. The citizens of
Isle of Hope having decided upon a route,
which is almost an airline from the city to
that place, all that is now necessary to be
done to secure the building Of the road is
the getting Of the rights of way. When
that is accomplished the county commits
sioners. in accordance with their pledge,
will begin the work OF building the road as
soon as the necessary hands can be spared
from other work.
When the rood is completed it will add
greatly to the pleasure, and even to the
profit, of the people Of Savannah, and, in
fact. Of the whole county. The $1,000 ap-
propriated by the last grand jury for the
Improvement, together with convict labor,
should be sufficient TO construct a superb
rosd-one that is superior to either of the
shell roads. When IL is completed the
county commissioners should set apart 300
or 400 acres Of the county poor farm. which
is on the line OF the road, for public park
The time Is not distant when the city's
limits will be close TO the poor farm, and q
park, such as is suggested, would be highly
appreciated by the people of the city. 1t i:
good thing to look a little way ahead.

The Columbian Fairs Finances.


The Columbian fair is ready to go into
the hands Of a receiver. It hasn't nickel
in its treasury. Its last postage stamp has
been used What does Chicago propose to
do now with regard to the fairl When she
was besieging congress TO give her the fair
she boosted that she wouldn't ask for any
outside aid and wouldn't call upon the gov
eminent for any assistance other than what
was necessary to construct government
building and prepare the government ex-
hibit. But what are her boastful words
worthl They can't be used as collateral to
secure cash. No one would advance post
age stamp upon them.
The Chicagoans are windy people. They
do an immense amount Of blowing, and they
succeed in making the world believe they
can accomplish more than other people.
They made congress believe their own re-
sources were sufficient to carry out the
Columbian fair enterprise. 1t may be that
their resources are sufficient, but IL they are
they don't intend TO draw heavily upon
them.
The financial condition Of the fair is de-
piorable. Unless the government makes an
immediate appropriation for it, and very
large one, work upon il will have to stop.
AS there isn't dollar in sight it has stopped
already probably. The contractors will not
care to go on with their contracts unless
they are assured that money due them will
be forthcoming.
1t is to be regretted that the fair has got
into its present unfortunate condition.
Although some way will be found to get
the necessary money to carry it through
successfully its financial difficulties will
have a dampening effect upon it. The
preparation of exhibits will be checked and
foreign countries may get the impression
that the fair ia to be abandoned. The gov
eminent will have to provide the money for
the fair and the probabilities are that it
will get none of it back.
Chicago is determined TO have the credit
of getting up the biggest show the world
ever saw, and she proposes TO make the
country pay for it. The credit and benefits
accruing from the fair she intends to APP
propriate.

One Obstacle That Stopped a Trade.
A Chicago millionaire who had been exercis-
ing his team Of bays on Michigan boulevard a
few morning ago was on his way back to his
| downtown ofic4 says the Chicago Tribune.
| He was compelled to wait at Fortieth street
| few moments on account OF a Lake Shore pas
senger train that blocked the highway. A
| plainly-dressed but businessike man who had
been standing on the sidewalk came out TO the
| middle of the road, examined the horses with
somewhat critical eye and said respectfully:
II beg your pardon, sir, but may ask II TINS
team and buggy are for sale!'
II have not thought Of selling the outfit, "
| answered the man in the buggy with an amused
| smile, but might, perhaps, if anybody should
| ofrer me enough money"
May ask your price for the horses, harness
| and buggy. just as they are?"
"Cashsdown"
Certainly"
''Why-I hardly-what do you say to 5000. p"
The man examined the horses again
IN take them at that figure, lie said, but
shall have TO go to the First National Bank TO
| get the money"
An right. Climb in. am going in that
direction"
time, and the next moment the team as dying
down the boulevard at its best gait, as if bent
| on showing that II was rare bargain, even at
| $4,000.
on arriving at the. bank less than halt an
hour later. the buslnesslike man got out of the
buggy. went inside the building and came out
again IN about fifteen seconds
I'm sorry to say" he observed with much
| chagrin. shat the cashier says haven't cent
in this bank"
Have you a cent in any other bankf"
mo, sir, am obliged to confess that the only
hope had OF getting the money was here
That has failed me- 1 had set my heart on
those horses, but shall have TO give them up.
| am grateful to you, sir, for having brought me
into the city, and beg your pardon for the
trouble and delay have caused you. Good
morn"
hold on" exclaimed the millionaire. ibid
you put up this little job on me to save car fare
downtown
81 hope you will not think too hard Of me for
contesslng that did, but"
Then you have saved cents by the transac
tion?"
Yes. sir. That is what it would have cost
me. il had had it, to come In on the ele
waited"
Yes, see. You haven't really beat me out
of any money. my friend. but you have come
out ahead of me, and you are the first man that
has done that within fifteen years. even to the
tune OF cents Here's IS gold piece for you
and II you will hunt Potter Palmer up some
day when he's out driving and work the same
little game on him I'll give you twenty"
He tossed the coin out on the sidewalk, gave
his bays light touch with the whip and his
buggy was soon lost to sight in the throng OF
vehicles going north on Dearborn.

A Hard Road to Travel.

The deposed chairman of the republican
national committee, Gen. Clarkson, In his
remarks the other day 70 the committee,
when taking leave of it, said 1--WE are enter
ing upon a campaign which is no holiday
excursion He did not make this state
ment because he was not to be the manager
of the campaign for the republicans, but
because he believed it to be very doubtful
whether Mr.. Harrison could be elected. He
spoke frankly for the reason, doubtless, that
he did not want the committee to think 1t
had an easy task.
Mr., Clarkson is a western man and very
shrewd and capable politician. He knows
that in the vest the Republican party has
been losing ground steadily for a number
OF years. and that there is now pretty fair
prospect that the electoral votes Of several
western states, that are classed as repub
lican, will be cast for the democratic ticket
Iowa has elected a democratic governor
twice in succession and Illinois recently
sent a democrat TO the United States Sem
ate Wisconsin and Michigan are just on
the cdge of democracy. and may be pushed
over into the democratic camp by the force
of public sentiment at the coming election
in November.
All through the west there is a profound
feeling OF dissatisfaction with the Mckinley
tariff The farmers are studying the tariff
question as they have never studied it be-
fore, and they are reaching the conclusion
that there is no good reason why they
should be so heavily burdened with tariff
taxes. They are beginning to see that those
who are the benefciaries of the protective
system are accommodating great fortunes
while they themselves are barely able to
make both ends meets. This condition Of
affairs makes them Disconnected and desir-
GUS of a change. This is why the great
republican majorities of a few years
ago in many Of the western states have dis
appeared, and why there is fair prospect
of q democratic victory in a number Of
them.
Under the circumstances il is not strange
that Gen. Clarkson told the republican ma
tional committee it had a hard road to
travel And he meant what he said.

riding homeward the other evening, busily Gu

The Third Party's Demand.

The MORNING News stated q day or two
ago that the only thing that held the third
party together Is its demand for an increase
in the volume of the currency All its
other demands are simply made for show.
It's members seem to be under the impress
sion that the material condition Of the peo-
pie would be greatly benefited by an i'm
mense increase in the volume of the cur
rency. They are unable to say how they
would be benefited. but they feel assured
that they would have more money in their
pockets II more currency were in ciroula-
ton.
They have no very clear idea as to what
extent the volume Of the currency should
be increased. On that point they differ
greatly. Some one of their conventions
recently expressed the opinion that the
amount should be increased to $40 per
capita. Another convention said $50 per
capita, and the third party convention,
which met In Nashville, Tenn, Tuesday,
said S75. Probably another convention In
some other state will demand 800 per
| capita.
The amount of currency In circulation
now is about $24 per capita, and that is
greater than 1t has been at any previous
time. There is more money now In money
centers than ever before. There are tens OF
millions of dollars idle in New York city
banks because 10 cannot be loaned at even
per cent. per anuum. Nobody has
any trouble in getting money who has
something to give In exchange for it, or
| good collateral to offer as security for it.
! But what would be the result il the de-
mand Of the third party Of Tennessee should
| be granted Money would be cheaper, of
course, but it would take good deal more
of it than at present to purchase the neces-
stiles of life. Laborers would want their
wages doubled because OF the impossibility
of living upon the wages they now get A
few debtors might be helped little in get
ting rid of their obligations, but the great
masses of the people would, in all probability,
find that cheap money did not bring to them
the blessings they hoped for. Instead of
blessings it would bring them annoyances
of all kinds. Cheap money doesn't mean
prosperity by any means.

She Bet on Cleveland.

One Of the young women stenographers at
the Auditorium hotel is an earnest Cleveland
democrat. The presence of the party of Tam
many braves in the rotunda Of the hotel during
the convention and their expressions of conf
dence in the downfall of her ideal political
leader did not shake her faith. Thursday after
noon Just before the time for the opening of
the second session of the day, a Tammauy man
dictated a business letter TO the stenographer,
and 10 closing remarked that 1t was then Ger
tain that Cleveland would not be nominated.
The young woman, according to the Chicago
Herald stopped her work abruptly and, ad-
dressing the dictator, said:
Think sof'

would bet two to one on it."

zach Shouted for His Candidate.

The campaign has developed early in Ger.
tain portion of the city where democratic and
arepublican family reside as neighbors, if not as
friends, says the St Louis Republic Relations
between them have been somewhat strained OF
late, owing to an evenings discussion upon the
thrilling topic Of tariff reform. and the GOODNESS
has extended itself even to the children of the
warning families.
The other afternoon one of the boys clam
bered upon the fence which divided the rear
yard and after discovering That the neighbor
boy was in sight and hearing, shouted with all
his little might:
"Hooray for Cleveland"
The boy in the next yard looked up, hesitated
and then sent back an answering shout, mingled
with contempt:
"Hooray for the devil!'
This was a poser. The little boy on the
fence had no words in which to express his
feelings, and for a moment he thought about
it vigorously. Then great light came to
him and he 1attened out his antagonist with
the reply:
''All right, Johnnie You holler for your side
and I'll holler for mine"
There has been a dovelike peace in that back
yard ever since.

One Short Hour.
Il LIZ

To high and low there comes an hour
That rules them all with equal power;
They may be dull they may be learned,
Full sweetly sought, full sorely spurned;
But in that hour with doubt replete,
Not one is braced by self-conceit.
A man? lie looks upon a maid
Enslaved, desiring, but afraid;
Regards her face, believes il fair,
And longs to put loves token there;
But 20, too dear. and O, too good

A maidl She marks her favorite swain
With pleasure, though much more with pain
And thinks what bliss her bliss must bs
Who wins one kiss from such as he;
And chides herself for thought so rude,
Yet, trembling, wishes that he would

For soon the maid, and soon the man.

When the average newspaper man of ex-
perience reads Of peculiar crime or acct
dent he invariably keeps his eyes open to
see where the next one like it will occur,
for he knows that one will occur, and that
very soon. Experience has taught him
that And sometimes peculiar occurrences
with somewhat similar features come con-
secutiyely. On Monday in New York, for
instance, a very exciting scene-the murder
of prisoner charged with heinous offense
occurred in part Of the general sessions
court On the same day, In part of the
same court, another prisoner, on trial for
the same offense, was only saved from the
vengeance of an Infatuated man by the
prompt action of the officers.

Col. II. s. Haines' article in the North
american Revieto for July on Railway
Safety Appliances" is an exceedingly able
treatment Of a very important subject.
Col. Haines is president of the railway asso-
citation, and read a paper before the associa-
ton at its last meeting on the same subject.
The paper has had very wide circulation,
having been translated into several Euro
pean languages and largely circulated in
European countries. Col Haines has re-
ceived some very complimentary notices Of
it from men eminent in railway circles in
this country and Europe
