Now. the professor. while estimating
the outside limit of expense for every
thing on the basis of the auditorium at
tachment to the building. very conven-
iently heglects to figure one cent OF
revenue as coming to the city from the
public hall. Everyone who understands
that this public hall is to be for theatre
cal and other public a~musements. under
stands that it will bring in some sort of
a revenue 1t has been the intention to
offer the hall for rent without any inter
Tor furnishings. in which condition it
will probably not bring more than from
$4,000 to $4,000 a year. but ever SO. it
deserves a place in the estimate. and
though the professor has overlooked it.
we will correct the error by presenting
it here:
Balance of yearly expense as
SHOWN so'p w
Less rental for auditorium. 80 90
Net annual expense. ....... 500 90
This means that the erection and
maintaining Of the proposed city build
ing. costing $4,000, will cost the tax
payers of this city just 800 a year more
than they are now paying, for five years,
after which time. if the council deem it
expedient to begin the accumulation of
a sinking fund. they will be a slight in
crease for this purpose.
Now we claim that in arriving at the
here given. there has been no Juggling
with figures. no statements that will not
bear the light of investigation, and no
exaggeration OF one side Of diminishing of
the other for the sake Of maintaining an
untenable position. while on the other
hand. the opponents Of the bonds have
not only made false and exaggerated
charges of expense. but have made ridi-
culous and misleading statements, as fol.
lows.
The interest on $4,000 at 6 per cent
for 20 years will amount to s2l,SOC
alone
This has but n purpose, and that,
to make the unthinking voter believe,
that in addition to all the alarming ex'
penses already detailed by the profess
sor's dodger, this sum Of s2l 800 is to be
dragged out of the people. while in the
statement which precedes this scare an
nouncement is a charge Of $500 a veal
for a sinking fund, which at the end Of
ten years would pay one-half. or s9.O0t
of the bonds. and reduce the interest
for the remaining ten years s5.4SO to sa!
nothing of subsequent yearly reductions

And again. We have this utterly un

tails Of the matter.

A Good Libel Law.

The legislature Of Georgia has re-
Gently passed a new libel law that
might well be followed by other
States. The law is as follows:
Section Q of the new Law provides
that before any suit shall be brought
for the publication of libel 10 any
newspaper in this State. the aggriey-
ed party shall, ut least three days
before filing or serving the complaint
In such suit, serve notice in writing
on the publisher or publishers Of
said newspaper, at their principal
offlcs Of publication, specifying the
statements in the article or articles
which he or they allege to false and
defamatory. II il shall appear on
the trial of the said action that the
said article was published in good
faith, that Its falsity was due to
mistake or misappreheusion of the
factq, and that full and fair retrac-
tion of any statement therein alleged
to be erroneous was published In the
next regular issue of said paper, or
within three days after receipt
of said written notice, as above pro-
vided, then the plaintiff in such case
shall recover only actual damages.
Section provides that the words
"actual damages" in the foregoing
section shalt be construed to include
all the damages that the plaintiff
may show he has suffered in respect
to his property, business, trade, pro-
fession or occupation, and no other
damages whatever. f

CHRISTMAS.

Day after to-morrow-Monday--
is Christmas Day.
II is the day when the sweet aad
beautiful story Of the birth of the
child Saviour will be repeated, and
broadcast the world Ger will tidiugs
OF joy prevail. The story of The
birth in a manger at Bethlehem new
er grows old bat as the event grow
deeper in the past it gains with much
impression for it's simplicity upon
our hearts, and in silent prayer de-
votedly we do as the wise men of the
age, with bowed heads we adore the
new born.
The day is one of mu,h rejoicing
and no one seems it fitting or proper
at tall unless some feast making is car
ried on. The individual of wealth
Will sit at the head Of heavily laden
board OF substantials and delicacles,
and, we can well say in many instan-
ces, will not for a moment cast his
eye over the magnificent spread. of
luxuries he is so kindly provided to
afford and reflect of the poor--the
poor who the dear Lord himself said
we would always have with us. For a
merry Christmas iD every sense Of the
worl 1t is very essential that we
should subject ourselves TO render
assistance and make the day one of
equal joy and happiness to others
more needy than ourselves. The
heart, the seat of our joys, cannot be
merry il selfish; IL must be generous
and ever really to give joy as well as
receive. ''He who giveth Ito the
poor lendeth TO the Lord" l
To one and all, and IN particular
TO our readers, The Echo wishes a
merry Christmas.

Will Support the President.

Senator Frye's furious attack on
Commissioner Blount, and his charge
that there IS not word OF truth in
his report, served the purposes of
political buncombe, but failed en-
tirely to prove that ex-Minister Stev-
ems was not rascal whose connec-
tions with a very corrupt plot has
been thoroughly exposed. The re-
ply of Senator Vest TO the speech of
Mr.. Frye was enjoyable because he
pounded the jingoism Of the Repub-
licans in such lusty way that he
will be applauded by the good sense
of the country. The able and Wig
orous defense Of the policy Of the
administration, which was the strik-
ing feature of the speech of the Mis-
souri, Senator, shows very clearly
that while some of the Democratic
members of the Senate dlffer with
President Cleveland on the silver
question, all Of them, with the possi-
BILE exception of Senators Morgan
and Pugh, are going to support him
in his Hawaiian and tariff policy,
and other measures which he may
hereafter bring to the attention of
Congress. o. States.

Christmas Giving.

The following from Philadelphia
paper is full Of truth:
"You know, and / know, that to
thousands of us Christmas has be-
come a season of the year the COM
ing of which we actually dread.
Years ago our forefathers looked for
ward to itwith delight. They thought
of it months before. We do, too,
only in different spirit. Our main
idea of the. coming Of Christmas now
adays seems to be what it is going to
cost us. Christmas-givlng, once
regulated Ivy the heart, is in great
danger of being very soon almost
entirely regulated by the means-i,'
it has not already reached that de-
plorable state. We have made an
actual business of Christmas giving.
Formerly it was considered a pleas
uro 70 give now we SIT down and
think out our presents as matter of
duty. We have to give; we consid-
er it an obligation to give so-and so
present at Christmas. Not that
we want to do so; we simply feel
that we must. f'She will give me
something, and, Of course, 1 must
give her something" Is the way we
calculate the matter. And then
when we receive the present the first
thought, in nine cases out Of ten, is
whether We have received as much as
we gave. II we have not we feel
provoked at our own generosity, and
coolly make a mental conclusion that
next year we will give less."

Beet Sugar.

We see from the papers that Mr..
A. II. George, of Lefore county,
son of Senator George, and one of
our most successful and wide awake
Delta planters, has been out west
making study of the beet-sugar
industry, with a view to introducing
it into Mississippi. When such men
as Mr.. George, Delta cotton plan
ter for years, begins to seriously
consider the practlcablity OF diver
sIfied farming, we may look for a
new era ia agricultural matters.
The beet sugar industry is a success
in the Western States, and it is to be
hoped that Mr.. George is sufficiently
encouraged in his investigation to
give it a trial. We see no reason
why it should not be as successful
ly conducted in this State as in the
Western States.

ismuch longer than at first reported.

Stevens assisted in and really made
the change possible. The President
says there is nothing to show that
the people of Hawaii want a change.
The President excorIates Harrison
and Blaine for undue haste. and
says he has nothing new to report Of
the situation in Hawaii, but lntimaGes
that he instructed Willis TO restore
the Queen in peaceful way.
