The Federal Election Laws.

1t is to be hoped that the unanimous
| vote of the Democrats of the house tc
repeal the federal election laws will
not cause the Courier Journal to leave
the party. The fact that our contem'
porary's anxiety for the unconditional
repeal of the Sherman law has closed
its eyes to the fact that Democratic
legislation must 60 on, Sherman law
or no Sherman law, is to be regretted,
of course, but it is not important enough
to prevent the Democrats of the house
from taking advantage. of an interlude
between financial and tariff legislation.
It is curious fact that the Courier
Journal, Democratic, and the New
York Tribune, Republican, are the on
ly newspapers of large influence that
have opposed the repeal of the federal
election laws. The Courier-Journal
opposes their repeal at this time be-
cause it has somehow got the idea that
the repeal of these laws will stand in
the way of the unconditional repeal OF
the Sherman law. just how this is to
happen, the Courier Journal does not
say, but it seems to have a vague idea
that if, for any reason, party lines are
drawn in the senate the unconditional
repeal of the Sherman law will be de-
feated.
1t is a very queer situation if the
attitude of the Courier-Journal is to be
taken as an Interpretation it. If the
Democrats undertake to carry out
legislation on the line of their platform
the fear is that the Republicans will
cease to favor unconditional repeal.
But we think the Courier-Journal
may give wings to its fear and let it fly
away. The Republicans are not to be
driven away from the support of un-
conditional repeal by any considera-
ton. 1t is, in fact, the Republican
policy pure and simple, Uncondition-
al repeal will demonetize silver and re-
store the act of 1891, and this is what
the Republicans are pledged to do.
They will stick to this policy, therefore,
through thick and thin. They can al
ways be depended on to vote for a
measure which reverses the whole
Democratic policy and revives the act
of 1S73.-Atlanta Constitution.

the town is dominated by gamblers and

the De Soto Gazette says of the situation.

down in Scott county:
The gambling dens-a pistol bullet

These be the trophies of your inertness,

The above apostrophe refers. we
presume. to the lamentabie suicide of
young Irwin, of Festus, one of the best
beloved of Jefferson county's citizens,
but, alas, a gambler. And Bro. Flynn
may well exclaim against the incrtness
of his fellow citizens. De Soto is a
hot-bed of gambling dens, its principal
hotel is run by dago who is perpetu-
ally under indictment for keeping a
gambling hell land its present Recorder
or police judge is or was recently under
Indictment for gambling. What but
inertness can be expected of that gen
tleman when gamblers are arraigned
before him? A stranger in De Soto
with money will be offered an oppor-
tunity to get rid of it ere he has eaten his
second meal. The mayor seems to be
earnest in his efforts to eradicate the
evil, and it is to be hoped that the de-
plored death of James Irwin will arouse
a more healthy public sentiment
against it.-Scott County NeUsboy.

there is ''a lack of onfi lence." When
business man takes United States
bond or other gilt-edged security to the
banks and fails to raise money on it,
we think there is very serious slack
of confidence"
What do the banks gain by showing
a lack of confidence in the very people
who are trusting them? Confidence
that is worth thirp must be mutual.
The people have shown the greatest
confidence in the banks by depositing
their money. and it would seem to be
only fair for the banks to show little
confidence in people who go to them
with gilt-edged collateral.

THEY say Van Allen never voted until

as he has no political convictions he is

TO DEVELOP THE PALMETTO.

A Company Organized TO Manufacture
and Util 70 It's Products.
The Palmetto Manufacturing Com pany
has been organized and the following off,
GERS elected:
PresIdent-G. W. Lamar.
Vice Presdent-W. G. Morrel.
Secretary and Treasurer-A Minis.
Directors-G. w. Lamar, w. q. Morrel,
A. Minis, j. w. Preston, r. s. Nell and G.
b. Warrand
The company owns the Warrand patents
for tanning with palmetto and to manu-
facture various products from tho residue
after extracting the tannin.
The Pooler tanuery has for some time
used palmetto quite successfully and is pro.
ducing excellent leather.
Several tannreries in the vicinity OF Sa-
vannah are projected, amongst others one at
Blooningdale and another one at NARROW.
These places have an abundance of palmetto
within easy reach.
Efforts are being made to start large
establishment in Savannah to manufacture
also condensed extract OF palmetto, which
can be shipped and exported. ALI tanning
extracts bring good price and are readily
sold, as the supply of oak bark is getting
smaller every day. The time seems to be
| near at hand when the millions of acres Of
palmetto will become of much value.
There seems TO be no reason why the
| south cannot successfully compete with sny
part Of the United States in producing
leather Everything is in its favor; cheap
raw hides, good climate the year around,
cheap labor. a tanning material costing less
than one-fifth of oak bark and a great home
market at good prices will necessarily make
tanning profitable business.
Shoe factories, harness and trunk factor
les will soon come into existence if they are
once assured good supply Of leather, giving
employment to hundreds Of people.
The gentlemen who have the management
| OF the affairs of the Palmetto company are
| well-known business men, who will do all
in their power TO encourage and develop
| this new industry.
