AND now TO BUSINESS.

AND now TO BUSINESS.
Now that the new administration has
been inaugurated, the country might set
tie down to business and let politics
alone for awhile. For the last two years
the people in many of the states have
been on political spree. In their anx-
iety to carry certain ideas triumphantly
through the campaign, they have at
times left work for the hustiugs. Such
a poll ical ferment has not been seen for
years. 1t had its course and happily it
has its results. One of them is the trl-
umph of tariff reform over the fatal de-
fusion of protection. Whatever we've
orr hopes and desires, we have done
about all we can for four years. The
peopie have given their verdict and it re-
mains for congress and the president to
carry out the details. The country at
large will have an opportunity to turn
its attention wholly to business, with the
satisfaction of knowing that the public
business is in safe hands. If we can now
as a people give to business the attention
and the unfagging zeal which we have
g1vefa to politics, and era of prosperity is
ahead. We have been saying the coun-
try and we have made good job of 1t.
Now let us save ourselves.

thugs" The Constitution ought to call
a convention of Henry Jones, Larry
CAN'T and Lon Livingston and demand
the resignation of Mr.. Cleveland before
ne gets the seat warm he took by the call
of the American people.
THK legislature, at its next session,
should appropriate few dollars for the
purchase of a state flag, to be carried
around with the governor on military
occasions. Otherwise the feelings be-
tween the Governors Horse Guards,
sometimes called the ''critter company
and the Georgia Hussars may grow
blood thirsty.
THE cotton convention in Texas last
week recommended a reduction of the
cotton acreage. If it had appointed a
"a zrlnnlttee to take each individual farm
er of to himself and read its resolutions
to him. possibly the recommendation
might have some little effect, provided
She comm ttee got around in time.
