festlv absurd, as the cheapest coal the
city ever burned was that from lone in
lo9O-9l, which cost 4.50O.
Lone coal has a record of pumping q
million gallons for s. 20, which il kept up
Tor year. Franklin has a record of 81 SO,
which 1t kept up for day. The apparent
difference Is Is per cent. IN favor of
Franklin. 1t is asserted that Franklin
cannot be expected TO live up to its test
showing, owing to possible change in
conditions not existing at the time of the
test. If this be so then the same would
be true in regard to comparison with
lone, and the difference in performance
OF 10 per cent would disappear. If, how
ever, Franklin cannot keep up the show
Ing OF 90 per cent. improvement over
Seattle, especially when the Superintend-
ent himself declares that the plant is in
better shape than ever before for making
a true showing, then
WHAT IS THE VALUE OF THE FIGURES
Secured in a enty-four-hours' test !?
When L say that the test showing for
Franklin is preposterously high, offer
this proof 1t was reported by the Su-
perintendent of the Water Works in
May, 1892, that Seattle would pump a
million gallons of water for Sc 81. The
Franklin of two weeks ago showed per-
formance of 81 36. In other words, ac-
cording to these figures, Franklin coal is
beaten II per cent. by Seattle coal, which
is supposed to be inferior, and yet your
honorable board is now asked A per
cent. more, pound for pound, for Frank
lin than it has heretofore paid for what is
considered an inferior article.
Let US sum up the points enumerated
that the facts may be made perfectly
clear:
Franklin coal beat the performance of
Australian coal 2 per cent, and yet the
Government considers Australian coal
the superior article by Il per cent.
The Government considers Franklin
coal superior to Seattle coal by only per
cent, and the BID for Franklin coal is Al
per cent above the price paid for Seattle
coal last year.
There is on file record of Seattle coal
having pumped 100000 gallons of water
for 81 ". This is IL per cent. better than
the showing OF Franklin. Making due
allowance for the fact that this was only
an eight-hOur test, the performance is
much better than the performance of
Franklin, and yet the city is asked to pay
II per cent. more for Franklin than it
paid last year for Seattle.
In the year ending April, 1892, Seattle
had record Of pumping l,000,000 gallons
for IS 81. Franklin's record OF 81 50 for
day is only 20 per cent. better than this.
and yet the bid for Franklin now under
discussion is "A per cent. higher than last
years price for Seattle.

The Clarion Ledger says Congress
man Hooker has returned home, and
is suffering from the effects of severe
and prolonged attack of chills and fe-
yer. 1t also says "he is decidedly of
the opinion that Wall street and Lon
don have won great victory in Con
gress, and does not think there is much
in sight, in the near future, for silver"
and. like most of his constituents he
cannot see that there is anything good
in the situation" When the eloquent
statesman, with the "silver tongue
begins to circulate around for rc-elec-
ton. about the first thing in order will
be for him to explain to the people
how it is that Mr.. Cleveland doesn't
make the grand President Col. Hooker

it comes about that the Democratic
party that was going to do such Won
ders, if placed in power, happens to be
bossed by Wall street and London.

Rev. w. G. Black, ID. d., who was
transferred from the Mississippi to the
Georgia Conference a year ago, and be-
came pastor of the Mulberry Street
Methodist Church in Macon, has as
sumed editorial control of the New Or
leans Christian Advocate, to which po-
sition he was recently elected. The
last Advocate contained the Doctors
salutatory, a we'll written document
which evidences that he has entered
upon the duties of his new position
with due appreciation of its grave re-
sponsibilities. DR.. Black is one of the
very ablest men in all Southern Meth
odism. He is deep thinker with a
strong, analytical mind, who possesses
the happy faculty of clothing and pre-
senting his thoughts in the most attrac-
tive and fascinating rhetoric. We
predict that under his administration
the Advocate will enter upon a new
era of prosperity and usefulness. So
may it be.

THE WHITE CAP CASES.

There is a general feeling of relief
that the White Cap cases in this coun-
ty have been disposed of There is
some difference of opinion as to wheth-
er Judge Chrisman should not have
dealt more severely than he did with
the men who took part in the mob, es-
pecially the leaders, but the great ma
iority believe the court has done what
was wisest and best, in view of all the
facts. Certain it is, if the clemency OF
the court is received and appreciated
by the offenders in the way it should
be-that is, as desire ON his part to
redeem them to their families and
good citizenship, rather than admins
ter harsh and unnecessary punishment
the policy he has pursued will in
deed prove the wisest.
TAE LEADER publishes in it's adver-
Using columns today the formal petition
to be presented to the Governor for the
pardon of the men sentenced to the
penitentiary at the last term Of the
court. This petition is signed by over
seven hundred rersons,' embracing all
classes of our citizens, and THE LEAD
Err believes it correctly sets forth the
facts. When it reaches the Governor
we sincerely hope he will see fit to grant
it, and that, profiting by the dear ex-
perience Lincoln county has had, White
Cap lawlessness and White Cap agita-
tion will be forever thing of the past
in this section.

SUPREME COURT DECIS-
IONS.

There is no inherent right in a
citizen to sell Intoxicating liquors
by retail; it is not privilege Of
a citizen of a State or of Il citizen
of the United States. AS it is a
business attended with danger to
the community, it may, as already
said, be entirely prohibited or be
permitted under such conditions
as will limit to the utmost its
evils. California vs.. Christensen.
No Legislature can bargain
away the public health or public
morals. The people themselves
cannot do it, much less their ser
wants. Government is organized
with view to their preservation,
and cannot divest itself of the
power to provide for them. -
Stone VS.. Mississippi.
For we cannot shut out of view
the fact, within the knowledge of
all, that the public health. the
public morals and the public safe
ty may be endangered by the gen
eral use of intoxicating drinks:
nor the fact, established by sta
tistics accessible to every one.
that the disorder, pauperism, and
crime prevalent in the country
are, in some degree at least, trace
able to this evil. Mugler vs..
Kansas.
The injury, it is true, falls up
on him in his health, which the
habit undermines; in his morals
which it weakens; in his self
abasement which it creates. But
as it leads to neglect of business
and waste of property and gen
cral Generalization, it affects
those who are Immediately con-
nected with and dependent upon
him. BY the general concur
renee of opinion of every civil
lied and Christian community
there are few sources of crime
and misery to society equal to the
dramshop. California VS.. Christ

it, and that the ministry speak with no

SENATOR MILLS MAD.
The Traitor Fails to Receive the Price of
His Treachery.


His Treacherv.
Senator Mills, of Texas, lost his tenn
per in Private Secretary Thurbers
room at the White House, says Wash
ington dispatch, and in a few heated
remarks scored the administration.
The Senator from Texas desired the
appointment of constituent named
Throckmorton as commissioner to
treat with the five civilized tribes re-
garding a boundary line.
President Cleveland, however, declin-
ed to appoint Mills man and named
ex-senator Dawes for the place.
Dawes is a Republican, and for many
years was chairman of the Senate COM
mittee of Indian affairs.
This turn of affairs was extremely
annoying to Mr.. Mills, and he spoke
very plainly to Thurber.
The Texan said that he had come to
the Senate representing United De
mocracy, and that he had been prevail
ed upon to act with the administration
on the silver question, thereby gaining
the ill will of fully two-thirds of the
papers in his State. He intimated that
his fences had been sadly disarranged
by his course, and that unless some
patronage was speedily given him, the
State would go Populist next election.
Mr.. Thurber said: flush, tush! Sen.
ator, you can fix that all right when
you take the stump"
"By CAD, want you to understand,
replied Mills angrily, that I'm too old
to go upon the stump to correct the
evils the course of the administration
is inficting on my State, and l don't
propose to do itn'
Mr.. Thurber tried to pacify Mr.. Mills
but the Texan refused to be notified
and left the White House in very ug-
ly mood.
