An Exposition Appropriation.

There is said to be good deal of oppo-
sition in the legislature to an appropria-
ton Of S25.OOO for a Georgia exhibit at the
Cotton States and International EXPOSE
ton. The basis of the opposition is that
the constitution prohibits appropriations
of that kind.
The judiciary committee of the House
has considered the constitutional objection
and has reached the conclusion that it is
not insurmountable-that, in fact, the con-
stitution does not absolutely prohibit the
appropriation. We have no doubt that the
legislature. if II makes the appropriation,
viii be sustained by the people. There is
no doubt that the appropriation should be
made. The state would expose herself to
very serious criticism if. after inviting all
the world to take part in an exposition
held under her auspices and within her
limits, she should make no exhibit herself.
An exhibit, such as she can make, and
such as she will make, with $4,000 prop
erly expended will do her a vast deal of
good. Just now there is a movement of
immigrants from the northwest to the
lated, and in no other way could it be slim
ulated to such an extent as by fine ex-
hibit Of the states resources at the cot
ton exposition.
We believe a way could have been
found to make an appropriation for a state
exhibit at the Chicago fair without a Sc
rious violation of the constitution. An ex-
hibit there would have been an investment
that would have yielded big return. The
Chicago exposition, however is a thing
of the past. We have now to deal with an
exposition of our own, and we must not
make a similar mistake in respect to it,
We must strain point if necessary to
get a construction of the constitution that
will enable the state to make as an at
tractive appearance as her sister states
at her own entertainment. She cannot
afford to be a wall flower.

Capt Kolb Of Alabama would have
stood much higher in the estimation Of his
fellow citizens II he had remained away
from Montgomery yesterday. He accom-
plished nothing by going there. and what
he did is calculated 10 make him ap-
pear ridiculous. He was treated with dis
respect bordering on contempt. When he
asked the governor whether o. not he
would be molested by the state authori-
ties if he attempted 10 make an address
10 the people in the grounds Of the capt.
tol. he was told that he would be arrested
and confined in Jail. He therefore de-
lvered his address from a wagon, in the
street And he did not have a large and
enthusiastic audience. only a COMPARE
lively few people paid any attention to
him. At the close Of his address his little
crowd dispersed. and he left the vicinity
Of the state house and disappeared from
the public view. And thus ended the at
tempt Of the defeated gubernatorial can
date Of the populists and republicans to
take possession Of the state government.
lie did nothing that anybody cares any
t-tA-AE e-----H anu nc AAA AADA NC AAA0AtSAEL
by the state authorities. The fact that
he had the oath of governor administered
TO him by a justice of the peace is a mat
ter Of no consequence. Any citizen could
have taken the oath without fear of be-
ing arrested.
Did Capt Kolb convince anybody by his
conduct yesterday that he was lawfully
elected governor? We think not. Ever
since the election he has been asserting
that Col Oates majority was made up of
fraudulent votes, but he did not present
any evidence of the truth Of his assertion.
He seems to have harbored the idea that
because he claimed TO have been elected
the people would rise in their might and
demand recount of the ballots in all
the ballot boxes of the state. They didn't
do anything Of the sort, because they were
satisfied that Col. oates had been fairly
elected, and they were entirely willing
that he should be inauguiated.
If Capt. Kolb had been able to show that
he had been legally elected the legislature
would have listened to him when it can
vassed the returns on Nov. II. 1t refused
to waste time in considering the charges
Of a defeated candidate when no evidence
in support of the charges was presented.
We do not thiRk Capt Kolb will ever
again be a candidate for governor of Ala
bama. The opponents of the Democratic
party in that state must be thoroughly
tired of him. He has been failure ever
since he started out IN cantt1re the eovern
orship, and his conduct at Montgomery
yesterday ought to be sufficient to con-
sign him 70 political obscurity.
