OUR GREAT EXPOSITION,
AtInnta's Splendid victory.

From The Columbus InQuirer-Sun.
In this year of general business depreS-
sion, of financial uncertainty, of short
receipts at the government treasury, 1t
has been a task Of herculean proportions
to get an appropriation from congress for
any but a regular and necessary purpose
The success that the piuclIy city of Allan
ia has achieved, therefore, in securing an
appropriation OF 100000 for the COTTON
States and International exposition is al
most phenomenal and reflects the highest
credit on the tireless activity and the self
sacrificing labors of the public spirited
men who engineered the movement to Its
successful termination. 1t was what might
b.: termed Il brilliant campaign and enllst-
ed the push, the nerve. the shrewdness'
the brain, and all the other live Qualities
that have made Atlanta great clty. Inc
movement III Washington for the approprl-
alton attracted national attention, and its
progress was watched everywhere with
sympathy and admiration. There was OPP
position here and there, but it was impetu-
ously overcome. Even many republican
congressman became interested in it, and
gave it their cordial support. The bill is
now ready, We believe, to so 10 the press
dent, and, with the strong endorsement
that accompanies It, he VIII doubtless give
it his approval. Atlanta deserved the APP
preparation for the splendid efforts she made
to secure it, and she viii receive congratu-
lations and good wishes for the exposition
from every quarter.

Washington, August 8.-(Special)-The

signed today at Gray Gables. President
Cleveland telcCraphed Private Secretary
Thurber this afternoon that he had signed

This is The last shake and now the appro-

governm mt building can be moved from
Chicago to Atlanta and the government can
make a magnificent exhibit at the Cotton
States exposition. With the experience
gained last year and the material displayed
at Chicago, the government authorities are
in a position to make an exhibit at Atlanta
which Will be an exposition in Itself.
Atlanta is certainly fortunate. The pluck

from all parts of this country and foreign

draw attention to the south, and in that
resnect the exposition is timely. Just now
attention is more than ever directed toward
the south. The impression among capital
lists is that the southern states offer bet

ly started in New York to encourage home
seekers to settle in the south and capital to
invest in enterprises in the southern states
is meeting with favor This movement Will

Hon William =. Harris, who has for SO
many years flied that honorable position.
Mr. Clifton served six years as MEM
her OF the house and is the most popular
young man In south Georgia, as was clear
" demonstrated by his recent remarkable
race for secretary of state, in which. after
a canvass OF only n few weeks and with
tremendous ODDS against him, having to
contend against possession, he came within
a few votes OF receIvcing the nomination at

than did Colonel Clifton. He was just
good humored after the vote was taken rs

has demonstrated his firm democratic loyal

Mr.. CliftOn's long experience in the leg
stature. where he filled many OF the u,6st
important committee positions OF the house.
and his knowledge Of the details OF legisla-
tiol will make him a formidable aspirant.

Justice White.

President Cleveland, tired of the
unequal and by no means dignified
contest with certain Senators iii not
with the Senate) and very senslbIy
concluded to abandon the attempt to
place New York man on the
Supreme Bench. The refusal of the
Senate to confirm his nominations of
Hornblowcr and Peckham, he thought
quite sufficient notice that he would
better look elsewhere for material for
a Justice of the Supreme Bench. He
therefore startled the Senate last
Monday by sending in the name of
Senator Edward d. White, of Louisi-
ana, for the high honor. The Senate
promptly and unanimously confirmed
lthe nomination.
Edward Doughlas White will take
his seat on the supreme bench as the
youngest of the justices, and with the
exception of Justices Field and Harlan
he will have entered at an earlier
period in life than any of the other
Justices, and will have the exception
ally long term of 81 years to serve
before retirement. He was. born in
the parish of La. Fourche, La. and
was 4S years of age last November.
He was educated at Mount. st. Mary's,
near Emmettsburg, Nd, at the Jesuit
college in New Orleans and finally
at Georgetown college, District of
Columbia.
He entered the Confederate Army,
and after the war, was admitted to the
bar by the Louisiana Supreme court
and practiced his profession during
the troubled years following the re-
construction period. In 1874 he
began his political experience as a
state senator; lapsing into the law
again, he became associate justice of
the supreme court OF Louisiana in
1878, but again turning to political
pursuits he was elected to the United
States senate to succeed Senator
Eustis, at present minister to France,
taking his seat March A, 1891.
The new justice is a bachelor at
present, but there is well defined ru-
NOR afioat that before the year passes
he will espouse well known society
woman, who has been a brilliant
figure in Washington.
Justice Whites only predecessor
from Louisiana on the Bench, was
John A. Campbell. who resigned at
the outbreak Of the war, and became
