A Detroiter who was over on the west shore
of Lake Michigan last week, says the Free
Press, wanted to post himself on the fruit

Gaston's Story.

We have contended all along that the
sugar scandal stories that were published
in republican papers for the purpose ap-
parently of bringing democratic senator's
into disrepute were manufactured out of
rumors that were set afoat by ire
sponsible scandal mOugers in Washington.
1t was asserted that the story that APP
peared in the New York Mail and EX-
press was based on statements made by
Walter Castor, wire manufacturer of
New Jersey. who occupied a room at the
Arlington hotel next that of MIR. Terrell,
an agent of the sugar trust. In the Mail
and Express article it was alleged that
MIR. CASTOR overheard a conversation be-
tween Mr.. Terrell and several democratic
senators relative to the sugar schedule,
the purport Of the conversation being
given in the article.
In our dispatches yesterday the testi-
mony of Castor before the investigating
committee was published. When the
article of the Mail and Express was read
to him be said that, with the exception
of the fact that he was in the room in
the Arlington hotel and overheard a CON
versation on sugar, and that he told a
congressman in confidence that from
what he heard he did not believe the
tariff bill would pass. the article was alb
solutely manufactured out of whole
cloth, and was false from beginning to
end.
The republicans insisted upon having
the sugar scandal investigated. They
thought they would find something out
Of which they could make political CAPT
tai. Their disappointment must be great
since they have not yet found anything
which shows corrupt bargain, or even an
understanding of any kind between the
democratic senators and the sugar trust.
All the time the sugar question has
been under consideration the republican
senators have shown a singular slipperi-
ness. When it was charged that their
party had played into the hands of the
sugar trust while the Mckinley bill was
under discussion they denied it. When
it was pointed out that under the infiu-
ence of the trust they advanced the duty
on refined sugar from 16 to 40 cents
hundred pounds on the night before the
Mckinley bill was reported to the House,
they asserted the trust was not in exist
ence at that time, and that there
were no sugar certificates for
sale at the time. And yet
only a few days before these denials were
made Senator Sherman had stated on the
floor of the Senate that the sugar trust
was formed three years before the
Mckinley bill was framed, and it is a
matter of record that the manipulation
Of the sugar schedule the night before
the Mckinley bill was reported to the
House sent sugar stock up S31 a share.
Is it not remarkable that senators who
have regulations at stake should make
such untruthful statements on the floor
Of the Senator As matterof fact, when
the Mckinley bill was before congress
there were the same sort of scandals rela-
tive to speculations in sugar as the re-
publican papers are publishing now. Re
publican legislation made the sugar trust
what it is-a grasping monopoly-and the
Republican party would continue to favor
it if it were in its power to do so.

Standing by the Administration.

The very emphatic Endorsement which
the Cleveland administration is receiving
| in all parts of the state is as gratifying
! to genuine democrats as il is surprising
1 10 those few members of the Democratic
/ party who have endeavored TO bring it
into disrepute by alleging that it is con-
trolled by Wall street influences. The
great majority of the people of Georgia
know that there has never been mo-
ment since Mr.. Cleveland entered the
white house that he has not depended
upon the common people, and been
guided by what he believes to be for their
best interests. The suverites have
striven to create the impression that he
is gold-bug, and that he is in sympathy
with what they are pleased TO
call the money power, but they have ut
terly failed. The hold which Mr. Cleve-
land has upon the hearts of the masses is
as strong as it ever was, and the demo-
Gratis of Georgia do not intend to permit
the leader Of their party to be condemned
by those VINO think they can the more
easily gain their object by destroying the
confidence Of the people in him.
In the matter of silver Mr.. Cleveland
stands squarely on the national demo-
cratic platform. He would not oppose any
plan providing for the free coinage Of
silver that would keep silver currency on
a parity with gold currency. In other
words, he is in favor of sound money.
If he can prevent it the people
shall not have thrust upon them a silver
currency that would not be worth moro
than 80 cents on the dollar. A currency
of that kind would work almost incalcu-
liable evil to the farmers, and wage earners
of all classes.
Many Of those who have been in favor
of the free coinage of silvera at the present
ratio of 10 TO ! have been led to believe
that the silver dollar would circulate on
parity with the gold dollar They are
now being convinced that such would not
be the case, but that the silver dollar
would drop at once to its intrinsic value,
just as it has done in Mexico
and the South American states.
The Georgia editors who recently
visited Mexico discovered what the
free coinage of silver means,
and it IS pretty safe to say that most of
them who visited that country with free
silver coinage notions returned home sat
isfed that it is much the wiser and safer
plan to stand by the sound money policy
OF the Cleveland admjnistra ton.
That the democracy of Georgia is with
Mr.. Cleyeland's administration there is
no longer a shadow of doubt. Above
and beyond the money question they
know that to condemn the head of the
party means dissensions and divisions in
the ranks of the democracy. They IN
derstand that united party is necessary
to fight successfully the enemies of democ-
racy, and united party they intend to
have.

The roy who gone away,

He spilled water on the floors,

Till he returns we have no heart,
No spirit, strength or will
To do our daily labors
We can neither work nor play.

A novel educational enterprise has
been arranged by the school authorities
of Anderson. Ind The children of the
public schools of that town between the
ages of Il and Is, inclusive, will be taken
on a tour to Washington and back. The
party will stop at various cities and else
where, and study mountain formations,
coal deposits. tne coking process, iron de-
posits. iron and steel manufacturing, and
other matters. They will study our
legislative system at the capital will
pay a visit to the Senate and then go
down to Old Point Comfort and see how
the ocean rolls and froths. The pupils
will be under the charge of their teach
ers. whose salaries will go on the same
as if they were at home teaching. The
idea is a broad and liberal one, and will
present to the young people object lessons
that will teach them more Of practical
knowledge than they could learn at home
in the school room from months Of hard
study. II will afford them d pleasant
and healthful outing and the impressions
received win be lasting The experiment
is worthy Of emulation wherever the cir
cumstances will permit.

meager information about the little dots

islands were used INTERCHANGEABLE in the
dispatches, making it appear that under
whatever name the island might be seized
by either party, the rights OF this gov

light Of late information, however. it APP

The House committee investigating the
alleged armor plate frauds had before it
the other day, in the person OF Lieut..
Cowles, a witness who made some aston
ishing statements. He was the first in
spector at the Carnegie works and served
until last September. To a question
about the size of the blowholes in some of
the armor, the lieutenant replied, about
the largest hole was as big as the top of
that clock on the mantel, pointing to a
French time-picee at least g inches in
diameter That particular hole, the wit
ness went on to say, occurred in a plate
on the Montereys side armor, just below
the water line-which is considered a
vital spot. He further stated that it was
plugged up by order of the navy depart
ment, as the ordnance bureau was in
hurry to get the ship ready for sea" If
the government were buying armor like
one buys cheese, by weight, the holes
would make very little difference; but
the plates are bought by quality, and for
protection. The armor scandal now under
investigation threatens to become about
as pungent as cheese-ancient Lin berger,
at that.
