The Redwine Case.

The outcome of the Redwine case is not
entirely satisfactory to the Atlanta pub
lie. There was at no time any doubt of
Redwine's guilt, and therefore the verdict
against him was not a surprise. What
the public wanted to know was what be-
came of the money that was taken from
the bank. OF the stolen money $40, 900 is
unaccounted for. What became of it? 1t is
true that in his confession before
the trial Redwine gave an ex-
PLANTATION of what became of the
missing money, but this explanation
does not seem to be entirely satisfactory.
He was not permitted to tell his story
upon the witness stand. Had he been
subjected to a cross examination he might
not have been able to sustain his explana-
tiop.
Redwine's first great mistake was in
living beyond his means. Had he been
content to live within his income he
might now be an honored man in re-
sponsible position instead of convict.
Among the set of young men with whom he
associated he wanted to create the impress
sion that he was liberal, and to accom-
The circle of society in which he moved
did not require that he should be ex-
travagant in his expenditures, and he
would have been as much respected if he
had been willing to appear to be just
what he was, namely, bank employee re-
ceiving salary of 81 800 year. Like
too many other young men to be found in
all cities, he lacked strength of character
to stand before the public in his true
colors The consequence was he got in
debt, and debt led to dishonesty. No
doubt he meant to be an honest man
when he began his career in Atlanta, and
perhaps was ambitious to be a successful
one. He was not naturally bad. He was
simply weak and fell, as hundreds of
others have fallen, in trying to cut too
wide swath in social life. Almost every
day there is an account in the newspa-
| pers of the downfall of a trusted employe
of some bank or business house, and in
almost every instance the cause of the
downfall is extravaganza in social mat
| tiers.

lived like millionaire, and people took
him at what he appeared to be worth.
But unless some other evidences Of wealth
besides those which have been recorded

the late mayor will have to be written
down as comparatively poor man instead

to bring about the denomination of the

Ireland in 1893.

During the year recently ended there
was in Ireland, comparatively speaking
but little political agitation. About the
time of Parnell's fall the partisan strife
had reached its climax at the time of Par
nell's death the reflex action had set in ;
since that time the cooling process has
gone on until the country is now quiet.
Not that the friends of Ireland have let
up one iota in their purposes, or that they
are disheartened by the death of the
home rule bill at the hand of the lords;
there has been merely a cessation of
demonstrative meetings, hot quarrels and
bloody fights The people, while keep
ing their faith, have paid more attention
to their industries. The result, according
to the London Times, is that the year
past was one of the most peaceful and
prosperous of this century in Ireland.
The agricultural season was the best
since 1926, and not since that year have
the people been freer from dis
tress than the current New Year
found them. The area of farms
under cultivation last year was not
so large as the year before, yet the har-
vest was more bountiful. No drought
blighted the crops, the yield of each crop
was full, and the potatoes wereall housed
in excellent condition. The splendid crops
and the improved prospect has had a
tendency to disgust the poorer classes
with agitation.
The Times adds that there are many
signs of the material and moral lettering
of the people, Rents have been paid moro
punctually, and manufacturing industries
find the prospects encouraging. The
linen industry in the north of Irelsnd has
been hurt by the American tariff, but
ship-building and the other trades are
brisk at Belfast. The strikes and general
depression in England reacted upon Ire
land, but, thanks to the excellent crop
season, Ireland was not seriously affected.
AT the commercial centers there has been
no extraordinary increase in the volume
of trade, though credit has been main
tanned. and trade has been sound and
steady. In the agricultural districts there
will this year be experienced some diff
Guilty in obtaining laborers for the fields,
cheap foreign products increasing the
tendency to abandon tillage

What a First-ClaSs Barn Is.

Ex-Vice President Morton has re-
stored the barn on his Rhinebeck
farm, that was burned last summer.
The New York Herald says oft: The
building is 800 feet long, 65 fest wide,
and where the silos are located 80
feet wide. The latest improvements
have been introduced in the building,
snd no expense has been spared to
make it model barn and one of the
finest in this country
Railroad tracks for cars to carry
feed run around the interior of the
barn; there are blinds on every win
dow, so arranged as to act as avn
ings to keep the heat out in summer.
The area walls outside of the build
ing have a six inch blue stone coping,
with an iron railing five feet high.
The basement is of concrete five feet
thick, with a cross brick wall with
chestnut sleepers to rest upon and
drainage under the whole.
The basement under the l., which is
40 by so feet in size, is fitted up AS a
root cellar. The silos are three in
number and hold fifteen hundred
tons.
The stalls in the barn are provided
with fire escape fasteners, so that
any one of them can be opened at
once. Three hundred thermostats
are placed in the barn to give an
alarm in case of fire. They tell what
part of the building is on fire and are
connected with the farm house and
Office.
The barn is lighted by incandescent
lights. The latest improved machin
cry is provided for grinding feed, etc.
including powerful engine

the open victoria in which she rides
when it is fair have been bought with
funds that properly belong to the

lucky steed driven by the secretary's
son has been bought by the same
means, and is maintained at the pub

and thoroughly competent Republi
cans in the clerical service of the gov

and their places filled by incompetent,
and often dissipated, youths from the
South. That Hoke Smith, so jealous
for retrenchment in the pay of pen
sioners, has foisted his negro cooks
husband upon the pay rolls, and that,
generally speaking, there is chaos
of profigacy of expenditure, misuse
OF public money, and administrative
incompetency.
Parts of The Chicago Record s story
of mismanagement are confirmed by
the correspondent of The New York
Times, which also is an anti-Republi-
can journal, and which until lately
was the loudest and cearest singerin
