been confined In the Mclean asylum for
the insane since 1870. and who IL petition.
ing the court, through his next friend, for
liberty, was resumed yesterday In the
United States circuit court After some
argument by Hon. Edward Avery for the
petitioner and Hon. George O. Shattuck
for the asylum, the court appointed1 Hon.
John s. II. French OF Portsmouth,, n. H.,
guardian sd interim Of the alleged luna
tic, with instructions TO investigate the
allegation of both sides, and report at a

the guardian the right TO visit, together
with Lawyer Avery, the petitioner at the
asylum at any time, and restrains the Off
cials OF the institution or their representa-

such vista
In answer 10 the return of the officials,
the writ OF habeas corpus recently served
on them commanding them to produce
the body OF the millionaire In court, in
which they replied that he was in .
mental aud physical state to preclude his
appearance, counsel for King denied
that the petitioner was violently insane,
or that he was legally held under the
statutes Of Massachusetts, and denied
the potency OF the recent decisions of the
supreme judicial court OF the state In the
matter to debsr the present inquiry.
Attorney Avery made che motion for
the appointment OF the guardian ad in
terim. All parties agreed to the plan and
the court adjourned until mex: Tuesday.
In the meantime various attorneys will
busy themselves In Rhode Island and

Opening of the Public Schools.

/ Isn't October rather late for opening
the public schools in this cityl Are the
public schools Of any other city opened so
laUel
We haven't looked up the dates Of the
opening Of the schools in the different
cities, but we are inclined to think that at
the north the average date of opening is
4 Septem Der /, and in the south about Sep
/ TEN Der 10. The schools of New Orleans
| opened this year on September II.
| There is no good reason, as far as we
can see, why the schools in this city
should not be opened as early as they are
in New Orleans. 1t may be said that
families that go away for the summer
do not return before Oct. l. The per-
centage Of those who return by Sept. Is
is as great here as it is in New Orleans.
1t is probably greater, since summer
weather does not continue as late here as
it Goes in that city.
The number of families that go away
for the summer is small, however, in com
parison with the number that remains
throughout the year, and the opening of
the schools should not be controlled by
those that go away The int rest of the
greatest number should be the controlling
interest. 1t is pretty safe to say that
the great majority of the patrons Of the
schools would like to have their children
begin school by the first, or at least by
the middle Of September.
If the schools were opened in the mid
die of September, families that go away
during the warm season would return
sooner than they do. There is no good
reason why they shouldn't. With good
water and steadily improving drainage
the health conditions are as good as those
of any other city in the country.
The fact is a very large number of Sa.
vannah people spend too much of the
year away from the city. They still
cling to a practice that was inaugurated
years ago, when the city was not as
healthy in the summer as it is now Since
there has been so great an improvement
in the healthfulness of the city should
there not be reform in this practicel
The retail merchants complain, and
justly, that the remaining away of so
many people until late in the fall Injuries
their business. Business with them does
not fairly begin until the absentees re-
turn and the schools are opened. 1t may
seem rather strange that so small part
of the population as the absentees are
should affect business, but it doubtless
does. The return of the people who
spend the summer out of the city and the
opening of the schools mark tie begin
ming of the business season with the re.
tail merchants.
The school board should take up this
matter and give it the consideration il
deserves. 1t is of more Importance than
the board may now think it is.

A New TrottinR Record.

Two years ago on the track at Terre
Haute, Ind, Nancy Hanks made herself
famous by cutting the worlds trotting
record to 2:04. On the second anniver-
sary of the event little bay mare named
AliX, on the sane track, equaled that
record. A few days latter-on Wednes-
day, Sept. 19-on the track at Galesburg,
Ill, the little bay mare trotted the mile
in 2:03%. Thus, Nancy Hanks, queen Of
the turf for two years, has been deposed
from her proud position, and succeeded
by rival of more beauty of outline and
euphony of cognomen. The new queen is
years old, and her lucky owner is Mr.
Monroe Salisbury.
Shortly after Nancy Hanks made her
wonderful mile, Mr.. Robert Bonner, the
owner of Dexter, Maud S., and other
famous horses, expressed the opinion
that the day was not far distant when
horse would be bred that would trot a
mile in two minutes. There are horse
men who believe that the limit of speed
has about been reached, and that to
shave the odd seconds off the record in
trotting mile is an impossibility to
horsehesh. There are others, Mr. Bon
ner among them, who think the limit has
not yet been reached and the highest
type of trotter has not yet been produced.
Before the war, when racing was 1.-The
gentleman's sport" north and south, a
horse that could trot mile in 2:40 was
considered very fast, while one that could
clip ten seconds off that figure was won
der. During the war, and for several
years thereafter, horse racing and the
breeding of horses for the track were sus-
pended. Since the revival of the sport
and the business, careful breeding and
training have produced any number of
horses that can cut a quarter of minute
off of the old 2 80 records, and at least one
that can make the mile in 2:03% In
years past the record has been cut down
by seconds. Hereafter it will be reduced
by fractions of a second, if at all. The
two-minute horse is the ideal of turfmen.
If they ever produce him, he will be a
wonder of muscle and nervousness

A Big Majority Predicted.

The managers Of the democratic cam
paign in this state are now in position tc
speak with confidence as to the result Of
the election which takes place next week
They are very well satisfied with the
prospects Of the democracy. They are
more than satisfied. They are Jubilant
because they see signs of a much bigger
ma ority than they expected when the
/ campaign began.
From all parts Of the state the most en-
/ couraging reports are received. The
| democrats are aroused. They attend the
public meetings by the thousand, and
show a profound interest in the
] discussions of public questions. The cam
paign speakers say that it has been years
since the people have taken so much in
terest in a political campaign. There
seems to be a determination on the part
of the democrats to bury populism so deep
beneath democratic ballots that nothing
more will be heard Of it IN Georgia.
The campaign thus far has been very
well managed The speakers have been
men of acknowledged ability. Hence,
they have drawn the people to the meet
ings and have interested them by intelli-
gent talks about matters in which they
are deeply interested.
The campaign has been greatly helped
by the fact that there are several candi-
dates for senator. These candidates,
while pleading their own causes, have
done good work for the democracy. Be
ing men of acknowledged ability they
have taken much broader view of the
issues than is taken by the average cam
paign speaker.
The populist campaign managers have
seemed to realize that they have uphill
work. They have declined joint debates
for the reason probably that they
know they cannot successfully
defend their demands Despairing
of making converts among the whites,
they have turned their attention to the
blacks. They hope, apparently, to make
a respectable showing of votes by winning
the black votes. With the blacks, how
ever, they are not making much progress.
They make them promises which the
blacks know are impossible of fulfllment.
The number of blacks who will vote with
the populisCs will not be large. They are
well aware of the fact that the pOpulists
have no sympathy with them, and that in
seeking their votes they have but one OBJ
ject in view, and that is to get control of
the state government.
Only little more than week of the
campaign remains. That is time enough,
however, to do good deal of elective
work, and that kind of work will be
done. Chairman Clay is putting every
available campaigner into the field.
There will be many more grand rallies
before election day, moth withstanding
that that day is close at hand. Now is
the time for every active democrat to do
little missionary work. There are a
great many lukewarm democrats in each
community. They should be persuaded
that their votes are needed, and that
it is their duty to vote. BY work of
that kind great many votes can be
gained for the democratic ticket Let us
give democracy a ma loriJy in this state
that will be felt at the congressional
elections in every other state.

Judge Frederic Speed of Vicksburg,
Miss, is an ex-union soldier; nevertheless
he is very much incensed because the fed
e-al government some days ago issued
warrants for the arrest of Gov. Stone in
connection with the state treasury war
rants matter Writing on the subject
Judge Speed says: you southern soldiers
got too much Of your state rights doctrine
whipped out of you by the war, when you
can contemplate with equanimity the in
generation of the executive department
of state for carving into effect law of
that state" Commenting upon the
judges outbreak the Vicksburg CONNER
cial Herald maintains that the action OF
the state authorities in issuing the war
rants was a clear violation Of a federal
law, and a federal law that ought to be
sustained, and concluding IL says: "We
believe in national money, and want no
state warrant make-shifts." The New
York Post regards these expressions as
constituting an odd feature Of the contro-
versy over the warrants, making as they
do the ex-union soldier a defender Of state
rights and the southern paper a defender
OF federal authority.
