II Is now in order for the self
appointed prophets who predicted
that Minister Castle would bt
turned down" by President Cleve-
land, to weep large salt tears
Their wise prophecies that Min
lister Castle or any other foreign
minister would be taken to task
for any remarks which he as a pri-
vate citizen may have made, now
shine out in all the distinguishing
colors OF first-class idiocy. We
note with pleasure however, the
gayety and promptness with which
our contemporaries announce Mr..
Castles kindly reception at the
American capitol and accept their
apologies for their lack of discre-
ton in the past. He laughs best
who laughs last.

HENRY VI. STANLEY, the explorer
having attained the object OF hi:
aspirations in politics, has identified
himself with the evangelization Of
Africa by becoming the associate
editor of Illustrated Africa, which
is published in New York. Mr..
Stanley writes Bishop Taylor, the
editor of the magazine: While /
am not thinking of making another
journey into Africa, my heart is en-
listed in the development of that
continent, a work which l can help
along much better now than if l
were on the ground. Africa is prac-
tically explored, and the intelli-
gence of its inhabitants demon
strated. / think that Africa never
will be another North American

In the midst of this era OF pro
missed decadence of religious creedsr
we find some OF the leading Prohi-
biti, nists OF the United States COM
bining to form what Is TO be known
as the Prohibition church. There
are at present six churches in the
United States founded on strictly
prohibition lines. They do not
come from the same Source-sOme
are MethodiStS, some BaptiSts ; nor
are their creeds all alike, but pro-
hibition is the sovereign point on
which they all agree. While a
prohibition clause might well be
inserted in every creed, if creeds
there must be, it is difficult 10
fathom what lasting benefit is TO be
obtained for the advance OF Chris
tianIty by increasing the labyrinth
of lines that divide the individual
peculiarities of various religious
thinkers.

natives are enthusiastic converts,

The leading democrats are watch

country becomes very prosperous

elections. The popular vote in the
States becomes more and more

would be, so far as our interests
are concerned, a desirable candi-
date. He is, however, handicap
ped in the presidential race, as he
is considered a gold bug, a million
aire, by the many sons of toll who
have votes, and, like Mr.. Depew
on the republican side he will feel
that a rich presidential candidate
will have a hard time of it. His
connection with corporations would
also weaken him to some extent.
Although his efforts have, it is gem
orally conceded, elected Mr.. Cleve-
land twice, he is not in full accord
with him. The characters of the
men are totally unlike and their
methods are unlike.
Another man who bids fair to
loom up with considerable strength
before the calling of the conven-
ton. is Adlai Stevenson, the pres
ent Vice-President. Mr.. Stevenson
Is man of the dark horse type,

ACCORDING to the Interpretation
placed on President Cleveland:
letter to Minister Castle by some
OF our contemporaries, the only
way for Mr. Cleveland to show his
true friendship to the Hawaiian
Minister would have been to treat
him as was the prodigal of old
tall on his neck and kiss him. 1t
Is safe to assume that Mr.. Cleve-
lands address to Minister Castle
was very similar, if not quite the
same in tone, as that rendered the
representatives of numerous other
foreign representatives received at
the same time. 1t is highly anus
ing to note the struggles of the

As pumping is one of the
most common uses to which
wind motors are put, the
method of communicating
motion to the pump is very
important and has received
our closest attention, and the
defect created in most wind
mills of racking themselves to
pieces in a severe wind has
been obviated in the Aermotor
by means of back gearing, SO
that the wheel makes about
three turns to one stroke of
the pump or enough SO that
the wheel may run at its natural
speed, unrestrained in any
moderate wind, without doing
violence to the pump or its
connections. This enables us
to give the pump long stroke
instead ofthe quick, jerky, short
strokes of ordinary wind mills.
his means that the valves are
not worked SO harshly in open
ing and closing and that the
wear and tear is greatly dimin-
lshed, while the piston rod
speed is increased, and conse-
quently the pumping capacity
is increased. The back gear
ing, together with the extra
holes for crank pins in the
crank wheel also makes it pos
slble to use with the Aermotor
any ordinary size of pump
cy Under If a wind motor is
not sensitive TO the direction of
the wind much cf its efficiency
is lost.
The ease with which a wind
mill faces up to the wind de-

THE ATLANTA EXPOSITION.

than that now in progress in At
lanta, Ga, and Notwithstanding,
as was recently stated in an ex-
change, the daily attendance re-
ceipts are not so large that the
managers see fit to publish them in
the papers, there is an unusual and
peculiar significance to this COM
mendable project instituted by the
active men of the Southern States.
Governor Atkinson of Georgia,
in the October North American
Review, calls attention TO the fact
that the South still remains largely
an unknown land to the average
Northerner, and its topography,
fora and fauna, habits and Gus
toms are almost as unknown TO
him as to the untraveled inhabi-
tant OF another continent. Shut
off from close communication with
each other by the difference in
their labor systems the Northerner
first became acquainted with the
country as member of an invad-
ing army. The food of immigra-
ton, too, that has been pouring
in at the port of New York was
naturally turned toward the North /.
and West. 1t is a significant fact |

AT the Atlanta Exposition the

The silver Conference.

The democrats who met in Washington
yesterday for the purpose Of agreeing upon
a plan for controlling the next national
democratic convention in the interest of
the free and unlimited coinage of silver
are not causing sound money democrats
any unessiness. Those who compose the
Washington conference have been active
in behalf OF free silver coinage sOlong that
they don't seem 10 realize that good crops
and better times have practically settled
the silver question. They are stiIl under
the Impression that the silverites by prop
er management can control the national
democratic convention next year. and that
they themselves are most important fac
tors OF the political situation as far as
their party is concerned.
As a matter Of fact, their action will
have no influence whatever on the silver
policy of the Democratic party, and the
country is not much concerned about what
they do or say.
The silver organs will. of course. make
a great deal out of the conference. That
is TO be expected. but the people know
that the delegates are self-appointed. Some
of them have axes to grind. very few of
them represent anybody but themselves.
and most of them will be political dead
ducks in the very near future.
The fact is, there has been more wind
than anything else in the silver agitation,
In. the two states in which there has been
a square fight between the free coinage
and the sound money democrats the for
mer have been badly beaten. O.. ~
AL the testimony is that in the west
the silver craze is on the wane. and by the
time the Democratic party meets to nomi-
nate a presidential ticket the only demo-
Gratis who will still be afflicted with it will
be few old moss-back politicians who
are too pig-headed to admit they are in
the wrong.
No there is no reason why sound money
democrats should be alarmed by the
Washington conference. They have COM
mon sense and common honesty on their
side. and these two things make a combi-
nation against which the statistics of ex-
Senator Walsh, the voluminosity of Sem
ator Daniel and the cantankerousness Of
Senator Harris cannot prevail.

Georgia Paper. and silver.

We cannot understand how the Griffin
News and Sun can feel entirely satisfied
with its canvass of the standing of the
1t is satisfied. of course. with its effort to
the extent Of. showing that a majority Of
the papers are on the side Of silver. but is
II satisfied that all the papers It places in
the silver column ought 40 be there?
The Macon Telegraph made the first
canvass, and. as far as we are able to
Judge. a very fair one. The question it
asked Of each paper was: Does your pa
per advocate the free. unlimited and in
dependent coinage of silver at the ratio
Of l6 to I?'' 1t seems to US no fairer ques-
ton could be asked. The question embOd-
les exactly what the silverites contend for.
II not. for what do they contend? The
CT the papers Of the state to be against
the demand of the silverites.
The Griffin News and Sun thought the
Telegraph's question was not fair one,
and so it proceeded to ask a question rel
alive to sustaining the fiscal policy of the
administration. Just why the Griffin News
and Sun did not frankly ask each paper
whether IL favored that view of the silver
question adopted by the Griffin convention
we do not know. Perhaps it was afraid
1t wouldn't get the kind of answers 1t
wanted. From the answers it received it
made up a list of the papers which shows
that a majority of them favor the free
silver coinage at the ratio of Is TO l.
The Macon Telegraph takes up the Crit
fin News and Suns list and makes a few
comments upon it, which are interesting
reading. From our point Of view. the
Telegraph's comments call for further re-
marks from the Griffin News and Sun.
Unless there is an explanation the i'm
preston is likely to get abroad that the
Griffin News and Sun has got sound money
papers in its free silver coinage column:
and populist papers also.
For instance, it has among the free sill
yer coinage papers the cambridge Demo-
crat, the Triton Citizen and the Monroe
Advertiser. The first of these papers. in a
letter to the Telegraph, said: The Dem
ocrat stands for sound money as enuncia-
ted by Mr.. Carlisle" The second said:
We do not think the free and unliml-
ted coinage of silver on any basis would
be sound policy" and the third said: We
do not approve the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at l6 to 1. as we believe
such policy to be unwise. dangerous
and unsafe
From the foregoing expressions does it
not appear that the Griffin News and
Suns list needs revising? 1t seems to US
1t does and the work of revising it should
be done at once. When it is revised we
think it will be found that the Telegraph's
list is pretty close to the truth.
