Georgia supplied from her own poultry
farms this year a larger percentage of
the Thanksgiving and Christmas poultry
that was served on her tables than has
been the case, probably, in many years.
Heretofore nearly all of the dressed tur-
keys sold in the cities have been shipped
from Tennessee and elsewhere. This
year Tennessee supplied a great many of
them, but Georgia was in the market also
with lot of as fine birds as were ever
served with cranberries and oysters.
Many barrels of Middle Georgia turkeys
were sold in Savannah this week, besides
hundreds of turkeys from the rice fields
of South Georgia. At Brunswick, it is
reported. no less than 100 wagon loads Of
native turkeys we're sold during the week
at holiday prices

Not Honest LerisIatIou.

Neither OF the bills which the republic
cans propose for the relief of the treas
ury is honest legislation What is the
bill which they call revenue bill? Is
it anything more than a bill TO raise the
tariff-a bill in the interest of protection?
In what sense can il be called a revenue
bill? It raises the duty on all schedules
to about what It was when the Mckinley
tariff was in operation. 1t is, in effect,
high tarin biIl-the kind Of tariff
against which the people voted by an
overwhelming majority in 1899. No de-
partmeHt has asked for an increase in
the revenue. and there has been no de-
mand from the people for a high pro-
tective tariff, and it is far from certain
that the bill would yield an immediate
increase in the revenue In fact, it is
quite certain it would not. But it would
take a vast amount of money out of the
pockets OF the people and put it into those
of manufacturers and importers.
Take wool, for instance. If the i'm
porters should become satisfied that the
bill would become a law they would i'm
port enough wool and wooden goods to
last them year or more. and hence very
little wool or woolens would be imported
during that time, and therefore no duty
would be collected. The putting of duties
on certain farm products is intended to
shut out those products from Canada.
not TO raise revenue. How insincere,
therefore, are the republicans when they
call their high tariff bill a revenue meas
ure! And they must know the President
would not sign such a bill, not only be-
cause he has not called for revenue, but
also because it is not revenue raising
measure.
And their proposed bond bnlli Don't they
know they are not acting honestly in pro-
posing to pass such bill. They make
the bond a 8 per cent. fve-year coin
bond, and say that it shall not be sold
for less than par. They pretend to be-
lieve that it can be hoated at par for
gold. They are very credulous if they
are sincere. They expect the people will
pay gold for the bonds with the chance of
getting back silver worth fifty cents on
the dollar. at the end of five years. If
they want gold for them why don't they
make them gold bonds? They certainly
should be willing to pay back as good
money as is received for them
All this legislation which the republi-
cans are proposing is for effect. 1t is
politics pure and simple 1t is pitlful
that great party should resort to such
methods with the hope of making a little
political capital.
If they should drop their high tariff bin,
and put a tax on beer, the people would
believe them when they say they want to
provide revenue. The present tax on beer
is low, and dollar a barrel on that arti-
Gle would bring revenue Immediately, and
plenty of it. And if gold is wanted upon
terms fair to the people there must be =
promise to pay back the borrowed money
in gold. Those who have gold are not
going to lend it to the government with
the chance of getting silver for It that
may be worth, when the "coin" bonds are
due, only fifty cents on the dollar. Let us
have honest legislation, not legislation for
a political purpose.

The coke workers Of the Connellsville
coke region. in Pennsylvania. received a
Christmas present Of an increase Of 10
per cent. in their wages. The advance
marks the highest wages ever paid in the
coke region. The wages OF these workers
depends upon the demand for iron and
steel. and the general condition Of the iron
and steel manufacturing industries. Tn
der democratic administration and a
democratic tarin law business has inn
proved 80 much that the coke workers are
now resolving the highest wages they
ever earned IN their lives. u Is certain
that these people do not wish a return 10

The Spaniards in Havana laugh at the
suggestion that the insurgents will be
able to enter that city. 1t is true the city
is well fortified and contains a strong
force for defense, but the Spaniards may
discover that the situation is not one for
laughter. They admit that the advance
that the insurgents have made across the
provinces of Santa Clara and Matanzas
to the borders of the province of Havana
is a remarkable military achievement OPP
posed as they were by Gen. Campos with
a strong military force Why then should
they not perform a stll more remarkable
military feat by entering Havana?
The progress which the insurgents have
made indicates that much of the news
the world has been receiving relative to
the military operations in Cuba has not
been reliable. The news has come mainly
through Spanish sources, and apparently
has been colored to suit the purposes of
the Spanish government. The insurgents
have been accomplishing more than was
generally known. and it would not be at
all surprising if Spain should begin to
think of offering concessions to them with
the hope of bringing the war to an end.
Spain has been straining her resources
to the utmost to provide the means of
carrying on the war. 1t is question if
she can bear the strain much longer. Her
army has been kept at its present stan
dard of efficiency by methods that are
not popular with the Spanish people Many
families, it is said in the dispatches, have
impoverished themselves to pay what is
required to keep theH SONS out of the
army. They look upon Cuba as death
hole, and those who have sons in the
army there have little hope of seeing them
return. No doubt more of the Spanish
troops have succumbed to fever than
have fallen victims to the arms of the in
surgents.
The suggestion is contained in the dis
patches that both sides are expecting a
battle soon that will indicate by its result
what the end of the war will be, and that
the end. after that battle. will not be far
off. This may be mere speculation. The
insurgents appear to be as strong now
as at any previous time. The fact that
they have advanced so near Havana does
not Indicate growing weakness on their
part. On the contrary 1t shows they are
more confident Of success than ever before.
That being the case, it is hardly probable
that If they should lose a great battle
they would be so crippled that they would
have to give up the contest.
The information is that Fort sumter

ten-inch rifles. In that case. Sumter

It is difficult TO understand why Mr.
George Kennan's opinion with regard to
the Venezuelan affair should be consid-

Hardly Capable of Patriotism.
Vrom the philadelphia Record Dem.)

If the republican congress sincerely de-
sired to increase the revenues without
embarrassing business they could make
the sugar duties specific, or they could
tax tea, coffee or beer. But they have
no notion of increasing the revenues
nor of retiring the greenbacks, nor of
doing anything except to play politics for
whatever they think they can make out
of the game. So much has already been
made apparent.

ture, by unanimous vote, passed
resolutions on the death Of Queen
Victoria, and after same being duly
made a matter OF record, IL was dis
covered that the old lady was still In
the enjoyment Of her usual good
health.
IL appears that an Austin paper.
for April fool purposes, published an
account OF the queens death. and
that the legislators were the first to
fall into the trap. Next day that
body was the laughing stock, not only
of Austin, but OF the country as far
as news Is carried on lightning's

Mr.. John Ross, a prominent farmer
in the Reed community, eight miles
west of the city, was here today. Mr..
Ross reports the wind storm of last
Tuesday as having done a large
amount of damage to the corn, oats
and wheat in his neighborhood. He
says that the young corn was whipped
off at the ground, and the fields were
covered over with drIfted sand and
dirt, in some places several inches.
The young oats suffered a like fate,
and the few wheat fields, that yet
gave signs of producing a crop of
wheat were completely annihilated,
and today the farmers commenced to
pillow them up, preparatory to plant
ing them in corn. Mr.. Ross had 95
acres in corn large enough TO plow but
it all went down before the cutting
winds, and he says the field today
shows no signs of having, last Friday
contained fine stand Of young corn.
He thinks, however, that the young
stalks of both corn and oats were not
covered too deep with the sand and
loose dirt, will soon come out again,
and may yet make fair crops but the
wheat is a total loss and will be plow-
ed up and the ground planted in other
crops. pS.-GaineSville Register.
