Secretary HOke Smith.

The chances are that Georgia could not
do much better than select Hoke Smith
as one of her ambassadors to the council
of states. Mr.. Smith has ability and
courage and grit. He has youth and en-
thusiasm. When he WAS selected by
President Cleveland for secretary of the
interior many we're inclined to believe
that the president had INDUCED in a
questionable experiment, but experience
with Mr.. Smith proves the wisdom of the
presidents selection. Secretary Smith
has been one of Mr.. Cleveland's positive
cabinet successes. The interior depart
ment is an immense institution. 1t re-
quires a first rate lawyer and great
business manager. Mr.. Smith has proved
to be both. He is big man with com
prehensive grasp of affairs, enterprise,
public spirit and acumen.
His experience in the cabinet endows
him with splendid equipment for seat
in the senate. He stands for something.
The people know his views on every pub
lie uestion, or, if they don't know, they
can know by asking. Mr.. Smith has
never INDUCED in the "new south" nom
sense, which at one time furnished a con-
venlent cloak for school of protection
Democrats in Georgia. He is thorough
tariff reformer, thorough Democrat and
thoroughly sound on all of the funda-
mental questions. He is more opposed
to silver monometallism than to gold
mon ometallism, and asserts that he is an
honest bimetallist. If he enters earnestly
on the campaign for senator in Georgia
he will shell the Woods.-Washingto cor
respondent st. Louis Republic.

THE suggestion of Uncle Joseph Medill,
of the Chicago Tribune, in favor of max
ing Democratic paper out of the Inter
Ocean can not DO credited with entire
freedom from sel6shness. Yet it is we'll
worth considering. The silver Democrats
of the west, who clearly constitute an
overwhelming majority of the party,
need the intelligent and vigorous help of
great newspaper in Chicago, and, as
the Inter Ocean has always been sound
on the currency question and is doubtless
weary of the "bloody shirt" issue, it would
become Democratic.

PRESERVING FRESH FRUITS,

The American consul at Rheims, France,
has informed the state department
through an official report, of the discovery
Of a new process of keeping fruits fresh,
which consists in treating them to vapor
from water and alcohol. Even fruits
which have begun to decay may be pre-
served indefinitely by the process he
states. The sub ject is an interesting one
in New Mexico, where the fruit growing
industry is rapidly becoming factor of
trade in nearly every community. With
the expositions announced and those in
prospect displays of fruit must prove of
value in attracting immigration to this
fruitful territory. For the Worlds fair
exhibit many earnest efforts to preserve
the fruit in it's natural state by the use of
solution of salicylio acid we're made,
but this much Wanted process has been
found scarcely able to fill the bill.
The San Francisco Examiner has the
following report of certain experiments
now being made with borax as preserva-
tive of fresh fruits. If true, there will be
a revolution in methods of handling fresh
fruits, and borax cars will take the place
OF iced cars for long hauls. Frank M.
smith, the borax king, believes he has
solved the problem of preserving fresh
fruit so that it can be put on eastern
markets in satisfactory condition. For
some timo he has been experimenting
with borax and finds the ingredients of
the salt peculiarly adapted for precluding
vegetable decomposition. Several ex-
psrimentsl shipments have been made to

The Japanese are encountering more
or less difficulty in restoring order in
Formosa. Strangely enough, one result
of the delay is plainly felt in almost
every household. As result of the
troubles in the island the camphor out
put has been greatly reduced, and this
has enabled the English syndicate, headed
by Colonel North, the nitrate king, to
corner the camphor market and force up
prices nearly 100 per cent. Until the
new rulers of the island shall COM

Reed, Quay and Allison.

The friends of Reed have been claim
ing with much gusto for months past
that Quay favored Reeds Nomination.
Quay undoubtedly has given this impress
sion to some of Reeds friends. But / am
told by a close friend of the Pennsylva-
MIA senator that he is not in earnest.
Quay's friends tell me that Reed can
never be nominated for president If
Quay can prevent it.
1t will be- remembered that Quay was
not in favor of the force bill, and that
after the defeat of that measure in the
senate of the 5lst congress-, ex-Lieuten-
ant Governor Kennedy, of Ohio, then a
member of the house, made savage as
sault upon Quay, in which he accused
him of looting the treasury of Pennsyl-
vania and of other serious things. Reed
as speaker of the house, recognized Ken
nedy to make this attack, ard made no
effort to prevent it, on the contrary
seemed to enjoy it. Quay has always
held Reed responsible for permitting this
attack upon him, and his friends tell me
that no matter what may be said to the
contrary, Quay intends to be revengee
on Reed in the manner most hurtful tc
the Maine statesman. Quay does MOI
want Harrison, and he has no love fol
Mckinley. His choice for the Republic
can nomination is undoubtedly his col
league, Don Cameron, and after him, AL
lison. In fact, it may be said, as l have
already stated in this correspondence
that the Republican senators are almost
unit for Allison, although some of then
must pretend to be in favor of loca
favorites. - Washington Correspondence

The New York Times publishes an
appreciative review of a work on bime-
talIism by Everett P. Wheeler, and
says that the following proposition ad-
vanced by Mr. Wheeler really contains
the crucial argument:
''And now let me make one PROPOSE
ton to the free coinage advocates.
You say that the free coinage of silver
would tend to equalize the value of
the two metals, and that this would he
done by natural means, without any
legal compulsion. Would you agree to
repeal all laws making silver a legal
tender, if, on our part, we should
agree, on that basis, to allow silver to
be coined by the government without
charge to the purchaser towner)? In
other words, are you willing to let
each of the two metals stand on its
own bottom, without any aid from a
legal tender quality"
That would be the true test, but we
have no idea that the silver men will
admit that it is either fair or just. I'm
der it's operation a silver dollar would
be worth about 1634ths of one hun
dred cents, while the gold dollar would
be practically worth its face value

Catherine Paetow, of Brooklyn, NY,
died suddenly on the front porch of her
house on Wednesday night in the midst
of fourth of July celebration. Physi-
clans who were summoned from the
neighborhood ascribed the death to
fatty degeneration of the heart, but
while the body was being prepared for
burial it was discovered that there was
a bullet in the woman's heart.
The usual number of fourth of July
accidents attended the observance of
the day. Katie Coyle, of Brooklyn, N.
Y, was fatally injured by stray bull
let, supposed to have been fired by an
italian, who afterward surrendered to
the police.
Several thousand Hovas recently at

loss. The French captured the stand

A Cheerful Treasury Statement.

The Treasury statement for the fiscal
year ending with June 30 ult. shows
that the receipts from customs under
the new tariff have increased decided
ly. Under the Mckinley high tariff the
receipts in the fiscal year ending with
June, 1894, amounted to only S131, $751;
$50. Under the operation of the Will
son tariff for the ten months ending
with June 80, 1895, and that of the law
of 1890 for the two previous months,
the receipts rose to 1852, 749, 405-a hand
some increase of S21 $50, S75.
This increase shows that the new
tariff, with its reduced duties, will yield
the government more revenue than did
the Mckinley tariff with its high and
almost prohibitive duties. Some ''pro-
tectionist" journals are clamoring for
higher tariff rates, alleging that such
rates would increase revenue. But it
is now evident that return TO McKin-
ley duties on imports would not in
crease, but would decrease, the reve-
nue.. and consequently would cripple
the Treasury.
The figures show that the Wilson
tariff is a good revenue producing
measure. The only trouble is with the
internal revenue, which decreased in
the last fiscal year SO, 543, 769. If more
revenue is needed in 1896 it should
therefore be obtained by increasing in
ternal revenue rates LET us have
peace" rather than republican tariff
tinkering.-N Z. Herald.

BLOODY RIOT AT A PICNIC.-Enq-
tish, Ind, July CAS- result of a riot
at picnic, given by German Roman
Catholics in Perry county Thursday
afternoon, three persons are dead, five
fatally wounded and from fifty to a
hundred are seriously hurt. The des-
perate fight, which lasted for an hour,
was precinitated by gang Of roughs,
who came to the picnic inflamed with
whisky and armed with clubs and
knives, and started fight in which a
thousand persons engaged. Many of
them injured are women and children,
for it seems that the intruders spared
neither sex nor age. Beer flowed free
ly at the picnic and everything went
smoothly till many were hilarious,
when the roughs undertook to 'clean
Ont the Dutch" They were armed
with pistols, knives and knuckles,
while the Germans had few, if any, of
these weapons, but by the use of beer
bottles, clubs and stones, they more
| than held their own. Women fought
beside their husbands and screaming
children were kicked aside 1t soon
became apparent to the attacking par
ty that they would be annihilated il
the fight continued, and, after Their
leader was laid low. they fled to the
woods, leaving three OF their number
| on the ground for dead and several
Others fatally wounded.

rec Silver.

The Baltimore Sun says, free silver
would strike our farmers and planters
on both sides, injuring them alike as
creditors and debtors. For while ii
would depreciate the dollars they
would have to take in payment fol
their crops, it would at once and sharp
ly send up the interest rates on their
loans and make their debts heavier to
carry. 1t is believed that about one
third of the total of American debts Is
held abroad. Proclaim free-silver coin
age. and every foreign holder of an
American security would want his
money back as quickly as he could get
it. That would unload such mass OF
bonds and shares upon our market and
make such drain upon the resources
of our banks that the farmer OF planter
who needs to borrow capital to use in
his business would find himself forced
to pay much dearer for it than he does
now.
There never was anything in fiat
money, whether of paper or silver, for
the great body of the plain people,
who work and produce things, except
heartless deception, bitter disappoint
ment and wholesale spoliation. The
security of all honest people is in
honest money, worth its face at al
times and in all places, and good fol
one hundred cents worth of real value
all the way round the world, from
London to Melbourne. thence to San
Francisco or New York, and at all the
stopping places between. This is g
great country, but it is not as great as
the whole world, and it is useless tc
talk of fiat system of finance for the
exclusive convenience of Americans al
long as our ports are open to all man
kind,

We learn from the Greenbrier Inde-
pendent that Joel Mcpherson Harris.
one of the most promising young mem
bers of the Greenbrier bar, and eldest
son of Major John W. Harris, OF Lewis
burg, died Thursday evening, the 2th

operation for appendicitis, performed
by DR. Hunter Mcclure and his son
Stuart, of Richmond, Virginia, aged
81 years, months and 10 days. The
operation, which all agreed was alb
soluteIy necessary, was skillfully per-
formed, the patient, though Informed
of the danger, heroically announcing
his willingness to take the chances.
His vital powers, however, proved UNI
equal to the shock, and the fears oil
his friends were realized when, at the
hour mentioned, his heart ceased te
beat. Possessed of many attractions
of mind, person, and character. Mr.
Harris gave promise OF an honorable
and useful career as man and citizen
He b cid an honorable place at the bar
and had been twice elected Mayor Of
Lewisburg.-a position held by him al
| the time of his death.

Marshall E. Price, the Murderer of
Sallie Dean, Lynched.

At II O'Clock Tuesday night of last
week Marshall E. Price, the murderer
of little Sallie Dean, an account of
which we published at the time, was
taken from the Jail at Denton, Md. by
mob and hanged to tree. This was
on the night of the End, and he was
condemned to be hanged by law on
the ath-Friday last-and the work on
the gallows had been begun, and he
would have been hanged at that time
in proper order but for the effort made
by his lawyers for new trial. The
court refused to grant new trial,
whereupon the case was taken to the
Court of Appeals on writ of error,
and that court would not meet till
October, and would prolopg his life
till that time, and that made reprieve
by the Governor necessary, and when
the news of the reprieve was received,
the excitement became intense, many
misunderstanding its purpose and ef-
feet, supposing 1t was some sort OF
pardon or Communication of punishment
that would save him from the gallows.
The efforts of his counsel to save or
at least to prolong his life, had the
effect of shortening 1t few days.
The reporter of the Baltimore San
says that at 10 o'clock Tuesday night
"a large number of persons had
gathered, o few at 2 time, into the
town, and then it was known that
there was to be lynching. Price was
told of their presence and said to a
guard for Gods sake let me out
l will hide. | will not run away
But every avenue of escape was guard
ed. and the sheriff had been notified
not 10 attempt to take PRICE away.
The mob had no difficulty in enter
ing the jail, where they found the
crouching and terrified man. He was
quickly forced out of the building, and
short distance from the Jail stands
the tree to which he was hanged"
1t will be remembered that for some
time he persisted in falsely duplicating
Grant Corkran, saying Corkran com
mitted the murder in his presence.
This was an outrage, nearly as bad at
| the foul murder he committed. and, o.
itself, showed that he deserved to be
| hanged unless he were either idioti(
or insane.
Gov. Brown, when informed of the
lynching of Price, said that he con
sidered it a great misfortune that the
law was not allowed to take its course
In granting the reprieve, he said, he
had only taken the one course to be
pursued. Exceptions had beer
filled by Prices counsel, and these had
been sent to the Court of Appeals. Al
this was necessary according to law, he
could not do otherwise than grant the
respite. He recounted the suggestion
made in his message to the Genera
Assembly of incarcerating in the peni
| Tertiary in Baltimore all prisoners
under sentence of death.
