Tie Cold waves of 1895.

People in all parts of the country have
reason for remembering the unprecedented
and unreasonable cold weather OF this
year. Florida was the first OF the cold
weather victims. More than half
of her oranges were on the trees and
owing to a spell of very warm weather
the orange trees were fun of sap when the
cold wave came and destroyed her oranges
and killed nearly all her orange and lemon
trees. 1t is safe 10 say that the loss she
suffered was more than $l0,OOOOOO.
The cold wave that did so much dam
age in Florida, however, did not affect
injuriOusly the east and the west, and the
people Of those sections. while they sym
pathized with the people of Florida, were
happy in the thought that while they
sometimes suffer from droughts and cy-
clones they are seldom or never hurt by
cold weather. But this year was an ex
ception TO the rule. After a few days of
unusually warm weather for the season
there came, early this week, a cold wave
which killed the grape crop of central
New York-a crop that averages 81, OOO 900
SetilOn-2reIt-
ly damaged the peach crops of Michigan
and Delaware, seriously injured corn in
the northwest and destroyed much of the
winter wheat in Northern Illinois, wiscon-
sin and Iowa.
No approximately correct estimates can
be given of the loss caused by the last
cold wave, but It is very much greater
than that from which Florida suffered so
greatly. The cold waves of 1895 have. it
is safe to say, damaged the fruit growers
and grain farmers anywhere from $40
100000 to $5OOOO.OOO.
Such loss Will of course depress bust
ness greatly in localities, and check en-
terpFises Still, the country, as a whole
is steadily becoming more prosperous.
showing that it is so vast and its resources
50 enormous that the loss of MANY mil
lions Of dollars worth of the products of
labor hardly have noticeable effect upon
its condition generally.

Reports from the Great Lakes say that
fishing is poorer this spring than it has
been in eighteen years. AT Milwaukee it
is said the average catch is not larger than
% per cent. of the average catch of year
ago. 1t is thought there is connection be-
tween the scarcity of fish and the ex-
tremely cold weather of the winter SO far
as is known, no extraordinary scarcity
has been reported from the salt water fish

Joaquin Miller. the poet of the Slerras. -
returned from Honolulu a month or two
ago with some pretty tough stories of the
way things were being run by the Dole
government. Since that time some pretty
tough stories of Joaquin's life in Homo
lulu have come to light, so that both Pres
ident Dole and Poet Miller are at present
busy defending themselves against tale
bearers.

Of making canal to connect the Wacca-

keeping open the inside route between this

ally known to require that attention should

Russia appears determined to goad ia

already made reasonable concessions in

the concessions have only whetted his ap-
petite for more, hence he will occupy GER
tain Korean ports until his demands are
complied with. 1t may be doubted that
Japan will submit to much more bullying
and intimidation. Russia's interests in the
extreme east are in conflict with those of
England, and Japan could probably depend
upon at least the covert aid of England
in case of an encounter with Russia. Be
sides, the Japanese are just now feeling
very well satisfied with their own fight
ing powers, and would probably not need
much urging to join issues with Russia,
hence the danger of the situation.

According to the calculations of Princi-
pal Keeper Turner of the Georgia peniten-
tiary, Chatham county sends a greater
number of criminals to the penitentiary. in
proportion to population. than any county
in the state. Why this is so should afford
an interesting study for the authorities
The probabilities are that the reason NAV
be found in that justice is more rigorous
" and sternly dispensed in this county
than in any other. Nevertheless, it may be
expected that certain free silverites will
claim the reason is thai Savannah favors

Reckless lingo TnII..

The republican papers are now saying
that Judge Gresham is about to retire
from the office Of Secretary of State, and
that the chances are that he will be sue
ceeded by Don NJ. Dickinson. They are
expressing much delight at the prospect
Of such a change. They declare that the
recent speech of Mr.. Dickinson at Detroit,
in favor Of a vigorous foreign policy. suits
them exactly, and that Mr. Dickinson is
the man for Secretary of State. They
seem to overlook the fact that they have
all along been viciously condemning the
ADMINISTRATIONS foreign policy saying
Mr.. Cleveland was responsible for it. But
if Mr.. Cleveland makes Mr. Dickinson Sec
rotary of State it would be an announce
ment, practically, that he favors such a
foreign policy as is indicated in Mr. Dick
inson's Detroit speech. Were not the re-
publican papers wrong, therefore, in say
ing, as they have said as often as the OPP
portunity to do SO presented itself, that
the administrations foreign policy was
weak and un-American?
After all, has not Mr.. Cleveland man
aged the foreign affairs of the country
wisely and with credit to the country?
There is a vast difference between talking
without any feeling of responsibility and
acting under the full weight of RESPONSE
bility. With responsibility comes conser-
vatism, and those who talk so aggressively
about a vigorous foreign policy would
change their tone quickly if they were
required to direct our foreign policy.
There does not seem to be any reason
for saying that Judge Gresham is prepar-
ing to resign the Office of Secretary Of
State. Until he resigns it is useless to dis
cuss the question of the kind of Score
tary of State Mr.. Dickinson would be if
he should be nominated for that office.
