An exchange calls attention to one fact
touching the recent expectations of gold
from the United States that has been lost
sight of, and is continually lost sight of,
namely, that we are producing about a
million dollars of gold per week. Conse-
quently an expectation OF $50, 600, 900 per
year would leave US just where we were
before. This fact, however often re-
peated. makes no impression on the pub
lie mind because the mining of gold is
done quietly and without parade, while
in the public esr.

noRE SCHOOL HOUSES NEEDED

The crowded condition of the public
school, is matter that should not be
permitted to exist a moment longer than
is necessary. 1t appears to be the fault
of the council that the building of the
new school houses is so long deiayed, for
that body has taken the matter out of
the hands OF the board of education,
where it properly belongs, and is delay
ing the work by fussing over the plans
and the other details connected with the
buildings, thus impairing the extent of
the usefulness of the schools. The coun-
Gil may have the legal right to do this,
but heretofore the board has attended to
all these points, and the council has
acted on the result as whole. The
members Of the board are supposed to be
capable in determining the plans to be
followed, and so far have shown that the
supposliton IS we'll based; the council
could well follow the methods practised
formerly, and can guard against any e--
rors by carefully studying the improve
ments in their entirety without delaying
a sorely needed improvement by useless
detailed labor.
The situation is too serious to be dali
lied with. President Hale in his address
published in his annual report Of the
board OF education recently "a most cred
itably prepared pamphlet it u.s. one de-
serving the attention of all taxpayers),
shows that the increase in school attend
ance this year has been about p per
C ent, the pupils now being 1852 over last
season, or IA. 2o2 now. as against IL, $40
last year. The deduction is obvious
there should be all possible haste IN pre-
pairing the new school houses, and the
council shnuld work in full harmony
with the board in bringing this result
about

A one-Horse Hotel.

The pompous, want-the-earth gentle
man from an eastern city was stopping
for a day or two on business in Michi-
gan town which is only large enough to
maintain one hotel, kept very nicely by
a very nice woman, but, of course, not
up to the metropolitan standard, says the
Detroit Free Press. The pompous guest
made himself generally obnoxious by his
constant demands for what it was impos-
sible to give him, and by his criticisms
and complaints of the lackr'sf accommoda-
tons. Finally the lady hersAf was called
in.

house, madam" he said to her
You can get anything we have, but
no more sir" she responded.
well, it's strange that when a man
pays his good money he gets nothing
for it,
I'm sorry; but really we are doing the
best we can.
Probably you are" he grumbled, but
I'm not used to stopping at a onehorse
hotel

manners.

The Industrial Committee

We are satisfied that the industrial COM
mittee will do Savannah a great deal
Of good. Its members are showing that
they are very much in earnest, and the
subcommittee are energetically at work
in the fields allotted to them.
Would 1t not be advisable for the com
mittee. besides urging upon the county
commissioners the Importance of push
ing the drainage and building good roads
for the development of the agricultural
interests of the county, to make an at
tempt to establish one factory of some
sort or another? Why would it not be
good move to endeavor to establish a
veneer factory? 1t is certain that a fac
tory Of that sort, if wisely managed.
would pay a handsome return on the
money invested in it. A few days ago
the Morning News published some facts
about the veneer factory in Charleston
1t pays out $1,000 a weel. for labor and
material, and last year returned % per
cent. on the investment. 1t is confidently
expected that it will return 30 per cent.
this year.
1t wouldn't return anything If it were
not intelligently and economically man
aged. No factory will pay if not properly
managed. Some. industrial enterprises
have failed IN Savannah because they
were not wisely managed. Good manage
ment is as necessary as capital. 1t is
folly to put money in a manufacturing en-
terprise and then turn the enterprise
over to managers who are not qualified

done should be as practical as it is posi-
BILE to make it.

where the PopuIists Are Drifting.

Are the Populists drifting into social
ism? 1t would seem so from a report
of a popuHst meeting that occurred in
Chicago last Monday night.
There were about $50 representative pop
ulists present. The purpose for which the
meeting was called was to discuss the
best means to be employed to carry on
a campaign of education before the next
general elections The socialistic element
started the disturbance by having read
a document in which it was declared
that the money question wasn't of much
consequence in comparison with the ques-
ton OF the collective ownership of all
the means Of production and distribution
by the people who WELD these agencies.
The two factions were pretty nearly
even in strength and there was a very
lively state of affairs for half an hour
or So but the socialists finally captured
the meeting. Is this Chicago meeting an
indication of what the populist party will
be in the next national campaign? If it
is the probabilities are that there are a
good many populists in Georgia who will
begin to think seriously about getting out
of that party. They may not be satisfied
with the Democratic party. but it is
quite certain that they are not socialists.
ana Will not continue to act with party
having socialistic tendencies.

would maintain the parity Of the metals

sound and solid on which to base further

scheme?"

of the west in which silver is mined. They

on all the hidden silver in that country.

Il is apparent at the treasury depart
ment that the income tax is not going to
yield anything ike the amount that was
expected. II the entire income tax law
had been sustained by the supreme court
81 Is probable that the revenue from the
tax would have greatly exceeded expec-
tations. The decision OF the court. how
ever. not only released many Of those hav-
ing the largest incomes from the pay
ment OF the tax. but it encouraged those
liable for the tax to make no return OF
their incomes. or II they made returns to
do so under protest 1t IS thought there
fore. that not more than 100000 will be
obtained from the income tax. and it is
even within the bounds Of probability that
what is obtained will eventually have to
be returned by the government.
Notwithstanding the fact that a good
many congressman. both democrats and
republicans. favor an income tax, the
chances are the income tax law will be re-
pealed soon after congress meets. 1t
would be conspicuously unjust to retain
the tax unless those who have been al
lowed TO escape by the supreme court
could be reached. and 1t does not seem to
be probable that the court viii change its
ruling in respect to them.
It was mistake to place a tax upon in
comes, especially before the matter had
been submitted TO the people and they had
declared In favor of it, No mention of
such a tax is found in either the national
democratic or the national republican plat
form. 1t appears only in the populist
platform. The democrats in congress took
it upon themselves to legislate that plank
OF the populists into a law, and they must
realize now that they made a great mis-
take.
other democrats are now trying 20 COM
NIT their party to another plank of the
populist platform. namely the free silver
coinage plank, and they are making even
a greater mistake than the DEMOCRATIC
congressman. The wiser plan is to let the
national democratic convention speak for
the Democratic party. and for democrats
to stand squarely upon the platform that
is declared by the proper authority to con-
tain the principles of the party.

legged dispatch from Goldsboro, n. c.,
which begins this way: In this town

one sentence, the first one in the dis
patch, is enough to put the seal of false

editor did not stop to think that there
is not town of any importance in the
