snvannnh,s Commerce.

We cannot help thinking that the ar
rangement which President Conner of the
! Central has made for securing lower
ocean freights from this port will result
/ in a great benefit to our commerce. We
| have lost great deal Of cotton this sea-
| SON. BY this we mean that many thou
sands Of bales Of cotton from savannah's
/ legitimate territory has been shipped
through the ports of Charleston, Port
Royal, brunswick and Norfolk.
The ship agents Of this port have con-
tended that the loss of this cotton was
due to the fact that railroads Leading to
other ports have granted rebates. or have
made arrangements with ship agents by
which they accepted less than the au-
thorized rates for hauling cotton. MIR.
Conner has held to the view that there
has been very little rate-cutting by the
railroads-that cotton. which should have
been shipped from this port. has gone
to other ports, because more favorable
ocean rates were offered at those ports.
1t will soon be possible to determine
whether the ship agents have good
grounds for the position they occupy II
tutg nave MI 1Oulcfs OOuDl, Will ldho
steps to put the Central on an equal foot
ing with other roads that find freights in
Savannahs territory
The arrangement which Mr.. Conner has
made cannot be otherwise than helpful
to this port. When it goes into effect
neither Norfolk, Charleston nor Bruins
wick will have any advantage over Sa-
vannah. If cotton and other freights that
belong here do not come here 1t will be
because of the lack of enterprise here.
At least, that is the impression we get
from what Mr.. Conner says.
Another thing the new arrangement
will do. 1t will encourage the shipment of
grain through this port and will bring
imports, intended for southern and west
ern points, this way. The outlook, there
fore. for steady and great increase in
Savannah's commerce is very promising.
With all the railroad, river and banking
facilities we have it would be reflection
upon the capacity of our business men
If our commerce were to decline instead
Of increasing.

A Particular Man.

You know Jones?"
why, yes, l know Jones, Of course"
quotes the New York World.
Know what particular man Jones is?"
Il always knew he was very neat and
precise in his habits. But what of it?"
We'll, it's all right for man to be
neat, but, hang me, there is such thing
as carrying neatness too far"
What's Jones been doing now?''
You know, 1 came over with him on
the Hibernia-got in last Saturday,
Didn't know it, bat congratulate you
on getting in safe. Heard the boat had
a mighty rough passage"
That's Just the story. Only two days

Result of the ELECTION.

The republicans are victorious. II can
not yet be stated how great their victory
is. They have elected their candidate for
President, and 1t looks as If they would
have a good working majority in the nexi-
House.
1t is not necessary to explain the rea-
sons for their Victory They are appar-
ent to every one. The people don't want
silver monometallism and they refuse to
condemn President Cleveland for enforc-
ing the laws OF the United States, as he
did at the time of the Chicago riot in
1894. They condemn Altgeld and uphold
Cleveland The men who shaped the Chi
cago platform and swung the democratic
party away from safe moorings mis-
judged the American people.
While we followed the party to the ex-
tent of supporting Bryan and Sewall-a
course we could not well avoid taking, In
view of the fact that we were just enter
ing upon a heated state campaign-we
are glad to say we never approved the
Chicago platform. We are confident the
democratic party will never adopt a plat
form like that again. and we seriously
question whether it will ever again ac-
cept as leaders the men who were chiefly
instrumental in making It,
We look upon free silver coinage as q
dead issue. 1t Will never be resurrected.
1t is laid in Its grave along with the green
back issue. The best money is none too
good for the American people, and that
is the kind they intend to have.
1t will be said, and perhaps justly, that
1t was better to meet the silver issue
squarely and have done with it, but that
does not excuse those who led the demo-
cratic party away from it's time-honored
principles and to defeat because their
purpose was not simply to put an end to
the silver agitation. They intended to
establish free silver coinage. They might
well have left that to the populists, and
thus saved the democratic party from
disruption.
The democratic party, however, will
survive this defeat, as 1t has others. It
will be more careful of its leaders in flu
ture. Its factions will reunite and battle
for the principles with which it has won
so many glorious victories in the past and
with which 1t will win other victories in
years to come.

His Fatal Venture.

One of them had real foot ball head of
hair and wore sweater, while the other
wore a carnation in his button hole and
could with difficulty see over his own
collar says the Chicago Tribune. And
the girl who sat Immediately back of them
on the grip heard what they were saying:
GU didn't seem to get on very well
with that college girl at the dinner last
night" said the youth in the sweater; did
she want somebody else to take her in?"
She seemed well enough pleased at
first" said he Of the collar gloomily.
Then how did you happen to fall down?'
Well, she said she despised people who
pretend to be what they are not"
And you agreed with her?"
Well, l saw no reason to disagree with
a girl whose father is worth 81, 100000 and
who is good-looking enough for girl with
out cent to her name"
Good old boy. What did she say them"
Said she was glad to meet one person
who was willing to pass for what he real
ly was and not affect to know more than
he did. After that we got on like house
afire."
That must have been before I caught
sight of YOU
Perhaps it was. Then we got to talking
about book we had both read, and
made use of a French phrase which seem
ed to describe it better than anything
else"
And wasn't she pleased with that?"
Il guess so, but that was the end of it.
"Pshaw, you're off your base. How could
that end it2''
She said: oh! you speak French, don't
you? How nice! and began to rattle it
off like a steam engine"
We'll, but you
Il had said the only French phrase I
knew"

1t is a curious thing. the power which
some human beings have over animals,
says the Lowell Star. There is in Lowell a
boy, differing in no respect from his com
panions, who has this power in a marked
degree. Every stray dog or cat in the
neighborhood knows him and loves to be
in his company. A vicious horse which
the stablemen can with difficulty handle
will stand like lamb while he harnesses
and unharnesses him. The doves fly
around him. and in the woods the wild
birds apparently regard him as a friend
and ally. The most remarkable exhibit
of his power, which has long been known
and commented on by his friends, was
given the other day. A large and vicious
rat was captured in the stable in one OF
those traps which permit of easy ngress
and no egress. The men who were look
ing at the animal were afraid to 20 near
the trap, the animal showed such terror.
but the boy when he beheld the imprisoned
creature fearlessy put out his finger and
stroked its head, the rat manifesting as
much pleasure as would a cat or a dog
Several days have passed since then, and
the stablemen are still afraid Of their cap
ture. but he has grown so tame and IA
miliar with the boy as to allow him TO
take hime out and put him in the trap,
will come at his whistle, and manifests
every appearance of Joy at his presence.
There seems to be no question but what
the boy could train that rat to perform
almost any feat within the power Of such
an animal

How to Prevent shipwreck.

A certain young woman on the North
side teaches class in mission Sunday
school, says the Chicago Times-Herald.
She has difficult task imparting scraps
of religious instruction to her young
charges. and often amusing answers are
unconsciously returned to questions which
she asks. On one occasion she asked her
pupils:
What do the high priests do?''
And received the reply:
They burned insects before the people, -
by which the youngster, of course, meant
incense.
But one Of the funniest experiences.
which well shows the queer Ideas which
the children receive in their lessons, was
given when, after discussion of ship
wreck which followed a lesson three or
four weeks previously on the well-known
story OF Jonah and the whale she hap
pened to ask:
Suppose a big storm arose at sea and
1t looked as though you were going to be
drowned. what would you do?"
Il would throw a man overheard for a
whale to swallow" was the reply.
