where Has savannah's Cotton Conc.

Savannah, Ga, Nov. 2S-Taking the sta
tistics of cotton receipts at all ports as
given in the Morning News of this date,
it will be found that the increase of this
year over last has so far been Savannah
u per cent, Charleston 80 per cent, and
Norfolk over 200 per cent! That is, three
times the quantity of cotton has been car
was so carried last year. Whence this
phenomenal increase? Can any one tell?
We know that the cotton center is chang
ing to the west and south, so that we
might naturally expect an increase in re-
ceipts at the Gulf ports, but this increase
shows Cd per cent at Galveston and 80
per cent for New Orleans, against 200 per
cent at Norfolk, and observe that the CEN
ter of production is constantly receding
from Atlantic ports.
If we take the western line of Central
Alabama as the center of that area. which
should be tributary to the Atlantic ports.
we find that the distance thence in a di-
rect line to Norfolk is about four hun
dred miles, as against two hundred miles
TO Savannah, and yet with this differen-
tlal OF two hundred land miles against
her, Norfolk receipts show 200 per cent.
increase over Savannah. This astonish-
ing difference cannot be accounted for nv
any possible difference in the rates of
water transportation to places of final de-
livery so one must seek the explanation
upon the land, and it does seem that there
must be ''nigger in the woodpiIep of some
railway connection along the respective
lines, ana in that case does it not be-
come the merchants of Savannah TO ex
pose ana destroy this enemy? r

A writer in the New York Sun
has been saying some wonderful
things about st. Martinville. Some
people of that delightful old town
are themselves responsible for
many of these absurd stories.
They are too fond of entertaining
the stranger with Evangeline and
other mythical stories; in other
words they are addicted to the ha-
bit of filtering their surplus wind
through the crowns of their hats.
The stranger is naturally led to
believe that he has struck some
quaint, unexplored town and he
writes his impressions which make
very sensational reading for the
Northern press.-Lafayette Ga

lions of good number of very
high standing Masons, who is dis
gust at the hellish teachings OF
Masonry, have left the order.
Said order is now quite well
known. According to DIR. Batail-
lie, of France; Domenico Margiot-
to, of Italy, and Miss Diana Vau-
CHAN, of New York, Masonry is a
religion itself, and it has a system
of lodge worship-a worship ap-
parently innocent to the eyes OF
ordinary Masons, but a worship
with the Palladists or Supreme
Chief Masons which consists in
honoring and adhering Lucifer
Satan, the Devil, in haired to
Christ.-Morning Star.

The Value of Farm Lands.

In a recent issue of the Arkan-
sas Developer the inquiry is made
as to why farm lands in Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa, and many other
States, sell for three or four times
as much as better lands in Arkan-
sas now bring. This same inqui-
ny naturally occurs to every one
familiar with the lands of the Gulf
States, and especially to those
familiar with Louisiana farm
lands. Farm lands can be bought
here at from $40 to $40 per acre,
similar to such lands as are worth
from $50 to 500 per acre in the
leading Western States. This diff
ference in value must unquestion-
ably lead to an influx of a new
farming population DESTROYS Of
ayailing of our cheap and fertile
lands, delightful climate and

ing wealth. The wealth of the

are needed to enable us to attain

THE JURY SYSTEM.

The jury system in this country
is open to several serious objec-
tons, the principal probably be-
ing that rule which compels a ju-
ry to bring in a united verdict in
stead of one decided by a MAORI
ty of the jurymen. There are
other defects also, which open the
way sometimes to the use of bri-
berry and perjury to secure a dis
honest and unjust verdict. These
defects can be remedied and their
evils prevented generally by the
careful and conscientious perfor-
nance of their duty by those in
charge of the jury or their watch
fulness in seeing that justice and
law are respected. In addition to
that there is the terror of the law
to deter or punish corruption in
the jury box. We think the new
Legislature might look into the
Understanding Star.

1t is stated also by the sect that
at its meetings and assemblies all

What is thought to have been
the first case where the y rays
served as silent witness in court
of law case, and furnished the evil
dence upon which a verdict for
personal damages was rendered,
occurred recently in England. A
woman who had sustained injuries
by falling down a defective stair
way in Nottingham brought suit
for damages. She failed, how
ever, to make out her case by oral
evidence, when her counsel sub
mitted a negative of her foot Ia
ken by the X rays process, show
ing that the bones were seriously
displaced. Justice Hawkins adj
mitted the negative as evidence,
and the jury returned "a verdict in
favor of the woman for five thou
sand dollars. This is as it should
be. Here was a witness that
could not be bribed by prospect
of gain nor browbeaten by a cap
tious barrister. The occupation
of the professional medical sex
perts,'' whose testimony on two
sides of case has often been at
such wide variance, is now gone,
and questions of this kind, which
involve SO much of a speculative
nature of different theorists, can
now be settled by the unerring
light of the new discovery. AL
ready accepted in surgery, it is
now accepted as an incontrOverti-
BILE witness in law, and will be as
pitiless and impartial as the most
elevated conception of justice her
sell. Morning Star.

From the above we can easily
understand why the Catholic
church objects to Masonry. 1t is
true most of the Masons are kept
in ignorance of the real principles
of the order; in fact they are
taught but just what may deceive
them, the secret and final objects
aimed at being reserved to few
privileged ones. Nevertheless,
