The New Orleans states says there Is
every prospect Of a smooth and prosper
Gus business season In that city. A few
days ago there was a highly satisfactory
conference between the owners Of the cot
ton presses and their workmen, with the
result that an agreement was made which
will have the effect Of reducing the cost
Of handling cotton at that port fully 30
per cent. Heretofore there has been q
clash every season between the press
men and the cotton handlers. This year.
it is believed the customary clash VIII
be avoided. The States says there is
every reason to believe that under the new
schedule, which will soon so into effect
the shipments of cotton to New Orleans
Will be much larger this year than last.

Very little opposition to the dispensary
law is cropping out in the South Carolina
campaign. 1t seems that the people who
are opposed TO it have about given up
hope of upsetting it for some time, or IN
I'll the Tillman regime can be overthrow.
The dispensary has become a vast politi-
cal machine in the hands of the dominant
political element, which is being used with
telling effect in this campaign. All or
the patronage of the concern is in the
governors hands, and the incumbent
takes care that those who hold appoint
ments as dispensers or constables are his
active supporters.

A California preacher asserted in a SER
mon the other day that persons incurably
sick should be gotten rid of; that they
should be painlessly killed. why seek,
as now. to prolong their agonies?" he
asked. why exhaust the resources of
medical science to keep them in misery?
Would it not be a more Christian act to
put them gently out of pain? God speed
the day when men shall rid themselves OF
theological and personal prejudices and
act as justice dictates and mercy re-
quires." This is a horrible doctrine, at
variance with the teachings of the deca-
logue and repugnant to Christian spirit.
No legislature would dare to enact such
a barbarous law as is suggested. and no
court would dare to enforce it, 1t may be
doubted that even the preacher himself
would like to see such law in force He
was probably merely seeking notoriety,
which he judged such sensational dec
laration would give him. Nevertheless.
the preacher who advocates, sincerely or
otherwise, the removal" of human be-
ings. is not a proper person to teach
morals

From the Jacksonville Metropolis Dem

One of the needs of this country to-day
is purer political methods, better men for
our party candidates, less bossism, less
demagogy, more regard for the people and
less for political combinations. more re-
gard for right and less regard for political
,expediency, appeals TO reason and not
prejudice, and free ballot and fair
count.

Tax returns from various sections of
the state show that the value of lands,
having touched rock bottom, has taken an
upward turn. The increase so far has not
been very great, but the tendency is up
ward. and by the time the next returns
are made it will be considerable The
present. therefore, is the time for people
seeking homes in Georgia to buy lands
The probabilities are that they are
cheaper now than they will be again in
long time, If ever.

The large attendance at the meeting Of
the Georgia State Dairymen's Association
at Macon indicates the rapid advance that
has been made in dairy interests in the
state in the last few years. Georgia can
produce as good butter and cheese as any
other state. and there is no
good reason why she should
not produce all that she uses
The market for these products is ready
made, All that consumers require is that
staple home products shall be of as good
quality as those of other states. This is
shown to be true in the ready sale that
Georgia syrup finds. In many sections of
the state New Orleans syrups have been
virtually run out of the market by the
home product. The meeting of dairymen
at Macon will prove of much benefit to
the state at large.

The people of Athens are qualified to
speak with authority upon the subject of
prohibition. They are profoundly interest
ed in the subject, and have adopted the
dispensary system under local option. 1t
is their opinion, as stated in our dispatches
yesterday, and elaborated in the Athens
Banner, that local option is the correct
solution Of the prohibition question Under
the workings of the local option law. when
a community votes for prohibition. practfe
cal prohibition can be secured. because the
majority sentiment of the conn. unity is in
favor of it. and the laws can and will be
inforced. But when a community has pro-
hibition unwillingly forced upon it, it is
impossible to have either the spirit or the
letter Of the law carried out. Local option
embodies the democratic principle of self
government general prohibition is pater-
nalistic.

Mr.. Watson should not be criticised too
harshly for working his own windmill

The political situation in North Caro-
lima is interesting Senator Marion But
Ter thinks he controls it. He is quoted
as having said in Washington on Tues
day. I'VE can give Watson eleven cleo
toral votes" Does he purpose giving the
states eleven electoral votes to Bryan or
Mckinley? That is the question the po-
htical leaders in Washington are discuss
ing. 1t looks as if Senator Butler were
looking for a bargain. If the republicans
win do more for the populists than the
democrats, then they can have the electo-
raj votes of the state for their Presiden-
tial candidate. The democrats can have
them for Bryan if they will come to the
terms of the populists But in no event,
according to the Butler program, will the
states electoral votes be cast for any
other man than Watson for Vice Presi-
dent.
A prominent democratic leader is quot
ed as saying that if Mr. Butler thinks he
has the democrats in a tight place, and can
drive a hard bargain with them, he will
find they will not stand 1t, and will
make a straight fight-that they will
not be bull-dozed into giving up any
thing" Would 1t not have been better
for the democratic party if it had never
had anything to do with the populists? We
are inclined to think it would. If Senator
Jones. the chairman of the national dem
ocratic committee, had not gone
to St. Louis and endeavored
to have the populists endorse
the national democratic ticket, the
democratic party would have stood a bet
ter chance of winning the election. Afil-
iation with the populists has a dampening
effect upon the democrats.
1t is clear that the populists generally
don't intend to support the democratic
ticket unless their candidate for Vice
President is accepted. They are out for
the spoils of office. and they want more
than the democrats can afford to give.
The wiser plan is to drop them.

CURRENT COMMENT.


From the Birmingham News Dem).
The News again insists that the wisest
course for sound money democrats to pur-
sue would be to remain in the regular or
ganization, for it is there alone that they
can hope to right whatever blunders were
committed by the party at Chicago.

A Florida Scene.

From the New York Family Magazine
QS96)
Where Pablo to the broad ST. John
His deep and briny tribute pays,
The wild deer leads her dappled fawn
OF graceful limb and timid gaze.
Rich sunshine falls on wave and land
The gull is screaming overhead,
And on a beach of whitened sand
Lie wreathy shells with lips of red.
The jessamine hangs golden flowers
on ancient oaks in moss arrayed,
And proudly the palmetto towers,
While mockbirds MARBLE in the shade.
Mounds built by mortal hands are near,
Green from the summit TO the base,
Where buried with the bow and spear
Rest tribes forgetful of the chase.
Cascade, nigh the ocean shore,
Is now ruin, wild and lone,
And on her battlements no more
Is banner waved or trumpet blown.
Those doughty cavaliers are gone
Who hurled defiance there to France,
While the bright waters of st. John
Reflected flash of sword and lance.
But when the light of dying day
Falls on the crumblinS wrecks of time,
And the wan features of decay
Wear softened beauty like the cline
My fancy summons from their shroud
The knights of old CASTLE again,
And charging thousands shout aloud
st. Jago! strikes the day for Spain.
When mystic voices on the breeze
Which fan the rolling deep, sweep by,
The spirit of the Yemasees
Who ruled the land of yore seem nigh.
And mournful marks around where stood
Their palm-roofed lodges still are seen,
And in the shadow Of the wood,
Their tall funereal mounds are green.
