Christ Church.

Savannah sincerely regrets the disaster
which has befallen the historic Christ
Church edlfce. That church is not only
landmark Of the city, but is a milestone
upon the Kings highway. The edilice pre-
sents rather dilapidated appearance at
present, with it's wrecked interior and it's
scorched and smoke-stained walls. How
ever. the results Of the fire might have
been worse. The walls appear to be in
good condition, except that they are dis
figured Should this prove TO be the case
upon examination, it is very probable that
the old building will be repaired. An in
surance agent said yesterday that the
building could be made as good as it was
before the fire for the amount of the in
surance.
Those who remember the edihce as 1t
was twenty-five years ago will doubtless
agree that, If 1t Is to be rehabilitated, 1t
would conduce to it's beauty and SYM
metry to have the interior restored in con-
formity with its original Grecian design;
with beautiful and massive white pillars
and spotless white ceiling. and walls. The
fancy wooden ceiling and galleries were
and beauty of the exterior lines Of the
building.
The interior of the church has been re-
modelled twice in the past twenty-five
years. and, while the work was well done
from a mechanical point of view, the i'm
provements were not in line with the ar
chitectural style of the building. This, at
least, has been the opinion of persons
competent to judge when they entered the
church for the first time.
Christ Church Is something more to Sa-
vannah than merely a church; it is a his
toric landmark. Within it's walls the
sanity and chivalric Bishop Eliott-
preached From this foundation was built
up the diocese of Georgia. Every patriotic
citizen feels that he has an interest in its
welfare and preservation. The lot on
which the church stands was set apart
for that purpose in the year 1873, a few
months after the arrival of Oglethorpe and
his colony but it was not until 174O that an
attempt was made to erect church, and
it was ten years after that when it was
dedicated. The first church was burned
in 1886. The edihce that succeeded it in
turn was destroyed by fire and in its
place was erected in 1888 the building which
was burned on Saturday night. REV.
John Wesley, the founder of Methodism
was third rector of Christ Church Q730
though it is question if he ever preached
on the present site of the church. 1t is
believed that he preached in a small edi-
flee which stood at what is now the north
east corner of Bull street and Bay lane, a
part of the lot on which the custom house
stands.

bounty on Agricultural Exports.

The report comes from Washington that
certain of the western senator's have de
cided TO demand a bounty on agricultural
exports. particularly wheat. They take
the logical argument advanced by a GER
tain western political economist, that il
the republican policy of protection is to
be fastened upon the country, it should
be extended 10 all classes alike and not
10 the manufacturers alone. A tariff on
products which we raise for export is not
protective in any sense of the word. hence
the only way to give the farmers the ben
eft OF protection is to pay them a bounty
on the products which they ship abroad.
This, says the western political econo-
mist, would protect them in buying in a
protectionist market and selling in a free
trade market, as they now have to do.
When the bounty paying on agricultural
products begins, the cotton planters will
probably see to it that they are written
down in the list of benefciaries, as well
as the wheat planters They have as
much claim upon the governments pa
ternal care as the wheat men. They are
as much entitled to a bounty Of 1 or 2
cents pound on their cotton as the
wheat men are to a bounty of 10 cents a
bushel on their wheat
At the same time we feel in duty bound
to tell the wheat and cotton planters that
a bounty on their exports would not do
them any good On the other hand it
might and most likely would, do them a
great deal of harm. All cotton planters
of any experience know that a high and
strong market in the fall and winter has
the effect of inducing a greatly increased
acreage the next spring and surplus of
production the following fail. If the GOV
eminent were to pay a bounty of even
cent pound on cotton (and the same il
lustration will apply to wheaO the increase
in acreage the following spring would be
unprecedented. The first cotton crop aft
er the passage of the bounty law would
jump up to 1900, 900 or 15,O0O,0OO bales. And
what would go with the price? Naturally
it would drop "out of sight" The drop
would amount to more than the bounty
paid. AS result the foreign consumer
would get the benefit of the bounty and
the American farmer would get-ieft
American farmers are now producing
wheat and cotton for export, without the
aid of bounty law. Their products are
governed by the law of supply and de-
mand. They may not be growing wealthy
at the business, but the majority of them
are probably making a little more than a
living. The cotton farmers are beginning
to diversity their crops, and are doing
fairly we'll 1t would be the hight of folly
and bad policy to spring any such gold
brick scheme as a bounty system upon
them.

Let There he Moro Liubt.

The project of the city's owning an
electric light plant appears to have drop
ped out of the public mind The present
plan of lighting the city seems to be good
enough for the sitting board of aldermen.
The contract with the electric light com
pany, however expires this year. and this
administration should take steps to meet
any emergency which may arise. Mean
time there exists at the moment a neces-
sity for greater number of street lights
probably twice as many as are now used.
1t may be doubted if even double the num-
Der would be enough. And there are rea-
sons for thinking that the number of lights
could be increased to just about twice the
present number without the expense to the
city aggregating more than the present
cost of the lighting, under the existing
contract.
But in order to provide a greater number
of lights at no increase in cost, bids should
be called for in time to give bidders a
chance to provide plants, in the event that
a new party should secure the contract
IL is understood that the present contrac-
tors say they can do the work cheaper
than any other party, If that is true, then
the city should put itself in position to
secure that advantage by advertising for
bids i'm time for others to enter the field
and bring down the price of lighting the
streets. il may be costly to wait until
the last minute. 1t is within the memory
of men still young that the old gas COM
pany, when it had the contract for street
lighting, refused to abate its charge for
lighting, and the contract was given to
another company, which had to use gaso-
line lamps until it could make other ar
rangemnts.
OF course, in the event that the cleo
trio light company and the city could not
come 20 terms, recourse could be had to
other means Of illumination until anoth-
er electric plant could be established But
such troubles and complications might
be avoided by the parties at interest COM
ing TO an early understanding. The cleo
trio light company is a home enterprise,
and Is well managed, and every citizen
would rather see it prosper than not: but
1t is simply ordinary business sense to see
that the city is not left entirely in the
, companys hands.

A Postonce ForcibIy Removea

A postoffice inspector recently sent to
investigate the condition of some of the
postof1ces in the west has made report
to the department telling of a peculiar
condition of affairs at one of the offices in
the mining country of Montana. says the
New York Sun. Some years ago the de-
partment established an Office of the
fourth class for the convenience of persons
employed in neighboring mines at hamlet
built on the edge of one of the canons of
that state, but experienced difficulty in
getting a postmaster. The appointment
was finally accepted by an old man who
was willing to accommodate the miners.
No provision is made by the department
for lifting up fourth-class Offices and the
postmaster did not think it worth while
TO purchase letter boxes and other appur-
eenances. He found a worn-out tea caddy
and placed it on table in his cabin for
the reception of incoming and outgoing
mail. That was the postoftice. Every
miner was free to examine the letters and
papers in the caddy, and to take those ad-
dressed to HIMSELF and altogether things
We're run in very irregular way, with
a disregard for red tape shocking to the
department officials. The old man occa-
sionally sent in reports about the eondi-
ton OF. the office, as required by law. One
OF these showed that he was "a in debt to
the government, and the postofice inspec-
tor was directed to visit the Office to make
inquiry into the shortage. He found mat
tiers as described, the tea caddy forming
the only receptacle for mail and the post
master indifferent to it's disposition. He
demonstrated with the postmaster
Mister" said the old man, you've
came all the way from Washington to in
Vestigate the condition of this office
haven't you? Well, I've been trying to re-
sign this place for two years, but the gov
eminent won't let me. l don't know any
thing about that $4 and l don't care a
cuss about it, but l know that it cost
heap sight more'n 81 to send you all the
way out here. And 1 suppose you'll want
something to report about when you get

and the rebellious postmaster struck the
tea caddy blow that sent it out of the
window of his cabin and across the canon:

One on the Clerk.

When he related the incident in confiden-
tial whispers, and with guilty blush, to
a bosom friend the other day, Clerk Joe
Harper, the senior deputy at the police
court, really did not know that the facts
would ever appear in print, says an ex-
change.
Mr.. Harper recently purchased a new
spring hat al a bargain A few weeks
later the conviction dawned on the genial
oincial that he must either have his hair
trimmed or secure headgear of larger
proportions, inside measurements, the
former being plainly the more econom.-
cal proceeding. Mr.. Harper applied for
and was granted leave of absence from
the office for half a day. Letter, as he
was walking down the street, his eye rest
ed on a placard bearing the inscription,
"tlrst-class hair cut, Is cents"

story, he submitted to the tonsorial ar
fist and was entirely satisfied with both
the man and his effort Mr.. Harper ten,
