The Associated Press consists OF a vol
untary combination Of gentlemen, inter
ested or having money invested in the
publication Of newspapers, who are mu-
tuslly bound to assist each other m col
lecting and disseminating all kinds OF
legitimate news. without pecuniary COM
pensation OF profit, and at the actual
cost involved in the performance Of the
service rendered The field Is open TO
any or all newspapers outside OF the
combination. either alone or by like asso-
cation with each other. to procure the
same. or better, or any other news, or
so much or 50 little of it as they have the
ability td print Or the menas to pay for,
There Is nothing in the constitution or
law Of the land requiring the Associated
Press to share the joint product OF ths
brains and enterprise Of its members
with any non-association member. or 10
give it to the public otherwise than by
publication in the columns OF their own
newspapers. 1t wiz probably be found
on examination that this proposition was
not In issue before the ST. Louis court OF
appeals, or IL II was, thaS that court has
in no wise decided or hinted anything
contrary to it. That IS the. law, and it
must be so upheld and decided; If not in
the ST Louis courts, then in those Of the

ings at the conference of the British pre-
mier. the secretary Of the stale for India.
the first lord OF the treasury. and the
chancellor Of the exchequer wlol the
French AMBASSADOR and our commission
ers, has reached this country. It fully
confirms the reports cabled TO the Asso-
ctated Press on October p and %. Tne
negotiations fell through. notwithstand-
ing the expressed willingness Of the
French government 20 open its mints
owing to the rejection by the British gov
ernment Of the proposition to again open
the Indian minis 10 the free coinage Of
silver. None OF the other propositions
we're replied to. because that one, the
most important Of the concessions re-
quqested Of Great Britain cannot be ac-
ceded to- The government Of Great
Britain in making her answer deferred
to the wishes Of the government of India
to which the propose. was referred, and
the reply of the government Of India,
therefore is the most important commu-
nication in the correspondence. II is a
lengthy document in which the advant-
ages PRO and con to India are argued
and a very strong case from their stand
point is made out IN favor OF the reJec-
ton of the proposal. The disturbance Of
values in India with the attendant paral-
ysis of trade at least temporarily, the
fail of silver prices in India concurrenuy
with the increase Of gold prices in Eu-
rope and America, etc, are advanced.
but the most potent reason urged against
the proposition is that the burden OF fail
ure, If failure should come from the ex-
pertinent, for the establishment Of BIZ
metallism by France and the United
States must inevitably fall on India.

IMMIGRATION RESTRICTIONS.

Ths sentiment is rapidly increasing that
there should be legislative action in the
coming session Of congress to restrict
immigration. The fact has at last been
recognized by the labor organizations of
ten country that the price Of labor IS,
in its last analysis, governed b. supply
and demand, as is the price Of other
commodities. While tariff legislation and
other factors render It possible for the
Level Of wages in America to be higher
than in overerowded Europe. the rate
must decline inevitably If the supply of
labor is constantly increased by lmmi-
grafton.
The American labor field should be for
the benefit Of workingmen who are Amer
ican citizens, instead Of for aliens. and
this view viii be urged upon congress
by Hon. r V. Powderly the commits

The Brunswick times. [volume] (Brunswick, Ga.) 188?-1900, 1897-05-11

For, be il known, the Press has very
graclously noted the claims of Bruins
wick to the honor of celebrating the
Oglethorpe bi-centennial, and very
Justly says that in case Savannah fails
to take up thu idea nothing would
please that city better than to see
Brunswick successfully carry out a
fitting and handsome observance.
The reference of the Press to this
important matter is we'll worth repe-
tltion:
"We notice that the city of Bruins
wick has taken UP the idea of cele-
brating the 200th anniversary of Gen.
eral James OglethorpP, the great
founder of Georgia. THE BRUNSWICK
ZINES thinks the suggestion a good
one and has come to the conclusion
that there is no serious obstacle in the
way of grand Oglethorpe celebra-
ton in Bruins wick, which was planned
and founded by the illustrious general.
CHE TIMES is quite IN love with the
idea. 1t declares with enthusiasm
that such celebration would be
'singularIy appropriate 'All that
is required, says THE TIMES, rs the
united and plucky efforts of our cIti-
zens.' Brunswick is clearly deter
mined to successfully inaugurate and
carry out an exposition. The TIMES
correctly declares that 1T is not too
early TO begin work toward making
good the discrepancy with fitting
observan e of the 200th anniversary of
Oglethorpe's birthday
1.-The Savannah Press is glad to no
tIce that Brunswick has taken kindly
to this suggestion. 1t IS very evident
that the 200Lh anniversary of James
Oglethorpe should be observed in some
fitting way. We had hoped that the
city of Savannah would take up the
idea, but if this is not to be done we
should be heartily glad to have the
enterprislng men In Brunswick carry
out some fitting and handsome ObserV-
ance of this significant event"
The last sentence strikes the key
note. The matter is referred by Saw
annah to the "enterpris,ng men in
Brunswick" Will the "enterprising
men in Brunswick" accept the chal-
lenge, and show for once the energy
that Is in them?
1t is not too early. Let us organize
and begin work. Brunswick owes this
duty to herself, to the state, to the
memory of the man who planted the
struggling colony that grew into a
mighty commonwealth. All together,
citizens, for your town.
