The New Administration.

Mr.. Myers and Maj e Meldrim spoke
kind words to each other yesterday as tho
former passed out Of office of mayor and
the latter passed in, We do not know if
these words were from the heart. 1t is to
be hoped they were, and that the new
administration will have the cordial sup
port of the defeated faction, and its lead
er. We say this because we believe it is
the very general desire of the people that
the contest between the two factions shall
not be enthusiastically not with the
ferceness and bitterness which has char
acterized it for the past two or three
years. If we are to have two factions an
altogether different spirit should be mani
tested by them. There is no occasion for
such annimosities as have cropped out
within the last year-animosities which
make it impossible for the people to work
together earnestly, enthusiastically and
effectually for the best interests Of the
city.
Mr.. Myers in taking leave of the mayors
office. declared that he had tried to do the
best he could for the city. We have no
doubt that he was sincere in making that
statement. The mistake he made was in
not following his own judgment. He
yielded to the demands of those who in
sisted he was under obligations to them.
and in complying with these demands he
aroused opposition that he would not
otherwise have had. He had of course,
to bear the blame for his mistake
Maj. Meldrim. in taking possession Of
the mayors office, said that the new adj
ministration had but one purpose in view,
and that was the city's advancement and
the city's welfare. We think all win agree
that that is the purpose of the new mayor
and council. That being the case they
should have the hearty support and good
viii Of every citizen. Let us see what
hearty cooperation of all her people can
do for Savannah during the next two
years. 1t Is in the power of the mayor
and the council to remove much of the bit
ter feeling that has been aroused by the
strife of the factions. Let them make
the most of the opportunities which will
present themselves for the exercise Of
their power in the direction Of harmonic
ing differences.

An interesting thing about Watts
"Wounding Heron" now on exhibition in
London, is that it was first exhibited at
that royal academy sixty years ago in the
year of the queens accession. 1t is be-
lieved that no other living artist can say
as much of any picture of his own. His
boyhood work was sold by Mr. Watts
years ago, lost sight of, and then repur-
chased by the painter for $25 from a
Scotch dealer
Alfred Quantin Mary, who died recent
~ in Paris, was serving as a lieutenant
of the National Guard at the Chamber of
Deputies in 1913 when it was invaded by
the uprising of the people. The Duke of
Charities and the Count of Paris, both chill
dren at that time, were present at the sit
ting. Lieut. Mary seized the Count of Pa
ris in his arms, jumped out of the window
with him and hid him at the Invalides.
Another lieutenant of the Guard did a SIM
liar service for the Duke of Charities.

The LIauorP Problem.


In the legislatures Of quite number of
states the liquor question is under con-
sideraton. The liquor problem is one that
has never been satisfactorily solved. and
it is doubtful If it ever will be. In the
February Atlantic Monthly there is a not
able article on "The Study OF American
Liquor Laws" by President Eliot Of Harv-
ard college. The article contains the OBJ
servatons and conclusions of a group of
distinguished men, among them Seth Low,
President of Columbia College, and James
c. Carter, the eminent New York lawyer
These men have been studying the liquor
and other social questions since 1863 with
the views to finding out what kind Of
reforms in these matters would be help
ful to society.
The conclusion arrived at from reading
President Eliots article is that all laws in
this country for checking drunkenness are
more or less failures. He is inclined to
think that the best results have been OBJ
tanned from local option. With reference
to prohibition he says that in Maine, and
in Iowa while the prohibitive law remain
ed in force in that state there have al
ways been counties and municipalities in
complete and successful rebellion against
the law" Some of the concomitant evils
Of prohibition, he states, to be as follows;
THE public have seen law defied,a whole
generation of habtual lawbreakers school,
ed in evasion and shamelessness, courts
ineffective through fluctuations of policy,
delays perjuries, negligences. and other
miscarr;ages of justice, officers of the law
double-faced and mercenary, legislators
timd and insincere candidates for office
hyocritical and trucking, and office hold
ers unfaithful 10 pledges and to reasonable
pubic expectation"
With all the other methods for restrain
ing the liquor traffic and checking drunk
enness President Eliot finds fault. Even
the dispensary system of South Carolina
does not have his approval. And there
is no reason why it should, because liquor
is sold freely in that state outside of the
disDensariSs. 1t is quite safe to say there
is about as much drinking in South Car
DINA to-day as there was before the dis
pensary system was established.
With reference to local option President
ElOL says Experience Win pIOuibitOiya
legislation has brought INTO clear relief
the fact that sumptuary legislation which
is not supported by local public sentiment
is apt to prove locally impotent or worse"
Again he says: The main advantage Of
local option is that the same public opinion
which determines the question of license
or no license is at the back of all the To-
/ fl,o
decided on"
President Eliots article IS well worth
studying by members of the legislature
of this state, at least those members who
are in favor of prohibition. They would
find in it much food for thought. They
would discover that it is a mistake to
attempt to force a prohibitory law upon
community that doesn't want it, and
/ that the cause of temperance has made
more progress under local option than un-
| der any other kind of legislation for rem
edying the evils of the liquor traffic.

I'm one of my races for congress-" said
Representative Cox, of Tennessee, accord
ing to the Washington Post, "the lines
were drawn very tight between my com
petitor and myself, and the partisans of
both were worked up to a pitch of excite
ment in every county in the district. In
some localities a good deal of bad feeling
had been engendereG and personal diff
culues were daily expected. One day
when l was filling an appointment to ad-
dress the people a tall, heavy-built fellow
with a bad eye and a general look as if
he were out for blood came up to me and
said in a loud and positive tone:
Cox, l want to have a little talk with
you
Il knew that he was an active supper
ter of my opponent, and also that he was
a man of very determined character.
Wondering what he had to say to me, and
withal being a little anxious on account
of his rough not to say threatening man
ner, 1 walked away with him to some lit
tie distance from the crowd. Then 1 stop
ped and tod him I was ready to hear any
thing he had TO say
d" See here Cox; I am going to put a
plain question to you, and if you answer
it square everything will be all right be-
tween us; if you don't everything will be
all wrong. Now, if you will promise me
to vote ag'in that - dog law, will vote
for you md make all my friends support
you. Is it a bargains?
Il assured him that if there was one
measure that 1 hated worse than any
other it was that odious dog law, and
that when I got to Washington I'd fight
it to the death. He kept his promise
and, as I afterward heard, worked Loyalty
to help elect me. 1 don't know whether
or not he got more light on the subject
subsequently, and discovered that it was
THE Tennessee legislature, instead of con-
gress, that had jurisdiction over the dos
law, but, anyway, if he ever found out
his mistake he didn't reveal the fact to
me. "

Many people about the national capitol
have commented upon the eupho1ious and
somewhat startling name of the principal
opponent Of Senator Dubois before the
Idaho legislature, since Judge Claggett' s
star began to wane, says an exchange.
Texas Angel is a name to conjure by,
and will certainly attract as much atten-
ton as the man himself if he succeeds in
getting into the United States Senate
Senator Shoup told the story of the name
yesterday, says the Washington Star. Mr..
Texas Angeles father was at one lime
a very prominent man in politics in the
Empire State, and represented in con-
gress that district which has more re-
Gently honored Rowland Blennerhassett
Frederick Mahany. In that congress tn =
question of the admission of Texas
into the union was a live issue. Mr..
Angel took an active and leading part
in the movement for admission, and was
so enthusiastic over the question that
when a son was born to him just after
the Lone Star State was admitted he
gave its name to the infant. A glamour
of romance and adventure then hung
over the broad region so recently wrest-
ed from Mexico and the elder Mr.. Angel
could not foresee the hard character
which was subsequently to be given TO
all its citizens by the writers of dime
literature, most of whom have never
been outside of New York

MIR. Rust Gets a Letter.

As curious a letter as has been received
in Kansas City for many months reached
the postoffice yesterday morning, and
after a great display of learning on the
part of some of the clerks, it was finally
delivered to the man for whom it was in
tended, says the Kansas City Times. The
distributing clerk, who first got hold of
the letter, looked at it in despair. 1t was
plainly evident that the writer of the lot
ter had been burning the midnight oil in
an attempt to battle the postoffice force.
The first line contained the letters, u.
S. FE2O3." The letters were plain enough,
but what did they mean? The next Inc
began with a large A, then there was a
carefully executed drawing of what mad
the appearance OF a BARRIERS comb, then
a small a, and finally representation Of
a house, drawn by one whose early educa-
ton had been sadly neglected.
What should have been the third line Of
the address was in the shape of a more or
less accurate map of Kansas
City, showing the junction and
the streets in that vicinity. The
last line was another map, showing
the boundaries of the state of Missouri.
1t was plain enough that the letter was
for some one who lived in the state of
Missouri and in Kansas City. 1t did not
take a great stretch of imagination to DIS
cover LildL the tOiIlD anu TIE ShGLEA VI L
house had some vague reference to the
Acoma building So far it was easy sam
ing. But who was the mysterious y. S.
FE2O3?"
After puzzling his brain for a long time
without any good result the clerk took
the letter to Mike Clerk Garfield, who is
supposed to be able to guess all sorts of
conundrums.
Il can tell you part of it," said he. 81
can ten Won that 'FF2O3' are The chemical
symbols for ferric oxide. Now, if you can
find out who he is you are all right"
Still the distributing clerk was unable to
solve the question. He went about ask
ing every one what he knew about ferric
oxide He finally encountered one man
who was more of a chemist than the 9th
ers, and he impaired to him the inform9-
ton that ferric oxide in common parlance
is called rust"
That is how J. S. Rust received the let
ter over which his friend in Conception,
Mo-, had spent so much time.

some Queer Renuests.

Congressman Mccall of Massachusetts
says that he recently received a letter
from one of his constituents asking him
TO send at once one good, healthy male
baby" quotes the Chicago Times-Herald.
This tends to highten our respect for a
congressman, because il suggests that his
duties ramify much farther than has gem
orally been supposed.
The secretary Of the Chicago Broad of
Trade, however received a letter awhile
ago from a Kansas man, who wrote:
"P.ease send me at once all news and all
facts about Chicago" Another westerner
wrote to say that he had forwarded a car
load of jack rabbits, and added: sell
them at once and forward the money as
1 need it right away"

The r.e Of slIver cor Money.

Commenting on the bill providing for
an international monetary conference the
New York Void says: "a majority Of the
people of the United States desire a larger
use of silver as money metal" Is this
statement correct?
If the World means that the people de-
sire that more silver and less paper
money shall be put in circulation the state
ment is not correct 1t is a very difficult
matter to keep in circulation the silver
dollars which the people now have IN their
possession. There many millions Of
silver dollars locked up in the treasury
which the Secretary of the Treasury can
not get into circulation. During cotton
picking time in the south and wheat and
corn harvesting time in the north a great
deal of silver is paid out to the laborers,
but only small part of it stays in cir
culation. The greater part of it Is ship
ped back to the treasury.
The treasury, in order TO get the silver
in circulation pays the expressage on ell
yer to any part Of the country. The
banks pay the expressage on it back TO
the treasury rather than have their vaults
filed with 1t. Does this look as II the
people desire a larger use of silver as
money metal?
AS a matter of fact very few people will
willingly accept as much as five dollars in
silver in change. The great majority of
them insist upon having their change in
paper money. They don't want silver be-
cause it is troublesome to carry. Ten sill
yer dollars become quite a burden If car
ried In the pocket a few hours.
We have no doubt that a majority Of
the people would be glad to have the sill
yer question so settled that silver and gold
money would circulate on a parity, but is
it possible to bring about a settlement Of
that kind? We do not believe it is. Mr.
Carlisle has demonstrated quite satisfac-
torily that the market value of the metals
changes with the volume of their produc-
ton, and that therefore, it is about i'm
possible to keep gold and silver money
on a parity at any ratio That being the
case, one or the other of the metals must
be the standard. The world has decrecd
that gold shall be the standard Gold is
the standard even in the countries whose
mints are open to the free and unlimited
coinage of silver, and all the indications
are that it will continue to be the stan
dard.
We have no objection to an interna .ional
monetary conference. In fact we rather
favor it, not because we think it will set
| tie the silver question, but because the
more that question Is discussed the clearer
1t will become that one or the other of
the metals must be the standard. Event
ually the silver question win settle itself
The yearly output of gold is steadily in
| creasing and the yearly output of silver is
slowly decreasing. Within a very few
years, If present conditions continue the
gap between gold and silver at the pres
I ent ratio will be closed or so nearly SO
that few will care whether our minis are
opened to the free and unlimited coinage
Of silver or not.
