The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1897-11-30

We infer from what Representative Mel
drim said in an interview published in
the Morning News yesterday. that the leg
islature is not going to settle the convict
question at this session. An extra session
must be called if this legislature settles
the question.
What will an extra session cost? Surely
not less than $4,000. This extra burden is
to be put on the people for the reason that
the members of the legislature refuse to
take hold of the convict question earnest
ly and seriously. They complain they
haven't time. What did they do the whole
of last week? If they had attended to
their duties instead of going to their
gress with the convict question. They
practically throw away Saturdays and
Mondays and often waste great deal of
time on other days.
It is not as if this convict question were
a new one. 1t has been before the people
for several years, and this legislature was
elected with the understanding that it
would settle it. The penitentiary commit
tee composed of a very large number of
the members of the House considered it
for number of days during the early fall
but reached no conclusion that satisfied
the majority of the committee. Neither
the House nor the Senate has taken hold
of the question earnestly. Each house
has wasted the greater part of the ses-
sion thus far in trying to undo what some
previous legislature has done and in pass
ing petty local bills.
II the legislature adjourns without set
Ting the convict question the people will
feel that thousands of dollars of their
money has been wasted. and that less
frequent meetings of the legislature would
be blessing.

sculptor Higby,s scheme.

The scheme of Mr.. Highly, the Chicago
sculptor, to construct a statue of the Pres
ident in gold for the Paris exhibition in
1900 promises to cause the President
good deal of worry. If there were no
strong reasons against the scheme he
would be only too glad of such an oppor-
tunity to have himself Brought so promi-
nently to the attention of millions of peo-
pie from all parts of the civilized world.
1t would be a great thing to. be the only
man of whom a statue in gold was ever
made, and doubtless the President would
like to have that distinction. There are
reasons, however, why he will hesitate to
give his consent to the Highly scheme when
the sculptor calls upon him to get it. He
is much more anxious to have a second
term than he is to have a statue in gold
made of himself, and being pretty shrewd
politician he is afraid that gold statue
would be turned into political capital by
his political enemies. The populists and
silverites would want no better campaign,
material than that which a gold statue of
the President would provide them with.
They would not stop at calling him gold
bug: they would assert that he had the
gold fever so badly that he had statue
of himself made of that metal. He would
be held up to the public as a man who
thought himself so much better than the
average man that he was not satisfied, as
other mortals are,with a statue of marble
or bronze Only gold would satisfy him.
The Presidents friends are telling him
what a mistake it would be if he should
approve the Highly scheme.
He hesitates, however. to accept their
advice. He would like to think that he
can have the statue made without losing
any of his popularity.

DeveIopnlent of the south.

Mr.. n. F. Thompson, the secretary Of
the Johnstown (Pa) Board of Trade, is
making a persistent effort to awaken in
the north interest In the development of
the south. His letters on the subject.
published in the Press and Times of Phila-
delphia, show that he is very much in
earnest.
Mr.. Thompson has the correct idea about
the southern states. He believes that they
are certain to grow rapidly in wealth and
population, because they have vast nat
ural resources. They offer advantages
superior to those of the west or the east,
to farmers. miners and business men.
Possessing a rich soil. great mineral de-
posits, particularly of iron, and a superb
climate. they cannot help making rapid
progress. Their prospects for manufac-
turing are extremely promising, and man
ufacturing industries of one kind and an
other are being established from the Po-
tomac to the Gulf. 1t cannot be many
years before the greater part of the souths
cotton will be needed to supply the de-
mands of southern mills. Already Ala
bama and Tennessee are making iron at
less cost than 1t can be manufactured
elsewhere in the world.
Mr. Thompson says there are thousands
of men in the north-men of small means
who would like to settle in the south,
but that they are afraid they would no,
be well received. This belief that north
ern people are not well received in the
south is a remnant of the prejudice that
was excited in the north by the repubii-
can newspapers because the southern peo-
pie would not permit ignorant negroes to
run state. county and municipal govern
ments. Those papers printed all sorts of
statements relative to the treatment which
northern men received in the south, but
they neglected to say that these northern
men were using the negroes to get into
offices where they could plumber the peo-
pie. But the carpet-bag period has
passed. The negroes admit they are not
fit to be the governing class and nobody
ever hears now that northern man is
denied the privilege of supporting the
party of his preference and of voting as
he pleases,
If Mr. Thompson will send to Georgia or
Florida some of the men he knows who
want to come south they will find their
surroundings here just as pleasant as they
are in Pennsylvania. Western people are
coming to Georgia every day and buying
homes for themselves. There are many
thousands of them in the state now, and
there will be tens of thousands of them
before the next presidential election.

The Parisians would not take a barrel
of big, red apples for the Dreyfus- Ester
hazy scandal. 1t is precisely the sort of
sensation they like, embracing lots of
mystery, some official intrigue, and the
spice of national feeling between the
French and Germans. The matter has ap-
parently reached such a stage that the
government will have to give Dreyfus a
new trial. and the people will demand that
there be no star chamber proceedings when
the cause comes up again. The period of
duels and suicides will probably be reacn-
ed before a great while.
