WEST END ROAD MEETING.
Stockholders and Creditors to Dis
cuss Important Business To-day.

Stockholders and Creditors to Dis
cuss Important Business To-day.
There will be meeting of the stock
holders and creditors of the Suburban and
West End Railway at the office of the
secretary S. L. Lazaroh. Esq, at 4:so
o'clock this afternoon. While 1t Is stated
that the meeting is one of the most i'm
portant in the history of the enterprise
those connected with it are reticent as to
the exact character OF the business 10
come before it. Secretary Lazaron has
been absent from the city for a couple
of days and President Jacob Paulsen de-
clined to announce anything prior to the
meeting.
The West End road, as it is generally
known, runs from the city market 10
West Savannah. The line was intended
to be operated by electricity and poles
are In position and wires strung prac-
tically the entire length of the road. For
some time it was operated from the Cen
trail depot, its old terminal. to the stop
ping point in West Savannah by electric
ity under arrangement with the old Peo-
pies line. OF late, though its motive
power has been restricted to a mule or
two, the greater pare of the rolling stock
being laid up in West Savannah. As an
independent line, having no connection.
with the regular city lines, the enterprise
cannot be said to have so far been a sue
cess.
The company has franchises, though,
that would doubtless be of considera BILE
value to any company projecting
another railroad system for Savannah.
Some weeks ago il was stated that efforts
were being made to unite the Suburban
and West End ard the Thunderbolt tracks
of the Merchants and Mechanics Land
Company by an inside line. Nothing has
been heard OF the project recently, though.
and the probability of such project being
pushed through has not appeared bright.
1t may be that this has been revived or
that the present city system, the Savan-
nah, Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope, has
made some proposition which is to be con-
si1ered.

BUILDING UP PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Figures Show That Chatham Has Not
Neglected Educational Matters.

Neglected Educational Matters.
Few people have any adequate idea of
the great development that has been made
in the educational system of Chatham
county, and of the rapid increase that has
come III the expense to the public as
result of the efforts to put a common
school education within the reach of every
child, white or black. School are cost
ly items, but the benefits derived from
them have long since been accepted as
ample compensation for the sums provided
for their maini enance.
Chairman JsJ. Dale of the County Com
missioners,i in investigating county finances
recently, had a table prepared showing the
items that have made up the budget for
a number of years past. One of the most
interesting showings was that of the
amounts appropriated for schools. 1t
shows clearly that in educational matters
Chatham, so far as willingness to meet
the financial burdens involved, has not
fallen behind any of her sister counties
of the. state.
The statement referred to covered fif-
teen years. Tn that time the appropria-
tons for schools have Increased by 143
per cent, while the population of the
county has increased probably IS per cent.
In other words, the expenditures for edu-
cation have increased more than twice as
rapidly as the population. 1t is to the
munihcence, shown year after year that
the school system has been brought up to-
lis present state Of perfection and accom-
modations made for such a large proper
ton of the children of school age regard
less of co,or
The following table gives the appropria-
tons and the population Of the city year
by year, the population outside of the city
being comparatively small and not having
grown in anywhere near the proportion
that II has in the city. The population Is
from The directory censns.

TO buy would become smaller? We
would like to know how there can be
such thing as over-production of any
article necessary to mans we'll being,
when there is a lack of that article
among the people, and when they are
willing and anxious to work to obtain
it? There is something wrong with
this overproduction argument. Men,
willing to work, dying from hunger,
yet there is too much wheat People
suffering from cold, yet clothing is too
plentiful. According to this new philos-
ophy, when plenty rererses her horn
we have the greatest amount OF pros

to this, should pray in the coming
year: "Oh, Lord, don't overdo it!
Don't be too bountiful! Mr.. Marshal
tells US we would be better off with a
half crop. Please, Lord, don't run the
thing in the ground! Heretofore thou
hast given with too lavish a hand-so

to death. Men whom we pay to teach
US the laws of political economy and
commerce tell US that we SILVER be-

THE number of business failures is
steadily diminishing, and many now
occurring are not because of present
conditions, but grow out of the wreck
caused by the free-trade Wilson bill
Poplar Bluff Republican.
OF course, the Wilson bill is respon-
sible for it all. That was a most re-
markable bill! 1t made the panic of
1898, a year and half before the bill
became law, and long before a single
one of it's sections had been written.
The Mckinley bill, which preceded it.
seems to have been as weak as the
man whose name it bore-gOod for
neither past, present nor future. AL
though in full force and effect for three
years prior to 1898, it afforded no
shelter against the blighting effects of
law yet to be conceived and formula
ted. How weak and how strong were
these two opposing bills! But neither
so weak nor so strong as the prejudice
which could dictate or the brain that
would swallow such stuff as is set
out in the above paragraph.

If be would drop his prejudices the
Western Republican would know that
the reason for the present discrepancy
between the value of an ounce of silver
and of a bushel of wheat is due to short
crops in India and Argentina, and as
soon as these countries produce their
accustomed yield the old relation will
be restored. We request the advo-
Gates of the gold standard TO take the
average price of the ounce and the
bushel for ten-year periods and make
a test if they desire fair test of the
matter. This is precisely the test they
refuse to make.
