GEORGIA GLEANlNGS.

There is tax bill before the leg
islature that proposes to increase the
states revenues through the opera
ton of state board of assessors, sup
/ lemented by boards of county assess
ors. This is one way that never
fails to increase the revenues. 1t is
so easy to mark up values.
The Oldest person in the state is a
negro, 126 years old, living in Wash
ington county. 1t goes without
saying that he has never been pur-
sued by a mob. Negroes who do right
often live long time and prosper IN

SECTIONAL LEGIsLATION.

That the republican party proposes
in some way to recoup itself against
tho south in the matter of the increas'
e1 electoral vote the new census gives
this section we do not in the least
doubt. If figures are to be believed
certain republican stateswill lose votes
while democratic states show gains IL
was first believed that as an offset the
disfranchising of illiterate negroes oy
some states would be used TO re-
duce the south's representation AS a
matter of news it has been reported
that Mr.. Mckinley objects 10 this
method. but that he favors such Jug
cling with figures by the census eX-
nerts that the same end car be obtain
ed in another way.
Without doubt there will be an at
tempt to take from the south WhaC IL
has earned bv its growth, and the dem
ocratic minority in the fitty-seVenth
CONGRESS should make a determined
and stubborn fight against what Is
nothing more nor less than sectional
LEGISLATION. 1t is still the blaze OF the
unexpiring embers which burned with
a fierce fire in the sixties, and which
will be in existence until northern IN
