MIR. Depew's station.

A Baltimore man in London says that
at a recent banquet Mr.. choate sat next
to a distinguished nobleman, who, during
the course of the conversation, had occa-
sion to inquire:
"And TO what station in your country,
Mr.. Choate, does your Mr.. Chauncey NJ.
Depew belong?"
ITO the Grand Central Station, my lord, "
culver.
The noble Englishman's face clouded for
a moment with uncertainty.
I'm afraid you don't know what /
mean" added Mr.. Choate. about to go to
his rescue. But MILFORD quickly smiled
a glad smile of intelligence.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New York Evening Post Qnd says:
THE situation in Kentucky improves,
day by day. Both parties now seem more
and more disposed to leave the decision of
the controversy to the courts. There is
no other path of safety for a civilized COM
munity. Taylor, the Republican Govern
or, is a flighty man, and he was badly
advised at first. but he appears at last TO
have comprehended that his appeal to
force was a blunder, which only escaped
being a crime through the fortunate avoid
ance of a bloody collision between the
forces which were arrayed against each
other"
The New Orleans Picayune Oem) says;
THE trust evil can be controlled and
cured If wise and brave and honest and
patriotic men are set to deal with It. Then
let the people choose their best men to
represent them in national and state Leg
islatures, and cease to heed the voices
and to follow the leadership of dema-
gogues. The issue of socialism against
private property has been made. If car
red out to Its logical and inevitable con-
clusion, IL means the downfall of human
society into chaos and in sea of blood"
The Richmond Dispatch Oem) says:
Our friend, the enemy, named Ryan. is
now engaged in the unlovely task of let
ting fly Parthian arrows at the Seaboard
Air Line consolidation he has been unable
to halt, but his bolts fall harmless. We
have hopes that he will eventually be able
to see for himself how very wrong he has
been in the whole matter"
The Chicago Chronicle (Dem.) says: IF
Judge Taft-appointed to frame civil
code for the Filipinos-shall use the power
OF the federal court i'm which he sits 20
aid the fragrant usurpation in Kentucky
he will show how unfit he is 10 discharge
the duty assigned for him in our colo
MES. "

A LITTLE DAYLIGHT FOR ENGLAND.

The announcement from Lord Roberts
that Gen. French had succeeded in reliev-
ing Kimberley was the first news London
had received from South Africa for long
time that caused the people there TO re-
joice. They have been receiving bad
news from that source so dong that they
had begun to wonder whether they would
ever receive good news.
The tone of the speeches of such men as
Lord Rosebery. the Earl of Kimberley
and other members of Parliament indicate
that there is very depressed feeling in
England over the situation in South
Africa. 1t seems to be admitted on all
hands that it is by no means certain that
the empire will be able to conquer the
Beers. If 1t should not, and Great Brit
ain were compelled to recognize the indie
pendence of the two Dutch republics, the
British empire would lose the proud place
it now occupies among the nations. The
| colonies would receive shock that might
cause the empire TO crumble.
| IL not interfered with by other nations
| the British may ultimately triumph in
| South Africa. The temper of the people
is in favor of making every necessary
| sacrifice in the effort to force the Beers
to accept Great Britain's terms but there
is grave apprehension that there will be
interference. Russia's movement in the
direction of Persia would have called forth
| a protest from Great Britain before this
| If it had not been for the South African
| complca ton. 1t is evident that Russia
has chosen time when Great Britain's
hands are tied TO extend the boundaries of
her empire in direction that menaces
| British interests.
Nh Great Britain is not in a position to
| take an aggressive attitude towards Rus
sia. She has no soldiers she could spare
for war with that Power, and she could
not wholly depend on her navy. Therefore
she has to submit to Russia's aggressive
ness in silence. Unless the relief of Kim
berley is followed by victories which prom
Use speedy and successful ending of the
war the rejoicing in London, caused by
the relief of Kimberley, will not last very
/ long.

Cotton farmers could do no better than
TO spend a day cogitating upon the state
ment Of President Brown of the Georgia
State Agricultural Society. which we pub
lished yesterday. I'VE have just sold a
crop of 100000 bales for more than H. $50 :
900 bales brought the preceding year" he
said, land il is more than a 100000 crop
will bring this year, If we make one that
big" 1t has been repeatedly pointed out
10 the farmers how a small crop Is. more
profitable than large one, and why. II
is sincerely to be hoped that individual
cupidity will not lead to the planting Of
larger acreage this year, when the situa-
ton Is 50 well in the hands Of the pro-
ducers.

Public opinion in New York seems to
be generally against the verdict in ,the
Molineux case. One manifestation of this
is seen in the proposition to raise by pop
ular subscription fund to be presented
TO Gen. Molineux TO be used in the fight
for his sons life. Such a manifestation
of favor towards one convicted of muir
der is very rare But is not the sympa-
thy for the General rather than for the
convicted son?

The publisher of our esteemed and
sprightly contemporary, the Congressional
Record, has been sued for damages by
Inc publisher of copyrighted book, 1.-The
Tariff Riddle" 1t seems that some con-
gressman, under leave to print" had in
serted into the Record, as a part of his
speech or otherwise the text of the book
in question. The publisher of the book
had arranged to sell the Republican Cam
paign Committee 10000 copies, but when
the meat of it appeared in the Record,
and could be circulated through the mails
free of cost, as pub. doc" the commit
tee refused to buy. 1t seems 10 us, upon
first view, that the publisher of 1.-The Tar
if Riddle has good case.

1t is not to be forgotten that the new
currency bill passed the Senate, as it did

the Republican party.

Among the novel American exhibits at
Evening Post will be that of a new in
dustry I'm Minnesota, not yet two years
old, which is converting into many use
full and ornamental articles the familiar
wireSrass of the American swamps, there
tofore considered worthless. In this
unique exhibit viii be furniture, the grass
taking the place OF. reed, rattan or willow;
screens, baby Carriages baskets, jardin-
iere bowls and mating. The material is
described as light. beautiful, elastic ana
enduring" II is hardly to the credit of
this section of the country to say that,
while we have known of the beauty and
utility of wiregrass in manufactures for
a hundred years, and have thousands of
acres of it available we have done moth
ing towards developing an industry in IT,
From time immemorial baskets of various
patterns have been made of wiregrass in
Georgia; and that they are durable is ev-
idenced by the fact that there are hum
dreds of them in use to-day that were
made when grandmothers or great-grand-
mothers were girls. But 1t seems never
to have occurred to any of US that the
material might he used wherever rattan
willow can, for furniture, etc. The
grass is so plentiful in the southern part
of this state that the section is called
"wiregrass Georgia" nevertheless, we
have permitted Minnesota to take the lead
of us in turning wiregrass TO profit.

DROWNED IN MILL RACE.
Harvey j Burlington OF this
place Found Dead Tuesday.

Tuesday afternoon about one
O'Clock as A. II. Gilbert was walk
ing along Ulsh's mill race, he dis
covered a human body in the water.

billty upon himself, he sounded the
alarm. "A. q. Bashoar, II. H..
Bower, Wincy Custer and John
Bolender hastened up and dragging
the body ashore discovered it was
Harvey Burlington of Franklin.
An examination readily disclosed
that life was extinct. A coroner's
jury was empanelled who rendered
verdict of accidental drowning.
MIR. Spiegelmeyer, division boss,
saw him about ten o'clock in the
morning. He walked along the
railroad track toward the place
where he was found. lie probably
lay down near the bridge at the
dam. The grass was pressed down
near the edge of the bank which
leads to the belief that he lay down,
fell asleep and rolled into the water.
His hat was found at this place while
the body had hoated about 200 yards.
There were no marks of violence,
and the body must have been in the
water over two hours.
After the inquest the body was
taken TO the home of his mother,
He was about2S years of age, single
and lived at home. The accident
caused considerable excitement. Ths
sympathies Of the community go ou
