As to the issues, that must depend

1t may be laid down primarily,
however that the democratic party
will never vary from its established
| fundamentals, n strict construction
of the constitution and an unswerv-
ing adherence to its principles and
an economically administered gov
eminent for the benefit OF the gov
erned. The silver question may
solve itself. Should the amount of
gold produced be q sample to main
tain a sufficient volume of metallic
money and insure the stability of
prices. the silverquestion will be sub
ordinated, but should the supply fall
short of the demands OF trade. the
silver question will be made promi
nent. The question of imperialism
may also find a solution outside the
ballot box. believe the supreme
court will decide against the Porto
Rican law. and should this be done
there will be a revulsion on the part
of the republicans themselves against
the retention of the Philippines. But
just what the issues Of 1904 will be
no one can predict with any degree
OF certainty.

SALT RATES WE'RE REDUCED.
Southern Express Company on the
WrlghtsviIIe and TenniIIe.


Atlanta, Jan. 5.-There was a short ses-
sion of the Railroad Commission to-day,
there appearing before it a delegation from
the Southeastern Freight Association, COM
posed of A. G. Jackson, general freight
agent of the Georgia; W. A. Winburn,
general freight agent of the Central; L.
L. McCleskey, division freight agent OF
the Southern, and r. A. Sans, divisic
freight agent of the Western and Atlantic
Railroad
The only two matters of Importance act
ed upon were the readjustment of the
salt rate and granting the Southern Elk
press Company the franchise TO operate
on trains over the Wrightsville and Ten
mile Railroad. Heretofore the only serv-
ice given the patrons of that railroad was
by the road itself, which was unsatisfac-
tory for the reason that they had to pay
charges to two companies. which prac-
tically amounted to a double charge.
Complaint against the salt rates was
filed by the Macon and Dublin Railroad
The commission has allowed some of the
smaller roads TO charge more than the
regulation rate on salt, and when applied
to carload shipments this would make the
rate for carloads more than the regulation
rites for hundred pound sacks in less than
carload lots. In the future these smaller
roads cannot exceed the latter rates
The commission is holding up its decis-
ion on the syrup rates at the request of
both the shippers and railroads until aft
er the meeting of the Rate Committee of
the Southeastern Association in New Or
leans on Jan. s, as an effort will be made
then to formulate rate that will meet
the approval of the syrup shippers If the
rate then adopted does not meet their ap-
proval, the commission will then take ac-
ton.
