SLAUGHTERING THE COLONIES.

The town of Suffolk, Va, down
on the Peninsula, where during
the war between the states so
many cory battles were fought,
there has been formed a Society
for the Suppression of Spurious
Titles" The society "has it in"
for those members of the commu-
nifty who arrogate to themselves
titles which they have never won.
1t IS move in the right direc-
ton. One does not have to travel
as far as Suffolk to find offenders

The action of the American
Steel Company in removing its
plant at McKeesport, Pennsylva-
MIA, is commented upon by the
papers everywhere as one charac-
teristic incident in the pending
gigantic conflict between capital
and labor. 1t emphasizes the fact
that the community has an inter-
est i'll strikes and that, through it's
officials representatives, it should
strive in every way possible to pre-
vent or stop them. By the loss
Of the plant, at McKeesport, that
city loses the benefit of large in
vestment and the distribution
among its citizens of a weekly
payroll OF $4,000. 1t seems to
indicate that those who favor
compulsory arbitration of such
conflicts have a show of sense and
reason in their arguments.

A negro preacher is quoted as
saying at the Emancipation Day
celebration i'll Wise county, Va,
the other day: Zone thing cam
not understand is that the same
white man who votes in Richmond
to take away the vote of the negro
will be the first man to help the
negro when he gets into trouble. :"
Another negro preacher, at the
same time and place, said: Il
like the Southern white man be-
cause he never changes. He is the
same in New Orleans, in Virginia
or in New York, while the North
ern white man changes as soon as
he reaches the sweet Southern sun
shine.

THE STATE RAILROAD.

The Western & Atlantic rail-
road was built by the state and
belongs to the state. Is leased to
the Nashville, Chattanooga & St.
Louis Railway Company for $685.
001 per month or $420,O12 per
year. Chairman Crenshaw, of the
Railroad Commission, is reported
to favor sale of it, and one of
the ingenious arguments that he
puts forward to support such a
policy is this: That since it is
now the property of the state, the
counties through which it runs de-
rive no taxes from it as they
would do if it belonged to pri-
vate corporation. The argument
is unique, and almost rises to the
dignity of being silly.
Suppose it were the property of
corporation, what taxes would it
pay? Let us test it by the taxes
that ether railroads pay. We
pass by the case of the Georgia
Railroad that pays practically no
taxes at all, and test it by the
Central, the Seaboard and the
Southern. Comparing it with
these we may safely assume that
it would be assessed at about one
and a half million dollars. At
this valuation it would pay the
state i'll taxes about $4,000 year
and to the six or eight counties
through which it passes about that
much more. $4,000 as against
$420,012 is certainly not all at
tractive proposition. But suppose
it were taxed at its full value.
which is at least y million dol
lars. Of course it would not be
taxed at that price, though it
ought to be. But suppose it were,
what would be the result? The
state would get about $72, 900 and
the half dozen counties along the
railroad about eight or nine thous-
and dollars each, a total of per-
haps $4,000 per annum, as
against $420,000 or three times as
much under the present system.
The present rental is divided up,
one half to the general expenses
of the state, and one half to the
school fund. AS half the school
fund is divided among the coua-
ties, there is about 81 800 year
of the state road rental now that
goes on an average to each one of
1877 counties. Under the noble
scheme of finance proposed by
Mr.. Chairman Crenshaw we would
substitute for this about 81 900
year each to half a dozen coun-
ties, and against the states share
of $4,000 now received, we would
get about SO, 900.
This is indeed great financiering
and Chairman Crenshaw should
he made Secretary of the treasury
to.the United Universe.
But suppose we did pay it on
the public debt. The saving would
be $3.50, 900 this year and less for
every subsequent year. The pub
lie interest charge is diminishing
quantity and will continue to dis
appear as long as the constitution
OF 1877 remains unimpalred, the
bulwark of the treasury gates.

Toombs, 1--WE locked the treasury
door and threw away the key"-a

The Beaumont, Texas, district
is somewhat perplexed, The peo-
pie there have more oil than they
know what to do with. The great
est tronble is that there is not n
sufficient demand for the product
to keep the supply down. About
$4,000 barrels day are shipped
ont, while the capacity of the
wells already completed is nearly
10000 barrels per day. There is
a great need for more storage
plants and foreign export mar
ket, and till these are secured it
is hardly worth the while of the
Beaumont people to drill any more
wells.

Henry NJ. Flagler has at last Sc

Usually So.


Nation, who is only known from
the fact that he is the husband of
Mrs. Carrie Nation, has brought a
suit for divorce from his wife,
alleging as reason that she has
deserted him, and no longer at
tends to her duties as mistress of
his household. One or two Others
of these same Kansas "strong-
minded" new women Ct do not
now recall their names) have also
been treated in the same way by
their mortified and disguised hus-
bands who, when they took unto
themselves wives, thought they
were marrying everything that
woman stands for in nature and
in reason, who have now awaken
to the fact that as "All is not
gold that glitters, so also all who
wear dresses and have long hair
are not women IN the highest
sense of the word.
In politics it is found that two
parties in a country are essential
to preserve the balance of public
virtue and to promote the best in
terests of the commonwealth and
of the individual. Their opposing
views and their action and reac-
ton upon each other subserves
their object i'll an admirable man
ner. So also in the home, there
must be diversity or there cannot
be complete domestic happiness
not the diversity, however, which
sets the man and wife at logger
heads with each other, but the diff
ference of temperament, of man.
ner, of thought and action which,
Notwithstanding their contrariety,
can lead to to perfect unity of life.
If women are to become men in
their thoughts, ideas and feelings,
the balance-wheel of the home
and of the body polite will be
broken and we shall be launched
upon such a sea of radicalism,
setting at naught the experiences
of time immemorial, that the very
foundations of society will be
overthrow.
How humiliating it must be to
Mr.. Nation and the other hus-
bands of the Kansas strong
minded" women to have their
wives cooIly usurp the headship of
their respective families, while
co7signing to their husbands du-
ties which, by right and nature,
belong only to women. No man
with spot of self-respect and
pride of sex would submit to such
a thing without a protest; and it
is therefore not strange that we
see these unfortunate men APP
pealing to the courts to be pro-
tected in the rights which nature
has conferred upon them. This
is the usual sequel of mismated
alliances.
The "strong-minded" women of
Alabama recently attempted to
have inserted in the constitution
of that state, now being formed, a
provision giving women owners of
property the power to vote in mu-
! nicipal elections where it may be
proposed to issue bonds by such
corporations. The provision was
adopted, but after thinking over
the matter, the convention almost
unanimously voted to repeal it.
1t was considered TO be the enter
ing wedge for unrestrained woman
suffrage. Kansas, Colorado, Wy
oming, Utah and Idaho should be
object lessons, i'll this respect, for
the other states of the Union.

Through Crop Country.

Mr.. Gardner z. Dickinson returned
yesterday from a business trip
throughout Central and Northern
Georgia, and also into many important
sections of the Carolinas. At Augusta,
Macon and other large cotton shipping
cities in the interior, and at the more
important towns in South Carolina he
talked with cotton men, whom he found
encourgade over the outlook for the
new season.
The plant in many sections OF Geor-
gia is tender, said Mr.. Dickinson,
which is due to the excessive rains.
While the outlook is encouraging on
the whole. the plant has not fruited
satisfactorily everywhere, and some
complaint IS heard among farmers. In
the Carolinas the crop is less prom
ising than it is in Georgia, and the
chances are by no means favorable for
good yield in that state. ...--A--~-.-
