Passes to Whom.

From the Atlanta News
The railroads have withheld free
passes from. delegates going to the
State Horticultural and Agricultural
Societies. They probably argue that
there is no reason for passing farmers
and fruit growers that would not be
equally good for passing delegates to
religious conventions and meetings OF
manufacturers. But are they going
to cut off the legislators passes? The
members of the Legislature are paid
mileage by the state at high rate for
the distance travelled between their
homes and the capital. is there any
reason why the railroads should pay
them mileage? Why do the railroads
nav them mileage? What is the quid
pro quo? Newspapers give valuable
consideration for the passes they get.
They give an equal amount OF adver-
Using space in exchange for the trans
portation, but what does the legisla-
tor give?
1t would be hard to answer these
questions satisfactorily. The legis-
lator cannot say that he gives any
thing without compromising himself.
Let it 90 at that; but is he going to
accept charity from the railroads:
Are they eteemosynary institutions
and is he an object of charity?
These questions show that the free
pass to the members of the Legislature
cannot be justified on any grounds
vet it is the last of the free passes to
go. Why is it so? That IS another
knotty question.
Thousands of passes for politicians
but not a pass for farmers!

STATES COTTON CROP SHORT.
Assistant Commissioner Wright Talks OF
the Condition of the Georgia Crop.

From the Atlanta Constitution
Unless some unforeseen and material
change occurs in the existing condl-
tions, the cotton crop of Georgia for
this year bids fair to approximate be-
tween a million and million and a
quarter of bales. The figures, how
ever, can be relied upon as calculating
from the standpoint of favorable con-
ditions. the extreme delicacy and ten
derness of the plant admitting of d
great variance between estimate and
results should adverse contingencies
arise.
From records of past years the
crop this year will probably be from
quarter to "a half million bales under
the weld of 1898, the largest years
crop the state of Georgia has ever
shown.
Following are the total crops in
Georgia for the past five years, as
taken from figures believed to be the
most reliable. Statisticians differ at
times in their estimates, but the fol-
lowing is accepted as being more near
Iy correct:
In 1897, number of bales, 1854, 900.
In 1898, number of bales, l,536,000
In 1899, mum Der of bales, l,250,0OO.
In 1900, number Of bales, l.345,OO
Assistant Commissioner of Agricul-
ture r. F. Wright said yesterday that
until recently the outlook for this
years crop was not encouraging, but
that the prospect has grown brighter
within the past few weeks under i'm
proved conditions. The improvement,
however, has not been sufficiently
great to bring the crop up to the
standard of last year.
''The conditions today" said Mr..
Wright, "are very much improved
over those of thirty days ago. The
coming of rain in some sections has
been the salvation of crops, although
in other sections, especially in south
west Georgia, the cotton is reported as
rusting. a protracted wet spell, how
eyer, might prove of greatest detri-
ment to the crop"

THE PROGRESS OF TEMPERANCE.

The Los Angeles Herald calls atten-

may be noted by consulting the status

temperance reform in the southern
states. For example, Kentucky is a
standing target for jokes about liquor
drinking because of its immense pro-
duction of whisky, but it is a fact that
of the "a counties of Kentucky only 4
permit the sale of liquor except on
physicians prescriptions. The big
state of Texas, which has q "wide-
open" reputation in the north, has l2O
prohibition counties. Georgia leads

REPUBLICAN APPEALS TO HIS PARTY

Ex-senator Chandler, at the head OF
the Cuban claims commission, is out
with an appeal to the republican party
to regulate the trusts. Mr.. Chandler
speaks out as loudly as though he were
not as utterly alone in his party in adj
vocating such ideas as is Mr. Babcock
in advocating tariff reform. He re-
hearses the evils that have arisen and
are arising through the formation OF
these gigantic monopolies.
1t is an extraordinary tribute to
the virility of democratic principles
that men like BabcOck and Chandler,
life long republicans both, should find
themselves forced to come over TO the
democrats for remedies against the
growing ills of monopoly. The pity is
that they do not dare TO change their
party emblem any more than McLau'
rim dares TO change his.

available stock on his places for the

He saws unless farmers economic in
use of grain from now on they will
have to pay $3.50 bushel for corn
next spring, which he says would
bankrupt Georgia farmers. He calls
on the newspapers OF the state to
preach this to the farmers On his
own farms Bradley has more than
enough corn to run him another year,
but says he wants to sell some if the
price goes o$1.50 Farmers can save
from $40 to $15 head on stock, he says,
by pasturing two or three months.
