BAY STREET PROPERTY.

The announcement that another large
concern will remove from Bay street to
the Central of Georgia Railways ware
houses in order to have greater facilities
for handling merchandise, brings up
again the question of the effect of such
removals upon Bay street property. The
change of base of such large business
firms is a matter of more than personal
interest; it is one affecting the whole
city. The firms that change location will
continue in Savannah, and do as much
business as ever; but IL such changes go
on the rental value OF the property will
hardly remain as great. Doubtless the
firms I'm question would have remained on
bay street If the railroad projected for
that street not long ago had been con-
structed. Possibly some of those who at
that time objected to a railroad on the
Bay are now sorry they did it. However,
it is not yet too late to remedy the sit
uation by building the railroad. There
are several routes that single track
might take And it is we'll to bear in mind
that Bay has been relieved OF much of
it's traffic by the paving OF Bryan and
Indian streets. A line could be run
through Bay street. West Broad, Olive
and Mill streets and Indian street lane.
From West Broad the track could be laid
through Williamson and Bay streets. OF
Bay street lane; or the route could be
through Pine and ST. Julian streets to
Montgomery and thence to Bay, thus oc-
oupying only one block OF the latter
street before reaching the wide part OF
Il. From Jefferson street there is suf-
hcient room on the north side of Bay for
half dozen tracks II a railroad were
built on Bay street only as far as the
City Exchange 1t would be Of great bene-
fit. and at least maintain the status,
Property owners and merchants interest
ed in Bay street should make another ef-
fort TO have the railroad built. The city
should also take hold OF the matter. AS
1t cannot afford TO witness the deteriora-
ton OF some Of It's most valuable prop
erty.

PERSONAL.

In DR.. Won Miguel, who has just been
raised by Emperor William to a seat in
the Prussian House of Lords, the lower
house loses one of the most eloquent min
listers who ever addressed it. This facil-
iry of speech he owes to his French or
igin, for MIGUEL is of Huguenot descent,
like so many soldiers and statesmen who
have made their mark on Prussan his
tory.
Miss Letitia Semple, daughter of Pres
ident Tyler and so a former mistress of
the White House, is diving in Washington
and was present at the reception given to
Mrs. Daniel Manning and the Daughters
of the American Revolution. She was
spoken of as the little lady in black,
with a Quaker bonnet" for few knew
her. She has for years been an inmate
of the Louise Home, established by
Banker Corcoran in memory of his wife
and daughter and endowed for the benefit
of gentlewomen of Southern birth who are
in reduced circumstances.

A THIRD TERM FOR MIR. MCKINLEY

1t is a question whether public men,
when talking for publication, believe all
they say. There is a suspicion that some
of them at least, say things they would
promptly deny if such things should prove
to be embarrassing at some future time.
1t is not unusual for a public man TO
deny the correctness of an interview when
it suits his purpose to do So
For instance, ex-senator Charles A.
Towne of Minnesota, who was nominated
for Vice President on the Populist ticket
in the last campaign and resigned in
favor of Mr.. Stevenson, said in an inter-
view in the New York Herald a day or
two ago, that he believed the Supreme
Court decisions in the Porto Rican case
meant that an attempt would be made
By the Republican party to elect Mr..
Mckinley for a third term. 'They mean
an attempt at concrete Imperialism
within the next four years"
He declared that he knew that the
question of running Mr. Mckinley for a
third term had been seriously considered
by a group of Republican politicians. He
pOlnlHu out LildL tue INtpupllCdh
gers had deceived the people into electing
Mr. Mckinley at the last election by ere
atng the impression that there were I'M
settled complications, and that, therefore,
there ought to be no change in the head
of the government. In his opinion the
chaotic" decisions in the Porto Rican
cases will be used to create similar i'm
preston when the time comes again for
electing President. According to Mr..
Towne, similar tactics were employed to
make Augustus Emperor of Rome and
Napoleon Emperor of France.
Mr.. Towne is so full of this idea that
he insists that the Republican leaders
have tried to make the presidency linn
tied monarchy, and that if the Porto
Rican decisions turn out to be just what
he thinks they are they will endeavor to
make the presidency an absolute mon
archy.
Mr.. Towne is a man who has the con-
fidence of public men who know him in
a marked degree, but it can hardly be
possible that he wishes the public to be-
lieve that he is sincere in what he said in
the interview from which the foregoing
extracts are taken. A good deal of allow
ance is made for party feeling, but there
does not seem to be any ground for the
insinuation that the decisions in the Porto
Rican cases were rendered with the
view of advancing what is said to be inn
perialism. Neither is there any good rea-
son for thinking that there is a move
ment to make Mr. Mckinley President
for another term The Republican lead
ers are too shrewd politicians to go coun-
ter to public sentiment on the third term
question.
We have no doubt that there are
among the Republican leaders those who
would use any means to keep their party
in control of the government, but they do
not look upon third term as the road
to success. Mr.. Towne has permitted po-
litical feeling to cloud his judgment.

The Georgia syrup business ought to
be given increased impetus at the State
Fair. There are fifteen or more counties
tributary 10 Savannah in which a fine
quality OF cane Is grown and excellent
syrup made. Each one Of these counties
ought to send an exhibit OF its cane its
syrup and IT'S sugar. This would arouse
interest IN an industry that has not yet
received the attention that Il deserves,
and which Is capable OF pouring millions
OF dollars into this section each year. An
instructive aud valuable exhibit would be
a small plant on the grounds for grinding
the cane boiling the juice and bottling
the syrup. suoh plant, under dircc-
ton or a competent man, would give hun
drods OF farmers information with re-
speot 10 the production Of high grade

His Majesty the Sultan of Turkey
seems to be yielding, to some degree, in
his attitude towards the Zionist colonial
ton movement. Two weeks ago a Con-
stantinople dispatch said that DR.. Theo-
dore Herzl, with Representatives of the
Rothschilds and Bleischroders, had ar
rived there to offer a loan to the Sultan
tine colonization project. A day or two
ago another dispatch announced that Dr..
Herzl had been graciously received by the
Sultan, who had decorated him and pre-
scented him with valuable gifts. 1t was
also stated that Dr. Herzl had obtained
valuable concessions towards the colonial
ton project.

The parish of St Bernard, in Louisiana,
has voted to levy upon itself special tax
OF flve mills for road building purposes.
Only property owners were permitted to
vote in the election, under the law, and
there were but two dissenting ballots cast.
The money raised will be devoted to build
ing roads upon the most improved plans,
and the tax viii be continued until the
parish has a complete system of modern.
permanently hardened highways. This
example might be probably followed by
counties throughout the South.

The Tattnall Times is doing good work
in urging the farmers of Bulloch to make
a big exhibit at the coming State Far.
With little effort on the part of her
people. Bulloch could no doubt enter
prize-winning lot of her products. What
she is capable of doing was shown at
the Atlanta fair, when, through the eff
forts of one man, Col. Moore OF States
boro, she won 500 prize for agricultural
products. The Times makes the excellent
suggestion that a sea island cotton gin
be run in connection with Bulloch's ex-
hibit. That would, indeed, prove an at
traction. There are comparatively few
persons, even in our own section of the
country, who ever saw a sea island gin
at work. They may know all about the
preparation of short staple cotton for
market, but they know nothing about
the preparation of the long staple.

Professor M. H. Holt, when in
Raleigh last week, took a stroll over
the Capital City, among the several
objective points he had in view
being the house in which President
johnson was born, on Cabarrus Street.
He found it, he says, not only q
small, obscure structure, but in bad
repair and unkept. He suggests that
the patriotism Of the people of Raj
eigh should cause them to secure
the lot and house and preserve it as
monument to what poor strug-
Cling, friendless boy can accom-
plish under a government like ours.
The suggestion is good one, and
we trust it will meet with such a
response as it deserves.

in q mighty hurry to arrange places
for many Of its supporters, and
among the first things il did xas to
begin to provide for more judges, So
licitors and clerks. A part of this act
has just been declared .'unconstitu-
tional" In spite Of the fact that an
effort was made BY the legislature Of
1901 to impeach the court for de-
claring unconstitutional some of the
acts Of 899;
There has been no such thing a. q
Superior Court la Asheviile since
the term held by Judge Shaw.
That Is what the Supreme Court ot
North Carolina says, and what the
Supreme Court says In matters Of
this kind goes.
As has been stated, there has all
along been some question ~ 10
whether Judge Jones could legally
hold court at this time. To put the
matter briefly, the general legisla-
ture act creating the 10th judicial
district does not 90 into effect until
July rs, although Judge Jones was
some weeks ago appointed as the
judge of that district.
The business Of the court, which
has been in session since last week,
was brought to a sudden termina.
ton yesterday afternoon by the fol-
lowing telegram, received by Judge
Jones from Attorn y General Gil
mer:
"Opinion filed reversing judg-
ment. Court holds no judge in six
tenth district"
The opinion referred to is in a
larceny Gaze, which was sent up last
week as test case.
OF course this sudden stay of pre-
ceedings is great disappointment,
IS the docket is very heavy; and, not
only has all the work Of the court
been for naught, but there is con-
siderable lOss' to the county-not
less than $500. Two men who had
been convicted and sent to the chain
gang were yesterday afternoon re-
turned to Jail by the sheriff. One
of the perplexing questions that has
arisen is, can those who have been
acquitted be tried again?.
Sheriff Lee doesn't know what to
do with the Emma burglars, as it
now seems that the order for their
removal from the Charlotte Jail was
no order. The case was to have been
tried yesterd ~ afternoon, and spe-
cial venire of $50 had been ordered.
This is the second venire that has
been ordered for the trial Of these
men.
Court did not adjourn-it just
"stopped."
Judge Geo. Jones, who was com
missioned judge of the 18th district
and was holding the court, was or
the bench when the telegram came
Some one asked him how court
should be adjourned 81 don't know
gentlemen" he said, and took his
hat and left the court room.
