Il was in Washington once" said
man at the club. according to the
New York correspondence of the
Cleveland Plain Dealer, when Tom
Reed was the car of the House of
Representatives He was holding
forth with earnestness on some theme
to a group of friends, when that man
you see over there by the cigar count
er pushed his way through the crowd,
grasped Reed by the hand and said eff
fusively, Hello, Tom, old boy, how do
you do.?'
Reed responded in a manner that
was more of a shake for the man than
for his hand, and went on with his
talk. When our friend over there had
edged out of the crowd, some one said,
You didn't seem to be happy over him,
Reed. Who is your friend, anyway"
Reed drawled out, He's a fellow
from New York who knows more men
who don't want to know him than any
other man in the United States'"

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND
TRUSTS.

An important part of the Presidents
speech at Pittsburg on July 4. was that
in which trusts were dealt with. 1t is
evident from what he said that he felt
that an apology for the failure of Con-
gress to do anything to limit the pow
er of trusts and make them less men,
acing to the interests of the people was
needed. He said that great damage
might be done to the industrial inter-
ests of the country by hasty and ILL
considered action. In his opinion much
might be done to lessen the evils of
trusts by proper regulation and super
vision, but that it would be a mistake
to deal with trusts in a spirit of ha-
tired or malice. To deal with them
rashly and recklessly might be pro-
ductive of disaster that would rock the
country to it's foundations.
OF course all this is true, but as far
as known there is no disposition to deal
with trusts with reckless haste and in
spirit of hate and malice. The people
nave never asked for anything in con-
nection with trusts except that they be
required to comply with the law. 1t
has been quite a number of years since
the antitrust law was enacted, and it
has been practically dead letter. A
couple of feeble attempts have been
made to enforce it within the last six
months, but there seems to be doubt
that the suits which have been begun
yAri11 Iaa teI11 IL
dict is obtained. Even in the cases in
which civil suits have been instituted
it is thought there should be criminal
prosecutions.
Neither the administration nor the
Republican party therefore can claim
that it has been proceeding against
trusts with sufficient vigor to inspire
the belief that it is in earnest. At the
recent session of Congress the Demo-
Gratis wanted two things done, namely,
the antitrust law amended, so as to
make it more effective, and the tariff
on articles produced by trusts reduced
so that trusts would not be able to rob
the people. To neither of these things
"N"iV tite iSePupHCdl maturity agree.
In the light of these facts it is a fair
inference that what the President said
at Pittsburg about trusts was in the
nature of an apology for the short
comings of the Republican party in
dealing with trusts. He would have
rendered his party better service if he
had said nothing whatever about them.
In view of the record of that party
in regard to trusts there is nothing the
President can say on the trust question
that would do it any good. What is
needed to convince the country that
the Republican party is sincere in its
opposition to trusts is action not apollo

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Norfolk CVa.) Landmark Dem.)

Gratis have abandoned Organism.
Good,"
The following comments on the plat
form Of the Georgia Democracy, adopt
ed by the recent convention, will be
read with interest:
The Charleston Is. c. Post Dem !
says: Even the Georgia Democracy
refused to endorse the Kansas CITY
platform or to boost Billy Bryan. If
the South takes this line then indeed
Is the cause of the Nebraskan lost"
The Nashville (Tenn) American
(Dem) says: Georgia, one of the
most progressive and thoroughly
Democratic states of the South, has
clearly indicated that it wants no
more of Bryan or Bryan politics."
The Montgomery Advertiser (Dem.)
says: at is now in order for Mr..
Bryan to denounce the Georgia Dem.
ocrats, because in their state conven-
ton last Wednesday they failed to say
anything about the Chicago and Kan
sas City platforms. He will be the
L.
basis all the Democrats who think
that it is a good time to let dead is
sues stay dead"
The Memphis Commercial-AppeaI
Oem.) says: Nov comes the State
Convention of Democrats of Georgia
The ber-grabbers of Georgia are
good Democrats, but they paid no at
tention to the Kansas City platform,
Bryan or imperialism. One after an
other of these Democratic state con-
Ventions have ignored the Philippine
question, and still some Democratic
off1ceholders fancy it is an issue"
The Philadelphia Record (Dem)
says: THE Georgia Democratic State
Convention adopted a platform deal
ing entirely with state issues and neg
lecting any mention of the Kansas
City platform or William Jennings
Bryan. In this departure from ordi-
nary procedure the Georgia Demo-
Gratis follow the lead of Illinois, In
diana, Pennsylvania and other import
ant states. This does not indicate
that Mr. Bryan's friends have for
gotten him or neglected him; but it
does show that they, at least, are will
ling to turn their faces toward the
settlement of new and immediate
problems upon aiding in the solution
of which the Democratic party can
go into battle with a solid front"
The Birmingham (Ala) News (Dem.)
says: 1.-The platform of the Georgia
Democrats is significant, not for the
declarations it contains. but for those
it failed to contain. The time was
not long since when every Demo-
cratic convention considered it a
bounden duty to endorse Mr.. Bryan
and the Chicago and Kansas City
platforms. Having said that the horse
was sixteen feet high it was consid-
cred the part of virtue to be insis-
tent. Recently, however all over the
country the Democrats have shown a
disposition to break away from the
exploded theories and entangling al
liances that have for almost decade
brought embarrassment and defeat to
the organization. The Georgia plat
form very discreetly deals alone with
state issues

A man bought three pounds of meat.

for dinner, and then went his way to

In the evening the man came home

There is no meat" said the wife,

In Indianapolis the other day socie-
ty young woman, no doubt making a
bid for leadership in her set, gave a
birthday dinner in honor of her dog.
There were twenty guests present, and
as a special mark of honor the guests
were permitted to pet the dog. But
the idea is not new. Harry Lehr
sprang it on New York months and
months ago. The indianapolis young
woman lacks originality. She can
never hope to compare with the mimi
table Mr.. Lehr, who the other day,
with the assistance of Mrs. Fish, gave

monkey-a real monkey, not one of the
tailless kind so frequently seen in So
ciety. Now, that was genius.

THE GEORGIA PEACH.

Within a very few days the IA
nous Elberta peach will make it's ap-
pearance in all of the cities of the
country to which it will bear shipment
1t is admitted in the East and West
as well as in the South that this vari-
ETY. has few equals and no superior
1t is beautiful peach and is as lus-
cious as it is beautiful 1t was
thought a few weeks ago that the crop
would be small one, owing to unfa-
vorable weather conditions which pre-
vailed earlier in the season, but the
reports indicate that while the trees
are not so heavily burdened as they
have been in some other years the fruit
will be much finer in size and quality
There is every reason to believe that
the number of carloads that will be
shipped out of the state will be fully
as great as last year, and that the re-
turns will exceed those of any previous
year. Already the Elberta has made
it's appearance in this market, but it
is not yet the tempting peach it will
be a couple of weeks hence.
A few days ago the New York Tri-
bune, in an editorial article, gave high
praise to Georgia peaches and water
melons. After calling attention to the
thin, pallid and unattractive little
peach that is now offered for sale in
the streets of that city, it says: Mean
while the Empire State of the South,
sunny Georgia, is likely to take a long
,,-ft orgrr
vance of every other commonwealth in
the Union in the production of peaches
and watermelons for shipment to the
North. The soil, climate and
plantation methods of Georgia can
hardly be surpassed in any part of
this republic for the raising of luscious
peaches and watermelons."
And the Tribune might have added
cantaloupes to the list The testi-
mony is that the -cantaloupes this year
in this state are as fine as it is pos
sible for them to be. They are ex-
ceedingly sweet and have a remark
ably fine flavor. The shipments from
the Southern counties of the state to
Northern and Western markets have
been large, and, according to reports,
very profitable. A good crop of fine
cantaloupes is probably more profitable
than any other that is produced in the
state. Florida also has been a large
shipper of cantaloupes this year That
state and Georgia have no doubt prac-
tically supplied the demand of the
Eastern, Western and Southern mar
kets for them up to the present time.

DA5 "a OOStAlCoSs
In Ecuador curious hammocks
have long been in use, and Mr.. Perry
NJ. de Leon, United States consul gen
eral at Guayaquil, thinks so highly
of them that he wants to see them
used in this country. Their special
merits, he says, are the strength, DEL
icacy and elasticity of the fiber of
which they are composed, and he ex-
presses confidence that if they were
imported lin quantity by some enter
prising merchant the results would be
gratifying" The raw material is de-
rived from the leaves and shoots of
palm which is found in some of the
coast provinces of Ecuador and which
is known as the "mocora" 1t at
tains a hight of IS to "a feet and is
very thoTny. At eight or ten years
of age it natures, and if the shoots
are properly cut it will live for an
indefinite period. Hammocks of this
kind are known as 'manavi" ham
mockS, and, so far as known, were
first manufactured in the district Of
Pajan, Munavi. 1.-THE favorite Sizes"
says Consul General de Leon, ARE
nine to twelve feet in length, by three
to six feet in width, and the fiber is
of whitish yellow color, like wheat
straw, and is generally stained red
in narrow stripes. The fiber is made
into stout cords, which are intertwined
every half inch with spiral cross
strands; the color scheme is quaint
without being gaudy, and from II 10
"a manah cords are strung into the
end ard bound together with the sus-
pending rope. "A good article, If not
treated roughly, will endure 10 years
of constant use. In Ecuador the
hammock Is an indispensable house
hold adjunct, being used as a ham,
mock by day and as a bed by night"
