that Parrish would get as many
votes in Greene county as Taylor
and Macon both, and | am going 20

Capt. Moss says Taylor will car

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Record Dem.)
says: 1.-The beet sugar Republicans
of the House say they will not unite
with the Democrats to overrule any
decision of the Speaker in regard to
amendments to the Cuban reciprocity
bill. A much more important question
is whether the Democrats of the House
will unite with the beet sugar faction
of Republicans to defeat Cuban reci-
procity."
The Albany IN. " Argus (Dem.)
says: Finally, it is asserted that,
try as he may. President Roosevelt is
not strengthening himself with the real
Republican leaders, and that the inrlu-
entail business corporations, which are
so powerful a factor in Republican
party affairs, are as distrustful of his
impulsive, erratic character as ever,
although he has uniformly striven to
be less strenuous of late"
The Philadelphia Ledger (Ind.)
says: at is not at all improbable that
Senator Bailey the young leader of
the Texas Democracy, has predicted
the next presidential campaign correct
ly. He says the main issue will be the
colonial policy of the United States,
and that seems to be the most inn
portant one now before the country or
in sight for 1904. 1t is one that has
been much discussed in the recent
past and is sure to be more thoroughly
considered in the near future, while
1904 win give the people of the United
States their first opportunity to ex-
press their views on it,"
The New York Journal of Commerce
thus pays its respects to the bucket
shops: But the bucket shop dealer
neither buys nor Sells he has nothing
to buy or sell: he could not make a
delivery if he were called on to: he
can make no money except what his
customer loses. The transaction is
clearly analogous to betting in this,
that what one party wins the other
party loses. The bucket shop can no
more afford to take even chances on
transactions of this kind than a faro
banker can. Two casual acquaintances
may make a wager with each other on
even terms; one has as good a chance
as the other, and all that one loses the
other wins. But no professional gam
bier could live on this sort of business,
losing as much as he makes, or if he
makes more than he loses, being in
debted to pure luck for the fact; if his
business is gambling he must have a
system by which he is certain to win
oftener than he loses. The bucket shop
is run for the proprietor's benefit ana
the man who deals with it is gambling
in an establishment where the bank is
certain to win in the greater number
of instances

rIMELY AcrInN.

The action of the Mayor in writing
a letter to the president of the Allan
tic Coast Line in regard to making Sa-
vannah the headquarters of the con-
solidated Coast Line and Plant Sys-
TENS and the appointment by the Cot
ton Exchange of a committee to look
/ after Savannah's interests in connec-
ton with the consolidation were time
ly. 1t is probable that the Coast Line
has as yet made no plans in respect
to headquarters for the consolidated
properties and it may not do so until
it has obtained control of the Plant
System, and its officials have made a
thorough inspection of it. but nothing
will be lost by putting the Coast Line
people on notice that the Savannah
people are looking out for the welfare
of their city, and are ready TO do all
they can for the prosperity of the
new system and intend to try to have
the new system do all it can for the
welfare of their city.
1t is not necessary, of course, to call
the attention of the Coast Line officials
to the magnificent terminals of the
Plant System here or to the advant-
ages of this port for commerce, or to
the greatness of it's commerce. These
things are known to all who keep
posted respecting the commerce OF the
country, particularly that of the South.
We can see no reason why the head
quarters Of the new system should not
be here. Nowhere else on it's lines will
it have interests of such magnitude as
here. And from no other point can the
system be operated to such an advant-
age. Unless all indications fail, the
consolidation will be beneficial to Sa-
vannah.
The report that both the Atlantic
Coast Line and the Plant System have
been added to the Pennsylvania Rail-
road has not yet been confirmed. 1t
may be well founded, but the better
opinion seems to be that the deal by
which the Plant System ceases to be
a separate property is confined to the
Coast Line and the Southern.

She Dropped 1t.

A story is going the rounds wherein
figure two well-known Columbus ladies
and parrot, says the Ohio State Jour
nal. Mrs. A. paid a special call at the
home of Mrs. b. the other day and was
ushered into the living room by the
maid of all work to await the appear
ance of Mrs. B.
a parrot only short time before, and
had been keeping the bird in the living
room. Polly has a very good command
of English, and appears to know when
to use it. Mrs. A. sat down with her
back to the bird without noticing it,
and as Polly made no sound she re-
manned in ignorance of its presence.
Observing a beautiful vase on the
mantel, Mrs. A. arose from her seat,
and, crossing the floor, took down the
dainty piece of bric-abrac to examine
it. She gazed on it rapturously, COM
pletely absorbed by its elegant decora-
tions, when suddenly from just behind
her came the shrill and stern COM
mand:
Drop it, Drop it!'
Mrs. A obeyed and turned with a
scream to face the imperturbab gaze
of Polly, who sat in her cage with her
green head slyly perked to one side. On
the floor lay the beautiful vase, smash
ed to bits. At this most embarrassing
moment Mrs. B. entered the room. Be
fore Mrs. A. could explain the situa-
ton, Polly shook out her feathers and
remarked: !
You're it! You're it, You're it,"

FLAMING FOR A PERMANENT RES
IDENCE

Dispatches from Syracuse, N. Y.
the home of Col. Gaynor. say that
Col Gayrnor and Capt. Greene. who
fled from the United States Court in
this city, are making arrangement
to become permanent residents of Que
bee, Canada. Col. Gaynor is quoted
as saying to a friend who talked with
him recently in that city, that he and
Capt. Greene We're about to take con-
tracts for the building of a railroad
from Quebec to Lake Huron. 1t
seems that there are several Ameri-
can capitalists interested in this un-
dertaldng, and they are willing to give
Greene and Gaynor chance to bid on
the work of grading the track. 1t is
also said that both Greene and Gay
nor have invested largely in Canadian
coal and steel stock.
If these reports are correct, it is ev-
ident that the two fugitives are not
worrying themselves in regard to pro-
ceedings for their return to this coun-
try. They must feel entirely satisfied
that they are beyond the reach of the
United States authorities.
1t would be a curious state of affairs
if it should turn out that they were
given good advice when they were
told by their lawyers that under the
indictments pending against them
them they could not. If they went to
Canada, be extradited. 1t is certain,
however, that it is the purpose of the
Department of Justice to make every
possible effort to bring them back to
Savannah. In view of the fact that
the Attorney General believes there
is law enough to secure their extra
dition it is probable that there will be
proceedings at Quebec that will at
tract as much attention as did those
in New York, when the fugitives re-
sisted the effort to bring them to Sa-
vannah.
1t is not improbable that there are
charges in the indictment which are
covered by the eXtradition treaty, and
which the fugitives and their attor-
neys have overlooked. There must be
something of the kind or else the At
torney General would not be so con-
fdent of his ability to secure the pres
ence of the accused men for trial in
this city.

IT have heard more or less about
the ways of Providence" said a De-
troiter, who was in a reflective mood
the other day, according to the Free
Press, land 1 can cite what looks like
a fair instance of it. 1 was in the
western part of the state this last
winter, and business took me out to
a farm where a portable steam engine
was saving wood. Things were run
ming at high pressure, with half
dozen men at work, and I sat down
on a log with my man to talk business.
An engineer might have noticed by
the hiss of the steam that the water in
the boiler of the engine was low, but.
of course. 1 had no suspicious. I had
been talking for perhaps ten minutes
when a big rat ran out from under
a pile of wood, and made for the barn.
Someone raised a yell, and we all
jumped up and grabbed clubs, and
started after the rodent. The snow
was deep enough to bother him, and
we overlook him about 200 feet from
the engine. We were in a circle and
whacking at him, when there was a
roar like a cannon, and every man
was knocked fiat. The boiler had
burst and if we had kept our places
not a man of us would have escaped
death. AS it was, no one was even
hurt. A justice of the peace came
along just then, and said he thought
he'd better hold an inquest.
AS no one has been killed, what's
the use of an inquest?" was asked.
I" To fix the blame for the bust-up,'"
he replied
but how are you going to do it?'
You'll see. Now, then, Jones, you

Steam wasn't too high nor water
too low in this case?'

Yes, SIR

for it, and as Jones has cleared himself

Carnegic's Philosophy.

Following are excerpts from Mr..
Carnegies new book, "The Empire of
Business"
A basketful of bonds is the heaviest
1 would almost as soon leave a young
almighty dollar.
1 attribute most of my success in life
to the fact that trouble runs off my
back like water from a duck.
Men who in old age strive only to in
crease their already great boards are
usually the slaves of the habit of
boarding formed in their youth. At
first they own the money; later in life
the money owns them.
College graduates will usually be
found under salaries. trusted subordi-
mates.
1t is not from the sons of the mil
lionaire or the noble that the world re-
ceives it's teachers, it's martyrs, it's in
ventors, it's statesmen. it's poets, or
even its men of affairs. 1t is from
the cottage of the poor that all these
spring.
1t will be a great mistake for the
community to shoot the millionaires
for they are the bees that make the
most honey, and contribute most TO
the hive after they have gorged them
selves full.
Money is left by millionaires to pub
lie institutions when they must relax
their grasp upon it. There is no grace,
and can be no blessing, in giving what
cannot be withheld.

sentative Foster of Vermont, accord
ing to the Washington correspondence
of the New York World, "who was
stranded in Jamaica. He had barely
sufficient money to pay his way back
to the United States. After consider

chase a ticket, and as the sea trip

He realized that if he remained in ia

'He went on board the steamer and

when dinner time came and a fellow

him to the dining-room, he politely de-
clined on the ground that he never ate

A facetious Britisher in the Holland
House cafe recently remarked to New
York Press reporter: "I-er-see that
-er-among youah one hundred gentle
men of industry who met Henry I of
Prussia at Sherry's, there were a
great many gentlemen of leisure, self
made, of course. And with all youah
boosted go-aheadness one of the most
prominent of these gentlemen has de-
voted his entire career to stopping the
wheels of progress. By pursuing his
bent he has accumulated a vast for
tune, estimated at $40, 000, 900. Rather
odd. is it not. that an American should
grow so wealthy endeavoring to retard
things? OF course. you know, 1 re-
fer to Mr.. George Westinghouse, whom
l met recently in Washington. He has
made his fortune by putting on the
brakes. Haw-haw."
