MORE COTTON ToR SAVANNAH.

F. Savannah is rounding out success
full cotton season. The new season
will begin Sept. 1. and the trade has
every reason to believe that even
greater satisfaction will be derived
from the handling of that portion OF
the new crop that reaches this port.
Added facilities will contribute to the
greater safety and better preservation
of cotton, and consumers may depend
upon it that the staple will reach them
in more acceptable condition than ever
before.
During the season drawing to close
there have been nearly $50 tramp
steamships to receive cotton cargoes
here, to say nothing of the many lin
ers and coastwise vessels that have
been freighted with the product. In
this volume and in its general handling
the freighting agents of the port have
been very we'll satisfied. This salts
faction extends to many subsidiary
and allied interests, for the business
of the ship brokers is a comprehensive
one, affecting in it's scope many of the
commercial interests of the city and
a wide and growing extent of the cot
ton territory. The enterprise of these
freighting agents has resulted in a
gradual widening of the region from
which shipments via Savannah are Sc
cured. Little Rock and places of that
section now send cotton on through
bills of lading to Savannah, via Bir-
mingham. The closer relations of the
Frisco system and the Seaboard Air
Line are looked to bring even more
from the Frisco territory.
In the harbor the 2S-foot project has
been practically completed. so that
steamships of deep draught will be en-
abled to shift from berth to berth to
take on lots of cotton, with never any
danger of grounding and having to
wait for high tides to float off.
The three great railway systems hav-
ing terminals at Savannah have all
about doubled their shed room and in
other ways have prepared to handle
receipts more satisfactorily. When con-
sumers abroad and in the East see the
results, particularly noticeable in the
diminution of country damage" they
will see that their cotton is routed via
this port Shipping agents will be able
to guarantee protection for the staple,
and they can promise interior mer-
chants and consumers delivery in good
condition. There is Insurance against
country damage" but consumers
would rather receive the staple in prop
er shape. Insurance men had been
talking of raising the rate. but the
course Of the railroads in adding to
their conveniences and facilities means
that the present rates will be main
tanned.

The Fly.


John Kendrick Bangs in September st.
Nicholas.
A fly,
To my eye,
Is wonderful thing.
He buzzes about all the day on his
A gossamer, fiibberty, gibberty thing.
You wouldn't surmise
A thing of his size
Had strength for all of the tasks that
he tries.
For instance, to-day
/ was reading away
OF fairies and gnomes and the pranks
that they play.
When a fly
Came by,
And then he began
On a horrible plan
OF worrying,
Flurrying,
Scurrying in,
And fiicl<ing the ends of my nose and
my chin,
Until I'd
Like to died
With wrath and chagrin,
Now I'm a big thing
The fly he was small.
He'd flop and he'd fling,
He'd buzz and he'd sing,
While l would do nothing at all
But whack at that fly
Each time he came by
Deep wrath in my eye;
I never could hit him, however I'd try.
/ whacked for two hours
With all of my powers;
And when it was done
l sat weary
And teary-
While he was as fresh as when he had
begun.

Near the outskirts of the crowd was

who wore his hat on the back OF his
head and was trying in vain to gee
over the heads of the men in front OF

How is it going?" he asked.
THE bulletin says the Reliance is

at his side; but the wind is light.

Former President Grover Cleveland
has warmly Endorsed Mr.. Pulitzer's
plan for a school of journalism. The
following is an extract from a letter
Mr. Cleveland has written the New
York World: 1T has been a long time
since any movement of a semi-public
nature has aroused my enthusiasm as
greatly as has Mr.. Pulitzer's Journal
istic school enterprise. I see in it's
success the ultimate extinction of the
vexatious antagonism now existing be-
tween the haphazard conduct of news
papers in their reach after news pur-
veying and a large section of the
public. and release of public men
from annoyances against which it is
hard to defend themselves. 1 do not
believe / exaggerate when l say that
the high standing and conscientious
conduct of the public press is one of
the most important agencies for the
preservation of the best elements of
our national character and one of the
surest guarantees of our national in
tegrity and perpetuity." If Mr. Cleve-
land is correct in his view that there
should be an alteration in the con-
duct of newspapers. an old question
arises. Is it the newspapers or the
public that should be changed? Are
not the newspapers giving the public
what it wants? Does not their ire
mendous circulation prove that they
are? Granting that Mr.. Cleveland
is right, might it not be we'll
for Mr.. Pulitzer OF some other
man of wealth to devote a
few millions to provide a school for
the education Of the people 10 such a
high plane in their reading as to rem
der It an absolutely certain result that
the newspapers will conform to their
demands? The answer of Mr.. Cleve-
land and Mr.. Pulitzer to this would
probably be that they hope to see this
end achieved through the educational
effect that a press. guided by the
talent trained IN the journalistic school.
viii have. II does seem the easier
task 70 train the writer's. and let the
work Of training the public devolye

WHERE MORE MONEY IS WANTED.

WHERE MORE MONEY is WANTED.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
President has talked with many prom
inent men from different sections of
the country on the financial question
since he took up his summer quarters
az oyster Bay, the report is that he is
in about as much doubt as to the kind
OF financial legislation he ought to
recommend in his next message TO
Congress as he was before he left
Washington on his vacation. The
truth seems to be that only from Wall
street. or at least principally from
Wall street, does he receive the i'm
preston that the country is certain to
have a money panic unless there is an
Increase in the volume of the cur
rency in the immediate future.
II is a fact that there isn't a notice
able demand for greater volume of
money in either the South or the West.
Last Saturday one of the most promi-
neht of the Republican leaders of the
West, namely, former United States
Senator Carter, of Montana, was a
visitor at oyster Bay Naturally the
President asked him what the senti-
ment Of the West was in regard to
legislation that would give the coun-
try more money. AS Mr.. Carter was
chairman OF the Republican National
Committee a few years ago the Presi-
dent had a right to assume that he
ment of the West on that question, and
there is no doubt that Mr.. Carter
thought he was well acquainted with
it. His answer was a surprise to the
President In effect he said: THE
Western people are more prosperous
than ever before. They have abund-
ant crops and plenty of money. In
fact, the West is loaning money to the
East. Banks in my town are dis
counting Philadelphia and New York
paper. 1 think there will be an abund-
ance of money in the West to move
the crops. The Western people will
not have to seek a dollar in the East
for this purpose. Naturally under
these circumstances they are not
thinking much about financial legisla-
ton. The impression is general in the
West that the money stringency in
New York is largely. If not wholly, due
to speculation"
This view comedies with that enter
tained by Representative Cannon, who
WILL in all probability, be elected
Speaker of the House as soon as Con-
gress convenes. If Western represen-
tatives and senators generally hold
the views expressed by Mr. Carter and
entertained by Mr.. Cannon it is sate
statement that there will be no finan-
cial legislation at the approaching ses-
sion of Congress, Notwithstanding the
efforts of Wall street to secure it.
1t is evident that the feeling is not
general that there is need for financial
legislation. That is why probably the
President is finding it so difficult to
make up his mind as to what he shall
say in his message on the financial
question. A day or two ago 1t was
said, in the oyster Bay dispatches
that the Republican senators who have
the financial question under consider
alton for the purpose Of framing a bill
to meet the demand for additional cur
rency had, as yet, decided upon moth
ing; that. in fact, it had been found
extremely difficult for them to reach
an agreement in regard to the mat

DIFFERENCES OF OHIO DEMO
Gratis.

The line between Kansas City Plat
form Democrats and the Reorganizers'
or as the factions are after called the
Rrvan and Cleveland Democrats, VIII De
very clearly drawn in the Democratic
state convention of Ohio which meets
in Columbus to-day. The committee on
credentials will get to work this even
ing and it is probable that its action
win Determine which faction VIII con-
troll the convention.
The opposing candidates for the guo-
ernatorial nomination are 1ohn -
zimmerman of Springfield and Tom L.
Johnson of Cleveland. Each has maze
4 nrettv thorough canvass of the state,
and neither has a majority OF the uh-
contested delegates. The indications
are that Mr.. Johnson has the advantage
in the matter of the contest. II TINS
nroves to be the case his faction VIII
control the convention by small ma
jority.
It is regrettable that there is divi-
sion in the ranks of the Ohio Demo-
Gratis. While such division exists they
have but a slight chance of carrying the
state. It is said that many of the DEM
ocrats of either faction would rather
vote with the Republicans than vote
for a member of the opposing faction
IT will be recalled that since Mr.
Johnson has been dominating force IN
the Democratic party of Ohio that par
ty has not been successful in bringing
out a big Democratic vote. He has an
enthusiastic following, but unfortunate
Nv. it does not include the entire party.
Some of his views on political questions
are not acceptable to members of the
party.
And il is a fact that there are Demo-
Gratis in Ohio. and many of Them VINO
are against the political views enter
tanned by Mr.. Zimmerman. 1t is proba-
BILE. however, that if he were to be
nominated the Democratic ticket would
poll a larger vote than If Mr.. johnson
were nominated. But why should eth
er be nominated? If the party really
wants to win why doesn't the conserva-
| tive leaders get together and make a
ticket and a platform upon which all
| the Democrats of the state would be
| willing to stand? Why should the
! chance of the party for victory be
thrown away simply because couple
of leaders insist upon showing which is
the stronger? 1t is doubtful If the
Democrats of Ohio care as much for
either Mr.. Zimmerman or Mr.. Johnson
as they do for the success of their
| party.
The impression is that Mr.. Johnson
doesn't care anything for the office of
Governor. He is seeking to succeed Mr..
Hanna in the United States Senate.

change is probably what many of them
need. The enforcement of the vagrant
law and the consequent exodus Of I'M
desirable negroes may really prove the
making of many of them. In the North,
East and West there is a demand for
labor, and work could easily be
found in those sections by South
ern negroes If they wanted it.
There are thousands of honest. hard
working negroes in the South. whose
industry contribute to her upbuilding
and progress. These negroes are doing
we'll where they are. There are thou
sands of others whose lives are not even
an apology for living. These should
seek a change and get to work. Geor-

tion-the worse half-and be bene-
fitted. There would. in the course of a
few years, be white immigrants to take
the places of those who go away.
