VIZ. ON stiIts.

Charles j. Glidden. who is making a
tour of the world in his automobile,
reached Boston recently. says the
Baltimore Herald. To number of
reporters he related his experiences,
and among other things he said:
In Wales I put up one night at
a remote tavern where an American
lay ill.
Il called on the American and we
had a long talk together. He was not
very ill. but, after the manner of some
invalids, he growled and grumbled a
good deal.
BY Jove." he said suddenly, I
smell chicken cooking. 1 am go
ing to have some chicken broth.
so he ordered the broth, and in due
time it was brought to him. The look
of complaint vanished from his eyes
on its arrival. For the first time,
dipping his spoon in the liquid, he
smiled.
But he had no sooner tasted the
broth than he emitted a dreadful
oath.
Weak" he said; weaker than
water

thettcally, that they just let a chicken
wade through it,

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Galveston Daily News (Dem.)
says. THE Republican party is di-
rectly responsible for every great
trust or monopoly in the country.
There is not one Of them that is not
a result of the Republican policy Of
peddling special privileges to exploit
the people. There is not one of them
that is not ready to contribute to the
Republican campaign fund. They are
licensed by the party to get out of the
people the fat that is fried out Of
them for campaign use. But for the
Republican party, there would be in
this country no great combinations with
power to say just how much the peo-
pie shall have for their labor, their
wheat, their beeves: TO declare just
how much the people shall pay for
their meat, their iron, their clothing.
The reader who believes that the Re
publican party or the present admins
tration is at war with the trusts needs
a guardian and a nurse. The par
" in power is the mother of the
trusts
The Philadelphia Record (Dem) says
Additional evidence that the Popu-
lists are with the Republicans in this
campaign is afforded by the fact that
two men In New York, described as
the opposition Of themselves and their
faction TO the Democratic ticket, pre-
dieting that 100000 persons. evidently

presidential campaigns" will not sup
port Parker and Davis. II is pre-
dicted that half OF them viii vote for
Mr.. Roosevelt and a quarter viii for
for Mr. Watson. This prediction is
less terrifying than Il would be II we
did not recall the overwhelming Demo
cratic victory when the Populists gave
a million votes 10 Gen. Weaver and
the utter Democratic defeats when the
600. 600 Populists supported the Demo
cratic ticket and drove 100000 Demo-

THE CEDARTowN LYNcHING.

1t will be said probably in some.
quarters that the Cedartown lynchers
were encouraged in the course they
pursued by the Statesboro tragedy. If
the truth could be obtained it would
doubtless appear that while the lynch
ers had the Stateshoro Iynching in
mind they We're not influenced in the
least by it-that, in fact. they would
have done just as they did do even If
there had been no lynching at States
boro. Indeed, it is a question If the
Cedartown mob wouldn't have burned
the negro before killing him if there
had not been a lynching at Statesboro.
because of the enormity Of his offense,
but were restrained from going to
such extremes by the cutlery against
the savagery of burning criminals
alive. There is no doubt, however.
that one lynching leads to another, and
that unless the efforts to prevent
lynchings are more effective than they
have been in this state the number
of lynchings will increase rapidly.
1t is agreed that lynchings have a
brutalizing effect upon the lynchers.
That being the case, if for no other
the Governor and all others in au-
thority in the state should put
forth every effort to put a stop to
mob law. 1t is worthy of notice that
the Governor of Alabama has an
nounced that he intends to use all the
power he has to bring lynchers to JUS
tice. According to our dispatches yes
terday he has offered rewards for the
arrest and conviction of persons who
participated in three recent lynchings
in that state. It wouldn't be surpris-
ing if witnesses should come forward
and endeavor to earn the rewards.
1t isn't known what course the Gov
ernor of this state is going to take.
With a record of two lynchings in less
than two weeks it would seem as if he
would do something that would check
the tendency, that is becoming more
and more apparent. to substitute mob
law for the courts in aggravated cases.
If this tendency is tolerated it will
not be long before lynch law will be
confined to aggravated cases nor to
black criminals.
There is another phase Of this lynch
ing business that is worth considering,
namely, the effect it is having in the
presidential campaign. A letter received
in this city yesterday stated the Re
publicans were using it in that state
with considerable effect against the
election Of a Ternncrat for President

MR. HUTTON AND THE COTTON SUP
PIN


Mr.. ]. A. Hutton, vice chairman of
the British Cotton Growers Associa-
ton, is quite sure all the cotton Brit
ish spinners want can be grown with
in the limits Of the British empire.
In the paper he read before the asso-
citation on Monday he expressed the
opinion that West Africa alone could
produce 100000 bales a year.
Mr.. Hutton writes and talks like
man who is vexed with somebody or
at something, and therefore is not in
a frame of mind TO think clearly.
At present his anger is directed
against the cotton spectators of this
country who cause the price of cotton
to jump up and down in a way that
makes the average Englishman at
home dizzy. Perhaps he wouldn't be
so anxious to experiment in cotton
growing in West Africa if he could be
assured the cotton market wouldn't be
disturbed in future by spectators. But
doesn't he know if West Africa should
produce a 10000 600 bale crop there
would be as much speculation in West
African cotton as there is in American
cotton2
But Mr.. Hutton will have to live a
good many years before he will see a
20. ,000-b bale cotton crop in West
Africa. or even a 1,OO0,O bale crop.
If desirable cotton could be grown sue
cessfully there the fact would have
become known many years ago, for
England has been hunting long time
for territory within her domains on
which she could grow enough of the
right sort of cotton to make her indie
pendent of the United States
1t looks now, if the frost holds off,
like this country would have a crop
large enough this year to supply the
worlds demand for cotton at a price
that yields a profit. What the English
spinners want is good cotton at cents
a pound. 1t will be long time before
they will get that again. Ever since
cotton was 5 cents a pound, a few
years ago, the English spinners have
fields and grow their own cotton. Their
dependence on this country, however,
isn't likely to cease very soon. If
Edward Atkinson is right, and he has
studied the cotton situation thorough
ly, the United States have a cinch on
the production of cotton that is likely
to hold as long as the world stands.
The Savannah morning news., 1904-08-24
THE COST OF IMPERIALISM.

Mr.. Edward Atkinson. the we'll
has prepared an article for the presi-
Dental campaign, in which he shows
the cost of imperialism for eight years
has been S1,20O,OOO. OF course this
sum is only approximately correct,
since it is practically impossible to get
the exact figures.
Mr.. Atkinson says that for the
twenty years prior to the beginning of
the Spanish American war--from 1873
to 1S9S-the cost annually of carrying
on the government in all it's depart
ments was about $3.50 per capita of the
inhabitants. The cost per year for the
eight years beginning with 1898 and in
GLIDING 1904 he places at $3.50 per cap
tia of the population.
Mr.. Atkinson gives facts and figures
drawn from official reports which
leaves no room for doubt that his
statement is pretty close to the truth.
The revenue to meet this vast expen-
diture is obtained from the people.
There is no other source from which
to obtain it. 1t may be the people
do not feel the taxation because they
pay their taxes indirectly, but they
would inquire more closely into impe-
rialism if they had to pay the amount
they contribute to the support of it in
lump sum.
The most of the revenue comes from
articles of common consumption, arti-
Giles which all of the people consume.
The revenue that comes from articles
of luxury is comparatively small. For
the support of imperialism, therefore,
practically all of the people contribute.
Assuming that Mr.. Atkinson's figures
are correct each one of them contrib
utes about 80 a year.
AS a matter of fact, however, the
cost of imperialism to each one is
much greater than 50. 1t is claimed
by the party in power that the tariff
cannot be reduced because the govern
ment needs all of the revenue raised
under the present tariff schedules
That party keeps in the background
the fact that some of the tariff sched-
ules are intended TO enable certain in
dustrial interests to charge for their
products much higher prices in the
home markets than they get for them
in foreign markets. If the tariff were
reduced the people could purchase
many articles which they are compell-
ed to have at much lower prices. As
long as Imperialism takes so large a
part of the revenue the Republicans
have an excuse for resisting a reduc-
ton OF the tariff. The tariff for the
support of Imperialism therefore
costs the people about as much as
they contribute to the revenue for its
support.
Mr.. Atkinsons articles no doubt will
make a strong impression on the
country It will make them think OF
Imperialism as they have never
thought of 1t before. II is an argument
TO their pockets. Heretofore the
strongest argument made against it
was that it would increase corruption
in public life and eventually under
mine the republic.

The Pennsylvania newspapers are
bowling that there has been a big
graft" at the Worlds Fair, and that
not one-ffth of the total appropriation
was required for the exhibit made.
They raised the same howl and justly.
at the time of the Buffalo Exposition,
and accounted for it by saying that
Quay needed 1t for campaign purposes.
II may be that Israel Durham, Quay's
successor. needed the Pennsylvania
pocketbook to help Chairman Cortelyou
in running the national campaign. One
thing is certain, however. and that is
that all graft in the Keystone state
did not die with Quay.

The way the Republican newspapers
are quietly boosting Watson and lib
bles shows that the game of the party
in power is to attempt to weaken the
Democrats by drawing from them the
votes of the Bryan wing and turning
them to Watson. The lovers of Jeffer-
sonian principles should not be misled
into casting their votes for a ticket that
has no possible show to win. The only
hope of a return to Jefferson is in the
Democratic party.
