A RIDICULOUS CLAIM.

| "A h1D1O OAOOO N1tA1M.
Much has been said in this cam
| pai9n regarding the price OF Amer
lean manufacturers abroad as com
pared with the price in the, domestic
market. Particular stress has been
laid upon the statement or clam
that our sted rails are sold abroad
at a lesser price than to American
railroads. Without at this time 60
ing into a defense of this condition,
if indeed it needs defense, with
out celebrating the explanation that
while this custom is INDUCED in to
some extent. not only by our own
manufacturers. but by the manufac-
turers Of Great Britain and other
countries, We wish to lay particular
stress upOn the so-called injustice
that is claimed against the. American
people by this practice.
Let IS suppose that our railroads
are paving $2S ton for steel rails,
while our manufacturers are selling
them to Great Britain and to other
countries for $24 Or even 500. 1t
would seem then that our railroads
must charge increased prices over
those Of other countries to get back
the increased price which they have
to pay for the raw material. We
should expect to find this increased
cost to Americans in the matter of
freight rates. Now let us sic what
our freight rates are as compared to
those of other countries. In the
United Kingdom the average rate for
freight transportation per ton mile Is
IS cents; in Russia, "a cents; in
France, % cents; in Germany, 1.64
cents; and in the United States 0.S
cent In other words, the American
shipper pays less than one-third for
the transportation of his freight that
is paid by the shipper of England
and Russia and France. In 1885 the
American rate was 1867; it is now
actually OLGA. To take the COMPARE
son somewhat further, We quote the
words Of Col. E. p. North in paper
read before the International Enei-
neering Congress in which he says:
''If our rates had remained as in
1885 we should have paid Oast Year,
IS. 500. 100000 more for transporting
our freight than We did, and if our
freight rates had been equal to those
Of England, as stated by Mulhall,
and with as large a volume of bust
ness possible at such rates, the cost
would have been nearly $33,000,000,-
900 greater. ;. .........
1t is now up to the Free Traders
Of this country TO explain to US how
much the American shipper who pays
rate of Olga loses in comparison
with the English shipper who pays a
rate of 2.S cents, and if Edward At
kinson is not able to explain to the
American people how much we lost
by having to pay sos a ton for our
steel rails, We refer the matter to
Statistieian Alton B. PARKER, who
can make loss of 100000 soldiers
out of an army of only 10000 alto
gether who have entered the field.

REPUBLICAN SURPLUS.

The official report Of the United
States Treasurer shows that while
there was an apparent deficiency OF
-S41.770.3U. for the fiscal year end
inc June 30. 1901. the payment OF
$40. 900 900 for the Panama canal
and th, loan of $4,600,000 to the St.
Louis Exposition which has been re-
paid. changes this apparent deficit to
surplus of $12,s79,42S. Had the
Treasurer counted out the $24,00O,-
600 applied to the sinking fund as a
rayment on the public debt, the sur
plus of revenues over actual expen-
ditures would have been $37 ,OO0,00O.
The Inconsistency of the Demo-
Gratis in accusing the Roosevelt adj
ninistration of running the Govern
ment in debt is easily shown by
simple comparison Of results OF two
party policies. The four years OF
President Cleveland last admins
,r,t;on from 1898 to 1897 created an
aetna, deficit Of 1856 100000, and
added 1862 100000 to the pubic
debt. The nearly four years OF Pres
ident Roosevelt's administration
have produced IAN actual surplus OF
1863 900 600, or enough to pay OFT
fhe bonded debt for the Panama Ca
nal which is not an expenditure Tor
The government last year but per-
manenl investment for the future, the
loan 10 The ST. Louis Exposition and
the $24 900 900 applied to the SINK
in. fund. the surplus created by the
Roosevelt administration Is Tlolu-
600 1000. or more than enough to wipe
out the deficit left by the last Demo-
cratic Administration.
1t requires both gall and ignorance
for the Democratic candidates to
criticise the administration of Presl-
dent Roosevelt and the Republican,
CONGRESS- as eXtravagant, but both
Judge Parker and Mr. Davis seem to
be both ignorant and possessed OF
supreme gall 1t is as good as a MIN
strel joke to hear Henry Gassaway
Davis call up the Buchanan Admins
tration as an example Of economy
and thrift under peaceful policies. In
the year 1858. which Mr.. Davis cites
as an example Of Democratic econo-
my the unwarlike administration. the
total revenues of the government
amounted to only $46,0O0,0OO and
the deficit to more than S27 800 900.
and the expenditures for the war
and navy departments amounted to
nearly $4O,OOO,O00, or within So
100000 of the total revenues.
The statistician who directed Mr..
Davis to the Buchanan administra-
ton as an example of Democratic
thrift and economy must have been
a friend Of President Roosevelt or
practical joker for he could not have
found a single year in the history of
the government in which there was
more reckless and disastrous fnan-
cial administration. or one where so
large a proportion Of the revenues
was applied to the war and navy de-
partments, creating military estab-
1ishments to be used against the gov
eminent by traitors who had control.
Democratic administration has al
ways resulted in deficiencies and Re-
publican administration and legisla- |
ton have always resulted in surplus
revenues to be applied to the pay
ment Of the public debt, and to max
ing permanent investment like that |
of the Panama canal. The men who !
believe the government should keep

will not have any need for the two
smaller ships that will be displaced by
the building of the City of Atlanta
and the City of Columbus.
This being the case it is suggested
that with the proper sort of encourage
ment the company might be induced to
establish a line of steamers between
Savannah and San Juan, touching also
at Kingston, Jamaica. The Ocean
Steamship Company, should such a line
be established, would be in position
to make through freight rates from
New York, Boston and other Eastern
points to the cities in question in com
petition with the lines already estab
lished.
With the freight and passenger traf-
fic that the New York and Savannah
Line could throw to the Savannah and
Porto Rico Line, and with the business
that would come from the cities of the
Southeast we believe that the venture
would at once become a success.
In case the Ocean Steamship Com
pany would not care to enter into such
a deal there are other steamship lines
and steamship owners who would be
glad to consider the matter and if the
proper showing is made by the mer-
chants of the cities named TO establish
the line.
Some idea of the magnitude of the
commerce of the island may be had
from the fact that the exports are now
more than 10000 600 a year. OF this
amount so per cent. is received from
the coffee exported; s5,0O0,00O from SUI
gar; 81 900 coo from tobacco; 100000
from honey, and the balance from 9TH
er products, principally fruits.

THE FEDERAL COURTS
ADJOURNED FOR SESSION.
Judge Speer and Court officials Left
for Their Homes Last Night.


for Their Homes Last Night.
At 2 O'Clock yesterday afternoon the
United States Circuit and District
courts adjourned for the session and
last night Judge Speer and the court
officials left for their homes.
On Monday the courts will convene
in Augusta. Judge Speer left for his
home in Macon. United States Dis
trict Attorney Alexander Akerman,
Stenographer Talley, and Deputy Mar
shals Tucker and Stalnaker also left
Savannah, some going to Macon and
others to Augusta.
The session which has just closed has
been one of the busiest in the history
of the courts. In the Circuit and Dis
trict courts there was sixty
five cases finally disposed of.
Fourteen bankruptcy cases were
before the court, ten adJudica-
lions in bankruptcy were made,
and ten bankrupts discharged. OF the
total number of cases twenty-seven
were in the Circuit Court.
Among the cases were many which
required several days in the hearing,
notably the turpentine case, the Jen-
ME L. Graves land cases, and the false
pension jurats case. The criminal
docket was a large one and number
of cases of great Importance We're
tried. Chief among these were the
peonage cases, on which demurrers
were argued, the Moore pension case,
and the Shanghai cases against Har-
ry Olsen.
Illicit distilling cases were many
and there were several convictions
for violation Of the postal laws. A
large number of cases in admiralty
also came before Judge Speer, and all
of these were disposed of with the
exception of the Ropner-Wilder case,
which was settled out of. court.
The demurrers in the peonage cases
were overruled by Judge Speer, but
the cases did not come to trial. They
were postponed to await the decision
of the supreme Court of the United
States on the Sam Clyatt case, which
was certified to that court by the Cir
cult Court of Appeals,
Before the court closed its session
here the juries for the Augusta ses-
sion were drawn by Judge Speer.

Mayor Myers heartily approves of
the proposed steamship line between
Savannah and Havana.
The Mayor agrees with everything
said by Mr.. H. P. Smart on the sub
ject, he said yesterday. Before the
Spanish-American War Mayor Myers
had the matter under discussion, and
the line would have been established
then had it not been for the war.
There is no doubt about it," he said;
"cargoes, could easily be secured for
trips both ways We thoroughly in
vestigated the sugar refinery PROPOSE
ton and found that it would be pay
ing investment. The ships could bring
sugar from Cuba and carry back Amer
lean products. The refinery could be
established here with a little work.
when 1 was looking into the mat
ter we had the offer of one-half of
the capital needed for establishing the
refinery, if the other half could be
raised in Savannah. We would have
gotten it up, if the Spanish American
War had not interfered. That, of
course, killed all plans for the time be-
ing.
1--WE corresponded with the principal
trunk lines, and learned that we could
place refined sugar in Chicago as
cheaply from here as from New York.
Chicago is the distributing center for
the West, and with that showing there
is no doubt that the refinery here
would be a success"
A feature of the steamship line that
has not yet been mentioned, except in
trade papers, Is given in the March
number of Dixie, though the article in
question refers ito Porto Rico rather
than Cuba. The suggestion would,
however, apply to Cuba. A portion of
the article is as follows
