INVESTIGATION OF
GRAFT IN THE SOUTH.
Savannah News.)
!; Z !: < !: z Z z z I & ( Z

The statement in our dispatches
that the washington authorities were
preparing to investigate the charges
that Southern oficeholders were get
ting good deal of graft" in one
way and another eXcites Interest and
surprise. II may be that they are NIL
ing their pockets with graft" but II
they are conditions have changed
greatly within the last year or two-
We don't mean to say they wouldn't
take advantage of opportunities to
gather in graft" within their reach,
but that under the system that pre-
walls ii would be a difficult matter for
them to ill their pockets on account
of the drafts upon their purses.
AS is pretty well known the Repno-
lican party in the South is made mp
mainly of negroes and a few white
men. Both negroes and white men
are appointed to the federal offices
when the Republican party is in pow
er in washington, but while they en-
10y the official honors they don't en-
10y all OF the emoluments. The ne
gro leaders who don't get offices, tie
| strikers and the workers, see 20 II
| that they get their share OF the Of
| fetal salaries. OF course the salaries
are not divided, but the fellows who
don't get office see to it that their
notes are indorsed for small amounts,
notes that eventually have TO be
| paid by the indorsers, and they are
| not backward in borrowing all they
/ can get from the officeholdeTs.
OF course these negro leaders for the
most part live in the cities, and de-
vote the greater part of their time to
practical politics. Their. living ex-
! penses are not large, and what they
do require they manage to get from
those they help to get office. The
| Northern Republican politicians
ought to know something about this
Esort of grating since it is the I'M
Iderstanding that they have to pay the
| expenses of the colored delegates 10
the national conventions and to give
them little spending money besides.
It has been reported that the North
ern Republican leaders have about
made up their minds to stop opening
their pooketbooks to these negro dele
gates from the South, and perhaps
that is the foundation of the-Wash-
Eington. report relative to grating by
Southern officeholders.
Some time ago it was reported that
a white officehOlder who had resigned
was asked why he didn't hold on to
his job. He replied that he was
tired Of working for coons.'' It
seems that the negro managers of the
party had held him up for about all
of his salary. And if the experience
of the federal of1iceholders here in
the South were known, it would ap-
pear that very few Of them use more
than a small percentage of the in
comes from their Offices for them
selves. They have to satisfy the ne
gro party managers. If they didn't.
efforts would be made to have them
put out of Office or they would be
notified that they couldn't have the
Endorsement of the local managers for
reappointment.

THE AMENDMENT TO THE
ARMY APPROPRIATION BILL.

The amendment TO the army apprO'
priation bill, said to be directly aimed
AZ General Nelson A. Miles. retired,
which was the cause for John Sharp
Williams's vigorous speech in the
House of Representatives on Tuesday,
Is discussed by the Courier-Journal as
follows:
During the consideration of the
army appropriation bill by the senate
last week. there ensued an animated
debate when the following amendment
60 the existing law was reached:
Provided that hereafter no retired
ofhcer above the grade Of major shall,
when assigned to active duty, receive
from the United States any pay and
allowances, additional TO his pay as q
retired officer. so as to make his total
pay and allowance exceed the pay and
allowances Of a major on the active
list" As this is the measure which
has by many been thought to be aimed
at General Miles. SO as TO prevent his
receiving additional pay, under his ap'
pointment By Governor Douglas, as
the commanding officer Of the Massa-
chusetts militia, its reading at once
created great interest. Senator Lodge
promptly raised objection 10 it on gen
eral grounds. as not applicable to ali
ofscers. but limited to those above the
rank OF major. He then made the
specific objection that it had been
freely stated that the clause had been

Destruction o. Forests.

Editor Pensacola Journal:
What ever was written in a pre-
vious letter relating 10 the many evils
that have followed in the wake of a
ruthless destruction of the primitive
forests the worst feature in a general
calamity has not been fully noticed.
When the farmer completes his little
clearing wherein to plant and raise
his supply of fruit and vegetables,
surrounded as Il was by a protecting
shelter from the intense summer heat
and in winter, protected by the same
barriers from chilling blasts, he could
gather fresh products from the gar
den on Christmas day as readily as
on the first of June-neither heat nor
cold deprivinE him OF the life-giving

obliterated he finds two obstacles 10

ing. To be successful in spring plant.
ing for summer maturing, he must
sow his seed in the early part of the
year-but recent years the extreme
cold OF that time has prevented that
work.
To prepare for winter maturity OF
early fall--the dry autums of recent
years have prevented this work being
done.
When one considers the difficulties
the farmers. and truckers now labor
under. the result of wastefulness OF
growing timber, it is no longer a mat.
ter Of wonder or surprise at the evil
denee OF decay and discomfort among
this class OF toilers
No wonder one trucker said of a
neighbor that the latter could be
found at a certain grocery several
times each week laying in home sup
plies as that grocery was both
corn crib and smokehouse to him."
Must this condition continue and
grow as time goes by and this land
of bright sunshine and inyigoratins

to ledge grass and unproductive land
We say no. New England and "Old
Virginia" felt the blight of exhausted
soil and thousands Of acres of land
lay idle for years. until new life was
infused in them by new owners and
untiring energy. so southwest Florida
must be redeemed from its poor en-
virOnments by renewed energy on The

Utica by that appointment to full pay
instead OF that which he receives as
Fetlred officer incidentally il may
De stated that this pay of a lieutenant
general In active service is $4,000
and as retired $3.50. Under existing
law such appointment as that offered
oy the governor of Massachusetts,
would entitle him to the same pay
as II assigned to active duty by the
president in addition to any emolu-
ment from the state.
Mr.. lodge alleged that the provision
was Objectionable because it was re-
trcactive and aimed apparently at a
specific ofheer. The debate took wide
range, many senators participating in
II Senator Proctor, as chairman of
the committee on military affairs, de-
/ fended the amendment and denied
that 1t was aimed at any particular
oiheeE but was intended to check the

| by officers in retirement. most of
which had mere nominal duties. Upon
inquiring he said there were nine
nlIIng such places, and that the in
creased cost to the government was
I $4,000 a year. Mr.. Spooner took a
prominent part in support of Senator
/ Lodge. He said, however. he could
not believe that the amendment was
aimed at any particular officer. There
was much confusion in the different
| interpretations given TO the measure.
and the pay which would be received
under IT, and the debate exhaCs-ed
Itself without result. On the next
day, however, the question was re-
sumed with less feeling when Mr..
| Lodges amendment in the nature of a
substitute was taken up and without
discussion adopted. It reads as fol-
lows: Provided, that retired officers
OF the army above the CRATE of major

pay and also Communication of quarters.
unless government quarters are avail
able, and shall receive no further pay
or allowance; provided further. that

amendment was adopted, evidently as
a compromise, being practically OF The
same erect as the original one as far
as it abolishes the existing law giving
/ full pay to retired officers hereafter
