JOHN HoLsRooK ESTiLL

Not only Savannah and Georgia. but
the whole South will sorrow in the
death Of Col. J. II. Estill proprietor Of
the Savannah Morning News. who died
at his home in Savannah Saturday
night.
Colonel Estill was born in 1910 in
Charleston, : c He moved to Savan-
nah when eleven years old, and passed
the remainder of his life in that city.
He entered the Confederate army at
the beginning Of the war and served
until severe wound rendered him in
capable Of military duty. He bought
an interest in the Morning News in
1867. and soon acquired control OF the
paper. He was closely identified with
every movement Of public interest in
Savannah for over forty years. With
out speculation. but simply by indus
try and good management, he built up
a considerable fortune. His paper. the
Savannah Morning News, has been
the standard Of editorial and typo
graphical excellence in the South for
the past thirty years. and there is
probably not a better paper Of its size
and circulation in the world Through
his paper, Colonel Estill has been al
most as closely identified with Florida
and South Carolina as with Georgia,
and there are thousands in all three
states who have never seen him who
will feel like they have lost a personal
friend. Colonel Estill was twice a
candidate for governor OF Georgia. and
both times conducted a clean, dignified
campaign, far more honorable to him
than the success won by his opponents
by less scrupulOus methods. Colonel
Estill was a Mason. an Odd Fellow, an
Elk and a Good Templar His life was
a worthy model for the youth Of the
South: his death an event all may
sincerely mourn.

port started in Goldfeld that the Santa
Fe had made Overtures looking to the
purchase OF that line as a part OF plan
to make direct connections with San
Francisco by way OF Nina and Bodie.
Brock said that he had heard nothing
about the plan and laughed at the
notion OF such a line. He would make
no statement in regard to the possibil-
ity of his building a road through the
Kawich country, as has been repeatedly
rumored. 1t is known that Brock and
his associates have had a survey made
for such a line. which would tap the

 William ]. Bryan certainly believes that such will be the ultimate result of the agitation and education that has taken such hold on the govern ment of states and nation.
 Railroads are, above all, strictly engaged in public business. Their work is confined to no city, no conn try. no state. They are strictly a national institution So long as Arkansas makes one set of laws for their regulation, Texas another, Missouri a third, and so on through all the states, there is bound to be wrangling, discord and dissatisfac, tion to roads and people. The sooner the government can come into prop. CT control of all railroads the sooner will this condition cease.

cording to it's latest issue, that the Southern democracy doesn't want MT. Bryan for candidate. This, lntlmates Harper's, is not new im- pression in the South, but the novel feature of it is that instead of sul- lenly and hopelessly acquiescing to the nomination and inevitable defeat Of MT, Bryan the Southern democ- racy has girded its Joins, so to speak, and has resolved against the nomi- nation of Bryan. They have candi- dates down South men of presiden- tlal caliber from whose ranks they hope to impress some one into the service of leading the next campaign to victory.
 There is something delightfully."- naive in the frankness with which Harper tells where it ascertained those facts. It got it's inkling first from the columns of the New York Sun and by closely following that Journal the inkling was upholstered and padded until it became an en- llghtened conviction HarpeFs al

ceasing to stand as barriers to the carrying out of any principle that is plainly for the welfare of u e nation and the people composing it. On the contrary, to exhibit a disposition to condemn any teaching or doctrine because it is promulgated by an op- posing political party is to wear the brand of a petty politician, general ly seeking to gain some personal end by such a course.
 And the time is rapidly coming, if. indeed 1t has not fully Iarriyed, when any man who desires to secure any material preferment at the hands Of the public. must win it by work ing for good government regardless of party lines.

It, by the various meth- ods used to solve the same prob lem, will make easy the finding of the best solution will find in the end cure for all the evils. And then again. by its very unpleasant disturbance of affairs, 1t will make more apparent the need of the en- actment of one set of laws to control the whole business
