The State SamitQyiuru

Now that the report of Messrs. Grantland,
Westmoreland and Jenkins has fully sus-
tanned the JEFFERsoNIAN in the matter of the
Sanitarium at Milledgeville, we beg to sug-
gest that it is unwise to have so many luna
tics at one place.
It is practically certain that the State will
have to overhaul the asylum system and,
while doing SO, might just as we'll be thor
ough about it. Why not establish at least
four places, widely separated, for the keep of
these poor demented creatures?
Maintain the North Georgia insane at
carefully selected location in South Georgia,
and so on.
The suggestion is respectfully submitted
In the mean while, [ wish they'd let young
Huntington alone. He came to see me, and
| talked with him at some length, and [
considered him the sanest man that's been
here in some time
No wonder he fights, when they try to make
him 60 back to that Sanitarium. I'd fight.
like pack of wildcats, before I'd let them
drag me into any such hole.

WASHINGTON, August 1O.-Twenty minutes after
the tariff bill had passed the Senate telegram signed
Nelson W. Aldrich, and addressed y. Pierpont Nor
gam board yacht Corsair left the capital It read
Bill passed this afternoon. Everything all right.
Following Republicans voted against bill Beveridge,
Clapp Cummins, Bristow, DolIiver, La Toilette Mel
son.
"The telegram and the fact that such a telegram
was sent tell their story. Extended comment is
superfuous.'
The New England clique rules Congress-
with the aid of old Joe Cannon, the man who
was driven out of public life few years ago
on account of an obscene speech on the floor
Of the House. This clique is arrogant, con-
temptuous of the South and West Unsuitable
IN It's appetite for Special Privilege, and ut
terly and scornfully Indifferent to the rights
OF the great agricultural sections.
Not only are they determined to hold on to
the abominable system of "Protecti0m" which
enables the manufacturing class to rob the
Others but they are aggressive, and mean to
destroy the Western Senators of the Repub-
llcan party who had the courage to make a
stand for their own states. In naming to
King Morgan the insurgents who dared to
oppose New England rapacity, Senator AL
drlch meant to mark them for political de-
structiOn.
Let the South and the West take notice.
Let us follow. the advice of Senator Gore and
give to the Western insurgents support
which puts principle and patriotism above
party. Every Democrat, every Populist,
every Socialist of those Western states ought
to give the heartiest backing to the men whom
Aldrch puts on his blacklist.

''7he Cinnamon Min their Fight"

Our slant-eyed brothers, the Cinnamon. are
most fastidious In the matter of the instru-
ments through which their conversions to
Christianity are to be effected.
Each one of the yellow Johns wants q
teacher, all to himself Not only that. but
the teacher must be woman Further still.
she must be young and pretty These prelim-
inaries being settled in the Chinaman's favor.
he settles down contentedly to get his Sun
day-school lesson.
This has been the universal CUSTOM and it
has resulted IN the ruin Of the Christian qirzs
as anybody but a crazy person might have
known.
The Rev. Paul Wakefield of Illinois. pub
hcly declared, to an audience which made no
demonstration toward lynching him, that
''we missionaries have long known" that the
assignment OF the Christian girl to teach the
slant-eyed hypocrites, resulted In O. greater,
number Of ruined girls than of Chinese CON-
Verts.
After such public declarations as that, and
after such terrible exposures as followed the
murder of Elsie Sigel by her slant-eyed soon
verts', would you have believed that our
American missionaries would persist in their
diabolical system?
Did you not suppose that they would drop
it, Immediately and forever?
Well, they haven't. They are keeping it up.
The newspapers of the middle West carried
the news, last week, that ''the Cinnamon at
Greensburg, Pa, had won their fight to be
taught singly by women in Sunday-school''.
The Cincinnati Post editorially states that
the system is in operation Gin many Sunday
schools of the country
How desperately anxious we are to convert
the heather Since they decline to be taught
by men, or elderly ladies, or middle-aged mas
irons, we accede to their demand for young
and pretty girls, although it means the loss Of
the girls virtue and sOuz and "aoe mission
aries haze long hnoa0m it".

Is there any sense or fairness in that?
If he is not taxed when he sells In Decem-
Der, why should he be taxed, on the very same
cotton, if he waits until May to sell!
It was because [ believed that cotton was
too low and that it could be doomed, that L

dollars for Sully to operate with, not to
gamble, but to buy spot cotton. With mil

can borrow on what he buys, and then borrow
again, and so on,-until the advancing val
ues make the bull movement smooth SAILING.
At the time my suggestion was made,
large part Of the crop was In the hands OF the
farmers But the city papers rldiculed the
idea and nobody took it up, and we all kept
our seats, and sold our cotton,-and then
Wall Street spectators began to put the
price up.
The Southern farmers will never be able to
hold their crops and market them to advan
tage until taxes are lifted from unsold cot
ton, and until they can borrow money at
cheap rates while they are holding.
It is for that reason that [ would welcome
Sully, or anybody else who could give us

money as oJbeaply as oar local banks get 1t.
Anyone who would antagonize such plan
would do so because it threatens competition
with some little scheme Of his own, or with
some local warehouse interest which very nat
urally wants to keep all Of the sugar in its
own gourd.
Sully said he could bring us six-per-cent.

If you can do that, Daniel, fetch it right

The appointment of T. b. Talbert of

the place was made vacant there could
be no appointment necessary, but it is
generally understood that the indorse-

to an appointment to the place, and
Talberts friends are therefore conf
dent that he will be the man.
