MAY BRING ON MORE TROUBLE England Given Privilege Which, For Some Reason, Is Not Ac- cord to Your Uncle Sam. A special.of Friday from Constanti- nople says: The porte has definitely rejected the request for an exequatur for a United States consul at Harpoot, This refusal is regarded by the United States legation as a direct violation of treaty rights, and, consequently, de- spite the refusal, Dr. Thomas H, Nor- ton, who was appointed by President McKinley zome time ago to establish 8 consulate at Hatpoot, has been directed to proceed to his post. The expected visit of the battleship Kep- tucky to Smyrne is believed to relate ss much to this matter as to the in- demnity question, XO OFFICIFL NEWS RECEIVED. -A Washington special eays: The re- fasal of the Turkish government to grant an exequatur to the American consul at Harpoot has not yet been re- ceived by the state department, It will scarcely be expected that such notice will be inade, as the Turkish way generally is procrastination rather than direct refusal, which serves the same end, without giving tangible ground for reprisals. Dr. Norton, who was appointed con- sul at Harpoot, has now been in Oon- stantinople waiting for the exequatur about three months. The claim of the United States iu this case was bas- ed on article 2 of the treaty of May 7, 1830,, which reads: . “And the United: States may appoint their citizens to be con- suls and vice consuls at the com- mercial places in the dominions of the sublime porte where it shall he found necdfal to superintend the affairs of commerce.” ‘The Turkish objection to the estab- lishment of a consulate at Harpoot and Erzeroum under this apparently clear permission has been based on the rather norel reason that thera was ‘no commecce at these two points, and 1it has béen dificult for our officials to ‘establish the contrary proposition. Bat some time ago the Turkish government accorded to the British government the right to establish a consulate at Harpoot and tho -state Aepartment immediately based on ad- y-ional claim on the “favored pation” clans of its general treaty which would pear to warrant it in demand- ing the s°@6 priviloge of establishing consulate st #given point in Turkey, as was grante.’ to Great Britain, ‘Advices from . Naples are to the effect that the United 8.°stes battleship Ken- tacky, which arrive? there Norember 19th, sailed Saturday “oF Smyrna, POPULIST CONVENTION Called to Meet In St. Loula Decem. ¥F 29th By Chairman Parker, National Chairman J, A. Parker, of the national committeo ef the Populi. party, bas issued a call for a conven- tion at St. Louis Saturday, December 29th, to “consider the best interests of tho party and the most effective means of continuing the Sight for Pop- ulist prinsiples; also to confer with such representatives of othor reform parties as may desire to attend, look- ing to the organization of all reform- era against the capitalistic parties.” In his call ho arraigns both the Dem- ocfatic and Republican parties, and says: ‘The Populist party holds the key to the political situation.” Filipino Janta Will Take Chances. United-States Consul Wildman, says a World dispatch from Hong Kong,has information that the Filipino junta, at a meeting held November 15, decided to bravo: the ebances of deportation rather than quit. Hong Kong. APPEAL FOR HELP ‘Made By Storm Vietsns In Little Town of LaGrange, Tennessee. The poople of LaGrasge, Tonn,, haye sent out an appeal for help. They say that all the business portion and nearly all the residence portion of the town ave in rnins and many of the Anhabitants are left utterly destitute. “They ask that contributions be sent to WF, Hancock, mayor of the town. Safe Crackers at Work. Professional cracksmen burglarized ‘the Farmers’ bank at Orland, O..., ‘Weduendéy night, and secured moro than $5,000, The robbers blew the -safe open with nitroglycerine, CONTRACTOR IN TROUBLE. Is Charged With Attempting to Bribe Governor Longino, of Mississippi. In Jackson, Miss., Saturday night J. E. Gibson, a prominent contractor from Logansport, Ind., was arrested on the charge of attempting to bribe Governor Longino and secure his as- sistance in capturing the contiact for the new $1,000,000 capitol building. ‘The arrest was made at the instance of Governor Longino. Immediately after the alleged attempt at bribery occurred he emerged from his private office trembling with excitement, ex- claiming: “You have struck the wrong man; I can’t be bought,” and directed his private secretary to send for-the chief of police to take Gibson into custody. Gibson was arrested a few mtnutes later at the Edwards hotise and uncer- emoniously bundled off to jail, an hour later he was given a preliminary hearing before Judge Fitzgerald and admitted to bail in the sum of $5,000, At the hearing of the testimony Gov- ernor Longino atated that he had re- ceived two visits from.Gibson. Dur- ing the first visit he stated that a com- bination bad been formed among St. Louis and Chicago contractors to cap- ture the state house contract, and he intended to fight their scheme, but would not give away details when the governor asked forcfacts. At the second visit, which occurred Saturday morning, so Governor Lon- gino states, Gibson offered him any sum of money he might ask for his as- sistauce in capturing the contract, in- sinnating that the price of materials could be changed so that both would Le able to makea considerable amount out of the deal, PRINTERS ON STRIKE, Union Men In Many Birmingham, Ala, OMices Walk Out. All the union printera in the jot printing offices in Birmingham, Ala., ‘went ont on strike Friday morning Tho strike was inaugurated for the purpose of enforcing the scale recently adopted by Typographical Union No. 104, and which the proprietors of th job offices refused to pay. Tho nex scale calls for a minimum of $18 per week. Tho old scale’s ininimum was $16, but no printing office in Birming. bam had paid Jees than 816.50, and this was generally regarded as the min: imum, . ‘The printers made some concessions, so far as the daily newspapers are concerned, from their “original de: mands, and they now expect that the newspapers will adopt their ecale, Tho printing offices affected by the strike are Roberts & Son, Leslie Lrinting Company, Dispatch Printing Company, American Nowepaper Union, Birmingham Conrier and City Paper Company. : TURK REMAINS STUBLORN, Sultan Stilt Refuses Lxequator to Out Consnt at Harpoot, A dispatch from Constantinople says: United States Charge d’Affaires Griscome called ypon Tewfk Pasba, minister for foreign affairs to urge s settlement of the difficulty in relation to the granting of an exequatur to Dr. Thomas H, Norton, who come time ago was appointed by President Me- Kinley to establish a consulate al Harpoot. The porte, however, is firm in its refusal to grant the request for on exequatur. In regard to the above a Washing- ton special says: The Turkish authori- ties having refused to grant an exe- qnatur to Dr. Thomas H. Norton, to actos United Statesconsul atHar- p.r0t, the indications point to some re- tal, story measures on the part of our govecnment in the near future. AWAITING DEVELOPMENTS, Administration Will Let Chinese Matter teat Until Other Powers Act. The administration has adopted a waiting policy in the matter of Pekin negotiations, says a New York Herald dispatch from Washington, No action has been taken upon Germany's pro- posgl to make the execution of the Boxer leaders a condition precedent to the continuance of negotiations, The president has decided, it is un- derstood, that this matter can well rest until further developments: show what the German and other govern- sents propose to do. SECOND SURYEY FINISHED, Work on Augusta and Athens Kallroad Begins In Earnest, A epecial from AthenspGa., eays: It begins to look as if the new railroad from Augusta to Athens is to be built atan early date. The second survey of the lina has just been completed, and the work will now follow that will give Athens another yaluable railrond connection. 2 Senate Follows House. Aspecial from Montgomery; Ala., says: The succession bills vetoed by the governor and passed over his veto inthe house met with ‘the same fate inthe senate amid cheers. Tle vote was yery prononnced—28 to 5, - STRIKE RENEWED AT TAMPA In Spite of Agreement to Postpone Action Three Thousand Work-” ers Have Walked Out. ‘° A special from Tampa, Fla, says: In spite of an agreement made Scn- day night to holds general strike in abeyance’ until a committee from Re- sistencia and International cigar mek- ere could get together, the general strike was declared Monday morning. --Ninerlocal unions obeyed the order ‘ofthe trades assembly aud refased to go work and were standing about on the streets. dt is estimated that fourteen hun- dred men have answered the first call and are out. This includes box makers, trimmers, plumbers, carpen- ters, bricklayers, tinners, strippers and painters. The electrical workers, stationery and marine engineers, bar- bers and plumbers are excepted, and the Typographical union has beon ore dered by its executive board to go out. The leaders make the claim that they will have at least three thousand men ont, a8 many others who ore not affiliated will be won over to the cause, Work on at least four hundred houses bas been stopped by this sud- den strike, and it is proposed also to make an effort to get railroad unions to refusa to handle the output of the Tampa factories. It is claimed that this will be a strong card, but as a matter of fact one of the Jeading roads will allow no union man to remain in its employ, and this alone would pro- yide an outlet for the goods. SHERIFF SPEAKS HIS MIND, Bays Polltics Are Relegated When Wo- anan’s Honor Ja Concerned The Rocky Mountain News (Den. yer, Col.) prints the reply of Sheriff Freeman, of Lincoln county, to the letter of District Attorney McAllister, of Colorado Springs, Col., concerning the prosecution of the persons who burned the negro rapist and murderer, Preston Porter, at the stake at Lin- coln, Col., recently. After telling how he was inflaenced into taking Porter from Porter Springs to Limén, upon the assurance of lead- ing citizens of Lincoln cdunty, that he would be allowed to pass through Limon unmolested to Hugo, where he would be permitted to place Porter in thd county jail, Sheriff Freeman de- clares that it’ would bo impossible to geta jury in Lincoln or any adjoining county that wold convick any one charged with participation in the bura- ing of Preston Porter. Hv concludes a8 follows: “T do not justify the cremation, but I do object to having you and Govern- or Thomas saddle the blame of this borning on me, and I will not involve Lincoln county in a needless and fruitless litigation against its own citizens or give additional advertise- ment to the state of Colorado for the sole purpose of making, as it seems to me, political capital for somebody. I want to add that polities cut no ice in the affair. “While Linooln county is a Repabli- can county, the men who participated in this lynching were representatives of all political parties, When it comes to administering death to a brute who first rapes a child and then stabs and kicks her to death, I take it that trne Americans lose aight of more politics and remember only that they aie fathors and brothers. It seems to me that wo had better let this episode rest whera itis now.” METHODISTS ADJOURN. Cloalng Session of North Georgia Confer- ‘onco Was Heplete With Interest. The North Georgia Methodist con- ference, in session at Atlanta, adjourn- ed its thirty-fourth annual session sine dio Monday nighe to meet again in Rome next year, The concluding features of the conference command- ed the largest audience of the entire session. Tha great interest, contered in the announcement of the assignments of the ministers, and when Bishop Hen- drix arose to read the list almost per- foct quiet reigned. Before gratifying the anxiely along this line, however, he announced that he and his cabinet had seen fit to change the districts. The number of districts has been reduced from thirteen to eleven, and the change consists of the consolida- tion of the north and south Atlanta districts into the “Atanta district, the creation of the Marietta district and the abolishment of the Dablonegs and Carrollton districts.

Georgia Legislators, HIS SUBJECT WAS “EDUCATION.” Favors Disfranchisement of Every Voter ‘Who Cannot Read His atloi—Vealses | the State School Commissioner, Dr. J. L. M. Curry, the agent of the Peabody fund, addressed the gen- eral assembly of Georgia at noon Fri. dgy on the subject of education, The two houses had convened in joint session for the purpose. A commit- tee from the two bodies escorted the speaker in, who was accompanied by Governor Candler, State School Com- missloner Glenn and othere, Dr, Cnrry said that the proudest boast of Georgia should be made of her state school commissioner, who was one the best in the entire country. : He ‘represented no corporation. While the lobbyist were abroad, no one had engaged the members in Le: half of thochildren of the state. He came to plead for these and for all of them. . ‘What are you going to do with the poorer class of children?” he asked. “How are you going to educate them to make usefull citizens of them, and how many are handicapped by their unfavorable environments?" The wealth of Georgia is not alto- gether in material things, he said, but ia more in these children who are in the homes of those who sert the law- makers here to esiact laws for them. There was a waste of brain powor iu the state, “Georgia has double the territory of Mastachtusetts, Rhode Island, Oon- necticut, and yet Massachusetts in in- vention, in science, in literature is for ahead of this state in the education of her children, There thay have « nine months’ school term, while here we have threo or four. The average school attendance hero is two or three Pibpeted while there it is seven years, Massa- chusetts gives $30 for the education of ‘achild, while Georgia only gives $2 ‘per child, | Horace Mann did more for’ this country than Daniel Webter, yet Mas- sachusetts erected o monamen to both. Man gavo that state its admiral school system. Isn't a Georgia child a8 good as a Massachusetts child, and isn’t there 9s much latent talent in your children to be developed? “The stato can educate all the obil- dren at balf the price that the church or individuals can educate one-fourth of the children. “Talk about the paramount issue! I have been throngh many of these crisis, and yet we are still going on. The confederate constitution is the most perfeot instrument in the world regarding political wisdom. It provided that the president should hold six years and be ineligible for ro- election, Exalted citizenship ia the remedy for the evils of governmental partnerships in private affairs in vogue in our country today. “Every school in the land should have industrial education:” Dr. Carry favored the disfranchise- ment of any voter who could not read the ballot he put in the box, be he white or black, | Some one had said that this was on inherent right, This is an absurdity stuffed down the throrts of the people of this country, and is done simply to justify negro suffrage, He was going to speak his mind and not those of the members, and be expected to say some thinge that would not be relish- ed by his auditors. 3 “The ‘Republican party, to punish the south, gave the balance of power to the negroes of Lonisiana, Missis- sippi and South Gsrolina by enfran- chising them and disfranchising many of the whites snd then they establish- ed the Freedman’s bureau, “Some people say the negro is in- capable of education, If they will go with him to Spilman seminary, where everything is s nest as « pin; and which is in ‘charge of such godly'| women, if they do not think the negroes, there capable of some degree of education they should go to their hemes on the backs of jackasses.” “Shall Georgia settle this ednes- tional problem for herself,” ho said, “or shall it be left to others. We must upliff the negro or he will drag usdown. No two snch races can oc- cupy the same territory without fric- tion and it is our duty to provide for these."” “Tt all depends on the legislature as to the future progress of the state. Is educational legislation of this session to be generous and full, or niggardly and hurtful? “Ghorgis's childron should be en- abled to compete with any in tho Jand, and itis due tho members to METHODIST CHURCH PAPER In Contereince~Editor Resigns "and Complicates Matters. ‘The North Georgia conference in seasion at Atlanta, Ga., held one of the liveliest sessions Friday porbaps Knownda thehistory of the organiza- tion, For over an hour the delegates grappled with an important question and the disoussion and settlement goes on record as the feature of the confer- ference, The matter which gaused the dis- cnssion was the. report of the commit. tee on The Wesleyan Christign Advo- cate, the Bfethodist paper published by aboard of trustees appointed by the North and South Georgia confer- enoes, and of late differences have arisen between tho two boards in ref- erenco ta the managemont. The cammittee, of wiiich Dr. J. A. Sapes is chairman, realized that some action was necessary to adjust these differences as soon gs possible, but their plan did not meet with the favor of the conference, it seems, and a res- olution was passed, which leaves the situation unchanged. Dr, W. F. Glenn and Dr, W. C. Lovett are the present editors of the paper, Dr. Glenn being froxi the North Georgia conference and Dr. Lovett from the South Georgia conference, In the latter conference opposition has ariscn, it appeara, to Dr. Glenv, and Dr. Lovett appears not to be in great fayor “with some members of the North Geor- gla conforence. * During the discussion Dr. Glenn sroue and after stating that all be had done had beeu, in the interest of tho charph, tendered his resignation as editor of the paper. “There has been no friction whataver between Dr, Lovett and myself,” he said, “Bat I think the present plan impracticable. We have no business mavagement at all” There was only one editor of the paper until about a year ago, when Dr. Lovett was elected. Dr. Glenn had been the editor for eleven year previously. South Georgia wanted a representative on the paper, however, and then the trouble began. The paper at. present has no busi- ness manager, Dr, M. J. Cofer, wlio was elected, refusing to serve. The matter was simply a clash be- tween north and soath Georgia. The differences among the trustees have been kept comparatively secret, but the inevitable volcanio eruption caine Friday, and those engaged in the dis- cussioa did not hesitate in the least:to express just exactly what they thought about the matter either. Some plain words were used. The committee recommended.as a salvo the following preamble in ita re- port: ‘Whereas, thoro seoms to be irrecon- cilable differences existing between the trustees of The Wesleyan Christian Advooate, elected by the North and South Georgia conferences respective- ly, we tharefore recommend 1, Thats commission composed of three Iaymen ‘and threo preachers be elsoted from this conference to confer | with a like conference which we here- by request the South Georgia confer- ence to appoint, looking to an adjast- ment of the existing differences in the present board of trustees touching the management of the paper. 4. In case the South Georgia con- ference should decline to appoint this commission, or if when Appointed the joint commission shonld fail to agree, then the trustees of the North Georgia conference are hereby empowerd fo proceed at once to establish a paper for this conference and elect an editor and business manager, and alao pro- ceed to an equitable division of the assets of the prosent corporation.

While the whole world is prosperous, the United States rcems fo he etipeci- ally so, + Onr exports show an Tncrease of $166,331,178 in the ten montis: end. ing with October, 1900, as compared with the corresponding ten iabaths of 1899, and the total for the ten nionths in practiovlly double what-it was in the corresponding months of 1894, This of itself shows a romarkeble ac- tivity in all lines of production, while import as well as the export figures in- dicate that the activity\in manutaetur- ing lines, and consequently the in- creased earnings of the ‘millions on- gaged in theso industries shtst be very great,” A very considerable “share of the materials required for use-in-matiufac- turing comes from abroad, suck, for instance, 8 india rubber, tinfor uso in maunfacturing tin plate: hemp, jute, sisal, raw silk, cabinet and.dye- woods, chemicals, hides and skins and certain grades of wool ‘and cottou, and by measuring the ‘growth in the importation of theve articles some ides of the growth in manufac- turing may be obtained. ss The total importation of materials of this class used in manufacturing doring the ten months ending with October, 1900, is $238/267,918, as compared with $214,896,757 ‘in the corresponding months of 1899 and $127,301,945 in tho-wame months ‘of 1894. Turning again to the export side, it is found that the exportation of menufacturea alone amount jn the nive months ending with September, 1900, to $338,678,243, ‘against $277,- 502,649 in the corresponding months of 1899 and $145,793,834 in the same months of 1895. Thus the exportation, of mannfac- tures has increased nearly 25 per cent in one year and more than doubled in the four years from 1896 to 1900, while the importation of manufacturers’ materials has also increased ate yory rapid rate. Exports of manufactures, of iron and steal alone amount fe, $10,000,000 in ruund-numbers in-re ten months ending with October,. 1900, against, $86,000,000 in the cor- rexponding months of 1899 and §51,- 000,000 in the corresponding montke of 1897, thna having more than doubled inthe three years {rom 1897 to 1900, Not only have the manufacturer and the millions dependent upon his in- dustry shared in the prosperity of the year, but those engaged in agricultdre and mining seem to have béen equally prosperous, jadging from the record shown by tha Sgures of our export commerce, The exportation of agri- cultaral products in the ten months, ending with Octobsr, 1900, is in round’ terma $700,000,000, as against 2695,- 000,000 in the same months of 1999, while the products of the mine, the forest and the fisheries also show an inereaso in,1909 as compared withthe figures of 1899. oe ‘A comparison of conditions inthe United States with those in obher, countries as measured by the foreign commerce indicates a degree of peos- perity which compares favorably with any country of the world.

SATURDAY DECEMBER 1, 1900. This has been a week of Thanksgiving. The greatest legacy that a man could leave his family after he is called hence is a little homestead, and a good life insurance. SHOULD not every advantage that is taken of the Negro spur him on to do that which would benefit him more and reflect greater credit on the race? PARIS seems to have gone wild over the hypocrite Boer president Kranger. We can never forgive him nor his country for their cruel treatment of the natives. COL. JOHN H. DEVEAUX, one of greatest Romans of them all, was with us this week. There is not a Republican in North Georgia that does not love him.—Atlanta Age. EVERY colored man in the country is interested in the re-election of Senator Chandler. His defeat would take from the senate one of the last of the old stalwarts whose friendship for us is remembered. Our collector came in last week with a sour face and quite disheartened, being "turned down" at every call. No calls therefore have been made this week. We hope that this will be reversed next week. In cost the Republicans of Ohio $57,471.47 to run its campaign. It is stated that the recent white primary in Augusta cost $50,000, just $7,471.47 less than it cost the entire state of Ohio. In the Augusta primary no Negro voted. The recent grand jury of the Superior Court leaves a record that its successors can very profitably imitate. The jury was vigorous in its duties and was determined to give gambling and other classes of vice a black eye. The magistrates were also given a severe rap. SAVANNAH needs a twenty-eight foot channel. The necessity for this is very apparent. An appeal will be made to congress for it, and it will be granted. Congress is Republican, and the Republicans are very liberal in their dealing with the worthy, especially when it will bring prosperity. * There are many Savannah boys lerving their country in the Philippines or elsewhere in Uncle Sam's army. The season is coming when they should be remembered. Their parents and friends should keep this in mind. Articles can be sent those in the Philippines free of charge if the freight is paid to San Francisco. The business men of New York city have taken up the crusade against vice in New York. Bishop Potter has been the leader of the movement. This means that a vigorous campaign will be made against Tammany and its methods, and with the growing sentiment against it, at the coming election it will be overthrown. The Hon. Mr. McKay of Liberty county has introduced a bill in the legislature to increase the number of colored companies to twelve instead of eight. We commend the representative for his thoughtful step, but he can do the colored troops better service by amending his bill so as to allow us a regiment. We have now, and with additional companies, a sufficient number for such an organization. The colored citizens deserve a regiment and we hope that Representatives McKay and Crawford will push it. ONE of our leading white physicians, according to the morning paper, states that the social status of the Negro is so low that he is not liable to appendicitis and that he has never heard of a Negro having that complaint. The Negro is not anxious to have it, but the doctor is not well informed for there have been many cases among the Negro that do not reach the public car. It was only a few weeks ago when a successful operation was performed on one of the race by a physician of his color. This "prominent physician" will have to show other causes for the difference between the races, than its "lower social scale," as it relates to this complaint. The Sun's Correspondent's Views on the Issue. The Director of the census will be prepared to lay before Congress when it meets the official figures of the recent count of population, so that a Reapportionment bill can be drafted at once. There will be no incentive for a partisan row over this proposition, for under the law he representation must be based on the population statistics as shown by the enumeration. But the Constitution also gives Congress the power to reduce the representation of any State that has disfranchised any portion of its citizens. This paragraph is found in section 2, Article XIV, and is follows: "Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers counting the whole numbers of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for choice of Electors for President and Vice-President of the United States, representatives in Congress, the executive and judicial officers of a State, or the members of the legislature thereof is denied to any of the male inhabitants of said State, being 21 years of age and citizens of the United States or in any way abridged except for participation in rebellion or other crime, the bases of representation therein shall be reduced in proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to whole numbers of male citizens 21 years of age in such State" No one will deny that there is ample authority for reducing the representation of more than one Southern State under this clause of the Constitution, and it is quite certain that a large number of Republicans of influence in both House and Senate think it is not only the right but the duty of Congress so to fix the representation of every State that it shall be in just proportion to that of every other State based on the census figures of the population of voting age. There are other republicans of prominence, however, who while admitting that the South should be made to pay the penalty of its disfranchisement of Negroes, are inclined to believe that it would be unwise for political and other reasons to attempt to interfere with the Southern States in their efforts to settle the Negro question, and that the South should be treated as erring sisters and magnanimously allowed to go their way in peace, no matter what their faults may be. No proposition has been presented to Congress in recent years looking to the reduction of representation of Southern States that disfranchise certain classes of citizens, but for a long time the Republican party has been urged to reduce the representation from Southern States, in national conventions, and has received the endorsement of some of the wisest men in the Republican party. The most recent effort in this direction was made last winter when the Republican National Committee met for the purpose of selecting a place for holding of the national convention. Henry C. Payne, the Wisconsin member of the committee had prepared a resolution on the subject which had been universally indorsed by Republicans throughout the United States. It was made public a few days before the committee met and Mr. Payne expressed his intention of having the committee take definate action upon it. On the advice of Mr. Hanna, however, Mr. Payne withdrew his resolution and nothing more was heard of it. It is probable that when the Speaker of the House and his lieutenants, the steering committee of the Senate and others who are responsible for party legislation meet, they will after consultation with President McKinley to some conclusion as to the advisability of allowing the question of some Southern representation to come up at this session or at some future time or of permitting it to be ignored altogether. The latter course will probably be adopted. In anticipation, however, of a possible consideration of the question the Director of the Census will be ready to submit official figures by the 1st of January next showing the number of citizens, white and colored, and the number of votes actually cast at the Presidential and Congress elections of this year. This information would be used as a basis for any legislation in the direction of making the South pay the penalty of its anti-suffrage laws, if it would be to advantage to make a move in that direction. What sentiment of Congress would be on the abstract question of cutting down the representation in those States that have disfranchised the Negro is indicated by the views of several Congressmen who have already expressed themselves on the subject. Congressman Hopkins of Illinois, who is the present chairman of the Census Committee, and who has been reelected, has for a long time been in favor of amending the laws so as restrict every State to the number of Representatives to which she is Constitutionally entitled. He is a radical Republican and a man of influence in the House. The opposite view is taken, of by Democrats generally, and particularly those from Southern States Thus Representative Swanson of Virginia boldly says: "I will fight any measure of this character as long as I remain in Congress. While I may not be able to defeat it in the House it would be talked to death in the Senate. The Republicans should be warned by experience not to trample upon the South, for every time they have undertaken to do so they have suffered defeat. The South should be permitted to deal with the Negro question as it sees fit and not to be dictated to by the North. The Senate is still open to free debate, and we will talk the bill to death if nothing else can be done." Representative Dayton of West Virginia, a Republican but a Southern man, takes the opposite view and agrees with Hopkins. He says: "While I am from the South and believe in the South, I must say that it looks unfair to me to see a handful of voters elect a member of Congress in one part of the United States and thousands be required in other States for the election-of a member with no more power than the first. This year there were between 55,000 and 65,000 votes cast in my district, I venture to say that the total vote for the seven Representatives in Mississippi will fall below the number in my district. That does not seem fair; and while I should think the Republican party would go slow in any matter of this kind if the leaders make up their minds to pass such a bill I believe that it will pass and that it will be little more than right. In this Hayes case, the Supreme Court of the state has reversed the decision of Judge Falligant, and it has done so justly and at the same time it shows up the judge in a not too enviable position, when prejudice is taken into consideration. The main cause for the reversal of the decision is thus given: "This being a case in which the evidence was decidedly conflicting and the trial court, in its instruction to the jury, having not only failed altogether to mention the main contention of the accused, which was supported by evidence, and which, if true, presented good matter of defense, but having also failed to fully and fairly submit to the jury the real issues involved and the law applicable thereto, the ends of justice require a new trial. Judgment reversed." By the decision as quoted above it shows that the verdict of the jury alone was contrary to the evidence and that Hayes should never have been convicted of murder in the first degree. The supreme court plainly says that "the evidence was decidedly conflicting," and no man's life should be sacrificed on conflicting evidence. The judge of a court should be a man of impartial and unprejudiced mind, and in his charge to the jury, full justice should always be given to the contention of the accused, especially whenever it is supported by good evidence. It is hoped that in the coming trial full justice in every respect will be given the accused. Much is being said about the lynching of colored men in other parts of the country other than the south, and the people of the south are balming themselves with the idea that they are not the worst ones in the country. It is true that lynching is spreading itself, but there is one distinct thing that occurs in the north and west that does not in the south. Whenever mobs a re gathered in these sections for illegal action they are liable to carry out their intention, but sooner or later some of its members are brought to justice, and no mercy is shown and the standing of the accused does not stand in the way of the execution of the law. It is not so in the south. It is a very difficult matter in the south of ever bringing to trial any one accused of being engaged in a mob or lynching party unless he has a black face. In his address before the Georgia Legislature, Dr J. L. M. Curry, agent of the Peabody Fund, said that the man who could not read his ballot ought not be allowed to vote. The TRIBUNE fully agrees with Dr. Curry. While we agree to this, we are totally against the sentiment in the south to disfranchise the ignorant colored voter and cast every possible protection around the ignorant white voter. Treat ignorance alike. An ignorant white man can not understand affairs any better than an ignorant colored man, and for that reason he should not be given any preference whatever. THE liberality of the scholars of the East Broad Street School needs the commendation of everybody. Of course the principal and teachers should come in for a large share of it. Local Brevities. The Ladies and Gentlemen Soiree Club will hold its regular monthly meeting Wednesday night Dec. 5th at the residence of Mrs. S. T. Emery, 789 Gwinnett street, east. By order of Mrs. S. T. Emery, President; Mrs. P. Scott, Secretary. The Twilight Reapers Aid and Social Club is an institution fostered by a number of young lads that is doing much good for them. Besides the financial aid that is given, the club has a female auxiliary, and once each quarter they hold a joint meeting at which time literary features are had. The members of the club are very progressive, and it buts fair to become one of the leading institutions of the city. No mason should be void of loyalty to the order. Grand-Master W. E. Terry was in the city yesterday. Iohie Lodge at Vienna is doing great work. It has recently added nine pieces of timber to the building. Past Master Wm Pate of Walthourville sends us word of cheer. He is an old veteran in the cause, and like a race horse is always ready for a contest. The many communications received from various bethreen are real encouraging and show that they are working hard for the betterment of the order. Great is masonry and all of its works are bound in greatness, but its greatness must not be made less by those who are disloyal. It would be for better for them to leave the order. Past Master Jesse Robinson of Macon, has been appointed Most Excellent D. D. Grand High Priest for Georgia of the R. A. M.'under the jurisdiction'of the District of Columbia. Past Master A. B. Hawkins of Claxton and Past Master G. W. Garvin of Shepherd were in the city on Tuesday. They are interested in the higher branch of Masonry and are energetic in that direction. Bro. John Stephens the worthy treasurer of Eastern Star Lodge was in the city yesterday and as is his custom came up to see us. Bro. Stephen is a stunner citizen of Pembroke and is well liked by everybody. Past Master J. J. Jenkins of Landmark is wide awake to the needs of his lodge and its obligation to the W. and O. Home. He and Past Master A. T. Spight of Early Spring are a "whole team". Loyal brethren they are. Worshipful Master H. Randall of Jonathan Lodge wants the craft to know that Jonathan is forging a head. That it is doing its part for the finishing of the W. and O. home and will continue to do that which will foster masonry. EDITOR TRIDENE, Savannah Ga. Please insert this for the benefit of H. R. A.

The First Baptist Church, celebrated its one hundredth anniversary beginning on Sunday last. This Church has had some very eminent ministers, many of whom were closely identified with the work of our people during the days of slavery.

DesVerney, and P. L. Bowens. The climax of the anniversary was capped at night when the members of the company and their guests gath ered at Labor hall, on Bryan street, for the evening entertainment. The spacious hall was crowded, and it was inspiring to see the number of persons on the floor at one time. The music was excellent. Shortly after 12 o'clock the grand march was had led by the adjutant of the battalion, which wended its way through the supper room, where one of the finest prepared tables ever seen was viewed. After this dancing was resumed and supper announced afterwards. A table was especially prepared for the officers and their friends. Veteran Capts. L. A. Washington and J. H.

Hand painted tapestries are some of the new and handsome materials which are used for hangings, draperies of all kinds, and even for upholstery. The tapestry comes with large, convenialized flowers in striking colors, and is effective. New Things For the Table. Among the new things for the table are glass bowls for flowers with flaring bent rims. Grill like wire covers fit the top of the bowl, so that the artistic and pretty arrangement of the flowers is a simple matter, the stems passing through the opening between the wires, which serve to hold the flowers in place. These wire arrangements come in a variety of shapes and sizes to fit almost any flower holder, but the bowls are the newest. Welsh rabbit plates in very good ware are also new. They are of a creamy color and have as a decorative feature realistic rabbits nibbling at realistic leaves of lettuce, the lettuce introduced to show that these plates are impartial and that they may be used for salad when not otherwise employed. Ventilating Bedrooms. In all seasons of the year the sleeping and living rooms need constant attention in order that the temperature may not be excessive in either direction and the warmth may not be at the expense of ventilation. The very young bear high temperature badly, as is noticed in summer, and the old cannot stand the cold, so that where there are old persons in the family the thermometer must stand at a slightly higher point than usual, which is sixty-eight to seventy degrees. All rooms should be flushed out at least once a day with fresh air, and this is particularly necessary when two or more persons occupy a room. Bedrooms should have all windows and doors open at least an hour every morning, and the bed should be opened and the clothing thrown back or taken off and spread over the chairs, so that cool, fresh air can penetrate every part. The little sunlight that can be found in winter should be allowed to enter the rooms. -Popular Science News. The Furnace Firo. A whole winter's annoyance may be saved by coming to a thorough understanding of the furnace and its workings early in the season. No matter how good the "help" in other directions, the housewife should understand the "know how" of furnace management, and insist upon certain rules being carried out, if the house is to be kept at the proper temperature with the least labor, and the greatest saving of fuel. The furnace fire should be shaken down and raked perfectly clear in the morning. A few shovefuls of coal should be put on and all the draughts opened. The ashes should then be taken up. As soon as the coal begins to burn well, and the fire looks clear at the bottom, put in enough coal to come almost to the top of the firepot. Keep the draughts open until all the gas has burned off; then close them, and later, if the fire be too hot, open the checks. Except in extremely cold weather this is all the attention that ought to be necessary through the day. The fire must be raked down and fresh coal put on in the evening, but a small amount of coal will answer for the night, unless the draughts have been open the greater part of the day. On an extremely cold day it may be necessary to have the draughts open a part of the time, and some coal put on at noon. All the clinkers should be removed when the fire is raked down in the morning. The water pan should be replenished in the morning. Some careless people leave the ashes for days at a time at the bottom of the furance, where they absorb the heat, robbing the house of its share and often burning out the grate. If the furnace fire be allowed to burn to a white heat it will be ruined for that day, unless some coal be put on a little later. The cold air boxes must admit enough air to drive the hot air through the house, but not more than can be heated. HOUSEHOLD RECIPES: Rock Snow.—Boll a cup of rice in sweet milk till quite soft, sweeten with half-cup of sugar and pile on a fancy dish. Lay on it bits of currant jelly. Beat the whites of five eggs with three tablespoonfuls of sugar; when very stiff add a tablespoonful of cream and drop over the rice roughly, giving it the form of a rock of snow. Ornamental as well as delicious. Ginger Wafers.—One-half cup sugar; take a cup, put in three tablespoonfuls of hot water, five of melted shortening, one even teaspoonful soda. Fill the cup with molasses, pinch of salt, one tablespoonful ginger, one dessertspoonful of vanilla. Roll thin, cut in squares and bake in a quick oven. These will keep for a long time in a dry place. Doughnuts.—One cup of sugar, one cup of sour milk, one teaspoon butter, heaping; two eggs, one scant teaspoon of soda, half-saltspoon of nutmeg or teaspoon of cinnamon, flour enough to roll out as soft as possible; cut out with a cutter that makes a hole in the center. Cook in a deep kettle of lard; when hot enough a blue smoke will rise. Plantation Chill Cure is Guaranteed To Cure or Moer. Refunded by Your Merchant, so Why Not Tax it?
