ilthlI the best evidence that the
Ijdfnt felt no partisan hostility to
southern people was found in the
that he appointed a representative
a southern state secretary of the in-
rior.
There was a deep sympathy with the
uthern people in all portions of the
or ,h in view of the tremendous prob-
iu, confronting them. Individually,
aid, he believed that the questions
ould be solved in the near future by
iriie? re-aligning on economic and in-
ittriai lines. He believed that the
itcrial development of the South, so
pidly occurring, would furnish the
to unlock the situation with the
Vflopraent of the inexhaustible natu-
resources withing nearly all of the
uthern states.
Said Mr. Shields: “New interests,
w policies, new views, will constant-
demand the attention of the busi-
luan and of the joung roan of the
rath. When this country, North and
mth, forgets the differences of the
lsI, and realizes that its destiny is he
re it and not behind it,and rises to the
igencies of the present, accepting the
suits of the war in good faith, then
astounding progress of the first cen-
ry of our national existence will pale
fore the magnificent grandeur of the
it century. In the expectation of a
alization to some extent of the results,
hail the new star which has arisen
the South, and extend both hands to
elcouie you within the circle of the
idustrial states. The voices of Wash-
igton, Jefferson, Madison, Hamilton,
ranklinand others, the founders of
ir country, thunder down the centu-
bidding the people of the United
tates encourage and foster manufac-
res. As they reverberate along the
uirse of time, Jackson, Webster and

rain is precipitated: and the phenom

quarters, and at different seasons of the

Titus, the phases of the weather may
cause profound and bewildering inves

which results from wisely interrogat

Through nature it is easy and natu

God of Nature with his awful and in

there is no more natural, profitable, and
profound topic of conversation, than
the weather; and he who has not at

has too long neglected, contemplations
which would produee both profit and

The, appropriations for pensions in
the year ending June 30,1889, was $SS,-
400,000, and it is a question with the
commissioner of pensions whether the
amount expended will reach $105,000-
000. Adding to this $$8,000,000 appro
priated for past services, the $68,600-
000 we pay for the services of the 36,
GOO men constituting our present army
and navy, we find that our total annual
military and naval burden is $147,000,
000. This at vast expediture for peace
times, and the country is not the better
pleasod with it when it reflects that the
most of it i6 money thrown away. It
exceeds, it must be confessed, the mili
tary expenditures of the much-pitied
monarchies of Europe.
Our expediture for pensions alone
exceeds the cost of the most powerful
standing armies of this age of bloated
armaments. Germany, for instance,
spends but $86,COO,000 a year to main
tain her efficient standing army of 445,-
000 men. The 16,750 men in the Ger
man navy represent an expenditure of
but $9,000,000 more. The amount,
therefore, we are likely to spend this
year in pensions would maintain the
army and navy of the most powerful
empire on the continent.. Germany's
annual outlay for pensions, however, is
but $5,100,000, thongh Germany has
carried on two great wars since our
last 1861-65. Evidently we are very
much overdoing the pension business.
England maintains her very expen
sive army of 210,000 men on from $85,-
000,000 to $90,000,000 a year. Her mag
nificent navy, with its complement of
48,280 men, costs her hut $63,000,000 a
offices In Montana to “barter” except
■such as are graeionsy supplied by his
father, tlie President. The young
man’s high-lianded performances are
just wtiat might he expected from an
ambitious young mart without brains or
moral ballast; but tlie conduct of the
President in furnishing him with a
stock in trade of Federal offices for pur
poses of barter is astounding, though in
the line of his whole course in tlie ap
pointment of Federal officials.—Nash
ville American.
Such villainous slander is eargerly
copied by the New' Yojk Star and other
Democratic organs, and vouched for.
Mr. Harrison is in New York and de
voting his time to hard work upon his
paper. He has not been in Montana
for months, and the charge that he has
attempted “to barter” offices in Mon
tana exists only in the imagination of
Democratic experts. Mr. Harrison
from early manhood has been a man of
business, and has shown himself fully
qualified to take care of himself. He
has accumulated a handsome compet
ence by his ow'n efforts, and if there
has ever been a shadow or stain upon
his correct life, the public is not aware
of it.—Chicago InterOcean.
Tlie American’s comments on young
Russell Harrison are not only vouched
for by Democratic organs, hut have
been uttered very plainly by Repulicans
in Montana, as the. Inter Ocean well
knows. The charge by the American
about this swell headed young upstart
had not its origin in the “imagination
of Democratic experts,” but in the ob
servation of Montana Republicans, one
of whom put his opinion on paper over
his ow n signature, and tried to make
Mr. Harrison, the elder, understand
something of the performances of Har
rison, the younger. The Inter Ocean
says that Harrison" Jr., is in New
York devoting himself to his work
there, and has not been in Montana for
several month. That is what we com
plain of. Young Harrison’s business
and his legitimate interests are in New
York; yet he has kept a pseudo resi
dence in Montana for form’s sake, and
kept a newspaper running there, to aid
him in his purpose to boss the poli
tics of the State. He has tried to boss
Montana politics through the aid of his
Montana newspaper and the Federal
appointments which he controlled. At
least,that is what Montana Republicans
ay about the young man, and they
have the best means of knowing.

in order to perpetuate taxes on un

Such a policy never was, is not now

The following from the Rome Tribune,
with regard to a Training school for
Girls is pertinent to the times, as the
Legislature will soon convene:
One of the most interesting measures
that will be presented to the considera
tion of the next Georgia legislature^ a
bill to establish an industrial school for
the technical education and training of
white girls in this State.
The author of the bill is Representa
tive W. Y. Atkinson, of goweta, who
upon the experience of several years in
the lower house, has founded a reputa
tions* for thoughtfulness, conservatism
and ability w'hich is surpassed by
few members of that body. Mr. Atkin
son’s name, influence and conspicuous
ability as a debater, guarantee a.strong
presentation,and a forceful advocacy of
this measure.
The measure itself is well worthy the
attention, and we are prepared to say,
the endorsement, of the law'-makers of
Georgia. It is a matter of astonishment
that the State,which annually expends
between forty and fifty thousand dollars
for the higher education of its young
men, should withhold the expenditure
of a single dollar, to the development
and education of its young women,
whom the reverses of fortune have com
pelled to support themselves. The
time is past when the labor fields of the

The pretty little suburban hamlet of
Highland Park, opposite New Bruns

greatly excited over the behavior of a
bride who refused to wed her lover at
the last moment, or until it was settled
that her intended mothcr-iu-law should
not live with her. The bridegroom was

There are thousands of worthy, ambi

State, whose dependent circumstances
force them to rely upon their own ex
ertions for a support. There is no rea
son and no justice in refusing to these
young women an opportunity of making
themselves proficient in some useful
occupation by a regular course of tech
nical training, such as that which Geor
gia so amply affords to its young men
in the technological school at Atlanta
If Mr. Atkinson’s bill should meet
with the prompt concurrence of the

When the bridegroom went to con

tiny foot down very hard and demanded
to know whether Hulbut’s mother in

arrangement had been made he ad

The insulting Old Whig appeal to |

is very mfturally followed by a repeti

“Taxed clothing and free whisky”— 1
“dear sugar and cheap tobacco”—these
would be strange shibboleths indeed in
the mouths of Democrats! Fancy Jef- |

Democratic party to abolish all taxes
on vices, indulgences and luxuries in
order to so diminish the revenues as to-
render perpetual the Republican war |
taxes on the necessities of the people!
The taxes on whiskey and tobacco are j
impositions which every man can avoid
for himself—and a great many men
would be better off for doing so. The
tariff taxes on the food, fuel, clothing |

ever, be avoided. Only the Goverment |
