Why Fuch HaeteT
An Atlanta dispatch In to day’s Morning
: St.ws contains the informa:ion that a bll>
| to change tbe method of choosing county
| commissioners for this couuty was iniro
duced into the House yesterday by Kepre*
; sentatlve Osborne, that it was referred to a
i special committee 1 hat has already agreed
to report it favorably to-day and
that unless there Is a p ro
tes: from this county .t will be
passed on Mo day, in ail probability. This
rushing of tbe bill through at railroad
si>eed would seem to indicate that Itsfri nds
! fear delay would e fatal to it —that if the
taxpayers of ('hatham have a chance to sx
’ press themselves *ith regard to it tbey will
j condemn it.
It is entirely safe to say that tbe bill do -s
not uiee. w.th the app oval of a majority
of tbe taxpayers. It is doubtful if very
uia y of them eouid be induced to sign a
petition to have the present law changed.
1. is well understood who are back of the
movement to make tbe commis none: sel ct
ive and what tbe objeot, is that is sought to
be accomplished.
If the taxpayers want different men in tbe
b aid of commisdoners, they can very
easily have them. The terms of the presen.
commissioners end in March, and
the grand jury of that term of the supe
rior court will came to the governor
their success -rs. The grand jury is
al ays composed of men who have
at heart tbe best interests of the oounty.
If the taxpaye s, or sny considerable
number of them, wise to make suggestion'
to the graud jury relative t > commissioners
they ere at liberty to dc so, and are certain
of a respectf .1 bearing. Surely tbe grand
jury, a sis:ed by taxpayers, would likely
select as honest and capable men to manage
tbe county’s affairs as wouldbe selected at
a county election where the influence
of interested parties would be stronglv
felt, where the choice would be
limited virtually io a few men brought for
ward by adroit political ma age uent, and
where a lar..e portion of the voters would be
too indifferent to inquire who were the best
men for commissioners.
It Is doubtful if any one of the present
board of commissioners is anxious for a re
appointment. It is certain that if they are
not wanted it is an easy matter to get rid of
them. No one of them would seek a re
appointment If evidence were presented
that his services were not wanted.
It is clear that the safer plan is to leave
the power to select the commissioners
where it is. If the elective plan is adopted
politicians will name tbe commissioners a ,and
manage tbe affairs of the oounty. Investi
gation would disclose the fact, probably,
that the most of those who are calling for a
change in the law are not taxpayere.
Before the legislature acts upon this bill
that Mr. Osborne has introduced it should
inform itself as to how tbe property holders
of the oounty view it. That Is the proper
course for it to pursue if it seeks the publio
good. In the meantime the taxpayers, it
they are alive to their Interests, will take
some actiou with respect to the bill.
Bend the Military to Washington.
The determination of the Georgia Hus
sars to take an aoilve part In tbe inaugural
ceremonies at Washington next March it a
patriotic movement by a part of her citi
zen-soldiery that Savannah should regard
with pride. The Hussars are a fine body of
men, and will do credit to their oity and state
among any other trooiw from any part of
tbe union tbat may visit the national capi
tal. Their history is one of which any mili
tary organization might be proud, dating,
as it does, from colonial days, and embrac
ing some of the most stirring scenes and
times through which the country has
pas ed.
The First Volunteer regiment, however,
should be included in any movement of the
Savannah military to illustrate this city
and state at Washington. One company of
the regiment, the Oglethorpe Light In
fantry, has already voted to make the trip.
I bis regiment possibly more nearly repre
sents the direct line of military succession
from the days when the lirst settlers had to
defend themselves against Indians and
Spaniards than any other in the city, and
with these men and the Hussars as Georgia’s
representatives, her patriotism, chivalry
and military spirit would he haudsomeiy
represented.
In urging that the regiment be inoluded
in the Washington trip it is not intended to
dotraot from any of the other organiza
tions. They all—cavalry, infantry and
artdlery—sprang from a common source,
are heirs to the same traditions and aspira
tions, all typify that readiness to respond to
the call of duty that has stood the state
and city in such good stead, and all
occupy a warm place in the people’s affec
tions.
Should the First regiment express a
desire or determination to Join the Hussars
on their trip, it should be the pleasure of
citizens to contribute to a fu'd to uni
form them as a regiment, including over
coats and knapsacks, and to pay a part of
the expenses of the trip. The members of
the companies of the regiment oould and
would pay a large part of the expenses
themselves. The Morjtino News suggests
that such a fund be raised. In eba ge of a
competent committee the necessary amount
of money could be procured In a short
while, and the satisfaction that would be
felt, eveu by those at home, on March 4,
when “our boya” join In oelebrating the
greatest victory the democracy has ever
won, would more than counterbalance the
outlay in time and money.
It is thought that about #500.000 whs
waged on the election in New York city
alone. Among the big winners reported
are Mike Dwyer, who is reported to have
won SBO,OOO, John and James Mahoney,
whose uu ted earnings are placed at SBO,OOO,
Edward Murphy, Jr., chairman of the demo
cratic state committee, $50,000; John Car
roll, SOU,OjO, Joseph O. O’Douohue, $30,000;
Ed Kearney, $85,000; H. H. Hart. *40,000;
N. J. Tho mpson, $30,000, and John Kelley,
$15,000. A great many won sums varying
all the way from SIOO to $ 0.000.
Those New York politicians who said at
Chicago that Mr. Clevelo and oould not carry
New York, aui that if nominated be would
be defea ed by a much larger majority of
the electoral college than iu 1868, are under
stood to admit that they were greatly mis
taken.
During the campaign Mr. Cleveland kept
tolling bis frie ds .o look for surprises in

THE MORNTNG NEWS: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1892.
Maj. McKinley’s Work.
The overwhelming defeat which the Re
publican part? has suffered is largely due
to Maj. McKinley. He undoubtedly be
lieved that the passage of his tariff bill
would flx the tariff policy of tbe govern
ment for many years. He considered only
the manufacturers, and thought if be could
make them prosoerous and rich they would
provide sufficient money to keep the Repub
lican party in power. He did not even heed
the warning of Mr. Blaiue, w .0 condemned
tbe bill In u 1 measured term-, because it
contained nothing for the farmers. Mr.
Blaine saw me Bunder bis party was max
ing and sougit to avoid to some
extent the effect of it by in
grafting upon the bill bis celebrated
reciprocity policy—a p >lioy at which both
Maj. McKiuley ad Mr. Heed, at that time
speker, snae.ed. Even the Presiden. re
garded the reciprocity soheind with dis
favor until after the p uiu.ar 00 ide n .ation
of the MoKiniey tariff to 1890, and then,
seeing that the tide of publio sentiment was
strongly against his party onaccouutof tba:
tariff, he laid great stress upon its reciproc
ity feature, going so far as to claim much
of the oredit for that feature.
But Mr. Cleveland saw much farther into
the future than even Mr. Blaine. When
he sent his celebrate i tariff message
to congress toward the close of
bis administration he understood
that tariff taxation was the
great issue, and that the party tbat stood
squarely for reducing tbat taxation would
command the oonfldeuce and support of tue
people. He was bit erly cr.tiuised by the
leade.sof bis ova party fur tnat message.
They declared it would cause tbe defeat of
bis party at tbe next uati >nal election. The
Democratic party, with Mr. Cleveland as its
leader, was defeated. It had a majority of
the popular vote, but the almost unlimited
use of money, furnished by the promoted
monopolists wbs bad booms alarmed
by olr. Cleveland's tariff utterances, pre
vented it from gett.ng a najority of the
electoral votes At that time tne pe pin did
not realize as fully as they did subsequently
the importance of Mr. Clerelaud’s tariff
message.
Tbe democratic leaders who declared so
emphatically that that messsage was
a great mistake would hardly be willing
now to stand by that opinion. It is pretty
safe to assume taat tbey have come to be
lieve that Mr. Cleveland acted wise y in
sending It to congress, because it brought
about a condition of affairs that has finally
resulted in putting the Democratic party in
control of the government by such an over
whelming majority that tbat party may
reasonably expect to remain in power for
many years.
The defeat of the Democratic partv on
the Issue made by Mr. Cleveland’s message
led Maj. MoKiniey and other republican
leaders to believe that the country would
submit to still higher pr >tection, and they
thought to hold control of tbe government
for an indefinite period by means of the
money they would get from protected
manufacturers,and the force bill, which was
on their programme, and with which they
expected to break the sol and soueb.
If Maj. McKinley and other republican
leaders bad been ooutent to let the tariff re
main as it was at tne close of Mr. Cleve
land’s administration the country might
have tolerated the Republican party awhile
longer, but the policy outlined by Mr.
Cleveland in his mes.-ago would have event
ually prevailed. Maj. McKinley is now
convinced probably tnat the people thiuk
the tariff is a tax whioh the consu . er pays,
not a ithstending his assertion that it is
not.
Asa matter of course, Taubeneck, of the
People’s party, is disgruntled because of
the sweeping democratic victory. That
victory means that hereafter there will be
neither room nor excuse for the existence of
bis party. Not that the democrats have the
slightest idea of catering to the rid culous
demands of the populists, tiut at the end of
four years of democratic control of the gov
ernment it will no doubt be found that such
relief has been afforded the people by wise
aud conservative legislation that the Peo
ple's party and its demands will be among
the things forgotten as p dltioal faotors.
Consequently Taubeneck s occupation will
be gone.
The Chicago Tribune thinks the Demo
cratic party took an unfair advantage of
the republicans because it did n it make its
fight on “free trade and a state Dank cur
rency.” The reason the Ilemcratio party
did not do so was simply b.-oause those were
not the issues of the campaign, as the repub
licans should have found out before now
for themselves. They made the fight on
those imaginary issues—worked them for
all they were wortfi, too —and got the worst
licking that any party has bad since the
days of Horace Greeley.
If James 8. Clarkson, and a host of other
republicans, are sincere in what they say—
that the result of the election is an order
from the people fra change of the eco
nomic policy of the government—we mav
expect Gen. Clarkson and the others to
identify themselves with the Democratic
partv during the next four years. 1 hat is,
if they are patriotic enough to forego the
ohance for spoils and heed the demauds of
the people. Stranger things than that have
happened.
Tom Carter is of the opinion that this rev
olution went backward, t at the people
could not keep up with tiie proere s of repub
lican policy. The old party as a little fast,
it ts true, filching the earnings of working
men from their p ckoti to be dropped Into
the pockets of its favorites before it bad es
tablished itself firmly in power behind a
wall of bayonets. But the people caught
up with it and gave it a turn backward. U,
no. there was no going backward among the
people!
Boutelle, of Maine, who. with Cabot
Lodge, of Massachusetts thinks that in the
distnb itton of ability it was about all
dumped into Now England, says the demo
cratic landslide was caused by the Ignir
auoeof the to ers. For twenty odd years,
accordi g to Boutelle’s theory, the voters
wre comparatively wise, but all at once
they lapsed iuto Imbecility.

An Artist in Railroad Bo ,and.
”1 want to put a few thousand dollars in rail
road bonds,” said a newly enriched “jayhawk,”
entering a Wall street broker's oifice.
•‘VYnat s rt would you prefer!” asked the
head of the firm.
"Well.” re ponded the "jay” reflectively, ac
cording to tbe New York herald, "i want some
oft e rest I have a few now that I bought
out west They're prit ted on thic paper and
they've g't a lot of petures on them and red

Uot any like tnat?”
The broker had never thought of the bond
from an arti-tic standpoint aud was amazed,
ile tried to explain to the customer that tue
number of pictures wasn't of any Importance
compar and with the solveucy of the company.
“O, pshaw!” exclaimed th • “jay.” impa
tiently, "That s too thin You're dealing with
a man who kno.vs what's what. I want bonds
with pictures of ladies witli swords in their
hand and helmets o i uielr hea Is. arid the en
graving's got to be first class or I don’t buy. ■’
“Tin afraid you'll have to go somewhere
else.” sai l the hanker, frigidly, “we have no
flaming ladies wiib stvords on their heads, or
whatever you sai i ”
"And this is Wail street:”
“It ia”
“ ut in Boise City, Idaho, railroad bonds are
covered all over with plc.uresof trains climbing

"We have not?”
“Say, bow many colors do you print your

Dr. W. A. Tildzr discovered some months

had also fouud that tbe same chan ■ could b

duced resembles pure Para rubber In every
way. and, h>i her It is genuine rubber or not,
it may be equally good for ad pract.c .1 . ur
puses It vulva izes, for instance. It, there
fore, seems possible t at we may soon be able
to make india rubber commercially. If this ig
posslb e, a fortune awaits the inventor w 10 can

How loro Is the natural life of a ship?
From a table cited by Ho ert Tbom ison, t e
new 1 res dent of the northeast coast engineers
and ship-b lilders, it appears t at t/iis isjiosom.
ext-nt aqu stion of wh-re the ship is built.
Vessels constructed in the United .States last o
an average 18 years only. French ships avera. t
'-0; Dutch, 22; German, 25; British. 26; Italia
27, and Norw gian 30. Tbe average deat .-rat.
of tue world's shipping is about 4 per cent., an .
the birth rate 5 per cent. A preference at the
pr sent t me is shown for certain parts of aves
sal b dog of steel instead of iron, such as tank
tops and decks, -xpo-ed to the weather; but in
Mr. Thompson's opinion, it wou and be muen bet
ter to keep the material tbe same throughout,
as far as possible, and he would prefer the steel
being of the sane thickness as the iron.
“Rais gambling" is the latest vice to develop
in India, and the police of Bombay and Cal
cutta are j ist now vigorously at work prosecut
ing rai l gamblers in t ie local courts in an en
deavor to show that the law includes this form
of gambling, says the Buffalo Comme cial.
In Calcutta the "outfit” of the rain
gamblers is in the streeis in the Burra bazaar.
Here into a small rank, four feet squar and six
Inches deep, an ordinary spout discharges rain
from tiie roof of a 3 -story bui ding. In gam
b ing with tnis apparatus bets are made at the
beginning of the rainy season as to whether or
not the tank wllloverfiow at a given shower to
the evtent t ie rain will overflow it when the
water sheets come down in proper tropical
style. It is alleged t hat on busy days in the ba
zaar several piles of rupees change hands. This
is surely vice made easy for the lazy men
A most curious event occurred at Mantas the
other day, relates the London Standard.
I.ucien Petit, ’.7 years of age, while driving In a
cart drawn by a hor.-e and donkey, passed a
garden in widen there were some forty bee
hives. Whether from the excersive heat, or
some other cause, the bees swarmed out on tbe
approach of the cart, and the lad just bad time
to jump down an I t ike refuge in a ditch full of
water, when they attacxed the team. Mad
dened by the myriad of slings, the poor animals
galloped away at a furious rate, followed by the
bees. The donkey soon succumbed, and the
horse survived only a very short ti ne. The lad
in t ie ditch witnessed tuts extraordinary sceue,
trembling with fear. When the horse and
donkey were dead the oloud of bees flew back
to their hives, and Luoien Petit, taking cou age,
crept out of t e diten and ran off to Mantes,
wher-, it can easily be imagined, his story was
scarcely credited.
John D. Rockefeller, tbe Rtandard.Oil mag
nate, is one of the few millionaires who devote
much oft: eir time to tiie improvement of the
condition oj others When not called away by
social or business engagements you are pretty
sure to find him at home evenings. Here In hie
costly aud well equipped library he receives
his visitors, many of wnora repres nt ti e vari
ous benevolent and religious undertakings in
which he is interested. Mr. Rockefeller has for
years beeu a hearty supporter, financially
and personally, of foreign missionary work,
aud no layman, perhaps, is so wel. informed
concer Ing the details of it. He has a personal
acquaintance with many of the leading mis
sionaries of the word, and his residence in
Fifty-fourth street is frequently the scene of a
Slithering of these workers among the heathen.
[r. Rockefeller ie now devoting considerable
attentiun to home missionary work, a field
whioh, ne Is convinced, presents splendid op
portunllies for Christian endeavor
Naturi Invariably doe* two things when she
tries to grow a tree; she protects the bark from
hottest sunshine and the roots from severe
changes of temperature, says the St. Louis
Globe- Demicat. Both these points are almost
invariably overlooked by man Observe a ma
ple or elm or bircb as it shoots up from the
ground: its sides are clothed ad the way with
small twigs, unless removed by knife or brows
ing. Any tree, s arting in an open lot, is thus
protected from the sun. Otherwise the extreme
heat will rupture cells and the bark will dry or
split. As far as possible there must be equal
development of ceils on all sides of the tree
But care of the root is even more important.
The feeding of a tree is at uhequ&l depths, but
most of it is near the surface. If the sun be al
lowed to strike directly on tbe soil, tbe liner
rootlets that do the foraging are destroyed, and
extreme droughts wll. affect the roots for a loot
Ii depth. What is worse, the extreme changes
of temperature also affect the tree and suck its
life away. In some cases such conditions are
produced as encourage the development of
fungi, or other enemies |to plant life. Nature
guards against this by laying down each autumn
a layer of leaves to enrich her forests or soli
tary pets.
At sc.nsst in the forests of Guiana, says
Longman's Magazine, the bats also flit from
tbeir hiding places, some taking the place of the
parrots and fl. eking round t .e fruit trees, while
the horrid vampires wauder far and near in
