Wosuggest that the State Boatir of
Conrolatonce try and make-:.soc e
arrangement with the railroads to
receive goods from the platform of
the State dispensary when shipments
are less than car load lots, so .as to
curtail expense of drayage.

no shortage aceuits outstanding,

(Savannah Morning News.)
The Savannah, Thundorbolt and o
Isle of Hope railroad found early q
that it was reduced to the necessity o
of putting the fare between tho Dale
avenue camp and the city down to 5 ,
cents.
It did not take the conductors and a
motorien of the road long to find r
out that they could not collect 10 d
cents froi the soldiers for a farm one d
way, and they did not hesitato to ro
port the mattor promptly to the of.l
cial. of the read. Just before the
fares were reduced a party of sol- i
diers, about .15 in number, vent on* '
on one of thre cars to the camp.
When they arrived at the junction
and started for the camp from that
point an effort was miadoe to collect ci
another fare from them. This the tl
soldiers reinsed to pay, saying they ~
could not afford more thanr 5 cents g
for a ride to the camp.
The conductor and umortorman of
the car had their ordoers, and1 they set a
to work attemp.ting to collect the ad- i
ditional 5 cents. [
"You wvill have to pay or get off,"
the conductor said. n
"WVe won't pay and we wvon't get st
off," said one of thre sroldiers' tl
"Thor I will niot run the car,'' put at
mn the ruoniormanr.
"All right, we've got a motorman
of our own," remarked oner of the L
soldiers as lhe took hold of the con
troleor and( started the car. T1hos ol. Ii
diers car,'ied theinselvyes out to the A
camp, told the cond(uctor and motor- ge
man good [light, and got off. g
T1he citizens of Savannah are now i
asking the question why they should h
pay anry more than 10 cents to ride f,
out to the camp and back. Many of C
them consider it an attempt on the y
part of the comp lanysto gouge. They
(10 not think it wvort.h any more to
ridle out to Dale avenue and1( back 'y
than to ride aro'und tire belt, uand a
they considoir it unjust that they
should be charged 15S cents for thre
roulnd trip. Savanrnahiansr pay more
probably for street car fares for thre t
dlistanico traveled and get loss no
comnmodation than is paid anywhere 5
else in tis country.

The following extracts from the
'ayottevillo, N. C., Observer will
biow the impression made by our
Inior sonator when he spoke in that
ity last week:
Yesterday was a grelit day for
'ayettoville and the Capo Fear coun
,y. It was the occasion of the
peaking in behalf of the restoration
f white rule in North Carolina by
enator B. R. Tillman, the liberator
f South Carolina.
Instead of the beautiful October
eather which we had been having,
io weather changed on Thuriday
ight. It began to rain about 1 n.
1., Friday morning oponed with i
own pour arnd bhero wore showers
tiring the most of the day.
The number has been variously
it-imated at from seven to ten thou
stid. Many of the multitudle who
ned the streets and filled the win
L)ws on route were unale to aIttendl
to speakinig.
The great outpouring of the pee
Io under snehi adverso circuilan
'M is suggestive. It should csii(
iose who pul~rsuo the business of
Aitics to stop and think. What is
to secret of the magic in Tillmans's
ime ? Simply that tihe great body
the plain people -those who con
ituto intlotnthIs of 0onr vot ers-bo
v in his honesity anid truthfull
,ls.
As ad1vertisedl, the Fspealking was
t,lth fair grounds. 'rhe judge's
and on the race track was 'ised for
to speakers' standl, andl the grand
and :mnd many iows of b)enchos coin
ituted t he aIuditoriumn.
'[hli procession started1 from the
afayetto htotel at a little before
velvo o'clock. TIhreo hundred
rsomnen in red shirts took the lead.

ho was about to conclude, but the
crowd insisted that ho go on. They
would have heard him as long as he
couldt speak. Ie has a very ro
markable manner. He is altogether
out of the common1. H is 1 ho1u1hts
como clear and logical; he has a
ringing voice and irnperious gesturo;
his sentences aro well constructed;
his illustrations striking and pictur.
esque and. bearing the flavor of
wholesome country life; his delivery
doliberato in the nmin, but running
into groat rapidity of uttorance at
thm Cinaxes.
Thetspeaker apologized for having
to say such plain things about his
hospitablo entertainers, but he wias
invited to como as an export to ding
nose the disonso of the North Caro
lin- pationt and his task would bo
useless if he failed to use the sur
goon's knife unflinchingly. But he
mufltitude aRsured him that aint was
precisely what they wanted hiin to
do, and they yellod with do
light at every ent into tho sor% or
machine politics. It. wias evidently
an au(ience of sound ininded
and sound hearted citizons, b:ont
on hearing ico from the lod
mgi political dloctor of our daiy
aind steotion. If there wore any p)re.i
ent whose toes were trod on, they
have discroorly3 kept quiet.
It is conceded on all handls thait,
the great South Carol inianns speech
produced a profound imi)pi essioni up jon
the Democrats anid Populists, and
that it catiised miiany of the latter
to return to the white maii's party.
It is a pity thait it could not lbe I
spoken im every p)rec~inct ini the State.i
If so, the issue wYouild not be ini
doubt for a moent longer.
Ti llmain's speech wans a ronmer. Jt
h1as awaked a p)irit which will echo
from one0 end of the country to the
other and1( r'climi miany straying
Populists.
Tlhio P'opmulit leaders of Cumbier
land( counaty are dlismayed over t.he
great speech of Tillmaun yesterdaly.
TIhiey know he toldl then truth and ad.
mit it. Some of them say it is too
late to return, hut it is never too
late to do an honesit thing. Comoc
back, friends.
WVhen Tillhnan put the screw o,
his mrouthi and winged thle b)lind side1
of his face, it was a study for the
godi--and( ll concterned.
