Over in South Carolina there is no such
thing as the granting of divorces. “Occa
sionally,” said a lawyer this morning,
I “when a couple over the river find that
1 they are incompatible in temperament,
j and discover to their sorrow that Carolina
hasn’t got a divorce law on the statute
sion and let that official rent a house
«uitable to his salary, said:
“This is a novel suggestion. Nearly
every State in the Union has a Govern
or's mansion. Alabama is one of the few
states without such property, and it is
probable that a hill providing for an ex
ecutive mansion will he passed at the
next session of the Legislature in that
State.
“But in spite of the general custom
there is much practical sense in what ex-
Gov. Smith says. It might seem undig
nified in a Governor to he tramping
around the capital looking for a cheap
house to rent, hut on the other bandit
makes a State rediculoas to put a $.'>000
Governor in a $100,000 home. Any
sensible man who owned such premises
anil had an income of only $30(K) would
Bell the house and find a home in keep
ing with his means. It may be said
that a cheap house would not comport
with the dignity of the Governor. It is
the State’s business to protect the dignity
of the office by attaching a decent salary
to it. We have no right to expect the
G »vcr .or to live beyond his means or to
eke out from his private purse the nig-
gtn^y appropriation allowed for the
support of himself and his dignity.”
We believe that the people of Georgia
are wili ng to pay thei Governor a de
cent salary; and we hope the Legislature
wi 11 take the matter up as soon as it
meet* and remove from our State the
reproach of requiring our Chief Magis
trate, as the Telegraph aptly states it,
"to live beyond his means or to eke out
from his private purse the niggarly
appropriation allowed for the support of
himself and his dignity.”
If members of the Legislature wish to
ascertain the state ol public opinion on
this question let them ask the first ten
men they meet what they think of the
following statement from the interview
With Governor .Smith to which we re
ferred above:
“i'tie salary paid the Governor is a
disgrace to the people of Georgia. Un
less a man is wealthy, he w ill impoverish
hiaiself and family by holding the office.
The salary ought to be competent to
iuuuce the very best men to seek the
office. This is the policy of true econ
omy."
' Kentucky Kepuhlk-au*.
According to the Louisville Courier-
Journal: “Monroe County ie yet without
a railroad or telegraph line.” A great
many other counties in Kentucky are in
the same condition. Their comparative
unenlightenment is emphasized by.the
heavy Democratic vote that is cast in
that State.—Chicago Inter-Oeeau. Mon
roe county, in the State of Kentucky,
gave 541 votes for Cleveland and 793
votes for Blaine. Strike an unenlight
ened county in Kentucky and one runs
squarely against a Republican county.
Tue county ol Rowan, which was iu a
complete state of insubordination before
and after the death of its chief assassin,
is also a Republican county, having
YMed for Biame in ISM. The vote of the
meanest white people coupled with the
negroes makes up the Republican
strength iu the State of Kentucky.
A careful reading of the Expoeition
notes which will be found elsewhere in
this issue, will give an idea of the im-
mense amount of work that is being done book, thev come over here and take up
in preparing for the great show. The their residence for the sole purpose of be-

Twenty Nice Little “Private Affair*”

ably it is not complete, but it will do. For

Still Flocking to Columbus.
The Griffin New# is trying to convince
itself that Griffiu is encroaching upon
the territory ol Columbus along the line
o: the Georgia Midland railroad. The
News says that last year, owing to the
novelty of the thing, the people from
n'»ar Griffin flocked to Columbus and the
cjtton came this way. The News is
right about this. A great many people
from near G.iffin did come to Columbus
last year and were so well
pleased with the city and her markets
that they came again this year and
brought t.ieir neighbor# with them. Our

It is not likely that a single one of these
combinations would ever have come into
being hsd it not been for the fostering care
of a tariff. That operates so as to shut out
all competition from abroad, and then the
gentlemen get together and kill off compe
tition at home. So it is that they get con
trol of our home market, which, under the
ckcuinstances, is certainly the “best mar
ket in the world” for them. Wouldn’t it
be advisable to try just a little healthy for
eign competition?
Card* In a Sam Jouph Meeting.
A correspondent of the Augusta News is
responsible for the following story: A
very amusing incident happened at the
recent Sam Jones tabernacle meeting at
Cartersville. One of the most devout min
isters of North Georgia, who resides in a
town not a thousand miigp from Carters
ville, left home to spend a day or two at
these meetings. The^udden cool weather
that came about during the meetings
ccused overcoats to become a great requi
site.
The hero of this amusing incident did
not have his overcoat along, but the family
whom he was stopping with kindly ten
dered him the use of one which answered
every purpose until the stand was reached,
and after securing a seat up nearthe pulpit
the minister proceeded to take off his over
coat, and while doin'? so a deck of cards
fell from a side pocket as he was folding
the coat to hang on the back of his seat.
To see this devout minister, who for
many years has been engaged in making
such a crusade against cards, reaching
after a ter. spot h« re and a jack of
spades there, and hiding them away as
fast as be could get them back into bis
pocket certainly created a ripple among
those stated near him. A confiding
friend of the minister heard him say
that in all his life he was never placed
in such an embarrassing position, and
in future he will certainly examine the
pockets of all overcoats he borrows be
fore entering church.
Senator Coke on Mill*
At the enthusiastic reuomination of Con
gressman Mills at Waco, Texas, the follow-
; ing telegram from Senator Coke was read:
"Greeting, with my best wishts to the
Democratic clans to gather at Waco on the
first of October. I beg to say that the
* hignest intertsts of the National Demo-
! eratie party demand the nomination and
re-election of Roger Q. Mills, and that no
greater injury cau befall the party or the
tax-ridden people than Mills’ defeat; or a
serious diminution of his accustomed mu-
jority. An enthus astic indorsement and
re-election of Mills is due alike to himself
for eminent services to the people of Texas
aud to the National Democratic party,
| whose accredited exponent he is.”
"Whose accredited exponent he is.”
That is well to note.
The Pensiou Holts of the Future.
Over 800 men who served in the war of
1S12 are on the pension roll. That war
ended seventy-three years ago. and there
were about 50,000 men who were recog- !
nized as having had a pensionable part m , coif petition with the laoititude of low test, short
|it. Taking these figures as a basis, a Bus
man calculates that if the
Two young men from Mississippi arrived
| in Greensboro on last Monday evening to
attend^the Southern University. They had
j been bn the road seven days, and had
! walked 190 miles to get there. At the time
they started from home all trains had been
discontinued on account of the quarantines,
but they were determined, so they footed
it.
Frank Irion is still in jail. No application
has yet been made for bail in his case, and
it is not probable that one will be made at
least for the present. Yesterday a rocking
chair and other furniture for his cell was
sent to the jail by friends, and his meals
are sent to him regularly by friends. With
the dinner which came yesterday were a
number of fine cigars. Irion is certainly
not fonrotten by his friends in bis misfor
tune. The old saying “Kick a man when
he’s down does not seem to have an ap-
nlication in the case of Frank M. Irion.—
Birmingham Age.
A Troy letter gives the following sum
mary of the enterprises in that city: Our
people have invested $90,000 in a guano
factory and oil mill. Some of the machin
ery is in place and running on time. The
whole will be finished and in operation in
a few days. A cotton factory will be run
ning here in less than one year. A large
barrel and bucket factory and other
smaller enterprises are now being estab
lished. So you see that the game little
city of Troy is not content to trudge be
hind. I must not ueglect to notice that
the city fathers have contracted for the
erecting of a splendid system of water
works, and a building and loan association
is doing business. Of course these things
mean something, and yet Troy is not on a
boom,
A Wife Who Would Have Her Way.
Jobn Beck asked Justice Kenna fora
w'arrant for his wife’s arrest.
We have been married thirty four years,
he said, “and have had fourteen chil
dren. I was formerly boss carpenter,
and my profits at times figured up $75 per
week. I gave every cent to my wite, and
there’s where the trouble is. A few days
ago she told me she was going to stare in
the fish and oyster business at 45 Throop
avenue. I advised her not to, but she was
self-willed and carried out her plan yester
day. I refused to go there with her, so she
engaged two truckmen, took all the furni
ture out of the house in Humboldt street,
and didn’t leave me a stitch of clothing.
I want her arrested for stealing.” He
was advised that nothing could be done.
