The merging of the National A1 i

News for the past live yeart', i-i now
f eopne*'tel with the Dully Budget, of
Idocun
A petition from hoiiic of the
.churches to exempt their pm Nonages
from taxation lias been acted upon
adversely by the city council of At
lanta.
Mr. Justice Bleckley says that
there is no tmth in the rumor which
has been in circulation for several
days to the effect that ho will resign
fY.im the supreme bi tick.
Judge Speer, of the United States
Court in Macon has decided that the
late purchase by the Central of the
Savannah, Dublin and Western road
is not valid.
Representative W. W. Hoojts, of
Lee, has introduced a bill in the Leg
islature to exempt all undertakers
from jury duty. It shou and, and
doubtless will, pass.
The Covington Enterprise says
that in all probability Hon. L. F.
Livingston, of Newton county, will
be the i cxt Governor of Georgia.
Well we'll wait and see.—Aug. News.
Hon. R. H. Jackson, president of
the Farmers’ Alliance is a self made
juian, so to speak. All the education
Jie ever got was after he was grown
and married. He is a Baptist minis
ter, and was a state Senator two
years ago.
Some of the "personal liberty” peo
ple in New Yotjt are in favor of
opening the barrooms on Sunday,
because in that way, they say, the
"side doors” would be closed. That
argument amounts to about this : the
.front doors of residences should he
left opeu of nights, because other
jvise burglars might step in at a back
window.—Savannah News.
Down Houtli there is good deal of
.opposition to Col. Ingersoft'it scheme
,to fill the Mississippi with whisky.
■The great river passes so many Nor
thern communities before it reaches
the South that tlie Southern bed
would be dry most of the jear. No
Northern scheme somehow, can be
shaped so as to be fair to the South
ern people.
In Newton county the question on
jDec. Bth has narrowed itself down
to bar rooms or no bar rooms.” If
the county goes “dry” honest men
can purchase pure spirits by the
quart for medical and other uecessa
fry purposes, as a bill is now before
the legislature to that effect. If it
.goes “wet” the bill will be withdrawn
and bar rooms will prevail.
The Governors and Legislators of
.Georgia and South Carolina wit
jneet at the Augusta Exposition to
.day, aiul enquire of each other,
“what it was that the Governor ot
South Carolina said to the Governor
of North Carolina” on that cold, IVos
f,y morning, in the good old days of
yore. May all the boys have a fine
time.
We learn from the Talbotton New
Era that the Mt. Zion Fanners’ Al
liance of Talbot county in a recent
meeting, passed the following resolu
Jbion : “Resolved, That it be, and is
hereby highly recommended that the
members of the Alliance plant a good
.crop of wheat, oats, barley, rye and
Such crops this fall, as thus demon
titrate the fact, that W’e desire and
intend to live at home.”
Messrs. Jordan <fc Smith, cotton
factors of Augusta, Ga., are making
many friends by the wise and prudent
manner in which they have handled
and sold cotton for met chants, plan
ters aiul others this season. If you
desire to deal with safe factors, per
fectly reliable, make arrangements
jcßh them to handle vour cotton, —
W* are pleased to know that this en
terprising firm is getting a good deal
of cotton from this section, and all
are pleased with the way the staple
is being handled by them.
A farmer had a son who showed
no special aptitude for business, and
he was puzeled wjiut to do with him.
Ife concluded to try an experiment,
so he locked the boy in a room in
which there was only a Bible, 411 ap
ple and a dollar. A few minutes la
ter he stole quietly to the room. He
fciade up b's mind that if lie found
the boy eating the apple he would
#iake a good fanner ; if he were read
ing the Bible he should be trained
for the puipit, and if he had taken
£he money his success as a broker,
toe father thought, was assured.—
Upon entering the room lie found
the boy sitting upon the Bible, eating
tne apple, with tlie dollar in his
pocket. The boy Ijepame an able
politician, aiiij may be a candidate
f.r Governor of Georgia in 1890.
Jl'WriF. STEWARTS CARD.
F.unroii Griffin-Sun :—The follow
,ug article unsigned appeared iu the
Constitution of Friday:
‘‘A friend of Emmett Womack, the
popular solicitor-general of the Flint
circuit, pointing to the following nr
tide, which appeared in Thursday’s
Constitution said :
"I would like to know where your
rap irler got that piece of informs
*ion He cei tninly did not get it
from Mr. Womack."
The following is the article infer
red to:
Colonel J. I>. Stewart, member of
congress from this district, spent n
few days in the city pending the re
election of his friend Emmett Mom*
ick as solicitor genera 1 . After this
had been accomplished he returned
home, highly pleased with the result.
The artieje created some amuse*
ment among Hr. Womack’s fiiends,
and it seems a*- if the laugh is on
(longressmnn Stewart. Ihe story of
, his connection with this lace is told
as follows:
Congressman-Stewart came up to
Atlanta from Griffin as a friend of
' Mr. Womack’s with the .intention of
doing what he could to have him re
| elected by the legislative. He was
I the judge of the Flint circuit when
Mr. Womack was solicitor general,
and .there has always existed a warm
friendship between the two. When
! Mr. St*.wait arrived in the city be
I found that a tremenduous pressure
was being brought to bear by Rock
dale county in favor of Mr. George
\V. Gleaton, who aspired to Mr.
Wotuack’s pusition. Mr. Glcaton’s
suppoiters from Rockdale county
were particularly zealous in his be
half, and approaching Congressman
Stewait they notified him that their
: county was in his (Stewart’s) con
gressional district, and that it would
accordingly appreciate any favors
which Mr. Stewart might extend to
!Mr Gleatou. Just how this affected
Mr. Stewai t is not known, but it ap
pears that Mr. Stewart at once lost
his enthusiasm in Mr. Womack’s race,
! and as a fiieud of Mr. Womack’s said
[ yesterday :
“The distinguished congressman
! satisfied the Rockdale delegation
I that Mr, Glcaton need fear no trou
! hie fioin liinj. It certainly appears
i that Mr. Womack did not receive the
! benefit of Mr. Stewart’s influence,
; and it is reported that the weH-knowu
1 solicitor of the Flint circuit does not
| cherish a loving memory of C’ongress
| man Stewart’s visit to the city.”
j I beg leave to say in reference to
| the above article that it is not true
I “that I spent a few days in the city
i pending the re-ejection of Mr. Worn
j ack.” For the fact is that on Wed
| nesdav, the first day of the session,
II was taken sick at Griffin, took my
bed on Thursday and from that day
until Sunday morning was under the
care of Dr. Drewry of Griffin, and
win n I get up Sunday during the
day it was against his protest. I
went to At lanta on Sunday night and
was also there a part of the day Mon
day pending Mr. Womack’s election.
Neither Sunday night or on Mon
day “did any delegation from Rock
dale county or any of the supporters
of Mr. Gleaton approach me or noti
fy me that their county was in his
(Stewart’s) congressional district and
that they would accordingly appreci
J ate any favors which Mr. Stewart
might exteud to Mr. Gieaton.” No
such meeting or conference or con
sultation ever took place and the
i whole scene depicted is a pure fab-
J 1 icalion.
It is a well known fact that in the
district where we live that for per
sonal reasons I had a special friend
ship for Mr. Womack, and hold both
him and Mr. Gleaton iu high esteem
as gentlemen of character and inlel
ligence.
I make the above stalment of facts
as absolutely true aud for the pur
pose of vindicating myself from the
false charges aud insinuations con
tained in the article referred to.
