ONE IN AUGUSTA TOO
It seems that Dalton and Bruns
wick are not alone in having
scoundrels. The following is from
the Augusta Herald :
There is one miscreant abroad
in Augusta who is courting trou
ble. If the efforts which are be
ing made to catch him prove suc
cessful he will find that malicious
slanders, at once baseless and base,
cannot be circulated with impunity
and that when they are circulated
from the cowardly ambush of
anonymity, the offense becomes
doubly execrable.
The strong arm of the law will
be invoked and he will be placed
where his “disease for writing”
will be effectually cured.
The fact is that there must be
more than one of these craven
slanderers, unless he is * possessed
of a fund of energy worthy of a
better cause. Certainly the num
ber of his victims is large and, like
death, he has all seasons for his
own. •
The presence of this anonymous
libeller has not been generally
known, for naturally enough the
recipient of his insulting letters,
who are ladies, feel a delicacy in
discussing the matter. But it is
time the facts were made known
and that a chivalrous people may
unite in demanding that the ven-
emous social serpent be hunted
down and disciplined. It is an
outrage which innocent victims
have suffered in silence too long
already.
There is no manhood or gal
lantry in such a reptile to which a
manly appeal to desist can be
made. But there is no doubt an
instinct to take care of his own
safety which may respond to a
timely warning.
It is impossible to overestimate
the malignant influence of the
anonymous scribbler. He is “the
pestilence which walketh in dark
ness.” He carries in his shame
less grasp the power to blight the
purest womanhood and the noblest
manhood. He is without respect
for himself or others. His morbid
mind finds its highest pleasure in
dwelling on falsehood and cor
ruption, and when he strikes it is
with the ghoulish joy that his
identity is safely concealed.
This outrage must end. It.has
been going on, with more or less
frequency, for months, and the
circle of his victims is expanding.
The citizens of Augusta hold
womanhood in too high respect to
permit such malicious trifling, and
when they rise up in stern deter
mination to expose the offenders
it is safe to say that they will soon
succeed.
This is warning number one.
to adjust the contempt proceed
ings before us.”
At the conclusion of this brief
and pointed address the judge left
the bench,, laid aside his judicial
character and then and there in
the language of a local reporter,
“for five minutes one of the even-
est and sharpest fights ever seen
outside of a prize ring took place.
His honor won, but he lost his
» 1
shirt and several patches of skin
from his face. After the battle
court was promptly reopened, the
judge’s antagonist having been
sent home in a carriage.
There will, of course, be some
harsh criticism of Judge Bowling's
conduct. It violates the tradition
of the bench and may give of
fense to those who condemn all
innovations. But Judge Bowling
probably understands the ele
ments with which he has to deal
and knows how best to enforce
respect for his authority.
In many localities we have no
doubt that the Bowling method of
dealing with contempt of court is
just the thing.—Atlanta Journal.
The stamp act is now regarded
as the paying teller’s lament.
Uncle Sam, as a farmer, is har

THE BOWLING flETHOD.
Kansas City has a judge who is
able to take care of his court and
himself. His name is Robert M.
Bowling, and he has recently
gained national fame by the in
troduction and enforcement of a
new treatment for contempt of
court.
A litigant in Judge Bowling’s
court took exceptions to one of
his rulings and expressed his
opinion that the judge was a liar.
According to the old fashioned
plan, the proper thing for Judge
Bowling to do was to have the
offiender brought before the bar to
receive a rebuke and a fine for
contempt.
Judge Bowling did not consid
er this the right way to deal with
the culprit. He said: -
“While I am sitting upon this
bench there will be no one sent to
jail for contempt of this court.
Any man who deliberately places
himself in contempt of court here
has got to fight. We will now

We take it back. We had
thought the most contemptible

creature who can write an anony
mous letter upholding such a man.
The latter is not only on a par
with the former in the baseness of
his nature, but he is just a shade
more cowardly in that he keeps
his identity concealed. A creature
who is ashamed of his name, or
afraid to reveal his identity is too
low to merit attention.—Macon

Bears the
Signature of
Madrid, July 20.—The gov
ernment has received a dis
patch from Capt.-Gen. Blanco
in which he announces that
he had not authorized the
capitulation of Santiago de
Cuba and asserting that the
place was surrendered with
out his knowledge. As a re
sult Gen. Toral will be rigor
ously tried by courtmartial.
According to Spanish mili
tary law a commander can
surrender the troops which he
personally commands, but
cannot oblige other command
ers at distant points, even
though under his authority,
to follow suit. Consequently
it is held here that the capit
ulation only comprises about
7000. troops actually at San
tiago de Cuba.

The Judge Hit Him.
This morning while a train load
of Bryan’s Nebraska regiment was
standing at the station one of the
soldiers down on the ground re
marked to a companion that this
section was an awfully poor one.
The other replied: “Yes, it looks
so poor that it would hardly raise
enough to feed a hog ou.” Judge
Bogle was standing by fondling
the folds of his umbrella and lis
tening to the conversation and
said: “Yes, I guess that’s so ; but
it seems to me that about two
years ago we sent a train load of
corn to some starving Nebraskans,
and we have never yet asked alms
of any one.” The two soldiers,
feeling the force of Judge Bogle’s
remarks, pulled their hats down
oyer their eyes and clambered up
on their car.
