This position I then believed to be cor- rect, and I ant prepared to sustain it with equal sincerity. Now, the Democratic party does not contine itself to this single itesue, nor will it? powers to serve the people cease with the solution of that issue. It stands for just taxation, for sup¬ pression of monopolies and trusts, for government according to the terms of the constitution, for the rights of the plain people of the land. With us Georgians it also stands for honesty and the capaci- ty in the management of our State and county affairs, for the defense of property, home and person.

I urge each Demo- crat to vote for Bryan and Sewall-, even though he in no wise partici¬ pated in the Chicago convention.” —Secretary Hoke Smith. There lias been some little criti¬ cism of Judge Kitnsey, it is under- certa * n actions over his appointment of revisors of the vot¬ ers’ list. Judge Kinisey made no mistake in his appointment of T.

Frank Hughes, Zeb Nix and Lum Heaton Charged. \\ ednesdav evening warrants were sworn out by the Furniture Company for Frank Hughes, Lum Heaton, the former night watch- man. and Zeb N.x for taking fur- n,hire from the factory. It. seems' that these men had lormed themselves into a club to turmture .. without . , r lot get . paying it, as several bureaus, bedsteads, „- a shstands. etc., were found in the houses of Zeb Nix and Fr.-.-k Hughes. Zeb Xi,\ is a voting man v * has worked at the factory, and knows all about the place, and it seems through the connivance of the nightwatchman, C. F. Ilea- ton, he and Frank Hughes, who has been working for Ed Harris at the Southern repair shops, would go to the factory after dark and get just what they wanted of unfin- died goods and take them to Hughes' house and put 1 them to- gether. The way CoL Jones cross-exam- ined the trio, it was plainly seen that each tried to make it seem that the other party gave the material to him. but Zeb Nix virtually ad- mitted his guilt and incriminated each of the other men Judge Cook bound each of the men over to the Superior Court in bonds of $150.00 each, Goods to the amount of about $501, found in the houses of Zeb Nix and Frank Hughes, were recovered.
