A Blight Tons* Ufa Qots out--'The Bad sveat occurs Last Bleat In Blrmlnanam -.Tha Deep Begnt- Bibxingiiah, Nov. 20.—[SpeciaL]Wales Wynton died tonight at seven o’clock of consumption of the bowels. He had been sick but eleven day*. Th* news was received with deep regret through out this city, and will b* heard with sor row in Aihena, his eld home. Since his illness his mother has been with him here and h* has had close nursing and skillful medical attention. His condition became alarming on Thurs day, but Friday evening he grew better and although very weak, his friends hoped for some improvement. It never came. His constitution was too weak to rally. His nervous system was exhaust ed. His vitality was gone, and at noon today his sister in Athens was tele graphed that her mother had no hopes of his recovery. He sank rapidly this af ternoon and died at seven o’clock this evening. At the time of his death he was city editor of the Evening Chronicle. He was a tireless worker and s splendid news gatherer. Where he ever erred was in his zeal to make his news col umns full and attractive. No boy ever worked harder, and no heart ever beat DR. LANE ON DR-WOODROW- The Recent Trial Whisk Hr. Lass Presided Over In Spar ta-Tke Ques tion •( Evolution as Discussed In the Synod- Dr C. W. Lane, who returned last week from the Presbyterian Synod, re cently held in Sparta, was called upon by the Banner-Watchman and asked about the session of that body, over which he was called upon to preside. The Synod is composed of representatives from ev ery Presbyterian Church in Georgia, and is composed of something like seventy- five members. “Tell ns about the Woodrow trial, Mr. Moderator.' “1 have been been asked about that a great deal, and there is a wonder ex pressed by people outside of the Church that the question has so long continued unsettled. the Woodrow matter is simply taking itoway through the series of appellate courts. The question caine up ii. the Augusta Presbytery last Au gust, and the Synod was simply review ing the the case. This Ion? continued course is only an evidence of the jealous care of the church to preserv.- personal rights.” ‘•The trial of Dr. Woodrow, in Sparta, _ _ had reference to two matters. First his Th« course of the committee has won 11 elutions to the Columbia Theological for it the spproval of the public. They seem to mean business, and have gone systematically to work. Mr. McLendon's statement tfiat the committee proposed to have a full, fair, open and unrestricted invest gation, un hampered by tnchnicalities, and not had- icapped by the strict rules of evidence, meets with unqualified commendation, The public do not wish to havsan in- I uisitor.al farce enacted in the State iouse, and the committee seem to be of the same mind. The investigation thus far has disclos ed that Mr. James P. Harrison, who was an officer and large stockholder in the Perseverance Marble Company, war very active in an effort to change the material for the building of the new capital from oolitic limestone to Georgia marble. That he expended a considerable (perhaps $3,000 or more) in the effort, and that he ployed Gen. Phillips as attorney to assist in urging the matter. That Gen. Phillips said he needed assistance and would see Judge Fain, and that subse quently Judge Fain was in Atlanta put ting up at the same hotel with Gen. Phil lips; that Col. Rankin, Mr. Harrison and Mr. Phillips were often together in Judge Fain’s room, and on one occasion, the 20th of December these gentlemen met in this room, and Gen. Phillips was hand ed a roll of money by Mr. Harrison. Mr. Bisaner, the witness, though pres ent in the room, did not see the money divided with Judge Fain and Col. Ran kin by Gen. Phillips, as he didn’t think it was any of his business and didn’t care to see it. He didn’t turn his back, but just didn’t see it. He supposed it was paid to them, however, as he had heard Gen. Phillips say that evening he was going to make Col. Rankin a present ol some money, and he afterwards heard him* say he had paid J udge Fain more than his services were worth. Tha drift of the cross examination by CoL N. J. Hammond, Mr. Garrison’s at torney, has been to show that Mr. Har rison, as a marble man, was naturally interested in the selection of Georgia marble, and did all in his power to have it selected; but all that he did was open and above board and perfectly legs 4and that no improper means were used to in fluence snybmly. The investigation is exciting much in terest. THE ELECTION FOE CONGRIISS. Attorney-General Clifford Anderson took the oath of office before Governor Gordon today. Gov. Gordon issues a proclamation to day based upon the consolidation elec tion rctu.ns furnished by the Secretary of State, declaring the ten members duly elected to represent Georgia in the fif tieth .congress. Tho total vote in the State is 27,577, and in several counties there were no votes cast. In the Sev enth the highest v tc was cast, Clements receiving, 5,<H3, Felli.n, 11537. The of ficial returns in the Kigi.tli district give Carlton, 2,322; Reese, 22; Daugherty, 34. BUSINESS IN THE TWl> HOUSES YESTERDAY. WILL IT BE ALEXANDER! Seminary, where he is a teache; and secondly, whether as a Presbyterian min ister, be should be allowed to continue to proclaim his peculiar views upon evo lution. The Augusta Presbytery had favored allowing l)r. Woodrow to do as he pleased, ’ he appeal came up to the Synod by way of complaint, and the ac tion of the Presbytery was annulled. The Synod decided against allowing Dr. Woodrow to contifiue to proclaim his views either as a professor or preacher.” ‘Did you make any deliverance about the doctrine of evolution, Doctor?” None whatever. Evolution was not on trial. Our decision was simply that no accredited minister or representative of the church had any right to teach what is not received as true by the Pres byterian Church. Any private member f the church, of course, can hold the belief if be choses to—but no accredit ed teacher or preacher may proclaim such doctrine.” “Did you vote against Dr. Woodrow?” “Yes; I voted to require him to re sign his place or to declare his chair va cant in the Seminary should he refuse.” “What will he do?” “If Dr. Woodrow is devoted to his opinions as to the origin, of man and wants to press it, he has the right to re sign his ministry and propagate his theo ry as a private member of tile church.” “How was the debate?” “It consumed a day and night, and was mainly a restatement of old points. It was remarkably fur, dispassionate and able.” “What is Dr. Woodrow’s status now as a minister?” “This must be determined by the ap peal to to the General Assembly to meet next May in St Louis.” “Doctor, how do you answer Dr. Woodrow’s argument that the Bible and the church standards do not say that man was made directly of dust of the ground?” “We answer that by asking what has the church believed her standards to have meant on that subject since the reforma tion, and what did Dr. Woodrow him. self believe for twenty years of his min- istry?” Dr. Lane went on to say that Dr. Woodrow was the only scientist he knew who held to the form of evolution that applied to Adam, but not to Eve, He held that Adam may have been evolved from a lower order of animal; but he ac cepts the Bible account that Eve was formed of a rib out of the side of man. Such a teaching agitated the church and tended to unsettle belief in the Bible.” “I am verry sorry,” said Dr. Lane, “ that Dr. Woodrow did not do as Dr. Toy did in the Baptist College in Louis ville. When his own teachings became a matter of comment, he wrote out his views in full and then penned his resig- natior, and asked his brethren to accept one or the other.” l)r. Lane went on to say that Dr. ers 0 Woodrow was a man of great abili- I ly . ad fine character; but he had gotton , wrui.g this time and had continued to go > wrong with all the earnestness of his ' Scotch blood. ThoCaroasaalt of Corruption u* Its Height—The BaaSal Black BlMU-Suckcra aa the Rampage. The Bannes-Watchman urged and begged that the democrats of Athens and CtaAe county take politics in their own hands and settle the question of candidates by primary election. AU classes and conditions of our people agreed to this, and an overwhelming ma jority were anxious for so great a move ment toward political reform; but some how the proposition was strangled so far as regarded municipal matter*, and this, of course, also ended* nomination for county officers. For awhile all was smooth sailing, and some whites were so sanguine as to ar gue that the colored voteT would this year cast his ballot for the best men, and without money and without price. Why, you had just as well expect the avenge suffrage-slinger to change his skin or the leopard his spots, as to hold election in Athens without the al mighty dollar being the arbiter. Within the past few dsys the black cesspool of corruption has been stirred to its very depths, and the political blood-suckers are now holding a regular war dance. Of all the disgraceful contests that our peo ple have known since the war, the pin nacle will be reached in the municipal contest in December and the county election next January. Money is being already distributed, and every vagabond street-loafer has at once become a nun of importance, and is smoking cigars sad drinking liquor at the expense of some poor candidate that he is bleeding t* the bottom of hid pock ets. Some of these negroes are boarding at a colored hotel, are driving fine teams, and jingling money in their hands. Al though webave a “dry” county, whisky flows like water, and every night meet ings are held, when it is distributed among the voters. And the candidates! If a single one of them comes out of the election not fleeced of has last dollar of ready-cash, he will accomplish a mira cle. Not content with being robbed of their money by these ebony politicians; the candidates are subjected to the most degrading and humiliating tortures. They are called on at all hours of the day and night—even pulled from their beds—to hold a conference with some drunken, ignorant negro, who will retail to them some of the most ridiculous slanders that are circulated, and winds up with demanding more money to smooth things over. Yonr pocket-book is the only thing that can close their lips or satisty their “scruples.” It cost an aldennanic candidate a round sum to settle the story that if elected he would close free schools for eighteen years. To brand political contests, as conducted in Athens and Clarke county, as shame ful and disgraceful, is but to use too mild a term. While in the majority, the white voters are completely ignored, and the negro becomes the principal factor. Every decent man is sick and disgusted with such campaigns, and hundreds will refuse to vote in a contest where such open-handed corruption and political degradation is practiced. Cannot the candidates yet get together and settle their differences without appealing to these blood-suckers” There is no honor in being elected to office by a lot of bought votes, cast by corrupt and venal men.

[August* Chronicle.] New Yorx, Nov. 19.—[Special.] Mrs. Hettie Green’s Central has certainly been bought by the Alexander party. I positively atato the price, but I believe it was sold for par rad thirty. I know that she offered it at that price last Saturday. Interest here in the mat ter is confined to a very narrow circle, bat the footing is intense among those concerned. I heard n strong man say yesterday that the Alexander party had money enough behind them to pay two hundred for Central if necessary to win the fight. Par and eighteen have been bid here today, but there is no atock of- ferine. The recent wild excitement in Rich mond Terminal stock baa been greater than ever today. It has advanced four teen dollars a share since yesterday morning. It is rumored to-night that tha Terminal syndicate brought to-ddjr a controlling interest in Richmond ud Danville at two hundred and thirty dol- shart. This deal from its incep- ti HORSE THIEVES AT WORK. Trouble In madison Over a Right of Five Animal* Stolen on Wednesday Night. From news just received from differ ent parts of tbe surrounding country, the horse thi>-ves sre working very dili gently and successfully. On Wednes day night Jones Strickland, living near More’s Grove church, had his horse, stolen and on the same night Wm.

A few of these lovers of horse flesh should be caught and strung up to the limb of tha nearest tree, and this would put * atop to this wholesale stealing. Call on thb Old Reliable P.
