Hon A. President of

It seems that the gubernatorial
campaign is beginning to take

the Democratic nomination. As a
friend who hue watched with
the growth of the Democratic suggestion nominee, of voor
name at tbs
and who wishes to give you hie
hearty support, I would like to know
if you propose to muke the race. If
so, 1st your friends kpow it, in order
that they may lose no time in tbs
important work of organisation.
Yours very truly, W. E. Wooten.
MB. CLAY 8 REPLY.
Hou. W. E. Replying Wooten, Atlanta, Ga.
—Dear 8ir: to yours of
the 0th instant, asking whether or
not I will be a candidate for govern¬
or, wbicb is based on your assurance
that you ''wish to give me your
hearty support,’’ I beg to express
my deep appreciation of yoorcordlal
words, and to return my sincere
thanks for this generous manifesta¬
tion ot your friendship. 1 will not
be ft candidate for governor, ond in
making this, my first definite
announcement of this determine-
tioli, 1 deem it proper that I should public,
give my reasons to the
through you, for reaching this con¬
clusion.
For sometime my name has been
generally discussed by my friends
and by the press throughout the
State in connection witn the high
and ilietiugoisbed denied office of governor.
I have neither nor affirmed
my candidacy, though at no time
have I been a candidate, in the
popular acceptance ol tbe term, for
this honorable position. I do not
deny that 1 have appreciated most
highly the many generous things
that have been said about
me, and it would be in¬
sincere in me to say foreign that my aspira¬ hon¬
tions have been to such
orable promotion. and I confess There I are but
few men, am not one
ot them, who could say with candor
that infinite pleasure and just pride
would not attend the award of such
an honor at tbo hands of his fellow
men.
After having represented the peo
pie of my own county for six years
in the lower house ol tbe general
assembly and tbe people of my dis¬
trict for two years iu tbe 8tate aeu-
ate, I have been asked by many of
B >7 friends throughout tbe State,
and by many whom I do uot know
personally, to allow tbe use of my
name in connection with tbe govern¬
orship. I have assurances ol strong
support from every section of the
State, and I have every reason to
believe that, if a candidate, my
chances would not suffer, and that,
through the activity and zeal ol my
friends, I could make a record before
tbe State convention thut would not
be otherwise than creditable.
But there are considerations, both
personal and party, wbich induce me
to withhold the use ol my name in
this connection at this time. I have
been in active public life long enough
lor me to stop, at least lor a short
while, 8Dd get mv business matters
in such shape as will do justice by
myself and my family. This I can
do u« once by devoting my energy
to that end. I could not do so with
an active political campaign considerations, ahead
of me. Aa to party
it goes without saying that the
Democratic party is to have another
fight in the next election in this
State. The Democratic oppoeition is organized,
and the nomination,
while assuring election, does not
mean, as it did a few years ago, a
walk-over. In order that the party
may present a solid anduoitedfront, fro
there should be as little division and
dissection in party raoksaspossible.
Personal entanglements and indi¬
vidual differences may prove to be
unfortunate, resulting in the em¬
barrassment of friends, and in creat¬
ing antagonisms that might
endanger tbe success of the party.
I cannot afford to be a factor to
briuging about any such results for
personal gratification.
After careful consideration, I have
fully made up my mind not to be¬
come a candidate. It is in; iatentiun
whenjinv term as senator expires to
return to private life, sad I take
this method of so informing tbe
public. It is impossible to confer
with *H of my trieodsttirooghontthe

to assure me their support, before
making this announcement. Not
having the opportunity, therefore,
of seeing them to express my deep
sense of gratitude (or tbe true and
loyal support tendered me in tbe
event of my becoming a candidate,

New York, Dec. 9.—R. G. Dun &
Co.’s weekly review of trade says: Trade
of all kinds is waiting. There i« no
visible improvement, and, on the whole,
the indications are a little less satisfac¬
tory than they were a week ago. The
volume of business, measured by clear¬
ing house returns outside of New York,
shows a decrease ol only 12 per cent
compared with last year, which is en¬
couraging; but, as the statement covers
the payments for the month, it may not
correctly measure the volume of the
new transactions. The reports from
other cities show a hesitating trade al¬
most everywhere, with s decided dispo-
position to wait until congress has acted
cm the tariff question. Hence, the days
of uncertainty are likely to last until
some weeks.
Wheat has risen a shade, The western
receipts were only 8,577,881 business
against 6,694,180 tor the same week last
year, while the exports from Atlantic
ports were only 437,484 bushels against
1,821,400 tor the same week last year.
Tbe receipts of corn were unusually
large, amounting to 8,327,771 bushels
against 2,766,780 tor the same week last

PRIZES ON PATENTS.
TO GET TWENTY-FIVE tWN-
OREO DOLLARS FOR NOTHING.

BrmgThemtn Still
More,
Would you like to make twenty-five hun¬
dred dollars? If you would, reudcaiefuliy
shot follows and you may see a way todo it.
The Frees Claims Company devotes much
attention to patent*, it has handled thous¬
ands ol application* lor inventions, but it
would like to handle thousands more. There
is plenty of inventive talent at large in tnis
country, needing nothing bnt encourage¬
ment to produce practical result*. That en¬
couragement the Press Heims Company
propose to give.
NOT NO HARD A8 IT SEEMS.
A patent strikes most people idee as on that ap¬
pallingly formi isble thing. The is
an inventor must be a natural genius, like
Edison or Bell: that, he must devote years to
delving in complicated mechanical problems
and that he must, spend a fortune on delicate
experiments before he can get a new device to
a patentable degree piny o! perfection. Thisde-
jnsion lnoinn the fht, com i>nmrmnv *Mr«f tWiiHft to to dispel, iiiSD public It ile-

clear comprehension of ihe fact that it ie not
ik. tbe great, _ *.__._ complex, n law an,l and expensive uvnonnlva inventions inTfont inmi
that bring the besl returns to their authors,
but the little, simple, and cheap ones—the
things that seem so absurdly trivial that
the average citisen would feel somewhat
ashamed ol bringing them to the attention
of the Patent Office.
Edison says that the profits he has re¬
ceived from patents on oil his marvelous
inventions have not been sufficient to pay
tbe cost of his experiments But the bit man of

rubber cord to a child’s ball, so that it
would come back to the hand when thrown, The

nuity—tbe product oi the toil o! hundreds oi
busy brains through a hundred and fifty
years, but the whole brilliant result rests
upon the simple device of putting the eye of
the needle at the point instead of at the
other end.
THE LITTLE THINGS THE MOST
* VALUABLE.

selves as inventors, but almost everybody another,
has been struck, at one time or

A TEMPTING OFFER.
To induce people to keep track of the
bright ideas and Bee what there is in them
the Press Claims Company has resolved to
offer '
a pnxe.
To the person who submits to It the
simplest and most promising invention
from a commercial point of view, the
company will give tn twenty-five addition hun¬
dred dollars in cash, securing to re¬
funding the fees tor the pat¬
ent. lnvenllor
It will also advertise the
free of charge.
The offer is subject to the following condi¬
tions:
Every competitor must obtain a patent
for his invention throuau *he company. He
must first apply lor a preliminary search, tha
oost of which will be five dollars. Should
this search show his iuveotion -So be un¬

NO BLANKS IN THIS COMPETI¬
TION.
This is a competlon of rather an unusua
nature. It is common to offer prizes lor the
best story, or picture, or architectural plan,
all the competitors risking the loss of tlisir
labor and the successful one merely selling tha
his tor the amount oi the prize. Put
Press Claims Company’s offe- is somethiag
entirely different. Each pereon is merely helps
asked to belo himself, and the one woo
himself to the be»t advantage is to be re¬
warded for doing it. The prize is only a
stimulus to do something that would be well
worth doing without it. The architect
whose competitive plan for a club bouse on
a certain corner is not accepted has spent
his labor on something of very little use to
him. But the person who patent* a simple
aud useful device in tbe Press Claims Com¬
pany’s competition, need not worry if he
