A WORD ABOUT THE CONSTITU¬
TION.
Under the heading “A word abont
Mr. Atkineon,“ the Atlanta Consti¬
tution proceeded yesterday to give a
tno-column tirade. It amounted in
substance and effect to a woman’s
few words, and wae as weak in state¬
ment and logic us if written by one,
without the persuasive influence and
intuitive perception of right tbnt are
always the concomitants of tiue wo*
manhood. It was simply tbe volu¬
ble and vituperative whine of a fish •
woman disappointed in a customer.
It pretends to deal with Mr. Atkin-
eon’s Mooticello speech, and ap¬
proaches tbe subject in a character¬
istic manner with a straigbtont
misstatement at the start by saying
that Mrl Atkinson said hehan"whip
ped Geo. Evans”—-the quotation
marks are the Constitution's-—and
now proposes “to wipe up tbe Alien -
ta Constitution." What he said, in
a speech so true and so cutting that
the Constitution, with even twice the
manhood which it has lacked in this
whole fight, dare not copy, was this;
“I am not runniog against Evans—
he is not in the race. Tbe race is be¬
tween me and the Atlanta Constitu¬
tion; and so help me God, I am going
to whip it!”
The issue is well defined here and it
is the true one, as Mr. Atkinson
shows in tbe next sentence: “A vote
for Evans is a vote to endorse the
Third party doctrines and Third
partjr teachings of the Atlanta Con¬
stitution.” There is not the slight¬
est doubt that Gen. Evans is under
tbe complete domination of the
Atlaflta Constitution, and what that
domination means is conclusively
shown by his Jonesboro speech in
which he says that “we must wait
for a congress and an administration
that will carry out tbe pledgee made
to the people.” If this means any¬
thing it means a square out repudia¬
tion of the Democratic congress and
the Democratic administration and
can mean nothing bnt Third party-
ism or Republicanism. We have
been told that General Evans has
denied privately having made uDy
such statement, but he was so
. reported by a Constitution reporter
especially sent down to Jonesboro
and dares not make a public denial.
In denouncing the course of tbe
Constitution Mr. Atkinson has done
nothing more than bis doty to bis
party, and this he can always be de¬
pended upon to do. He has nothing
further to tear from that paper for
so doing, for it can not treat him
worse than it has been Ueating him.
Ifi misrepresentation and abuse can
not be any greater than it has been,
and tbe effect will continue to be to
- - ’ Evans ranks
Democratic
that will pervert its news col-
ns to misrepresent tbe matter of
ocratic candidate’s speech so
ily that Us own ©orrespondent
opou a comctidn has fallen
«e low at it can fall—though
we confess a lack of conprebeDsion
to the depths to which a pnper
like the Constitution can descend.
Bnt let it do its worst—Mr. Atkin¬
son’s friends can well afford to ac¬
cept the challenge of anEvan Howell,
so boostingly made, on to which of
tbe two shall prove tbe leader of tbe
Democratic party in Georgia.
The troth is that tbe Atlanta Con¬
stitution has already done its worst
toward Mr. Atkinson and the Demo¬
cratic party, and its two colnmu
protest against bis plea for party
nnity and bis scathing phillipic
against the leading party disorgan¬
ise?, simply shows that be has cot to
tie core in such a manner that it
cannot avoid showing ita pain to
the public It roars more loudly than
before, bnt ita dyiag cla wings of tbe
air are more pitiful than potent.
How About Primaries.
Athens Emmmw. - ’
Tbe boast was made a tew weeks
since by the Evans organs that
wherever primaries were held tbe
Evans forces prevailed and through
the instrumentality of maas-meet-
iogs alone could Atkineon win.
Thirty-three coontie*haveacted thus
far, Atkinson carrying twenty-one
and Evans twelve. Of Atkinson’s
twenty-one counties, twelve had j»ri-
maries and nine bad mass-meetings.
Of Evans’ twelve conn ties, eight bad
primaries and four onass-meetioge.
Tbe twelve Atkineou couutigs acting
by primar'
votes a
ties mass meeting gave
him twenty votes. Tbe eight Evafls
counties acting by primaries gave
him twenty-four votes, and the four
Evans counties acting by mass¬
meeting gave him fourteen votes.
In other words Atkineon bae carried
four more counties voting by prima¬
ry than baa Gen. Evans and the
twelve Atkinson counties acting by
primary gave him thirty-eight votes
or the same number as Evans’ total
vote. Let tbe primaries continue to
be held. ^

It Won’t Work.
Columbus Ledger.
The following appeared in yoster-
dny’a issue oi tbe Savannah Morn¬
ing News:
“If Gen. Gordon is coming to Geor¬
gia to assist bis friend, Gen. Evans
in his campaign for the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination, as report¬
ed, be hasn’t got much timetoepare.
The sooner he gets to work the bet¬
ter it will be for Gen. Evans, who, it
is evident from the counties that
have already spoken, it isn’t going predicted to
have a walkover, as was
when he entered tbe contest. Gen.
Gordou can do him a world of good.
He knows bow to arouse tbe voters
and get them to take part in tbe
primaries.”
It will be another bad piece of cam¬
paign work if Gen. Gordon comes
back to Georgia to do any more
work for Gen. Evans.
There was a time when Gen. Gor¬
don, as a candidate before the peo¬
ple, could sway them almost like
magic.
But that time has passed. Gen.
Gordon is now tbe paid official of
Georgia in the Uuited States senate
and he is undei every obligation to
discharge the dories, which he owes
to the State in that capacity.
If Gen. Gordou comes to Georgia
to speak in behalf of Gen. Evans, it
will make votes for Mr. Atkinson.
As the News suggests, Gen. Evans
is sorely in need of heip. We believe
tlmt no help, from any one, can se¬
cure the nomination for-Gen. Evans,
and Gen. Gordon is certainly not the
man 1© try it.

We also learn that R. C. Johnson,
of Williamson, will be a candidate
for sheriff of Pike.
R. W. Hale, of Jolly, says he Pike will
not be a candidate for sheriff of
county. He has decided to let that
business alone and work for W. Y
Atkinson.
Howard Williams, of Williamson,
a strong Atkinson oihb. thinks that
Gen. Evans just as well retire from
the race and wait for a more conven¬
ient season, for there is no chance
for him this time. But I think Gen.
Evans is running a good race, be
causa Atkineon has got so far ahead
that Gen. Evans can take his time,
there being no hopes for him.

Honorable Test In Whteh Colonel

A correspondent of the Macon Tele¬

F. B. Mnpp. There not a more
charming household in the State
than that of the Mapps. Mr.
and Mrs. Mapp are both enthusias¬
tic for Geo Evans, Boarding with
them are several lady teachers of «he
Girls Industrial school, who are for
Atkinsoo. Both claim tbe hopors of
their respective candidate. Every
day they discussed tbe campaign.
They were too refined and eleguut to
bet on tbe issue of tbe contest as the
vulgar do, so Mrs. Mapp, practical her¬
in the affairs of life, bethought
self of a very ingenious method of
testing the merits and abilities of t be
candidates. She bad a couple of bens
going “sitting” at tbe same time.
One was older and more matronly,
and to her was given the name of
Gen. Evans, the other younger and
mure ambitious, was named 'lot. At

candidates were put on their merits.
In her heart Mrs. Mapp wished bet¬
ter luck to tbe general, but she did
not put vaseline on Col. Atkinson, as
an Atlanta orator would have done,
so as to prevent her eggsfrom batch¬
ing, but she gave both a fair trial
and eyen chance, trusting to tbe
older hen, her favorite, to act well
her part and decide the contest on
the Evans side. The general had tbe
prayers and sympathy of Mrs. Mapp.
Further than that she did not go-
The agreement was that tbe house¬
hold would abide the decision of the
bens.
Gen. Evans sat for two weeks. A 1
provoking rooster, the hero of tbe

for Gen. Evans, undertook to inter-
lere and offer outside advice us to

The plucky little colonel, fighting

blandishment of a third party.. She
was benton accomplishing something
for herself and for her mistress. The
result was the colonel came off her

beautiful btood of fifteen biddies.
The laugh was on Mrs. Mapp. The

8AMP80N A VALUABLE WITNESS.
Lawyer Wallace and HI* Client# Have
Hade a Strong Case Against the Car-
negie Company—The Monterey’s Armor
Plata Will Be Taken Off and Tested —Khe
Was Built In a Hurry.
Washington, -May 30.—If there have
been doubts in the minds of the house
armor plate investigating committee
that the official disclosures Regarding
the charges of ex-Bnrgess McLuckie and
his associates, would prove as important
as the findings of the first investigation
they have been completely dispelled.
Captain Sampson, tbe chief of the bu¬
reau of ordnance, occupied the stand
for more than two hours, and, although
in general terms he spoke of the last in¬
vestigation as “covering much the same
ground as had already been explored,”
under the skillful cross examination of
Chairman Cnmmings, he disclosed the
fact that the evidence of the workmen,
Koontz and Buck, given before the na¬
val board, proved conclusively that the
physical test upon which the govern¬
ment has relied for all its knowledge of
the character of the Carnegie armor
plates now on the ships has been a farce
from the beginning of the contracts np
to January last, and probably till April.
The far reaching importance of these
disclosures cannot be overestimated.
The government depends upon the phy¬
sical test made of each plate for its
knowledge of the group from which the
poorest plate is subsequently chosen for
ballistic test. It has been ballistic proved have that
the plates chosen for test
been re-treated, and the evidence of
Koontz and Buck shows that the re¬
cords of the physical tests which deter-
nfine which plate is of the lowest grade
have been falsified as a common prac-
% the Carnegie workmen, acting
trader hntructions from their immedi¬
ate fortfcjfeifPQ superiors. reliable The government, whatever there-
data $9HS|j£|gBa- as
'of cal qualities of the ot plate uian-
any armor
d by the Carnegie company.
__j fact was not shown until Attorney
Wallace’s clients had given their testi¬
mony, and the great importance of their
evidence is at once apparent.
The ease with which the government
was defrauded by the manipulation determine of
the testing machines used to
the tensile strength, elasticity and elon¬
gation of the specimens taken from ar¬
mor plates waa brought out by Chair¬
man Cummings. After having de¬
veloped the details of the method of
inspecting the work of the testing ma¬
chines, Mr. Cummings asked:
“Then it is a fact that the govern¬
ment has relied exclusively upon a
Carnegie testing machine manipulated
by Carnegie workmen for the accuracy
of these tests’’’
•Yes, sir,” reluctantly replied Cap¬
tain Sampson.
‘The Monterey’s armor.” said Cap¬
tain Sampson, “was made in a great
hurry at a time when the department
was apprehensive regarding onr rela¬
tions with Chili. It was not as good as
the armor now being turned ont, and
there are numerous plates on the Mon¬
terey that probably would not be ac¬
cepted today. The flaws in the plates
are probably due to ‘piping’ rather than
blow holes.”
The members of the committee were
much impressed with this declaration,
and it is a foregone conclusion that some
of the Monterey’s plates will be taken off
and submitted to ballistic test.
Though inclined to belittle the testi¬
mony given by the workman Brown re¬
lating to the acceptance by government
inspectors of inferior bolts and appurta*
nances, Captain Sampson's statement!
indicate clearly that he will prove a val¬
uable witness before the congressional
committee.
A GRAVE SIGNAL.
Persons Buried in a Cataleptic State May
Be Saved from Suffocation.
Pittsburg, May 30.—Hubert Devan,
a French Canadian, has patented an in¬
vention which he calls a grave signal,
and he is now in Pittsbnrg to get it
manufactured. The device consists of
a piece of ordinary gas pipe, six feet
long, with a glass globe about the size
of an incandescent lamp on one end.
The pipe is arranged to pass through a
brass plate at the head of the coffin,
leaving the lower end within a fraction
of an inch of the forehead of the corpse.
Through the center of the pipe runs a
plain, smooth stick, one end of which
rests on the forehead of the body in the
coffin, the other end is in a glass globe
with a red cloth attached; should the
person come to life in the coffin and stir,
the stick will be forced through.the pipe
and the red cloth—the signal—will be
displayed. small At (lie samo time a the number
of apertures will open at base
of the globe and fresh air will be forced
down the pipe into the nostrils.
The inventor claims that in catalepsy
a person may be apparently dead for a
period of eight days, bnt never for a
longer time, and during that period the
grave could be watched.
