beaten for State senator by a Hoke

According to the Savannah Press, a
Waycrotw man who has Just made the
rounds of the Eleventh congressional
district declares that Col. Estill will
carry every county In the district.
Judge Russell put all the counties In
the Savannah valley In hi* bag last
week. He even ventured to put a few

cians of Judge Eve’s particular game

Colonel Estill spoke in Mllledgeville

not It was popularized here any way

While the peach belt Is split in half

joices In the fact that the biggest and
best watermelons grow on Its side of
the church line. True; but the best

which is of a great deal more religious
Importance.
The Mllledgeville News, gives this
timely warning to other possible can
didates: “In all probability Col. J. E.
Pottle of this city will be a candidate
for congress from the Sixth district
two years hence. Our people have
faith In Joe and believe that he can
get anything he wants that the voters
have to dispose of.”
Harvie Jordan states that It will
take over 300,000 bales of cotton to re¬
place the manufactured cotton goods
that were totally destroyed by Are
during the San Francisco earthquake.
This will materially reduce the present
supply or cotton. A safe estimate of
the loss of cotton goods destroyed Is at
least fifty million, dollars. San Fran¬
cisco Is the great shipping point to
China and Japan. It la also the great
distributing point of the Rocky Moun¬

"Bertie’s Bor*”—Ceerteey la Hoaae.
By ARTHUR W. DUNN.
Washington, May 25.— f Special.] —
Congress la finding greet difficulty la
dealing with the subject of Immigra¬
tion and naturalisation. Both subjects
are pearly related because it ts immi¬
grants that have to be naturalized.
Restrictions upon, naturalization need
not affect Immigrants in the way of
keeping them out of the country, but It
it these Immigrant* that want to be
naturalised. It la in naturalizing and
making citizens of immigrants that
frauds are committed. But in dealing
with these questions congress finds it¬
self confronted with a number of prob¬
lems that are bard to solve. One of
the great difficulties Is that drastic leg¬
islation will give offense to the foreign
bom population, and most of these are
so numerous In many districts aa to
disturb members of congress who do
not have vote* to spare in the elec¬
tion*. If the legislation is not drastic
It wilt not be of any^ value, because it
will not reach the 4 conditions. The
question of dealing with the foreigners
will In time reach the stage of a real
issue in American politics.
8outh Dakota Political Rivalry.
When pairs were announced for both
of the South Dakota senators, two men
who are usually on hand nearly all the
time, some one remarked, “There must
lie something doing in South Dakota,
or Klttredge and Gamble both would
not be absent” Such was the case.
And it was a fact The political rivalry
between these two senators is such
that it is claimed that both cannot re¬
main in the senate. Their friends say
that if Gamble is successful this year
Klttredge will have to go When his
term expires. It is a fact that friends
of both men wouid like to have them
remain in the senate, where both are
popular senators.
Rsyner and Fulton.
On the last day of the debate on the
railroad rate bill Senator Rayner of
Maryland poked some fun at Senator
Fulton of Oregon for bis part In help¬
ing to frame the Allison amendment.
“I suppose," Interrupted Fuiton,
“when a wise man from Baltimore con¬
demns us that Is the end of It. If the
senator from Baltimore’’—
“I am not the senator from Balti¬
more exactly,” said Rayner. “I am
not any more a senator from Balti¬
more than the senator Is a senator
from Astoria. I am a senator‘from
Maryland.”
“Very well,” continued Fulton; “I
suppose he is the senator from Balti¬
more to the same extent that I am the
senator from Astoria. Now, If the sen¬
ator feels badly because I claim the
authorship of this amendment and he
really wants the honor of being the
author, I will make over a deed to him
glvtng him absolute and perfect title.”
“I never wnnted anything less In my
life,” declared Rayner, “I wouid not
go home with that authorship.”
“Nothing Distinctive.”
Representative McCall of Massachu¬
setts has the reputation of voting often
utmost alone In the house, or at least
with only a very few voting with him.
One day on some question he was vig¬
orously opposing there were twenty-
six votes cast with him, and all those
in the house voted the other way.
“There’s nothing distinctive In that
vote,” remarked McCall as he walked
up the aisle to the cloakroom. “There
were too mauy with me."
Fin* Courtesy In tha House.
Almost equal to senatorial courtesy
was a short colloquy between Repre¬
sentatives Butler of Pennsylvania and
Cockran of New York one day when
the naval bill was being considered.
Some one wanted to get ten minutes to
discuss some provision, and Butler ob¬
jected, saying:
”1 am a member of the naval com¬
mittee and have not asked the atten¬
tion of the house for five minutes this
afternoon.”
“That is the loss of the house," re¬
marked Cockran.
“Rather the relief of the house,”
modestly declared Butler.
“It Is the loss of the house, I Insist,”
replied Cockran, with a bow.
“Bertie's Boys.”
“Bertie’s boys” Is a term applied to
all members of the house committee on
foreign affairs, and for this reason ;
The Hon. Robert Adams of Pennsyl¬
vania is the acting chairman of the
committee, and be Is better known as
Bertie among those who know him
best. They have considerable fun with
Adams, who Is a great deal of a soci¬
ety man, and some of the jokers refer
to meetings of the foreign affairs com¬
mittee by saying that Bertie Is giving
his “boys” a “pink tea.”
Foraker to Hale.
The limitation of senators to fifteen
minutes In discussing amendments to
the railroad rate bill sometimes leads to
Interesting situations, as few senators,
especially when there are Interruptions,
could get through In that time. One
day when Senator Foraker was speak¬
ing Senator Hale, who had been mak¬
ing many motions to lay amendment*
on the table, wanted to question the
Ohio senator. “My time Is running
away,” said Foraker. “I esn’t yield
ikmv. I move to lay the senator from
Maine on the table.” And the senate
had a hearty laugh.

RSMLfi PROFIT BY DEADLOCK
Two Plane for Extricating the Govern-
ment Without Mooting the Direct
issue Are Suggested by the Empa
ror'e Moderate Advisors.
St Petersburg, May 28.—The pessL
ntism over the outlook continues to
grow. The government, as usual, In
every crisis, seems to be hesitating aa
to- which course to pursue. The em¬
peror refuses to yield to the counsels
of the oourt of Cartlla, but hts at¬
titude continues to be negative and
affirmative. He seems to gUng to the
idea that a compromise is still possi¬
ble. Several official notes have been
Issued denying that the government in¬
tends to resort to force, hut at the
same time there is no evidence that
the emperor is ready to yield to the
demand tor the supercession of the
present ministry with one from the
majority in the lower bouse of parlia¬
ment. The result 4s a virtual dead¬
lock, the prolongation of which can
ony serve to diminish the chances
of a peaceful settlement.
Two plans for extricating tha gov¬
ernment without meeting the direct
tasue are suggested by the emperor’s
moderate advisors. One is simply to
allow the lower house to talk until
the end of June, when the summer
vacation will be scheduled.
The other is to dissolve parliament
and order a new election. But the
latter course, in the judgment of the
best judges, will only tncresss the daa-
gsr of the situation.
The peasantry, whose hope* are In
parliament, would doubtlees be pro¬
foundly stirred by the government’s
refusal to distribute the crown and
church lands and recognise the prin¬
ciple of the expropriation of private
holdings, and many people expect to
see the destruction of their hopes foi-
loweded by an immediate uprising of
the peasants against the noble*.
The correspondent of the Associated
Pres* has talked wtth a number of
landlords from various parts of the
country who declare that the peas¬
ants are frantically attached to par¬
liament, and that between the dictum
of the emperor and of parliament they
will obey the authority of the latter.
The revolutionary leaders and the po.
letartat organizations of the cities are
sure to profit by the deadlock and a
Terroristic campaign Is already in full
swing.
M. Shlpoff, of Moscow, who last
week wa* considered a possible com¬
promise premier, is out with an In¬
terview declaring that after the ac¬
tion of the lower house on Saturday
he would not accept the premiership.
The only hope now of saving Russia
from a revolution Is the formation
of a ministry of constitutional rights
which will throw on the lower house
the responsibility of fighting the ex¬
treme elements.
Action Caused Surprise.
Chattanooga, Tenn., May 28.—The
action of the attorney general of the
United States came a* a surprise, tile
grand Jury having failed to find an
indictment against the lynchers of
Johnson, although strongly charged
by Judge McReynolds. It Is supposed
that the evidence adduced was Insuffi¬
cient to make out a case against any
suspect Ten of the men named by
the attorney general are officials, the
sheriff and his deputies. The others
are not widely known or prominent.
Three Killed In a Shooting Affray.

ed that Warren killed his wife and
Pierce and then committed suicide.
