Special to RecokdBK.
Atlanta, Nov. 11.—'The first
business in the Legislature this
morning was the election of mo,
judges.
First came the Judgeship of the
Brunswick circuit. .Judge 8,
Atkinson had uo opposition and
was elected, receiving 204 votes
The next election wa» the most
exciting or all—that betweeu Judge
J. 8. Boynton and Col. J. 8. Pope
lor the Judgeship ol the Flint oir
cult. Col.jL. L. Middlebrooks was
put in nomination, but withdrawn
almost immediately, and his votes
were changed. It was close nearly
all through, first one and then the.
other forging ahead. Judge Boyn
tou came In handsomely at the fin
isb, receiving 110; Pope 101.
Judge W. F. Jenkins was then re
elected, without opposition, to the
Judgeship of the Oemulgee circuit,
receiving 207 votes.
Then the Judgeship ofthe North
ern circuit for the unexpired term,
to succeed [Judge Sam Lumpkin.
Everybody ,was expecting a hard
fight, but they were 'disappointed.
First the uame of Hon. Sesb Reese
was withdrawn, and then that of
Judge O. G. Worley, of Elbert.
This left Harnp McWhorter,
Ogletherpe, with no opposition. He
received 206 votes out of the total of
206. The term expires Jan. 1

OOBDON’S SPEECH.
Of course there lea great deal of
talk Unlay about Gov. Gordon’s
Boltael talk.

the cltlxena of Atlanta coaid make
It la ran cortaln* It waa tha dnaat

rhe'orlc beauty
perpetuation.
It* effect, u* a vote making effort,
can her ily be entimated. So far a*
a casual observation goes it left the
lines pretty much a* they^were
before. Gordon's friends claim
that it made hi in votes. His opp<*
nenta claim that hit denial of a | Have Them,
atatemeut substantiated by ho many
good men hat hurt him, the state-
rneut that is About the Alliance
platform having “only ono plank,
aud that plank a rotten one.” Hit
rough handling of the
lives from DeKalb mutt have the
same effect, if it hat any special
effect.
But he had the crowd last night!
There is no doubt of that.
At to the status of the racks no
material change has been made
since Saturday night. Gordon has
more votes thau it wss thought
possible for him to securo—but not
enough to elect. Conceding that
hecau hold all he has—which is
disputed—he mutt get several more
vote* to elect him.
The question is at far from settle
ment as ever.

Y eeterday every body was talking
about the gran t demonstration ofj
the night before, and what a ‘mag
nificent success wan made of the
movement. , . , .
That it 1 Was the greatest Demo
cratic love-feast ever held in this
part of the country, was the univer
sal verdict of all, and they, so ex
pressed themselves. They all had
a good time and enjoyed the exer
cises to an extreme extent, and
nearly everyone waa hoarse on ac
count of so much shouting.
Gentlemen—I suffered for years
with a kind of Tetter, or breaking
out all over my body, and at times
these small plniides would termi
nate In bolls. While traveling in
the South last year I had occasion
try a bottle of P. P. F.’, which
was recommended to me by a
friend, and to my surprise it helped
so much tbat I got six bottles
mure, ami after taking the full con
tents, I felt better than I had since
the beginning of my troubles, and
while 1 have no symtoma of the
disease returning, Ism still using
the wonderful blood medicine at
intervale, and am fully satisfied
that I will be entirely cured of a
disease that for fifteen years has
troubled me. I cannot express my The occupants of tha wAgonwsr*
The gentlemen who did the work
are entitled to aod receive the
greatest praise for their hard-labors
in behalf of the demonstration.
Only two days were had to get all
the affair ready, and It was only
by the most undlmlnlshlng effort
that these days were used so as to
get up any sort of an entertain
ment. Then think what their work
must have been to get up such a
program as was', gone through!
And It took money! Fos this finan
cial aid thanks are given to all who
contributed and this includes nearly
alltheclty. Much praise <s also
due Judge PUsbury, Capt. Hitt and
Messrs. Brown and Rylanderfor
their efforts In getting up the sub
scription. They devoted much
time and energy to this work, and
succeeded admirably, but thryar*
still a small amount behind, and
any contributions will, be a good
move for a good cause.
Mr. Bascom MyrlCk, aa Chairman
of ttie committee on floats, did splen
did work. A majority of the oar
toons and mottoes wsro originated
by him personally, and he superin
tended all the work.
Mr. C. W. Littlejohn labored hard
to get the floats ready In time, and
how well be succeeded was seen
Monday night.
Duncan A {Co., also assisted in
in this work, and to them and Mr.
Littlejohn Is due a great amount of
praise, which has already been re
oelved from those who know of
their eflbrts. Several of the floats
were originated by these gentlemen.
Mr. Felder aud Mr. Council, the
oue executive offioer and the other
Grand Marshall, were among the
originators of the movement, and U
was largely due to their Work tbat
It came about at all. They put the
ball in motion, aud were promptly
aided by our other cltlsena.., Mr.
Felder attended to a great amount
of correspondence, as ohalrman of
the committee on invitations, and,’
