It is safe to say that crimes of this character cannot be practiced so extensively in -this countryjas in England, and the per petrator will soon bo caught and brought to justice. Bill McKixlky is preparing to say farewell to Washington, and will loave that city early next month. His pres ence there has helped to put a heavy burden upon the country, and the poo- plo of this section would willingly say farewell to Billie and his bill too if It were possible. Douolassvillk has a sensation in tho disappearance of two of its prominent citizens—a man and a woman—the .former a husband and the latter a widow. They have been tracked to Jacksonville, Fla, and last, but their frleqds are still on the trail, and hope *tbat matters will turn up a little better tthan gossip would have it. Tom Watson need not lie afraid of • the Democracy of Charles F. Crisp. Tom : is aclever, sharp, well meaning fellow, but hit constituents will have cause to feel surprisingly proud of him if, during * his term in Congress, he shonld show .half the zeal, ability and faithfulness of devotion to Democratic principles that have characterized Charley Crisp. Tom has made a big mistake.—ishmaelite. Tub evidence on both sides in the famous Martin case at Birmingham was concluded Friday evening, and nothing now or sensational has developed since the statement of tho prisoner. Yester day was consumed in argument and able apeeehes were made on both sides. Tho sympathy of the people of Birmingham seems to be with the fair defendant, and public sentiment cannot fail to effect the jury. ! bill passed the senate is one of the pleas- j ant memories of tho forty-eighth con- j press. He explained that when the voto | was taken he was “down stairs taking a j hath, a thing he had never done before j in his life.” Of course, he meant that i lie was never before absent on such an | important vote, but his friends insisted on “guying” liim about- his admission that he had never bathed except on that occasion. It is known that 3Ir. Mill’s heart is set on Reagan’s seat, and this will bo his last term In the house, whether he ob tains the senatorsbip or not. Indeed,he has very recently stated as much in a public interview. Moreover, he has made a pretty thorough canvas of tho Democratic members of tbo uext house, and is discouraged at the prospect of re alizing his speakership ambitions. He and his friends, therefore, have gotten up this deal, which will let Reagan down into a soft berth, put Mills into the senate and save him the mortification of being defeated in his speakership cam didacy. With Mills out of tho race, Judge Crisp, of Georgia, will have a walk over. Some of tho Texans scout the idea of the rumored deal. They do not pretend to have direct information on the subject, but arguing from what they know of the political situation in Texas, they say It is highly improbable. Tho weak point in the program, they Bay, is tho appointment of Reagan on the rail road commission. That appointment, they say, would have to be made by Governor Hogg, who was a violent anti prohibitionist during tho famous Texas prohibition campaign, and Reagan was equally as violont the other way. Tho feeling between the two men became ex- tremoly bitter, and Hogg’s friends say that ho would not sign any commission with Reagan’s namo upon It. John P Giikkx, the colored lawyer and orator, does not like the now term, “Afro-American,” for tho people of his race. “I liko the word ‘negro,’ with a big X,” he declared at a Cleveland ban quet recently. Sensible man. Why should a negro bo ashamed of his proper designation, any more than a Chinee, a Jap, a Hindoo or an Indian? A pure blooded negro ought always to insist upon being called a negro with a big X not “colored,” for that means the va rious shades between the black and white, which miscegenation has dis graced the pure blooded raca with. When negroes learn to be proud of being negroes, and their natural color they will make better citizens, than when they are ashamed of being called what they were created, negroes with a big N. Florida is now getting a dose of the two-thirds rule, and the leading papers are calling vigorously for the legislature to break the deadlock. The Times- Union says: For nearly two weeks the people of Flor- Ida have been watching the political drama now being enacted at Tallahassee, and the spectacle has not be»n an edifying one. They nee a small minority ofthe Democratic members of the legislature attempting to dictate to a strong majority In the matter of A nomination for United Htutes senator—a minority which bas no idea thmltnownc&n dfdate can b*» elected, but which U directing nil itaeflTorts toward prolonging the present desdockIn the hope that it can by this means defeat the re-election of Wilkinson Call.

Bradley, in tho latter’s store, in Atlanta last year, will pay the penalty of his rashness on the gallows. He has just had a hearing before the supreme court which sustained-the verdict of the court below, and it now only remains for Jndgo Clarke to re-sentenco the prisoner and sot a day for the execution. In handing down the decision the su preme court expresses its views of the case as follows: The evidence discloses tlint an stroclous, unprovoked and d Uarratc murder was committed by tho defendant. The verdict finding him guilty mul imposing upon him the penalty of death, In ,ur opinion, renders exact and substantial justice. Afltr a thorough, careful and anxious examination of the entire record we are fully convinced that the Judgment of the court below should stand. It Is well xtmwn that Juries are re luctant to take away by their verdicts the 1 ves of their fellow-creatures, and when good men, Iu the faithful and conscientious discharge of a painful duty, enforce and vin dicate the law as the Jury In this case un- doub edlydid, we do not leel authorised tj discourage them and other* who may try s ch eases In future by rettltg aside a verdict whPh is manifestly right. It 1h the first time in a number of years that a plain verdict of murder has been rendered in Fulton county, as in most cases the juries have been lenient, and attached the recommendation of mercy. But this case should be a les son to all “pistol toters.” Osborn was mad and no doubt prepared for a fuss before he left his own place of business. He did not collect the amount in dis- E ute, but he succeeded in blighting two appy homes, and bringing his own neck to the hangman’s noose. In the rauks of Germany’s generals, there is none who can handle his sword; and with his death the last of the great leaders of modern warfare passes from the stage. A word of praise from Editor Sid Lewis of the Ishmaelite means a great deal, for he never hesitates to say just what he thinks, be it favorable or other wise. Hence Tub Timeh-Rbcokdbii ap preciates the compliment paid it by the Ishmaelite, knowing so thoroughly the fearlessness that has always character ized the opinions of this brilliant jour nalist. The editor of The Timks-Re cordeu has known Editor Lewis for twenty-three years, as well as all his kith and kin, and thinks candor and love of truth is no less conspicuous than their ability. Long may Editor Lewis continue to deal his sledge hammer blows to all kinds of crookedness, gam mon and hypocrisy. POWDER Absolutely Pure. A cream of tartar baking powder.
