The Xcw York legislature failed to

The trial of E. A. Mnderwood for the
mnrderof Alex Sayre, some six weeks
ago, was began in Atlanta Monday. From
the faots published at the time of the
killing Underwood wilt probably follow
in the track of Osborn, nnlesa something
new Is developed In the trial.
Macon's water supply is running

The Georgia convention for the
World’s fair will'meet In Atlanta to-day.
It will be a notable meeting, and mueb la
expected of it The foundation for
Georgia's representation at the World's
fair will be laid, and the peopio of the
whole state should sanction the work by
substantial support and assistance
ABOUT THE SPEAKERSHIP.
The attack, of the st Loul. Republic upon 1
Judye Crl.p, and 'heir forced etT.t-U to boom
Mr. Mill, for speaker of the next houeeof
representative, are ex' remely ridiculous
The last 1. that beta of tan to one are offer
ed In Wa.htnct'in that Mills will be elect'd
speaker. The Republic can get all the bets
that It will take at eveu flture..
Crl.p," It eontlou-s to cry, "esnoot be elect
ed because bs bas not been an enthusiastic
tariff reformer; because he has nut been In
favor of the repeal of the Internal revenu
tax on tobacco: because he waa ready to vote
fnrthe Blair bill; beconse he supported pro
hibition by the local option route In Gear-
Els, and sapp tried prohibition In consrest
by being one or the fmr democrats In the
house who volet for the original packs-e
bll'." Allof which Is the veriest bosh. Ad
It giteson tossy that t> re- Georgia membo a
are for Mills and will votefor him—another
piece of news tothe GscnrU members.
Were the election to lie hold to day, no one
know* better than the writer of t -e above
that Judge Crlspwout I getdoubte ns many
votes ee any other eendldsta In the r ice, and
his eleetloa Is now a certainty.—Atlanta
Const I tuI Ion.
The Constitution is right Judge
Clias. F. Crisp will be the next speaker
of the house, and the useless attacks of
Charles Henry Jones will only tend to
make him stronger. It will
bring more prominently before
the people the splendid work be
accomplished in his almost slngle-hand-
ed tilts with the tyranlcal speaker, who
occupied the chair in the last House,
which alone, If he bad done nothing else,
would entitle him to recognition'at the
hands of his party.
The cranky utterances of Charles Hen'
ry will have little weight with the mem-
bora who compose the next House, and
the only possible object of the attack Is
to keep his own name from sinking into
oblivion.
But Charles Henry Jones can he for
given when it is known that he inherits
his Insanity. The people of Talbotton,
Ga., where ho spent the
early part . of his life, are
well acquainted with his family his
tory. Ills father, Dr. John Jones, while
a good man, had his peculiarities, which
seem to be more perfectly developed In
his son. The Doctor was not considered
perfectly sound in mind, at least bis life
at that time was not such ns to create
that impression, and lie was always
looked upon as a man who, though
learned in his profession —ho was a prac
ticing physician—was regardod by
his neighbors as out of the usual run,
and if ho were alive to-day would he
termed a crank. '
It must be from this source that
Charles Henry gets his crazy streak.
THE TRENCH MASSACRE.
The slaughter of men, women and
children at Fourmles, France, by troops |
on May day islikely to bring on a serious j
eruption among the laboriny classes of j
that country. The soldiers claim that 1
they were justifiable in firing Into the
mob, as they were closely pressed, but
there is no excuse for killing the Inno
cent children, and it teems that they
should hare been able to repel the wo
men without the use of their guns. The
laboring classes, not only at Fourmles,
but also la all the labor centers in
France, aro terribly Incensed, and active
preparations are being mado to attack
the regiment which fired the fatal shots.
Dynamite, in large quantities, Is being;
imported from Belgium, and it looks
very much as If there would be lively
times at Fourmles.
But whatever the results of the inquiry
aro there is no doubt that a feeling of
bitterness against, the troops, and even
against the government, has been arous
ed that will not be allayed in a long time.
It will show Itself in riots and other labor
disturbances of one kind and another.
Io all the labor centers of France there
Is an unmistakable desire to avenge
those who were shot to death at Four
mles, and It is not improbable that the
killing and wounding of so many men,
women and children will cause a deplor
able condition of affairs throughout
France.

It is now stated that If Secretary
Proctor resigns to succeed Mr. Edmunds
in the Senate Preeldent Harrison will
give the war potifollo to General Alger,
and thus get him out of the way at a ri
val for the presidential nomination next
year. If Alger baa the bee in hit bonne*-,
however, he will decline to accept the
appointment.
The Michigan legislature bas adoped
a new method of cbooetng presidential
electors. The electors, Instead of being
elected on n general ticket from the etate
at large, will be choeen by districts.
Each congressional district will elect
one, and the whole etate bee been divid
ed into two districts, each of whloh wiU
choose an elector. The effect of tide ar
rangement will be to give the Democrats
at least half of the presidential elector*.
The republicans of Pennsylvania are
glad, doubtless, that G. W. Delamater,
their candidate for governor at the elec
tion last fall, waa not elected. Immedi
ately after the eleotion the bank of
Meadvillo, of which he was the head,
failed. And tlio follnro was one that
has never been satisfactorily explained.
All the circumstances connected wit lit
have an ugly look The liabilities were
about $1,100,000 and the assets look
rather slim jost now. ....
The Chicago Inter-Ocean says that the
democratic orators are not making such
a tintlntabulatiou about tin as they did
a few months ago. The orators, how
ever, pointed out to the people what a
fraud the tax on tio plate was, and the
latter aro now making the tintintabula-
tlon which Is so disagreeable to the ear*
of the republicans. The people are
aware of the fact that there Is not a
pound of tin mined In title eountry, and
the miserable, bulky and coarse stuff ex
hibited at republican conrentlons
American tin plate is nothing more than
American sheet iron oovered with tin
from Europe, and It was ths purpose of
McKinley when he increased in hie
tariff bill the tax on tin plate to compel
the people to puruhase the Inferior plate
made In thie country, in order to put
mlllloni of dollar* In the poekete of a
few republican* who are engaged in the
manufacture of (beet Iron.
The question whether Robert Ray
Hamilton Is alive [Is again occupying
publlo attention. Hamilton la the man
who, It will be remembered, waa a party
to a scandal In which a $10 baby was
palmed off on him as his own, and tho
woman In the case waa sent to the peni
tentiary. He went west, and it waa al
leged that he waa drowned while cross
ing a swift-flowing stream. The body
that waa said to bo bla was buried near
where it wa* found. Thomas Cooper, b
noted Wyoming guide, was present when
hi* body waa found, and bo say* that
there were circumstances which led him
to believe ‘.bat the body was not that of
Hamilton. Many believe that Hamilton
la In Australia, or some other foreign
country, and that be will reappear when
the public he* forgotten the scandal.
A sharper played several clerks In
8avannah In a small way, during mer
chants’ week. The man would walk in
to a crowded store and purchase some
small artlele worth a nickel, handing
the clerk a dollar bill and receiving
ninety-five cent* in change. The cus
tomer etarta out but returns in a hurry
and wants* cigar, also requesting to ex
change a sllrcr dollar which he throws
upon the counter for the dollar bill
The clerks very naturally hand out the
dollar bill In exchange, and also give
ninety five cent* In change for the silver
dollar. Some of the clerks could not
understand that they had been swindled
out of ninety-five cent*.
Death has claimed the etxtb victim
of the poisoned wedding feast near Lou
isville. Mr. W. B. Snook, the bride
groom of the occasion, having followed,
Friday night, his father and four others
of the marriage guests who had gone
before. In tbe meantime, the doctor*
are (till groping in their labyrinth of
threadiest theories.
The New York Herald contains this
terse deecriptlon of oar popular oon-
I am informed that it is by no means |
a positive thing that Congressman Jas.
H. Blount will not bo In tbe rate next
year for renomlnatlon. I understand
that he is under obligations to no man
not to run again. It Is the public Im
pression that Col. Blount will not sook
renomlnatlon, and only sought re-cloc-
tion last year in order to complete his
ambition of sorrlng twenty years in
congress. Therefore, if Blount Is in the
raco next year there will be lively times
Indeed, for it Is generally, believed that
Charlio Bartlett, of Bibb, Bob Whitfield,
of Baldwin, and Bib Berner, of Monroe,
will bo c andidates. There will bo mu
sic in tlio air in theslxtli district in 1892.
Yet, the congressional reappointment
may change the situation some.—Macon |
Evening News.
Congressman Dolliver, one of the
few repulicans in Iowa who managed to
escape the democratic tidal wavo last
fall, says that Gov, Boles will have to go
at tho next election, as the republicans
will sweep the state. This boast was
made at Washington a fow days ago but
since tliep lie has no doubt read iu the
papers that the farmors are going to put
a ticket In the field at the next state
election, and that Boies' chances of suc
cess are docidedly mure encouraging
than those of tbe republican who will
oppoee him. Botes ha* mado a good
governor, has given his attention to the
needs of the farmers, and there is every
reason to believe that hundreds of them
will vote for him again. One thing Is
certain, however, and that Is, If the
democrats tlekct is not successful the
republican will not be.
The examiner'! report on tbe condi
tion of the account* of Commissioner
Kolb, of Alabama, baa been made pub
llo, and Is a voluminous document. It
oovem several columns In tbe Birming
ham Age-Herald, and rone through a
number of years. There are only a tew
minor discrepancies, and tbe prlnolpnl
one of these is that Capt. Kolb rode on
free pause and charged the mileage np
to the state. This, he says, he thought
he had a right to do, and still thinks so.
Tbe Investigation wu made at bla own
request, and the result should satisfy
both bis friends and entailts that Capt.
Kolb It an honest man.
