A Washington dispatch pul* lishcd in the Morning News yes terday quotes W. N. Mitchell, it Georgia visitor in tlud city, ii an interview, as saying: "l think 1 know something of th« sentiment of the people of the South, and 1 n uke the prediet ion that Col. Roosevelt, if nominated, would carry Georgia hy not less than 5,000 votes, and it should he remembered that Georgia, nominally, is good for -10,(KMC Democratic majority.” Mr. Mitchell must reside in one of the counties which Mr. Taft carried in IPOS, lbs ac quaintance with the sentiment of the South is probably confined to that county, for certainly he can not find in Georgia generally a sentiment that justifies his pre diction that Col. Roosevelt would carry this state by s,ooomajority if nominated for President in 19- I*2, It is doubtful if Col. Roose velt would get as many vote- us Mr. Tuft did. Col. Roosevelt has some every enthusiastic admirers in every state. They art* so enthusiasm c that they are unable to form a correct opinion of political senti ment in their respective states. Mr. Mitchell is probably a Roose velt admirer of that sort. In the first place Georgia isn’t going to desert the Democratic party yet awhile, and in Cue second place she isn’t likely to Ik* carried away by Col. Roosevelt s New Nation alism. The people of tieorgia respect the constitution and the rights of the states. They will stand by the constitution as in terpreted by by the Supreme Court as long as will the |v>j ie of any other state. The\ have no sympathy w ith attacks upon the country's highest legal tri bunal such as that contained in Col. Roosevelt's address to the Colorado Legislature last August' Mr. Mitchell is simply mistaken in assuming that Georgia is ready to iollow Col. Roosevelt. A- a matter of fact it is ex tre: iel> doubtful if Col. Roose velt will he able to carry New 1 York I'"!- the ticket which he I nominated at Saratoga. He is ' regarded as tin* strength of that ticket, lie named its candidate for Governor and dictated its platform. If it is defeated it will he reg tided as a defeat for hue. If ii turns out that he can not carry his home state, which at the lasi slate election went Republican hy a large majority, v li.u chance would he have for • carrying Georgia, which, as Mr. Mitchell admits, is Democratic •10.(KM) majority? The betting in New' York is against the success of the Roose velt ticket, and there is being formed now a club of Tal’t and Hi: Pies Republicansih New Yory city that it is to work and vote against ( 1 I. Roosevelt s candi date for Governor, simply be cause the members of the club bel ow that the success of the ! ■; ;c:ei ;n ket in New York would mean Col. Roosevelt’s nom ination for President in 1012. Go!. R» sevel’t New National ise isn't Ivoing so generally ac cented. eve s by Republicans, as Mr. M ichcU seems to think it is.

K. AN EXPLORER IS DEVOURED BV AN ALLIGATOR. London, Oct. 9. News of the terrible fate of an explorer, Mr. Thomas Kellis, of Mold, Flint shire, who was traveling in Hon duras. Central America, has been received by his friends at Mold. Mr. Beilis left England last February at the head of an expe dition which was to investigate the natural resources of the inte rior of Honduras. Some months later a laconic telegram from Te gucigalpa. the capital of Hondu ras. informed Mr. Beilis’s rel ; atives that he had been drowned. Letters now received at Mold in dicate that the explorer was de voured by an alligator. It seems that the ll it-bottomed boat in vhtch the party wen; pro ceeding up a river, capsized. Mr. Beilis struck out for the bank,but ihe was almost at once seized by the leg by an alligator and drag ged under. The rest of the party reached the bank, but were unable to rescue Mr. Beilis or to recover the body. Mr. 11 ilis was 1> years of age and unmarried. He had had an adventerous career in South Af rica and other parts of the world. Farm For Kent. An extra good three-horse farm for rent, lb liter must furnish stock.
