The gigantic structure for the Graham Printing company, at Port Tampa City, is nearing completion and it will Be ready for occupancy by the 15th of No vember. It is a large two-story brick with a handsome slate roof and elegant ly lighted and most conveniently constructed. About two car loads of machinery, including presses, paper cutters, stereotyping outfiits, etc., have already arrived, with about ten more car loads to come. The machin ery will be run by electricity and it is the intention to have the entire plant in operation by February 1. It i» said that the employes of the concern will num ber between sixty and seventy-five and that they will be' imported from New Orleans. cation given by Spence could not be hinted at in public print or repeated in private conversation. There were also other good and sufficient reasons for the course the Herald has seen fit ti pursue which L is unnecessary to enu merate, but which are thoroughly un derstood by the parties at interest. We make the above statement for no special reason, but simply because we desire to do so and to avoid the charge of a lack of journalistic enterprize. The Spence-McNeil case will soon be a thing of the past. The Other Side of It. Editor Waycross Herald: Your' report in last evening’s issue, of the dif ficulty between Alec Weiss and Ben Jones, does the former a serious injus tice. Aleck has his faults, and some of them may be said to he humpers, but in this instance they do not seem to have been called into requisition. I was present at his trial and heari the evidence of Mr. J. W. Strickland and Dr. A. P. English for the city and that of Mr. Arthur Vann for the defen dant. The testimony of these three gen tlemen were to the effect that Ben Jones applied a most approbious epithet to Aleck, at the same time drawing his knife. Aleck then got a brick and ap proaching Jones, said that the knife and brick would better be dispensed with and the matter settled with fists. A lit tle later Jones came up without the knife, and repeated his insulting lan guage, whereupon Aleck knocked him down with his fist. His Honor, the Mayor, considered Alex.’s justification complete, and so ex pressed himself in rendering his decision. The same sense of justice which dictated this correction, will, I feel assured, cause you to publish it with pleasure. Very respectfully, F. B. Trent. We publish the above statement of Mr Trent with pleasure, and do not doubt that it contains a true statement of the case as it was made out before the Mayor. Our information was to the effect that Jones was very drunk and that Weiss was teasing him and finally got his knife, and afterwards knocked him down. The Herald is no especial ad mirer of Mr. Weiss, but would not in tentionally, do him or any one else an injustice, and it may be that in this in stance he had provocation for knocking a very drunk man in the head with a brick. We repeat, we would not inten tionally injure any one, but decline to apologize for our statement of yesterday, inasmuch as it was based upon what we supposed to be reliable information and upon the general hypothesis that Weiss has his failings w hich, to use the word of Mr. Trent “are humpers.” >'o Fever at Blackshear. Blackshear, Ga., Nov. " 6.—The health officer of this place sent the fol lowing to the correspondent of the Morn- g News: I understand that through the caprice of a couple of boys, the report has gone out that there is a case of- yellow fever here in Blackshear. I desire you to state in the Morning News for me that this report is without any foundation whatever. There js not a particle of truth in it. W. P. Williams. Health Officer, Blackshear. I Bought them right—You get them likewise. “Best Goods For the Least Money.” FRANK C. OWENS, The Leading Clothier, Owens’ Block, WAYCROSS, GA. Only Two Cars for Brunswick. Only two cars of the New York World’s relief train has reached Bruns wick, the other eight eais go to the Sea bland sufferers. Brunswick is disap pointed, and it will necessitate the send ing of relief from other sections. Fever Reported aft Camp of Detention. One case of yellow fever and one sus picious case, is reported at camp of de tention. We think the report lacks con firmation. Old Virginia stands solid for De mocracy. Brunswick has received 830,940,44 in money to date. The Democratic administration will lighten the tariff tax. The coming campaign in Georgia promises to be a hustler. Let us console ourselves that the Virginia populists arc also in the soup. The organized labor societies of Chicago will erect a monument to Carter Harrison. The elections returns seem to indi cate that there is a screw loose in the democratic machinery. The leading Democrats are not talking much about the causes which brought about defeat vesti-rd ;y. The case of IVenderg ist, for die assassination of Mayor Harrison, has been postponed to the 27 ins*. If it be true that “the Lord ehns- tisith whom he loveth,” the New York Democrats ought to be happy. The Democratic party in New York was defeated by Democratic votes. They will be all right next time. As a result of overwork, Million aire Leonard F. Beckwith, of New York Subway company, is temporarily insane. The Republicans in Washington wear a broad smile to-day. The Democratic party will attend to their cases later. There can be no doubt that the late wrangling in congress has had much to do with the present Demo cratic defeat It is announced from Paris that the Russian military commission has completed satisfactory tests of a navigable balloon at Warsaw. Let the Democratic party console itself that thi9 is the best time for defeat if it had to come. It gives us an opportunity to prepare for the big fight. Statistics just issued by the Ge ological Survey show that the total coal ontput of the United States during last year was 179,000.000 tons, valued at the mines at $207,567,381. More than half, or 99,000,000 tons, was mined in Pennsylvania. It is hard to convince the people that the evils we are suffering from came to us under Republican rale. An idea prevails with the masses that Democratic administration should change everything as if by magic. For SalfcjPlieap.

The Contributions. Times-Advertiser. Yesterday was an oft day at the com- missiary. Three hundred and forty-five orders, 885 individual rations, and 84 supplies for the sick, is the record. H. W. Reed, master of roads of the S. F. & W. R. R. at Waycross, raised about $100 among the employes of his department and purchased a supply of bacon, canned beef and tomatoes, which welcome contribution has been received at the commissiary. Through the efforts of Superintendent George W. Haines, the mill men along the B. & W. R. R., send six car loads of wood for distribution among the Bruns wick sufferers.

S.,” the Washington < pondent of the Columbus Enquin writes: Most Southern Congressmen left here are honestly in favor of the measure to repeal the taxon state bank notes. The hope is that the president will suggest this measure in liis forthcoming message, as two of his cabinet (Smith and Her bert) are known to strongly favor such a bill. Some alarm has been generated by the grandiloquent announcement of Representative Springer,chairman of the committee of banking and currency, that he is opposed to state banks, and the inquiry naturally arises, it he was known to disapprove of this measure, why was he selected as chairman of the commit tee which would have to dear with it, especially as he knows it to be a popu lar measure in the south, and that such an eminent economist as John Dewit Warner of New York, and other eastern pesple favor.
