el
gays the minister Votes the Republican I
ficket. Another Interesting Chapter
Added to Savannah Controversy. |
Rev. A- M. Williams of Trinity |
Methodist church, Savanoah, has besn |
qoting 1080 politics considerably of |
rbe a:]d recently made an attack in
L"B ;)u';pi'. upon the management ofthe
slaee election in Chatham, claiming, i
émongo:her things, that .the returns
; added and that his own vote
gere pd
88 stolen—vhat although be did not \
qote his name appeared on the voulng |
Jigt, 804 vhat his baliot was.counted.
He‘ma*i‘-‘ direct reference in his ser
on 10 {ditor Pleasant A. Stovall of
(e Savannah Press, who is also a
membg!‘()f the legislature, and called
gpon the editor-legislator to reform
the election system and purify the po.
Jitical sumosphere generally.
pditor Stovall had an editorial criti
¢ism on the preacher’s sermon, and
\pen the preacher went back 'at the
editor in another sermon last Supday
pight.
Now Editor Stovall, in a two-column
editorial, addresses himself to ‘‘The
Wwanderings of Mr. Williams,’”! and
contends that the preacher’s st,rict.-l
ures were made from heresay and that
there is & way to contest the eiection
before the geperal assembly if he is
pot satisfied with the result. There
#as 00 opposition to the regular dem
ocratic ticket at the polls on Oct. sth,
and The Press, while condemning any
fraud, shows that no one could have
profited by such fraud. In the follow
ing paragraph the editor of the Press
tprees’’ his game:
“\[r. Williams is a natural foe to
democracy, state and uational. Ha
voted for McKinley for president in
1900. The Press hus the authority for
saying this, and he is not now an ad
vocate of Judee Parker. The election
hasn't come off, and there is"no way of
nredicting how he will vote. He may
follow his course in the state election I
ofpot voring and of standing off and |
criticising those who do. The Press l
believes that Mr. Williams is rather
anapologist for the republican party,
Roosevelt, Booker Washington, et 1d
omne genus. His private talk has
been all in that direction. He has
been anti-democrat for several years
and has been growilng more so every
year, He has opposed democratic nom
inees for governor, president and
county officers, and is just as much an
enemy of the party as Tom Watson.”
The Press charges that Rev. Mr.
Williams has been bitten by the
political gadfly, and calls his sermon
claptrap. It vells him ‘‘this is no
timetoslind along between the armies
in Chinese uniform.”

MR. BRYAN ON THE NEGRO QUESTION SOUTH
Talks Straight from the Shoulder in Addressing His Vast Audiences.
Says Roosevelt Has Thrown the South into Anxiety and Alarm.
In the progress of the national cam
paign there have been very few north
ern or western orators or writers to
emphasize the negro question. There
is one, however, who is talking
straight from the shoulder on that is
sue, and he is William J. Bryan.
In all his speeches he lays stress
upon this iasue. A few days since in
addressing the people in Indiana he
sald:
“You never hear of the president ap
pointing a negro postmaster in the
porth; but in the south, where the ele
vation of the black man above his
white brother is particularly distaste
ful, there is wherethe colored appoint
ments are made.”’
In ap article in the Saturday Even
ing Post he covers this question thor
oughly and conclusively as follows:
“President Roosevelt has done more
to embicter the white and black races
against each other in the south than
any or even all of the presidents who
have occupied the white house since
the civil war. Whether 1n insisting
upon the appointment of colored offi
cials over the protest of white patrons
of the office he has been actuated by a
desire to help cthe colored people, or
by a desire to make political capital
among the colored veters of the north,
is immaterial. Itis certan that he has
raised an issue which bas thrown the
southern states intoanxiety and alarm.
His attempt to override the wishes of
the whites in various southern com
mupities has made the entire south |
ABOUT JUDGE RAINES.
Atlanta Paper Notes His Presence
in That City.
¢rom the Atlanta Journal.
Judge A. M. Raines of Dawson was
at the capitol for a few hours today,
calling on his various friends. Since
Judye Sheffield has announced that be
would not be a candidate for re-elec
tion Judge Raines has stated that he
would be in the race to succeed him
as judge of the superior court of the
Pautaula circuit.
The announcement that Judge Riines
will be a candidate will be read with
great interest and pleasure throughout
the atate, as he has hundreds of friends
who would be delighted to see him on
the banch. He bas been judge of the
city court of Dawson for several years
and is one of the ablest lawyers in
southwest Georgia. Already he has
received many assurances of support
from the various counties comp(sing
the district.
Although the election is two years
away, and aithough he will make no
active campaign for the place, Judge
Raines decided i% was best to announce
that when the time came to make the
race he would be a candidate.

fearful that a second term may still
further estrange the races and plunge
that section of the country into the
horrors of a race struggle. The enter
tainment of Prof. Booker Washington
at the white house has been construed
by many as an attempt upon the part
of the president to raise the question
of social equality, and this has further
aggravated the race situation in the
south. If the president Intended to
raise that question with a view of set
tling it in favor of the black man, it
means the arousing of a feeling which
will seriously interfere with the calm
consideration-of industrial and econom
ic problems. If, on the other band,
the president did not intend to force
upon the public the consideration of
the guestion of social equality it was
exceedingly unfortunate that he did
anytbing that could bear that con
struction. The people of the north,
where the dominance of the white race
is pot menanced and where the blacks
are comparatively few in number, kave
no conception of the conditions which
prevailed in the south during the peri
od of reconstruction, and it is there
fore difficuls for them to understand
the feeling of the southern people. The
democrats of the north, who both de
sire zgud need the co-operation of south
ern democrats in resisting the en
croachments of plutocracy, are vitally
interested in removing the race issue
from national politics, so that the party
can make an aggressive fight for in
dustrial and economic reforms.”’
INCENDIARY FIRES.
‘Farmers in Sumter County Suf

~ Incendiary fires in Sumter county
are becoming numerous. The gio
'house on the Hawkins plantation west
of Americus was destroyed with twelve
bales of cotton and a large guantity of
seed belonging to J. P. Read, the
lessee of the plantation. The loss was
probably two thousand dollars. In the
Friendship community the barn of
Deputy Sheriff Gatewood on his Jordan
plantation was burned with all con
tents. A valuable mule perished in
this blaze, while others were severely
burned in escaping from the barn.

’GEORGIA S GRAND PRIZEN
COMMISSIONER STEVENS RETURNS
WITH POCKET FULL OF MEDALS.
This State Took All of the Principal
Prizes for Agricultural Exhibits at
the World’s Fair. What They Are.
One of the proudest men in the
United States today is Commissioner
of Agriculture Q. B. Stevens, who has
just returned from a week’s sojurn in
St. Louis and bringing with him
three grand grizes for agricultural ex
hibits, and about twenty-five medals,
including ten gold and the others
silver and bronze.
The first grand prize is for a collect
ive exhibit of hay, corn and peas. i
The second grand prize captured by
Georgia is for Sumatra tobacco, grown
and manufactured in Amsterdam, De
catur county.
The third grand prize is for naval
stores, raised and mapufactured in
south Georgia.
Thus each part of Georgia gets a
grand prize.
WHY UNCLE OBE IS STUCK UP. '
These prizes were won in open com-\
petition with Texas and her $lOO,OOO
‘appropriation on one side and Cal
ifornia and her $200,000 appropriation
on the other side, while Georgia made
out the best she could witn $30,000,
but presented a greater variety and
better display of actual products than
all the other states and foreign coun
tries combined. In fact Commissioner |
‘Sbevens claims that Georgia stands!
first in the whole agricultural display
of any state or country represented at
this greatest of world’s fairs.
~ To have won out in tobacoo against
Virginia, Kentucky and the Carolinas
will be as surprising to most Georgians
as it is gratifying. The truth is that
very few of us realize the full great
ness of our stale.
J. L. Berry of Griffin gets a gold
medal on his big boll cotton. Georgia
also gets a gold medal for the best sea
island cotton. These are the principal
prizes carried off by Georgia.
A PLEASANT RECEPTION.
Not only have the Georgia commiss
ioners carried off the first prizes with
their meagre appropriation, but they
iha.ve managed to keep open house
in the Georgia building with great
hospitality and have ever once and
awhile given receptions to homefolks
that have been most pleasant and en
joyable.

Mothers should always keep in good
bodily health. They owe it to their{
children. Yet it is no unusual sight to
see a mother, with babe in arms,
coughing violently and exhibiting all
the symptoms of a consumption ten

mother and child, when Dr. Boschee’s
