t*r Governor McDaniel lias dis
missed Governor Smith from the
railroad commission, and appoint
ed Judge Evans to succeed him.—
The Macon Telegraph approves
this action of Governor McDaniel
as wise and timely, and is of the
opinion that Governor Smith lias
neglected his duty while a member
of the board of commissioners.
The (billons ('hcateil.
Atlanta Constitution.
Evictions in (leorgla.
Sometime ago there was a
bill before the house forbidding
members of Die legislature to ac
cept free passes on the railroads.—
That bill was overwhelmingly de
feated, and the passee eagerly ac
cepted. We then predicted that
the house would act to the injury of
the railroad interests of Georgia on
the first opnorlunity which offered
itself, That opportunity presented
itself last week in the discussion of
railroad commission hill. The bill
was defeated, and the most exten
sive money interest in tho. state
is remanded to tlie arbitrary and
unlimited control of three men,
whose every whim however unreas
onable or unjust becomes tlie law
of this vast interest with the doors
of (he courts closed against any
appeal for the correction of errors
or the adjustment of wrong.
Our Savannah exchanges of
Monday report the occurrence of
the most destructive storm which
lias swept that city since the
great storm of August, 1881. The
destruction is terrible, it is impossi
ble to estimate the damage. The
water rose to an almost unprece
dented height, inundating the river
bottom lands for several miles up
the river. The flood it is reported
lias completely destroyed the rice
■crop on the lowlands around Sa
vannah and up the river.
It is thought the shipping along
the coast has suffered severely.
The rainfall throughout the east
ern portion of the state was very
heavy. At Jessup nearly 6 inches
of water fell between 5 p. in. Satin'
day and f> p. in. Sunday. Floods
have damaged the railroads badly.
From everywhere comes the re
port ot destruction by flood and
wind, with no possible chance to
estimate the loss.
On Monday the house kill
ed the civil rights hill, Introduced
by Wilson, the colored member
from Camden county. Yeas 3, all
colored; nays 107, all white. If the
Ohio campaign was not over, this
vote would give John Sherman an
excuse for a big wave of the bloody
shirt. The house also passed the
bill creating hank examiners. They
are to he appointed by the governor,
and aro to receive ten dollars a day
and lie paid by the hanks examined
by them. The Dill now goes to the
senate. It also concurred in the
senate amendment of the school of
technology hill.
The senate refused (o concur in
the house amendment of tax asses
sors’ hill. The house laid cut out
the provision for tax assessors, and
-substituted a list of questions and a
long oath instead.
We have heard nothing of the
colored technological school hill,
but suppose the Dill will he
killed, unless the school should he
located in Athens.
Fort Gaines, Ga., October 11.
The death of Mrs. Sarah A. Honey,
one of the Milliron murderers, adds
another chapter to a bloody tragedy.
Mrs. Honey, her daughter Isabella,
and her son Willis, had conspired to
murder Mrs. Milliron, against whom
they had a grudge of some sort.—
Milliron came to his wife’s relief
and was at once shot dead by Willis.
Young Honey has just been found
guilty of murder, and will he hang
ed. Mrs. Sarah H. Honey contract
ed bilious fever during the week
and died in jail, from which she
was buried. The young woman is
still in jail, awaiting trial for her
crime.
The Fort Gaines Advertiser, de
scribing court week, says:
The jail at 1 he opening of the term,
contained eleven prisoners, of whom
eight were charged with felonies.—
Of these, one white man and two
white women were held for the
murder of Millirons. Judge John
T. Clarke presided. His charge
was like all his, remarkable for
clearness and comprehensiveness;
none could misunderstand it. By
its impressive style, it was well cal
culated to stimulate the grand jury
to a faithful' discharge of their im
portant duties. Accordingly they
went promptly and vigorously to
work. They found an unusual num
ber of true hills; many of which are
for felonies. Among others, seven
colored people were indicted for
one assault with intent to murder.
Before the week ended, the jail roll
had swelled to over twenty. In the
court room, tiie first day was given
to civil business. The court moved
with that smoothness and dispatch
for which our judge is celebrated.—
Tuesday morning the state docket
was taken up. Not a minute, which
could lie usefully employed, was
lost. Hudson, indicted for the mur
der of Millirons, was convicted. As
he lias made a motion for a new
trial, sentenceof death lias not been
pronounced. A number of felons
have lieen consigned to the peniten
tiary. One, a negro, convicted of
an assault witli intent to rape, goes
thither for a period of twenty years,
Bridges, the horse thief goes tor six
years. The list of misdemeanor
convicts is large. In brief, an un
common amount of work has been
done. Yet the jail could not he
cleared in the limited time of one
week. Judge Clarke holds Early’s
court this week. Our court was ad
journed to Tuesday the 8th of De-
cehibcr nox^at 8:30 a. m., when the
judge will resume the business of
jail delivery. We trust, that the
display of the power of the law
against criminals, which was made
last week, will have a salutary ef
fect on morals. The closing scene
of the court was one of marked
solemnity. Eleven young men,, all
strong and qualified for usefulness
and success in life, were up for sent
ence. The judge’s remarks were
very impressive. In a solemn man
ner in 1 called attention to the fact
that all these criminals were of the
rising generation and all, hut one,
of the colored race.
The grand jury of Clay county
made the following presentment:
We congratulate the county of
Clay on material evidence of pros
perity, of its rapid increase of popu
lation and wealth, hut we deplore
the rapid increase of homicides and
believe that it is encouraged and
fostered by the carrying of deadly
weapons, and urge upon our citizens
the Importance of their aid to the
grand juries in suppressing this
great evil.
lie SiiKNtHl the IbiLy.
gj/T" Senator Sherman during the
whole of the Ohio campaign false
ly asserted all over his state that
the negroes were not allowed to
vote in tho South. Dot us call iris
attention to the state of things in
the North. The New Haven,Conn.,
Union says:
“There are places in Connecticut,
and Meriden has been one of them,
where it was not healthy for a
Democratic working man to vote
against the candidate backed by
his Bepublican employers. Shot
guns were not used to convince
him, hut methods equally effective
were brought to hear. The bull
dozing of Democrats, though not
operly admitted until how, lias
been of frequent occurrence for
years past. A physician of Irish
birth, who lived near Northampton,
and liad voted there for nearly for
ty years, without dispute, found ids
vote challenged when he declined
finally to vote the Bepublican tick
et, and he was obliged to return
homo and limit up ids naturaliza
tion papers, which lie had not boon
required to show for more than a
third of a century. At that elec
tion, the overseers of the white op
eratives at the factories and mills
which abound in the lielghorhood,
stood at the polls with a list of
their names, and checked off
their names as they deposited Hi
publican tickets, none other being
allowed to ho voted under pain of
dismissal. Tiro calling for an old
naturalization paper, in the hope
that in the course of years it had
been lost, was a piece of sharp prac
tice, hut still a legitimate act; hut
to make dependent operatives un
derstand that if they voted the
Democratic ticket they incurred
the penalty of losing their employ
ment, though not asserted in so
many words is quite as lad or
worse than anything that lias been
charged often, unjustly, of the South.
Athens Banner: In conversation
with a gentleman lately, who had
been for years an employe under
Senator Joseph E. Brown, lie gave
us the following account of some of
the despotic means undertaken Dy
the ex-governor to coerce men in
his employ, or who are in any man
ner dependent upon his patronage
or sustenan 'e for support, into vot
ing as lie dictates. During the
Felton-Clements contest Senator
Brown was a hitter opponent to the
old doctor, and sent every voter
working on the Western and Atlan
tic road in the seventh district, or
who was in any manner dependent
upon his suffrage for support, a cir
cular stating that lie wanted them
to vote for Mr. Clements. He also
had Ins henchmen deputized to see
the men personally, and intimate
that a refusal to obey this mandate
was equivalent to a discharge from
the boss’ service. The first lesson
was given a conductor, who thought
lessly yelled out “Hurrah for Fel
ton!” as his train passed another.
One of Senator Brown’s spies re
ported the matter at headquarters,
and the next morning, when the
conductor reached his train, lie was
met by a discharge from the ser
vice of the road. No reason was
assigned, and he sought the presi
dent’s office to know why lie had
been so summarily dismissed. Mak
ing his complaint, Governor Brown
asked ms name. Upon being told,
that officer remarked:
“You have been discharged, sir,
at my instructions, and I do not
want you again on the road so long
as I am at its head.”
This was a settlor, and it was not
until some time afterwards that the
man learned that his “Hurrah for
Felton!” lost him a good job.
At the same time our old hotel
friend Lacy, who now lives at Lula,
kept an eating-house on the West
ern and Atlantic road, and was
doing a good business. He had
always been a warm personal triend
to Governor .Brown, and that gen
tleman and his family never passed
without stopping to see him. Mr.
Lacy was also favorable to Dr. Fel
ton. lie received one of the circu
lars, but being a man of ids own
head, paid no attention to it, and
stated that if he voted at all it
would he for Felton. His friends
advised him to reconsider, as Gov
ernor Brown could ruin liis busi
ness, as he spared neither friend nor
foe who disobeyed his commands.
But Mr. Lacy persisted in exercis
ing his preference. As soon as the
election was over, an order came to
change the eating-house for trains,
and also instructions for not even
the railroad hands to stop at Mr.
Lacy’s to get a lunch. Friends tried
to reconcile Governor Brown, hut
he was obdurate, and succeeded
destroying the business of his for
mer friend.
But the smallest act was tlie dis
charge of a track hand with a large
and dependent family, and who was
working for 75 cents per day. This
man did not disobey the order from
headquarters, hut failed to go to the
polls at all. The day after the elec
lion he was not only given his dis
charge, but a lot of railroad hands
were set to work demolishing the
miserable shanty in which himself
and family resided. Senator Brown
is a man of few words. He gives an
order, and it its not implicitly
obeyed, off goes the delinquent’s
head. By this means he is a politi
cal power in any section where he
controls property, as his men know
they dare not vote in opposition to
his wishes.
Washington, October 10.—The
East Boom was pretty well crowd
ed with visitors at the recent White
House reception. It was a great
day for the children, and they
wore there in force. They all
received some recognition from tho
president. The most fortunate one
was a pretty little flaxen-haired,
chubby-faced boy, whom Ids moth
er, a reserved and timid little
woman, carried on her left arm.—
Hite shook hands' with the president
and was passing on, when Mr.
Cleveland detained her and saying:
“That is a pretty little chi Id,” lean
ed forward, and tho echoes of a
smacking kiss reverberated along
tho corridors. The president had
broken ids record.
This good fortune aroused the
envy ot not a few mothers in the
room, and they could lie seen wip
ing the mouths of their cherubs in
preparation for the oscillatory con
test, which, however, did not come
off. One baby a day the president
considers sufficient, and he kissed
no more. Attention was, however,
attracted to a 3-year old hoy, who
was inquiring with considerable en
ergy: “Where is he? Where is
he?” and expressing his opinion
on things in general iu a very bois-
trousfashion, liis mouth had been
wiped, and as his mother sailed
majestically forward, and shook
hands with the president, the pre
cocious youth held up his cherry
lips and remarked : “Let her go!”
The temptation was great, hut the
president resisted it and passed the
youngster with a smile.
It Didn’t Work.
A preacher in Tennessee lias ex
perimented with the Sam Jones
theology. On the occasion referred
to he ascended the platform as usual,
and after the nrcliminary services,
he slowly removed his glasses,
and glancing over tho audience,
solemnly remarked that he was go
ing to deal in some plain,unvarnish
ed gospel truths to-day, and would
try, the Lord being willing, and
helping, to expose the hypocrisy of
professing Christians, and if there
were any person or persons present
who did not want to iiear it, they
had an opportunity right then to
“rack out.” To his utter surprise
and consternation, the congrega
tion arose as one man and “racked.”

A number of dogs were recently
dosed with morphine until they be
came insensible, the object being to
determine what drug would act
most rapidly as an antidote. It was
found that hy podermic injections of
tlioine neutralized the narcotic al
most instantly, although it was em
ployed only after the heart had
ceased to heat. Caffeine had a con
siderable anti-narcotic power, hut
was not equal lo the principle de

The AsKiisninatIon 111 Echols.
Valdosta (Ga). Times.
Mr. George W. Hunter, of Echols
county, was shot from liis horse,
Friday of last week, by parties in
ambush. The work of the assassin
was complete, for he was riddled
with buck shot, and fell dead to tho
ground.
Mr. Hunter had been out gather
ing hogs in company with two
other gentlemen. He rode a horse
and they had a horse cart. The
cart had been tilled with hogs and
the party was crossing Toni’s creek
with them. One of the party rode
on the horse attached to (lie cart,
and Mr. Hunter rode horseback in
rear of tho cart. When they had
reached about tho middle of the
swamp that enveloped the creek,
the report of a gun very near them
in the hushes startled the two men,
and Mr. Hunter was seen to fall to
the ground. Tho affrighted horses
were given additional impulse to
dash out when tho second shot was
tired. When the swamp was clear
ed the horse was cut loose from the
cart. One of the men mounted him
and tiie other mounted tho rider
less steed and they galloped to
Huckleberry station. A crowd was
soon gathered and they returned to
tho scone of the tragedy. Mr. Hun
ter was found dead in the road
where he fell and no one was to bo
seen. Tho parties with him at the
time the gun was fired saw no one
and no definite clue lias been had
at tho last accounts as to the identi
ty of tiie assassin.
About a year ago, or more, Mr.
Hunter became involved in a diffi
culty with Mr. Tip Padgett, his fath
er-in-law. Mr. Padgett went to
Hunter’s house and was in a threat
ening attitude when Hunter tired
on him and killed him on tlie spot.
Tho ease was examined by tho
grand jury and they failed to find
a true "bill against Hunter, tho evi
dence going to show that ho killed
Padgett in defence of his own life.
