Koine very remarkable claim* are belli* pul for- wurtl by the frlvildi of candidate*. Ooa of tlte moat renurkabln of tliuso claim* m mlvntu'eil by the Atlatito Journal lu the fnl’mriu* Htnlement, which la token (ram one of its Ionics publltlinl last wivk.

Id Unite who rave undo It their bus- lne*s to keep ported on Ibe prngren* of tho lenntorlal cnmpnlKii the above Htatemciit Is decidedly amusing. We, of course, do not know who made this "actual oount” for our friends of Iho Journal, but wc mqtgost llmt they have their young man who furnished those - flgurr* revise his arithmetic, and also make a closer study of tho political situation In tho threo comtressionnl districts named. It happens tlmf wo nine have been dovotlng soino attention to the political situation In these district* since the to- cent alnto election, nnd we have every reason to believe that tho olalm put tonvnnl for Mr. Turner hy his very zealous supporter, iho Journal, cannot be sustained hy the cjld facts of tho ease. We also have coin some count ing, nnd therefore wdl submit to our render* what wo believe to bo an ap proximately tv,meet statement of the voto In Uic districts In question. We conccffi', of court.-, that Mr. Tur ner Is naturally strong In tho three ills- trleta named, by reason of the fact that he tin* represented tho Second, now represents the Eleventh, anil has active friends wftkiug for him In tho Flint, lint tho friend* of oiher emdl- dates liavo not been Idle, nnd tho fol lowing figures will show that their work lias been otteot'v*. The counties of Ihc F.rst, Second and penology convict must bo kepi from escaping and nude to earn UU living. 'J'be ou tlet problem In this state Is a trouble- oolite one and one about wb.rh the pub lic conscience Ik Sore, and a principal keeper Is neodisl who wilt no', ugly lie able to protect the present Interests of Hie Slate bur who will be able lo help lu .nst.tmlUK such a new penitentiary system as will satisfy the requirement* of an advanced civilization. In lUUag till* office, therefore, the new governor cannot afford to please those who are urging the claims of a candidate upon him, unless that candidate' >upp<;U* to be the best man In Georg.i for tho place. The same reasoning applies. In a general way, to tho c**e of Iho commissioner of educa tion. Tbc business of tbit offle.nl It to administer the affairs nnd constantly Improve a great system of public schools. Ho might, therefore, to bo :t man thoroughly familiar with public school work. Tim mere fact that a man hat taught school, nnd taught suc- 1 oertfully, I* not sufficient to prove that ho would make a good commissioner. The special knowledge of public School work It necessary, and besides tbit knowledge tbc commissioner should lie n progressive man, with high Ideals, end with the force of character nnd onthiwU’Sm llmt will Impress them upon the whole system. At we hare sniff, Ur. Atkinson's task la a difficult one, but we believe lie I* big enough and true enough to :>cr- form it well TIIB D1XIB INTEKSTATB FAIR.

Of this number Maj. Raven ran safely claim the votes of sixteen representa tives nail four senators, making n to tal of twenty.

It Is very possible that Mr. Garrard and Mr. W'ulsli may gej n portion of these. Wc submit this showing of the rela tive strength of the candidate* after it careful nnd thorough examination, nnd It It based on Information which wo believe to he entirely reliable. We de sks to treat Mr. Turner's eamildney with the utmost fairness, hut ave are not willing to let pass without chal lenge such unfounded claim* ns to hi* strength in the districts named.

A Locomotlvo rireiuon'i Courage Wlian a Life Wa* In Danger* “Som« year* ago,” said n gray halted veteran In railroading, “wo received a new locomotive on our road of very pccul* lar pattern, being equipped with many new patent*, wherthy great speed was to be attained. 1 was superintendent of tho road then and determined to tako it out mywrif on a special schedule and txscortaln If tho now ideas weru practical. I picked out a first class cnlgnmr and fireman to accompuny mo. The latter was (l feet tall and built In proportion. Well, tho loco motlvo proved to bo all tho builders claim- ed'for her nnd ran the record up to G4 mile* an hour, which Is quite a kpeod for our road, being possra^cd of many sharp curves nnd grades. “When tho cnglno was going her beet nnd hod just rounded a sharp curve, I no ticed directly ahead of lue allttto girl half way across n single truck bridge that ■panned qulto n body of water. Thero wn* no rooii) for ns both on tho structure, and in despair 1 pulled tho whistlo nnd triodi although I knew It Was n hopeless task, to stop tho eogino. At the shrill shriek of the whistlo reached tho little girl's card sho turned, and seeing tbn en gine boaring down upon iicr ran ahead n fow steps, nnd then, realizing tho impossi bility of reaching tho other sUlo before tho engino would bo upon her, sho sprang to i !i" m>!o of tiif Htrurturv' nml with ;i -cr<*nm jumped into tho docp water 20 feet below. “As tho llttlu girl’s form sank beneath tho watci 1 another flguro whistled through tho air. It was that big Urcmnu of mine. Ho bad seen tho child simultaneously with me and acting Instantly Imd jumped down between tho engino mid tender, and ns tho .girl sprang into tho water ho leaped nftor her. Owing to tho tcloclty of tho train his body whirled around like a ball beforo ho .struck tho water. My fireman had hardly disappeared under the water than the girl was seen several yards in front of hlin, but ho quickly cainu to tho aurfneo and struck out after her. Tho llttlo thing went down a second time, but as sho roso my fireman was by her side, and grasping bur firmly managed to reach tho shore al most exhausted. Wo immediately deserted tho special and rushed down to tho bank of tho river and yelled oncourngemcnt to tho bravo fellow. Aa hecaino out, pulling like a porpoise, wc gavo him three cheers nnd a tiger, and he only replied to it with tho remurk, ‘Christopher Columbus, but tlmt wator is coldl* K —Washington Star. Modesty* Modesty seems to bo tho least popular of tho virtues. Years ago Bttiwur Lytton wrot« a charming llttlo story of tho Vir- tuos starting out on a pilgrimage with tho aim of finding a home. Each Virtun had a hard time, but not ono of them mot with such serious experiences ns poor Modesty. Modesty traveled tho length- nnd breadth of London, vainly seeking refuge. No ono hnd ever heard of Modesty. Tho allegory applies at prosont. The tidni wave of real ism has made rough nailing for modesty. In literature, in tho drama, in life itself— civilized life, metropolitan llfo—moriosty has no home. Society, the Turkish bath and tho scashoro are tho three agents roost vigorous In exterminating tho divine vir tue. Ench in turn administers nn onrth- qunko shock to modesty as It dwolls with in tho nature of woman. Tho tempic of* modosty recovers from ono or two earth quake shocks, nnd after that as a dwelling it Is nonhabltable, and modesty moves out. I am looking for a refovm movement In this direction. Where is tho national Christian league that works persistently In tho interest of purity, and where is the Pinkertonlau Comstock that tho living pictures of tho .sensbora disturb not his droumsf Human cba.ms of u muterlal or der nra much lu vogue these days.
