THE COUNTY ELECTION.
Although Nearly Forgotten, It Will Be
Hold on the First Wednes
day in Janaary,
SOME LITTLE OPPOSITION.
H Will Be ill* Lilt EUtllon for Homo
Tint* to Como, and Iho Pooplo
of Bibb CoMly Will Bo Clod
Wii*n It H All Or*r.
In Ibo afterglow, aa It weTe, of the
recerft municipal election nnd the busy
Christmas time, the people of Macon
nnd Bibb foive atntfwt entirely forgot
ten that another election in right upon
theme
Tbe approaching election is for coun
ty officer*, and it wiff bo held on
Wednesday. Jan. 2, or a little l «a than
two weeks. Tho election will bo for aJl
couoty trfllconf, except ordinary and
county commissioners,
<S ) fdr us known, tho only ofllccs that
will be contested for will bo ’those of
sheriff.und coJ'onor. Mr. Sam Wcstcott,
the present incumbent, is the regular
Democratic nominee for the office. Hla
opponent will bo Mr. H. F. Hotder, who
will run independent. Mr. Frank L.
Knight, the pre»ini coroner, to the
Democratic nomduee for «h© office of
coroner, but will have opposition in
the person of Mr. W. W. lIen<leroon.
Tho other offices -will be filled by tho
following nmrtfn.os, who will have no
opposition.
For clerk superior court. It. A. Nis-
bet.
For tax receiver, It. J. Anderson.
For itax collector, Albert Jones.
For durveyor, a. S. Birch.
Ordinary Wiley huo made out the pa-
pera, and baa them r^ady for the elec
tion. l\ie managers of the election will
be tho earns as those in ’the primary,
una the same rules will govern tils elec
tion.
The election promises to be a very
quiet one, owing to ths lack of serious
opposition to the regular nominee*, and,
besides, the people of tlija community
are 'tired of elections. They h-aive had
enough of them in the past year to
kicst film* for many years to conic, and
feel that the country will be better
off when they are all over. The ap-
pruadhlngcouuty election, however,
will bo tho Mist held in this com
munity Cur a long time, and alter It Is
over the pooplo will nettle down to
buMnese uud unite fur the good of all.
Nothing cau moro completely divide a
peoplo or oven a family than politics,
and the last several campaigns willed
In 'tills county t\avo divided flip people
more than they have ever been divided
before. The fortunate outcome of the
recent nldcrmanlc election, however,
did much to o*>se the breach t'iiai had
been credited, aud now that t'h? people
are almast solidly united, they will
dmy united aud vote for the straight
ticket in the coming January election.

HR. DANNENBERG RESIGNS.
His Resignation Tendered Yesterday
to Go Into Effect at
Once
GIVES HIS SEASONS THEREFOR
To tin all Sqooro Park Had Botblngto
Do With It, bat tho Work of the
Board Took Vp Too Uwch
of Ilia Time,
Mr. J. Dann©nb©r£, chairman of tbe
board of public* works, ha« resigned
from the board.
Mr. Dannenberg’s resignation was
tendered early yesterday morning, with
the request thst it take effect alt one;*,
and aa there uaa been little or no har
mony between Mr. Dannenberg and the
other members of the board, there fc*
n> question about the acceptance ot
h!a roslgna'tion.
Mr. Daruii-nberg'a reslgnatlqn will be
learned by tile public with great sur
prise/ as it is remembered' that he posi
tively deoClned to resign when by reso
lution tbs dty council soma time ago
asked him to do 00. Ho suited then
that ho would not resign, but things
havo changed. Only half of the coun
cil* -that o«ked him to resign are now
In office, and Mr. Dannenberg does not
feel that lie la gratifying those who
ashed him io resign.
For some reason Mr. Dannonberg'o
resignation wua kept ao exceedingly
<lulct yesterday that very few knew
of it, and 'ihh» fuinouncemlnt of it will
be read with surprise even l)y many
of die city officials, who ar« supposed
to know all that is going on.ia city
flffans, but that It h a fact the Trie-
graph has Mr. Dasmenbeffg's own
Statement.
While noshrg about 'tho city hall
yesterday a Telegraph reporter heard
Just t*ho faintest rumor that it was
probatfc? that Mr. Djmnenbcrg had re
signed, or Would resign. Without wait
ing .further, as no 00c about the hall
i^epied to know any'tlilng, or if they
did they, were” not inclined to talk, the
reporter oouitfit Mr, IXunn -nberg at hla
store on # i/hlnd street, and a^ked him
if it was true that he hud resigned
from the hoard of public works, and
Mr. Dannenbepg unhesitatingly replied
that bn had.
"Mr. Daiwumfcerg, have you any ob-
Jectkww to stating your reasons for re
signing?” naked tile reporter.
'M'htive no objections whatever,'* re
plied Mr. Danncnhcrg. "It required
too much of my dm© to be a member
of tht board, and I have contemplated
re«JgnIng for a long time. As far back
as last summer, when 1 was in New
York I had my resignation written
out, but afterwards decided to wait
until a now council was elected tlo ra-
sl'tu. and at tho request of Mayor
Hfttae and many of my *frleod» I re
mained a member much against my
wklics. No man shtnild be a mcmb?r of
the ii^ard of publlo works who cannot
give lilu entire time to it."
"Then, Mr. Dannetvberg, the improve
ment of Tattnall square park over your
protest had nothing to do with orour
resignation?"
"Tho park had nothing to. do; with it.
'fund. In fact, the work on the {park la
carrying out my Ideas exactly. I have
no compkidnt to make about the park,
and It had nothing to do with my ac
tion. The city, however, ha.s' n*> money
to spend. You havo no Idseu of the con
dition 'tilings aro In, and I wanted too
got out of it."
Mr. Danncnberg had no com pin In t to
miko against Mws, Wan' ani Ellis
tho other two public works commis
sioners, but it was evident from 7 hla
remarks that h> would not tot the old
bjard of aldtrmen havo 'the privilege
of electing his sucooeHor.
Mr. Datincmberg’rt resignation leilVea
not owe of tho original public vyorka
ODmmlR«lori!*ts named In the new char
ter tiiat went into effect one year ago.
Tho original board was composed .of
J. Dannenbera chairman; J. N. Uazlo-
hurst nnd Virgil Dowers. Mr. Fowvto
dial, and Mr. Wlllfcam Leo Eflls was
elected his suceetwoc; Mr. Harlehurst
resigned to become superintending en
gineer for tho sewer contractors, nnd
Mr. T. J. Ware was elected his buc-
C'flaor. Who (Mr. Danncnberg's cuccco-
sor will bo Is not known, but he will
probably bo elected by council on next
Tuesday nlJPht.

MERCER'S LAW SCHOOL.
A Debating 8oclety Organised Among the
Students of This School.

meeting wa« held yesterday when the fol
lowing officers were elected: President,
J. M. Strickland; vlce-peslilent, M. II.

nouf.
A challenge to the Ciceronian society of
the University for a Joint debate was Is
sued and tho Clccronlana very promptly
accepted It. This debate will take place
some thn© in February. 1895, the exact
date not yet having been agreed upon.
Tho subject, however, has been agreed
upon, but will not he made public until
the night of he debate. Roth sides are
hard at work reading everything bearing
on the subject, and when the debate takes
place something unusually good may be
expected, »s both societies will be rep
resented by gentlemen who have nude
reputations In the college as speakers.
The Ciceronian society will be repre
sented by Messrs. Moncrtef. Napier and
Astern, while the law school's interest,
will be looked after by Messrs. Ayer,
Conner and Mar trie.
The debate wlQ.be public and the date,
as soon as agreed upon, will bo published

THE LAST DAY.—Yesterday was the
loot, dfay for poiying atate and county
taxes, but many people stem to have
forgotten it, us Tax Colleotdr Albert
J'jnce’ books show (that many taxpiyeru
are dalUnquent. It Is not a pliamrat
duty for the tax collector to issue exe
cutions. but he io compelled to conform
to the law, and people could avoid all
thin 'trouble by paying ifcheCr taxes
promptly. Tax Collector Jones nays he
hus not collected as much taxes os he
had list year up to the 20.h, which la
