—An announcement comes to The
News this week for thb state senate
that would astonish the natives
were i» to appear in these colunpns.
Our reasons are numerous for not
publishing same; one very good
and sufficient reason is the neces¬

company the announcement.
— Great fear is entertain id now that
the 10 per cent tax on state bank
circulation wiil not bo repealed
There can be no mistake that the'
democratic putty is pledged in the
simplest terms to repeal this in¬
iquitous burden and thus place all
securities ami citcnlatloos upon an
equal footing. If there has ever
been one single act of class legisla¬
tion to which the American people
have beer, subjected, this robber
bank tax is worthy the distinction.

AT TilE CAPITOL
From our regular Coemvoiulent.
Washington, June 4, 1894.
Senator Harris served notice on
the republican senators that his
stock of patience was getting low. ’
by lengthening the sittings of the
senate. It is not prooablo that he
will keep the senate in session la¬
ter than 8 or 9 o’clock at night for
the first few days, provided reason¬
able progress be m .de with the tar¬
iff bill, but he la prepared to put
the screws on even to the extent of
a continuous session, it it be neces¬
sary to do so. It is the general be¬
lief that the last fight of the repub¬
licans will be made o>i the sugar
schedule, and after that is adopted,
as it is certain to be, they will prob¬
ably a:ree to set a date for the fi¬
nal vote. It is expe to 1 that the
sugar schedule will he vote 1 upon
tomorrow, or the next day at the
latest.
Senator Gray was right when he
said that the senate investigiting
committee, of which ha is chair¬
man. had been misrepresente 1. It
certainly ha3 been. The commit¬
tee has been at work right along
trying to get at the bottom of the
scandalous charges made against
senators and members of th9 cab¬
inet, although the impression has
gone out, through Senator Hill’s
speech an 1 newspaper publications,
that after the committee reported
the two correap m leats to the sen¬
ate for having refused to give their
authority for charges, and repue-t-
ed the Vice President to certify, in
accordance with the law, th»ir cas¬
es to the U. S. I).strict A t > rnev
for presentment to th> Grin 1 Jury,
the committee had folded its arms
aud sat dow t to await the punish¬
ment of the recalcitrant witn sses.
Nothing could be further from
truth. Tne committee his taken
the testimony of every dem lonti:
member of the S mate Fman ;e com
mittee, of Secretary Cirlislo and of
Representative Warner, of N;-v
York, and several others a i I hi.
been diligent in its efforts to seeur--
the atten lance and t Isti u my of
other witnesses who thev h ive rea¬
son to suppose cm throw suns
light on the matters bsiag i i/esti-
gated. Senator Hill ie miking a
fight to get the senate to adopt a
resolution instructing the commit¬
tee to open its do >rs during the re¬
mainder of the iove-uiga'i >n, but
there isn’t much probability of his
success. It is custom iry for the
committees of the senate to regulate
their own sittings, the only case re¬
membered by any senator where a
contrary course was persued rning
when the senate directs I the com¬
mittee that was investigiting the
Credit Mibilier 6C md.il to do it
openly, instead of secretly as the
committee had began.
The scandal mong irs m i la a very
bad break several days ago when
they starte 1 a story th it Presi lent
Cleveland and Sec. C irlis'ie were at
loggerheads over the sen ite tariff
amendments. They were wide of
the mark. From the beginning of
the tariff legislation, President
Cleveland anh Secret irv Carlisle
have been in perfect accord. Id id
the aforesaid scandal mongers said
that Preiideat Cleveland and Sec
Carlisle were both verv sorry that
s one of the senate amendments
had been made to the tariff bill
they wool I have been in ciose prox
imity to the truth.
The fight ever tlie repeal of the
tax on state bulk currency is grow¬
ing verj T warm in the house. Those
who favor repeal have been from
the first confi lent of succeeding,
and their confi lence was strength¬
ened by the ease w.th which they
defeated a motion to switch off re¬
peal by taking up other business.
The vote is going *o be close on
this question and the result will, in
your correspondent's opinion, be in
doubt until the vote is officially
announced.
If the western silver men in con¬
gress know the sentiments of their
constituents ex-speaker Reed has
gained no western support for his
presidential aspirations by his pro¬
ds motion, via London, in favor of
silver, provided, that the friends of
silver will join him in favoring a
high tariff. Mr. Heed’s attempt to
combine the silver aud tariff'que.--
tions was a very clever bit of polit-
cal ju'glei ,r , but it has not helped
him along even a little oit toward?
tne presidential nomination of bis
party, although it has removed the
mask ho has heretofore worn and
placed hitn squarely before the
country as a oaudidate for the none-
ination.
Mrs. Cleveland and the children
will leave Washington this week
for Gray Gables, where they will
spend the summer. President
Cleveland will remain at the White
Heme until congress adjourns, but
will try to spend a day or two with
his family occ asionally. Saturday
was the eight anniversary ol the
marriage of President Cleveland.
There was no formal celebration of
it, hut a verry pretty little incident
occuro i in connection theiewiib j
upon the rear portico of the White
House. Tne leader of the Marine
band, which was playing its regular
Si.tu.-dav afternoon concert in the
White House grounds, had in com.
plunent to the day selected a wed¬
ding march as at the first piece of
music on the programme. As soon
as President Cleveland, who was on
the portico with Mrs. Cleveland
and the children recognized thei
wedding march ho stooped over and
tenderly kissed the baby.

—There are about eighty armed
whiteoaps hiding out in the piney
woods of Marion County, Miss., re-
sisting all attempts at arrest and
b.oodshed is expected.
—It is unofficially stated that the
present administration does not fa¬
vor another bond issue. There is
evidently no urgent necessity fer
it.

FOK STATE SENATOR.
To the voters of the 15th. senato¬
rial district: I hereby announce
nryself a candidate for the State
Senate at the election to be held
Oct. 4th. 1894, and earnestly solicit
the votes of the district. If elected
will serve the people to the best of
my knowledge and ability.
Sincerely,
Geo. K. Wilcox.
Judge Hid on the Wing.
Long live Clarke II jwell and the
Atlanta Constitution. Not because
it is 1 or Uenerul Evans, but it gives
the news of the country and does
not agree with President Cleveland
ou the veto ot the Rand bill.
I atn not, going to be side-tracked
or ditched, but am going to stay in
the democratic party, f will vote
for Mr. Atkinson as cheerfully as
any mar, in Georgia if he gets the
nomination; but, I don’t think it
is justice to pass these retolutions
indorsing President Cleveland and
denouncing the Atlanta Constitu¬
tion.
Mr. Editor, I now refer to a few
items iu Editor Smith’s columns:
first whtre he says, “filled with de¬
ceit, self-esteem and vanity.”
Where is there in Irwin, Worth, in
tiie Suite of Georgia, the United
States or Canada, a man with more
se'f -esteem, deceit find vanity than
Editor Smith, of the Ashburn Ad-
vance? Now where lie says ‘ no
woman with enough of beauty to
go meeting can afford to trust her
with a man who writes such
letters as Hill’s on the wing, Mr
Editor, where is a woman in all of
this country who has more sympa¬
thy— tnd that justly—than that
noble,and good woman, Mrs. E iitor
Smith? Just tninfe of what a mis¬
take women do make sometime;
land this was one ot the very worst,
jin another part of his paper he
lays: “we suggest that W. W. Hill
lave ilia on the wing s in the Ir-
tin County News copyrighted.”
j The Editor of the Advance will
t|ink, liiow and not only think, but
that the patent is an all
right thing; no improvement nec¬
essary, and I will go about it as
soon ap Albert Hatcher gets done
his crop, as I am going to get hnn
to make the n odel. Iam going
t > have it made on the hame-foot
style, but before I send it to the
pateut office I will have Albert to
carry it to Ashl tirn, where it will
be jo n exhibition until after Sept.
at Walker’s,,as tuat is the most
public placejin Aihburn, as that is
the place to get cool drinks, and it
will be a wijmingcard for Mr. Wat-
ker, as every body will want to see
it without previous jregaid to party creed,
color or condition of ser¬
vitude. I vfiil|"»e oj hen i if pos-
si Die, as ma,ny as three days in each
month to lecture and explain, and
will have ajgoodjcrowd all the time
if they are, in Ashburn, but you
may depeid on it. this will be a
free exhibition. I will refer am!
take special n itico later where Ed¬
itor Smithisays, “we are the peo¬
ple— W. V. Hill and a tomb stone.”
E liter Smith will wish that he ha i
not said tnythin t about that, part
until he gi.s hack from congress.
