The South Carolina victory goes to
Tillman, and with him the full reform
ticket waa elected. The returna are
Hjrmail, postage paid, or de* not ypt &11 in, but Hhoppard’s majority
10 cvnta a wwk or « uettu a j n the cities waa so email aa to give
Tillman an overwhelming majority
when the returns from the country
precincta, where hia main strength
Ilea, are all In. His majority this time
will not be so great as last time, but
this was an election strictly within
party lines, while In the last race Till
man's opponent ran aa an Indepen
dent. The conservatives concede the
election to Tillman but claim to have
elected three congressmen.

people of Hamburg have been stricken
with terror at the alarming inorease
In the number ot deathsand new cases
at that port. Up to date the total
number of deaths in Russia alone Is
snfcly estimated at 150,000. The United
State* government has provided the
strictest quarantine' regulations and
there Is, practically, no danger of the
disease entering this country.
An American and an English vessel
were seized by a Russian man-of-war
for sealing in waters near Russia,
whloli were, however, considered as
neutral. They were compelled to sign
a contract tjiat they would not catch
seals any more within 1,000 miles of
Russia, and were then Imprisoned on

to his Third Party opponent In the
Fifth to meet him on the stump. Col.
Taliaferro, his opponent, will likely
accept, and the political circles in the
Fifth will see some lively times.
Col. Peek, I he Third Party candidate
for Governor, Is making a vigorous

every day, sometimes twice a day. He
Is now in Southeast Georgia, lint ft ap

VOOE, OR KNAVl
George William Curtis is dead. He
Is the well-known journalist and ora
tor who began the department of “The
Editor’s Easy Chair’’ In Harper’s
Monthly, and was, at the time of his
death, the editor of Harper’s Weekly.
Ho was a strong ndvooate of olvll ser
vice reform, and up to 1884 was a
stanch Republican. At that time he
supported Cleveland nnd has been a
Democrat ever since.
Positive news comes from Rome
that Hon. Seab Wright will be in the
rnoa for Congress in the Seventh Dis
trict. •
Ho will run as an Independent, but
It is expected that lie will reeeive the
Indorsement of the Third Party, and
will have Dr. Felton to help him
stump the distriot. This will give him
a|strong prestige in thorace, hut Judge
Maddox Is not at all nlnrmcd, though
he will make a thorough canvas#of tho
district.,
v.' **•
. In liis speech at Rome Tuesday Judge
Crisp made soverAI splendid hits. His
argument was sound and convincing.
Among other thing* be said:
“Since the war there has been but
one Democratic Congress—the forty-
sixth—but wo wero swindled out of
the Presidency. What did that Con-
gross'do? They passed a bill, the
pratloal effect of which would have
been to (destroy the national banks,
bat It did ndt become a law. President
Hayes vetoed it. There has never been
a financial measure before Congress
that the Democrats did not vote with
the people, and for the interest of the
people."
GeorglaVtax rate will 6b 4.8(1 mills
for this year.
Tho rate was fixed Tuesday by Gov
ernor Northed and Comptroller Gen.
oral Wright.
The state haa to raise $2,246,000 by
taxation tills year, and It has $402,000,-
000, in round numbers, to levy taxes
on. To determine the rate was a
question of division.
Of the total taxable property, $42,-
000,000 is returned by railroads and
street railways. Three counties have
not made their returns—Chattooga,
Dougherty and Sumter—but last year
they returned $12,284,000, which, added
to the $408,007,000 returned for tills
year by the other 184 counties, makes
$420,000,000 of taxable property exclu
sive of the railway property.
LhBt year the tax was 6.08 mills on
the dollar. The rate for tills year is
.28 of n mill, or nearly a quarter of a
mill, less than last year.
Peck, the Labor Commissioner of
New York State, must be cither a fool
or a knave, even if he was appointed
by Grover Cleveland and olaiins to be
a Democrat.
11c has recently sent out to the press
what he ia pleased to call a summary
of his ninth annual report of the “Bu
reau of Statistics of _ Labor.” As a
statistical document it Is not worth the
paper it Is printed on. It is milling
more nor Icsb than a jumble of guesses,
wliloh Is given to the world in con-
tlrmatlon of the Republican olnlin of
the favorable effect of the McKinley
tariff on labor and wages.
A fool or a knave In charge of a
bureau of statistics Is worso than a
bull in a oblna shop. With Porter to
fix up our qensus, Peck to arrange the
figures on “labor and Wages,” and
suah Republican organs ns the Chica
go Inter Ocean and New York 'Times
to make deductions from the figures
furnished, there la nothing more to be
done III the' way of elaborate misin-
formatlon.

Tho case of Mrs, Maybrlek, who was
convicted of poisoning her husband in
England, has been brought promi
nently before the publio again. This
time it is the appeal of some of the
moat prominent women In this coun
try to the Queen for executive clem
ency. This petition contains the
names of Mrs. Harrison and Mrs.
Blaine, nnd will, it is thought, have
some weight.

him and Wilson, his Negro henchman.
A lot of campaign circulars are being
issued from headquarters showing
how he defeated the claim of Chas. D.
Bradwell in Congress. Brndwell is a
worthy colored man, and his claim was
a just one. It would hnve pasted had
it not been for the strenuous opposi
