THE STATE I! lit 11 ST RATION
The
Constitution, with its
usual enterprise, publishes the
registration 1i si from every
every county in the State.
Ihe total registration is
201 .366. Of these, the white
vote is 2U1.3".). and the colon d
Vote Stl.ns].
litis registration shows a
much larger number of quali
fied voters than has ever voted
in any previous election, and
is probably larger than the list
will l>o alter l»*ing thoroughly
silt*-cl by the boards ,-,f regis
trars.
In the State eb-otion two
years ago the total vote was
217.937. and in tin* Pn-snlen
tial election four years ago there

Gwinnett cono*; . sent» the
largest list of voters of any
county in the State in which
there arc no large cities, ex
cept Jackson and Carrol. Its
registered 1 : st shows I,IST>:
whites, 3,77)0; colored (31 .
The only counties in tin*
State that show a larger regis
tered list are: Carroll, 4,210;
Chatham, 0,024: Floyd. 4,653:
Fulton. 12,100; Richmond,
0.71t': Jackson, 1.>15-.
Chatham and Fulton are the
only counties t-hat have regis
tered more white voters than
Gwinnett.
While the registration list
shows this large number of le
gal voters, it is hardly probable
that more than 250,000 votes
will be cast, which will leave
10,000 people who fail to exer
cise the elective franchise.
The fact that they have gone to
the trouble of registering shows
that even those who do not vote
desire to guard their right.
Tin* consolidation of the
election of State and county
otlicers on the first Wednesday
in October will bring out a
much larger vote than was
polled at other elections.
FA lit ELECTIONS.
Everv honest man is in favor
of fair elections and an holiest
count. Li other words he is in
favor of the people ruling and
that an honest majority of vo
ters shall rule in State and Na
tional affairs.
A grout hue and cry has been
raised during this campaign
about fair elections ami yet we
have no doubt that in the main
the elections in Georgia have
been ns honestly e inducted as
in any state in the Cnion.
Frauds are the exceptions.
And now since the voters have
been registered in every county
there is no excuse for illegal vo
ting. and if competent man
agers are selected at the pre
cincts the returns will be sent
up to be consolidated in Mich
shape that there will be no ex
euse for throwing out districts.
We notice that in a large
number of counties the exentive
committees have agreed to di
vide managers between the op
posing parties, so that there
shall be for a lmwl,
after the election, of fraud.
This is right and shows a dispo
sition to give all voters, no mat
ter of what political organiza
tion. a fair opportunity to ex
press their choice.. ,

OS JANUARY. THE RYDER
CASE ENDED.
No eritninal case in Georgia
has attracted more interest all
over the state than tlial of l>r.
Ryder, who I 'has been on trial
over a week in Talbot county,
tortile murder id Miss Sallie
t (wens.
Th* high standing of tin* par
ti-. tin* c<>ld blooded delibera
vyith which the crime was
committed, the gtrung effort to
a ■ put him on the ground of in
sanity. all tended to enlist the
ib. |»-t interest in tile result.
Tin* evidence showed that Dr.
Ryder was deeply, ma llv infat
uated with Miss Owens and
that his love was not reciproca
ted. Tin* young lady, while
treating him as a friend, tried
in every, way to discourage and
get rid of his importunities.
She even refused to lie alone
with him any where hut he still
jiersisted and declard that she
some times made him mad
enough to kill.
Fired with envy, lie shot her
dead in the parlor where she
was visiting and then fled, hut
was seen and arrested. As
usual in such cases, he has been
playing the insanity dodge, hut
the indignation of the people
was so great that he had to be
carried to jail in Macon to pre
vent a moh from making quick
lwork with him.
On the trial he was represen
ted by the ablest lawyers he
could procure and they made a
desperate light to save his life.
First, they fought for a contin
uance, hoping delay would help
t heir case. The Judge prompt
ly overruled all these motions
and tin* case went to the jury.
A verdict of guilty, without
recommendation, was promptly
rendered and the sentence of
death pronounced.*
The condemned man was sent
to Columbus for safe keeping.
Ilis counsel have made a mo
tion for a new trial and will
probably prolong his days by
carrying the case to tin* Su
preme court.
.1. W. Church, an enteprising
newspaper man of Atlanta,
wanted to write up the police
svstem of arresting and punish
ing men found drunk on I lie
streets. He fitted himself up
with a suit of old clothes and
then played drunk until he was
arrested and lodged in the sta
tion house, plead guilty before
the recorder of being drunk on
the streets and was sent to the
stockade and rock pile, w here
he spent a day and night among
the sorry crowd who daily
wind up a debauch in prison.
He tells a doleful story of his
experience uml swears to it.
If his story is a-true descrip
tion of the way Atlanta treats
her prisoners, it is a disgrace to
Hie city. No wonder crime is
on the increase when boys are
m.nl • the associates of the most
hardened villiaiis in the city.
A new scheme to get two pen
sions from the government for
the same man is now on inves
tigation in the I'nited States
court.
It is claimed that Geo. W.
Taylor formerly of Fannin
County was a pensioner. He
left his family and settled in
Arkansas, whore he still enjoys
ttio benefits of the best govern
ment the world ever saw.
The scheme was that Mrs.
Taylor claimed to be tin* widow
of Geo. W. and that she was
assisted by her san-in law John
Kllis in proving that the old
man was dead and his lone wid
ow entitled to ‘‘draw.” But
the pension authorities made
enquiry and found that the or
iginal Ueo. W. was still in the
land of the living and the Geor
gia parties were arraigned be
fore the court bud requested to
give bond for their appearance
to answer any bill thegriuid ju
ry might find.
SENTENCED Foil LIFE.
At Lexington, S. C., 11. M.
llarmon was convicted of the
killing of J. (’. Canghman, hi*
sister’s sweet-heart, and sen
tenced for life in the peniten
tiary, His sister was the prin

guilty pair were together.
A NOTH Kit ASSASSINATION.
David Silver, a prominent
merchant of Sparta, was assas

by a negro named Butts. 'I in
negro shot him five times
Shilver’s brother was with him
and recognised the assassin.
BOLTER’S CONVENTION.
The bolting Democrats of
Georgia held a gold hug con
vention in Atlanta last Wed
nesday. Forty counties were
represented by seif-appointed
delegates, It was a very re
spectable body of men, who set
up a claim of being the only
t rue blue Ilemoerats.
The gist of speeches was the
eulogy of Cleveland and de

plat form.
An Executive committee was
appointed, and the following

Special to The Journal.
Blakely, Sept. 26. —Miss
Minnie Watson, a white orphan
girl, living with Mr. Joe Camp,
a highly respected farmer of
near Wamuck postoffice, was
the victim of an attempted as
sault by an unknown negro yes
terday afternoon, and but for a
timely interferei.ee the negro’s
purpose would have been ac-
complished.
Miss Watson and Mrs. Camp
had been washing at a spring
under a bluff. Mrs. Camp had
completed her task and had
gone to the house. Before de
parting she instructed Miss
WT'tson to gather up the articles
and follow as soon as she did sc .
Miss Watson was stooping ov
er preparatory to picking up the
clothes when she was struck on
the neck from behind and fell
ed to the ground. KJie was ten
dered almost unconscious by
the blow, but was able to (Hs
eern a burly mgro bending over
her and commanding her to keep
quiet at the peril of her life.
Heedless of consequences si e
screamed and struggled as best
she could, but was helpless in
the hands of the brute.
She had nearly given up all
hope of frustrating the brute,
but ns strength was leaving her
the voice of Mr. Camp who was
plowing directly over the spring
was heard to call out “Whoa!’’
to his horse as at that instant
he was passing the spot win r.*
the struggle was g-iipg on be
tween her and the black brute.
The negro, fearing he was ap
proaching the spot, planted a
tearful blow on Miss Watson’s
body amidisappeated.
As soon as M is- Watson re
covered sufficiently to walk she
reported the occurrence to Mr.
Camp, win. mimed lately organ
ized a searching party of liis
neighbors, if. he is caught,
which is very probable, and is
identified, lie will le* swung up
without, ceremony. The whole
community is w rousflit up over
the bold attempt.

CUT M Y COMMISSIONERS.
Eiutor Hkkai.ii: There are
two tickets in the field for the
office of County Commissioners.
There is uo office iif the county
that the people have a deeper
interest in than this board.
Ami therefore the matter should
lie very carefully considered be
fore any change is made.
The present board has .serve
fur four years. The members
arc all good business men, wlm
have the prosperity and well
fare of the County at heart.
This is shown by the prudent
manner in which they have
manage<l|our finances The tax
assessment you published last
week shows that they have only
levied thirty gents and four
mills on the hundred dollars
for county expenses for the next
yt*r.
There is not a county in Geor
gia that can mnkea better show
ing. The entire lax is only 7<‘>
cents, while nine out of ten
counties in the State run up to
lUO cents and many <>f them
more. Our neighbo- ing count y
of DcKulh has levied ifl.-lu <Hi
the hundred.
And yet with this small as
sessment our county has as
good pulic buildings and bridges
as any adjoining county and the
poor are provided for us well.
What is the use o f making
any change ? Cm the county
be liettered by turning out ex
perienced men who have man
aged your business well and
putting in an untried boa-d ?
We may make a mistake and
one that cannot be remedied
for lour years to come.
It has been charged that
more money is raised than nec
essary, but it wbl be seen from
life rep. rt of Hie Commissioners
that there is only a small sum
on hand. Every citizen knows
that when a county has good
credit and pays cash for its
work that our bridges can be
built for at least l’o per cent
less money than when contrac
tor* have to wait a year for the
money.
Mr Editor, as an old citiz.-i
of the county and a tax pay. r,
1 do not believe that the people
can do better than to re-elect
J I). Spence, J. T. I.amkiu, J.
T.Jordon, Dr. S. L. Hinton
and.). S. Dobbins. 1 am led
looking at this mutter from a
part i/an stand-point but consi
der the matter fur the best in
terest of the County and tin
people.

PROniBJJION. '
Editor Herald; In the last,
issue ** t your valuable paper I
notice an article headi d ‘■Pro
hibition,” Mini signed I. R.
Jackson. Mr. Jackson says, “J
would ask mv prohibition
friends, are they sure tlu v are
right on tins quest inn ? None
of us have a right to do wrong,”
etc. Mr. Jackson hail just as
well ask is It wrong to kill a
man or st*al ? Every man in
this county who has sense
enough to put on his hat knows
it is wrong to advocate the in
fernal traffic. Mr. Jackson
knows it is wrong, lie says
lurtlier, •'Do they think they
bav<* a right to hind us hand
and loot, and take away our
personal freedom in that way ?
I think very differently. ” Mr
Jackson and the devil are pre
cisely the same on this ques
tion; don’t know how they get
along on ot her quest ions. This
noted gentleman censures a
preach* r for calling whiakv ac
curs.'il stuff, and wants to know
where In- gets his authority for
calling it that. If Mr. Jackson
would go to the large cities and
see tlm destitution that reigns
in thousands of homes caused
hy* whisky he would not ask
where lie gets his authority for
calling it accursed stuff.
Whisky is an old relic of the
devil, aiid tho church that con
demns it will stand the storms
ot lile and do something for
good and tlm right; the church
that advocates the accursed
stuff, the nasty little trifling
thing ought to he blown away
hy a cyclone while all the mem
bers were in f he house.
Mr. Jackson says, “let him
read the 525th and 26th verses
of the 16th chapter of Deuter
onomy.’’ Now that chapter
hasn't but 22 verses in it, and
they don’t say one word about
whisky. Perhaps lie lias a re
vised Bible—a New Edition fel
low; or may it is in (ireir’s Al
manac. I guess it is chimney
corner scripture. If Mr. Jack
son will accept I will give him
a Bible—one of St. James t rans
lation—one that will teach him
to vote as he prays.
