SENATORIAL RACE.
The Senatorial race which be
gun last Tuesday in the Legis
lature was the all-absorbing
topic last week.
There were six entries: Gov.
Atkinson, Capt. E. P. Howell,
A. S. (’lay, J, W. Robertson,
G»*n’l. Evans and Hal Lewis.
It was predicted at the outset
that the Governor would sweep
the field on the first or second
Ini Hot. This lie failed to do,
and the ballot showed that no
man had a majority. The av
erage vote was 172, which re
quired that the successful can
didate should receive 87 votes.
From the start tip- race seem
ed to he between Howell, At
kinson and Clay', they being the
highest on every ballot; their
strength ranging from 45 to
about 58, Clay leading. It
w >uld have been in the power
of either one of them, if he
could have controlled his fol
lowing, to have ended the con
test, by throwing his vote to
one of the others. Rut day
after day, as the caucus met,
the vote showed substantially
the same, although on some
ballots the number of votes re
ceived bv each aspirant changed.
After a day or two Gen’l.
Evans was withdrawn, then
Col. Robertson threw up the
sponge and shook the dust of
the Kimball house from his
feet.
Mr. Hal Lewis’ friends still
stood by him until he said there
was no probability of an elec
tion with four men in the field,
and the friends of each sticking
to him like a leech. Then In*
called a meeting of his friends
and in a patriotic letter with
drew from the contest and left
for home.
This seemed to simplify mat
ters somewhat, and as only
1 hr* andidates were left, it
was supposed that somebody
would be nominated, but tile
first caucus showed that they
were about as far fiom a nomi
nation as they had been with
six in the field. Steve Clay's
vote climbed up and Howell
advanced his lines toward the
goal, while Atkinson about
held his own. Friday Gov
Atkinson, at the solicitation of
frit-iids. retired from the race,
and in his speech recognized
the fact that the people of the
State did not want another
election for Governor, hut sug
gested that a primary' be held
to determine who was the choice
of the people.
This was manifestly so im
proper that no etl'ort was made
to carry his suggestion into
effect. The law requires the
Legislature to commence bal
loting on the second Tuesday
after il assembles and continue
until a choice is made. It
would have been simply ridicu
lous for the Legislature to have
abandoned the work of legisla
tion which they were sent there
to do and daily gone through
with a sham ballot, waiting for
n primary to settle the ques
tion, while they set there like
mummies until a hotly con
tested primary should dispose
of a matter that they had been
commissioned to perform—that
is, the election of a Senator
from Georgia to succeed (Jen’h
Gordon.
Had the Democratic party
adopted such puerile tuetics, il
would have been in order IVr
tile people to have asked them
to resign.
But no such folly was at
tempted, and the caucus pro
ceeded to ballot for a candi
date.
It was supposed that with
only two men in the-field a
nomination would certainly be
he made at the next caucus,
hut it was not.
For si me reason Mr. Lewis
name was again, and against
his express protest, put in the
race, and lie received a respeet
ahle vote, while other members
threw their votes away on men
who were not candidates.
The thirtieth and last ballot
taken in caucus was:
Cluy 77
Howell 57
Lewis 2<i
Garrard 7
H.G. Turner. 4
171
There was method in this
scheme, ami its evident purpose
was to defeat a nomination and
stave off an election until next
week, which was done, and the
caucus adjourned until Monday
at *1 o’clock,
The question is, at whose in
stance was it done ? Alter
nearly a week’s waste of time
wii ihe part of the Legislature,
Clay only lacked ten votes and
Howell 51(1 votes of an elcctiou.
\\ by was Col. Lewis’ name
thrust back on the caucus oyer
his solemn protest ? Was it to
prolong the contest indefinite
ly? Was there a small minor
ity there who s. night to defeat
any nomination ? These are
questions that are being asked
on all sides. We are r-,ot able
to answer; perhaps the men
who forced these outside men,
who were not candidates, in the
race can explain.
Thus one week of legislation
is practically lost. For until
this election is over but little
will be done in either House.
This is the proceedings of a
caucus.
Now, as to the Legislature.
The body has been in session
since the 28th day'of October.
About twenty days of the fifty
allowed for this session have
expired; and but little in the
w ay of legislation accomplished.
The people are taxed at about
the rate of a thousand dollars
a day for this fun.
As the law requires the Gen
eral Assembly to begin ballot
ing on the 2nd Tuesday after it
assembles, and continue from
day to* day, the two Houses
have met in joint session each
day and gone through a sham
ballot, each man voting for
some friend with the avowed
purpose of wasting time and
arriving at no result until the
caucus should tell tln*m what
to do.
If there is anything that will
force the people to demand that
the elect ion of Judges, Solicit
ors and Senators shall be sub
mitted to popular vote and be
settled in one day, it is these
prolonged elections in the Leg
islature.
This is the status of allairs
in the Senatorial race up to
this writing. If the caucus
this evening <>r the session to
morrow morning shall cut tin
Gordian knot we.will give Ihe
final result.
nil: CONVENTION MEETS
TO-MORROW.
The State Democratie con
vention will assemble in Atlan
ta tomorrow to nominate four
Judges of the Supreme court.
There an- eight or ten candi
dates for the ollicc of Associate
Justice. The most prominent of
them are, Judge Hopkins of
Fulton, Hon. W. A. Little of
Muscogee, Joel Rmnhalll of
Rome, Judge Gober of Mariet
ta, Judge Fish, Judge Kiddo,
Judge Samp Harris, Andrew J.
Cobb, Col. Gannlil of Augusta,
and several others.
There is no opposition to
Judge Lumpkin to succeed him
self, but the race will be for
the places of the new judges.
The four Democratic candi
dates will at once enter tin
race.
The Populists will probably
have one or two men in 11n
field, while the gold standard
Democrats have, through their
Executive committee, denounc
ed the nomination und will
probably vote for an indepen
dent,.
THE CHILD ACQIITTKD.
A remarkable trial lias been
going on in l’aulding Superior
court last week. Mrs. Jarman,
a girl only II years old, but
who was married lust spring,
bus been on trial fo* her life.
She was charged with poising
the Jarman family. Her hus
band is only 17 years old, ai.d
is rather a wild fellow.
One day last March Georg.
Jarman and his wife went to
Dallas, leaving the young bride
to get dinner. Among other
tilings they hud coffee and all
who drunk of the coffee, seven
in number, were poisoned.
Mary, a two year old child,
died’.
The young woman was ac
cused of putting rough-on-rats
in the coffee, and on a number
of suspii i.ms circumstances was
indicted by the grand jury.
The trial created intense inter
est in the county, and great
crowds Hocked to hear the casi
The young girl seemed calm
and self reliant, and stood tin
ordeal well. Pile jury returned
u verdict of not guilty. There
is a feud now bet ween her peo
ple, the Barrows, and the fami
ly of tier husband, and she de
clares she will not live longer
with him.
THANKSGIVING.
Governor Atkinson has issued
his prisdamatiou appointing
Thursday the 2(sth as a day of.
thanksgiving of Georgia.
IT DJI) NOT GO IT. ]
Many of our farmers were
told that if .McKinley was elec
ted business would be brisk and
a returning wave of prosperity
would strike the country that
would sweep awav hard times.
Has the defeat of free silver
helped anybody'? Go ask tin
farmer who held his cotton un
til after the election hoping to
see it bounce to ten cents, and
now that the election is over
and the gold standard has suc
ceeded, sees the price go down,
down.
Here it is the middle of No
vember and three-fourl hs of tin
crop on the market and the
price going down until it may
Teach six cents.
A few factories may have
started up and the usual flush
of business that conies with tin
fall and tin-sale of the cotton
crop, but let.nobody be deceived.
Next year will be a harder
one than 1.895, if we are not
mistaken in the signs of the
times. A little spasmodic ad
vance is not permanent pros
perity.
J. F. Shatiklin, of Rome,
took out a life insurance policy
in the sum of SB,(XX) and paid
twenty' semi-annual install
ments. In May 1898 he became
unable to transact business and
bis installments were not paid.
He died without recovering his
sanity. His family sued for
the insurance and alledged the
insanity as cause for allowing
the policy to lapse.
The I nited States court held,
last week, that his family were
not entitled to recover any
thing. The company refused
toy'waivo the forfituiv.
Men who engage i-i life insur
ance should be extremely care
ful if they do not desire to be
defrauded out of the insurance
1 hey coni raet for.
so the first, jdace they should
read and study 1 he policy before
they apply'. They should ex
amine the r--s|Hinsibility of the
company.
Tin- insurance company is
very careful to see that no gaps
are left down by which they
can be defrauded, ami the in
sured should bo equally as care
ful to provide against unjust
t real nn-nt at the hands of the
company.
THE Jl RY DID NOT RE
LIEVE HER.
The most sensational trial
that has occurred in South Car
olina for years ended in York
villn last'wi ek. Mrs. Anderson,
her 'brothers, Luckie and lleese
the ipurder of Williams. Mrs
Anderson and her husband had
asperated and Williams, of
Georgia, was her sweetheart.
He went to Yorkvillo to see her
and while there was murdered.
The parties named were put on
their trial. There was no evi
dence that Mrs. Anderson was
guilty, but a great sensation
was produced on her taking the
stand, where she confessed that
she did the murder and shot
Williams because he caused her
ruin. The other parties she
stated knew that she had com
mitted the crime hut took no
part in it.
The jury returned a verdict
finding her not guilty, and Lue
kee and. It -esc guilty. They
I evidently did not believe h>*r
confession.

Another mysterious murder
has occurred near Atlanta.
Waters was brutally
murdered last Tuesday while
out hui ting near the old water
works, jliree or four miles
south of Atlhuta. Waters lmd
gone hun'ing that day and
failed to return. His body was
found in a branch where it .had
been dragged by his "murderers.
Ills faithful flog remained with
him at d it was his harking that
caused the discovery of tin
body.
Three negroes, George For*

crime but the evidence is only
circumstantial. Waters was

his remains were carried fm
