The Carolina campaign may
end in a duel between Mcl.au
ren and John Cary Kvans.
Kvans publicly stated that
unless Mcl.auren stuted that he
did not authorize or endorse the
publications of his committee
be would hold him perse nally
responsible.
Mcl.auren in a published
card assumes the responsibility
of everything that has been
published.
Now, John Uary knows what
Jje has to Jo,
THE OUTLOOK GROWS
‘ BRIGHTER.
Reports from all sections of
the State represent the crop
outlook as very encouraging.
The Atlanta Journal last Sat
urday published letters from
different sections of the State
as to the present, condition of
the corn and cotton crops, and
all of them agree in represent
ing the prospect as very good.
Bradstreet. and Dun’s com
mercial agencies represent that
the prospects are very encour
aging, There is the smallest
stock on hand for seven years.
In spite of local damages, the
estimate is that we will market
this fall the largest crop ever
known. The crop of 1894 was
estimated at 9,873,000 bales.
It is confidently believed that
this year’s crop will go over
ten million.
The question that now at
tracts public attention is the
price. While the large crop
indicates a low price on the
principle of supply and demand,
it is believed that the price will
not go as low as it did several
years ago. If our farmers can
get 7cts they may be satisfied.
The corn crop is about ma
tured, and nothing but freshets
destroying the crops on low
lands, as was done last, year, is
likely to reduce the yield.
The demand for wheat and
corn for foreign exports, it is
believed,will keepup fair prices
This is shown by the demand
for wheat in the last 30 days
and the rapid advance in prices
But there are other import
ant crops to this section of the
State which promise well. We
refer to sweet potatoes, peas,
sorghum, turnips and hay. The
August rains have made a won
derful improvement in all these
crops. And they aggregate an
immense sum in value.
The hay crop is too much
neglected. On every farm
enough hay can be saved to
winter the stock, if properly
gat In-red and housed.
I’lIK QUESTION.
Tliis question seems to be
looming up as the most im
portant matter to come before
the next Legislature.
It will only be a short time
until the present lease of State
convicts will be ended, and the
question is to be settled, what
will be done with them?
The Governor spent consid
erable time last summer in vis
iting the several camps of the
State and the prisons of other
States, and he probably recom
mend some plan.
Besides the penitentiary con
victs, there are about o<Kl mis
demeanor convicts who are in
charge of private parties or
leased to counties. Special
agent Byrd, who has been in
vestigating these private camps,
lias just made his report to the
Governor, and some of these
camps lie characterizes as dis
graceful, and a shame upon the
State. There is nobody to over
look the lessees, and their in
human treatment is roasted in
plain language.
The penitentiary committe of
the Legislature, which, by the
way, is composed of about half
the body, has been summoned
to meet in Atlanta on the 21st
of September for the purpose
of taking the whole matter un
derconsideration and preparing
a hill to cover the entire ques
tion of punishment of both
classes.
THE CONTEST ENDED.
The red-hot political cam
paign which for two mouths
has linen going on in South
Carolina for the office of Sena
tor closes today.
The race has been narrowed
down to four aspirants: Sena
tor J. L. McLauren, Ex-Senator
J. L. M. Irby, Ex-Governor
John Gary Evans and John T.
Duncan.
Tho campaign was hot from
tlm sturl, and McLauren was
the target at which the other
three fired. Hu stood his ground
gamely until taken sick, ami
bus not I men on the stump for
two weeks.
The candidates visited and
spoke in every county in the
State, and the public excite
ment is at white heat. But
today will close the coutest.aiel
it is pretty generally conceded
that McLauren will get, the ma
jority. Whoever is nominated
in this primary will be elected
by the Legislature now in ses
sion to till the place so long
honored by Geu’l. Wade Hamp
ton.
LOWER TAXES.
If there is any one thing upon
which the people are united it is
in favor of lower taxes. And if
there is any one thing that our
Legislatures and law makers
seem to enjoy it is to increase
the taxes.
At every session of the Geor
gia Legislature there are a doz
en new schemes to increase the
public burdens under one pre
text or another.
At the last session an effort
was made to increase the school
fund about $400,000, but the
Governor has decided to let this
go over to next year. A large
appropriation will have to be
made to complete the payment
of SOO pensioners. On account
of shortness of funds the Exec
utive had to split that in half
in order to make it go round.
How many more schemes will
be presented to add to the tax
rate cannot be anticipated.
The idea now in State and
municipal affairs is to increase
the amount of tax the people
have to pay each year.
In some counties the tax this
year will be from $1.25 $1,40.
This is a heavy burden upon the
people. While everything else
is going down in value, the taxes
keep climbing up.
ANOTHER SUICIDE.
Last Saturday morning at 2
o’clock Geo. W. I’arrott, a prom
inent young business man of
Atlanta, committed suicide at
his home in that city,
He was a son of G. W. Par
rott, the banker, and grandson
of W, 1). Fain, well known in
the Southern part of Gwinnett.
He was only 28 years old,
and had married only eleven
months ago. The cause of this
desperate act was financial loss
es in business speculation.
Only two or three years ago
he started life with about SOO,-
(XX); his father was wealthy and
his wife owned considerable
property. By unfortunate ven
tures in speculation he list
about all he had, and decided
that life was not worth living.
And yet he had youth, energy
and fine opportunities to start
out and successfully battle
with the world. But he
could not bear the idea of
having made such a failure, and
tbus came the end.
Thousands of young men all
over the land who have raised
up in comparative poverty and
have learned to rely on them
selves, are making an honorable
record. Failure does not dis
courage or disaster daunt them.
This is not the first of the
lamentable suicides of young
men with bright prospects be
fore them in the capital city.
Poverty is not disgrace is a
Jesson that young men and
boys should learn. It is some
times a blessing. It puts the
ambitious man on his metal,
and brings out the latent re
sources of his nature. It makes
a man of him.
THE FIG HT*W Alt MS UP.
The fight over the removal of
the court house in DeKalb coun
ty is getting warm. Both sides
are canvassing the county for
names to their petition to the
Legislature. The Decatur peo
ple were entrapped by a wrong
construction of the law and let
the election go by default,w hile
Stone Mountain hustled for
votes,
Tlie Legislature will pass on
the question, and in order to
give that body information as
lo the real sentiment of the
county, these petitions are be
ing circulated.
It is stated that Will Hender
son, one of the members from
that eoiiuty, is in favor of the
change; Col Morrison, the oth
er member, is waiting to get the
sentiment of the county.
Decatur claims that she ul
ready has ItKXI names, and that
this is one-third of the voters.
There will he a big wrangle
alien the bill comes u|i for ac
tion.
KIMJCU ms" WIFE.
Will Harper, of Carroll coun
ty, sled and killed his wife last
Wednesday morning. He
claims that it was accidental
hut the facts do not sustain his
statement und the coroner’s
jury returned a verdict that lie
was guilty of murder.

rye 825,1100,000 und potatoes

They look to America as their
source of supply to make up
this deficiency.
ABOUT PUBLIC SCHOOS.
Col. W. S. West, a member
of the Legislature, made a
speech recently before the State
book commission in which he
presented some startling fig
ures.
He estimates that there are
700,000 children in Georgia of
school age, but only 4<X),000 of
them attend the public schools.
This leaves out 8(M),000 who,
from poverty, do not get the
benefit yf the free school sys
tem. He estimates that the
average cost of school books to
each scholar is $1.50, or SOOO,OOO
annually expended for books
alone, and that the average
profits on these books is 125
per cent.
Thus it is that we are com
polled to pay an enormous trib
ute to the school trust. This
is worth looking into by the
Georgia Legislature.
OFF FOR THE KLONDIKE.
A vessel has just arrived from
Alaska and the Klondike gold
regions, at Seattle with thir
teen miners. They have been
lucky and are returning to en
joy the result of their hard work
in that, frozen region. They
bring with them $575,(XX) in
gold dust.
These reports are awakening
an anxiety to go there among
thousands of young men in the
land, who have an idea that
gold nuggets grow on trees and
101 l down the streams. It is
only t he bright side that is pub
lished. The hundreds of dis
appointed tender-feet who die
in misery or have to seek me
nial employment for bread, are
never mentioned. It is only
the successful men who are ever
heard of.
The thermometer goes down
to 70 degrees below zero in the
winter, and no chance to get
away.
Zeke Ward was tried in Wal
ton Superior court last week
for the murder of Cook. The
jury found the accused guilty
with a recommendation to mer
cy.
This is the second time he
has been convicted. His case
was carried to the Supreme
court after his first conviction
and a new trial granted on the
ground that the evidence was
not sufficient to authorize a ver
dict of guilty.
The case will probably go
back to that court and to be
consistent they will have to
grant another trial. It is a
question now between the jury
and the Supreme court.
ILLEGAL.
The leasing of convicts topri
vale parlies or to counties has
been decided by the Supreme
court to ho illegal.
The money raised has not
been paid to the counties but
has been distributed among the
officers. As the whole contract
is illegal it is not probable that
much more will be paid in.
In the meantime the misde
meanor convicts will sue out
writs of habeas corpus and be
discharged.
The report that Gen. Evans
was a candidate for the office
of Slate Librarian is indignant
ly denied by the general. He
is a candidate for no office and
has not applied to the Governor
to give him n job.
But the office will not be va
cant even if the general (urns
his baek on it. Capt. John
Millego, present librarian, Miss
Ellen Dortch, his assistant,
and half dozen othbr worthy
people ure anxious to fill the
place.
Tom Blodgett, of Milton
county, seems to be a hustler,
and is mixed up with all sorts
of Republican schemes.
Tom has not received the re
ward which he expected and is
on the war path against U. S.
Marshal Johnson. He has just
published a letter written to
Johnson, charging him with all
sorts of duplicity. Johnson
does not reply, he lets Tom
have his way.
CLARKSVILLE WINS.
At the election held in Haber
sham county to decide whether
the county site should he re
moved from Clarksville to
Toccoa, lust Thursday, Clarks
ville won. Tho vote stood lor

GATHERING* PEARLS.
Beautiful pearls are being
found in Arkansas rivers. They
range in value from 10 to Btx>
dollars. Hundreds of uieu and
boys ure searching rivers and
lakes for the precious stones.
They aie generally rose colored
and tine guality.
THE PERRY CASE,
This case is still pending be
fore the Governor, who has held
up his decision in order to give
the parties time to file addition
al affidavits. The defense is
seeking to show that Lanier was
a bad man and especially in his
efforts to betray women, while
the prosecution is hunting up
evidence as to his good charac
ter.
The Governor decided to post
pone the consideration of tin
case until this week and he will
probably decide the case today
or tomorrow.
The respite will postpone tie
sentence unti next Wednesday
but the Governor wants to make
his final decision as early ns
practical.
He has not intimated what
his decision will be, if he has
made up his mind.
OFF FOR CUBA.
A large Cuban expedition
sailed from Tampa last Satur
day night for Cuba. The men
have been drilled for two
months and go to the island
fully equipped for service.
They managed to dodge the
Spanish detectives and govern
ment spies.
A GOAT LEARNS GEOGRA
PHY.
A goat got into a school house
in an adjoining countyund took
up the study of geography. He
found he had taken a liking to
one of the school charts, for
which this county was canvass
ed some months ago by agents,
had eaten Mexico, destroyed tin
gulf of Mexico, pawed several
big holes in Cuba, and ran out
of the house with the United
States in his mouth, —Burns-
