Billy Bryan continues to
niake speeches —and g od ones,
too. In fact when it comes to
speech making Billy is entitled
to wear the belt —likewise the
blue ribbon.
The Massachusetts Democra
cy, in its State convention,
nominated .1. Fred William for
Governor and a full State tick
et. The Chicago platform was
fully endorsed.
The Comptroller General has
decided that a man does not
have to take out a license to
auction his own goods. Surely
not. Why lie can physic him
self and his horse without pay
ing a special tax. Allah be
praised.
An attempt has been made to
kill .the Czar of Russia. A
mine had boen dug across the
street he was expected to pass
and the conspirators intended
blowing up the entire party.
The plot was discovered in
time to save the life of all.
The wife Gov. Atkinson, of
West Virginia, has been indic
ted for forgery. The Governor
appeared with her in court. If
she is convicted ho will proba
bly pardon her. The forgery is
charged to have been commit
ted before her marriage with
the Governor.
Out in Louisiana Judge Lynch
announces his hangings in ad
vance, so that the people eager
to see a mob lynch a culprit
can be on hand. Last Friday
a negro was lynched fora felon
ous assault iu the presence of a
large crowd.
The yellow fever scare does
not prevent the festive burglars
from currying on business in At
lanta. Six stores were entered
and robbed one night last week.
The police were busy hunting
up men that spread fake stories
about the fever.
It does not pay to joke in Sa
vauah. The fact is it’s rather
expensive fun. A man from
Moutioello went down there last
week and told that he was from
New Orleans, Whereupon he
was arrested and assessed $25
for lieing.
If you should receive a letter
new with holes punched through
it, you can understand that it
has been fumigated. All let
ters that come from the iufested
districts are subjected to a pro
cess of fumigation in order to
kill auy fever germs that may
be in them.
The Chattahoochee river is
so low at Columbus that the
mills can run only part of the
time. Some wiseacre down
there, who knows how to scrib
ble, charges thut Atlanta is re
sponsible for low water. He
thinks that the water taken
from the river and sent to the
city will aoon ruu the riverdrv
Miss Fleming, who has the
only case of yellow fever in
Atlanta, is rapidly improving
and her physicians think she
will recover. No other cuse
has appeared in the house where
there are a number of people
(|uaiantiued, or in the city,
although there are 1,5(J0 refu
gees in the city from the fever
stritkun districts.
Georgia yams are being ship
ped to Eastern cities. They
coiitiuue to find out what the
South is good for except to
lynch negroes. Just think of a
Boston man, who has been
raised on baked beans, getting
his nippers on a juicy yellow
yam. His eyes would look us
big as dog-wood blossoms.
The famous case of McCul

STATE LIBRARIAN, jgi
Now that Mrs. Longstreet has
married, she is regarded as out
of the race for State Librarian,
allhough she has not formally
announced that she will with
draw her application.
Capt. John Milledge is still
in the race,'and is highly en
dorsed. He has, perhaps, the
largest endorsement of any ap
plicant. It is said, however,
that a slate has been formed
which may put in another man.
Mr. James E. Brown of New
uan comes to the front as a
favored applicant.
It is understood that Gov.
Atkinson is laying his plans to
go to the Senate, and wants to
succeed Senator Bacon.
The Governor, so it is said,
wants to bring up the 4th Con
gressional district solid in his
support, and to this end will
appoint Judge Samp W. Harris
Railroad Commissioner to suc
ceed Allen Fort, whose term
will expire this fall. This will
make a vacancy in the Judge
ship of the Coweta circuit, and
Warner Hill will go on the
bench. Attorney General Ter
rell expects to he a candidate
for Governor, and if he should
be elected Gov. Atkinson will
have a strong team to work for
him at. the capitol.
This is the program as pub
lished by the papers, and the
public will wait to see how far
it is carried out.
LAY ON M’DUFF.
The fight between Decatur
and Stone Mountain over the
location of the court house
grows warmer as (he time ap
proaches for the Legislature to
meet.
Ihcatiir claims that Bhe has
1,700 petitioners who favor
Decatur. That is a majority
of the qualified voters of the
county.
The Stone Mountain folks
say that many of the signatures
were fraudulently obtained and
that a large number are not
legal voters of the county.
The two representatives take
opposite sides. Mr. Henderson
favors Stone Mountain while
Mr. Morrison will advocate De

CHANGE OF VENUE.
Old Taylor Delk, who has
been three times convicted of
murder and sentenced to die,
has asked for a change of venue.
He does not believe he can get
a fair trial in Pike county, aud
the public has about reached
the same conclusion. Judge
Beck will take the matter of
granting a removal of the case
under consideration and it is
probable will grant it.
FOR GOVERNOR.
Judge Speer once got out an
injunction to prevent his ene
mies publishing one of bis let

against being named for Gover

In fact vox popuu and tbe

The fight for M»yor of Great

woman who bought him.
Poor fellow 1 Maybe when
she gets tired of him she will

PHONOGRAPH IN COURT.
It is a new idea, first tried in
Chicago, to have a phonograph
in court to take down the testi
mony of witnesses. In this
way the exact language and
tone of voice can he stored
away nnd afterwards ground
out to the jury whenever the
judge directs it.
It may become a great labor
saving machine for lawyers who
have to make out, a brief of
testimony.
DESTRUCTIVE FIRES.
Georgia lias been visited with
a number of d*struct ive fires in
the last week. Rome, Talbot
ton, Cochran and other places
have sutiered. In this dry time
people cannot be too paiticular
about fire. Once started it is
almost impossible to check it.
500 CASES.
The United States District

The Atlanta Commercial says
that Hoke Smith owns 60 shares
of the capital stock of the At

true, it looks rather strange for
the manager of a rival paper to

has been a kilkeuuey tight be.

A Texas editor was mobbed'
at Waco, Texas, by a party of
students. They did not hurt
him but under the threat of
death made him retract some
thing that lie had published
and agree to leave tovn. Now,
since he has got free he rakes
back the retraction and says he j

where she could plant touch
