(-UMJITIOSS OF INDIVIDUAL MATCH
IN STATE RIFLE CONTESTS.
The Mnrk# Medal Will Be ConteMted
for by the Five Men Making; the
Beat Records, nt Known Diatanee*.
in llie Company nnl Rejstiincntnl
Mutches—'These Will Shoo! for It
nt 200, 300, 500 and 000 Yards.
Col. Conn Has Received Assnran
ces of intention to Enter Teams
From Twenty Companies Three
Regimental Tea him Certain and
Five Possible.
The gold medal offered by Mr. Charles
Marks, to be presented to the winner of
an individual match at the coming rifle
contests of the state troops, was yester
day formally accepted by Col. George T.
Cann, state inspector general of rifle prac
tice.
Col. Cann announced also the conditions
under which the match will be shot. The
entries will be limited to those five mem
bers of the regimental and company teams
who attain the highest record at known
distances in these matches. The known
distances are 200, 300, 500 and 600 yards.
The contest for the medal will also be at
known distances—those at which the com
pany and regimental teams will shoot.
The medal will be a handsome one and
the fact that there will be an opportunity
for marksmanship to count for the indiv
taal marksman, as well as for the team of
which he is a member, will doubtless ad l
an interest to the contests they would not
otherwise have possessed.
From all over the state come encourag
ing evidences of the interest which the
various military commands are taking in
the events of Sept. 3 and 4. The newspa
pers are giving space freely to the enter
prise and commend it as one of the most
valuable and efficient methods of training
that the state troops could find any
where.
The contests will be known officially as
“Trie Second Annual Carbine and Rifle
Competi ion for Georgia State Troops,”
the first having been held at the Avondale
range several years ago.
Col. Cann has received assurances that
they will enter teams from nine com
panies outside the city, and from eleven
of those located in Savannah. While he
has not been notified officially of this in
tention on the part of the company com
manders the assurances he his
are of such a character as to warrant him
in the conviction that twenty or more
teams will be en ered.
For the regimental match teams will be
entered from the First and Fourth Infan
try and the First Cavalry, while to these
certain entries there are strong proba
bilities that teams from the Second and
Fifth Infantry will be added. Altogether
the prospects for the contests at once are
interesting to the spectators, and valuable
in their results are exceedingly bright.
The Savannah companies are practic
ing steadily at the butts, as well for the
purpose of having their officers, and men
qualify as sharpshooters and marksmen
in the state service, as of preparing for
the matches of September. Not an aft
ernoon passes but there are representa
tives of two or three of the companies
at the range, and on Saturday afternoons
the number usual on week days is per
ceptibly increased.
From other cities and towns through
out the state come reports that their mil
itary representatives are practicing to
the same end, with the fixed determination
to give a good account of themselves
when they fight for the De Soto cup, and
the DeVlenne trophy next month. The
offer of the medal for the individual match
will doubtless fire the ardor of individual
marksmen of the various commands, in
spiring them with a personal interest they
might otherwise fail to feel.
“FIREMAN'S*' SECOND M MBER.
Hrnutjr About It In That It Contn
NothiiA to Subscribe.
The second member of the Fireman,
the little paper published by the men at
the headquarters of the Savannah fire
department, mad* its appearance yester
day. The number is got up in good
style and is full of things of interest to
the firemen and their friends. One beauty
obout the Fireman, is that it does not
cost anything to subscribe to it. All
that is necessary is to send in a name
with sufficient stamps to pay the postage
as the paper is not entered at the Post
office, as second class mail matter.
Intelligent Treatment Needed.
Editor Morning News: A convict in
one of the Georgia camps, having come
to the same conclusion that so many of
us have done, namely, that “he would
not work,” was taken in hand by the
keeper; a successions of floggings proved
ineffectual, the last on© being so severe
that it needed no repetition—the day
following the man died. Whether he was
whipped to his death, or whether he was
removed as superfluous, by a higher
power, is not yet decided, and probably
will not be by any human tribunal. But
the “a priori” reasoner must conclude
that a stigma rests upon the and
upon the community in which 6uch an
net is possible, the system rather than
the individual being at fault.
There are numerous methods not open
to the charge of cruelty, which might
be applied with reasonable probability of
success, and which are in successful work
ing elsewhere. A Georgia convict is as
amenable to such treatment as the con
vict of any other state, probably more
so. We have not yet tried persuasion,
deprivation of privilege, and so forth,
and so forth; only blind unreasoning force,
resulting in failure; and In this instance
we have to face a charge of brutality
which, if not proven, is not disproven.
The penalty of all transmission of law
must be visited upon the offender. We
cannot manage negro convicts so that
our New England critics will be satisfied
(and this is not a need), but we can sure
ly carry on the work so that our own
reason and conscience will not condemn
us, and so far we have not attained to
that condition.
This is a part—and an important part—
of the race question. Discard the whip
ping post. It is n brutallizing force, and
the evil is greater to those who apply the
lush, than to the degraded ones, who, by
it. ore sunk to a lower depth, instead
of to a possible uplifting.
Every consideration points to a need
for a change in our methods. I trust the
New? will aid in the good work of arous
ing public sentiment to the need. There
ia a tendency to condemn all brutal pun
ishments. We must not substitute ven
geance for justice. There are penalties
®nd methods which the civilized workl
condemns, and we can not afford to em
ploy them.

PROF. BETTI SON DEAD.
••e Wan Formerly a. Member of the

ulty of Tulane University, New Orleans,

PRIZE FIGHT WAS A FIZZLE.
(Continued from Eighth Page.)
gin cursing their luck and abusing the
management, the loser and everybody
rise who had anything to do with the
hgnt. Many declared it a fake pure and
simple and the majority were inclined to
disbelieve that Pearce had really been
knocked out. Some declared that Pearce
wus a quitter, while others held to the
view that it was a plain case of bunco.
The general verdict, to put it mildly, was
that it was the most unsatisfactory con
?e*st ever seen in Savannah.
Roth men wtre seen in their dressing
rooms shortly after the fight. Neither ap
lcaied to bo much (he worse for his ex
perience. Corcoran had a slight cut in
the forehead and his na urally ruddy sk n
was pretty well reddened about he chest,
but from all appearances he could easily
have gene on for another fight in ten
in nutes.
Pearce did not look a bit like a man
who had been lifted off the floor in a state
of v llapse only fifte n minutes before. He
had a few slight cuts and bruis s. but
nothing in anyway serious. His left arm
was slightly swollen at the wrist and he
said that he hurt it in the second round.
He expre-sed s. me fear that he had brok
en one of the bones of the wiist anl later
went to a drug store to have the arm
dressed. He did not attempt to explain his
deft at, but expressed a willingness to
meet Corcoran again In September when
the wtath r would be cooler.
After leaving the Theater the crowd
gathered in bunches along Bull street and
expressed its feelings. The expressions
were long, pronounced, emphatic, and In
some instances profane. The majority de
clared that they had not been given a
show for their money and that it was the
worst deal of the kind that had ever been
handed out to them in Savannah.
As to whether the fight had been ‘‘fix
ed’* or whether Pearce simply lacked the
nerve to stand up to Corcoran opinions
differed. Some of the regular sports even,
declared thm they had been worked for
suckers, and it was pointed out as sig
nificant that a small coterie among the
sporting element, who had devoted much
time to singing the praises of Pearce, had
been exceedingly eager to post bets on
Corcoran during the twenty-four hours
preceding the fight.
Pearce had a good record as a prize
fighter, and has bested several good men
in his time. The reports of his prowess
which freely circulated here, were
not without foundation. His friends claim
that he trained down too quickly, taking
off seventeen pounds in a comparatively
short time, and this, with the severe heat
which has prevailed since his arrival here
•and from which he has suffered greatly,
left him In no shape for fighting. It is
said that tips were received here by some
of the sporting men from acquaintances
in Louisville during the last few days that
Pearce, who had previously won a num
ber of fights, had recently gone to pieces,
and that a man in Corcoran’s condition
could do him up easily. This may pos
sibly explain the fiasco of last night.
Whether the large-sized disgust with re
gard to prize-fighting will militate against
future events of this kind remains to be
seen. Australian Tommy Williams of
Louisville, who has quite a record as a
prize-fighter, telegraphed a challenge last
night to meet the winner on practically
the same conditions as the fight of last
night. This fight will probably be ar
ranged. Williams gave Corcoran the
hardest fight of his life in Atlanta some
months ago, being put out in the ninth
round by a swinging blow. Both men
were groggy, and the result w T as consid
ered something of an accident. ‘‘Myste
rious Billy” Smith is said to have made
his reputation by licking Williams, so
that he would seem to be of some note
in the pugilistic world.
LIVING QUESTIONS.
Imperialism and the Chinese Sit
uation.
Editor Morning News: Mr. Bryan is
right when he says: “The command to
preach the gcspel has no Gatling gun at
tachment’ Not since Jefferson’s day has
the Democratic par y had such states
manship at the helm and such an array
of ccncre e arguments.
If with these they cannot and do not
win. then we must decide that this re
public has bartered its heritage of man
hood for money, principles for pelf, and
liber.y for the gilded but empty glory
of empire.
Let some arts' now give us a cartoon
of Lincoln freeing the slaves and Mc-
Kinley enslaving freemen. History fur
nish's no such example of the complete
reversal of party principles.
If the standard silver dollar is a “dis
honest dollar” as the new third party
srems to believe, and the can par
ty has dtc’ared, then why doe a Repub
lican adminis ration con-inue to coin
them?
And why have all the hankers flopped
over to the “gold standard?”
Every paper cr person advocating the
“gold standard” is playing into the hands
of the P oubl can party and stabbing
D< mocra under the shoulder blade.
It is high time to lay aside
persons gain for patriotism. Every man
knows that he present plethoric condi
tion of the national treasury is due to
war taxes, and. farther, that the millions
now turned loose, were hoarded to force
the gold standard upon the nation. There
are a thousand men in the United States
who can arbitrarily force the business of
the country into bankruptcy. Republican
administration and legislation have
brought this to pass. Protective tariff
is the child of Republican policy and
the father of trusts and imperialism. Mr.
Bryan is logical and right in his insist
ence upon placing cause and effect in
logical sequence in the Democratic plat
form.
The power to conquer and enslave for
eigners can and will, if found to its ad
vantage, conquer and enslave free citi
zens; and if it will do the first it will
also the last.
There is one of three things before
Americans —eiher revolution by ballots,
revolution by bullets or—slavery, the per
petual enthronement of the classes over
the masses by military power. Our re
public is on the verge of ruin—wreck—dis
solution.
There are three forms of slavery: Com
mercial. political, ecclesiastical, anrl al
r ady we have the first, th* others will
folkw unless the greit masses can be
led to see the truth. It is Democracy’s op
portunity and the ration’s crisis.
Much is being said as to the cause of
the Chinese trouble, and a very skilful!
effort is being made to place it upon the
missionaries
The facts lie on the very surface: It Is
th* commercial, land-grabbing territory
hunting imperialistic spirit of the nations
in their dealings with th’ Ch'nes*. Be
ginning with the “African war.” and com
ing on down to the present time, all men
know there has been a gradual, continu
ous but deiermincd purpose upon the part
of Europe’s fmoires to seize upon and
dlv d* China between *hem as they have
Africa, and all other countries too wpak
to resist. And of this oommerciol spirit
military power is th* servant and mon
arch of the iratigaors.
But <hi* is not the first nor will It be
the last time that Christianity has suf
fered commtrcl'al blasphemy.
Prophecy is not dumb concerning hee
times. It foretells the deep-laid conplr
nry of political and commercial corrup
tion. led ‘by Satan against Jesus Christ
and his foillowers. They barter the blood
of nations for empire and gold, ae Eng
land Is doing In Africa, ami then try to
lay the blame on the ambassados of pence.
God has an answer for this which the
world will hear In due time, so that
martyred and blasphemed misslonorles
must hide? under the hand of Ood until
that day. J. A Scarboro.
