Second Edition.
Col. Hammond, in his speech of Satur
day night, seems to avoid carefully the
great labor question. That explains his
position in that respect plainer than argu
ments could do.

V.te to morrow.
Prtob L. Mynatt—Representative.
Eveby Democrat should vote to-morrow.
The merchants’ friend —Hon. P. L. My

E vfry Democrat of the county, can vote to
morrow.
The working man’s friend —Hon. Pryor L.
Mynatt.
Youb next Representative, Hon. Pryor. L.
Mynatt. „
The swimming match at Angier pond for
several large prizes will take place Wednesday.
The anti’s, as a whole, recognize Col. Ham
mand as their candidate. Col. Mynatt made no
fuss about it, but he voted according to his con
victions.
Thebe is no need of having registered to vote
to-morrow. Everybody that is a Democrat can
vote. Be sure to cast your ballot for the peo
ple’s choice.
Drop one in to-morrow for a man who will not
spend eight years in Congress and not be able
to point to one important act and who, when be
voted, was on the side of corporations and mon
opolies as against labor. Pryor L. Mynatt is
your man.
Personal friendship and gratitude is a jewel*
and Col. Mynatt will not, by haughty bearing
and high headedness, forget to recognize his
friends at any time. His record has proven that.
He is a modest, plain, unassuming man, and in
sympathy with the people.
There is a big fuss being made about the ap
propriation for barracks at this place as a won
derful achievement of our representative, when
the truth is that the officials of the war depart
ment had it located at Atlanta on account of the
healthful climate.
Shomo, the red-hot commission merchant
across the way, received 38 boxes of delicious
pineapples this morning. He ip always alive to
the demands of the market and is very popular.
We sampled those pineapples tllis morning and
pronounce them fine.
Examine Col. Mynatt’s ticket and you will
see that (the merchant and mechanic is fully
represented. Quite a contrast to those on the
other ticket in this respect. Be sure to vote the
oorrect ticket and not in your hurry, vote one
that it is certain the cut and dried fellows will
have out, that will be similar to the genuine
one.
Memories of Old Georgia..
Colonel Richard Malcolm Johnston will deliver
a highly interesting and entertaining lecture on
this subject on Tuesday night at 8 o’clock in the
courthouse, the net proceeds to be for the Fifth
Baptist church.
A Word to Workingmen.
The Capitol presumes thus far, that believ
ing that its avowed friendship for the working
man is a well known fact, it offers the sugges
tion that everyone of them give one hour or
more to-morrow to casting their own vote, and
getting as many others as possible, for the man
who has announced himself squarely on their
aide, and a man who is known to be true to any
promise or declaration he may make.
We urge everyone to attend to this matter.
By electing Col. Mynatt vou put in the enter
ing wedge, perhaps, to amelioration of many of
the existing oppressions.
If you are busy and must hurry, be careful
that you vote the correct Mynatt ticket, such as
appears in another column, under the head of
“For Congress, P. L. Mynatt.” There will be
mixed up tickets, and there will be strikers em
ployed by the Bammond ring supporters who
will offer arguments which may appear plausi
ble when unanswered.
But guard your candidate; who has no one on
his ticket but workingmen and merchants, and
in electing him put your stamp of disapproval
upon the moneyed ringsters’ unfair and unprec
edented conduct of last Monday night.
Class Against Claes.
Because Col. Mynatt insists upon the rights
of laborers it is charged by Mr. Hammond and
his friends that Col. Mynatt is arraying class
against class. Every fair minded man who has
listened to Mr. Mynatt knows that this is not
trne, and nothing could be more absurd.
Mr. Mynatt argues that labor has as much
right to organize as capital.
We ask in all seriousness, has it not ?
Is it arraying labor against capital for the la
borers to vote for Mr. Mynatt instead Mr. Ham
mond 1
Os what class is Mr. Hammond?
Do yen Hammond supporters mean that Mr.
Hammond is supporting the capitalists?
If voting against Hammond is arraying labor
against capital, then it will be arrayed in all its
orv to-morrow night.

TELEGRAPHIC
A Savannah Passenger Steamer
Ashore.
Associated Press to Capitol.
New Bedford, July 19. —Steamer Gate City,
Captain Hedge, of the Boston and Savannah
Steamship Line, while on passage from Savan
nah to Boston, went ashore on south side of
the island of Taushon, in Vineyard Sound, at
7:15 oclock last evening, in a thick fog, and now
lies in about 15 feet of water.
The steamer had been in the fog all day, and
for four hours had had her engine stopped.
When she struck she was going under one bell,
and had a man heaving the lead.
She struck just as a man called out: “We
have no water.” The boat put off from the
steamer and went in search of help. Near Tar
paulin Cave the boat encountered the steamer,
“William O’Brown,” which went to the Gate
City and took off 30 of her 52 passengea and
brought them to this city, where they took the
5:25 train for Boston. The rest of the passen
gers and crew remaining on the Gate
City, but it is thought that the O’Brown
will take them up on her next trip.
The steamer Gate City struck twice, once on her
port bow and again about midships, and as she
soon settled down her fires were extinguished
and no efforts could be made to get her off.
She lies in a comparatively easy position, and
will, it is believed, be got off. She has a large
number of watermelons as freight. Passengers
who were landed saved all their baggage.
They speak in high terms of the coolness and
courage es Capt. Hedge and his officers, and
say that owing to their promptness there was no
panic. All was done for the comfort of the pas
sengers that was possible, and no blame for the
accident attaches to those in charge of the
steamer. The fog had been thick all day, and
when the steamer struck it was impossible to
see more than a few feet ahead, although after
she struck the fog lifted and the land could be
seen less than the steamer’s length ahead.
Atlanta Genins.
Atlanta is bound to be heard. She is always
before the public in something new and start
ling. Among other things she has a list of in
ventors of whom any city might well be proud.
To-day we were shown the model of a new in
vention which will add one more star to Atlanta’s
crown.
The article of which we speak is called an
“Automatic Cut-off for Water Pipes.” It
is designed to operate the stop
cock of water pipes. When the temperature
gets low, every citizen knows that his water
pipes must be watched very closely. The water
must be kept running all the time, or else cut
off entirely. If the water is not kept in motion
or let out of the pipes it will freeze iu the pipes
at about 30 degrees. Then comes the stoppage
of water, then the thaw, then the leak ruining
everything in and under the house. You leave
your order at the plumber's, and in due time he
comes, then pay-day comes, and you vow you
will never use any more water. The next freeze
the operation is repeated with more or less va
riation.
The “Automatic Cutoff” saves all attention
to your pipes. You have the “Aqtomatic Cut
off” attached to the stop and waste cock of your
water pipes, and when the temperature gets
dangerously low your water is turned off, sure
ly, noiselessly and without profanity. This
saves a great deal of time used in attending to
water pipes, and a great many dollars usually
paid to the plumber.
The inventor and patentee of the “Automatic
Cutoff” is W. J.Wood, the stovier, at 87 White
hall street, who will take pleasure in explaining
the merits sf his useful invention.
We understand Mr. Wood intends to organize
a stock company and manufacture the “Auto
matic Cut-off” here in Atlanta. Thia will be
another feather in the lot of the Gate City, as
many thousands of “Cut-offs” will be turned
out annually.

Recorder Anderson’s Decision in the
Liquor Cases.
The cases against Al Bronck, Hollis A McMa
hon, Dr. Schumann, Herman Werner, Richard
Boettcher and W. H. Woodfolk f?r keeping liq
uor on band for illegal sale were tried in the re
corder’s court this morning. Judge Ander
son held that all the so-called quart licenses
were invalid because the county commissioners
could not legally issue them.
That the conduct of Dr. Schumann and Al
Brouck and Hollis ard McMahon was a bold,
barefaced attempt to dodge the prohibition law,
and the community was disgusted.
Boettcher and Woodfalk were discharged as
they were only clerks, and the defendants were
fined $509 each.
