Anyone having an item of personal mention or news happening, will confer a favor by handing it to one of Tib Capifol staff, each of whom wears a silver sac aimile of the above signet. 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. 4> —————— V.te to morrow. Prtob L. Mynatt—Representative. Eveby Democrat should vote to-morrow. The merchants’ friend —Hon. P. L. My natt. 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. Hear Hammond to-night at Con A Fine Livery Stable. Mr. Lee S. Dunn has purchased the livery stable of Mr. Harry Hill, at 27 and 29 Ivy street. The experience Mr. Dunn has in this business certainly should justify him a liberal patronage. His new outfits cannot be surpassed in the city. Parties wishing to board horses should call, as he has the most airv and modern stable in the city, with large shade trees in front. Concordia will be crowded to night to hear Ham mond. Death of Jessie Pinna. Yesterday morning at half past eight o’clock Mr. Jessie Plum died athis home on the corner of Savannah and Tennelle {streets. Mr. Plum has been in delicate health for more than a year. He leaves a wife and one tender child. His funeral will be conducted at 3 o’clock this after noon to Oakland cemetery by Rev. Wm. Shaw, and the friends of deceased and relatives are in vited to attend. Services conducted at 3at the residence, corner Savannah and Tennelle sts. The People will be at Concordia to hear Hammond to-night. • IMPORTANT TO PICNICKERS. We make a specialty of fn-ninhing picnics with the finest ice cream and cake to be found outside of the tropical regions. E. O. & CO. 43 Peachtree. Nat Hammond at Concordia to night.
