THURSDAY MORNING. SEPT. 27,1888.
The North Georgia and Alabama
Exposition opens next Monday.
In searching Colquitt’s record
to find what services lie ever per
formpd that entitle him to a seat
in the senate the result is inva
riably as follows: 0 0 0.
Watch out for the counterfeit $5
silver certificates. —Chattanooga
Times,
We would say watch out for the
genuine ones; they are worth the
most.
Vote down the amendment auth
orizing the election of two addition
al judges to the supreme court. It
is only a scheme to saddle upon
the treasury two more salaried
officers.
Do the people of Chattooga coun
ty want a brace more of supreme
court judges? They will draw
salaries if they get in, and the peo
ple have been doing very well with
three judges.
The Atlanta Journal comments
favorably upon the mention by the
North Georgia papers of Congress
man Clements for Georgia’s next
governor. “Our Jud” would make a
good governor and no mistake.
The next legislature could elect
the Hon. J. C. Clemmcnts to the
United States senate witout mak
ing the people mad. It would
make a few pot-house, copper-bel
lied politicians angry, but the coun
try would undoubtedly survive that.
The Cedartown Standard insists
that we do not quarrel over the
indorsement of Colquitt by the Ce
dartown convention. Why, cer
tainly not. That convention had
no business or authority to indorse
Colquitt f>r senator. It is not
quarreling to tell the truth. Eh?
The people of Georgia at the
October election will be called up
on to vote for an amendment to
the constitution authorizing the
next legislature to elect two more
judges of the supreme court.
There are enough judges already.
If those who are serving have more
work to do than they want to do
and are tired, let them resign ; there
are plenty of good men ready and
willing to take their places.
The race Thomas W. Milner is
making for the judgship of the Cher
okee circuit cannot fail to excite in-
terest in Chattooga county, where he
is so well remembered for his ser
vices in behalf of Democracy du
ring the Lester-Felton campaign.
We sincerely believe the represen
tatives that will be elected to the
legislature from the counties com
posing the seventh district will be
representing the interests of De
mocracy and the wishes of their
constituencies by voting for Milner.
He is an able lawyer and a fearless
man ; qualified and deserving. He
fought for the Democracy in time
of trial; now let the people see to
it that their representatives rem
ember him for it.
Colquitt never did a single thing
to entitled him to a life-lease on a
seat in the United, States senate
from Georgia. At first he was
opposed to Cleveland’s tariff policy,
but when he found that that policy
was going t,o sweep the country
he carefully adjusted himself to
the new order of things and took
a header with the tide. A conven
tion of no sort can be held without
a Colquit politician popping up to
olfer a resolution indorsing Col
quitt. ll<- is an adroit politician;
a header off of every popular move
ment ; a drifter with the tide; a
chip' on the current. lie never
originates anything; his plan is to
get the benefits of policies origina
ted by others. He never leads a
movement; the movement always
leads him. lie is no statesman.

“The state of Georgia, which
owns the state road, will probably
take action concerning it at the
next session of the legislature, as the
twenty-years lease of it to Gover
nor Brown and his associates ex
pires October 2d, 1889. It is sa'd
that the Central of Georgia will
offer to lease the road at $40,000 per
month, and also that the Louisville
and Nashville intends to offer $50,-
000 per month for a ninety-nine
year lease. The latter amount is
just twice the present rents’. It
will be remembered that the lessees
presented to the state last yea
a claim for a large sum expended
so- betterments to the property.—

There have been many petitions
presented to congress asking the
removal cf the duty on bagging. It
was thought by „he removal of ihe
duty the price would be cheapened,
and the object of the trust defeated.
It seems, however, ..hat the origina
tors of the trust, in forming their
combine, took ail this into consid
eration and so timed their advance
in price that even if the duty was
removed it could be of no practical
benefit to the farmers this vear.

Last week a contractor’s lien was
filed in the office of the clerk of the
superior court of F'oyd county l y
the Chattahoochee Brick Company
against the C., R. & C. railroad for
$250,000. The Brick company
claims that the Rome & Carrollton
construction company are indebted
to them for work done on the road
and for materia' furnished to the
amount of $157,947.
The Chattahoochee Brick com
pany.had a contract with the Rome
& Carrollton Construction company
for building about one hundred
miles of the Rome and Carrollton
railroad, which runs from Chattan
ooga to Carrollton.
The Brick company cjlaim that
the Construction company was
obl'ge-1 to complete the road by Ju
ly Ist or so feit a subscription of
SIOO 000 made by Clia.ta-ioogn.
The Brick company cla'm that they
were ready to build the load, but
the Coost aciion company violated
their contract, causing them to loso
$98,191. and in order to save .he
road the Chattanooga subscription
the brick company allowed trains
to be run upon it. They say that
the ConsitucCon company is mak
i>-cr some sort ot arrangements to
turn the road over to the railroad
company, and hence the filing o.
the bill.
The construction company re
fused to pay for the road at its
