THE ELECTION CONTEST.
The Beginning of the End In
Sight.
Last Friday the Court of Ordi
nary, before which the election
contest is being tried, held anoth
er session to hear evidence from
the prohis in the case pending. A
little before noon the contestants
attorneys announced that all their
evidence was in, and their case
closed.
They had, from first to last, filed
three bills, the first one containing
the names of nine alleged illegal
wet voters. A second bill filed la
ter contained the names of about
thirty more; and a third bill tiled
last Saturday contained a list of
names of about every man in town
who had voted a wet ticket. Later,
the attorneys for the contestants
struck a number of these names
from their bill, presumably on the
ground of a lack of evidence to
sustain the charges made.
As stated before, the evidence
for the contestants was closed last
Friday before noon, quite a lot of
evidence having been submitted in
tended to show the illegality of a
largo number of voters on tho wet
side.
When tho contestants announced
: their case closed, Messrs Shrop
shire and Odell for the defense,
! I filed a cross bill containing a list
of thirty-four names of voters on
the prohibition side, which they
allege to he illegal on the grounds
of being tax defaulters and non
residents of the town, and the court
i will hear.evidence on this point
■ ! today, Wednesday.
One novel feature in the case is
i that quite a number of the prom
’ | inent business men of the town are
1 alleged to have voted illegally be
cause they had not first paid their
taxes. In a number of cases it
.! was shown that merchants and
«i others had accounts against ihe
3 5 collector and that they had called
on him, or spoke to him in refer
ence to a settlement, but tho col
lector was greatly pressed for time
* about December 20th, to accom
modate taxpayers out of town who
had neglected to make earlier sot
. tlemont, and tho merchants also
. being very busy through the hoii
-3 days, had neglected the matter,
and some of them did not actually
make settlements until after the
election January 2nd. It seems
that this has been a common prac
-1 tico for years past and no one
5 thought of there being any contest
over votes of this class until it
| was too late to remedy tho trouble.
| Quite a number are caught out on
i both sides on this point, and to
tho onlooker it furnishes no little
amusement. Just what the decis
ion of the court on this point will
’ be is a matter of considerable spec
ulation. Heretore business men
having store accounts against the
collector, approximating the a
mount of their taxes, have consid
ered their taxes paid, even though
i no actual settlement had been
made.
Others again paid their taxes af
| ter voting-without having the ex
j cuse of an account against the col-!
| lector for delay, and it is thought |
• that these will not stand so favor- i
J able a chance as the others.
1 The case comes up again this
i morning, and as the News is being 1
printed, the cohorts of tho “wets”
and the “dries” are marshalling
! their forces for the final struggle. |
I The case will probably be conciu
i ded this week and if so, the result
, will be given in next week’s paper.
The editor of the Rome Tribune
out of the abundance of his exper
ience, says: “The time to shoot
folly is not when it flies, but be
fore it flies.”
Last week two men in Atlanta
tried to see which could drink the
, most whisky. One is dead, the
other in the hospital as a result.
■ and yet one sometimes hears peo
i pie wonder where the fool-killer is.
The Ringgold New South says
in a reassuring tone: “No Annie,
you need lose no sleep over the
idea that there will not be enough
1 candidates in the field this fall to
fill all the offices, there will be
plenty and a few to . pare."

An editor gets oil the following:
“In church or sfate it is rule or be
ruled: in courtship or marriage it
is fool or be fooled : in logic or law
it is rick or oenicked; in gambling
or trade it is trick or be tricked.
In treaty or war it is beat or be
beaten: in the struggle for life it
is eat or be eatei ; in politics it is
crow or eat crow ; in newspaper
life it is hoe your *wu row.”

Every town in the state claims
to have only pretty girls. This is

Some towns have cake walks;
our town has been indulging in

hear much of the election contest
will probably see the point.

Advice to medest young men, If

Kind Words.
The appointment of Miss Edna
Cain as a member of the Board of
Lady visitors lo the Normal and
Industrial school at Milledgeville
was a deserved compliment to the
genius and attainments of this
bright young lady. Sho is the
youngest member on the board and
will prove one of the most faithful
and efficient.—Rome Tribune.
Gov. Atkinson has appointed
Miss Edna Cain a member of the
lady board ot visitors to tho Geor
gia Girls Normal and Industrial .
College at Milledgeville. This is
a splendid appointment in every
particular.—Dalton Citizen.
Miss Edna Cain, the talented j
young lady who helps to preside '
over the destinies of the bright

pointed by Gov. Atkinsan as a

dustrial school. Miss Cain is the j
youngest member of the board, |
but at the same time one of the

There are just nineteen ear di
dates for sheriff down in Etowah
, county, Ala. If tho papers down

The Populites and the Republi
cans have fused in Alabama, and

bottom of the whole affair.
Judge Whiteside Better.
Judge Whitsside, of Chattanoo
ga, who was thought to be dying
last Sunday night from the effects
of blood poison arising from an
amputated leg, is now better, and
it is thought may recover.
Moral Courage.
The most pitiful paradox in na
ture is physical t ravery allied with
moral cowardice. A man may be
as brave as a lion when it comes
to a personal encounter, where
mere brute force is all that is re
quired, but if he has not the moral
courage to do right for the sake of
right,»heisa detestable travesty
on manhood. He may avoid the
consequences of a fisticuff and still
be braver than C; osar.
It takes a fine sense of courage
and a pure heart to bo able to ac
knowledge an error and endeavor
to repair a wrong and the man who
can do it deserves all praise from
his fellow men and God will not
withhold from him his just reward.
If we were true to our nobler and
better instincts temptations would
not find us so vulnerable to every
assault, but too often we are led
astray by our selfish motives.
The thing to cultivate is not so
much of iron muscle, but a heart
of steel, vet sufficient to resist ev
ery temptation. The least sin
possible is the hope of mankind.
Absence of sin is a dream of angels.
Lot us, therefore, among our reso
lutions ior the now year, to resolve
over and above all, to try to be true
to our own better instincts and to
deal justly with our follow men
and to reverence and serve Go-1 as
becomes ns, His creatures. —Trib-
une.
A Pathetic Prayer.
The fishermen of Brittany, so
the story goes, ar-- wont to utter
this simple prayer when they
launch their boats upon tho deep:
“Keep nio, my God; my boat is
so small and thy ocean is so wide.”
How touchingly beautiful the
words and the thought! Might
not tho same petition be uttered
with as much, directness every
morning and evening of our daily
life: ‘‘Keep me, my God; for my
j boat is so small and thy ocean is
iso wide!” Keep me, my God,
| keep me from the perils and temp
i tations that throng around me as
Igo about my daily duties. “My
boat is so small” —I as so weak,
so helpless, so prone to wander, so
forgetful of thy loving kindness!
I am tossed to and fro at the mercy
of the world; lam buffeted about
by sharp adversity and driven be
fore the storms of grief and sor
row. Except thou dost keep me I
must perish. Keep mo, my God,
for “thy ocean is so wide” —the
journey is so long, and the days
and the years are many. “In thee
0 Lord, do I put my trust. Deliv
er me in thy righteousness.”
Ice From Upper Air.
A Y'ankee farmer in Brazil who
longed for the cooling liquids of
his native land and was unable to
obtain them in that tropical coun
try, says the South American Jour
nal, has utilized a kite for the pur
pose of obtaining ice. He tills a
tin can with water and sends it to
the height of three miles, where it
is promptly frozen. After a suffi
cient interval the kite is rapidly
in and the cake of ice is secured.
The inventor is so pleased with !
his toy that he now proposes to
send up a kite 150 feet long by a
steel wire cable. Under the kite
will be suspended a pulley, over
which runs an endless chain bear
ing cans attached to hooks. The
cans will be filled with water, and
the speed of the b it upon which
they run will be regulated so that
the topmost cans will be converted
into ice sufficiently hard to stand
the downward journey. This is
certainly the most original ice ma
chine of which we have ever heard
Russia seems to have flanked
the other powers and made a trea
ty, offensive and defensive with
Turkey. France will probably
join Russia in the business; Ger
many has nothing in that quarter.
We are rather glad of this. Rus
sia cannot behave worse than Eng
land has toward the poor, hunted,
murdered, starved and frozen Ar
menians ; and she may force her
ally to behave himself with some
semblance of humanity; once she
is to be held responsible in a mea
sure for the porte Russia may lay
a heavy and restraining hand on
the sultan and stop his policy of
annihilating his Christian subjects.

A Bad Spell.
The Atlanta Journal of last
Monday, in trying to give an ac
count of a man who had commit
ted perjury refers to this crime
twice as “purgery.” Shades of

have been taking "Native Herbs.”
In Memoriaa.
We, the committee appointed by
the Lverly Methodist Sunday:

sive of the sorrow caused by the
death of Mr. A. R. Foster, b?g
leave to make the following report:
Whereas, God in llis wisdom
and goodness has r moved from
our midst our beloved br ther, Al
fred Foster, whose death occurred
on the Bth, at Thomaaville, Ga
Resolved, That, as a Sabbath
school, we will endeavor to still
any desire to murmur at this dis
pensation of Providence and in
humble submission to say “Thy
will be done.”
Resolved, That in the death of !
Brother Alfred, the Sabbath school
has lost or.o who was an earncs;
worker, and true friend at all i
times. The severance of such re
lations is sad ; but in the present
instance how unspeakable. In such
a dispensation of Providence what j
can bo said?
Why attempt to fathom the do-;
ings of Him whose footsteps are in •
tl:o deep and His ways are past i
finding out. For a bore vement
’so heart rending earth affords no
i solace; words aro empty sounds;,
land even the tears and sympathies
of bleeding heart fai to give re
lief.
Nothing remains, but with hum
ble submission with the hope of
leuni-on in the better world, to re
'• sign the precious loved one unto !
tho Allwise and g< od. And if the j
suffering heart will ask why it is
. thus, let tho inquiry lie hushed
and tho voico be heard which whis- j
| pers tenderly and mournfully : i
‘‘What I do than kuowest not now,:
but thou rdialt know hereafter.”
Resolved, That we extend to the j
loving wife, children, parents.)
brothers and sisters onr sympathy j
in their sad bereavement.
Resolved, That these preambles!
and resolutions be published in
our county paper, and spread upon :
the minutes of the Sunday school 1
and a copy of the same b< furn isir
