CAMPAIGN EXPENSES.
The Macon Telegraph clips the
following sentence from an editorial
in last week’s Marietta Journal.
“It is estimated that the legiti
mate expenses of the campaign will
run from fifteen to twenty five
thousand dollars.”’
The Telegraph says the office did
not cost Gordon, Colquitt, Stephens,
McDaniel, Northen, Atkinson or
Candler any such sum.
How does the Telegraph know?
In some of the campaigns of the
past things have been done that‘
never saw the light of day. Under‘
the law passed during Governor
Smith’s administration campaign ex
pense accounts must be published.
The public will know more now
than it has known before, though it
will never know all.
We have heard that General Gor
don’s campaign fund when he ran
against Bacon and defeated him was
$25,000. We know nothing of Col
quitt’s fund but we feel sure it was
very large as his campaigns were
long and bitter. Alexander H.
Stephens practically had a walk
over. He told the politicians that
he was going to run and they just
got out of his way. MeDaniel was
nominated in the convention with
out having made a campaign worth
mentioning. The Boynton following
saw that Bacon would be nominated
on the next ballot and they swung
their whole strength to McDaniel’s
little handful and he was made Gov
ernor without a fight. Northen had
no opposition and, as John Temple!
Graves expressed it, ‘Walked un
challenged to the Chair of State.”
We know nothing about Atkinson’s
campaign, having been absent from
the State that year. Governor Can
dler’s fight was whipped before he
announced. While Secretary of
State he wrote many letters and had
the written pledges of five thousand
prominent men before he declared
himself a candidate.
We spoke of the campaign now in
progress, into which the liquor men
are said to have put from $50,000 to
$200,000.
From an intimate acquaintance
with the subject we think $15,000 a
reasonable campaign expense and in
a three months fight against the
whisky interests we would regard
$25,000 as necessary for an aggres
sive fight.
The campaign fund that menaces
pure politics is not the fund raised
for postage, printing of speeches
and such expenses, even if the sum
should reach $25,000, but the fund
that is contributed by brewers,
liquor dealers and distillers, and in
terests that have private ends to
serve.
Will the Macon Telegraph make‘
an investigation along that line,
keep up with it and tell us the
truth at the end of the campaign, or |
'sooner? We ask it in the interesti
of the individual voter, whatever his|
preference, for we want every hon-t
est man to have cne vote, no more
and no less, and to be influenced by!
his reason and best judgement and
mething else. If we havea candi
wlare for any office and he can not
win on that platform we are willing
for him to be beaten,

GRADY JOHNSON 1S
! INSTANTLY KILLED.

| minutes after ten o’clock and it was
|twenty minutes after eleven when
er. Morris was awakened and told
{of the killing. An hour and five
iminutes, therefore, elapsed between
ithe arrival of the young men at
'Belmont and the reporting of the
ttragedy. The woman says the
!’ young men did not wait in the yard
‘but that all three went into her
house together. ‘
In the presence or Deputy Sher
iff Lindley the woman gave the
Journal and Courier what she says
is a true statement of the killing:
She says the three young ,men
were sitting on the side of the bed
with Johnson between the two oth
| ers. Johnson said something to her
aboat one of the others and she
picked up the gun and jokingly told
him she would shoot him. She
says she did not know the weapon
' was cocked, that she did not bring
it to her shoulder but held it low in
her hands and that it was accident
ally discharged. Itis possible that
when Sanders and Bizzell saw thel(
gun was cocked and one of them J
reached for it, the woman’s fingers'
accidentally touched tbe trigger.
!That seems to be the most reason-!
‘able theory of the killing. The Wo
!man’s statement is to the effect
‘that there was no quarrel and no
‘bad feeling whatever, but there was
whisky in the crowd.
When the gun was fired Johnson
fell back on the bed, the whole top'
of his head blown to atoms. ‘
In the presence of the awful trag
edy the first thought seemed to be
to cover it up, which, however,}
with blood over the walls and win
dows would have been impossible.
The woman says it was suggested
that the body be placed on the rail
road track but that she would not
consent.
It must have been then nearly
eleven o’clock, The three, she says,‘
went out and stood by the station at
Relmont and tried to decide what to
do, none of them daring to go back to
the house. Finally Sanders and
Bizzell ran away and she went to
Mr. Morris’ house, woke him up and
told him of the killing.
Coroner Booth went to the scene
Friday morning and started the in
quest. After taking testimony
there the body was turned over to
the family and the inquest was ad-i
Journed and resumed Friday after
noon at the Court House. The ver
dict was that the killing was by
C:lia Thomas and she is being held
in jail.
It was thought on account of the
range of the shot that Johnson
might have been killed by some one
from from outside the house, but if
the woman held the gunin the po
sition in which she says she held it
the range of the shot would have
been the same. The theory that
Johnson was shot from outside the
house was abandoned. d
Sanders and Bizzell have been
held in $5OO bond each to appear as
witnesses at the trial. Captain Fred
Morris represents the woman.
Judge Gober appeared for the prose
cution.
The parents of young Johnson
have the profound sympathy of
many friendsin the terrible sorrow
that has come to them.

THE MARIETTA JOURNAL AND COURIER
iDe'ath of Chas. Robert Lindley.
I At two o’clock on the morning of
February 7, 1910, began the earth
ly life of Charles Robert, the first
| born child of John Walter and Ethel
| Lindley, of the city of Americus, Ga.
| At twoo’clock on the morning of
| September 18th, 1911, began the
| child’s life in Heaven. For after a
! week of suffering on his part and of
lfaithful attention on the part of
‘physician and loved ones, the im
' mortal spirit took its flight to realms
lof eternal day.
i All that was mortal, though dear
Ibecause of association with the
precious spirit, was laid away in
Ibeautiful Oak Grove Cemetery, in
| the presence of numerous friends
.and loved ones, to await the re
ldemption of the body on the res
’ urrection day. .
{ Many readers of the Journal will
:recall the picture of little Charles
| that appeared in the Journal in con
inection with the account of the
Lindley reunion in Marietta last
‘Christmas. He was noted as being
the only grandson bearing the
. Lindley name, and as the youngest
‘member present.
| Many in the city and throughout
iCobb County will be sorrowful at
!the news that this bright child has
been removed from the midst of
lloved ones here, but will also rejoice
lin the blessed assurance that
| ““mamma’s darling”’ is dear also to
the heart of God, and is now safe
i in Heaven.
l Deafness Cannot be Cured '
‘by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube., When this tube is'
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
! imperfect hearing, and_when it is en- |
tirely closed, Deatness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucousl
surfaces.
‘ We will give One Hundred Dollars |

catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’sl

In Memory of Miss
Mary Kate Lutz,
On Wednesday afternoon, Sept.
13th, 1911, a few minutes past 4
o’clock, the death angel visited the
home of Mr.and Mrs. C. J. Lutz
and bore away their precious little
daughter, Mary Kate. She had
only been sick a short time, but
had a complication of diseases, She
never was a strong, healthy child,
and when the dreaded typhoid set
up she was no more.
Mary Kate was the most pleas
ing child the writer ever knew:; al
ways in a good humor and never
seemed like anything troubled her.
She was only nine years of age at
the time of her death.
The funeral was held at Sardis,
Thursday afternoon the 14th, Rev.
W. O. McMullen conducting the
services, after which the remains
were lowered into the grave to
await the resurrection morn. The
father, mother and other relatives
have the tender sympathy of the
writer. EUREKA.

Novel Funeral Instructions. |
Curious instructions as to the man- |
ner of her burying were left behind
by an old lady at Stockport, England.
Her funeral, she directed, should be‘
attended by six of the best horsed
coaches Stockport could provide, and
another direction was that after the
interment the funeral party should re
pair to the best Tory hostelry in Old
ham, there to be served with the best
repast the house could afford, which
was to be supplied by a Tory land
lord and served by Tory waiters.—
