Thk average Atlanta beer guzzler now feels oblidged to drink a quart at a time instead of a hall pint, just to keep from violating the letter of spirit of the local option law. After all it is belived that there . will be a regular Democratic love least in Atlanta when the Gubcrnatori al Convention meets. It is hoped Bio. Felton will be invited to attend- Ik the President loses the support of tne bogus veterans on account of his vetoes, and makes more* certain the supporters ot the genuine, he will still be ahead by a huge majority The Philadelphia Record states: ••In the Uuited States the liquor men have eight trade papers, while the prohibitionists Irove 121) publications. But then the liquor men talk over G, 000 bars in the single city ot Philadel phia." The Alabama prohibitionists arc nbout to make a mistake. They ought to kuow that prohibition snccaeds best where it is kept free from polit ical complications. Can it ho true that many of tho leading Alabama prohibitionists aio only oflico seekers In disgnUc. Some of the State papers are anx to have a law passed nimilui to tliet in folCc iiiring the war, limiting the tho planting ot cotton to live acroa to the mule. Some of thors papers will next want a law limiting the people to the use of rye coffee ami sorghuui long sweetening, It is gratifying to note that our State contemporaries are begining to let up on polities and to devote more attention to snake stories. The snake editors of the Georgia papers have not done their duty this yeaa, though It ia possible that they have not bean very well supplied with the 'antidote. Gov. McDaniel is one of tho hap piest men in the State. He kept out of the campaign, and now he can re tire iu dignity and peace to the shade «*f his own scuppernong vino and Bp l*le treo. * A It looks as if Robert Taylor will not have the chance to engage in a fraternal strife with his brother Al fred for the Governorship of Tennessee.

The Stlfke at dole City- The inauguration ul the strike at Cole City last Monday by the con victs is a matter that deserves tho sc verest denunciation from both press and people. In all that have yot oc cu re Hover the entire country, it has no paralell in insolence. It is simply an outtage upon law and order, and I should be suppressed with but little or no mercy to a single participant. If the best andsof our society and conn try must bo alone considered,the in stigators o! tho offence should suffer caipital punishment. If the overseers of tho Dade Coal Company bad been acousttmed to treat them with harsh and inhuman rules and manners, there might have been an ameliorating excuse for the oiVenco. But the treat ment and care they have received has been to the direct contrary. No re port from any convict camp or lease in the State has shown equal in point of care and health as the one from Dade. In fact tho manner and care that the Dade Coal Company has ex ercised over its convicts received a very high tribute of commendation from Dr. Felton, the bitted oponent of tho system, in the last session of the Georgia legislature. Every report that has bean made to the Grand Ju ries ot our county ht:9 exemplified the greatest care and humane treat niant from both Company and the ant ployees. Propperand sufficient cloth ing and food has at all times been sup plied; and they have received constant and the very best medical atiention. In all, there is not a finer, truer, more courteous, and kinder disposed lot of gentlemen a uywhere than those in the employ of the Dade Coal Company at Colo City. No question now presents itself to tho minds of the American people fraught with wider and deeper interest than the suppression of the liquor traffic. While this is true, yet it is amusing to see the folly often display ed by tho friends of tciuperanco move ment, In tact, it often appears that those who champion the cause have only in view their own political preferment. But, on tho whole, we may safely conclude those two characters predominate moro or loss in many of the loaders and champions of that cause. It is evident that the tenipcjance people of Alabama are strongly possessed of one or both of thoso characteristic, or something else stiongly allied to them. It has not only been tested and demonstrated that adopting a platform and nomi nating a ticket solely and stiictly on tho temperance issue is a failure, but the least intelligent view of the ques leads to ihe same conclusion. It is the hight of folloy to suppose that eutficiaut strength can be drawn from the two political parties, or either one of them, of our country to constitute a majority upon one sole idet and issue. Without doubt, no existing evil has gieatcr baneful effects upon the society of our country, than the liquor traffic, yet its suppression is not the pivot upon which turns om indi pondcnce, liDeities, and the judicious administration of our ciyil .-affairs. N>i is it necessary to the success ol the temperance canse to organi ;.e a party upon the issue and incorporate iu the platform oth-r general is sues. The movement is strongly and bitterly antagonized, and the ballot box upon that sole lss le in the hands of tlie people is the surer t me;»s to win it's final a id lasti ig vStory. ’ XjTHt cech State separately settle the matter according to the wishes of her peo ple.

Two others, Ed and Uarve Uartnoss were considerable carved up with knives. The facts gathered as follows: Till! CAUIK OK THK THOL'RI.K. Roll Whitmore is the father of an illegitimate child by Mai ion llart ness’s daughter, a girl of fifteen years. Whitmore was a few months ago married to a young lady by the name ot Hughes, and had induced the mother of the child to give it to him to raise. She, on the day before the night of tha killing, askek to ba\» t lie child sent to see, her, which re 7; quest was complied with. Tho child was carried by Roll- Whitmoae’s mother in the morning, with instiuc to bring the child home in tho after noon. Being refused the child by its mother, Mrs- Whitmore informed the boys of the situation. TUB JAM. TO AIIMS. Roll, together with his brother, Wrshingtoa,, armed themselves with douole- barrel-shot-gnus, and salting to the home of Hartness, said they would kill tho whole d—d set or have the child. Their father, George hit more appealed to them not to go; that he would get the child and save a bad fight. The hoys would not liscd the old man, until, when abotit one hundred yards of the house of Hartness, he persuaded them to stop until he could go and see what could be done, lie was informed by the brothers ot tbc girl that it was her intention to keep the baby, and that thep did not leel called upon to foice her to give it up. Whitinoro begged them to give it up and save trouble and murder. He went back to his boys and told them what was said. They became enraged, and proceeded to the li iuse. When within the yard they were warned not to come iu the house. MET RY POWDER.
