OUR MODERN WAR GOVERNOR The Savannah News thinks Gover nor Northen wil be accredited with more zeal than judgment Perhaps this is the first prize fight the gover nor ever tried to attend. Dr, Falb, of Vienna, who has been so successful in predicting earth quakes, sajs that New York will dis appear under a tidal wave next July or August, while Florida and Cali fornia may become islands as the re sult of a submarine earthquake. Now is the time for ‘ Comodore” Nortben to call out the Navy. Governor Northen states in an in terview that be did what he believed to be right, and is able to stand any criticism. Those who know the Gov ernor will give him credit for doing what he thought right.—Times Ad vertiser. Governor Northen has gone down ■ear the Floiida line to prevent (so the Atlanta Journal reports) the prize fight between Corbett and Mitchell from taking place in Georgia, provid ed it is prevented in Florida. It is scarcely eonsistext with the dignity of the governor of Georgia to g® scurrying across the country to pre vent a little head-punehing between two toughs. It is not desired by the best people that a prize fight should occur in Georgia, but it is not an in surrection, it is not a not, it is not a lynching—it is nothing that requires the persona) presence cd the gover nor.— Bremen Chronicle.

W H E RE’S THEA RGU M ENT? i They say that Atkinson saved the state in 1892 and ran up a ma jority of 80,000 for democracy Where were Northern, Black, > Grimes, Garrard, Ham aud host»- . of others who went out upon the bustinge and p <cl i ed the Den o r cratic faith?
