Early thas morning efligiws were feund hanging at a promi hem) place in this city of the Hon.. 1 . Sterling Merton, secretary of agri culture, and hia son, Carl Morton, bearing the inscription “Compli ments of the Democratic Marching Club.” It ia not known who did th work, The deed is the culminating of ang or on the part of many prom inent democrat! on account of the Nebraska appointments made by Secretary Morton, whose homo is here, and particularly the appoint ment of William Pfiaeging to a lu crative position in the packing house here. Pfiaeging resident oi the republican club here and was given the place over a hard work-- ing, honorable democrat who wa , endorsed by all the leading d’mu crate here. Many democratic politicians came out in interviews condemn ing the appointment and declai ing it meaut the loss of many democratic votes. Carl Morton said: ‘‘l don’t car who kicks.

WHEN MAYOR DUNCAN AND THE EDITORS MBKT. Lexingtow Ky., February 16 Mayor Duncan, of Lexington who is also the editor of The Press of this eity, comes out in a card this morning that smokes in every line. The Transcript and Leader, yesterday contained editorials criticising the mayors conduct in the matter of awarding a contract for brick streets, charging that h> was the payed attorney of ths company which received the con tract. Mayor Duncan replies by calling the editors of these two paper* “malicious liars eowards curs ten • agades“ and everything else that is contemptible. The indication are that when the parties meet i u the street there will be blood sheu as all have more or less of a fight ing record. The Womans Foreign Mission ary Society of Ist.

BELIEVE ATKINSON GAINING I : Ground Every day, Georgia Politics as Viewed ky the Constutlon's Washington Correspondent. I Y ekterday’s Atlanta Constitu tion, contained tbefollowsng from its Washington correspondent. A* will be seen all of the stats re presentatives hope to be returned and they believe, also, that At kinson is gaining ground. The Georgia delegation here is beginning to take a good deal of in .erest in the political situation in leorgia The members are partic ularly watching the news as print 'd in the Georgia papers about the gubernatorial and senatorial races Senator Colquitt’s health is im proving and nearly all the inm ■ lersofthe delegation are of the opinion tbat he is going to make a very strong race for re election. In regard to the gubernatorial race the members of the Georgia delegation are rather of the opin ion that General Evans is leading in the race, but they think Mr. Atkinson will put up a much stronger fight than has been gen erally anticipated. Editor Price, of The Macon Telegraph, who was here the other day,was betting hats promiscuous ly that Atkinson would be elected. He found takers every time, how ever, and even refused odds in fa vor of Evans before he left. How ever, he claimed that his reasons for doing so were khat if he won, he would have enough hate to last him for several years, while if he lost, it would eat up rather more of his salary than he cared to ex peed at one time THIY EXPECTED TO BB RB—KLICSKD, The eleven members of the Georgia delegation will all be candidates for re-election from their respectivedi:- tilets, and it is the general opinion here that each and every one of th» m will be returned, from this end of the line it seems that the hardest fight for the nomination will be made against Mr. Moses and Colonel Livingston, though neither of these gentlemen seams at all apprehensive of being defeated, of course, there is going to be a fight against Judge Lawson for nomination, but his friends are very confident that he will win with ease It is not anticipated at this end that there will be any oppm »a io Major Black for the democratic nom ination, bat it is believed that Tern Watson will again oppose him, and the same old eampaign of year - ore last will be had over again, M'j >r Black has, however, been doing some good work for congress and will probably be much stronger in bis I district this time than he was in 1892.
