Steve Clay most positively declines to allow the use of his name for the unexpired term o Senator Colquitt. The Tribune semis to be exper iencing that tierd feeling. Why does it n»t give us a few verses on the “Seven to • ne” Evans line? Max slippea his “muzzle" las Sunday but the Evans Club, oi which h* is both papa and wet nurse is “fixing his mouth agin." What a shame! Judge Maddox will have no op position for renomination. Mr Everett was spoken of for awhile as a possible contestant, but h> says now that ho will not be in the race.—Calhoun Times. The Athens Banner records the fol lowing: A remarkable woman has been found. Mrs. II Guptil, a dress maker, was a witness in a case at Grand Rapids several days ago, and refused to testify until ene of the law yers removed the gum he was ehew ing. - From the te!< grams that have poured in today, Judge Branham is the tin i ver sal choice of all North Georgia and as United States sen a'tor would reflect honor on the entire South. Joel Branham would illustrate Ge rgia statesmanship like a Beu llill. No man had a more uuam imous or enthusiast ic endorsement from the citizens of his home city for any position than that which is accorded Judge Joel Branham by rhe people of Rome for the abort term in tue United States senate. A Cochran. Ga., man has made a bet of SI,OOO to $250 that Atkin son will not carry forty counties in the State—Calhoun Times.

Pol lard or M*. Breckinridge. They appear to b< a pair of shameless prostitutes who by s ire turn of fate drifted together. They are well mated, even though they have never wed.” Alia Kent, the fiance of Justice White, is a very pretty woman with blonde hair and blue eyes. Her home is in Washington, so the weddmg will take place there. Rumor had it that she was Mr, White's first and on y love, and that he has been tr.i* to her memory, and now claims her as - '** ter long years of constancy, Mr. White is a Catholic, bachelor, a very quiet man. and averse to societv. Breckenridge claims now that Miss Pollard was the aggressor, he. says that she hounded Dim night and day and set beartraps for him and ruined him. It is a lamentable states of aflaira wherein our congressmen are not free from the machinations of innocent school girls of 17. They are a deadly foe, it would seem, to the immaculate purity of tlie white rouesof the sap‘iol.—Macon New° BEATS FREE COINAGE A F onda n an recently purcha* <d a small orange grove, shortly rfierwards, while digging near the • oolsof an orange tree, he un earthed a small box containing a quantity of gold Spanish dollars. —Waycross Herald. Ws want a large grove of trees 'hat will bear such fruit as that. It beats free coinage of silver. — dar e''a Journal. The Marietta Journal look) g on from a non partizm stanu point says: Both of'he Demo irats for Governor, Evans and At kinson, declared in their Griffin speeches, that they were for the “free and unlimited coinage oi silver."

THE LATE SENATORCOLQUII His public career was a long ana successful ou», and from the be ginning to the end of it there is n.. blot upon the record he made, Hii purposes were high and his mo tives pure If he made mistaker they were honest ones He adopted no course in political fortunes His sole aim was to promote th** public good and advance the well fare of the people. He was a sol dier, statesman and a leader —a good man, who will be missed and mourned. He served his state well and Georgians will not scon forget him.—Savannah News. All Georgians mourn the death of Senator Colquitt. He was a man of great personal magnetism, and no man in the state had a stronger hold upon the love and confidence of the people than he had during the last years of his eventful life and up to the day of his death. He died in the service of his peo pic.—Americus Times-Recorder. Those that knew him could but admire him for his genial na'ure and charming social qualities. It is probable that no man in Geor gia had more or warmer friends than be, and few.if any occupy s more prominent plase : . nahs of the bt.-i.te. —II- n - <o ws. The heritage of such-lives en iches history and blesses their descendants. They may have made mistakes and the people at times may Laye been estranged.
