feuse of moral insanity. The jury
promptly found Choice guilty of
murder and the court sentenced
him to be hanged. The case went
to the Supreme C >ur , which
scouted the idea of moral insani
ty, and left the murderer to his
fat*. Then Choice’s friends ap
pealed t) the legislature, which at
that time had,or claimed to have,
the pardoning power, and by a
slender majority it passed a bill
to pardon him.
Gov. Brown vetoed the bill in a
powerful State paper. He pointed
out that Webb was an officer of
the law and had been killed for
doing his duty. He declared it a
msst atrocious murder; quoted the
divine edict against murderirs,
and said the corse of God would
rest upon the S'ate which disobey
ed it. Instead of letting the mat
ter rest here, an un iccountable
desire to antagonize 'he governor
seized upon the general assemb y,
and in its infatuation it seemed
to forget Choice’s terrible crime.
An effort was made to pass the
bill over the veto, but failed. Then
the legislature took the extraordi
nary course of resolving that the
governor had no right to vets the
bill. They declared it a 4aw with
out his approval and ordered the
secretary of Slate to file it in Ins
office. The governor vetoed this
resolution, also; but it was re
passed over his vein. Then the leg
istature abondoned its first bill to
pardon Choice and passed another
which pardoned him, but put him
in the insane asylum.
Ths governor vetoed this hili,

veto. In this long fight Senator
Evans vo'ed stead ily against the
governor and in favor of pardon

THE HUSTLER OF ROME. SUNDAY APRIL 8, 1894.
ing wir A bill was brought in to
raise a force of 10,000 volunteers,
which denied the private soldiers
any voice in the selection of their
officers. Senator Poole, of Hall,
who seemed with prophetic vision
to look forward and see what a
glorious historical chatacter the
Confederate private would become,
moved that the infantry privates
should be allowed to vote fer their
field officers, but was voted down.
Then he renewed the motion for
the cavalry privates and was voted
down again. Then he renewed it
for the arti’ery and was again vo
ted down. Then he made a
fourth motion, that ths private
soldiers should, at least, be allowed
to elect bat al ion officers. and on
this called the yeas and nays. Thi
motion was lost and S“uator Ev
ans voted aagainst it. Finally,
G-n. Lawton, then senator from
Cha’hani, cam? to the rescue and |
secured the adoption of an amend
me.t allowing the privates to
choo*e their company officers, and
with this scant concession the bill
became law.

EVEN OLD STEWART,
Has “Come Across’’ And is Now an
Atkinson County.
Richland Ga, April 7. (Special)
The change which has occured in
the sentiment of the people of Stew
art county in the past six weeks ast
regards the candidates for the gov
ernorship, deserves to be handed
down in history.
Six weeks ago, Stewart was con
ceded to General Evans. Now the
conditions are changed. Both sides
claim it and the Atkinson men pre
sent many facts and names to sup
i ort thiir claim. Several bets hare
been made. soils even and some
where odds were given by the Atkin
son men, that the Coweta Statesman
will carry the county.
Here in Richland, an Evans' club
of some sixty odd has dwindled ts an
aggregation consisting of a president
_nd about ten members. This town is
cwncededly three to one for Atkinson
and new converts are being made
both in town and country, despite
the fact that this is General Evans
native county and that he has many
friends here who were his playmates
in boyhood . All a long the General
tnd his friends have considered this
county their’s by virtue, it sung of
some vested right. It is however but
stating the facts to say that at this
juncture the Atkinson forces seem
the most confident as to the result.
The people seem to think that any- (
body might have been born in Stew
art had the circumstances been pro
pitious, but that a person born and |
raised here might have shown his love i
for the county of Lis nativity and
her people by coming back in his
manhood to see them without wait
ing, as has General Evans, until he
became a candidate for high office.
