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, sl.se, but it w r as repassed over th ) veto. In this long fight Senator Evans vo'ed stead ily against the governor and in favor of pardon ing Choice. A bill to abolish trial by jury and a vote to repeal all laws ap preprinting money or aid by lh 0 State to educational purposes are among the incidents of the seua tor’s legislative career.

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.

(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.
