Tom Watson declares that there

WATSON AND BANKSTON
The “men whococtrol” inside the
democratic party, may be able to
bestow houors upon men agaiust
whom grave charges rest, but the
masses are in favor of the fair thing
and will repudiate it at the ballot
box.
Trox Bankston is a democratic
delegate tc a democratic conven
tion and believes the charges
against Mr Clay should be cleared
up before’ue takes the chairman
ship of a great party. The democra
tic convention don’t agree with
I’rox, and howl him diwn, Har
mony must be preserved,you know
why.—Tom Watson’s Press.
Tommie should tell the whole
story. He should inform his mis
guided following that even Trox
admitted that l.e was thoroughly
satisfied with Mr. Clay’s explains
Hon. \V hut does Tom Watson want
anyhow?
MAJ. BACON ANDRIS CANPAWN
From parties who came in on
the evening train we learn that
Maj. Bacon made one of his mas
terful speeches at Forsyth yester
day. The crowd was large and be-
came enthusiastic from the begin- !
nmg.
Maj. Bacon spoke two hours, 1
and said not a word about Garrard I
and not a word about himself. He
discussed national questions en
tirely. He is making plain to the
people the issues involved in these
great questions.
His speech, pitched upon the
high plane, is clean and clear and
absolutely free from vulgar person
alisms. The simple truth is that
Maj. Bacon is measuring up to the
full proportions of a United Slate;,
senator.
He has put his campaign above
the petty factional and sectional
lines. He is discussing the great
questions of the hour with a pow
er and logic and a sway of elo
quence clear and masterful.
His speeches remind the white
haired fathers of the old days
when we had giants in Georgia.
It is refreshing to the people
to see and hear a man who can
rise above his personal environ
ment and beyond the antagonism
between himself and his competi
tors and stand upon an elevation
where he can discuss from the
broadest possible views the issues
that vitally concern the very life
of the republic. Such a man only
is worthy to be United States sen
ator from Georgia.—Macon Tele

BUSINESS LAW IN DAILY USE
Herewith are the most important
laws, succinctly stated, that touch
the nerds or the average business
man. An observance of them will ena
ble one to avoid many mistakes that
may be serious, and steer the inno
cent from many pitfalls that may be
calamitous. They contain, in few
words, the essence of a large amount
of legal verbiage not always very in
telligible.
Each individual in a partnership is
responsible for the whole amount of
tbe deb'e of the firm, except in cases
of “special ’ partnership;.
Contracts made on Sunday cannot
be enforced.
A contract mape with a minor is
void.
A contrrct made with a lunatic (or
with one who has a general reputa
tion for weak mindeduass) is void
( The latter ease must, however, be
clearly established. )
The acts of one partner bind all
the other partners.
It is a fraud to conceal a fraud.
No consideration is sufficient in
law if it be illegal in its nature.
(Many "failures” are upset be
cause of this law.)
A receipt for money is not al
ways conclusive,
An agreement without consider
ation is void.
The law compels no one to do
impossibilities. (This must be lib
erally construed.)
Ignorance of the law excuses no
one.
Note especially the following,
as affecting the giving and taking
of checks and notes :
A note made on Sunday is void.
A note made by a minor is void.
A note obtained by fraud, or
from a person in a state of intoxi
cation, cannot be collectad. (This
is a corollary to the law governing
contracts with the weakminded.)
Notes bear interest only when
so stated.
If a note is lost or stolen, it d<>e*
not release the maker ; He must
pay it if the consideration for
which it was given, and the a
mount, can be proved.
Signatures made with a lead
pencil are good in law.
A note indorsed in blank is'
transferable by delivery, the same
as if made payable <o bearer.
The maker of an “accommodation
note [one for which he has receiv
ed no consideration, having lent
his name and credit for the accom
modation of the holder] is not
bound to the peison accommod:U• |
ed, but is bound to all other par
ties. precisely as if there was a
good consideration
If the maker of a check or draff, has
changed his residence, the holder
must use “due diligence” to find Lim.
Checks or dr Jts must be presented
or payment “without unreasonable
delay.’’
Ignorance or oversight of or willfu [
inattention to tue a e fundamental in
junctions is tbe frequent source of
annoying and expensive litigation.—
