The people oi Banka county are vary much dissatisfied with the way the nomination for representa tive was made and an independ ent will he out. The names of B. F. Suddath and Judge A. C. Moss have been spoken of as probable canlilates for the place.—[Ban n r-vVatchman. It is true that there is consider able dissatisfaction among some wilh regard to the work of the con vention, but no candidate has for mally announced in opposition to Mr. Coggins. It is not at all prob able that J inige A. C. Moss will be a candidate, but it is more than likely Mr, Suddath will. We had an interview with the latter gen tleman on the subject one day last week. He states that he has no desire, whatever, to re-enter poli tics; that he does not want any of fice, and that he holds Mr. Cog g'ns in the highest esteem person ally, but that he has received nu merous and strong solicitations to enter the race as the candidate of the people; and it is entirely with his friends. If they assure him that he is the choice of the people, he will make the race in defference. It has been suggested that a mass meeting of the citizens of the county be called, to take into con sideration the advisability of plac ing another candidate in the field. The dissatisfaction that has grown up out of the work of the convention was foreseen by the Ob server, and we insisted that no nomination be made at present. Something will have to be done to harmonize the party into line. A Brutal Crime and its Results, From a gentleman who lives near Qn if man, we learn the following par* tronlars abont one of the moat brutal and revolting crimes that has ooauried io the state in a long lime: L ai* C. Lane, a well-known drum' rner of Bavan&b, who formerly . liyed io Quitman, and wb >se mother still resides Here, was on a visit to be mother. On laat Sunday evening he wrote a not# to a yonng lady acquaintance, Mias Arriagton of Qoltmsa, inviting bor to taka a ride with him. She told her mother she did aet ears te go. nor mother insisted ea bet daughter's tak ing the ride, as she thought. it wonld be treating the yoang man rather rode ly, and anowered the note farther daughter. * * * After Lane had driven oat of town be a*ked the yonng lady to kiss him. She requrs.sd him to takt her back, and commenced erying. Lane bsggvd her pardon, and eontlnned aatil they reaohed a creek, when he teld her his design, and seined her. She resisted with all her might. * * • The yonng lady begged him to kill her and throw her body in the ereek, as ah# did not want to return to Quit man. Ht finally agreed to carry her baek if ebe would not tell on him. Am toon at she reaehed home she told her mother, who cemmnnioated with her husband. Mr Arrington consnlted bis brother in law, Mr. Williams, who advised the killing of Lane, They went armed to Lane’s mother's and called Lane oat. Mr. Arrington told him he bad come to kill him. His mother jumped between end prevented Mr Arrington from shooting. The sheriff and other eitizens son gathered and Mr. Arrington wae tak ea off. Lane was lodged in jail The people were eo greatly aroused they had determined to lynch Lane Monday night. To prevent this Sheriff McNeil and Mr. James Thrasher started to Thom with the prisoner. This was snspected by the oitizene and every street had been watched. They slipped out a private way, hot they had not been gone long before the discovery was made. The father and others started in hot pursuit. Five miles from town the father and friends overtook and sur rounded them, and came meeting the prisoner in the road. Sheriff MeNeil gave the prisoner a pistol and told him to defend himself. Mr Arrington emptied the contents of a doable-bar rel shot gun into the prisoner. Lane shot onetime at Mr. Arrington, hot without effect, and then dropped dead. Mr. Arrington then esme up and placed hia gun at Lane’s head, and emptied the other barrel into his bead, tearing it all to pieces;—[Thom asvitle, oa., Enterprise.;- • Public Grange Meeting. Dear Editor Observer:—A'i re quested by you to give au account of the meeting announced in a previous number of the Observer, will say that Mr. Kimbrough of Catania, Hariie Cos., oa., met quite a number of Banks’ intelligent ladies and gentlemen at Nails Creek orange, 19tb, and secured the quiet and undivided' attention of the audience for one hour and a half, by onqef the beat -and appropriate address es we bare ever heard f*om a farmer. He reviewed tbe present concfition of agriculture in the Sooth and North* West; noted the causes of the depres sion of the farmer and showed how trs grange Is coming nobly to the front ia all parts of the baited Sratee. Not by knocking down |nd dragging oat other professions, nor fighting tho mer chants and railroad companion, bat by a steady and persistent co-operative ef fort in improving nil tbs conditions bearing apoa the agricultural interests. No profession, societies nor in Lid sals were antagonised, bat indnetry sad energy were commended in all or dvrs which have for their object tbs im provement of the country and the ad vancement of eoeiety. He urged all honest nnd intelligent farmers to nnits with the grange, because, with twenty years experience and its national char actor and influence, it ia the best or ganisation in the world for farmers. Mr. Kimbrough is a good nun and one of Harris county's most prosper ous farmers, and an influential citizen. He is also lookisg after the interests of tbs Chstahoocbs Talley Exposition to be held in Olnmbn*, eommencii g 4: h of October If not providentially hindered Mr K mbroagh will be in Homer on Fri day 27th inst., and if arrangements an be made, will deliver an address on Hgiicultare, e'c ,<* night. When Mr. Kim trough had finish., 4' his lecture, Mr. J. N Coggins was in troduced, and in a short speech, heart iiy endorsed every word of the speak er and gave his views upon the tariff and its influence upon agriculture; also stated his opinion of the issnes coming before the next legislature. A notable feature of the occasion was the absence of the public dinner, usually so common on sack occasions. This, however, was pnrpoeely avoided so that the ladies of the oommonity wonld not be so burdened with the la bor and cares of a publio dinne*, th: t thay could enjoy the meeting, a promi nent part of which was dedicated to them. We hope the delightful rain which began to fall before the meeting c'osed, •o helped the withering crops, and re vived the spirits of those present, as to make up for the absence of the social dinner.
