JUDGE BENNET’S DECISION
Knocks Out High License All Over the
Brunswick Circuit.
The high license counties of the
Brunswick circuit can no longer be
olassed among the prohibition coun
ties.
Tne law has been smashed into
;micbereer-s by a decision rendered by
Judge Joseph Bennet in the case of
Nat Solomon in Coffee county.
The case against Solomon was made
on the high license law and came up
some time age. A demurrer was filed
in the oase and Judge Bennet iDtimat'
ed that he would sustain the demurrer,
tut the solicitor ask him to bold h a
decision until Hon. Leon A. Wilson
could submit a brief on the ease against
the demurrer. The b:lef was submi .
ted, bat it did not ohange Judge Ben
net’s mind, and he sustained tbe de
murrer.
The solicitor and others deoided that
it would be beet to withhold the public
ity of the decision, fearing that lest it
would result in bar-rooms being open
ed wherever small towns could be got
to grant licsnse.
Prohibition agi.avion in C ffee coun
ty has been brought on rtceuily atd
par ies have made complaint that the
eou-t was rather slow in dealing with
totne 1 quor casss in Coffee coun’y and
Solicitor Bennett has deemed it best
to make pubiic ifce rhoisioa of Judge
I
Bennet, rendered ecm : > t.me ego,
This knocks cut all the high lice: so
counties in the Brunswick circuit, of
which there are eight, all but Giyno.
An effort is bsing mode to get the
representatives of the o.igtit oonnties to
bind together and pats a law that will
eland. Of course Judge Benoet’a de
cision is merely concurrent with the
supreme court, which parsed on ihe
sacta p-iu’s in the Irwin couary case,
a similar one to all those in the Bruca
wicb aircoi*.
If n law is not passed at the comicg
session of the general assembly it is
likely‘.hit elections will ba called in
moat of the counties.

HON. CLARK HOWEIi
HAS SHED CONTROL
Atlanta, Sjpt. 12-Tae announce
ment is made today that Clark Howell
has acquired a msj irity of the s'ock of
the Atlanta Constitution, haring pur
chased the fall interest of Colonel W,
A. Hemphill in the company. This,
with Mr. Howell’s present shares gives
him a majority of the stook, valued at
SSOO 030. Mr. Howell has been in edi
torial control of the paper for ten yearr,
succeeding Henry W. Grady as man
aging editor, and now becomes presi
dent of the oompany.
K )by Robinson, a well known young
Alanta business man, purchased one
fourth interest in the paper owned by
the Banigan estate. * Ha soooeeds Mr.
Hemphill, who hat**? t connected with
The Constitution for 30 years, at busi
ness manager on January 1.
Colonel Hemphill retires because he
feels that after a life of business activ
ity he has earned a rest. The most
cordial personal relations exist between
him and the new management. He
will not re-enter bnsinese, at least for
the present, and contemplates a six
months’ trip to Europe.
It will ba remembered that two years
ago lioby Robinson and Mr. Clark'
Howell undertook the reorganizttion of
The Constitution Publishing Company
on a $1,000,000 basis, They very
promptly placed its securities and
since then the paper has done even bet
ter than wae expeoted and the past
year has been the best in is history.
Mr. Hemphill will devote Limaelf, so
he say*, to literature, recreation and
travel. The announcement of change
of management was a big surprise to
Atlantiars. The price paid by Mr.
Howell for Mr. HsmpbiL’s interest in
the paoer is not given to the pnblio,but
it is believed to bs SBS 000
BRANTLEY ON WELLINGTON.
Says That There Can Be Nothing But
Scorn Felt For Him.
The Atlanta Journal wired distir,
gnished men all over the country for
expression of opinion regarding Sena
tor Wellington, of Maryland, whose
brutal remarks about President Mc-
Kinley crused so much indignation.
Among tbose who replied was Con.
gretsman Brantley, who wired:
Brum.-wick, Ga , Sept. 10.
To To i Journal:
Toare oan ba nothing but scorn and
oont-mp. among 11 good oitz-.nsfor
any mm using the language attr ibnted
to Senator Wellington, and for his
sake as well as that of the American
people. I it will bs found that he
did not nea it. In as much as under
the constitution each bouse is rriide
the judge of the qualifications of its
own members, I doubt the propriety of
a member of the house a r emptiog co
(it in judgement on ihe qualifications
of a senator. I would how
ever, that the‘greatest danger in ex
pulsion is in the precedent establish* and.
Etch expulsion becomes a preesdem
and 83 precedents o' ten tiuiis arise eo
plague us it is unwise to moke themiu
moments of exoicernsuts or to make
[them at, all unless imperatively de
manded, There is ample urns to de
termine what ehail ba done with Wel
lington if upon investigation be is
found guilty. W. G Brantley.
