GOING TO CONTEST.

THE most laugbable, silly and
ridiculous proposition heard Of re-
Gently, is, that General Gartrell is
going to contest the election of Mr..
Stephens. Surely this thug is not
so yet we read of it in the Atlanta
papers. Much love for office, and
disappointment, has surely made
General Gartrell foolishly mad. We
are sorry for Gartrell. If no had
taken our friendly advice he would
not have suffered the modification
Of defeat that has overwhelmed him.
Tho people have spoken, and he
will have to abide the result. Hsv~
ing tried,get the nomination for Gov.
ernor before democratic convention
and failed, he next went before the
people as an Independent and was
defeated, be now casts one long lin
gering look to the Legislature and
asks them to disregard the peoples
verdict, turn Stephens out, and give
him the Governorship. But he will
never be Governor. His waiting
ambition has overIeaped itself, and
he will have to nurse his impatience,
disappointment and wrath with the
best grace possible.

LITTLE RIVER BRIDGE DISASTER.

THE bridge disaster at Little Riv-
err in Cherokee county, Ca, on last
Sunday, was terrible in its results,
some thirty peroons being injured
but fortunately none killed, although
some may die from their injuries.
The crowd assembled on the bridge,
to witness the baptism of quite
number of candidates in the shallow
part of the river, when it gave way
preciptating the people into the wa
ter, falling a distance of % feet.
One poor woman fell with her baby
in her arms. Standing, with the
water to her shoulders, she held the
infant above her head to keep it
from drowning until some one came
to the rescue of both. The bridge
had been newly constructed, and
one of the bolts had not been put
on, which weakened the structure
and caused it to crash beneath the
heavy weight of the many persons
who crowded upon it. The deplora-
BILE affair has created a great sensa
ton in Cherokee and is the theme of
conversation. In another part of
the paper, we give the names of
some of the wounded.

he told several Of his friends that

THE RESULT.

From all indications revealed by
the official returns, it is probable
that Mr.. Stephens majority in the
State will be $4,000. This MAORI
