They have some queer ways Of doing
business down in Macon. For instance,
the Republican says:
Among the assets of the Macon Saw.
lngs Bank appears a note of Z. c. ID.
Shortridge. for S6.OOO. This note was
raid of and considera sly overpaid years
ago and Justice to Mr.. Shortridge re-
quires this explanation. We UNDER
stand all parties concede this is the
truth Of the matter
Now up this way cancelled notes are
not usually rated as assets and very
few Of our business men would leave a
paid note of even so small a sum of
5000 lying around in the hands Of a
bank after it was paid off.

There Is considerable complaint re-
gardlng the time the trains stand upon
the crossings on the Wabash. st Louis
& Pacific Railroad at this place. If
there is an abuse in hat particular it
should be corrected. We have an ordi-
nance prescribing the time over which
the crossing shall not oe blocked, and
that ordinance should be enforced. If
the officers we now have will not en-
force the law those should be got who
will. Because 1t happens to be pow
erful company it is no reason that it
should be allowed to infringe upon the
rights of the humblest citizen.
So far as MILAN is concerned, while
he may be very clever gentleman, he
was unknown in the district as a law
yer, and the very fact that the Graphic
stood as his godfather in Adair was
sufficient TO lose him many votes in his
own county. Being unknown abroad,
and unfortunate in having the support
of Doctor Swetnam, he could expect
nothing else than defeat.-LaPlata
Press
The GRAPHIC is not ashamed of the
part 1t took in that canvass, and has
nothing to take back. Whatever the
influence of the GRAPHIC may have been,
it matters not now But this is certain
that two years before, with very
clever Macon lawyer as his opponent,
Judge Ellison carried this county by
nearly 800 votes. while with Mr.. MILAN
as his opponent, with his judicial in
tluence, and the monied ring at his
back he lost the county by 200 votes,
Notwithstanding there were unscfupu-
lous traitors in Mr.. Miilan's own camp;
a change of 500 votes against Judge
Ellison, and an tar0r of his opponent in
this county. Attribute it to what in
fuence you please.
