The question is frequently rails
ed, "will the Americus, Preston
and Lumpkin railroad, now being
built, t,injure Dawson's trade?" We
think not. BY the time the farm
ers along the line of that road load
up their cotton, haul it to the de-
pot and pay the freight on it to
Americus they will find it cheaper
and better to come right along to
Dawson at once, where they will
always get as much for cotton as
in Amerieus.

The Ohio Election.

The Atlanta Constitution Of
last Tuesday, in anticipation of
the results of the election in Ohio
on that day, says: The great skir-
mish gun of the November battle
will be fired to-day. From this
time forward every soldier will
sleep on his arms and every pick
etwill be alert and watchful. It
may be we'll to think about the
election in Ohio, and the lessons it
will carry, before the ballots are
cast. In the first place. it is adj
mitted that tho vote will be a full
one. On a full vote the republi-
can majority has ranged from
$4,000 to 10000. Any previous
falling off from these figures has
been due to falling off in the
general vote a full vote being
assured, the republicans should
carry the state by at least 25,O00
majority. Anything short of that
will represent republican defec-
ton, desertion and democratic gain.
The democrats might congratulate
themselves if they cut the repub-
lican majority down to $4,000 or
even 10000 votes. A republican
majority of 10000 or $4,000 would
be decided democratic victory.
A republican majority of 5000 or
5000 would mean the inevitable
defeat of Blaine in November. 1t
would show percentage Of loss
that would give us New York by
$4,000 and Indiana by 10000
and Connecticut by 5000.
The sudden and unexpected re-
turn of the Blaine hippodrome to
Ohio is subject to two interpreta-
tions. 1t may mean land we in
cline to this opinion), that the
Blaine managers have become
alarmed and have hastened back
t. save the state. 1t may mean
on the other hand that they are
simply trying to push the MAORI
ty up to unprecedented figures.
IN either case it is certain that the
republicans have concentrated eve
rything on Ohio. They have sent
both their candidates
careering through the
state in the most shameless way.
They have covered every stump
ten deep with speakers. They
have poured money into every
neighborhood. Their strikers and
repeaters infest every city. An
army Of ofice-holdors, released
from the departments, swarm in
every county They have made
their supreme effort in Ohio, and
n falling off in their majority will
thus become doubly significant
AS for our opinion, that follows
the argument male obove. We
hope for everything and shall be
surprised at nothing. We shall be
more than satisfied if the majority |
ranges at $4,000 or below. We |
shall be happy if it hits somewhere
near 10000. We shall be iubi-
liant if it falls to 5000. And, if bv
one of those revolutions that hon
est public sentiment sometimes
makea against official thievery and /
raGcality, the state should actual
y 60 democratic, even our bic
new building won't be big enough
to hold us, and our late big trade
issue won't be big enough to carry
the ROSTERS the occasion would
demand. ,

ONE OF THE SMART ONES.
A COl0red "Gemman" who Lives on the
Taxpayers. although he Is Said to be
"Well Fixed'' Financially.

1t is reported that there is is COL
ored man at the hospital who gained
admission by swearing positively that
he had no property and was destitute,
yet he is alleged to own quite a snug
lot of real estate in San Francisco.
THAT is just what we have suspected
all along-that persons not entitled to
them availed themselves of the bene-
fits of the hospital at the expense of
the taxpayers. Of course, no one is
to blame for this except the appli-
cants. They appear before the Pro
bate Judge, swear they are destitute,
and he then orders Drs. Miller &
Brown to admit the applicant. This
is strictly in accordance with law.
But the applicants who thus perjure
themselves should be made to answer
for it. If an example were made,
there would be less of this going on,
and the taxpayers would not have
their burdens added to.-ED.

The girl who delivered France from
the English armies, perhaps the great
est heroine of history, is most inter
esting study, and the story of her bat
ties and sufferings, as told by General
Roberts, is romance of bewildering
fascination. The lecture is rare
