Ring or no Ring,

Dem ocrats ought not to be deceived
with the side Issues that are entering
into the campaign for the election Of
delegates to their State Convention
The Issue Is entirely between two men
for the nomination for Governor. Ed
win r. Cochran Is the candidate OF the
National aud State administration, and
Benz amin T. Bggs is the candidate OF
the larger portion of the Democracy.
William Herbert, DR.. Swlthen Chan
dler and j. Wilkins Coooh, though
either of them would no doubt accept
the nomination, will be used as mere
feeders for E. B. Cochran's guberna-
torial mill. 1t can scarcely be doubted
that whatever delegates either Of these
gentlemen named may get, will be con-
veyed to Mr.. Cochran after q compli-
mentary vote has been given them by
their followers. The tendency will be
to vote with the strong side, and there
Is no going around the fact now that
the Administra.io ion party, to which Mr..
Cochran belongs, has the advantage. 1t
can hardly be expected that delegates,
when they find there is no further Use
In voting for the candidates for whom
they were chosen, will go over TO the
side in opposition to the administration
with its patronage to distribute. 1t
will be hard indeed even for Mr.. Biggs
to get his own delegates to si * to him
under these sdverse influences. Demo.
Gratis who are really opposed to the ad-
minls.ration and the ring that sup
ports 1t, can only give potency to their
opposition by voting directly for Blggs
delegates. Every half way measure in
the present !nstsp,e will only benefit
one side, and that side the one to which
the voter is mos. opposed. The issue
amongst the Democrats is ring or no
ring. All in favor OF the ring will
vote for Cochran delegates. All sim
cerely opposed TO the ring will vote for
Biggs delegates, and all who are OPP
posed to the ring and vote for delegates
for any other candidates will be voting
virtually in favor OF the ring. This is
about as plain as the question can be
put.

THE GEORGIA Democratic State
Convention meets to-day to nominate
candidate for Governor. Mayor Bacon
and General Gordon are the nominees,
and the latter will wln.. This will
practically end the contest. The State
election, when candidates are generally
supposed to be elected, will only go
through the form of confirming the
action Of the convention. There will
be neither an Independent nor Re-
publican candidate In the field to OPP
pose him, though the Independents and
Republicans comprise large majority
Of the voters. 1t will be very peace
able and quiet election, as neither the
Independents nor the Republicans will
isre to put ticket in the field and
advocate it as If they were in earnest.
They have long ago come to the conclu-
sion that while they can live under
laws the Democrats can live under,
there Is no use for them to risk their
lives in bringing on. ticket OF their
own.

THERE SEEMS TO be an unusual
number OF deaths from lightning this
season, scarcely day passing without
the record OF two or three such deaths
recorded in the exchanges. In most of
the cases the victims are said to have
been driven to take shelter under trees
1t is very natural, however unwlse 1t
may be, for persons in thunder storms
TO seek shelter under trees, and yet 1t Is
certainly very unwise to do 30 A little
wetting would do no harm compared
with the risk Of death by lightning, but
as people will seek shelter from storms
1t would be well for them TO avoid tall
trees and those in exposed situations
The interior instead OF the edge Of the
woods, and small tree instead Of its
tall neighoor, should be preferred In
any electric storm.

SQUIRE NANDEGkIFT may have
had, as he thought, sufficient reasons
for releasing the three men arrested on
the oath of Warren Harper for selling
fruit illegally, according to the market
ordinance, who plead not guilty, and
for making the man who plead guilty
pay the costs in his case, amounting to
over four dollars, though the violations
were the same, but the public will fail
to see the difference. AS the csss now
stands, the man who pleads guilty is
fined, while the others, equally guilty,
get clear of the cost by denying their
guilt. Il hardly looks fair, but per-
