Floride's Plurality.

There is a good deal of interest outside of
Florida In the election in that state. The
republicans still pretend to believe that they
have chance of carrying it. They count
on pretty full vote of their own party and
hope that the prohibition vote will greatly
reduce that of the democrats. OF course
they viii be disappointed. Florida will give
Mr.. Cleveland and the state democratic
ticket very handsome plura ity
Mr.. w. d. Chipley. the chairman of the
democratic state committee, has had very
careful canvass of the state made, and he
is CO.. fident that Mr. Cleveland's plurality
will be at least II 900, and that the plurality
of Col. Fleming, the democratic candid tie
for governor, will be a few hundred larger
There are some republicans who will vote
for the democratic state officers, but who
will not vote the national democratic ticket
Mr.. Chipley is a man of excellent iudg-
mont and wide information respecting the
polite II situation in Florida. He is also a
very conservative man, and there is not
much danger that his estimate will not
prove to be pretty nearly correct.
But because Mr.. Chipley is satisfied that
the state is safely democratic, democrats
should not remain at home on election day
to save themselves the trouble of voting,
believing that their votes will not be needed.
They should all cast their ballots. Mr..
Chipley's estimate is based upon full dem
ocratic vote. If democrats who live at a
distance from the polling places are indiffer-
ent about voting, not only may Mr.. Chip
ley'S estimates not be realized, but the state
may be lost to the democrats. Let every
democrat in Florida, who can, go to the
polls on Tuesday and vote

Sportsman's Luck.

From the SomerUiLle Journal.
The ardent sportsman now we see.
As well equipped as man could be
With dog and gun.
Through rustling leaves he treads his way
And, as he comes, the squirrels gray
All turn and run.
So swiftly they escape at sight
OF him, that, though till night
He tramps about,
He never gets single shot,
And finds. at last, that he has got
To 40 without.
Behold him, then, when shadows fall,
Within the well-stocked market stall,
And see MIN fill
His game-bag to the very brim,
Determined mono shall laugh At him
For lack of skill.
Homeward he goes with soul elate.
The cook serves up at half past eight
A partridge broiled.
But this is his uulucky day.

This bird 10 spoiled"

The MORNING News publishes the demo-
cratic electoral tickets of Georgia and
Florida, in order that democrats may be
sure that the names Of the electors on their
tickets are printed correctly. The above
ticket for Georgia will answer for any
Georgia congressional district by changing
the number of the district and tho name of
the democratic congressional candidate.

Ten days ago the country learned that the
British minister had undertaken to tell Amerl-
can citizens how to vote. 1t has taken the
President all that time to find out that some
thing had to be done about it. AS to the po-

good.
From the Tribune. Nov. t.
There is to-day not a conservative man who
does not regret the indecent haste which has
marked this latest step in the policy OF Mr..
Cleveland's administration.

In Felicity, Ohio, very bad
feeling exists between the races OF
the city. The situation in the Pub
lie Schools of the city is the cause.
The following tells the story: ga
forcible ejectment of colored chill
dren from the schools here two
weeks ago has led to considerable
excitement. Colored citizens went
before the grand jury and had seven
teen prominent citizens indicted for
riot. Friends of the indicted men
have raised funds to prosecute the
colored witnesses for perjury. The
situation is so strained that colored
children are now escorted to and
from school by guards"

THE Georgia Legislature is taking
a more comprehensive view of the
needs of the State in fostering and
sustaining the public schools. On
last Thursday, the appropriation
bill which passed the House, adds
10000, raised by direct taxation,
to the school fund for 1889, and
s33O,00o for 1890. There is prob
ability that the increasing revenue
will give 100000 for the support
OF public schools for 1890. This is
a step in the right direction. Edu-
cation of the people is what is need

COHEN SAYS ECHOLS.

Sampson Cohen, who was terri
bly, beaten at the Covington hotel
at night by an unknown party, Las
sufficiently recovered to tell the
name of the murderer of his friend
Thomas. He says Echols is the
man. That Echols brought the
wagon standard into the room on
his second visit. After they had
finished playing cards, Echols losing
all of his money, they retired to bed,
asking Echols to spend the night
with him which he consented to- do,
undcessed, but changed his mind,
put on his clothes and left. In a
second Thomas and himself were
asleep. He was aroused by dull
heavy sound. Instantly he sprang
up on his elbow and saw Echols
standing beside the bed beating
Thomas over the head with a stick.
II then saw the man reach over to
strike at me; as saw the club de-
scending | threw the cover over my
head, and just then came a terrible
crash over my head. The lick daz-
ed me, and then felt another sting
ing blow and that is the last | can
recall until now,'' said Cohen. He
also says he had S400 in money and
Thomas had more than that. This
places Echols in serious fix asshe
had previously said that he had nc
knowledge of the wagon standard.

1t is not known how much insur-
ance the late Col. Pulsifer, of the
Boston Herald, carried on his life,
but the amount must have been
considerable. His widow has just
received 100000 from one company,
and in acknowledging its receipt,
she said to the agent of the com
pany: "You are the first representa-
tive of the numerous companies in
which my husband was interested to
call on me and settle the claim" If
the companies are very numerous,
and if the amounts all run into the
one hundred thousands, Mrs. Pulsi-
