| up TO ard through the spring terms Of the
several courts. The fall terms OF the courts
VIII run the number ap to at least 4, 0UO cases.
/ A record OF over three cases for every d ~
! since h has been on the bench is one that
any man might feel proud OF.
| Their is a little row in the Twelfth sena-
| tnriSl Iii tr,ct, imposed OF Stewart, Web

/ explained uY the stewart county members
| Of the executive mnfrtse: an the for
nation IF the district it was agreed by and
between the people ut the counties compos-
! ing the Twelfth senatorial district that the
nomination for senator should lie by rota-
| ton, Stewart having the right TO present a
senator twice to the other counties one
time. It was also arranged that represen-
tston in the senatorial convention should
be ten delegates from Stewart. five from
Webster and Ave from Quitman. This IS
what Stewart has always insisted on. The
members from Webster and Quitman now
say that since Stewart has lost ono repre-
sentative in the legislature this compact is
broken and that Stewart is entitled to no
more delegates and no more consoles alton
in tie matter Of senatorial representation
than either of the others"
There are now symptoms of a lively
political time in Glynn county this fall.
There are four candidates for the legislature
already in the field, and the worst feature
Of the case is that each Of them has no in
siGuiiic nat amount of following. NJ ]. Jim
Postell Of st. Sinons, is up az an independ-
ent democratic candidate against William
II. Fulton, the regular nominee of the
party, while the Hon. J. J. Spear was the
first candidate in the field who was placed
in nomi lation by the pIohibitionists, who
claim that they will only support canal
date pledged to vote for state prohibition If
the question comes before the legislature.
But the latest phase of the question is the
nomination of a negro republican, Alex
ander Atkinson, by the lorel republicans
of the county who shrewdly argued that
with the democratic forces so split up as
they are, there Is chance for them to
break through the weakened lines and re-
turn one of the Jim Blues to the legislature
next session.
Tho Southern Recorder says at is
great mistake, when visiting the state fair,
for country people to crowd the going, the
sight seeing and the returning all into one
day A portion of the grounds should be
set apart for those who would like to stay
two or three days or more. Provision
should be made for supply Of water, and
police arrangements made for keeping the
ground in order. This is done at all the
great fairs in the eastern, middle and west
eru states. Then those who go in covered
wagons, or with tents, could keep house and
have a fine time generally-being indie
pendent and in no hurry to get away. The
women could prepare, before leaving home,
bread, boiled ham, chickens, etc A small
camp fire would answer for making tea and
c,fHee and cooking potatoes. And some
dry wood stored away in the wagon, in case
of rain, would fill the bill. In this way
few neighbors could go to the fair, see
everything without hurry or WEAKNESS, and
have jolly good time"
