From the Griffin, Ga, sun.
On tho question of prohibition we win state
this There are four classes of prohibilonists in
Georgia.
/. The third party men, who demand legislative
and constitutional prohibition, and for this they
propose to Aght anything and anybody who oppose
their line of action
.. There are many good prohibitiouists who op-
pose the third party movement, but who favor
legislative enactment banishipg the whole business
from the state without referring the matter back to
the peopley
s There is another part ofthe prohibitlonists who
believe like the second class, but think the matter
should be left to the people to ntify or reject.
l. Lastly, there is class Of prohibitions,s who
favor local optou-that is, allowing each commu-
nifty or county 10 decide the question for itself.
The proprietor of the Sun stauds with Or. Hay
good, Governor ColQu.tt, and other good prohihis
tiouists in the latter class. He has studied the
question through many long years; has had exper-
fence In all departments of temperance work. lie
has worked with the children in the Cold Water
Temple, with the Good Templars the Sons OF Tenn
perauce, Knights Of Jerico, Templars of Honor and
Temperance, United Friends Of Temperance. and
lastly, but not loasly took hand in little poti-
cal prohibition. Afer summing il all up lie places
himSlf-at least for lSSSon the simple platform of
local option the best plnn of procedure for pro
hihtions to adopt In Ssy n this he is looking to
the best interests Of democracy and prohibition the
two banners under which he sails.

Sensation in n Chicago Court Room-A Law

yer dangerously wounded.
CHICAGO, juno IA tremendous sensation
occurred in Judge JameSon's court, shortly
after 10 O'Clock this morning. While tho
docket was being called Mrs. Meckie L. Raw
son was impatently waiting for the divorce
case of her husband, Canker Rawson, to be
called. Colonel II. C.. Whitney, her hus-
bands attorney, was sitting at q side table
writing, when the court was suddenly startled
to hear a pistol, and Colonel Whitney at once
disappeared under the table. The shot was
followed by four more in rapid succession, and
Mrs. Rawson was seen nurSuing Colonel Whit
ney with a Smith 4 WessGn 3S-calibre revolt
YER Mrs. Rawson succeeded in emptying her
revolver at Whitney before she could 10 cap
tured. Two of the balls hit the lawyer, one
taking effect below the groin and the other in
the left leg. The wound near the right groin
will probably DO fatal. Judge Jameson at
once ordered Mrs. Rawson's arrest, sand she
was Immediately taken to Jail.
Colonel Whitneys wounds we're dressed and
he was taken home in a carriage, refusing to
go on a stretcher When the officers arrived
at the Jail with their prisoner, Mrs Rawson
had every appearance of being an insane wo-
man. Her eyes Were red and bloedshot and
she complained of being cold and faint. AS
soon as the search had been completed she be-.
came moro composed. The Jail officers refused
to allow reporters TO see her. 1t is understood
that Mrs. Rawson has been in desperate state
of mind since the appellate court yesterday
refused to grant her solicitors fees, and said,
in passing upon the merits OF her pending di-
vorce suit, that the testimony was ouerwhelm-
ingly against her. 1t is understood that Mrs.
Rawson claims that Lawyer Whitney trumped
all the testimony which went to show that she
had been guilty OF infdelity to her husband.

indicted for the attempted murder yesterday

Rawson is still under intense excitement.

BY reason of his skillful maneuvering and
great adroitness, Mr.. Billings had lived to the age

A Frightful Wreck the Louisville and

FRANKLIN, Ky, May 29.-[Special.l -One of
the most disastrous wrecks that ever occurred
on the Louisville and Nashville road occurred
about two miles from this city this evening,
caused by the explosion of the boiler on freight
train No II. Henry Quinn, the engineer, was
killed instantly, and his mangled remains
were found in field some distance from the
wreck. His home was in Bowling Green.
Lewis Richardson, fireman, was fatally in
jured, as was also, George Farley, brakeman.
The dead and wounded were brought to this
city. An eye witness to the explosion, q boy,
was at work at a! cornfield near by. He says
that the engine was blown up into the air

From the Calhoun, Ga, Times.
Sam Small has retired to private life doubtless
wiser than before he gave birth to his thlrd
party He has learned that his church don't follow
him in his political movements. man whIe
preaching has all the best people to back him, but
when he enters politics he must go it alone and
paddle his own canoe.
From the Darien, Ga, Gazette.
Hon. Walter B. Hill, one OF Macon's strong
prohibitionsts, is out in 'open letter" advising
the Georgia delegation to the St. Louis democratic
convention to declare for prohibition. We think IT
would be good idea to let our delegation manage
its own affairs. They have nothing to do with the
prohibition question.
From the Vadosta, Ga, Times.
The difference between Sam Small's party
and the majority of Pringles late convention is the
proyerbal difference between tweedledum and
tweedledee-or the difference between national
party and state party. Perhaps the real difference
was limited at by Judge Pendleton, of Atlanta, when
he protested against reformed drunkards taking the
Iead.
From the Fort Valley, Ca, Mirror.
w. B. Hill, of Macon, is trying to
have the prohibition question considered by both
national conventions so as to have them in their
platforms to provide for its submission to the
people,
Mr. Hill is clearheade gentleman of pure re-
Esious character public spirited and patriotic, but
Ibis method of promoting temperance-should the
two parties adopt it's almost sure to bring failure
and disaster to his cause. Sam Smals third party
presents brighter prospect and that is ne prospect
at all. Dr. Haygood gives some sound advice to
the prohibition party, which it would do well to
follow. He saw from his Texas prohibition CAM
paign that spreading the question, so to speak,
over q state too much to carry at one load and
to submit it to the vote of the United States seems
is little short of folly the democratic party is to
lose by keeping the temperance question outside,
let its losses inure to the third party Temperance
and politics have affinity for each other and
should be kept apart Let the people have local
option, as they have, to close the saloons. To re-
form drunkards the Bible and the grace of God,
and to save the youth of our country from the
destroying vice, home training aud Sunday school
instructions are the saving and efficacious means

The Texas Tornado.

From the New YORK Herald.
The tornado reported from Texas is the sec
ond or third storm of the type which has occurred
during the present season. The development OF
tornadoes is largely dependent on the presence of
the vapor laden tropical air current which, travers-
ing the gulf coast, is drawn inland and projected
northward. The fewness of deadly tornadoes since
February in the southwest and west Is probably
due to the weakness of the tropical current which
may be accounted for by the prevalence of cool
anticyclones in the trans Mississippi region The
outburst of tornado storms Wedne day is an in
dication therefore, that the moist tropical winds
are forcing their way northward the continent
and that summer temperature will soon be estab-
lshed the western plains and in the heart Of the
continent. At the same time it is a monition to
the western states to be on the lookout for more
frequent yisitatons of the tornado than they have
had in the earlier part OF the warm season.
