Fears that Democratic supremacy
May be Endangered by 1t.
AUGUSTA, GA, Oct. 15.-There is con-
siderable disquietude here whenever gossip
takes on local political coloring. Rich
mond's registration law promises to be
boomerang, and some of those who nursed
and Graded the measure and took
pride iii its development are
troubled with dread foreboiings that
it may prove to be loaded at both ends
Several legal lights of greater or less brill
fancy were sounded on the question of the
registration law drawn up for 10 al pur.
poses holding good in congressional aid
presidential elections. They shook their
heads a I'd refused to be interviewed, but
gave it as their confidential opini IN
that such would be the case. Where the
situation pinches is the question of return
ing Congressman George t. Barnes. Rich
mond is the banner county of this district,
and gave him IN round numbers 10000
votes. The registration law reduces
that number to 1000. With Burke
Jefferson and other counties in the distric5
polling heavy republican votes, which Rich
mond cannot offset, the situation would
become embarrassing for Congressman
Barnes friends. JudsOn Lyons (colored) is
spoken of as a republican candidate for
congress.

The Message to Hannibal

The Lewiston, Me-, Journal tells
thus what the telephone said to Han
nibal Hsmlin:
An incident OF the Grand Army
department camp fire in Portland.
Friday night, illustrates the fondness
of old soldiers for joking, and the
equality between members that char
aeterize their annual gatherings.
The venerable ex-Vice President
Hannibal Hamlin, as honored guest
and most distinguished person pre-
sent. was one of the speakers of the
evening. His address was an easy,
ofband talk, mainly upon the pro-
gress and great developments in
science and the arts that characterize
the present century. In the course
of it he said, speaking of the tele-
phone:
And yet perhaps, more marvellous
than all Is that little instrument which
puts Us in communication with those
we love a hundred miles away Ny
wife and your wives have tongues, as
it were, hundred miles long, and il
by that little thing of telephone /
were IN communication with my good
wife at the present moment, / should
hear her saying, Hannibal, be careful
and not catch cold"
An hour or so after this, when the
memory of Mr.. Hamlin's address had
been partly obliterated by speakers
who had followed him, Past Com
mander Sawyer raped to order, and
announced telephone message from
Bangor. All eyes turned in the d.
rection of the venerable Bangor
statesman where he sat surrounded
by bevy of young ladies who were
importuning him for autographs. Mr.
Sawyer continuing, said: Z" Ladies
and gentlemen, We have received
telephone message from Bangor. 1t
says: Hannibal, don't firt with the
girls" The applause that followed
drowned reply.

4 Grave Uncertainty.

4 London correspondent discusses
the German situation as follows:
The uncertainty whether or not
Emperor Frederick Of Germany Is
stricken with E mortal disease is
acknowledged by all parties to be a
strong factor IN the success or failure
Of Mr.. Gosehen's scheme for the con-
version Of the public debt Of Great
Britain. which viii undoubtedly pass
both houses Of Parliament with little
or no alteration of the original bill.
As general rule 1t may be said that
continental securities tend TO con-
form TO the position of British funds,
and the Chancellor of the E1chequer,
who Is certainly well acquainted with
the lines of financial thought In Ber-
lin. Is of the same opinion. On the
other hand. 1t Is argued that the
present anxiety regarding Germany
Is an exceptional one to any that hss
hitherto Influenced Europe.
Emperor Frederick Is an invalid.
whose restoration to health and work
Is hardly regarded as possible. The
p9Ser which has deTolEed upon him
be may at any time be ineapaeitated
from welding, and the leadership Of
Germany may pass from one of the
wisest and most prscient of men to
young Prince, who has hitherto been
known chiefly as the representative
Of passion and prejudice The rela-
tons Of Germany with at least two Of
her neighbors can be kept friendly
only by ssrsre combination of decision
and insight. Perhaps, indeed. they
cannot possibly be maintained upon
peaceful terms. When the internal
affairs Of Germany are full of pit
falls, and particulsrism is BY no
means dead
The following Is from Berlin tsle-
gram Of March q:
The Emperor's decree Of March
2lst, authorizing Crown Prince Viii
liam to represent him IN the transac-
ton OF State business, Is now recog-
nized As tsntsn0unt to the creation
OF q CO regency. Besides the pub
hshed decree, another exists which
gives Crown Prince William fuller
powers II the event of the Emperor
growing worse. Regarding
the real state Of the EmperOr's
health, If Is difficult to obtain au-
EheEtic information Of his private
life, but what Is known Is that he Is
able to take daily exercise In the
and heated conservatory at
ChariOttenburg, receives family visits
and listens to the reading Of official
reports.
