Kreckel in the United States Circuit
Court has denied the habcas corpus Pc
tition of the Judges of the st, Clair
County Court, thus leaving them in jail
for the present. Suit was commenced in
1882 in the Federal Court to collect a
bonded Indebtedness OF $4,000 from st,
Clair county. The County Court refused
to pay either principal or interest, claim.
ing that the debt was fraudulent, the
bonds having been given for aid in the
construction OF railroad in 1870, and
which, as Il matter OF fact has never yet
been constructed. Judgment was rem
dercd against the county after a long le-
gal contest. The county court still re.
fuses to make n levy and the judges were
held in contempt and have since been
confined in jail. The petition for habeas
corpus averred that the order of the
Federal Court would not be complied
with inasmuch as the state law prohib-
its such tax levy under heavy fine.

Speaking for the people Of Georgia, he
said that while they desired q just re.
vision of the tariff and the abolition OF
the revenue system, they did not wish
TO crush American manufacturers or to
reduce the compensation OF American
labor. He quoted from the Democratic
National platform OF 'Si, and said that
he and his State stood on that squarely.
Under it tariff reduction must be carried
out so us not to injure home industry,
Let the South, he sud, adopt the policy
that had enriched the north. Let the
iniquitous internal revenue system be
repealed and the tariff revised so as to
impose higher rates on luxuries and
lower rates on necessities, us demanded
by the Democratic platform Of 'S4, upon
which the only Democratic President
had been elected in twenty-five years.
The Senate then proceeded to the
consideration OF the differentiation bill
which Mr.. Allison said, was the unani'

Finance. The bill, of twenty-seven
printed pages, was read at length.
