Our Next CONGRESSMAN.

Just now the question of nominating a
candidate for Congress from this district is
agitating the minds of our people. In Sc
lecting a man for that high, important and
responsible position, we cannot be too
searching. High character, unblemished by
a single act, untarnished by a single word,
and unshadOwed by single flaw, should be
sought and selected Personal preference
should be laid aside and a man nominated
who can accomplish the most good for the
district.
Upon this high ground, every delegate to
the convention should vote and lend his in
f1uence By following such a course the
success and welfare of our city and the en-
tire district will be greatly advanced and
improved.
The move that has already taken place is
a commendable one This is the selection of
MeSsrs. Dryfus Bros, by the people of
our city and section. as the place to buy
your Clothing and Furnishing Goods.
They have been nominated and elected on
the following platform;
RESOLVED, That we believe in keeping at all
times large and varied assortment of the
latest style, of custom made reliable Clothing,
and that our stock Of Furnishing Goods should
embrace the very latest novelties.
That all goods should be sold at very close
margin.
That small profits make large sales, which is
the sure and only road to permanent success,
and permanent success weare determined TO at
tain
With such a platform it is no wonder
they have showed under all opposition.

Helping the Sight.

During the past week many of our citi-
zens have taken advantage of Prof. Whit
mans stay in the city and have had their
eyes properly fitted with glasses that will
not only preserve their eyes, but make it a
pleasure to use them.
There is no necessity, as long as Prof.
Whitman remains, for anyone to go away
for this class of treatment, especially when
he has every possible appliance and long pro-
fessional experience to aid him in correct
ing the errors so common, and which can be
perfectly remedied by the use of properly
fitting glass. 1t should be clearly under
stood that Prof. Whitman makes no charge
unless he can improve the vision, or furnish
glasses greatly superior to those in use. A
call upon him will convince the most skepti-
cal. Office, ia South Broad street.

DOWNED WITH A HAMMER.
A Bit OF Contention Between Tw
Railroad Carpenters.

A Bit OF Contention Between Two
Railroad Carpenters.
VIM r. Alexander a carpenter in the
employ Of the Savannah, Florida and West
ern Railway Company, came very near
losing his life yesterday at the "new works, -
where he was employed, by blow over the
right eye with hammer in the hands of
,Thos. Griffin, also carpenter, employed at
the same time and place. Alexander, when
Struok, fell unconscious and remained in
that condition for about ten minutes. He
had bad cash over his eye from the blow
and bled .profusely.
When he was restored to Consciousness
and his wound was bathed, he visited the
office OF Justice Warning Russell Jr., aud
had warrant sworn out against Griffin for
assault and battery.
In an interview with a MORNING NEWS
reporter Mr.. Alexander said that Griffin
had struck him a. a time when he had not
the least idea that he meditated any harm
TO him. Griffin claimed bit which
Alexander had, and when the latter turned
TO the workmen and proved that the con-
trary was true, and Griffin still insisting
that It was not AleXander's, he himself
broke the bit with a hammer, and then
Griffin struck him down. At last accounts
the assailant had not been taken into
custody. 1t was stated that he had applied
70 the company for wages due him which
were refused

THE LEAGUE RACE.

Rain Prevents Yesterdays Game at
Augusta-Columbus Defeats Atlanta
and Climbs Up Peg Nearer Savan-
nah-The Standing of the Clubs at
the End of the Third Week.
The third weeks games in the Interstate
League have not changed the relative
standing of the clubs. Savannah still
leads, having won eight games and lost but
one. There was no game yesterday at
Augusta on account of rain. Columbus,
which is next to Savannah in the race, won
a game from Atlanta putting the Musco-

to overtake her.
Atlanta seems to be playing in poor luck
and is still at the bottom Of the list, having
won but two games since the season opened.
All the clubs have now met, and Savan-
nah is conceded to have the strongest team.
After to morrow's games all the clubs will
lay off a week, unless Savannah remains in
Augusta day to play off yesterdays post

to date is as follows:
