POLITICS IN EFFINGHAM.
County Convention at Springfield and
Municipal Election in Guyton Tues

| County Convention at Springfield and
Municipal Election in Guyton Tues
day.
The political pot is boiling pretty lively
in Effingham county, and the candidates
are mastering their forces for the nominal
ing convention which will be held at
Springfield Tuesday to name candidate
for the lower house of the legislature. No
| particular issue is involved in the contest.
Several very worthy gentlemen are anxious,
however, to serve the dear people. Col.
| Morgan Rawls, the present incumbent, is
| seeking denomination. He is opposed by
| Hon. George Fl. Morgan, a former repre-
sentative, and Andrew j. Simmons, chair
man of the board of county commissioners.
! All are worthy and popular gentlemen,
and II either is selected, he Will represent
| the county we'll
An effort has been made, it is said, to
| bring the prohibition issue in this contest,
| but the more conservative voters are slow
| to encourage it, since Efiingham is dry
| county and her people are said to favor, in
| the main, letting each county settle that
| question for itself. A gentleman from Eff
| hngham yesterday says that from the pres
emit indications Col. Rawls has tue il side
track, and will be the next representative
Much interest is manifested among the
| friends of the various candidates, and a
| lively time is looked for at the convention.
The tax digest for 1888 shows very graf
flying increase in the taxable property of
the county, 1T being something over $50, 900
This increase over the digest OF 1887, which
was then about $5O, 900 over 1886, coupled
with the fact that the county is now out of
debt and the rate of taxation is very low, is
causing some clamor among the people for
more aud better roads and bridges The
small amount of money spent by the county
commits Iouers for internal improvements is
causing some discussion, and efforts will be
made to have more work done and more
streams bridged. 1t 10 said that Judge
Adams will be asked to look into
the condition of the roads at
the next term of the court
The election for a mayor and board of
aldermen for the town of Guyton will take
place on Tuesday The present mayor, C.
A. j. Sweat, Esq, will have no opposition,
but double set of aldermen will doubtless
be brought out. The ordinance adopted by
the present board excluding hogs from the
town limits and allowing cattle to roam the
town, has stirred up those who have hogs,
and who depend largely upon their stock
for their meat.

President Bradley to Run the Conn
 pany-Hotehktss Lived Loose Lifs
 of Late.
 A receiver of the G. M. Hotchkiss Com pany of West Haven, whose treasurer, Henry c. Hotchkiss, is in jail for forgery amount ing to nearly $20, ,000, has been appointed temporarily in the person of President F. s. Bradley of the Yale National bank. Hotch- kiss has not yet been able to secure bail of $S, ,000 in the four cases of forgery now pend- ing in the police court against him.
 President Bradley qualified on bond of $20, ,0e0, and Attorney Hamilton is on the bond as the security. The company will be run by Eugene H. White under the tempo rary receiver.
 It is thought among some of the directors that the former treasurer hadn't been con- late. He had been seen going into drinking places in the city at a time when prudent busiress man would be very likely to be at his manufactory and, furthermore, that he seemed to have been in the city longer and
 more frequently than was necessary for any business purpose. This and that were put to- gether with total that Hotchkiss had been neglecting his business.
 A few years ago Hotchkiss; father lost over $6, GOO in the failure of Judson Brothers, on whose paper he was.
 The Hotchkiss Company previous to the appointment of a receiver was attached for $1 1000 by Deputy Sheriff Speigel at the in- stance of James Reynolde to recover for stock furnished for manufacturing purposes. Stock and real estate was attached at first but the claim on real estate alone was continued.

One of the reasons why Monson & Carpen- ter's store is so very popular with the ladies is the fact that they always offer styles that are original, both in design and in coloring and it is great boon to lady to know that when she buys dress or an outside garment of this firm she Is assured the dress or cloak will not be duplicated. This fact is nowhere appreciated more than in their cloak room, where may be found the latest Paris styles and styles not to be found elsewhere. They are showing great variety of styles in fancy newmarkets, raglans, ulsters, peasant gar ments, etc., and no trouble in getting gar- ment to it perfectly, as all figures have been provided for, both large and small. In wraps they have handsome atyles in silk, cloth and seal plush, beautifully braided or very neatly trimmed with real seal. A great variety of single sample jackets of superior finish. no two alike, are shown. The styles in Misses and children's garments are exciting great admiration. This firm has always lead in really perfect seal plush sacques. They are made exclusively for their trade and are of best furrier finish, are handsomer and abso- lutely reliable as to wearing qualities, mar vels of construction certainly. Buyers will not do themselves justice if they fail to visit their cloak room.
 It is a we'll known fact that this concern excels in display of dress goods. Beautiful combinations are shown in the new and soft colorings. In silk goods also the assortment is most bewildering, and in mourning dress goods a specially is made. All other depart ments are quite Rs complete and 1t is pleas ure to see the success of this enterprising firm, as is evident by the crowds in the stores every day. We cannot do better than to urge a call upon Monson & Carpenter every time you are out shopping. You may be sure of courteous treatment from their efficient and well known salespeople.
