been signed in the State praying the
Legislature to pass a prohibition bill.
Petitions will be circulated in the city

being circulated in the State, notably in
Charleston. There IS promise OF a lively
fight when the measure is brought be-
fore the Legislature. The fight preci-
pitated by the prOhibitionists will be
hotly contested by the ants. Not only
is Charleston up in arms against The
proposed law but the anti-prohibition-

against the proposed law has been re-
celved in the city and it will be circu-
lated here. a petition Of Charleston
parties has also been received praying
the Legislature not to increase the
license. These petitions will be circu-
lated in the city. The prohibition.

Brutal Attack on Sam SmalIs.

ATLANTA Nov. 12.-There was a
short but lively fight in Nashs barber
shop on Peachtree street shortly after
noon. The participants were Rev. Sam
Small, the we'll known evangelist and
one Of the leaders Of the anti-barrom
movement. and Thomas A. Minor, a
saloon keeper at 1876 Decatur street.
Certain illusions which Mr.. Small
had made in his public speeches at Pro
hibition hall about MIR. Minor and his
saloon are what brought about the at
tack. 1t lasted only about half a min
ute, and was over before anyone out
side of the barbershop could have their
attention attracted.
Mr.. Small was seen and asked about
the difficulty, and said:
"lIe didn't hurt me much, for ! held
up my arm this way and warded off
the blows. Pretty soon we clutch ed
and fell to the floor. | Was under the

and as he went out of the door he said:

that policemen were stationed in front
Of Minors saloon on Decatur street to

"Did you knew Minor?"
No; never saw him before"
Was nothing else said?"
No, that's all"
Mr.. Smalls stood up to have the dust
brushed off his clothes and then walked
out Of the barbershop with his gold
spectacles in his hand.

BAD for tho G. O. l.. Bosses.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16---The Supreme
Court Of lle District Of Columbia to
day overruled the demurrer of Charles
~. Newton, President OF the Old Domin-
ion Republican League, charged with
violation OF the Civil Service Act for.
bidding the solicitation or receiving DO
litical contributions in government
buildings. Newton sent Il circular ash
ing persons to become members Of the
league, paying 81 initiation fee aud %
cents month and further contribu
tlonS il they could afford to aid in the
campaign. The demurrer contended
that the law had not been violated and
If so was unconstitutional. The court
said that Congress in the reasonable ex-
ercisc Of its powers prohibited political
solicitations or contributions in public
buildings and this was not an infring-
ment OF constitutional rights.
Civil Service Commissioner Thomp-
son said he thought the effect of the de-
cision will be to practically stop polit-
lcal assessments and to leave al COVE RI
ment employees free to contribute or
not us they see tit.
