WILL BE HAGooD.
A Rumor That He Is to Be Nominated
Against Tillman.

WASHINGTON, Feb. ga man, who
registers himself as Col. John l.. Black,
from South Carolina, and who seems to be
proud Of the title Of colonel, and who also
seems TO be in full possession Of all the
movements and details Of the Haskellites
aud -Tillmanites. made public to-day
the fact that ex-Gov johnson Hagood
would be nominated at the coming conven-
ton in March.
He claims that. he has information
through the leaders of the opposition thai
ex-Gov. Hagood will sweep the state in tbs
primaries.
From the manner in which this was told
there can be but little doubt that be is tell
ing the truth.
He told it under the impression that he
was talking to persons unfriendly to Till
man and his administration, but the ubiqui-
tous newspaper man happened to be around
with his phonograph and caught every
sound.
His bitterness against Tillman, Irby and
Shell was disgustingly prominent and pro-
fame.
that the Haskellites and anti-Tillmanites
were synonymous as far as this campaign
was concerned.
He also told that at the recent meeting In
Columbia Gonzales and Williams had some
pretty hot words, and that the nomination
of Gov. Hagood was agreed upon at this
meeting.
Your correspondent has talked TO several
South Carollnians and they laugh at the
idea of Gov. Hagood defeating Tillman.

POLITICS IN GEORGIA.

Councilman Car. Princle called the ex-
ecutive committee Of the Georgia Prohibit
ton Association together at Atlanta
Wednesday. The following resolutions
were adopted: Whereas, It is the opin-
ion of this committee that as much good has
been done in our state under the local OPP
ton law in closing the barrooms as we could
reasonably expect; and Whereas, 1t is
manifestly the policy of the state to rid it
self Of the liquor curse; therefore, Re-
solved, That the executive committee ur-
gently requests all the temperance voters
of the state to see to it that such mon are
voted for in the primaries who will prop
erly represent in the next legislature not
only the wishes of their constituents, but
the great need of the state, by amending the
local option law, or by passing general
law making provision for sufficlency of
alcoholic liquors for medicinal, sacramento,
manufacturing and mechanical purposes,
and prohibiting its sale for any other pur-
poses. Resolved, That we extend hearty
greetings to all temperance and prohibition
organizations"

Gresham to Take the Stump.

ST. LOUIS, No., August 13.-Judge Ores
ham has concluded to take the stump in the
interest of the third party, and will make
his opening speech at indianapolis the latter
part of this month. Chairman Taubeneck
received this intelligence from the chairman
of the state central committee of Indiana to
whom Judge Gresham had written declaring
his intention and setting forth his reasons
for making a campaign in The interest of
General Weaver.
In his report to the national head quar-
tiers the chairman of the state central COM
mittee of Indiana, states that Judge Ores
ham, in apprising him of his intentions in
formed him by letter that he did not refuse
the presidential nomination because he was
not IN sympathy with the party. but for q
reason that was entirely personal and not
political.
'How do you like that for a piece of
news" said Mr.. Taubeneck. 1T means that
one speech from Gresham, no matter wheth-
er he makes more than one, in favor of the
object of our intentions and inoorsing our
platform means over $4,000 votes for the
peoples party that we would not have been
able to control otherwise. With a catering
prospect now of carrying Indiana; with the
encouraging report received from the south,
and with the silver states behind US, we have
good cause to feel hopeful"
Chairman Taubeneck was asked to give
out the letter, but refused to do 50.

Excitement in Tennessee.


NASHVILLE, TENN, August 13.-Excitement
continues in all cities in Tennessee. and
Memphis is rabid in its denunclation of Gov
ernor Buchanan for committing the sentence
of Il. C. King, who killed his man in cold
blood.
Governor Buchanan was asked to give the
Associated Press his reason for the act.
with pleasure" said the governor, 'and
I will do it briefly. First, Thought that King
should have had a change of venue. Aftida-
Wits to the effect tina. Juror Smith had com
municated with outside parties and expressed
an opinion about the case were filed with
me. These affidavits could not be intro
duced in the court of record because it was
too late. The action of Juror Muslin and Ct
the jury going to Arkansas to deliberate upon
the case had their weight. The dissension of
one of the supreme judges in the defense of
partial insanity, the pleadlngs of his wife and
children and the most prominent men of the
country, besides the hundreds of letters and
petitions: those were my reasons for COM
mutlng the sentence"
81 am responsible for my action" said the
governor. II thought was doing right, and
I acted accordingly to my belief"
He then handed the reporter a petition
signed by twen.y-sIx United States senator's
and congressman.
