Decisions were handed down by
the supreme court of Georgia Satur-
day in about forty cases. 10 three
cases where the defendants had been
sentenced to death, the judgment OF
the lower court was allowed to stand.
The parties who are to hang are
Candus Gardner, for the killing Of
ISAIAH Winfield at Brunswick ; Ed
Banks, for the killing of Willie Bel
vim in Macon county, and Elijah
Chavos, for the killing of II. A. Gull
pepper, deputy sheriff, a. Waycross.
A peculiar incident in connection
with the last case was that another
man had been lynched for the same
crime by mistake before the defend
ant was arrested. In the case oil
Jackson, who had been sentenced to
hang for the murder of Bee Brown
in Wilcox county, a new trial was
granted.

This is how the Douglesyiile Star
talks: The more the farmers think
about the Peoples party the more
they will feel that it is utterly hope
less to accomplish any reliet through
it. Col. L. L. Polk cannot rally the
boys in North Carolina. He now
says, ''that perhaps, we will not put
out a state ticket, but will run Peo-
pies party only in national politics. y
Governor Tlman of South Carolina
one of the strongest Alliancemen in
the United States, says that the AL,
lance OF his state will have nothing
to do with the Peoples party, and
that he is Democrat and is can.
didates on the Democratic platform
for re- election. Almost daily reso.
lutions are passed all over Georgia
by the Alliancemen that they will
not support the Peoples party fol
anything. From present outlook il
seems that the Peoples party il
weakening every day. Democratic
organizations are being formed al
over the country, and when it gets
its work started right it will sweeE
everything before it. The truth is
our people are beginning to see thai
they cannot afford to divide. Let
all who read this in Douglass county
make this prediction "The PEG
pies party will not poll 10000 votes
in Georgia, and the Democrats will
poll 90,000.'

The Democratic creed says: "Let
the farmer buy in the best and
cheapest market; cut the tariff for
that purpose. Let the farmers sell
in the best and highest markets
revise the tariff with that end in
view. Reduce taxation to the actual
expenses of the government conom-
ically administered"

A negro living near Cherokee
almost gave the coroner a job on
Thursday last. He had been told
that kerosene oil was good for dan
druff, so he saturated his head with
it, and while drying near the fire
the oil attracted the flames. and soon
his wool was ablaze. He was left
as bald as baby, and his head
severely burned.

LAWSON ON THE THIRD PARTY.


In a letter to the Madisonian,
Judge Lawson, Alliance Congress
man from the Eighth district, give:
in straightforward, courageous
way, his reasons for deploring the
tendency among the farmers Of
Georgia to cut loose from the Demo
cratic party and link their destiny
with the new political movement
organized as the Peoples Party.
Congressman Lawson says:
"While / do not question the sim
cerity of our friends Of the third
party, / cannot avoid the conviction
that they may postpone for years
the relief which they seek by Grip
ping the only party through which
that relief can come. They inveigh
against the Democratic party, but
let me ask, what harm has that party
ever done them? Every intelligent
person will admit that the Republi-
Can party has done them much harm
and has attempted still greater harm.
Every candid man will admit also
that the Democratic party has done
him no harm, but on the contrary
has done much good in repairing the
evils OF reconstruction, in assuring
the dominance of the Anglo>Ssxon
race, in reducing the expense o.
government, in subordinating mill.
tary to civil law, in reducing taxa.
ton by their persistent opposition
to its increase, in restoring every.
where an orderly and tranquil civil
administration, and in preventing
the incalculable dangers of two at
tempted force bills. These achieve
ments ought to commend the Dem
ocratic party the earnest support of
every Southern man. But it has
attempted many more great things
and only failed in accomplishing
them for want of power. No we'll
informed and candid man will deny
that the Democratic party has al
ways adhered to just principles and
an honest and equitable administra-
ton of the government. It cannot
rescue people from the evils which
they bring upon themselves; not
even the third party can do that.
But it has dealt with all, so far as it
had the power, upon the principle
of even>handed Justice"
These are the sentiments of a man
loyal to Georgia, true to the best in
terests of her people, and devoted to
the old party that has served her SO
we'll in the past, and which promises
her SO much for the future.
{. No fairminded man can read this
conservative yet courageous presen-
tation of the dangers to be encoun-
tered by forming new political al
liances at this juncture, without be-
ing convinced that there is nothing
but folly in the move and disaster in
its prosecution.
The trouble with this large dis
contented element is, that they are
following blindly the lead of intern
perate agitators who, as a rule, pre-.
fer personal promotion rather than
their peoples welfare.
The farmers Of Georgia should
awaken to this understanding of the
condition before it is too late. They
should throw all heresies to the
wind and cling to the Democratic
party as their only refuge.-Atlanta
Herald.

Electricity has been put to rather
novel and cruel use on the Gutten-
burg race track, New Jersey. After
race there the other day jockey,
whose actions had excited suspicion,
was examined. Around his waist
was found an ingenious rubber band
foot or more deep, provided with
pockets. In these pockets regular
battery was secreted. Running
down along the boys right leg from
this battery were two wires. They
passed under his riding boot, and,
coming up again, were wrapped
about a spur, which was made Of
specially prepared metal. By driv-
ing his right spur into the side oil
the horse he was riding the electri-
cal circuit was completed, and liter
ally "electrifed'' the poor beast into
extraordinary bursts of speed. A
saddle cloth Of rubber kept the fiery
current from reaching the horse un-
til the spur was applied. The ex-
posture of this piece of cruelty, to-
gether with the previously exposed
lawless practices in vogue at this
particular track, would seem to be
enough to warrant the authorities In
closing the place.

Washington Evening olar, ~otp.I
few senators are wandering around the
northern end of the Capitol this afternoon
and all of them are talking politics TO a
greater or lesser extent. Hero and there
Is rendered an opinion to the effect that
HARRISON and Blaine Will succeed IN
killing each other before the con-
vention. in which event the most
likely man is Senator Allison. The
nomination would be very popular with
large proportion of the senators. and when
il is remembered that Boies has carried
Iowa for the Democracy twice IN success
sion there ls nothing unreasonable IN the
theory which makes Senator Ailison
candidate with reasonable chances OF sue
cess. Those who advocate Allison thlnk
Secretary Tracy would be q good man to
mt ON the other end of the ticket. ms,
thew claim, would make Iowa ana New
York certainly Republican.
The injection Of Allison INTO the STU
alton has not, however. materially dinnih-
isbed the demand which seems to exist for
Blame and Rusk. A few of those who have
been ouite LOYAL to the Secretary or Agri-
culture are Just now inclined to question
the adyisability of his nomination Tor
