Harvey Wakeley, on trial at Nashville,
Tenn, for murder, was asked if he had killed
the victim. He replied. II hope God
will strike me dead, now, If did" The words
were scarcely out OF his mouth when he
rose from his chair, clinched his hand as if
in great agony and fell motionless, The jury
jumped to their feet and rushed TO him but
when then picked him up life was extinct.
The Judge at once dismissed the case, say

THE SENATE AND SILVER.

The Columbus Herald, like THE NEWS,
has always been strongly in fa"or OF the
repeal of the Sherman silver law, not be-
cause it favors single gold standard, but
an account of the belief that the repeal
of this law would open up the way for
legislation that would give silver It's
proper place in our currency.
The faith within us leads US to believe
that the democratic party is not an
enemy to silver and that after the repeal
OF the Sherman law proper legislation
would be had concerning silver.
In commenting upon the two factions
in the senate, the Herald says
Those senators who are holding out
against the minority for uncondi tional
repeal, in our opinion, are doing the
proper thing.
There are two kinds of silver men in
the senate minority. One, the despera-
does and mine owners, Is led by the
ruffianly Senator Stewart, who has shown
himself to be a most uncompromising
donkey as we'll as paid hireling of the sill
yer owners, who is standing up lighting
in his own individual interest and against
the interests of the people at large.
This wing of the minority deserves
neither consideration nor respect. The
other wing as represented oy
Senators Colquitt, Daniel, Butler
and others simply wishes to be
assured that silver will be dealt
with properly and given its riGhttul place
in our currency. With this wing, the
majority could easily treat and speedily
arrive at a conclusion satisfactory to the
people. When the Stewart crowd is SEN
to the rear in this fight some proper leg
islation may be expected.

HELP, on THEY STARvE.

The people of Brunswick are in worse
need than at any time yet, and the last
reports from the stricken city were that
the people there were in danger of star
vation if generous help was not given.
Yellow Jack has buried his venomous
fangs deeper into the throat of the fair
city, and each day sees dozens of new
victims in his unrelenting grasp. Eve"y
means of lucrative employment is gone
and women and children walk the streets
like gaunt spectres crying for bread. All
of the larger cities, and most of the
smaller ones, of Georgia are responding
nobly for the call for help.
Cities in the north are also sending
money and provisions, but Chey are yet
in need.
The large sum of 100000 is needed to
carry them over until frost and only about
$4,000 has been raised, and the most of
that has gone to supply the bare necessi-
ties of the sick patients.
Dawson, having been undisturbed
either by the plague or money panic,
should respond as her financial condition
iustifies. THE News will gladly aid in
any work for the benefit of the sufferers,
and ali subscriptions, either money or
provisions, will be received and forward
ed to the relief committee.
Let it not be said that in the hour OF
need Dawson was the last to respond.

4 USEFUL LIFE NEARING TIE END.

Hon. Joseph E. Brown is nearing the
end of long life and is now barely able TO
lift his hands, and indeed too weak to lift
his beau. A pathetic word picture is
given in the Atlanta Journal Of the SEN
ator's last ride but one to the magnificent
new Second Baptist church in Atlanta.
The old m an has been member of the
church for something like forty years
and contributed handsomely to the erec-
ton of the new neutrality-suspicious. the
most magnificent place of worship I'D
Georgia. He was lifted from his rumb-
ling old carriage by two servants and,
accompanied by his wife and Or. Nc
Donald, the pastor, was permitted to
gaze out of his almost sightless eyes at
the interior of the great structure. The
silence was broken by the senator: II
am Glad that / was enabled to do some
thing towards the building of this new
church, and thank God that have
lived to see 1t completed"
He can only live few days more, and
on his next visit to the church of his love
he will be born by kind friends on his
way to the city of the silent dead.
He is a great man, and giant is fallen
when he is gone.

PLAINLY STATED.

The negro convention which has been
called by Bishop Turner to meet soon in
Cincinnati. to consider the question of
lvnching and to take steps, if possible,
to reduce the frequency of this unlawful
practice, is not likely to result in any
good, says the Tocoa News.
They will doubtless take prejudiced
view of the question and decide th..t
their race has been prosecuted simply on
account of their color
1t is perhaps true that, in some instan-
ces, where black men have been strung
up by mobs, race prejudice may have
had some influence; but in the majority
of cases lynching has resulted from the
commission of a heinous offense, and the
same men who assisted the black wretch
to shuttle off this mortal coil would have
performed the same service for white
man guilty of the same deed. It's the
diabolical deed of the negro, generally
and not his odor and complexion, that
has caused him to become intimately
associated with a rope tied to limb of
a tree.
That such wretches deserve to die, The
News fully believes; but we think it
would be better plan to let them be
punished legally.

THE Columbus Enquirer-Sun says it is
political rumor that J. w. Robertson, of
Habersham, was for some time considered
in plan of campaign to oppose General
Evans for governor, but Hon. R. q.
Mitchell has been selected on account of
his geographical position. 1t would be
interesting to know just whose plan of
campaign this is, why Colonel Robertson
should be considered in any plan OF
campaign for governor OF Georgia, and
why the same clique which considered
Robertson should finally settle on Col
onel Mitchell.

w. D. EVANS, president of the Farm
ers' Alliance of South Carolina. is out in
a proclamation calling upon the farmers
to hold their cotton and force a rise in
the price. 1t will be remembered that
in Georgia three years ago the same sort
of schemt was advised by Governor Nor
then and Colonel Peek, who promised
that the price would go to y cents. But
the farmers were forced to sell at little
more than hale that price, and many of
themlost money by trying to take the
advice.

IF there are any goldbug people in

our observation. A few politicians and
papers have joined in silly cry that

in the language of the democratic plat
form-are not therefore any more gold
bug than the convention that adopted the
platform, or the platform itself.
