A LAME DEFENSE FACTS CONFRONT MIR.
ATKINSON.

Mr.. Speaker Atkinson, in defending
himself against the charges made by
General Evans that the former accepted
and st IL holds illegally fee OF one
thousand dollars in violation of our state
constitution, produces Mr.. John l. Hall
who gives it as his opinion that Mr.. AT
kinson had right to accept the employ
ment and the fee. Neither he nor MI
Atkinson will dare quote the constitu-
ton on that point And yet these gem
tlemen have the temeHty to publish their
opinions trusting that. the people Will
not be permitted to examine the consti-
tuition for themselves The proposition
is one of so plain construction in the
light of the constitution that even
slate politician need not err therein. II
is the best argument that we can pro
duco in reply to Mr.. Hall, and therefore
we take pleasure in reproducing it. 1t
is as follows:
''Nor shall any Senator or Representa-
tive, after his qualification as such, be
elected by the General Assembly or APP
pointed by the Governor, either with or
without the advice and consent of the
senate, to any office OF appointment hav-
ing any emolument annexed thereto
during the time for which he shall ave
been elected.
We call special attention to the use Of
the word appointment in addition to
the word "office,'' the former being un-
doubtedly used to govern a case which
the word "office" did not cover. Mr..
Atkinson could not have acted in the ca
pacity he did without being appointed,
and it is childish and quibbling to IN
sist upon The proposition in the face of
this section of the constitution which we
have just quoted.
We repeat that Mr. Atkinson violated
the constitution of this state; that he
took money from the treasury to which
he had no right and without the sem
bance of legality.
The trainers of the constitution meant
to provide against such occurrences as
the Atkinson case.
By tn S act he has disqualified himself
from becoming the chief executive of
this state.

CALL A HALT.

The following article is clipped from
the Ho sier Blade, reform paper
published cut in Indiana. Read it and
tell us, if you please, what it means:
''We expect to organize Socialistic
Colony; will probably locate in Georgia
or some other state. We want pledges
of money of live stock, of agricultural
implements, OF machinery, of building
materials, of any and all things that can
be used in starting town and feeding a
community. We want offers on land
If there are any who will donate land we
want to hear from them. We wan,
about / 900 acres. and il in the right To-
cation any portion of this amount do
mated will be great help towards start
ing this new move toward higher civil
cation. We want none of these things
at present; only the pledges, TO be filled
after locationis secured and made ready
for start"
Is it indeed true that in addition t.
our other domestic Affections of polit-
ic Il nature e are to have added to them
an organization of socialists? Have thu.
dissentions in politics that have so dis
turbed our people for these la ter years
given such encouragement to the lower
law-resisting element that Georgia is set
down as a favorable field in which So
cialists can flourish?
If such is the case it is time for Geor-
gia's good citizens to cab halt. We
are neither socialists nor anarchists, nor
arr we fit material out of which So
cialists and anarchists can bemade.
If the organization preferred to above
is seriously contemplated, we should
prove our loyal citizenship by giving the
foundlings of it warm reception.-Li-

DIAMOND SMUGGLING.
The Ease With Which Precious STONES oi
Large Yalue May Be Concealed.


Large Value May Be Concealed.
One of the simplest devices for SNUG
CLING diamonds is that Of the hollow
heeled shoe. It is asserted that boots
and shoes constructed so as to leave
small vacant space in the heels are easily
obtained in Europe, and they are espe-
cially manufactured for the purpose OF
supplying smugglers with q means Tor
escaping detection
The porous plaster has often served as
a means of secreting diamonds. When
| it is understood that $40, 600 worth OF
diamonds or more can easily be inclosed
| in a paper parcel about as wide as this
column, l . inches high and about a
quarter of an inch thick, it is easy to
comprehend that such package can be
kept securely in place by means OF an
innocent but highly serviceable porous
| plaster.
One Of the most ingenious methods
ever employed was the use of a cake OF
soap, wherein a number Of diamonds
had been imbedded. It is highly pro1a-
BILE that this plan would have proved
successful had it not been that the CHI
GERS of the government had received IN
formation that thesuspected person had
! diamonds with him and searched his ef-
fects so thoroughly that they examined
even the gem studded block Of soap
The wife Of this smuggler helped her
spouse, and her plan was not less ilgen-
! ious than that Of her husband. Her lat
was ornamented with punches of graz IS,
which under ordinary circumstances
would only have awakened the envy Of
other wearers of bonnets. Within the
grapes were diamonds and fancy stones
of great value.
Another sInuggler was especially TO
vided by Providence with a smuggI 6
device in the shape of a heavy covering
of thick, bushy hair, which he arranged
so that it stood up from his forehead
| like an impenetrable bush Within this
! mass Of heavy hair he deposited a good
ly stock of diamonds and succeeded for
a time in escaping the vigilance of the
! custom house officials.
AS these schemes have become known
to the custom house authorities the in
county Of sraugglers has been more Sc
verely taxed. A recent discovery dis
closed the following elaborate plan,
which succeeded q great many times Le-.
fore it was discovered:
Two smug8lers operated in partner
ship The> frs crossed the ocean and be-
fore leaving the wharf reserved a return
berth for certain date. The date and
the number of the berth were at once
cabled to his accomplice in America.
Having purchased his diamonds in due
time he returned to this country in ac-
i cordance with the instructions previous
" cabled No amount of examination
resulted in finding any diamonds upon
his person Meanwhile, however, his
partner had secured the same berth.
When the day for sailing came, part
ner No. 2, accompanied by his family,
entered the cabin and extracted from a
secure hiding place several parcels Of
diamonds left there by his accomplice.
These he handed to his fearful family,
who after bidding him goodby left the
steamer unsupported and brought the
diamonds into the market. 1t took long
time to discover this schome.-Jewel-

GEORGIA REPUBLICANS.

There are a few of the faithful left IN
the state, and they begin to stir furtlvely
in election years. Colonel. A. E. Buck,
who was lately reported to be very sick
man. has aroused himself from his bed
TO hold meeting of the central commit
tee. which was recently attended by the
familiar white and colored contin-
cents. There was a difference Of opinion,
in which tie color line seems to have
been drawn. as to whether it would be
good republican politics to put out a
state ticket this year. This was not
encouraged by Colonel Buck and his
able coadiutor, Colonel R. D. Locke, but
the Major Smith Easley colored wing
successfully carried resolution for a
state convention in August for the pur-
pose of nominating a STATE ticket. Not
withstanding this result of the meeting,
Col. Locke is not apprehensive that the
convention will name a state ticket.
Col. Locke also takes occasion to repu-
date with some indignation the charge
that the republican leaders in Georgia
are in the habit of handling some of the
national campaign fund. Re denies that
any of this money has come TO Georgia
in twenty years. 1t would be interesting
to compare Col. Locke's experience with
Col. Bucks on this subject.
Whatever the republicans do, they will
hardly be able to complicate the state
campaign in Georgia this year, even by
putting out full state ticket.

THE Augusta Chronicle says editorial
ly: "There is no use trying to settle up
with Mr.. Atkinson by paying him with

the opportunity to place the state under
renewed obligations. Unless Georgia
wants to gets hQpelessly and irretrieva-
bly, in Mr.. Atkinson's debt, she had bet
ter not honor him with any more Offices.
Neither honor nor fees can secure a re-

Wonder what the colonel. would think OF

Evans ought not to be governor because
