GEORGIA WANTS A STATESMAA.

The canvass which General Evans has
been making in the interest of his candl-
dacy for the nomination for governor has
dem )nstrated what was already appa-
rent. that he Is a grand man, in every
way worthy to represent Georgia as her
chief executive.
The general is a statesman of the high
est order, anu not simply politician.
He is above reproach, both in respect to
his personal and private character, and
would scorn to stoop to the level of base
or dishonest act His intellect is COM
manding;and his bearing is that of an
affable, cultured and refined gentleman,
whose presence is inspiring and whose
disposition is admirable and loVab e.
No wonder that such man draws to him
the Affect rs and good wishes of the
people, whose discernment teaches them
tina. he is the embodiment of true man
hood, in whose intelligence, devotion
and integri Y they can safely cOntide.
But more than this, General Evans is a
progressive thinker, a ripe scholar, with
broad ana comprehensive views upon all
subjects, and the courage to declare and
stand by his convictions. Though he
bears upon his person the scars of battle
and is revered for his gallant conduct in
defense of home, he can well afford to
go before the people as he has dyne upon
his civic record alone, and ask them for
then unbiased suffrage upon his merits
as a patriot and statesman. His ster-
ling qualities commend him as the man
TO be made Georgia's next governor.
Georgia will have a statesman as her
chief executive, and not crossroads
politician.

BELLOWS FALLS.

The auditor of the Boston and Maine
railroad has finished his investigation
of the books Of Freight Clerk Ernest
Green of Bellows Falls, who committed
suicide at the Commercial housein that
place last week Wednesday. He finds
shortage in the cash of 1862. This
has been covered by duplicate receipts
and bills issued when bills were collect
ed by Green. who had charge Of the
cash in the Office, under Agent d. W..
Linton. There is much speculation as
to what Green did with the money, all
of which Linton AYERS must have been
taken within the past month, owing to
the strict system of checking up. Green
had been somewhat incorporate and
neglectful of his duty. This led to his
discharge. The auditor came We'd
nesday. Green was in his room at the
hotel when he was-told thatthe auditor
was waiting for him at the Office. A few
moments later he shot himself dying
about five minutes after. He was 33
years old and unmarried.

The Boston Daily Globe, in its is
sue of Saturday, Oct. ID, 1894, takes
step forward in the discussion of
the question of woman suffrage which
few leading newspapers have taken
as yet. Under the caption ''Facts
about Woman Suffrage" the Globe
says, editorially:
There is no mistake known among
men more common than that of talk
ing against facts.
The innocence of ignorance is sell
dom more conspicuous than when
some people blandly ask: edo you
think women will ever get the suf-
frage p
And yet every intelligent observer
of human affairs knows that the
women have the suffrage already in
countries representing $4,000, 900
square miles of territory, and pop
ulation of $50, 100000.
After enumerating some of the
mere til N twenty countries where
women exercise full or partial suffrage,
the Globe says, in conclusion:
And yet some people are ever ask
ing, s'Do you think women will ever
get the suffrage 2" The world keeps
moving while they neglect to infulm
themselves. They wonder if some
thing is coming which, to a large ex
tent, has already come.
