is well known that the campaign in
this state began as a one-sided affair,
the so-called reform faction of the dem
ocratic party having it all their own
way, neither republicans nor conserva-
tive democrats nominating any candi-
dates. The result was that four promi-
nent reformers presented themselves
for governor. These were John Gary
Evans, well known as a bitter partisan
and Tillman's tool in the legislature;
". II. Ellerbe, the present comptrol-
Ter general, a young farmer and out
and out reformer, but not SO bitter as
Evans; Sampson Pope, an original re-
former, but an anti-dispensary man,

SUIT AGAINST THE STATE.

From Florida of General Interest.

One of the Cases Before .iIt Supreme Court
From Florida of General Interest.
W~AsHISGTON, November 6.-Among
the cases before the supreme court
which have been advanced on the
docket for argument on account of its
public character, is that of F. R. Os-
borne VS.. the state of Florida. It ap-
pears that Florida has a law requiring
all express companies doing business in
towns Of more than Is. 600 inhabitants
IN that state, to pay an annual tax OF
500. Osborne, as the agent at Jack
sonville of the Southern Express com
pany, refused to pay this AK. He Was
arrested and required to give bond for
his appearance before a state criminal
court, which he refused to do, where
upon he was arrested and imprisoned.
He then made application to the circuit
court for release upon a writ of habeas
corpus, but the writ was denied and
the arrest and detention adjudged to
be legal. The state supreme court
affirmed this decision. Osborne now
appeals to the supreme court of the
United States upon the ground that the
law undSr which the arrest was made
is unconstitutional and void because it
is an effort to regulate commerce
among the several states. The decision
when rendered is expected to deal with
this question in a general way, and
will be of more than local Importance.

MOBILE, Ala. November 6.-Hon. E.
L. Russell, general solicitor Of the Mo-
bile and Ohio railroad, has issued a
long address to the voters of this state
in which he urges democratic unity in
the coming election. He traces the
cause of the panic last year and the
ensuing hard times, charging it all to
the republicans, and makes answers TO
the the campaign arguments of ex-
Speaker Reed and Governor Mckinley,
and points out what he considers dan
gerous theories of the populists.

POPuLlsTs' HOPES IN GEORGIA.
Chances Of Success in the Fourth, Ninth
and Tenth Districts.

MACON, Ga, November 6:-The politi-
cal situation in Georgia on the V Of
the election, is not so simple as it has
been in past years. The populists have
undoubtedly developed strength in sew
eral districts. 1t is probable that the
democrats, as usual, will elect a full
delegation to the lower house of con
gress. 1t is many years since a repub-
Iican has secured a seat in that body
from Georgia, but this result is not alb
solutely certain. In the districts
named. the populists have a chance Of
success, especially in the fourth, ninth
and tenth.

The Nominations Recalled.

Evans was chosen at the reform pri-
mary. Then many of the conservatives
revolted and in the hope of being aided
by the disappointed reformers called a
convention to nominate an indepen-
dent ticket, but cooler heads succeeded
in defeating the purpose of the owen
ton and no ticket was nominated.
Meantime Sampson Pope, one of the
reform candidates had refused to run
in the reform primary and when the
general democratic primary was held
also withheld his name SO hat Evans
had no opposition at the so-called dem
ocratic primary. Pope then came out
as an independent candidate to try his
success at the general election.
Pope came out as opponent of the
constitutional convention also, and this
gave him a new boon to his canvass
and his candidacy became a matter of
some Importance. He will be support
ed by many reformers, conservatives
and republicans, but it is not generally
believed that he can be elected as he
has no organized party at his back.

is connected with the staff of this paper and is
sent to you to obtain, If possible, an interview
with the prisoner Jean Laport, now under SEN

advanced If this man can be induced to talk,
and, If possible, furnish ON Information con-
corning his confederates in q vast scheme to
