Augusta, Ga, Aug. 6.-Richmond
county contributes a liberal share to the
deficit in the general tax returns for 1894
The repeal of the law providing assessors
for this county, followed by the hard
times, has brought the county digest
down to 500, 164, $50, a reduction of $780,
600 from last year.
The turf exchange pool rooms, at which
men add boys have been allowed for sew
eral months TO bet on the horse races at
the different tracks in the country, are a
thing Of the past in Augusta. The re-
corder to-day imposed fines against both
OF them in several cases, and they have
folded their tentsI and will not open
again.
There is likely to be a warm fight in the
city council over the liquor license ques-
ton. Under the present law, saloons do
ing an annual business of less than s. 800
pay 1925 license. and those doing more
pay $3.50. The result is that nearly all
pay the lower license, claiming their bust
ness is below the limit. To-day bill was
introduced in council fixing a uniform
license of $500, regardless of the amount
of business In the Augusta city council
the liquor men have always welded con-

new bill il is not likely TO pass

oHARLEsToN,s DEMOCRATS.
Cleveland Endorsed Despite Kick BY
the Tillmanite Element.

Charleston, S. c., Aug. 6.-The county
democratic convention which met here to-
day developed the fact that the breach in
the city democracy, which vas developed
in 1892 by the two wings of the party and
led to the election of Mayor Ficken, re-
former, has been pretty well healed.
The business of the convention was
merely perfunctory and was discharged
without much friction
There were about $50 delegates, with
the regulars very much N the majority.
j. Ancrum Slmons, regular, was unani-
mously elected president: j. M. 'Eason, re-
former, vice president, and William
Fitch, regular, Secretary.
Inc members of the executive commit
tee were elected by the ward clubs and
were confirmed by the convention. The
committee consists of twenty-four city
members, twelve regulars and twelve re-
formers, and four county members, most
OF whom vote with the regulars. In the
ranks OF the reform delegates were prob
ably dozen Tillmanites, and these
caused the sensation of the meeting. AT
yer the business was transacted the fol-
lowing resolutions were offered:
Resolved, That we denounce the uncalled
leVeled at Grover Cleveland, President; OF
the United STATES, by the men now in control
of the state democratic organization.
Resolved, That the democracy of Charles
ton pledge their undivided support to the
National Democratic Party and its matchless
leader, Grover Cleveland.
This produced kick from the handful
OF Illlmanites in the hall.
A. c. Kaufman, a reformer, but anti
Illlmanlte, offered the following substi-
tute;
Resolved, That the democracy of Charles
ton county. in convention assembled, do
hereby renew their allegiance to Grover
Cleveland, President of the United States
assuring him of their hearty support in all
those measures of reform which he has so
wisely Instituted and most consistently de-
tends.
The regulars would not have this, how
ever, and tabled it by an overwhelming
vote, and finally adopted the first resolu.
ton, emphasizing the hostility of the
county democracy to Gov. Tillman and
his methods.

Immigrants from the West.
Atlanta, Ca, Aug. Gov. Northen
has received an invitation to address a
meeting of farmers at Salem, Neb., on
Aug. IA and will probably accept it in the
interest Of immigration to Georgia. The
governor, whose plans are being perfected
to devote himself entirely to bringing
good settlers to Georgia after his term
of Office expires, believes that now is the
time to strike in the west. For that rea-
son he is especially DESTROYS of going
to Salem on the 18th. Hon G. Gunby
Jordan, the new railroad commissioner
has recently returned from an extensive
trip in that region, and adds in strong
terms his belief in the views held by the
governor, that with little effort a large
and desirable class of immigrants could
be attracted from the west to the south.
