The sentence Of IL. NJ. Cochran, in the

was ridiculous. Thirty days in Jail and
fine of $500! If there is one crime more
than another that deserves the severest
punishment it is this. Better to have let
the man gone free and said he was not
guilty than to put such travesty on
justice. If he is not guilty, set him free !;
but il he is-ard jury OF his peers has
so found him-give him punishment
equal to the crime, if such a thing be
possible. For the same crime an I'M

The County Printing.

The new board of county commits
sioners have at last dished out a little
of the public pap SO long begged for,
sought, schemed, cried, lied and almost
died for by the Tribune of this city, by
awarding that paper the county print
ing at the rates it has been let for the
last four years. Commissioner Mont
gomery moved that it be let to the
Register; Commissioner Bruce amended
the motion that it be let to the Tribune;
Commissioner Moses seconded Mr..
Bruce's motion and the two carried 1t,
against most vigorous, forcible and
just protest of Mr.. Montgomery.
A number of years ago the republic
cans established the precedent of the
old, or retiring board letting the print
ing Cor the ensuing year. This was
done at the time to circumvent the OPP
position, and the rule has been followed
ever since, up to this time. Now.
the rule would not work that way
so supreme court decision was hunted
up that worked on the old board Messrs
Strothman, Bruce and Moses, and tn
left the printing question to be settled
by the incoming, or republican board.
The Register is ''in the SOUP" Its
editor is hoodood. Col. Borders had
shown himself an able newspaper man,
had given his readers a neat, newsy
paper, and has a circulation in the
county second only to that of the DEM
OCRT. He last week enlarged his paper
and made special effort to show his
commissioners what kind Of an "offic-
ial" paper he could furnish them. Yet
his efforts were all for naught. The
only republican paper of any standing
or influence in the county barring the
Hoisington Dispatch) was thrown aside
and the honors and small emoluments
were given to the Tribune, a paper
that we have positive knowledge is not
read by forty subscribers outside of
Great Bend and vicinity.
For seventeen long years the Tribune
hasskicked andIcaterwauled, has clawed
and scratched aud scraped at the door
of the county treasury in an effort to
get public pap. It has got it.
In the meantime the most of the
people Of the county will read the offic-
ial county news in the columns of the
DEMOCRAT, furnished them in a spirit
Of enterprise and business without pub
lie pap or patronage.

The Georgia Cracker.

Ham, the inimitable campaigner
who captured the state with his humor
in the recent canvass, has dropped
politics, which were simply a dead
weight on his humor, and now faces
the public as a Georgia Cracker, droll,
shrewd, irresistible, inlmitable. This
character is entirely in keeping with
the genius of his humor, and his port
rayal is calculated to delight the people
of Atlanta.
There is no more picturesque figure
than the typical Georgia cracker, and
Ham, consciously or unconsciOusly, is
the type itself. Our writer's of fiction
have halted somewhat in their efforts
to picture forth the Georgia cracker.
They have treated him cavalierly.
They regard him as clown, an ignor-
anus and a tackey, and they give to
his life sordid touch that it has never
known. It is left to Ham to give the
fictitionists their cue. Tangle and
twist wide and accurate knowledge of
humrn nature with a humor as broad
and as deep as that of Sheakspear, and
you have the Georgia cracker-the man
who is responsible for much that is
highest and nOblest in the Anglo
Saxon life in the South.
Ham has illustrated his lectude with
a number of new and characteristic
stories, and those who hear him will
get great deal more than their moneys
worth, for they will find themselves in
the present of more unauthorized
human nature than has ever before
been exposed to their view in on sit
ting. And it will be handled in a
mastery way-with the art that nature
itself is responsible fOr.-Joel Chandler

John G. Frank is our present Fire
Marshal. The duties of this officer
are to prevent interference from per-

FIRE, and such aid is often very
essential and much appreciated by all.
But when there are a sufficient mum.

hove for years trained in the work OF

it is The best TO let such men do the
work in band. They work in system
and knowledge of the opportunities

city pays them reasonably for suct
work; so that no matter how willing

the company may be to assist i'll any
manner possible, il is best for eff
