From the Brunswick (Ga) Call Dem

Since the convention of the anti-bar-
room people in this city much interest
has been manifested in the matter. To
question a Call reporter interviewed a
large number of the leading business men
yesterday, and with the exception of
of the dispensary bill. Good reasons were
given for their opposition to the move
mont, many saying that they would re-
move to another state within one month
after the passage of the BILL and a prom
inent land owner said his property would

From the Boston Herald Ond)

When anybody in ex-Gov. Campbelrs
audiences in Ohio asks him whether he is
for Brice for senator, he promptly re-
plies; I'm neither for him nor against
him. I'm running for governor. The leg
isleture will elect the senator" This
doesn't look as if there was any very
solid foundation for the charge that Camp
bell has been put forward to pull the
Brice chestnuts out of the fire.

THE ELLEN8BURG LYNCHING CASES
Trial Begun and DilatOry Tactics on the
part of the Defense.


Ellensburg, Sept. 1.-THE trial or
Mike Under, Frank Ueblelacher, VIII
liam Kennedy, Frank Fiegle and ROD
ert Linke, the men charged with muir
der in connection with the lynchlng
of the Wilson's on the 14th ult., began
this morning in the superior court
Judge Humes Of Seattle presiding
The state was represented by e. II.
Wager county attorney, assisted by
w. C. Graves. Fl. j. Snively, Edwin
Pruyn, J. B. Davidson, Mires & War
ner and w. j. Welsh appeared for the
defendants.
No demand was made for separate
trials, and all were arraigned together.
The jury box was at once filled from
the regular panel, % names being avail
able. Nine jurors had been passed for
cause when the panel was exhausted.
Judge Humes announced that he would
have the sheriff secure so names on an
open venire, but the defense objected
on the ground that such action was
contrary to the new law. The court
did not believe the legislature cOntem-
plated the locking and delaying of the
work of courts, and he was willing. il
wrong in the premises, to let the SUI
preme court correct him.
The defense then made the point that
as the sheriff was prosecuting witness
in the case, having sworn to the COM
plant, he is not qualified to select
jury.
The court accepted that view, but
promptly instructed the clerk to mott
fy the coroner, who lives at Cle-Elum,
to make service at the earliest possible
moment and report to the court at
$50 Wednesday morning.
This action was taken because the
coroner assumes the duties of the sher-
if whenever the latter, through any
cause, becomes disqualified.
The incomplete jury was then ordered
to be kept together in custody of two
bailiffs till reconvening Of the court
Wednesday morning.

CHARGED WITH BEING A TRAITOR
Southern statesmen Become Excited III
Constitutional Convention.

Columbia, S. c., Sept. LITTLE pro
ceedings of the constitutional COnVen-
ton today were characterized by Il
most exciting tilt between Senator Till
man and his brother, George d. Till
man, on the question of naming 4 new
county.
George TilIman on Saturday had sue
ceeded in getting the county named
Butler. Senator Butler was absent at
the time and returning today, he NOV
ed to change the name to Saluda. In
a passionate speech he charged Sena-
tor Butler with being a traitor to the
party and said that to name a county
after him was an insult to the reform
erS of the state.
George d. Tillman, in reply, taun+ed
his brother with fighting man whom
he had defeated and dramatically st1ik-
ing his breast exclaimed: THANK God
there is no sentiment in my heart that
would make me StOOp so low"
The scene became extremely exciting
and the convention was in wild COnfuS-
ion, which continued until adjournment
was taken al Ais p. m.
Senator Tillman in his speech taunt-
ed Senator Irby with not replying to
his brother, c.. D. Tillman, on Satur-
day, and Irby in a short speech, de-
nOunced Tillman for stirring up strife
in the convention and said it came
with i'll grace from man to hound his
fallen foe and declared that Butler in
patriotism, honesty and courage was
the equal of Tillman or any other man
in the state. When a vote was finally
obtained Senator Tillman carried his
point and the new county was named
Saluda instead of Butler.
