NOT A PROFITABLE PARTNER.

with Smart Negro.


with Smart Negro.
Recorder Wilson will have an odd case
to pass upon this morning. 1t is nj
often that the police court has to settle
partnership difficulties, but it has one
on hand now.
Some months ago Samuel Jackson, a
Philadelphia, struck up an acquaintance
employed in grocery store in the City
of Brotherly Love.
Jackson was in i'll health and wanted to
come south He had few hundred dol
lars and Billingslea suggested that they
come to Savannah and go into business.
Billingslea is a smart negro, and the
idea struck Jackson that they could get
along all right together They came here
in July and opened grocery at Jeffer-
son and Charlton streets, under the firm
name Of Jackson & Co., at least that was
the sign they hung out. Jackson put up
the money and secured a license in his
own name.
The business prospered for awhile
and then began to show signs of falling
off Finally Jackson concluded he would
turn the store over to his creditors, but
Billngslea objected. He said he was a
partner in the business, and dldn
propose to turn his interest over TO
anybody He pointed to the sign,
jackson & Co. as an evidence of his
partnership and insisted that he had as
much right as Jackson to manage affairs.
As a further evidence ne produced the
city license. which also read Jackson &
Co That was a little too much for
Jackson. who had taken out the license
himself, and in his own name as the
city treasurer's books showed, and he
had Billngslea arrested.
jackson has come to the conclusion
that he has been taken in and wants TO
get out as near even as he can.

RAIL AND CROssTIE.

A big feht is in prospect for the fast
mai contract between New York and
New Orleans. The present fast mail
route is via the Southern railway. The
new competitor in the field is the At
lantic Coast Line, which thinks that it
can do better than the Southern by d
few hours, and is going to endeavor to
demonstrate the fact to the government
officials The Georgia railroad from Au-
gusta to Atlanta and from Augusta to
Macon will play large part IN the new
combine. From New York to Macon VIA
the Atlantic Coast Line it IS uOw twenty
seven hours and only trifie longer by
the Southern. This schedule will be re-
dUced by about three hours. so railroad
men think, and the road that clips the
longest slice off the time will De the win
ner in the contest. In preparation of the
coming war of speed the Georgia road
has placed orders for some of the latest

PARTY LOYALTY should rise far
above the petty animosities and other
endeavors of discomfort to disrupt the
regular organization. No true Demo-
crat will for an instant waver in his
regard for the principles of his political
faith, which are at the present time
the elements on which the action of
the party rests, on account Of the I'M
desirable tactics of one or more men,
bers of that party. Every Democrat
who considers carefully the issues
Of the day will concede the fact that
the party of the people is the Demo-
cratic party, and that all others are
either impositions or faint efforts to de-
prive the people of their rights and to
cast the balance of power into the
hands of capitalists and combinations.
We see this state of things staring us
in the face every day. Yet, knowing
this, voters willfully forsake their
birthright, mutilate the memory of
honored ancestors and and put to the
very verge of destruction the hope and
good will of the greater portion of
the American people. Elections all
over the country are showing the ten
dency of the people towards Demo-
cratic power, and this fall should be
another example of effective organiza-
ton against the common enemy.

STATES Attorney Eichelberger and
Hon. Milton G. Urner, the most prom
inent Republican members of the Fred
erlck bar, were thoroughly impressed
with the fact that they had no case
whatever against the three County
Commissioners accused of having ac-
copied broe from Tobias Main. Mr..
Main was not tried for perjury, because
the testimony of the Commissioners
themselves would have prevented the
case being sustained. A great MANY
witnesses as to the character and stand
ing of Mr.. Main were not even called,
as it was not considered necessary
Important testimony by DIR. Lee, of
Baltimore, was not called for on the
same ground. Hereafter, we trust new
er to hear of such accusations in this
county.

lT is with some regret, even though
the change was demanded in the inter
est of internal improvement, and to
come within the provisions of the city
ordinances, that we notice the displace-
ment of the old, familiar iron railing
around the Frederick County National
Bank, at the corner of Patrick and
Market streets. They will be deeply,
yea, sadly missed by those who love to
cherish the moss-backed vistages of
ancient times, and also more than the
above, by the idle, dissolute and loud
mouthed loungers, who rested their
weary bones against these ratings,
and needed not the passing hours save
for the purpose of eating and drinking.
The regret we have is only for their
sakes, and we hope that in some other
section of the city, where their I'M
varied presence will be more anxious
courted, that they may find another
such spot, where equally as happy mo-
ments may be as luxiourously spent.
The improvement is wonderful and
changes the appearance of the entire
neighborhood.
