The senate committee appointed to
inyes, gate Governor Bradley and i'm.

impose both fine and imprisonment, re-
ported to the senate last evening. The
committee recommended that the SEN
ate Of Kentucky declare that said use
of m llitary power Of the commonwealth
by the governor was unnecessary TOR
the preservation Of the peace or for any
other lawful purposes; that said mill
tary force was not used by the gover
nor for the purpose Of preserving tho
peace. but was used for partisan polit-
ical purposes, that said action Of the
governor was wholly without warrant
Of law, and was and is now fragrant
subversion OF the civil authority by the

adopted. F
Refused to P.ss Revenue Bills.
When the senate convened in the
evening the Republicans made fight
to bring up the revenue bills for CON
slderation, but tho Democrats pre-
vented legislation by filibustering. An
effort was made TO unseat President
Worthington and place Senator Goebel
in the chair that he might prevent any
consideration Of the revenue bills, but
it was only prevented by the Repub-
licans agreeing to allow the senate to
receive the report of the special come
mittee. After the report Of the special
committee was heard the Republicans
again attempted to bring up the rev.
enue bills, but were prevented by the
Democratic majority and the senate

SECOND DISTRICT Committee
VIII Probably BE Called Together by
Chairman Hobbs at an Early Day.

VIII Probably BE Called Together by
Chairman Hobbs at an Early Day.
From the Albany Herald
Capt. Richard Hobbs, the chairman OF
the second congressional district Idemo-
cratic executive committee, is being
urged to call the com mittee together by
the friends of some of the candidates.
Some of the counties want to indorse
their favorite candidate, and thus settle
the counter claims of other candidates,
SO far as these counties are concerned, at
least, and they say they are ready to act
as sotn as the district committee calls
the convention and designates the time
ana the manner of selecting delegates.
Inc Terrell county democratic commit
lee mas orderedlalvote for congressman on
the 6th OF June, and it may be that
other counties will take similar action.
Anyhow, 1T is claimed, and precedent is
elted In support of the claim, that it is
ting fQf the district committee to meet
and let the county committees be advis-
ed as to what they will be expected to
DO to keep in line with the duly consti-
tuted executive of the party organiza-
ton. Chairman Hobbs S DESTROYS of
preserving party harmony at the cost of
shown that he will be slow to do any
thing that might possibly lead to strife
and discord, but, under the existing cir
cumstaDces it would not surprise the
Herald if he were to call the district
together at an early day and
thus throw the responsibility of action
or non action, as tho case may be, upon
the committee, where it properly be-
longs.

1t Does Not Degrade.
rom the Eufaula Times.

From the Eufaula Times.
Too many young people get the notion
in their heads that to labor with the
hands has tendency to degrade. Such
an idea is wrong, no matter from what
point it is viewed. It is far better to do
any sort of honest toll than to loaf about
the streets 1t is better to earn an hon
est living by the industry of the hands
than to live at the expense of parents or
at the sacrifice of honor. Industry and
constant work are the safeguards for So
eiety as a whole, and no doubt the saw
ing mark for the individual. Eet all
young men and women keep in mind
the fact that to be squeamish over hon
-s' toll does not speak well for their flu
ture.

JUDGE CRISP TO SPEAK AGAIN,

Judge Crisp has been interviewed on
the present political situation in Geor-
gia. He says he will resume an active
canvass of the state just as soon as his
health will permit. The judge, in
strong but dignifed words, pays his
respects to some of the prejudiced and
biased newspapers that have intimated
that he was afraid to continue the dis
cussions and feigned sickness.
Upon this question we quote him:
"In view of my long public career,
the number of speeches have made in
many states, and the debates in which
have engaged in the house of represen-
tatives, their contention is somewhat
astonishing. While the press general
ly, both that part of it favoring single
gold standard, as we'll as that part ia
v0ring bimetallism, has been very kind
to me, indeed more than kind, there
are papers in Georgia which are notable
exceptions to this rule. | am glad to
say they are few in number, and their
injustice and misrepresentation has
been so persistent and plain that
think they cannot deceivesaany body
The people believe in fair play"
Judge Crisp has nothing to feal
from the insinuations of these mis-
guided and demoralized brethren
They know that they have alread,
been wallOped and are merely strut
ing and spouting to keep up the ap
pearance of fight. The people G
Georgia are for Judge Crisp whethe
~ he returns to the state or not.

SOME RE3aRxs ron EO7O8 @cWTOsH.

The publication by the state paper
of the fact that the Americas band wa
not permitted to play "DiXie" under
the Chautauqua tent by an official, OF
officials, of that institution on the occa-
sion of the Crisp-Smith debate at AL
bany has caused our usually serene and
good-tempered contemporary, the AL
bany Herald, to work itself into fren-
zy and indulge in some unjust and
inexcusable criticisms. Especially
has the editor of this paper been grossly
misrepresented by Editor Mcintosh.
who has heretofore been wont to pose
as the embodiment of all that is fair
and manly and generous in con-
troversy.
The fact that the Americas band was
stopped from playing the air which is
dear to every southern heart, and
about which so many tender recollec-
lions linger, is not denied by even Ed
itor Mcintosh. The extent of our Of
Tending, and the cause of our contem-
porary's ire and reckless assertions,
seems to TO be the statement by this
paper land the same thing was charged
by others that DIR, Duncan of New
York stopped the music, This the
Herald characterizes as willful miss"AaT1'-
resentation and charges that this edi-
tor was in the tabernacle, close to the
platform, when the incident occurred,
and, therefore, was in position to see
and know just what took place. NOthin"
could be further from the truth. 1t Is
true that the editor of THE News occu-
pied a seat near the stage during the
speaking, but the band incident hap
pened before he reached the tent, and
he knew nor heard nothing of it until
he returned home and read it in the
papers. Neither did we understand Ed
itor Mcintosh, in the several columns
since printed in the Herald upon the
matter, to deny DR.. Duncan's connec-
tion with the affair, but looked upon
his articles as kind of halfway apollo
gies for an unfortunate occurrence.
The failure to catch the denial of Ed
itor Mcintosh, if one was really made, |
may be our fault, as, possibly, we did
not read the Herald's numerous and |
lengthy writings upon the subject as
closely as we might have done.
We accept the Herald's statement,
and, although the band was stopped
by those IN authority under the tent,
we are now satisfied DR.. Duncan did
not do it in person. We never know
ingly misrepresent anyone or any
thing and are always glad OF an oppor-
tunity tomake amends when convinced
that we are in the wrong. And IL the
editor OF the Albany Herald is half as
fair as he would have us believe he is,
he will not be long in retracting his
own unwarranted misrepresentation
