No LOgrOIIing for Judgeships!
From the Macon Telegraph (Dem.).

If by political intrigues unfit men are
nominated for the supreme bench, there
will be a serious revolt In Georgia, and
there ought to be. The people should at
tend to this matter in season. The integ-
rity of the supreme bench must be main
tanned. The court of last resort must be
kept above the atmosphere of the dema-
gogue, and beyond the' reach of the pot
hunter. The greatest care should be taken
in selecting men to pass upon human life
and liberty, and the rights of property.

The situation in Texas.
From the Houston Post Dem.).

Populists all over the state are calling
loudly to know how the populist nomi-
nees for electors stand on the presidency.
but, up to date, only six have declared
their intentions. Four of these are for
Mckinley and two for Bryan. Under the
law of evidence, 1t must be inferred that
the silent nine are for Mckinley.

Would WATSON Be a Candidate.

would watson BE a Candidate.
In the event of another election for gov
ernor in this state in the near future,
would Mr.. Watson be a candidate? And
IL so, what would be his chances for be-
ing elected? These are questions that
will be asked during the contest for Unit
ed States senator, for which Office Gov.
Atkinson is a candidate.
Neither Mr.. Watson nor his friends, as
far as we know, have discussed the po-
ltical situation that would exist in this
state if there should be vacancy in the
gubernatorial office. 1t may be that Mr..
Watsons experiences as a candidate of
the populists for Vice President have been
such as to disgust him with politics to
such an extent that for years to come
he will be satisfied to devote his time
t. his newspaper ard his profession but,
as a rule, men who have an ambition for
political power never abandon politics.
1t may be assumed, therefore, that in
the event of another gubernatorial con-
test this year, or early next year. the
populists would nominate a candidate;
and they would nominate Mr.. Watson If
he would accept the nomination.
Would he be a strong candidate? We
think he would, and for two reasons. One
is he would get the support of the re-
publicans If he could, and he would have
very little difficulty in doing that, because
the republican leaders are anxious to see
the Georgia democracy defeated and de-
moralized. Another is that Mr.. Watson
is more popular in the state now than at
any previous time. In the first place,
there is much sympathy for him. It is
thought he has been badly treated In
the second place, there is considera BILE
admiration for him, because of his firm
ness in standing up for his principles and
his party, Notwithstanding the efforts that
have been made to have him withdraw
from the populist ticket. He has been
consistent and straightforward in all he
has done since his nomination by the pop
ulist national convention, and because he
has been 50, and because of the treatment
he has received, the populists would rally
to his standard to man if he were a
candidate for governor and they would
make extraordinary efforts to elect him.
And there may be many democrats who,
while they would not vote for him, would
be Indifferent as to the outcome of the
contest.
While we do not think he could be elect
ed, still it must be apparent to those who
look at the situation candidly that he
would poll considerably larger vote than
Mr.. Wright did, while it would be pretty
hard matter at special election to get
out as large a democratic vote as was
! polled in October 1t is true the popu-
| lists are now demoralized, but how long
would It take Mr.. Watson to reorganize
| them, and if he could make an alliance
antagonist he would be!

The closer the election approaches, the
more nervous the nervous people become.
Those who are apprehensive Of fnan-
cial troubles are not confined to those
who are rich. They are found among
those who are in only moderate circum-
stances, and those who have accumulated
only a few hundred dollars.
The financial institutions are not great
ly disturbed. They appear to be more con-
cerned about the falling off in their de
posits than anything else. The decline
in the amount of the deposits makes
money scarce and dear, However, tine
election will be over in very few days,
after which it is to be hoped normal
condition of affairs will return.

Thomas B. Reed will probably fail
OF the presidential nomination this
year, but he will not fall into OBSCURE
ty. He will be the same sterling, zeal
Gus, able patriot and Republican that
he has always been, ever ready to lead
his country and party on the road of
progress. Whether in Congress or
out, Mr.. Reeds masterful mind will
work itself to the very forefront and
his great worth will be appreciated.
We have few men of his calibre in the
country fact that all recognize. He
has come into prominence rapidly of
late and his star is only just rising. The
year 1900 is not far off and stranger
things have happened than would be

The Mckinley movement in YER
mont was undeniably bona tide ris-
ing of the people. The party leaders,
with hardly any exception were for
Reed. The Maine man had also
many honest supporters among the
rank-and-file. But the great majority
who howled themselves hoarse for the
Little Corporal and trod under foot
all opposition were the plain, ordi-
nary Republican voters who, thor

The Boston Herald breaches SER
mon, taking as text the slow growth
Of Vermont since 1860, during the
high protective period and pointing
out the blindness Of Vermontefs in
solidly supporting system under
which the state has not prospered.
The Herald does not and cannot show
just how Vermont has been injured
by protection, but simply because it
has not thriyed like other sections it
argues that the tariff must be respon-
sible. One thing is certain. After a
brief and unpleasant acquaintance
with Democratic low tariff the pco
pie Of Vermont will take the first pos
sib!e opportunity to show their prefer.
ence for protection, under which the
state was far more prosperous than it
is today.

Having definitely settled the gov

into the arena with the next lieuten-

Brandon, who has been mentioned
for the place, is not a candidate.
Fisk, after vainly lodging the scores
and hundreds OF "friends" who have
been after him in frantic pursuit, has
finally been lassoed and dragged
forth, much against his desire, to
bear the burden of the second Office

The correspondence in the case Of
DR.. Jameson which was published
last week, shows beyond doubt that
the raid on the Transvaal was not a
filibustering expedition planned by
Jameson himself but that it was de-
liberately ordered by Cecil Rhodes,
the late head of Cape Colony. Great
Britain's direct responsibility for the
act is therefore in question. Four
members of the so-called reform COM
mittee OF UiLlanders, who pleaded
guilty to a charge of high treason
against the South African Republic,
were sentenced to death last week but
President Kruger committed the SEN
tence to that of Imprisonment for a
term Of years. The Boer government
has shown remarkable magnanimity
to those who conspired to overthrow
it.

The amount OF lying done by the
anti-Mckinley forces is inuring to
their own injury. In the first place
they charged Mckinley with running
a ''boodle" canvass and seeking to
buy the nomination. This claim fell
fiat and nothing has been heard OF it
lately. Next they began systematic
Misrepresentation in regard to the
number of Mckinley and anti-Mc-
kinley delegates elected, claiming far
more than they could reasonably rely
upon. Then they said that some del
egates, who had been instructed for
Mckinley would not vote for him.
Concerning the Vermont convention
it was reported that the resolution ia
voring the Ohio candidate had been
tabled, which was absolutely untrue.
Lastly, Senator Proctor was said to
have wired Manloy that in spite of
the resolutions the Vermont delega-
tion would be solid for Reed. Proc
tor hasn't reputation for commit
ting political suicide and nobody in
this section believed the report, which
the senator fastened to correct. All
these things are extremely distasteful
to the plain, honest voter and attach
him unconsciously to the Mckinley
side. 1t is strange that men esteemed
az shrewd political managers should
adopt such self-destructive tactics.
The Boston Journal, in its frantic en-
deavor to make New England solid
for Reed, has been guilty of shocking
Misrepresentation.
