ABOLITION OF SALOONS.
Mr.. Beauchamp's Lectures Deserving
of Much Larger Audiences.

Mr.. Beauchamp's Lectures Deserving
of Much Larger Audiences.
Mr.. Lou J. Beauchamp addressed rather
a small audience last night at the Baptist
church. This was the third of Mr.. Beau
champs lectures on temperance, deliver
ed in this city under the auspices of the
Womans Christian Temperance Union,
but there were fewer present last night
than at either of the other lectures.
Mr.. Beauchamp noticed this fact and
said that during his twenty years of tenn
perance lecturing, Savannah is the first
city he has reached in which he is greet
ed with decreasing audiences. He said
he did not feel fully assured of the advisa-
bility of continuing his addresses as in
terest in them seem but slight Whether
to ascribe this apathy to his own inability
to arouse Savannah enthusiasm, or the
fact that the city is not ready or DESTROYS
of receiving a temperance reform move
ment, he did not known.
The speaker said he was almost deter
mined to give up the task of trying to do
any good work in the temperance cause
here and return at some future day, when
the times would be more auspicous. He
said he thought that because we are just
on the eve of a great election and the in
terest aroused in consequence, the peoples
interest in his lectures is at low ebb.
1t was determined to secure Odd Eel
lows hall for his lecture tonight at S:l5
o'clock. and, in the event of there being
display of awakened interest given by a
large audience, to use the same place for
his addresses tomorrow, Tuesday, and
Wednesday nights.
Mr.. Beauchamp's lecture last night was
greatly injoyed by his audience 1t was
devoted to a discussion of the saloons ana
the best methods to achieve their abol-
ton. As usual, his address was inter
spersed with good stories and hashes OF
wit
Rev. ]. H. Scrugg of Trinity church offer
ed a prayer before the address and made
good talk at its conclusion. The ladies'
of the w. c. r. U. hope that the public
win give Mr.. Beauchamp the encourage-
ment his entertaining lectures deserve. by
gathering in larger numbers at the nan
tonight.

SOLICITOR GENERALsHIP FIGHT.
1t Was the Subject of Much Conn
ment at the state Capitol.
From Saturdays Constitution

From Saturdays Constitution
1t was brilliantly fought campaign On
both sides. The general verdict was that
the successes were due more to the man
agement and skill of Hon. Fleming G.
duBignon than to any other one man. He
was the central figure in the whole fight.
He made the contest for solicitor general
in the eastern circuit his own personal
campaign, and all the other races circled
about that one. Mr. duBignon was ably
assisted by his candidate Mr. Osborne.
and by Hon. Pope Barrow. Mr.. Osborne's
law partner They were opposed by Hon.
Peter w. Meldrim, Hon. John J. McDon-
ough and Mr.. Fraser Maj. Meldrim is a
shrewd manager, dashing general, VINO
had often been pitted against Mr. duBig-
non. First one wins and then the other
Honors are generally even between them.
Ex-Mayor John McDonough is a political
manager of fine ability himself. The first
time he was elected mayor of Savannah
ne never announced his candidacy until
within forty-eight hours of the opening
OF the polls, and he won by a good ma
Jorlty over thoroughly organized opposi-
tlon. When he goes into a campaign ne
works at it just as he does at his ex-
lellslVe DuSlA95S. Mr.. Fraser had staunch
relatives and friends in the assembly. and
seven of the eight votes from his cir
cut. But his opponent, with only one
vote, that of Senator Geiger of the First
district, so placed it that every candidate
won for whom the senator voted.
Mr.. OSBORNE had four years the start of
MS opponent, because he had been work
ing for the solicitorship all that time Mai
Meldrim put up a fine fight under the cir
cumstances, but the odds were against
him from the start. Mr.. duBignon has kept
IN close touch with state politics and his
success demonstrated his popularity when
no party question figured in the matter.
he received maqy congratulations yes
terday on his skill and adroitness. Com
binations figure in all these elections be-
fore the general assembly and the winners
are those who make the shrewdest all
liances.
Toward the last the plays were made
with lightning-like rapidity Votes were
changed from side to side and the leaders
on either side did not sleep and scarcely
took time to eat. And on Thursday night
many candidate and worker did not close
his eyes until after sunrise There were
some who did not get any sleep or rest I'M
til yesterday afternoon. The winners had
callers all day long, until finally they be-
came worn out receiving congratulations.
And F. G. duBignon was credited by all
as the successful leader.
