SAVANNAH, Ga. November Arr

OF the largest firms OF ship-owners and
ship-charterers. BY which Savannah VIII

port and Import Company. with capi-
tai OF 5000 10 start with. and the priyi-
lege OF Increasing II TO 100000. the OBJ
ject being ultimately that the company
shall own its own ships. as well as TO
charter and operate them.
The direct reason FOR this movement
Is the disadvantage 10 which Savannah
has been put by reason Of high ocean
freight rates, as compared with rates
from other ports. the result OF which has
been that Savannah has received less
than her proportion OF the cotton this
season. from which the railroads IN this
section. as well as the port. have be, n
sufferers and this movement Is contem-
plated 10 b for the benefit OF an The
ships will work directly with all the lines

sary there Will be enough OF them TO

view. now that this plan has been ac-
complished. Is the direct expectation Of

Treated with Contempt
To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
The Virginia law giving the power to
Judges Of election to imprison those who
attempt to interfere with the secrecy of
the ballot is unquestionably constitu-
tional. II was used in the election OF 1872
in Richmond. when United States mar
shals and supervisors We're imprisoned in
the city Jail for trying 70 intimate
voters. W. il. II. Miller. President Harrl-
sons vindictive Attorney-General tried

United States Reports and White vs..

by the Times IN its Sundays editorial col
umn TO show that citizens OF Virginia
may be sued In the United States courts
by other citizens Of Virginia for dam
ages for arrest and false Imprisonment
under that law do not sustain the silly
contention OF that most singuarly reck-
less newspaper, which has at last thrown
OFF the mask and is trying to destroy
white supremacy I'm Virginia under the
guise Of honest money. The cases cited
DO not bear upon the question Ia any way
Radicals might have cited them for Judge
BridlegoOse with equal prOprtety had
they been rendered when he wrote. This
purile attempt at bulldozing should be
treated with contempt by all judges OF
election. for there is no lawyer of recog-
nized ability who would stake his roputa-
ton on the soundness Of this pretended
legal opinion Of the Times.

THE POET SCOUT.
Jack Crawford Killed in a Mining
Camp by Stone.

Seattle, August 31.-The news reach
ed this city today of the accidental
death at the Blewett gold mines. near
Blewett, in the Kittetas country, Fri
day evening, of Captain Jack Craw-
ford, who claimed to be the original
poet scout. The accident took place in
what are commonly called the hy-
draulic claims, located a short distance
below Negro creek. Crawford had
been piping" against the bank, and
had stopped upon a small elevation to
see what effect the water was having
on the bank. A rock fell out of the
bank. striking him on the breast He
was thrown backward and fell down
the hill eight or ten feet. striking on
the back of his head among some rocks
He died instantly,
Whether the claim of Crawford to
the title of Poet Scout" was founded
on fact, or was claimed on account
Of resemblance, real or fancied, Of the
famous rover, remains to be seen. 1t
is said that Crawford served in the
United States army and was one Of
Clusters scouts. This probably explains
his claim to being the original Jack
Crawford.

Secretary John Wilson already has
the signed credentials Of over 800, ele-
gates and kilograms announcing that
others are on their way. Thus far but
one delegate has appeared who does
not favor the nomination Of a ticket.
The managers. however, look upon a
ticket in the doubtful states Of vital
Importance. but the general expectation
now Is that an electoral ticket will
be put in almost every state in the
Union. When the present movement
was organized the question Of candi-
dates was considered OF little import
ance. 1t was thought they could be
selected at the conference, but as the
movement has grown the contest has
developed. There is a disposition to
consider the question of nominees more
seriously.
There is, OF course. much talk OF Rir.
Cleveland. but his closest friends are
diseouraging it and there are also
those who believe it would be bad pol
icy to nominate the president or any
one else connected with the admInistra-
tion. The managers have begun to cast
around for vote-getters. The most
prominent name suggested today was
that of Senator George Gray. OF Della
ware. Congressman Outhwaite, Of
Ohio, ex-Minister to Switzerland
Broadhead. of Missouri. and Mr.. By
mum are also talked about to some
extent.
