eminent is willing to pay from $500 to 500
for army horses, some very fine remounts
can be secured. 1t is true that horses
full, but such figures will bring them to
market We imagine. however, that there
is somewhat of braggadocio in the state
ment and would expect to find Mr. Noel
driving as hard a bargain with sellers as
any other buyer, and paying about as low
prices.
AS an addenda to the foregoing comes
the announcement that an agent of the
French government has purchased at and
around the race track at Forsyth, near
Chicago, some fifty-fVe head of thorough
breds al $125 or less per head for use in
the French cavalry. This is much of a
departure from the time-honored convic.
ton that the half-bred is much better for
army service than the thoroughbred. Pos
sibly serviceable Skates" can be picked
up around a race track for $125, but it
seems rather doubtful. The price paid
quite justifes our prediction as to figures
that will probably be offered in the Kansas
government. However, we welcome all
buyers who will take our horses-cheap
or high-class. Our own army officers, who
do not make boasts concerning the char
acter of the remounts they purchase, and
who are limited in price, have difficulty
enough in getting horses that fill their
requirements, and If our friends from
France obtain what they want at prices
they can afford to pay, we shall certainly
be glad to deliver to them the goods.

MINTOSH GOT THE PLACE.
VIII BE Justice In the Seventh IL the
Election Holds.


Election Holds.
Robert Mcintosh colored, was elected
justice of the peace of the Seventh militia
district yesterday. He had no opposing
candidate for the office and took the race
In walk with eleven complimentary votes
The election was held at the district
court ground, near the Charleston and Sa-
vannah railroad crossing. on the Ogee-
chez road The managers were Samuel
Elliott, John T.. Bryan and Joseph f. Rey-
nolds. The election was ordered by the
ordinary. and thereby hangs a tale Ever
since the election for the justices of the
peace held early last Janu-
airy, there has been strong
feeling In the Seventh district and a
contest between the two candidates at that
election. These candidates were McIn-
tosh, who formerly had been a constable
and eX-Justice Mcleod King. The vote
then resulted % for Mcintosh and II for
his opponent A claim of a number of I'M
qualified negro voters having cast ballots
for Mcintosh was at once set up by ex-
Justice King, and he announced to the
governor his intentions to contest the cleo
ton. Pending this contest, McIntosh's
commission was withheld.
Mr.. King secured the services of Mr. J.
G. Seasons and Mcintosh retained Mr.
George w. Owens to represent him
lot of evidence on both sides was got
ten together AMI the case was heard by
Judge Falligant about three months ago
The evidence showed fourteen of McIn-
tosh's supporters to have been disuuali-
fled while only three OF Kings were so
judged. That reduced the vote to a tie IA
TO IA, and the judge declared no election
The ordinary then ordered another cleo
ton, naming yesterday as the time.
Ex-Justice King did not run. as he holds
that the ordinary is not legally qualified
TO call magistrates election This pre-
negative he ascribes TO the ex-officio mag
istrate OF the district In which
the contest Is on. This, King claims. has
been the custom and the ex-officio Justice
Of the Seventh has called an election for
Aug. o. He has written the governor APP
prising him Of the facts Of the case Me-
lntosh says the position Is his now
through due process. He does not be-
lieve King can make a contest, as he
were not candidate at the election YES
terday The case really rests now with
the governor II he regards the right Of
the ordinary TO call the election as undues-
tlonable, then Mcintosh viii get the Of
fee, and his commission will come IN a
short while. II. on the other hand, the
governors opinion Is that the ex-oftico
magistrate OF the district should call the
election, the election OF yesterday will be
null and void, and Mcintosh, II he wants
the office, will have 20 run for II again on

cation of the practice Of the city in col
iecting license for prostitution and gam
bling.
The jury as selected consisted of proml-
nent business men and ministers, and il
was an open secret that the jury was not
IN sympathy with the judge in his action
To-day the jury handed in an elaborate
report and with 1t some forty indictments,
most Of them against county officials
There are Two against Judge Overs for
failing to enforce the law against gam
