Meeting of the State Board of Control.

COLUMBIA, April 9.-There is good
deal Of talk in the city about the meeting
of tho State Board OF Control, which ad-
iourned last night. There was good
deal of surprise as to the results of the
elections and great deal more at those
that did not occur. 1t is to be noted that
the positions of chairman of the board
and chief clerk to the board were left
open, there being deadlock on the mat
ter. Chairman Jones could have been
reelected chairman of the board had he
voted for himself, but this he declined to
do, and he will not do so. This morning
some of his friends advised him to take
such action and settle the deadlock. Mr..
Jones is entirely Indifferent to his re-
election, but does not care TO be summa-
rily deposed unless there is some cause
for it.
AS to the election of the clerk there has
been no end of talking. So far as is known
there has been no avowed or regular cam
didate for the position against Mr..
Scruggs. The name of Mr.. w. III. Law
renee, of Darlington County, has been
mentioned in connection with the place,
and many seem to think that he..would get
the place last night and in many quarters
there is much surprise that no action was
taken in the matter. Mr.. Scruggs, how
ever, still holds the fort, and his friends
think that he will be elected by the board
when the election does occur, while on
the other hand those who are making the
fight on Mr. Scruggs insist that he can
never be elected by the board. 1t is a
merry fight.
It was said that Mr.. B. Montoue, who
for many years lived in Charleston, and
who knows what he is about at all times,
had said that he would offer the State q
net profit OF $3.50, 900 per year for the dis
pensary business. Mr.. Montoue was saen
about the matter this morning and said
that he had made no formal proposition
of this kind to the State Board of Control
because he knew that the board had no
authority to consider such proposition.
Mr.. Montoue says that, without the slight
est reflection on the management OF the
dispensary, he thinks that, with the ex-
perience Of those he would expect to as
sociate with him, he could make money
out of the business and still pay the State
$250000 net. He says he has made such
remark and that at any time that the
State would entertain such proposition
he would be perfectly willing to form the
syndicate to take charge of the business.
OF course the understanding would have
to be that everything in the law, as it
now stands, was to be enforced to the let
ter, and bond would be placed with the
State for the absolute observance OF the
law as it now stands.
While there may be nothing whatever
in the matter it is certainly good thing
to think about. Mr.. Montoue is not a
dreamer, but a solid, substantial citizen
who went out of the wholesale liquor
business when the State passed the dis
pensary law.-NeW and Courier.

To Wed Again.
Atlnntn Journal. Ap1.iL Q.

Gov. Atkinson announces to-day that
his son, Mr.. J. p. Atkinson, will be re-
married to Miss BYRD in Chattanooga
Sunday next. Miss Byrd is now in Chat
tanooga visiting Mrs. Mansfield, friend
Of Mrs. Byrd.
Gov. Atkinson, Capt. Oscar Brown.
Judge Spencer Atkinson, Of The Supreme
Court, and Judge Joseph S. Turner, Mr..
and Mrs. Byrd and DR.. Henry McDon-
aid, who will perform the ceremony, will
&c up to Chattanooga Saturday night to
be present at the ceremony. This will
be performed at Mrs. Mansfield's home.
Sunday evening the party will return
to Atlanta, and Mr.. j. P. Atkinson and
his bride will 60 the mansion, where for
the present they will reside.
MIR. J. p. Atkinson will continue as one
of the sccretarios of the executive de-
partment.
Miss, Byrd taught in mission Sunday
School connected with the Second Bap-
tist Church, and her pastor, DR.. McDon-
aid, has, therefore, been selected to SOL
emnze the marriage.
This will be the happy consummation
of romance that has attracted general
interest
The determination that is SO striking q
characteristic of his father has been in
herited in a full degree by the son, as
young Atkinson's persistence in making
Miss Byrd his wife shows. Though but
l6 years old, he has overcome all the bar
riers that his youth and parental opposi-
ton on both sides could interpose
Some weeks prior to the time the cere-
mony in Rome was performed, he made
an attempt to steal the girl, and was only
prevented by the personal exertions of
the Governor himself.
The young lady's parents, who, like
Gov. Atkinson and his wife, strongly OBJ.
ected to the match, because of the youth
fu!ness of the sweethearts chiefly, sent
their daughter off to the home of kins-
man near Gainesville.
The hoy learned her whereabouts and
followed her, and carried her to Kings
ton, where they were married by JUS
tice of the Peace. Even after this every
thing was done to persuade them to live
apart until their schooling at least had
been finished. The boy was obstinate,
however, and finally forced his parents
and Miss Byrd to let their love have its
way. 1t was, therefore, decided to have
the ceremony performed second time,
and in more solemn manner, and today
the Governor and Mr.. Byrd fixed Sun
day az the date for the second ceremony.

Last week municipal elections were
held in the States Of Michigan, Ohio and
other sections of the northwest, and were
almost landslide in favor of the Demo-
crats. In Cincinnati the Democratic
ticket won by majority of 1000 as
against 1000 plurality for Mckinley last
sNovem ber. In Hamilton, olumbus,
Zanesville, Akron, Springfield, (the home
of Gov. BushnelD, Canton, Major Nc
Kinley's home), and in most of the small
er towns, Democratic tickets were elect
ed, showing great gains over the Novem-
ber election. The results in Ohio have an
important significance. 1t has placed the
Democrats in control Of the machinery
for the election of Legislature and State
officers mex tNovem ber The Legislature
elected then will choose successor in the
Senate to Mark Hanna, and all present
indications point to that man as Demo
crat. Chicago elected Carter II. Harri-
son, Democrat, mayor by nearly $4,000
plurality, over the Republican nominee.
Last November the city gave good
round majority for Mckinley. In Mich
igan, Detroit, Battle Creek and other i'm
portant towns were carried by the Demo-
Gratis. Gov. Pingree, who has had the
mayor's office at Detroit so long, pre-
empted for Republican friend, was COM
pletely ovsrLhrown. Evansville, Ind,
and Butte. Mon, were likewise carried
by good majority. Thus the pendulum
begins to swing the other way, and the
country is beginning to right itself.

Destruction by the Flood.

ST. LOUIS, April 1O.-St. Louis factors
say enormous damage has been done to
the cotton planting interest of the South
as the result of the flood in Arkansas,
Mississippi, Louisiana and portion OF
Southeastern Missouri. 1t is estimated
on conservative basis that the inundated
territory along the line produces an an
nual average Of 800 900 bales of the high
est grade cotton. From present indica-
tions the average output will be material y
reduced by the ravages of the waters; in
fact, in many localities it is doubtful il
any crop at all will be raised, while in
others there will be sickly yield. A
million and half bales of cotton, even at
the ordinary price, aggregates probably
S50,000000 and conservative estimates
place the damage to cotton alone at about
this figure, not to take into consideration
other LOSES incident to the flood.
