EDITOR News: A card in the asst is
sue of The News may require some no
uce. Not at home, but abroad. This
card is from the pen of the Hon. I. d.
Sale, Col. I. D. Sale, DR.. 7. u. Sale; DR..
I. D. Sale of Dawson, Ca, who runs a
drug store. The last sentence OF that card
Is expressed in the Queens English"
and is very difficult to be under stood.
We claim to have fair knowledge of the
king English" but this female varie-
ty quite confOunds us. If any disciple of
learning will explain what is meant by
ANY man who says the selling of whis-
key or other like remedies in a drug
store confirms the druggist so selling the
same as OF the barroom element" it
is our treat. But if T. D. Sale meant to
imply OF i'll any degree to insinuate that
we lied then he is another, and that is
the end Of it. But to the facts.
When his Highness, DR.. i. D. Sale,
took exceptions to the term "barroGm
element we very willingly gave him an
explanation, of which the following is
an exact copy:
Sin our circular letter of the 22nd
inst, in which 5he expression the bar
room element is used, we take pleasure
in stating that we intended no reflection
upon the aDti-dispensarY committee or
any member of it.
"Our object was to distinguish between
those favOring dispensaries and those
who prefer that the present method of
running barrooms should be continued"
This would have satisfied any sensible
intelligent gentleman, but his Highness,
Dr. L. D. Sale, was still unappeased. He
rushed into print. His effusion is before
the public. '"rhe mountain labored and
the mouse is BORN
Now, the trouble is that 7. D. Sale at
taches more importance to the opinions
of I. D. Sale than a generous public is
willing to c0ncede. He is ''self-made
man" and not one of the crowd that
'God Almighty made" Hence his I'm.
portance. He belongs t. that class OF
which Ben Johnson wrote:
60 lis air he treads,
And at each step
He feels bis advanced head
Knock out a star in heaven"
The truth is, Mr.. T. D. Sale feels that
he is in the predicament of cold d e
Tray" He is evidently ashamed of tn,
company of which he is a voluntary
| member.

To his Highness, 7, D. Sale, we say:

THE GOVERNOR SET RIGHT.

He Overdraws the Picture of the Killing of
the Negro Mistaken for Lum Warren.
Governor Atkinson's severe arraien-
ment and condemnation of lynching
IN his message to the general assembly
has attracted considerable attention
throughout the country and been the
medium of mach undesirable adyertis-
ing of Georgia
Not only has he OyerdraWn the pict-
ure OF such lawlessness, but the COVER
NOR has given Georgia credit for one
lynching that did not occur within her
borders. In his message the governor
says:
Il believe that during my admins
tration there have been in this state
several men Iynched who were not
guilty of the crime with which they
were charged. How many can never
be known, for their tongues are hush
ed and they are denied an opportunity
TO prove their innocence. | am in
formed that one man whom the men
believed guilty was shot down. A
question then arose as to his identify
and he was sailed down like a hog,
shipped to the location of the crime
and found to be the wrong man-an in
nOcent man.
Many people have inquired for the
particulars of the case cited above by
the governor. The fact is, no such
crime has ever occurred in Georgia,
either before or during Governor At
kinson's administration. The man re-
ferred to by the governor in the para
graph Of his message here quoted was
shot down not by mob, but while he
was resisting arrest. Besides, he was
killed in Alabama and not in Georgia
He was pursued because of the report
that he was Lum Warren, the Ran
dOlph county rapist, and after the Kill
ing his body was carried to Cuthbert
for Identification. Had the man sub
mltted to arrest he would never have
been hurt.
