FL0RIDA'S POLITICAL ASPECT.
PROSPECTS FOR A CLEAN AND IN
TELLIGENT CAMPAIGN.

Republican Nominees of a Higher
Character Than Usual, But with
out Hope of Success--The Seeming
Harmony a Hedge by the Anti-Ad-
ministratiOn Forces - The Strong
Republican Ticket VIII Prove
beneficial to the Democratic Party
of the state by AbOIishing Fac
tiOnaI Fighting-DcmOcra Crate
full for Worthy Opponents.
Tallahassee. Fla, Aug 12-An indica-
lions lead to the conclusion that the pres
ent campaign is to be the cleanest and
most intelligent that Florida has known
in many years. The Republican candi-
dates just nominated are as a rule, men
of excellent personal character, less faint
ed, as a group. with carpet-bagism than
any ticket that party has before placed
in the field. The ticket will strengthen
the Republican organization, just as the
running of clean candidates will help any
political organization
There is excellent authority, however,
for the assertion that the Republicans
have no hope of carrying the state. In
the first place. the Democratic nominees
are emlnently satisfactory to all the Dem
ocratic voters and to a large number of
Independents and disgruntled Repuhh-
cans. True, there was an abundance of
seeming harmony in the Republican con-
vention, but that was explained this
morning by a prominent Republican lead
er who lives in Tallahassee, and who
attended the Ocala convention. The anti
administration Republicans of Florida, led
by Dennis Eagan, postmaster at Jackson
vile, realized before the convention met
the utter hopelessness of opposing the
Mckinley forces, controlled by Judge
John G.. Long of st. Augustine. 1t was
in fact Longs convention, and his fac
tional opponents kept quiet and made pos
sble the much-vaunted show of har-
mony because they did not want to kill
themselves outright with the administra-
ton, and be branded as boilers and po-
hucal insurgents.
The strong position taken by the Re
publicans will have an excellent effect
upon the Democrats of the state. Demo-
cratic voters have in recent years been
afflicted with confidence, and have
been lukewarm not only about working
for the ticket, but even about coming TO
the polls on election day and voting. An
other good effect will be the finishing
touches put upon the abolition of Demo-
cratic fractional fighting. Men whose po-
hucal faith and allegiance have been de-
cidediy uncertain and shiftng-and Flor
ida's Democracy has of recent years had
to contend with very many such men
will now align themselves with one or
the other of the tickets, and the Demo-
cratic organization will know definitely
who it has to oppose and how to oppose
them.
Five of the six candidates on the Dem
ocratic state ticket are now in Tallahas-
see holding the positions for which they
are running to succeed to, and il may
be said upon authority that these men
are much relieved and gratified that the
Republican party has given them respect
able and worthy opponents.

NOW SORRY THAT HE SPOKE.
Secretary McGiu Acknowledge His
Griexons Mistnke.

Atlanta. Ga, Aug. is. Waters Nc
Gill, state secretary Of the Young Men
Christian Association, Is now sorry he
spoke That is to say, he regrets having
written his late letter. in which he charged
dishonesty on the part of some army Of
fcers or attaches in the distribution of
relief funds and supplies.
Secretary McGirs letter brought storm
! about his head at the time. and there was
a demand made for the names of the guilty
ones, as per the accusations in his letter
to Mrs. Gov Atkinson. Secretary McGirs
object was 10 induce the Army and Navy
League of Georgia to allow his association
to take charge Of the distribution of their
funds as there was, ne claimed. an an
noying conflict between that association
and the one he represents. To-day he
prints a card of retraction and explana-
ton. in which he says; First, 1 desire to
say that I am individually responsible for
the statements made by me. Neither the
state executive nor the army committee,
which represent, are in anyway TO blame
for them.
Second, / regret exceedingly that the
letter was ever written, and realize now
very fully that it was a mistake on my
part TO have written it. My motive in
writing the letter was that the good work
which is beng done for the Georgia vol
unteers might be helped, and not hindered.
Third, The facts which l have men
toned are such as have come under my
personal observation, or have been told
me by reliable parties as occurring in ma
tional or state camps and had no refer
ence whatever to our Georgia men. 1t was
mistake on my part that / did not make
all this clear in my original letter.
Fourth, l have the highest respect for
all the colonies, chapiains, quartermastera
and other officers of our Georgia regiments
with whom 1 have been thrown IN contact
in our work, and nothing was further from
my thought than to say or do anything
which would be projudicial to their good
name.
Fifth in justice 10 the men who have
been Internationally offended, and in the
interest of the good work which is being
done at the Georgia camps, | am willing
to proceed further to correct the false inn
preston which has been given and to sat
isfy the parties who have taken offense
as they may deem necessary, and suggest
to me"

GEORGIA REPORTS.
Librarian Brown Has a Scheme for
RepubIishimg Old Volumes.

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. Fin his annual re-
port to the Governor, State Librarian
Brown will make an important recommen-
dalton, looking to the perfection of the
series of Georgia reports.
Under the present law the state library
and the Supreme Court library draw $1,000
from the proceeds of the sale of the re-
ports, the excess of that amount going
into the treasury '-'
Librarian Brown will recommend that an
act be passed, allowing the excess over
$1,000 received from the sale of the reports
to be used in republishing old volumes Of
reports, which are now out of print. Mr..
Brown said to-day that if he succeeds the
funds thus made available would allow
The printing of about two volumes out of
the old reports each year and that in a
few years the state would be in posses
sion of full supply of the reports. At
present it is very difficult to secure a full
set of reports on account of the scarcity
of certain volumes.
Librarian Brown win have the hearty
support of the entire bar of che state in
his work, as there has long been a de-
mand for the completion Of the supply of
reports in the state library
