ton critical. One deputy killed, an

Colonel Lawton, late commander Of
the Second Georgia regiment, U. s. w.,
also wired the governor to send a
quantity of carbines and ammunition
for the soldiers. Colonel Lawton has
been ordered by the governor to take
charge of what troops may be sent
there. He has enough men, 1t is believ-
ed, to easily handle the situation. The
rs members of the First Georgia, who
were left here two days ago, when old
man Delegal was taken to Savannah,
are patrolling the town. All saloons
are closed and the strictest order is
maintained.
Nearly every negro has left town and
last night word came that they are
massed in Delegal's swamp, IL miles
from town. They are known to be
armed, and posse Of citizens left on a
special train for the place. They will
maintain guard over the negroes and
keep them from doing any damage
during the night. A telegram was sent
to Brunswick urging all white citizens
to come to Darien. A boat was dis,
patched to carry them to this city and
special train will be ready in case
more want to come. The presence of
the whites Is wanted to overawe the
negroes, who are we'll aware of their
superiority in numbers.

The activity of general trade con-

tinues. The volume of business in
some departments is limited by the
inadequacy OF productive capacity
to meet the extraordinary demand.
Mills and factories, with remark
ably few exceptions, are crowded
with orders for weeks or months
ahead, and in the iron trade the ex-
ceptional conditions have induced
many consumers to anticipate re-
quirements for over a year to come.
The trend Of prices of leather and
its products. of textile manufactures
OF iron and still many other lines of
manufactured goods continues up

crop checks a material rise in cot
ton prices, while wool, having scor-
ed sharp advance. halts in its up
ward course tor some depletion of
the big stocks already accumulated
by consumers. A sens ational break
of $40 to \ OF a cent per pound in
sugar prices is an outcome of the
war between the Sugar Trust and
its independent rivals, and is an ex-
ceptional evidence Of price weak
ness. In most other departments
values have been we'll maintained,
and confidence in their stability as
well as in the continuance of the
present activity of business is a
significant feature of the trade situ-
alton. Railroad earnings continue
to show substantial gains, and the
big freight tonnage in all directions
has caused a scarcity Of cars for
some lines Of traffic, notably in the
grain trade. Business failures

TT FEELS

Our esteemed contemporary, the Bill
ings Times, now feels better about the
letting of the county printing contract,

tention to oensure the commissioners. "
Very good, indeed; The Gazette only
took up the matter because the Times
threatened dire vengeance against
them, but since the threat don't co."
we breathe easier, while the commits
sioners will no doubt thank the Times
for according them permission to live.
The Times denies that it was coached
by au alleged newspaper publisher in
preparing it's bid, but admits that it
knew the contract had been awarded
The Gazette when it's bid was rendered.
That, of itself, shows bad faith, but
the publisher of the Times also admits
that he said to the commissioner that
If he wal in their place he would award
the contract to The Gazette. That
certainly shows Editor Morris good
Judgment, aud we are surprised that
he publicly aired his alleged grievances
when he had been ''passed up like n
white chip
However, as long as the commission
ers acted just as the editor Of the Times
would have done had he been in their
place, we presume that everything il
lovely with u contemporary; either
that, or its editor must stultify himself
IN critioising their action. But we are
gratitied to learn that our contempt
rary feels better. On mature reflection
1t has no doubt concluded that the COM
m%issioners renderd 1t a distinct service
by not awarding it the contract at it's
figures. which The Gazette
has already pointed out. So, the COM
missioneis. the Times and The Gazette,
being Of one mind as to which paper
should have received the county print
ing contract, we can all shake hands
across the bloody ohasm and we hereby
promise that, If in the future we have
any printing contracts on hand we de-
sire to slough Off. the esteemd Times
shall be given the first consideration.
