HARDwICK's DEFENSE.

The answer which Mr.. Hardwick of
Washington county made to the attack
on him by the Sandersville Herald for his
vote against the Wilingham bill. is about
as strong an argument as can be made
against that bill from the standpoint of
politics It was made clear by him that
local option is the policy of the Dem
ocratic party of this state, and That pro-
hibition is the policy of the Populists.
The Herald accused Mr.. Hardwick OF
voting against the wishes of the majority
of the people of his county. He showed
that while it is true that his county is a
dry" county, II is not in favor of fore
ing its liquor policy on those counties
which believe in different policy in re-
spect to liquor. He called attention to he
fact that the question of prohibition for
the whole state was squarely presented to
the voters of his county in the campaign
in which Mr.. Seaborn Wright was a can
didate for Governor against Mr.. Atkinson
In that campaign a clear majority was
given against prohibition and for the Dem
ocratic candidate. Wright was the Pop
ulits and Prohibition candidate and At
kinson the Democratic and local OPP
ton candidate. In the preceding two
gubernatorial elections the county gave
Populist majorites.
No better evidence is needed than this
that if the question of prohibition were
submitted to the people it would be voted
down. There are many men in each of
the prohibition counties who favor sup
pressing the liquor traffic, but they be-
lleve in doing it by means of local option.
They understand very well that ii is ut
terly impossible to enforce prohibition
where public sentiment is against it, and
that therefore If a general prohibition law
were to be enacted as much liquor would
be sold in the state as there is now. II
would be sold, however, surreptitiously
and neither the state nor the cities would
| derive any revenue from 1t. There would
be the same expenses to bear for the en-
forcement of the laws for the suppression
OF crime. Indeed, the expenses for MAIN
| tanning the laws might be greatly increas-
ed. because officers would have to be APP
pointed and paid 20 hunt down viola tors
Of the prohibition law. Mr. Hardwick

The British cabinet, according to ca
BILE, has already decided what shall be
done with certain prominent Beers when
the war is over. Kruger, Stein and Reitz
will be expatriated. ii is said, while GER
tain others will be excluded from the coun-
try for a term of years. Indemnity for
the war will be eXacted from the two re-
publics, taxes being collected by impe-
rial officers until the indemnity is paid.
1t is probable that the two Presidents,
along with Joubert and other generals,
would put themselves at the front as a
mark for British bullets should their cause
appear hopeless and thus forestar the in
tentions of the conquerors to send them
into exile.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Springfield. (Mass.) Republican Qnd)
would not greatly regnet the defeat of
Senator Morgan in Alabama. 1t recalls
his "senseless, bitter TRADES against Mr..
Cleveland during his second administra-
tion,' and adds: Men like Morgan-and
Daniel OF Virginia might also be named
need excite no personal sympathy now
mat they deplore the pre-eminence of Mr..
Bryan with the Democratic masses and
yearn for a new dispensation with Bryan
eliminated. Who made Bryan possible,
il not Morgans and Daniels of the democ-
racy-who preached free silver and assail-
ed President Cleveland and Secretary Car
Isle with unmeasured ferccity when those
officials were saving the public credit?"
The Pittsburg Dispatch (Rep.) says:
There is one aspect of the Roberts case
that may be beneficial. The admission of
Utah TO statehood was compassed by par
tisan greed for more delegates and more
party representation in Congress. II the
manner in which is rises 10 plague those
responsible for il shall teach caution for
the future in the matter of creating Dor
ough states IL viii have served a good
purpose. Not one of the immature states
admitted from the Western territories has
failed to bring its penalty with it,"
The Houston cTex) Post Dem) says:
THE abolition of the tariff alone will
possibly not kill the industrial combines,
but that it would go far in mat direction
can hardly be doubted. The easy impor-
tation at this time of foreign tin plate
would not orly compel the trust to reduce
its exorbitTnt prices. but to improve its
product The consequent fall in the value
Of its watered stock might soon result In
the complete destruction OF the trust it.

Sea time, as most people know. instead
of being reckoned by hours, is divided into
watches Of four hours each. says Co.
ller's Weekly. From O'Clock to 8, and
8 O'Clock to s, there are half divisions,
rautically termed dog watches"
In a recent admiralty case the counsel
asked an old sailor at what time of day a
certain collision occurred, and received the
reply, About the middle of the first dog
watch"
In summing up the case, the newly ad-
mitted admiralty proctor enlarged upon
the Information thus impaired as follows:
You can imagine, gentlemen OF the jury,
the care which existed on this occasion,
when, as appears from one Of the plaintiff $
own witnesses, this valuable snip and her
cargo, and the lives of passengers and
crew, were intrusted to what gentlemen?
why, to the mere watch of a dog!'

New York often congratuiates herself
upon having the finest and smartest police
men in the world. 1t is a part of the
business Of the police to keep people from
being bunkoed, and the newspapers of the

that policemen were among the best Gus
toners of Miller's fraudulent Franklin

While much sentiment is being worked
up in New York against Congressman
Brigham II. Roberts because he has three
wives, an astute lawyer has discovered
that it is possible for a resident of New
York to have three wives at the same time,
and all legal wives under the law. The
statutes provide that if the wife of a man
leaves him and he can find no trace of her
for five years ne may marry again. If
the second wife follows the example
OF the first and remains away five years
the man may marry a third time. Having
acquired third wife. should the two miss
ing spouses turn up alive and we'll there
is no law on the statute books which would
prevent them from living with the man
should they desire 10 do so. Thus" says
the lawyer, you see it is possible for
New Yorker to acquire three ,egaI wives,
all living, within the period of eleven
years" Meantime, it would probably not
be safe for New Workers to act upon the
opinion of this astute attorney.
