Very Respectfully,

The Bell Telephone has larger list
of subscribers now than at any time
since its establishment in Marietta.
1t is stated. that the Tuscaloosa (Ala.)
cotton mills paid SO per cent last year ;
Newman cotton mills 20 per cent; La
Grange, 40 per cent; and the Trion, AZ
per cent. 1t looks as if Marietta might
build one that would pay 20 per cent.
1t looks now as if Governor Gambler
will oppose Senator Steve Clay for Q.
S. Senator two years from now. 1t
looks that way now. He has Zone eye
on it, and refuses to answer yes or no.
Two years is an awful long time, and a
heap of things can happen between now
and then.

A WARM CASE.
Two Courts Pass Upon An Ap.
pIicatiOn for License.

One of the warmest little fights
that has been before the courts in
many day grew out of the appli
cation of ST Franklin for merchants
license to sell liquor at Milford.
The first application came up for
hearing at the March term of
county court. Judge Rochester
refused to grant the license, and a
new application was put i'm at the
April term, and the matter set for
a hearing last Saturday. When
the day came, the attorneys filed
an affidavit with the county clerk
swearing" Judge Rochester off of
the bench. When the hour for
trial arrived, Judge Rochester was
on the bench and announced that
he was ready TO hear the attorneys
for the applicant on the affidavit,
but the attorneys took the position
that the filing of the affidavit
vacated the bench without further
ceremony, and they declined to go
before Rochester. He declined to
vacate, dismissed the motion ask
ing for the license and adjourned
court. Inthe mean time the near
est magistrate had been summoned,
and Squire Frank Conger took the
bench, and then came lively ar
gument as to the right of the mag
istrate to preside and take up the
casa. He decided that he could
legally sit as the court and then
followed the hearing of the case.
After hearing the witnesses, and
argument, Squire Conger refused
to grant the license, and thus end
ed the tempest.
