BRUNSWICK HEARS THE NEWS.
Col. EstiII Has Loyal Supporters

Therefor. Butts Tells of His Work
for Democracy.
Brunswick. Ga, July S1.-Political
talk which has been somewhat on the
wane here for the past few days was
considerably revived by the interview
sent out from Atlanta last night in
which Major Ryals placed Col. Estill
in the race for Governor. The an
nouncement coming in the shape that
it did convinces the politicians that
Mr.. Turner will not be in the contest
and that Col. Estill will be the stan
dard bearer from South Georgia. This
is the understanding that they
will fight under and Col Estill will
find loyal supporters in Glynn.
DIR. j. A. Butts, one of Glynn's most
prominent citizens and one who has
held many places of trust on behalf
of the people in a talk with cores
pendent this afternoon said: THE
democracy of the South and of Geor-
gia particularly owe a great deal to
Col. Estill and he will get good sup
port in his race should be finally de-
eide to follow the advice of
his friends and admirers. 1 have
Deen reading the Morning news IoT
thirty odd years, and during that time
it has always been for organized DEM
ocracy For at least twenty-five years
of that time Col. Estill has been its
editor, and around him has conferred
the storms that formerly were gone
through with by Col Thompson, its
former editor before him.
During the reconstruction period
when Florida seemed to be counting
strange politics. the Morning News
was a power in upholding Democratic
principles, and its large circulation in
the state made its influence of vast
Importance. 1t has never wandered off
after strange vagaries or fought out
side Of the party lines. and we of this
section owe a. great deal to the paper
and Col. Estill for keeping this section
of the state in solid ranks for the party.
l am sure Col. Estill will get all the
support he needs, and will make a wise
and businesslike chief executive"

have instituted, through their attor-
neys and John r. dosPassos. counsel,
a proceeding to take the case of
Charles Bennett, an alleged associate
of THE" Allen, to the United States
Circuit Court, on the ground that Sec
tons 343 and 351 of the penal code of
this state in regard to gambling, are
contrary and repugnant to the con-
stitution of the United States. and the
amendments thereto. and the laws of
the United States"
Mr.. dosPassos said that II the United
States Circuit Court sustained the ale
cation that the state laws were I'M
constitutional it would have the effect
of making illegal the sentences of all
the gamblers raided and afterward
convicted by the committee of fifteen.
and would necessitate a revision Of the
laws as they pertain to gambling in
the state of New York. This is the
first time a step of this character has
been taken in this state.

KANSAS AGAIN is HOT.
Estimates OF Corn Crop Are Raised
to Cne-HaIf.

Topeka, Kan, July 31.-Hot weather
again has returned to Kansas, but
nothing like that before the breaking
of the drought. The temperature reach
ed 100 here to-day. and some prostra-
tions are reported on account of the
humidity. At Leavenworth there was
one death from the heat.
Rains fell last night in numerous dis
tricts and continued until early this
morning. No rains were reported this
afternoon. Estimates of the crop have
increased until half-crop is not re-
garded as improbable by many.
Farmers are as busy planting and
replanting as in the springtime, and
seed houses are working overtime to
supply the demand. Millet, sorghum,
kaffir corn, and even radishes and tur-
nips are being planted FOR feed.
Fruit is in good condition and a good
yield of apples and peaches is expected.

ANOTHER KIND OF FAIR.

While the thousands who viewed the
attractions of Dawson's street fair en-
loved it, the carnival does not belong
TO that class of shows which will do
Dawson and Terrell county the most
good. Something which would demon
strate to advantage the many and
varied products of the county would
be far more beneficial.
Why couldn't the city and county
have something of this kind in Daw-
son next fall? An exhibit of the ag-
ricultural products and live stock of
Terrell county would undoubtedly
possess numerous advantageous feat
ures, not the least of which would be
the healthy stimulus of interest
among the agricultural folS. A few
tented attractions could be easily Sc
cured, and there is no question but
that these would pay handsome net re-
turns. Some such name as the
Terrell County Agricultural and Live
Stock Fair would possess magnetism
as an attraction which is not felt in
outside companies, whose sole interest
in Dawson consists in the number of
silver wheels they can get from the
people; it would arouse local pride and
consequent local enthusiasm, and then
the cruise to success would be wonder
fully easy sailing.
AS an agricultural county Terrell
has an enviable and growing repu-
tation. The farmers of the coun-
ty are among the most intelligent and
progressive in the state, and if they
become interested We can get up an
exposition OF magnificent quality and
proportions.
Let's think il over.

The verdict of the Schley court of

surprise, and yet it is not. The fight
ing admiral had no reason to ex-
pect anything resembling fairness
from court two members of which
are recognized members of the naval
cabal 80 desperately opposed to him
and to him receiving credit rightfully
his. Benham and Ramsey formed
their verdict long before any evidence
was introduced
Admiral Dewey, the president of the
court, has rendered his second great
service to the country by recording q
dissenting opinion, sustaining Schley
in every count and alleging him en-
titled to full credit in the famous San-
tiago sea conflict.
Hon. Isador Raynor. Schley's bril-
liant and interchangeable counsel, will
put himself to s world of unnecessary
trouble and labor by pushing the mat
ter any further, as the country at large
rendered verdict in favor of Schley
the next day after he won the Santa
go battle, and is still fully satisfied
with its own verdict.
