thing from him, what would that
something" be? Absolutely nothing,
for as a matter of fact, the Governor
has nothing to give, and to deliberate
ly throw away our chance of voting
for South Georgia candidate and
show our unity, we would, by voting
for a North Georgian, vote for one
who, if he was elected could not give
us anything if he would be ever so
willing. The Governor has absolutely
nothing to give away to any town, city
or section, and he cannot favor one
section more than he does another for
that reason, but if we unite on Col.
Estill and give him South Georgia s
solid support, we will then be able to say
for one time in our lives that South
Georgians have gotten together, and
the moral effect of that very getting
together will have a wonderful effect
in aiding us to get something from the
North Georgia fellows when we want
it.
South Georgians have been some
what like the Democratic members in
Congress. They always split up
amongst themselves and the other EEL
lows get the pie. South Georgia al
ways splits up her vote. and North
Georgia gets the plum. This time in
the name of all that is practical in pol
itics l hope to see South Georgians re-
alize what is before them and unite on
Col Estill."
The above interview is from one of
the clearest headed politicians in the
state. He is a wise counselor in par
ty affairs and has never yet made a
mistake in politics. rising almost to the
top of the profession and is now climb
ing for the topmost branch himself
He wants to see Col. Estill win be-
cause Col. Estill is a South Georgia
candidate, and because he is the logi'
cal man. The talk the correspondent
had with him was a few days before
Mr.. Turner announced his retirement
but at the time the politician was level
! headed enough to see that the retire
! nlent of Mr.. Turner was practically
certain. hence his words as above.

l.. Patten Placed in bankruptcy

Valdosta, Ca, Nov. 29,-The Val
dosta Institute building had narrow
escape from fire late yesterday even
ing, the fire catching in the second
story from Goals left in the fireplace
at noon. The janitor was instructed
to clean out the ashes before leaving,
but he failed to do so. Late in the
afternoon smoke was seen boiling from
the room and an investigation showed
that fire had caught on the floor and
burned entirely through and was rap
idly spreading. The fire department
was called out and the flames were
quickly extinguished.
1t is learned here that the firm Of
w. F. & r. L. Patten of Midtown have

Young having been appointed as re-
ceiver by Judge Speer 1t is under
stood that the liabilities of the firm

to wholesale houses in Savannah.

Videttes are planning a mock tack

affair promises to be one of the most
unique entertainments of the season.

VIII Put Up Game Fight.
Philadelphia, Nov. 29.-The football
warriors of the West Point and An
napolis Academies arrived here to-day
for their annual contest on the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania athletic field
to- morrow. Nearly every train from
the north, south and west that came
in during the evening brought scores
of persons, who, with President Roose-
welt, will watch the cadets do battle
on the gridiron. President Roosevelt
and members of his cabinet, accom-
panied by their wives, will not arrive
until shortly before the time for the
beginning of the game, which is sched-
uled for o'clock.
the army and navy clash in football
is expected to be on Franklin field at
the kickoff. A couple of inches OF
snow covers the scene tonight, and it
is likely that the lot of the spectators
will be a bit uncomfortable, as the
snow is melting, which means damp
ground and wet seats The playing
field no ever, is in splendid condition,
the university authorities having TAX
en- the precaution of covering the
ground with salt hay before the snow
began falling. The announcement that
the President would be on hand had
the effect of making the demand for
tickets enormous. The $4,000 cards of
admission were divided between the
two academies and the university, and
distributed gratis by them The Penn
sylvania authorities alone were COM
PEELED to refuse $4,000 applicants, so
great has been the demand. Notwith-
standing all the precautions taken,
hundreds of the pasteboards found
their way into the hands of scalpers,
who are selling them tonight at fancy
prices.
The outcome of the game seems to
be a foregone conclusion, if the words
of the managers of the respective
teams are a criterion. Cadet Porter
field of the navy said:
1--WE expect to lose, but hope to die
fighting"
Cadet Mitchell of the army was
more cautious, saying:
THE team is in good shape and we
intend to win if possible"
Two special trains will arrive about
noon tomorrow from West Point
bringing the army corps, numbering
about 400 cadets and several hundred
| followers. The Annapolis cadets, 30(

VaIdosta, Ga, Nov. 29-The follow
ing statement, which will appear in
the Saturdays edition of the Times,
was sent out from Quitman this morn
ing. 1t is from the Hon. Henry G..
Turner, and gives the reasons why he
will not allow the use of his name in
the campaign for the governorship
next year:
Having been for some time urgent
~ invited to become a. candidate for
the gubernatorial nomination by so
many friends, whose good opinion I
coveted even more than public office.
] committed myself so far as to imply
that | would consider the matter. And
in August last, letters seeming made
uuate. l caused it to be stated in the
papers. in effect. that l would not
lightly. or without good cause decline
the tenders of support so generously
made.
1T is now sufficiently obvious that a
long and active campaign by other gen
tlemen for this nomination has been in
augurated, and my friends. very nat
urally. desire to know with certainty,
even at this early day, whether 1 will
be candidate.
1T is with sincere regret that | am
compelled to say that my health, which
has been poor all the summer, could
not bear the strain of an active cam
paign for so long a time and over SO
wide a field Any aggravation of my
disorder would subject me and all
those whom | am most anxious to
oblige, to notifying disappointments
on important occasions and when my
cooperation might be most desired.
feel therefore. bound to confess my
physical incompetency, and to ask my
friends to choose an ADLER and fittel
candidate for this high office.
THE dignity attaching to the chief
magstracy of the state has its attrac-
tons no doubt. but to be able to lead
corps in the coming battle for the
old dominions of the party and for the
restoration of the national constitution
10 the keeping of its old defenders
would have been an honor worthy OF
the Hottest ambition. 1 ardently hope
that l may be permitted to hear the
shouting of the captains and that
may be able then in some way to take
a hand in this inspiring strife.

commission, and those whose rank and
number I could not give without tht
appearance of vanity, ! return my
most sincere thanks

Worlds Food Crop.
New York, Nov. 29-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say:
The advent of more seasonable
weather has given the apparently only
needed stimulus to retail and holiday
demand in the North, East and por-
lions of the South. From now on re-
tail rather than wholesale demand Will
attract most attention. Colder weather
and snow would, however, benefit
Northwestern trade and industry,
though the open weather prevailing
has enabled more than ordinarily COM
pete farming preparations and extend
ed building activity. Accompanying the
Improvement in the tone of trade there
has been a broadening and deepening
in speculation in leading food staples
and, all in all, there Is rather more
cheerful feeling prevailing.
No sign of the usual seasonable
duieting down in the demand for iron
and steel is apparent, and buyers are
as eager as ever to obtain supplies.
The car shortage and the congestion
of freight in the Pttsburg district has
been accumulated by the switchmen's
strike, and the trouble there, II any
thing, is aggravated. number of
furnaces are banked and several mills
are idle for lack of supplies. In fin
ished products bars, sheets and struc-
tural material are all active and there
