CuFrnn and Sir boyle Roche,

S0FVAA uHu oOyAe xtOSASs
Sir Boyle Roche, a famous Irish char
acter Of q century ago, was proud of
his alliance with an English family Of
ancient lineage and was fond of re-
ferring to his titled father-in-law's
kindness in giving him his eldest
daughter, boast which provoked Cur
rams retort, AYE, Sir Boyle, and, de-
pend on it, if he had had an older one
he would have given her to YOU"
Whether it was this sarcasm which,
provoked Sir Boyle's hostility or that
an enmity had already been created
between Roche and Curran, it is GER
tain that the two men were perpetually
sparring at each other in the house of
commons, US the debates of the Irish
parliament testify.
Nor was the witty advocate and or
ator always successful in these en-
counters. Curran had observed one
night, somewhat magniloquently, that
he needed aid from no one and could
be "the guardian of his own honor"
whereupon Sir Boyle instantly inter
jected his sarcastic congratulations to
the honorable member on his posses
sion of q sinecurc.

company has lost hundreds of dollars

fixed, each of the companies being in
clined to put it on the other.

DROPPED NAMES FROM BOX.
which brings Opposition to Clerk
of Superior Court.

VI @OaEA-
Griffin. Ga, Sept. THE biggest po-
lticaI sensati spalding county has
known in years was sprung yesterday
when it became known that ].
A. Brooks was to oppose VIII
liam VI. Thomas. the present
incumbent. and Democratic NOM
inee for clerk of the Superior Court
of this county. Mr.. Brooks, in his an
nouncement. says that he makes the
race lat the request and solicitation of
many citizens and voters, who feel that
and reflected on by the present incum-
bent in the use of his influence with
the jury commissioners"
Last month when the jury commits
sioners revised the jury list they drop
ped many names from the list, and
their action has caused much dissatis-
faction throughout the county. 1t is
claimed that Mr.. Thomas. who was
clerk of the board, was instrumental
in having the names stricken from
the list, and the dissatisfied ones be-
gan to cast about to find a man to
oppose him in the coming election.
A committee waited upon Mr.. Brooks
several days since, asking him to make
the race. but not until yesterday aft
ernoon did he decide to do so.
Mr.. Thomas claims that he was in
no way responsible for the readication
of the names from the Jury box, and
says that Is but a pretense used by
certain persons TO put out an indie
pendent candidate. He was only clerk
of the board of jury commissioners
and was not even allowed to cast a
vote in case of a tie. This will bring
on one of the hottest political fights
Spalding county has seen in years,
and is greatly regretted by a large
majority of the Democrats. who will
do everything possible to secure the
election of the nominee

Relieved Fears of the johnson
County Executive Committee.
Wrightsville, Ga, Sept THE Dem
ocratic Executive Committee for John
son county met here yesterday for the
purpose of considering reports of dis
satisfaction with the result of the July
primary. 1t developed that all the talk
about disconnected factions and dis
satisfaction was merely rumor. No
body was present to accuse any of the
nominees of not being Democrats. The
nominees dispeled all such rumors, and
relieved the tension by a communica-
ton to the committee setting forth
fully their position satisfactorily.
We. the undersigned nominees of
the late Democratic primary, having
been called together by the Democratic
Executive Committee. and having
learned from the chairman of said
committee, that the object of said call
was to inquire of said nominees, What
are you now? beg to say, that we are
the nominees of the Democratic white
primary. and as said Democratic NOM
lnees we are making this race. All of
us went into said primary in the ut
most good faith, and if any of our OPP
pOiltiiAS Hdd ASCSiNcu d plurality Oh the
votes cast at said primary, we would
have given them our hearty support"
The committee accepted this state
ment and pledge it's hearty support.
The negro Republican Committee for
this county met yesterday to discuss
the situation from its standpoint. The
negroes are very much disgruntled It
being prevented from taking part in
the recent white Democratic primary,

thereof as possible. in the hope that
