The campaign for governor is on. Estill,
Terrell and Query have spoken to the
people, and more speeches are yet to come
from them. Still James M. Smith, OF
Oglethorpe, is silent, and every now and
then some of his friends make the threat
that he is considering the matter of run
ming Mr.. Smith may run and he may
not, but it is now the general opinion that
the situation is well lined up, and that
the main running will be done by the three
who have already commenced.
Strange to say, Mr.. Terrell in his speech
Saturday did not refer to any other gu
bernatorial candidate by name. He put
in some hot things about onetime rail-
road attorneys, however, and the pre-
sumption is he meant Query and Hall. as
they were at one time connected with the
Georgia Southern and Florida railroad
as general counsel.
Mr. Terrell has received many congratu-
lations for the conservatism that marked
his whole address. 1t attacked NOBODY
personally, and criticised where ne
thought criticism was necessary. The
speech was not a long one, either, and it
took only forty minutes for Mr.. Terrell
to conclude.
Mr.. Query is continuing his campaign
with that same energy with which ne be-
gun 1t. He has made as many as lUO
speeches and II may be that ne viii MAKE
as many more before the campaign is
over. He is bouncing the railroads and
the lobbyists right along. He is being asa
sisted by the Hon. Joe Hill Hall, his law
partner Mr. Hall is touring the state in
Mr. Guerry's interest. Mr.. Hall admits
that he is not a prohibitionist, as Mr..
Guerry, but says that Mr.. Guerry is the
best man in Georgia and ought
to be elected governor. A country
weekly had this the other day: Query
and Hall, candidates for governor, are
making things lively" Mr.. Guerry, how
ever, is the only candidate.
Rev. Mr.. Bryan, editor of The Tennille
News, is here today. Mr.. Bryan says
since the withdrawal of Hon. Pope Brown
from the race for governor, Hon. ]. H.
Estill, of Savannah, has been gaining
votes right along in his section Of the
state. Mr.. Bryan says Colonel Estill will
make a strong race for the position. and
that he will poll more votes in the Tenth
than Query And Mr.. Bryan is not for
Estill, either.

The car was used in Darlington. N.

HAS NO JURISDICTION.
Judge Thomas Declines to Pass on
 Levine Case.

The habeas corpus proceedings of T. B. Levine. who is under arrest in this city upon information from Birmingham ac- cusing him of stealing horse and buggy. failed yesterday before Judge w. H. Thomas of the City Court. Judge Thomas decided that he did not have jurisdiction in the matter as the case was pending before Justice of the Peace of Jefferson County.
 Levine asserts that his arrest is un- just and unwarranted. He says that he has owned for a long time the horse ard buggy with which lie came from Birmingham and for which he is under arrest fo.' stealing. He says that he only wants an opportunity to prove his in nocence.
 As the case originated in Birmingham and as the horse is alleged to have been stolen there. he must establish his inno- cence in Jefferson County before he can secure his release. Levine is still con- fined in the city prison.
