%ever Fully Carried Out His In
IGNITION of Becoming Lawyer.
Ar Cucrry Outlines His Platform.
Atlanta, Feb. 21.-Hon. Dupont
,.,,arrv of Macon spoke to an audience
- about 500 to 600 at the Grand Opera
House here tonight, upon the issues
,rvolved in the campaign for Governor.
Mr. Query spoke about two hours,
md snent nearly half his time in crit
tossing Hon. J. M. Terrell and his
-latform. Some of his references and
-emarks were quite characteristic and
ssrcastic. Mr.. Query was introduced
% his audience by DR.. w. P. Burt,
rrasident of the Guerry Club here.
HON. Pope Brown was among those
An the audience.
ne criticised Terrell for refusing TO
erter into Joint debates. and said Mr..
Terrell objected on the ground that
tbere would be personalities injected
INTO the campaign. In spite of this
Injection he said Mr.. Terrell was the
Arst to inject personalities into it, and
he declared the inSinuation in Mr.. Ter
reus Canton speech that he had been
discharged by railroad company I'M
true.
Mr. Query took up an account of the
life of Mr.. Terrell as published in ali
The country papers some time ago. 1t
started out by saying Twenty years
ago a young man stood in corn field
blowing with a red mule" Mr.. Query
declared that if Mr.. Terrell should be
Governor because he plowed a red
mule. then he, Query, ought to be
President because when 13 years old he
had plowed two mules and horse.
The article went on to state that Mr..
Terrell stopped blowing and sat down
on the pillow to think. Referring to the
political sobriquet of Gov. Gambler, the
"one-eyed pillow boy of Pigeon Roost, .
he said Terrell ought to be called "the
two-eyed pigeon of pillow boy roost."
1t was then that Mr.. Terrell decided to
become a lawyer. Mr.. Terrell, he said,
had not fully carried out that inten-
ton. He called Terrell the candidate of
the railroads. and the liquor dealers as
ISOLATION. His only reference to Col.
Estill was in connection with a discus
sion of lobbyism. He said:
MY friend Estill says there is no
such thing as lobbyism. He's too limo
cent to be Governor"
Mr.. Guerry stated his platform in
eleven sections and discussed each
briefly. The features were state prohi-
bition, publication of state politics and
government, destruction of chronic lob
byism, opposition to giving state Off
Gals free passes, dethronement of rail-
road and liquor ring, equalization of
taxation especially as to railroads, OPP
position to the sale of the state road
subsection of the Southern Railway
Company TO the jurisdiction of the
state courts, preservation of fairness
and peace between capital and labor,
and better protection of child labor,
honesty and economy in the admins
tratiOn of the state government, and
exemption of endowments of educa-
ton institutions from taxation.

Berlin. Feb. 21.-Andrew d. White,

ing tonight at an assemblage of 800
Americans who celebrated Washing
tons birthday at the Kaiserhof by a
musical entertainment followed by a
supper and a dance, denied that Deut-
schen hotze German baiting) obtains
in the United States. Continuing, MIR.
White said:
"On the other side it has been in
sisted by more or less well meaning
persons in the United States that Il
dark cloud between the two countries
really exists, and that in the times of
which ancient history makes mention,
and especially during our Spanish war,
the German government was some
what hostile to the United States. or
in Some manner which nobody seems
to be able to give with precision, the
German government did something
which it ought not to have done, and
left undone something which 1t ought
TO have done. To this answer has been
made. if ! may be allowed here to re-
fer to it by myself. as one compe-
tent to express opinion on the
subject, with the declaration that the
conduct of the German government to-
ward us during the Spanish war was
excellent. The German government OBJ
served a strict neutrality and showed
no unfriendly spirit. From first to last
it never made any suggestions or pro-
posals that embarrassed us in the
slightest degree. In fact the conduct
of the German government was all
that we could desire it to be-"
Mr.. White said also that ut had been
shown beyond doubt that the revered
and beloved sovereign of this country
refused to take part in anything which
could be construed as interference in
the contest, and refused in such a
manner as to show that he respected
the motives and appreciated the feel
ings of the American government"

J0BBING TRADE is AMPLE.
Good Business Reported in All Lines
in Spite of Bad weather


in Spite of Bad weather.
New York, Feb. PR. G.. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade to-mor-
row will say:
Along the Atlantic coast business was
temporarily checked by the storm and
some interior points also suffered from
unfavorable weather, but consumptive
demands give no evidence of abate-
ment Prices of perishable goods ad-
vanced sharply and the whole range of
staple commodities tended upward
Jobbing trade in spring lines of wear
ing apparel is of ample proportions and
all heavy hardware and products of
iron feel the pressure in that industry.
Prospects are most encouraging as to
the labor situation. Railway earnings
thus far reported for February show a
decrease of but 3.5 per cent. from last
years figures, which is fully explained
by weather conditions. Bank exchanges
for the week at leading cities outside
New York show a gain of 1915 per cent
over last year, while the loss at New
York is but SO per cent. from the total
in 1901, which is more than accounted
for by a decreased activity in the stock
market.
Prices of pig iron have made decided
advances despite the opposition of lead
ing interests. Railway supplies and
structural material are still the most
eagerly sought of finished steel pro-
ducts.
Exporters are bidding for China, al
though holders now refuse to accept
business at the terms they offered early
in the month. Cotton added a small
fraction to its price, and ruled quiet
during the week at the highest posi-
tion of the crop year.
Stock market operations were only
of fair size and price changes small
until Thursday, when a severe break
occurred on the announcement that
the Attorney General would proceed
against the Northern Securities Com
pany Much time must now intervene
before the legal status of the concern
is decided.
Liabilities of commercial failures
thus far reported for February aggre-
gated $6,697 ISL, of which SO, 404 ,627 were
in manufacturing $685.. JAP in trading,
and $401, 112 in other commercial lines
Failures for the week number $50
in the United States, against 253 last
year. and 81 in Canada, against 80 last
year.

ties along the hammock lands of the
rivers on the lower East Coast of
Florida. and is rich in starch. This
product is rich, strong starch, though

auction here recently. At the, sale it
was stated that no bids would be re-
ceived from colored men, and no lots
should be permitted to be sold to col

were rendered Mr.. M. Davis for the
lots struck off to him, they were re-
fused unless the clause prohibiting
sales to negroes be eliminated. Other
purchasers at once refused to take their
deeds unless the clause be retained
The residents around the park are
quite indignant, and should deeds be
given without the prohibition regarding
sale to negroes, there will be trouble.
