In Honor of Irish Brigade"

The Sixty-ninth regiment, New York,
part OF the famous Irish Brigade" en-
listed for three months, but in that
Blackburn's Ford and Bull Run. Many
members of the 69th were captured in
the latter bloody fight, the colonel be-
ing one of the number. The regiment
returned from the front In August, and
a few days after II was mustered out
OF the service an order was issued by
the war department for the r~eorganiza-
lion of an Irish brigade. Under this
call eight hundred members Of the 69th
enlisted for three years In the seth
regiment New York volunteers. and
went to the front under command of
Colonel Robert Nugent, with James
Kelley as lieutenant colonel and James
Cavanagb as major. The other New
York regiments in the brigade were the
63d and SSth. The 2Sth Massachusetts,
and the 10th Pennsylvania were added
to the Irish brigade, with two batteries,
commanded by Captains Hogan and
Mcmahon.
Internal troubles disrupted the regi-

efforts Of many prominent Irishmen,
who were proud OF the record made by
the 69th in the civil war, to save IL the
command was reduced to q battalion OF
five companies. But even the battalion
was not a united body. II was so torn
by petty fights that its d~isbandment
was discussed In the highest military
circles OF the state. But the friends
OF the old guard came to its rescue.
new companies were organized, and
Lieutenant Colonel George Moore
Smith of the 18th regiment was placed
in temporary command. This was an
innovation against which some Of the
members protested. Only Irlshmen had
commanded the regiment before. they
said, and the advent OF an American as
commander of an Irish organization
could do only harm. But the results
showed that the evil prophecies were
false. The companies were strength
sned by good recruits, the staff was
improved by the addition OF competent
officers. and the p~ainstaking provision

the recognized regiment. Colonel
Smith remained in command until he

great public receptions. The idea was
suggested by reason Of the fact that
Chicago has no such building. public

city on a metropolitan basis. IT is
believed that the effect of such a struc-
ture will go beyond the mere ease of
the club members, and will materially
benefit the entire city.

above the sidewalk. and the ground
floor is devoted to Offices, leaving the
entire first floor above for l%ounging-

Woman Enters Politics

Hester MCGEE Smith, the first wo-
man candidate for Illinois state super
intendent OF instruction, is a native
OF Pulaski county, in which she has
served efficiently in the capacity OF
school superintendent. For five con-
secutive terms she has directed the
schools of the county with the best
results, and her friends belieTe she
would make an excellent state officer.
Mrs. Smiths father, Judge Hugh Nc
Gee. was one OF the earliest pioneers
OF southern Illinois and became one
OF the foremost citizens OF Egypt"
He served his country in the civil wal
and two II his SOM died on the bat
tlefield. Mrs, Smith was educated at
the old Southern Illinois College at
~Carbondale, and on leaving that insti-
tuition entered the profession of teach
ing. Her husband, Lewis Smith. a law
yer Of Pulaski, died in 1870, and the
widow soon afterward resumed the
profession in which she has been so
brilliantly successful.

ing the reports that are being circu-
lated from the Atlanta headquarters
of Messrs. Terrell and Query respect
lively, there are some in this neck of
the woods who are inclined to doubt
that both the gentlemen referred to
have got the gubernatorial nominal ton
already cinched.
While the politicians may count upon
delivering the nomination to Terrell,
as seems to have been prearranged,
this seems to be one year when the
voters are not needing the politicians.
and it seems from present indications
that they are going to be unable to de-
liver the goods on next Thursday.
A person who has been in a good

few weeks, and who has heard the

every standpoint, speaking to your
correspondent, sums the situation
thusly:

Estill will pretty evenly divide up the

politicians uneasiness. They do not

His style of campaign has been pitched
upon a different plane, and he has con-
Quoted it in such a clean manner as
to win for himself the good will and
esteem of every one. He is strong
with the old soldiers. His views upon
the pension question are winning him

business managed by a business man.
The silent vote is a big one, and it is
this that will possibly elect Governor
next Thursday.
I'm Atlanta ii is argued that it is
useless to antagonize the machine.
This is one campaign in which the
machine seems to have been set in mo-
ton so long ago that it has about run
down before the election. South Geor-
gia is standing by her candidate and
will go almost solidly for him. With
a good sprinkling of counties from
other sections of the state. he stands
a much better chance of going in on
the first ballot than either of the other
two candidates. Should he not do so,
his election is practically a certainty
should a deadlock result"

Triton, Ga. June 2.-Everything is
warming up for the primary Thursday

for county offices will be made. The
race for representative, between ]. P.
Knight, the present representative, and
NJ. S. Patten, will be exceedingly
close, while that between w. l.. Swim
die and w. j. knight is considered
equally as interesting. The race be-
tween Denmark and Mitchell, for the
judgeship of this circuit will be close
ly contested; and in fact the result of
none of the above mentioned races can
be foretold, until the ballots have been
counted.
For Governor there are but few Ter
rell men in this district. and he has
not the ghost of showing to carry Ber-
rien county. The race is highly on be-
tween Estill and Query, with the
chances favoring Estill. The Estill
clubs throughout the county claim the
county by from two to three hundred
majority. provided there is no change
from the information that we gather
to-day, and EstilIs friends shall watch
every move that is made, and do their
utmost to place Berrien in the list of
Estill counties

BARBECUE AT DOUGLAS.
Alleged There Is "A Political Trick
Concealed in 1t.

Pearson, Ga, June Editor Morn
ing News: The friends of would-be
Gov. Terrell and would-be Senator
Sweat are advertising a free, nom
partisan, non-political barbecue at
Douglas for June 5, the day of the
primary election.
The law requires voters living in
districts embracing an Incorporated
town to vote in their own districts or
precincts, but in districts embracing
no incorporated town they can vote at
the county site. 1t is palpable there
fore, this free layout is for the purpose
of corraling the unsuspecting voters to
Douglas to either lose their votes or
fall into the hands of the manipula-
tors Thus these friends of Terrell and
Sweat hope to capture the county (Cof-
fee) for their favorites.
Let the friends of Private Estill be
on the qui vive, and be sure to cast
their ballot in their own district be-
fore going to the free, non-partisan,
non-political barbecue at Douglas. IT
is a trick, friends; don't be deceived

Reidsville, Ca, June Col. J. H.
Estin spoke to-day to one of the larg-
est audience of Tattnall county citi-
zens seen in Reidsville in many years.
The audience was enthusiastic and if
the opinions of leading citizens and
the good words of the people generally
count for anything he will carry the
county Overwhelmingly.
Both the other candidates have
spoken here, but neither created the
impression which Col. Estill created
to-day. His speech was manly and di-
rect, and showed that he was the logi-
cal candidate for Governor.
The City Court is in session and dur
ing the noon hour Col. Findley of
Gainesville spoke in Col Estills be-
half He is a happy speaker and won
the people at once. He reviewed the
situation in North Georgia. and when
he told the people that eighteen or
twenty counties in his neck of the
woods would go for Estill without a
struggle his audience was fairly cleo
trified. Col. Findley said that in his
judicial circuit nine of the eleven news
papers were supporting Estill, and they
are influential papers, too.
North Georgia and the Wiregrass
section" said he always stand to-
gether, but heretofore North Georgia
has got all the plums. This time, how
ever, we are going to give you South
Georgia people the governor. Do you
want him? Stand up with us, then,
and there will be no trouble in the
world in giving to the state the best
governor she has had in years, and he
will be a South Georgian"
Col Findley won many friends here,
and he was pleased with the manner
in which the audience received both
Col. Estill and himself.
