THE CIVIL WAR.
When and Where the First Gun Was
Fired.

Savannah. Ga, June S.-Editor
of the Morning News: VIII you
permit a line from a plain old
Johnny Reb," fresh from the grand
and inspiring emotions of the Dallas
Reunion of Confederate Veterans. and
again in the last day or two. under the
magnetic influence of Clement Clay
Evans eloquence, when we unveiled
the mementoes to McLaws and Barlow.
Your Sunday issue is always a most
creditable paper, ripe and attractive in
information, save to-day when 1 read
upon page ten CO), your insertion from
a London paper How Wars Begin
the Crimean War. the Indian Mutiny,
the Franco-Prussian War, and so on,
the so-called Civil War in America
comes in for mention, and, naturally,
reading with closer interest, l found to
my dismay, that at Fort Sumter, the
man who fired the first shot was
bound to become known to the whole
American world and was thereby a tar
get of attention, attack, pity" and
again, 1T weighed upon and over
whelmed him, and 1 believe he felt for
long time like marked and doomed
Nun, an OutcaSJ ana an accurSed one,
meeting in the end al tragic death"
Such trash as this is, is puerile and
abhorrent; il is an insult to a genera
ton fast passing away, an enigma to
our youth who yearly meet to commem-
crate the deeds of their fathers.
The formation of Confederate camps,
the life and intent of the associations
of Sons and Daughters of the Confed-
eracy, is with the purpose that history
shall truthfully write the deeds of 81
to '65 as of the highest patriotism; and
while this insertion is unfortunate and
inadvertent, still it is in direct antag-
onism to Southern sentiment. and in
my humble way, beg to send you my
protest against this gross oversight in
permitting the insertion.
With confidence 1 count upon the
proper amends, not only in justice to
the high character of your paper but
also to the wounded sensibilities of
your friend. Veteran
Note-The first gun of THE War be-
tween the States" was fired upon the
steamer Star of the West" while IL
licitly attempting to garrison Fort
Sumter" The reduction of that fort
occurred months subsequently.

THE PROHIBITION ISSUE.
A PrOhibitionist who Wants 1t Sub
mitted to the People Again.

mttte0 HeOple again.
Editor of the Morning News
I was somewhat surprised at your
editorial of June Z, entitled "One thing
settled" wherein you draw the infer
ence that because Mr.. Query was de-
feated that the people of Georgia do
not wish state prohibition.
I respectfully submit that this is not
a fair inference from the result of
the election.
First. Because a large proportion of
the people in the rural districts did
not vote owing to the fact that to reg
lister and to vote at this time meant
a loss of the better part of two days
from their crops at the busiest season
of the year.
Second. Hundreds, perhaps thous-
ands, of prohibitonist voted for Mr.
Terrell, some because they believed
him to be as good a prchibitionist as
Mr.. Query. some because they did not
think Mr.. 'Guerry's election would Sc
cure or materially aid state prohibition
and some because they knew and ad-
mired the man.
One of the plausible arguments used
by Mr.. Terrells friends, and doubt
less one by which many were misled,
was tHdl MI GueITy Is not a sincere
prohibitionist.
Third. Many voters did not feel that
, prohibition was an issue. because Mr.
Terrell had assured them that he
would do all Mr.. Query could do,
viz. approve a bill if passed by the
General Assembly.
The only way that this inference
conld be drawn from a primary would
be to let the voters have the oppor-
tunity to express their choice on the
ballots uninfiuenced by the personality
OF candidates.
This opportunity, the leaders of the
Democratic party for some reason,
seem disincli1fed TO give the voters.
was not surprised to see the Atlanta
Constitution draw the inference from
the election that the primary settled
the prohibition question, as its leading
editor had so expressed himself before
the primary.

JEsUP SHORT LINES BALLAST.
Damaging Creek Channel and Poi
sOninE All the Fish, Say People
Along the Line.

Hicks, Ga, June S.-Coal cinders
have been put on the Jesup Short Line
track, and saturated with cement, that
washed into the creeks, ruins the chan
mel and kills the fish.
The Buffalo creek here has two
prongs that are crossed by the Jesup
Short Line. Recent discoveries have
shown that the poison either from acid
in the coal or the cement has killed
the fish for five miles down the stream.
The people here are very anxious that
the authorities use some preventative
to avoid further destruction of the
fish.

riOus Charge.

in merely to wake its mother, to call
her attention to the fact. Newton was
bound over in the sum of $780, He will
he carried tomorrow to Opelika. where
he claims he can make bond. He came

DIVORCE DAY IN COURT.
UnhappiIy Welded Couples Freed
From Marital bonds.

Divorce cases were the order of the
day in the Superior Court yesterday
and a large number Of marital ties,
that had proven irksome to those they
bound together, were severed by the
verdicts of a jury and the DEGREES of
Judge Barrow.
Perhaps the most interesting of the
cases was that of Marie Krieger against
August Krieger, in which it appeared
that both wife and husband had passed
the allotted span of human life. Mrs.
Krieger asked a divorce on the ground
of her husbands cruel treatment and
it was granted.
Several other verdicts of divorce
were granted, among them in the cases
of Susie D. Rouse against Richard
Rouse, Peter Sampson against Jennie
Sampson and Richard W. Founder,
against Bessie Founder.
