GRIGGs OF GEORGIA.

Standing out clearly defined IN the
gloom of democratic defeat in the re-
cent congressional elections is the hg'
ure and presence of the man who led
the army of democracy, and who,
though losing, has established Tor
himself an undoubted and unassaila-
BILE reputation as an indomitable, indie
fatigable fighter, nan of wonderful
capacity, capability and resource.
With every chance against success
even with prominent members of his
oRn party declaring a democratic
house undesirable, warning against
omnipowerful wealth, the man from
Georgia has put up one of the grand
est battles for political supremacy on
record, frightening the republican
party from its position of arrogant
complaceney, materially reducing its
strong voting majority, and placing
in the national house of representa-
lives a powerful, fearless minority
which will watch the stronger side with
haWk-like vigilance and force 1t to
have some regard for the opinions OF
people at present misrepresented In
the halls of congress.
Here in Dawson, the home OF Judge
Griggs, there is nothing but words OF
praise for him. His home town, coun'

Speaker Morris Compliments Mrs. MyriCk

That was pretty compliment Whlch
Speaker Morrispaid Mrs. Marie Louise
Myrick the other day when he invited
her to a seat besids him dnring the
session of the house. So far as is
known, this Is the first time that u
woman has ever been paid this COM
pliment; in this instance it was particu-
larly significant. as Mrs Myrick was
one of Speaker Morris strong oOpo-
nents, her political support being
given to Hon. Emerson George. Mrs.
Myrick's appearance at the speakers
desk was the signal for round OF
hearty applause.
A little later her tact spoiled a
practical joke which Speaker Morris
attempted to turn at her expense.
Making an excuse to go to his office,
the speaker called 1.-THE gentleman
from Morgan" to preside. Some mem
bers who saw what he was after began
TO applaud as soon as Mr.. George start
ed towards the desk. Neither he nor
Mrs. Myrick displayed any embarass
meut, but the situation was not allowed
to reach the stage Intended by the
speaker, as the moment MIR. George
reached the stand Mrs. Myrick eX-
tended her hand in cOngratulation and
then retired gracefully. Then she
was given another round of hearty APP

plimented his colleague, Judge Griggs,
for the latter's admirable management
of the campaign. The judIe accom-
plished much more for the democratic
party than many persons imagined
was possible. Considering the slender
resources at his command, democratic
success in the congressional elections
was hardly expected. but the gallant
and united fight made by the demo-
cratic party all oyer the country con-
vinces me that we are in good cond:-

more a united party, and we mean to
remain harmonious and put up man
who will prove a winner Mr.. Tate
would not name his choice, but he says
there are plenty of men in the demo
cratic ranks who will win, backed by
the full strength of the party.

THE TOP COTTON CROP.
The Farmers Say 1t will Amount to
Nothing But Talk.

Mr.. George w. Truitt writing In
the Atlanta Constitution about the top
crop says:
l see MIR. Neill has come forward
with an estimate of 11,500,000 or II, :
900, 600 bales of cotton. The people of
the south will see that be is out of line
100000 bales when the crop is gath
cred and marketed.
In 1899 he said the crop would reach
II 1000, 900 bales. Figures showed we
did not make l0,000,000 bales. We
can't give much credeuce to his esti.
mates. The farmers of the south have
marketed IS per cent of their cotton
crop and this has been sold for less
than it cost to make it. We can't make
IL, 900, 0G0 bales with drought, over
flows and the Mexican boil Weevil to
destroy.
The spinneTs and their agents tell
MS We will make more from the top
cr CD than We did from the bottom crop.
Farmers tell me that the top crop of
cotton is like the COP cropof children
il don't amount to much. Most of the
talk and writing of the top crops is
done by the spinners.

CONCERNING HAZlSS'

At Roanoke college, in Virginia,
the other day a student refused 10 be
hazed. The would-be hazers laid the
case before the faculty of the college,
and the faculty decided that hazlng
WAS a long established custom and
sbould be submitted to by the rebel
lious student. The latter declined the
invitation and left the institution.
That's enough TO make one lose pa
thence with the colleges. The idea OF
an august body of educators, at the
head OF a great institution, censurlng
q student because, forsooth, his notion
of receiving an education did not con-
sist in being hazed and possibly haV-
ing a few bones broken, one or Two
limbs dislocsted, or a moderate num-
Der of cracks in his Uranium. Hazlng
is all right where the victim takes IL
in a spirit of fun. But where a man
enters college with a serious nina LOT
application, and desires that the haz-
ing process be omitted, it seems that
auy cizilized body of students and any
civilized faculty, more especially the
latter, should leave him alone with
his studies. If the students are so
unreasonably determined to haze
someone, and the faculty so strenuous
" believes hazing a good thing, why
not be consistent and let the college
boys pile on them, good and strong?

i'm GRlGGS!

There is nothing in the election re-
turns to cause us to take back one
word of the good things we have said
of Judge Griggs as a campaign man
ager.
While it would, of course, have
been especially gratifying to have seen
a complete victory placed to the credit
of his management of the democratic
national campaign, pronounced gains
made by the party stand out brilliantly
to his credit.
The democrats entered this cam
paigu with scarcely a chance to WIN
The republican majority in the pres
ent house is a most formidable one,
and the republican leaders had great
ly strengthened themselves bv the Gre
alton of new districts under the APP
portionment made by the last con-
eress. The normal republican adyan-
tage was between sixty and seventy
seas. This has been cut to about
twenty. The difference represents the
democratic gain.
The campaign results have demon
strated more clearly than any profes-
sions or assurances could have done
that the democratic party is united
Gains all along the line stand to the
credit of the party management ID
this preliminary skirmish Otthe great
trust-tariff fight that is TO decide the
presidential contest OF two years
hence.
There is no cause for democratic
repining in the result of Tuesday :
contest, and no small amount of the
credit for this is due the able Georgian
who has led the tight for his party
Atlanta Constitution.
