that Ii unless some action IL taken

WARNER HILLS HOT CARD.

Atlanta May 21.-Hon. Warner Hill,
campaign manager for Hon. ]. NJ.
Terrell furnished to-day for publica-
ton what is perhaps the hottest card
that has yet appeared in the campaign
for Governor. In this card, which is
a reply to a recent one from Hon. Du-
pont Guerry, Mr.. Hill compares MIR.
Guerry's present position on certain
questions pertinent to the campaign
with his past record on them. he says
Mr.. Guerry is now crying out strongly
against lobbying, whereas ii has been
shown that the only instance on record
of party being ordered from the floor
of the House on account of a viola ton
of its rules against lobbying, was that
Of Mr.. Guerry's law partner, Mr.. Hall,

Mr.. Hill says Mr. Guerrys law firm
presents the only instance OH record
he has ever heard of where a court was
asked to allow fees for the frm having
gotten a measure through the Legis-
lature to condemn private property.
He says Mr.. Query now stands for
prohibition, whereas his record shows
four years ago he was an ardent and
open advocate of local option. Mr..
Guerry, he says, claims to be in favor
of demonstrating all large corpora lions,
yet he asserts there are several in
stances on record where Mr. Ciuerry's
firm as attorneys for the Western I'm
ion Telegraph Company, had cases
transferred from the state 10 The United
States Courts. Mr.. Hill charges Mr..
Query with Inconsistency throughout,
and with taking his present attitude for
political effect. The card is a lengthy
one, but makes interesting poll teal
reading.
