The Hague, Dec 3.-Professor Asser,
the Dutch iurist, who has been arbitrat-
ing the claims of American sealers for
the seizure of their vessels by the Rus
sian government, about 10 years ago,

United States. lie appraises the dam
ages in the case of the American

case of the James Hamilton Lewis at
$2S, ,52S; the Kate and Anna at $l0,-

$50.
Professor Asser delivered his judg-
ment in the arbitration court in the
presence of the representatives of the
United States and OF Russia and others,
including the foreign minister of the
Netherlands, DR.. Van Lyndena. In
giving his reason for the awarl, Pro-
fessor Asser held that the schooner
White vas seized outside Russian terri
torial waters, and that the Russian con-
tention that warship OF one nation
was entitled to pursue beyond the boun-

another nation guilty of illegal action
within those waters was untenable.
The arbitrator declared that the juris-
diction Of a state could not extend be-

Is Busy Getting Official Endorsement for
New Legislation.

new Legislation.
Washington, Dec. 3.-Senator Mitch
ell has been busy throughout the past
week collecting recommendations from
the secretary of war and other officials,
touching upon needed legislation for
the coast defense of the country. As
chairman of the committee on coast
defenses, the senator proposes to advo-
cate the passage in the short session Of
such legislation as is urgently de-
manded.
In years past, the duties Of the com
mittee on coast defenses have been
cared for by the committee on military
affairs. The growing Importance oil
the coast defenses and their present
inefficient equipment has appealed to
the senator. He is particularly anx-
ious that some legislation be enacted
which will permit the complete fortif-
cation OF the mouth Of the Columbia
river, but says most of the harbors are
vet inadequately protected.

Ills A HARD WAY.

The fact that the grip Of the law has
reached Greene and sGaynor In their fan
cied safe Canadian retreat is another H.
lustration of the everlasting truth that
the way of the transgressor is hard.
These men, after fleeing the country and
forfeiting their bonds. have exhibited an
insolence and Knocked the United States
government in a manner that makes their
arrest especially gratifying.
There is q very general belief that these
men were the arch-conspirators who made
the plot TO rob the governmet in which
OberlIn NJ. Carter engaged and for partici-
patton in which he is now serving penal
sentence.
Their entire conduct and bearing since
their indictment has been disgusting to the
public It has created the impression that
they have been trying to blum and bully
their way out Of the tolls Of the law.
Their capture will have a good moral eff
feet which will be heightened immensely
IL all efforts to secure their release on
technicalities shall be defeated.
District Attorney Erwin has handled the
prosecution of this case with admirable
ability and has pursued these fugitives
from justice with a persistency and skill
that have won for him very high distinc-
ton.
He is confident that he has the game Sc
curely bagged and we have great conf
dence in his judgment on that point.

GUERRY WILLING TO
TACKLE RENDER IN DEBATE

To the Editor of The Journal:
1t seems that neither Col. Estill nor Col.
Terrell is going to accept your invitation
TO joint discussion or answer my position
and questions as submitted, and yet they
relate to subjects involved in the guber-
Material campaign and of vital interest to
the people of Georgia.
Public discussion of any character Of
any question seems rather foreign to Col.
Estill's plan of campaign; but what of Col.
Terrell? Is he still "absent?'' And has
he left with his brother, ]. r. Terrell, a
power of attorney NOT to represent him,
but only to misrepresent me?
Certainly the campaign committee and
manager have shown ample inclination
and ability for misrepresentation in news
paper contributions and circular literature
for high plane" campign.
"A long-felt want is for some one In
the family or out of it to disclose Col.
Terrell's position on the great questions
involved, and which / have submitted to
him for answer in your columns and from
time to time otherwise.
If Col Terrell is still absent" and his
brother, Mr.. ]. r. Terrell, has power to
so act, and in the colonePs name, why
not have the disclosure in this form rather
than not have It at all? The original
questions will be found in the Journal of
May LIST.
Should Mr. ]. r. Terrell see fit to so act
I ask that he also answer the following
questions since raised:
l. Did not Col. j. NJ. Terrell, while at
torney general and while as such the le-
gal adviser and representative of the state,
as to the leases and sub-leases of convict
labor, take fees as a lawyer from the
lessee as such and for services rendered
him as SUCH concerning the lease whereby
that lessee secured convict labor at or
about fifty cents in the dollar of its since
proven value?
2. Did not Col Terrell, as senator, in
1891, vote against that great measure OF
state prohibition known as our three-mile
liquor law, enacted to protect our country
churches and schools from the curses Of
the liquor traffic?
Should Mr.. Warner Hill continue to be
absent so as not to be able to accept my
challenge to Col. Terrell and him to joint
debate in Atlanta, / would accept Mr.. ].
r. Terrell as his substitute although,
perhaps, a heavier weight champion.
The public will, of course. understand
I am offering these inducements in order
10 meet my distinguished opponent him
self, and that We may meet as friends,
now freely, fully and forever forgive him
for all the personal attacks he has made
on me, and publicly and Internationally
retract all personal attacks, if any, may
have made on him. Yours truly.

A PERPLExINe TASK.

The northern division Of the Presbyte-
rian church in this country has a trouble
on hand that will take up a great part of
its general assembly, now in session in
New York.
For many years past the opinion has
been growing in that branch of the Pres
byterian church that its creed needed lib
eralization I'm some particulars.
The general church council last year or
dered the appointment Of a committee and
instructed IL to prepare "a brief state
ment of the reformed faith. expressed, as
Tar as possible. I'm untechnical terms" II
was not intended that the new statement
should be used as "a substitute for or
an alternative OF our confession of faith, -
but simply for the purpose of giving in
formation and a better understanding Of
our dOctrinal beliefs"
The idea seems TO have been that the
creed could be stated in a way that would
remove the objections OF those who con-
slider 1t too narrow. II Is said, however,
that the revision committee has taken
greater latitude than was generally ex-
pected and in its statement has treated a
wide range Of subjects. including God,
revelation. eternal purpose. the creation,
the sin Of the man. the grace OF God,
our Lord Jesus Christ, faith and repent
ance. the nfw life. the resurrection. the

THE GEORGIA. PEACH CROP,

Great injustice has been done the Geor-
gia peach interest by the grossly exagger-
ated reports that have been sent abroad
concerning the effect Of the late cold
snaps on the peach crop of this state.
The idea that the price can be advanced
by the circulation OF rumors of this sort
is a great mistake. The northern and
western markets have for years past de-
pended upon Georgia for the earliest
peaches Of the season. They never receive
from any source better peaches than
Georgia supplies, and few as good.
On the arrival in Boston, several years
ago. Of large shipment of Georgia
peaches The Herald, Of that city, publish
ed an editorial headed Real Peaches" in
which It said that the people of Boston
always looked to Georgia for the best
peaches they can possibly get.
To create the impression that Georgia
Will have few peaches to ship this season
will nave a very bad effect upon the de-
mand for that luscious fruit.
If the people of the north and west are
made to believe that there will be very
few first-class peaches obtainable in Geor-
gia this year, the commission merchants
in those sections will arrange to get their
supply of peaches from other sources.
It is true that the peach crop Of Georgia
will not be as large as II promised TO be
earlier In the season. 1t was cut off con-
siderably by late frosts. but there is the
best authority for saying that there will
be nearly, If not quite, as many Georgia
peaches for shipment this season as there
were last season, and the fruit will be of
quite as good quality. This is the opinion
of Mr.. Scott, the state entomologist,
whom we have always found to be very
conservative and reliable in his predic-
tons.
He has recently been over the main
peach regions of the state, and his esti-
mates, we are convinced will be very near
ly realized.
Georgia will have peaches to sell right
and left this season, and those who want
the best article of this kind that can ever
be had may cheer up.

Mr.. GUERRY EXPLAINS RECORD
ON LOCAL OPTION QUESTION

STILLMORE. Ga, May 16, 1sO2
To The Editor of The Journal:
On reading the article of W. ". Poole.
life long prohibitionist, of Cochran, IT oc-
ours TO me that there may be others ig-
norant Of my record on local option while
senator in 1881, and of my position on
free passes, Notwithstanding what has
been written.
When Messrs. Terrell and his manager,
Mr.. Warner Hill, made their reckless at
tack on my record as above stated l Inn
mediately replied in The Journal showing
by citations and references to senate jour
nal that instead of opposing and defeat
ing local option on that occasion 1 con-
tended for It and did my best to engraft
on the pending bill the very principle OF
local option which became the law four
years after that in 1885, and which is now
our local option law, and by way Of proof
I quoted in full the substitute / offered
for the purpose.
also showed that the bill Messrs. Ter
rell and Hill said I defeated was really
amended and passed so far as the senate
was concerned and that voted for 1t with
the other prohibitionists. and that II would
not have passed except for my vote, as II
received only q votes in all, just enough
to pass 1t.
These portions Of the senate journal
MeSSrS. Ierreu ana f1lu OIntltcu.
Since my card these gentlemen have
not insisted on their unjust charge, but
have apparently acquiesced In the truth
and correctness Of my position.
II Mr.. Poole will examine the senate
journal possibly he will be content also.
AS to my position on free railroad passes,
Mr. Poole misunderstands 1t or is trying
to make others misunderstood It.
Ny position is that the companies should
not issue passes to officials whose duties
require them to pass on the rights and IN
terests Of such companies.
So far as issuing them to employees are
concerned I regret that the companies are
not more liberal and just, for free trans
portation 1 regard as a part of a railroad

himself correctly and get TO be a real as
well as a lifelong prohibiuonist, so-called,
he will Join those who are now battling
for prohibition, and remain no longer IN
the ranks Of those who are doing all in
their power to perpetuate houorlsm and
its curses in Georgia. Yours truly,

ADRIAN. Ga, May II, 1902.

ADRIAN. Ca, May II, 1902.
To the Editor of The Journal:
1 beg leave to say to the people of Geor-
gia through the columns of your great
and widely circulated paper, that there are
now being circulated through newspapers,
campaign literature, and individuals trav-
cling all over the state (who seem to be
employed for the purpose), misrepresenta-
tions of my positions and political record,
in many instances absolutely reversing the
same. and also personal charges. not only
absolutely untrue, but without the shadow
of foundation.
It is impossible for me to deny. much
less discuss, all or any comparatively con-
siderable number of them, and find that
when l do deny and make plain the truth,
the Misrepresentation are published in
the papers and in literature and otherwise
all over the state, not only without my de-
malls but with the assumption and some
times with the statement that l have not
denied.
This is the only answer being made to
my positions and candidacy, but the same
will doubtless continue and grow worse,
and l therefore beg leave to put the peo-
pie of Georgia who love fairness on notice
as to what is going on and what to expect,
asking all other papers to publish. not so
lost TO justice and honor. as to be parties
to the gross wrongs of which complain.
Those so engaged and the travelling
slanderers of me personally, defy to do
their worst. Yours truly,
DUPONT GUERRY.

e to come. the church and the sacra-

ments.
According to the reports, the proposed
changes in the creed will make 1t COM
paratively mild. It makes distinct de-
elaration that the Presbyterian church
does not indorse any fatalistic doctrines
and the article on election is left other
wise untouched.
The old confession teaches that 'elect
infants. dying in infancy, are regenerated
and saved by Christ through the Spirit,
who worketh when and where and how
He pleaseth." The new declaration mere
~ states that the church does not hold
that non-elect infants dying in infancy are
damned.
Among the sections TO be taken up for
revision are the one about good works
done by unregenerate man, the one de-
nOuncing the pope as anti-Christ and the
one in regard to the taking of an oath.
Two new sections are added-one as to
the work of the Holy Spirit and the other
as to Christian missions. 1t is feared that
this so-called revision will please neither
party.
IT is very generally predicted that the
report of the revision committee will please
neither the extreme liberals or the ex-
IRENE conservatives.

statement upon which all elements could
agree, but as may be readily imagined,
that will be a very hard thing to do

EIEc1loN oE SENATOR'S.

Senator Vest is one of the few Demo-
cratic leaders who has spoken out against
the election of United States senators by
popular vote This reform has been urged
persistently for several years by Demo-
cratic legislatures and conventions.
The Democratic members of the senate
are almost solidly in favor Of the proposed
change, but Senator Vest always speaks
out his mind and nobody will question the
sincerity Of his expressed convictions on
any public question. He thinks that the
senate should be kept a conservative body,
as the trainers Of the constitution intend
ed that It should be, and he fears that
the attempted innovation would tend to
make il more subject to waves Of popular
passion.
In the opinion Of Senator Vest the coun-
try has more confidence in a senate elected
by a small number of select representa-
tives of the people than it would have In
one chosen by the masses Of the people
themselves. He thinks that the proposed
change would destroy the system of
checks and balances which is so useful in
our bi-cameral system of federal legisla-
ton.
49, $500
argument on this question that Senator
Hoar has presented several times. 1t is
certainly not the popular view. The pub
lie does not believe that less capable or
less honest senators would be chosen by
popular vote than we get by the present
method of electing them.
It has been demonstrated often that
seats in the senate are bought out and out
from legislatures and there is no reason to
suppose that there would be as, much
corruption in popular elections Of senators
as there is under the present system. If
the senate would only permit the states to
pass upon the proposition we have no
doubt that the constitution would be
amended so as to provide for the election
Of senator's by the people.
1t will probably be a long time before
two-thirds of the senate WIN agree to give
the states a chance to institute this re-
form.
The house has passed three times reso-
luton to submit an amendment on this
question, but the senate has either ignored
or rejected every measure Of that kind
that has come before It.
