The sole objection yet advanced against the measure
by Irish member is in the form of protest against
the personnel Of the Commissioners named to carry
the plan into effect and this be minor mat
ter upon which agreement should be reached with
little trouble The nature of the reception accorded
the at its first reading distinctly
friendly.
Should careful inquiry into the details of the bill
prove convincing to its benefcent operation and
thus lead to its enactment into law, happier and
more prosperous day will have dawned for the Irish
people, long and tragcay borne down under the op-
pressve land system in force. and the relations
between England and Ireland will be improved to a
degree that, until nOw has seemed impossible. The
further progress of the bill will he watched with the
profoundest interest. A page of AngloIrish his

story of Ireland will be longer that of the most
unhappy country, but of land at last coming into
its longdelayed right of contentment and prosperity.

prosperity which the city has enjoyed

GATHERED AT REIDSVILLE.
Prospective Conversational Candi-
dates Are Attending Court.

Prospective Congressional Candi-
dates Are Attending Court.
Reidsville, Ga, Oct. 6-The Superior
Court which convened here yesterday
was largely attended both yesterday
and to-day.
The presence of Hon. ]. A. Brannen
of Statesboro and Col p. w. Meldrim
of Savannah, both of whom are pros
pective candidates for congressman
from the First, has caused the political
pot to simmer. 1t is well known that
Mr. BTannen will be a candidate, but
he declines to make a public announce
ment at this time. His friends, how
ever, do not hesitate to say that he is
in it, and in it to stay. Information
gathered here from people who are in
a position to make shrewd guesses as
to how Tattnall county goes, as we'll
as from the people generally. a large
number of whom are attending court,
indicates that this will be a Brannen
county.
Hon. Alfred Harrington of SWANS
boro, who is a candidate for solicitor
of the Middle Circuit, is also attend
ing court and stirring among the
people. Mr.. j. V. Kelly, one of the
most successful members of the bar of
Tattnall county, announced his inten-
ton to-day to oppose Mr.. Harrington
for solicitor. This will no doubt re-
suit in a warm race when the cam
paign opens in earnest.
