THE SITUATION.

In our opposition to the candi-
dacy of Judge Kearby for re-
election few of our citizens
seem to think that some person
atty has been injected, but this
is not the case. Our opposition
has risen after many interviews
with men III all walks of life who
have been more or less promi-
nent in local affairs for years, and
is based upon the unalterable be-
lief that he cannot win. This
conclusion has not been arrived
at hastily, nor with any personal
prejudice of the editor of this pa
per; but has been reached after a
thorough canvass of the situation
from leading men and prominent
democrats from all parts of the
county. The Courier, being a
Hickman paper, desires Hickman
men-or at least those who are
known to be friendly to Hick
man-in office, and as it is fore
gone conclusion that Mr.. Kearby
cannot win, it is opposing his
candidacy liz order that a strong
er man may be placed in the field
and the Fulton candidate defeat
ed. With two candidates from
this end of the county, neither of
whom can even make a respecta-
BILE showingin the pivotal Cayce
precinct, we do not see how any
one can anticipate success against
the one candidate from the east

present conditions prevail at the

fixed is right, and lawful; but
says he fixed it under a precedent
established by the circuit cart.
That is his argument.
Judge Kearby knew nothing of

til the week following his bing

the Courier, if attaches of
the court house are To be
believed Then he begh a
systematic search of the records
to find some rule or precedeit to
sustain his action. In his sarch
of the circuit court record he
found what he wanted, and
paraded them before the pbple
as the basis of such action.
The reason that Judge KERRY
treated our first editorial with
silent contempt" was because
he knew of no defense to mike.
He cOndescends to "reply" tothe
second because he has sect "A
wonderful light in the .cir
cult court records. Nowhere in
his article does he claim that his
act was warranted by either the
constitution or the statutes. He
does say there is nothing in the
constitution against a judge or
Judges to being lenient." HE
evidently means that there is
nothing ia the cOnst tuition
which prevents a Judge from be-
ing lenient). That statement de-
stroys the whole fabric of his
argument, and he tacitly admits
that he was lenient. This is all
we have claimed. Why did
Judge Kearby show leniency--
and so much of ito a
elimination the law compels
him to suppose that man charg-
ed with crime is guilty-whom
the people know was not entitled
to it? That is the question, and il
remains as much unanswered now
as before the judge writ the
piece for the paper"
Speaking of the constitution,
there is a clause which says "suf,

made an effort last week to
reply to the Courier. His article
is about the worst tumble, from
an argumentative standpoint that
we have ever seen In public print

unknown. His basis of argu-
ment is, however, that be-
cause some circuit judge, way
back yonder somewhere, fixed a
mans bond at figure below the
minimum amount of the penalty,
he could do the same thing; that
because this circuit judge did it,
he did it.

ANNOUNCEMENTS.

We are authorized 10 announce the
candidacy OF Chester I. Rondurant for

the present situation, knowing
the votes of the last named pre-
cincts will be divided between
two Hickman men. where does
Hickman expect to get the sup
port that will elect either of her
candidates.
Some of our people favor ig.
noring the primary, and putting
out an independent candidate
against the nominee in the regu-
lar election, but this is believed
TO be poor plan and not COM
mensurate to our needs. Many
would be drawn into the primary,
and, having participated, would
be in honor bound to support the
nominee thereof. By this means
numberless votes would be lost to
the Hickman candidate, who,
were.they to consult their own
wishes, would prefer to vote for
some other candidate, but having
taken part in the primary, could
not, in Justice to their conscienCes
do as their hearts dictated. True,
an independent candidate has
overwhelmingly defeated the re-
eular democratic nominee in this
county for another office, but
under far different conditions,
and we do not see that that race
can consistently be cited as a
criterion with which to measure
the present one. 1t is the belief
of many of the most prominent
men in local politics that bet
ter plan is for Hickman and her
friends In the county to get to
gether, put out a candidate, sup
port him to a man, and nominate
him in the primary. This would
seem the wiser course, and it can
be successfully carried out by
concerted action.
In the interest of Hickman
and the western portion of Full
ton county, there can hardly be
a man who would not, or should
not, sacrifice his personal ambi-
tons. 1t is not a small thing to
do, especially when the aspirant
has hopes of success; but he will
be honored far more by his peo-
pie for aiding his town to win,
than for running useless race
and being defeated at the polls.
thus losing everything. Some
have exalted ideas of
whefA they have bcen once Or
twice honored by the votes of
the people, and seem to consider
the offices to which they have
been elected as their personal
property. With these such a
thing as sacrifice for the good
of the party is unknown, and
cannot be expected, but If they
are conscious of the true relation
ship they bear to the people, by
whose suffrage they hold office
and draw pay, they will not hes
itate to step to one side. In
truth, it is a duty they owe the
people.
The situation is one that re
quIres unamInlty or action on
the part of Hickman and her
friends if she would have county
officers who are friendly disposed
toward her. Without it she can
expect nothing but defeat, and a
court house full of Fultonite:
whose future actions can consis
tently be foretold by their past
Without concert of action the
result is inevitable.
This explains the situation as
near as we can ascertain. 1t car

end of the county. 1t has the

needed is concerted action. vii

the Hon. d. r. Dugdale stepped
from the sleeping car At the depot.
he lost no time in getting next to
his new team. The team had been
playing In all sorts Of hard luck.
and had done some very spiritless
playing. but yesterday the players
were reused into action by Just
looking at the neatly dug out feat
urea OF the new manager as he sat
on the bench watching the game.
The result was that az the end the
score stood to in favor OF Port
land and against San Francisco.
All during the game a pat on the
pack. a good word 10 this aud that
player now and then was the rule.
Dug had the Portland tossers feel
ing so good that they could do
nothing but win. The Portland boys
never have played such baseball as
they did yesterday. Francis at short
showed the fans that he knew some
thing about the game. and last
night Dug could have said with rea-
