JUDGE RICHARD RUSSELL.

Although in the coming convention
majority of the counties will cast their
votes against Judge r. B. Russell for
chief Justice of the Georgia supreme
court, it is fact well worthy of notice
that the popular vote shows how dan
gerous an opponent he was to Chief
Justice Simmons. Judge Russell DOlled
in round numbers $4,000 votes, while
Judge Simmons, the successful candi-
date. received less than $4,000.
Judge Dick Russell is one OF the
ablest of the states contingent OF

future anead of him, and The News

AT VARIANCE WITH TRUTH.

Tn their strenuous efforts to dlscreo-
1t Mr.. Bryan some newspapers 90 10
strange lengths.
For instance, few nights ago Mr.
BRYAN delivered a political speech IN
Chicago, renting the building in which
he spoke, being his own presiding Of
ficer and introducing himself to his
hearers.
The anti Bryan papers say that he
was compelled, in order to secure
building, to rent it on his own respon-
sility: that no one could be found will
ing to introduce him, and that very
few were present to listen to his
speech.
These statements are greatly at
variance with the facts in the case
which, according to the Associated
Press, are as follows: Mr.. Bryan rent
ed the hall and introduced himself IN
order that his address might not ap-
pear as being delivered under the aus
pices of any particular political faction
or candidate for president. He merely
emphasized his own independence.
Certainly there were many scores OF
prominent Chicago democrats who
would have been glad of the pleasure
of introducing him.
And as to the crowd, the non partl-
sap Associated Press also is authority
for the statement that "the place was
hacked to its utmost capacity, and a
large number of people were unable to
get through its doors"

OUR NATIONAL LUXURY.

Congress has adjourned, carrying
with it a reputation for reckless ex-
travagance which is truly appalling IN
proportions, and which has brought
down unmitigated censure upon its
head
About 100000, 600 is what this term
of the nations solOns has cost the
country. This sort of performance
cannot proceed much further without
raising a storm of indignation.
The personal vanity and Unsuitable
appetite for conspicuousness displayed
by the broncho buster now occupying
the white house is largely responsible
for this state of affairs. The wonder is
that Mr.. Roosevelt has not asked con-
gress to provide different Wallets for
polishing his shoes, brushing his
clothes, etc.
Let us hope that when congress re-
convenes it will find itself ia saner
mood.

as compared with this instructor. His
name was Shlomka, but he. like his as
sociate, was known by his habits, so
he was called Gazlen, whose colloquisl
significance was murderer.

his teeth and clenching his fists. This
exclamation was an admonishment to

Gazlen's cold gray eyes moved about

endeavoring to find the right place.
Then they came back to the boy, and
he clenched his teeth and seized the
knotty stick that lay handy for use.
You go on, little devil, or I'll drive
you like a nail into the wall-a-geti"
He burst out anew. brandishing the
stick over the boys head.
The embarrassed pupil searched In
vain for the desired spot; his eyes, I
surmised, were dancing over the page
without seeing a word before him.
Would that 1 had waited for your
last breath, Heavenly Fatheri" And
with this Gazlen gave the student q
box on his ear. The pupil, however,
did not betray a sign Of pain; his beau
tiful expressive face grew scarlet, but
q faint smile parted his well-shaped
lips.
Gaslen raised the stick and made a.
IL to strike the boy. "Ephraim. you
will proceed or I'll break this stick on
your head"
Ono OF the pupils made an effort to
point the place to the unfortunate
