NEEDLEssLY ALARMED.

The Atlanta News manifests consid-
cradle excitement over a 'rumor that
an effort will be made to have the pres
ent legislature to elect a United States
senatorinext June" Our Atlanta con-
porary even goes so far as to intimate
Ssh that an unannounced candidate
has already canvassed the present leg
islature, and that this body has com
mitted to him it's support. 1t is prob
able the Atlanta News refers to Gov
ernor Terrell, who has recently been
mentioned in connection with the sem
atorship.
There is, of course, no probability
more than that, no possibility the
existence of such thing. The law
plainly states that "a United States
senator shall be chosen by members OF
the legislature elected in the general
election next preceding the expiration
of the term of the senator holding Of
fice." The present Legislature will,
therefore, not have the naming OF
United States senator.
1t is a pity that the urbane editor of
our urban contemporary should have
his equanmity so needlessly upset.
He might derive some solace out of
the fact that it will not only be the
next legislature that will name a SEN
ator, but that that next legislature
VII, in accordance with the will of the
people of Georgia, in all probability
name Hon. Augustus o. Bacon for the
place.

A PREMISE OF DEFENSE.

AS Mr.. Dooly lin sense) tersely
puts it, "If they do run against an
honest man they'll pitch him out with
the presumption he's spy"
Has your investigation been had
yet? Never mind; it may be belated,
but it's bound to come. Investiga-
tions are the thing. They are popu-
lar. "And," walls the reformer,
they must be had"
What's the matter, anyhow? Is it
really true that graft is emblazoned
on the worlds standard? Are the
whole of US going to hell and damna-
tion at lickety-clipity pace? Or is
it,
Somehow a suggestion has intruded
itself upon US that a few folks are
honest; that once in awhile you'll find
a fellow who is doing his duty; that
occasionally man makes money fair
" and squarely; and that there's lit
tie good that the world has overlook
ed.
Now, then, we are going to make a
proposition. Let's organize ourselves
into an individual investigating COM
mittee. Let's say to ourselves: John
Smith, fellow said the other day he
didn't know about it, but he believed
you were rather dishonest. I'm going
to prove to myself that you are hon
est. :" It may be that we'll finally have
to admit the part truth Of the first fell
lows assertion. But we started out
to prove honesty, and we found scores
of things that John Smith had done
that made US feel like shaking his
hand.
The newspaper tells us in one issue
of three men misappropriating the
funds of their respective employers.
1t doesn't tell of thirty-fve million
people who have not misappropriated
any funds. This is pertinent, if dis
connected.
Before we charge that old Atlas has !
put his hand into treasure box at the
north pole let's say we haven't found
out certainly that he has; in fact, we
are inclined to believe he hasn't; and
before we start there to prove he
hasn't let's repeat good many times:
'A0ld fellow, you have been faithful;
your back must hurt you, to be sureP'

GEoRGIANs JARED WE'LL.

In handing out his committee APP
pointments to the Georgia delegation
in congress Speaker Cannon had no
surprises to spring, and he did not
have to spend much of his valuable
time consulting minority leader John
Sharp Williams about the respective
qualifications of the Georgia members.
Long service and experience has made
the present Georgia delegation one of
the strongest state combinations in the
house of representatives. In the new
deal made by Speaker Cannon the
Georgia members are better placed
than any other delegation on the mi
nority side. Hon. j. M. Griggs, our
own representative, is again assigned
to two committees which are exceed
ingly desirable from various points
of view-postoffices and post roads,
and public printing. 1t is difficult to
determine which is more desirable, as
both carry with them wide and valua-

SWING AROUND THE CIRCLE.
The GubernatoriaI Candidates Go In a
Drove, and Mount the Same stump.
L. AfnLn,,, nal r,h

The GubernatoriaI Candidates Go In a
Drove, and Mount the Same stump.
From the Macon Telegraph.
The authoritative announcement
comes from Savannah, through the ac-
ton of the Citizens Club, the dominant
political organization of Chatham
county, that Hon.J. FL. Estill will en-
ter the race for governor next month
after the advent of the New Year.
Hon. j. HI. Hall, of this city, is still
among the possibilities, and will likely
be heard from within few days. No
one seems authorized, as yet, or will
ing to speak for him; but it can be put
down that the chances are two to one
that he will make the race. The line up
within thirty days will most likely be;
Clark Howell, Hoke Smith, j. H. Es-
till, j. II. Hall, James M. Smith and
r. B. Russell.
Smith and Clark Howell in joint de-
bate in Columbus within few weeks
the campaign will undoubtedly start
off with rush. The Telegraph is not
an advocate of joint debates between
rival candidates for the nomination in
the same political party, but since we
are to have them. nevertheless. why
not let them GO all around? Mr.. Estiil
and Mr.. James M. Smith, we believe,
do not plume themselves on their
prowess in debate, but there seems to
be nothing the matter with Dick Rus
sell and Joe Hall. Messrs. Hoke Smith
and Clark Howell should not be al
lowed a monopoly of political hippo
droming. The Carolina plan OF re-
quiring all the candidates to appear
at the same time on the same platform
is a good one-if we are going to have
joint debates. What a circus it would
be ! With the portly Smiths, the
more modest figure of Clark Howell,
the massive Hall, the long keen Estill
and the lean and hungry Russell
playing for positions on the same
stand there would be a picture for a
painter, and feast for the gods! A
half dozen stands through the state
would draw all the people, and test
the carrying capacity of regular and
excursion trains. From the selfish
standpoint of the real newspaper, and
in the yernacular of the news rooma
sit would be news breeder. And
also a beeder of sores, perhaps; and
there's the rub. The newspapers
could stand it, but could the state
democracy hold up under the strain?
What is it all about, anyway? Hoke
Smith wants to put the railroads in
Straight jackets and the negroes I'M
der the ban of disqualifying fran
chise amendment to the state constitu-
ton MIR. Howell takes, so far, no
particular stand in regard to the form
er, but opposes the latter. The 9th
er brethren are yet to be heard from
incidentally, they all want to be gov
emo.
There may come time for the peo-
pie to get excited over it, but that
time has certainly not yet arrived. So
far the principal agitation has been
confined to two Atlanta newspapers.

THE CANAL.

The Savannah News says it is dis
heartening to read the senate's discus
sion of questions bearing upon the
Panama canal. What the senator's
say, continues our contemporary,
is calculated to create a doubt of
the wisdom of continuing the construc-
ton of q canal on the Panama route.
One senator wants a survey made OF
the San Bias route, and another thinks
the Nicaragua route ought to have
been chosen. Senator Teller, in the
debate on Thursday, expressed the
opinion that the canal wouldn't be the
success It's friends predicted for it,
and Senator Tillman said if more care
were not taken in the making of con-
tracts the whole business would stand
good chance of being "stuck in the
mud" No senator seemed to have
anything very encouraging to say in
respect to the canal.
It was stated before the committee
of appropriations few days ago that
although the government had 1900
men in its employ on the isthmus not a
cubic foot of earth had been removed
since the early part of last July.
another appropriation of 81, 000,0
was voted to the canal by congress on
Saturday.

TO THE U. 5. SUPREME COURT.

Attorney Cooper Has Taken Rawlings Case.
No Hanging Soon.
ATLANTA, GA, Dec. 16.-J. G. Raw
lings and his sons, Milton and Jesse,
will not be hung January 9th, and it
may be that they will never go to the
gallows, certainly not until the SUI
preme court of the United States
passes upon the case, as John r. Coop
err, counsel for the Rawlingses, tonight
secured a writ of error, which was al
lowed and signed by Chief Justice w.
Fl. Fish of the supreme court of this
state.
The writ of error appeals all the
Rawlings cases. and Leonard Raw
lings, who is now in the penitentiary
will have to be brought back to
the Lowndes county jail.
The case goes to the supreme court
of the United States on the constitu
tional point raised in the court below
by Mr.. Cooper, that all lawyers, doc
tors, ministers and railroad firemen
were excluded from the grand jury
and the petty jury by the jury COM
missioners of Lowndes county, these
professional men being among the
most upright and intelligent citizens
of Lowndes county. The exclusion OF
these citizens was contrary to the
state law of Georgia and the constitu-
ton of this state, which is denial to
the defendants of due process of law
and the equal protection of the laws
guaranteed them under the fourteenth
amendment of the constitution of the
United States. In word, it is claimed
that the jury was not selected accord
ing to the laws of the state, and the
defendants thereby were deprived of
fair and impartial trial.
Immediately upon securing the sig
nature of Chief Justice Fish to the
writ of error Mr.. Cooper wired J. G.
Rawlings and his sons and their local
attorney, O. M. Smith, of what he had
accomplished. He sent this news to
the Rawlingses as a Christmas greet
ing. Mr.. Cooper says that he is going
to fight the case to the last ditch, and
from the determined manner in which
he spoke he may go even to the Hague.

AN ABSURD ASSERTION.

Anent the heated discussion that the
appointment of Congressman Bartlett
on the interstate commerce committee
ia the place of Congressman Lamar
precipitated recently in the house of
representatives the Atlanta Journal
came forward with the statement that
leader John Sharp Williams had sig
nifed his choice of Judge Bartlett be-
cause the latter was supporting Hon.
Hoke Smith for governor of Georgia
"a sort of endorsement of Hoke
Smiths candidacy by the democratic
leader.
In reply to this assertion Mr.. Will
liams very promptly and very posi-
lively denied any such motive, and
just as positively disclaimed any in
terest in Georgia S gubernatorial race.
In common parlance, he didn't give
hang who was elected governor of
Georgia.
This assertion OF the Journal was in
thorough keeping with most of the
other claims of that paper in reference
to the gubernatorial race.

$500 A BIRD.
, Savannah News.

From The Savannah news
An Asheville, N. c., correspondent
with statistical turn of mind has
figured out that it costs George Van
derbilt, w. K. Vanderbilt, George
Gould and w. G.. Brokaw not less
than $500 for each partridge they kill
on their game preserves near that
city. But suppose it does? Do not
Asheville and vicinity get the benefit
of it? And are not the gentlemen
named able to pay the cost?
