COL. ]. H. EST|LL
SPOKE HERE
Last Wednesday at the
Court House to a
Good Crowd.

Col. ]. H. Estill, of Savannah, Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor, spoke at
the court house on last Monday morn
ing at IL O'Clock to several hundred
people.
The Marietta Gem City Band dis
coursed lively music for the occasion.
Hon. S. A. Anderson, ex-member of
the Georgia Legislature, introduced the
speaker in very complimentary Ian
guage.
Col. Estil is a business man. and not
a speaker, yet for one hour he enter
tanned his hearers in plain, practical,
sensible speech.
He said that he had travelled from
the Blue Ridge to Tybee, and he found
Georgia prosperous and her laws hon
estly enforced, both in State and coun-
ties. He said no matter what candi-
date promised to catch votes that a gov
ernor could not make laws, but his du-
ties were confined to enforcing those
enacted by the legislature.
He said negro disfranchisement on
the educational qualification test could
be done only by DISTINGUISHING white
men also. That the $4,000 poll tax
piled up against defaulters, and the
white primary practically eliminated
the negro, and why disturb condition
of affairs that would probably bring on
bad condition of affairs. The negro
was out, let him stay out. He was
gradually drifting away from the South
and would soon disappear, as did the
Indian. The negro could never be a
great race, because they had no great
mothers to make great men, as did the
white race, which would always main
tain supremacy.
He said Hoke Smiths "port rate"
would be discriminate and hurtful to
other towns, but helpful to Atlanta.
He said Georgia's Railroad Commits
sion were good and honest men, and
Hoke Smith, as Governor, could not
remove Brown and Hill.
- He said corporations were promotiye
OF prosperity, but trusts destructive.
He advocated good roads and more
schools.
He said he had nothing to say against
Hoke Smith or Clark Howell, but if
what Smith said about Howell was
true, Howell was not fit to be Cover
ernor; and if what Howell said about
Smith was true, Smith was not fit to
be Governor; and il what both said
anout each other was not true, then
both we're big liars and neither fit to be
Governor.
He asked the people to vote for the
best man, that would advance the best
interests Of Georgia.

BROKE UP A STRIKE
BY THREAT
To Enforce the Vagrant
Law if the Negroes
Quit Work.

The Atlanta police have just turned
q pretty trick on the buffers in the
fashionable residence section of Allan
ia. Some time ago the buffers quietly
got together and determined to strike
on or about July lst for more wages.
The matter was quietly placed in the
hands of the police, who informed the
buffers that every one of them who
quit work would be promptly arrested
for vagrancy. The result is, the buffers
strike has been called off indefinitely.

BOARDERS TURNED
AWAY FROM
Boarding Houses Almost
Weekly for want of
Comfortable Rooms.

Applications for board are coming in
from lower Georgia, Florida and Mis-
sissippi, and our boarding houses are
unable to accommodate them and
turning down their written applica-
tions. Isn't this an argument that Ma
rietta needs new hotel? ii one was
built in some nice grove, with all the
modern conveniences, it would not only
be kept full nearly all the time. but
would attract increased numbers of
visitors here, and thus prove help in
keeping the boarding houses full also.
Marietta is growing, and modern no.
tel with all the conveniences for this
class of visitors seems necessary.

nearly to the shoulder over the fore
arm, where they are loosely tied with
a succession Of ribbon bows. In lin.
gerie garments the square neck is
preferred to the round this year, and
this is always finished with a band Of
lace or embroidery.
The empire form is, Of course, very
fashionable for chemises, but, while
1t is a pretty cut, it needs to be made
Of very fine material else Its straight
form will lie in folds beneath the cor
set. Most chemises nowadays are
shaped in under the arms so as to do
away with this extra width at the
waist-line. A pretty finishing to take
the place of sleeves and shoulder parts
on garment to be worn with decol-
lette dress, consists Of ribbons which
tie on the shoulders and may be un-
tied and slipped beneath the bodice
when worn with the evening gown.
The Japanese nightgown Of quite
loose cut is decided novelty. This
has rows Of little tucks descending
from the shoulder and extending half
way down the figure. A double band
of insertion starts at the foot Of the
gown, passes by the side Of the tucks
over the right shoulder and around
the neck at the back, meeting in the
centre of the front at the waistline.
The sleeves are loose and flowing as
BELTS a garment of this nature. Few
nightdresses have collars, most OF
them being finished with straight
bands Of embroidery or lace. .
CHARMING DRESSING SACKS.
Some very jaunty little dressing
sacks of silky batiste or nainsook are
being constructed. These are entire
ly ACCORDION pleated, except for a por-
ton Of the sleeve. Lace and insertion
surround the throat, and for those OF
Empire cut, band of the same marks
the high waistline in back and In
front rises over the bust to be fastened
with ribbons. Some of these lingerie
tea jackets have broad and elaborate
collars which reach over the should
ers. sg
Another new conner Is the blouse
waistcoat Of embroidered linen, batiste
or mousseline de sole. This Is made
without sleeves and drawn in about
the waist with a tape to adjust the full
ness In front. These are designed to
be worn with lingerie suits OF which
a long or short jacket forms q part
Lingerie petticoats are Of increasing
daintiness. They are for the most part
deliberately trimmed. the top portion
being Of sheath-like cut and fitting
without bit Of fulness. They are
completed, with broad fiounces OF
tucks, embroidery and lace. Some Of
these fiounces show several frillings
Of lace or embroidery, while others
are elaborate with hand-embroidered
designs.
