Maaoon Comes from Panama

New York, Jan. 29.-Among the pas
sengers who arrived on board the
steamer Finance from Colon was C.
E. Magoon, governor of the Panama
canal zone. When seen at quaran-
tine he said there had not been a
case of yellow fever in Panama in
"A days. The health of the canal
zone was excellent and work on the
canal was progressing rapidly and sat
lsfactorily. He said also that he would
go at once to Washington. On board
the Finance was the body of Thomas
Mast former American consul, who
died at Guayaquil,

ina a ScuffIe

ing ScuffIe.
Albany, Ca, Jan 29.-H. L. McLen-
don, well known railroad man, was
discharged from custody almost before
the body of the negro whom he had
killed was cold.
McLendOn is assistant yardmaster
of the Central road. He had been
having trouble with Joe Lawton, a
negro section hand, in the employ of
the Coast Line, who insisted on rid
ing on train when it was being car
ried over a railroad Y across the river.
In a scuffle which McLendon finally
with the negro, the latter applied to
the white man the vilest epithet in
the English language. McLendon
struck him on the side of the head
with hammer, and fro mthe effects
of the injury the negro died
McLendon Immediately went to Of
ficer McCaskill and asked that a war
rant be issued against him, and this
was done Justice DeGraffenreid was
asked to order a commitment trial,
and witnesses were summoned, all be-
ing in the city. The case was gone
into fully, and before Lawton had been
a corpse four hours, the man who kill
ed him was free. McLendon was mar
ried Ony few weeks ago.

GEORGIA HAS LIVELY CONTEST

Col. J. III. Estill, editor of the
News, has announced
himself a candidate for Governor
of Georgia. His platform "other
than the Constitution and laws of
Georgia is an impartial enforce
ment of the laws and the treat
ment of all people and every inter
est with justice and fairness" He
seeks to create no issue for cam
paign purposes. Clark Howell and
Hoke Smith are having a "cat-
and dog fight over manufactured
issues, the latter making war on
the railroads. Col. Estill would
make a better Governor, doubtless,
than either. Heis man of ability,
sound judgment and of safe and
conservative views.
The Charleston News and Cour-
Ter in commencing Col. EstilFs
candidacy says:
"The owners of railroads are
as much entitled to the protection
and fair administration of the laws
as the owners of houses and lands
or any other sort of property. The
man who appeals to the people for
election to the highest Office in
their gift on the ground that he is
antagonistic to the industries in
which money is invested, or rather
to the money that is invested III
them, is unworthy of their sup
por t. The cheapest politician in
the land to-day is the politician
who seeks for Cfficial preferment
because he regards it as popular
to oppose the corporations, and he
lays himself under suspicion when
ever he seeks to lift himself up in
to official place by the declaration
of his antagonism to what are call
ed vested interests"
! The News and Courier adds:
eve wish much that Col. Estill
might be elected Governor OF
Georgia. He will not draw so well
probably, on the stump, but he
will draw far better in the Execu-
tive Office, and that after all should
be the determining test among the
candidates who are now running
for the office Of Governor of Geor-
gia. He is a safe, prudent, wise
man of business and he would
make an altogether conservative
and worthy Chief Magistrate fol
our sister State"
1t is probable, however, that

of r. NJ. Rose Co. against the
