Some Chance VerdietS.

The verdict of 81 $50 against the New
York City Railway Company in favor
of Thomas Dickson for the killing Of
his little daughter, Lillian, shows that
there is substantial difference between
verdicts from chance and those render
ed in more formal manner.
In the previous trial the jurors flip
ped acoin, Dickson got nothing, and
the Jurors were fined $50 each by Judge
Guy. Law was once defined by q Gym
zeal member of the bar as "the last
guess Of the supreme court" Evident
ly the jurors failed to realize that the
method of chance was a judicial pre-.
rogative.
RabeIais tells of Judge Bridlegoose,
who threw dice for Judgment. Sage
Wouter van Twiller, governor of New
Amsterdam, in the suit by Wandle
Schoonhovea against Barent Blocker,
adopted a more scientific scheme. After
weighing each party's books, counting
the leaves and finding the one equal to
the other, he pronounced opinion that
the accounts we're balanced; therefore
Wandle should give Bsrent . receipt
and Barent should give Wandle re-
ceipt, and the constable should pay the
costs" Even Biblical authority may

Atlanta, March 16.-AsSociate Super
intendent ]. B. Richards, Of the Anti
Saloon League, made some startling
statements yesterday in regard to the
alleged indifference of the churches OF
Atlanta concerning prohibition and
temperance prior to the formation OF
the Anti-Saloon League; stated that
prohibition in Georgia was the result
of the Anti-Saloon League Qeaving it
to be inferred that the league was not
the outgrowth Of previous prohibition
sentiment), and denied the correctness
of Q report that the league would wage
flght on Judge Andy Calhoun.
He ct the same time admitted that
the records of oil candidates for office
would be carefully scanned; that the
men who had voted against prohibition
when they offered for Office again would
have to answer certain questions. he

A Joint Discussion.

1t has been long time since two
democrats jointly canvassed Tennessee
as candidates for governor. Even when
there were two or more candidates in
the field they usually steered clear of
each other. Under the old dynasty 1t
was generally known q year or two
ahead who would be nominated, and
there was no contest for the nomina-
ton, 80 far as the people knew. Two
years ago q candidate without permits
sion came up out of the west and chal'
lenged the governor to joint discussion.
The challenge was declined. Later,
after he was the party nominee, he
challenged the republican candidate to
discussion, but that was the last
thing on this earth the republican
nominee wanted.
Now that he is serving his first term
as governor and is naturally candi-
date for q second term he has been
challenged by his opponent to joint
discussion, or to what some, for some
inscrutable reason, call "ioint de-
bate" This is agreeable to the gov
ernor, and so We shall have q joint
campaign. When the candidates meet
each other face to face they are more
apt to discuss questions at issue with
more dignity than when they are single
canvassing and crossAring at each 9TH
er as they did in the senatorial race
two years ago, when the veracity, cour'
age and intelligence of at least one
were severely reflected on by the other.
There are no vital issues for Patter'
son and Carmack to discuss. There is
no question involving any great princi'
pie and no public question that widely
divides them. The governor, being II
office, will naturally uphold and defend
his administration. Mr.. Carmack mus
make this the issue or manufacture
one. The true issue, however, is tha'

Judge G. D. CLARK. which occurred at
Chattanooga yesterday morninins'
with extreme sorrow. For thirteen
wears he served on the bench as United
States district Judge for the Middle
and Eastern districts of Tennessee. In
that time he has won the confidence
and we may say the affection OF the bar
and Of the people as q painstaking and
just and able Judge.
The work of the district has been ex'
acting aud in his endeaqor to meet the
demands made upon his time aud
strength, he has probably shortened
the wears of his life. He has served
his country we'll in the honorable po'
sition to which he was appointed by
President Cleveland, and has made
record for himself OF which his friends,
whose names are legion, may well fee
proud.
His character for integritary wa
withouta blemish and his ability as
lawyer and q Judge attested the Judge
ment of the appointing powers in thu
selection made to fill the vacancy cause(
