" The Nashville American Is disgust ed In the extreme that Jeff Davis Is to . be the next Senator from Arkansas. It term his election "a disgrace to ..Arkansas," and says, "the South will ' also suffer from the discredit of hav ing; such a Senator charged up to It." Davis defeats James H. Horry, who succeeded Augustus H. Garland In the Senate In 18S5. and who has been three time re-elected. Berry Is a Confeder ate veteran who lost a leg at Corinth. He has made a respectable and use ful Senator. He Is 63 years old and nerved as Governor before his election to the Senate. The American Is of .the opinion that Mtewlsslppl will fol " low Arkansas' lead and send Varda- ... roan to the Senate. "But Vardaman la as far superior to Davis," says Tha lAmerlcan, "as Tillman is to Varda rnan. Tillman entered the Senate very tQUcb a barbarian, but he Is a man of ability and force and he has learned tmich. The Senate haw had a wonder- j fully developing and reflnlng effect Upon him. Vardaman Is erratic; of ; narrow sectional vision, a loose and intemperate talker, but a man of some commendable qualities. If he defeats 0ohn Sharp Wlllams for the Senato, a he probably will, he may develop into a yery respectable Senator. Tho Senate exerts a remarkably restrain--Jot and clvlllilng Influence on members who enter It In the wild Vtate." The paper quoted, however, la not near so optimistic about Da vis, for it nays that "it is doubtful Whether Jeff Duvls can be put through my Informing or corrective process that will sufficiently remove his gross and cultivated faults and crudities to tuaJte him a respectable Senator. It is to be hoped, however, that he will make an effort to he diyent." If the (Weight of his responsibility its a Uni ted States Senator does not work a Change upon the Hon. Jeff Davis, he la Indeed what might be termed a faard proposition. The worst feature about the Bending Of fire-eaters like the Arkansas Gov ernor to the Senate la the Idea It pro notes that tlvey are representative of tbte section, and of this The American lias the following to. uy: "It Is true that the Boutli in afflicted with political mountebank and ranting ernaf ogues who occuslonully break into high office, but it seldom elects a WOKE L P. THE, WUONGf TAflSBSK 'i1!. ' ' . , , , J ff V,-' I , Tha QeorgI , (ubernatortai v flg ht. which tor bo. manjr moons has-apparently been confined to "Atlanta, r hat apread out ovar the 5Ute and in The Macon, Telegraph of Bunday w And a doubie-leaded editorial Under the cap tion, "A Ur Nalleif-Th aforesaid untruth, which has - apparently been fastened dpwn was In the shape of a signed atatement In Tha Atlanta Jour nal to the effect that "The Telegraph is owned iand controlled y Major J F. Hanson, president of the Central of Georgia Railroad," Th Telegraph as serts in reply, th.at "Major Hanson has a right to own newspaper stock when and where ha can buy It, If he chooses to do so, hut tie does not own a single share of stock In this newspaper." This should fb' sufficient, but appar ently by way of niakingr the denial stronger the Macon paper says: ir any man has a grievance or wants to pick a quarrel with the respon siDje neaa of this newspaper-thc man who makes Its policy and directs its course can find him fourteen hours a day In or about The Telegraph office, or see his name at the head of this colsmn. If any one has a' whip to crack at his bead let him come on." Now that's the way to put It! The Atlanta papers have gone eo far In the warfare between themselves that their denunciation of each other at- ractg little attention. The Indications are, however, that the same policy cannot be pursued In connection with The Telegraph. But this Georgia campaign Isn't It a dandy? Something fine for the boasted Umpire State of the South to set before the country! souxnrFCABomA;miGiiT GOVERNOR AND SENATOR HERE It is beginning to appear as though Andrew Carnegie were In his dotage. He has interested hlmaelf in a reform ed method of spelling, and an Atlanta dispatch records his kissing two la dies there last week. Mrs. J. T. Elch berg and a woman friend were Intro duced to Mr. Cameglp at the Carnegie Library In Atlanta. The dispatch says ' 'You are bucIj a fine looking woman,1 said Mr. Carnegie with enthusiasm, 'that I am going to kiss you for all the rest here.' lie did it fair nnd square. Mrs. Elchberg's friend got hers, too. wotildn t take anything for it,' proudly said Mrs. Kichberg. 'When I congratu luted him upon his speech he Just threw his arms around tny neck anil kinsed me before I could think. Oh, he's a fine fel low.' " Then to cap the climax, the Iron master hired a special train Sunday and raced across the Stnte of Virginia In a futile effort to overtake a regular train, which he had missed on his way to Hot Springs. To say the least, the old man In getting rather gay. in The Olmcrver hag received from the John A. Lowell Bank Note Company, nt Boston, Its latest publication, an etched portrait of Oeneral Kohert E. Lee. As a work of art It la superb, and may be described as a sneaking llkenews of the great Confederate offi cer. This Idea Is In keeping with the expression of Miss Mary Custls Lee.J who said of the etching: "It Is tho most satisfactory likeness of my father that I have ever seen." The Observer very greatly prizes the portrait and takes pleasure In adding Its commen dation to tho excellence of the work of the Lowell Bank Note Company. The news from Vesuvius grows worse Sunday night's dispatches telling of the destruction of a town of 10,000 In habitants. Fortunately all the inhab itants escaped. The reported panic stricken condition of the Inhabitants Is not surprising, for there Is nothing that so terrifies humanity as th- aw ful manifestations nf nature, and no thing about which people are lens con cerned until th.y aie actually In op. eratlon. It Is announced In a dispatch from Savannah lhat this will likely be tho laat week of the Orccne and ("lnynor trial, the case going to the Jury th blef or a grafter, a boodler or law vlo-jliJ"er part of the week.

'';& Governor D. C Heyward, of floUth Carolina, was In the city for anhour or two last evening, en route from Co lumbia to Greensboro on private bus! ness. He was the guest at supper In tha Manufacturers' Club of Mr. E.'B Preston, after which he spent some time In The Observer office. It' took only a moment for the boys to quiet their;' typewriters and gather about him, for he is a most attractive gentle man, handsome, bright, full 7 of in stances, and perfectly frank. - "I have long since learned never to try to keep anything hid from a news paper man," ho laughed. "They like to loar in my ornce, and I do not stint to tell them anything. If I show con fidence in them, they never abuse It: but when I try to keen secrets they get them anyhow and then do as they please wltn them. "For instance, I got a letter once from a man in Germany. I nut it in my pocket and never mentioned it to soul. Next day a reporter came to my office and told m all about it." - wen, men, said a reporter, "we want your views about the Parker proposition a Southern candidate for President." I have no 'views'," he said. "As to South Carolina, it will have no can didate to offer." 'But I see some papers speak of you that connection," the reporter con tinued. "Yes," he - said. "But of course here's nothing in that but pleasantry: What do you think of the Parker pro position?" This parry meant an end of the top , and tho reported turned his at- ention to his personal plans in poli tics. "My term expires pretty soon," said the Governor, "and then I Intend to re tire from politic for a while anyway and turn my attention to private busi ness. Whether J shall retire perma nently or not I cannot now say, being a young man and not knowing What may turn up." He wanted to be pleasant perhaps he cannot help being pleasant but he did not want to be Interviewed. Mr. Osmond Barrlnger came In, -and the Governor at once became Interested In his family connections. He had been a schoolmate of one of iMr. Barrlnger's brothers, had had another as his guest recently, and had known his father. This put him Into reminiscences of other families, when someone ex pressed surprise ut his wide acquaint anceship, 'he said he had a reputation oh the score. "My mother came from the 'low country' of South Carolina, my father from Georgia, I was born In Columbia, educated in Pennsylvania and Virginia, married In VlrglnUa, end am an Kpls copallan. That's a great mixture to get Governor-timber from. Isn't it?" This expression was Incidental to his reputation for knowing people. Just then entered Mr. John Ross, whom tha Governor had met Jere at the Greater harlotte Club banquet. It was a Chance to test hla reputation. He rec ognized Mr. Rosa immediately, and eald. "Now, there!" to the others. "This reminds me of an occurrence In my ofnee to-day," he declared. "A good many of my friends were In there, when someone told me there was a countryman outside who want ed to see trie. 'He says he met you at a picnic several years ago,' I was told. and he heard tell that you never for get people. He wants to see If you re member him.' 'While they were bringing, him In, friend suggested, Oh, just call him Mr. Smith,' but I didn't have the face to risk It. I told him I was glad to see him again, and we talked a few minutes. But you don't know who I am.' he doubled. 'Now, It wouldn't do for me Just to nay w'lmt your name Is,' I replied. since it has been eo long. But sup pose I guesH that It's Smith.' "He laughed, well pleased, and said, J hat s right. I declare! " 'What do you think, then, of my remembering people?' I asked him. 'Do think I wan Just guessing, or that 1 knew-r "He laughed. 'You knowed,' he said," The Governor carries sunshine along with him. It Is not hard to account for his popularity, nnd, being a young man. If something does turn up In the future to draw him aRalo Into poli tics, there is no danger of his being defeated. tlovernor Heyward went out on the same train which brought Senator Tillman In. The distinguished sponsor for the rate bill was the guest of Mr. D. A. Tompkins In the Manufacturers' Club. He was here only between trains, and had nothing of Importance ti ay for publication. The Semttor had Just come from meeting with the board of trustees of flemsi.n I'ollege, he being the presi dent of the board. Among other things j about the college, he said lhat his de- ulre Is that It shall be mo organised thill cotton mill men may leuve their work for n week or a month or a year, as they may desire, nnd take Instruc tion In the textile department. There Ik much need of this sort of opportuni ty for men who cannot afford the time for i four-year course. r course everybody In the club wanted to get about lilm and hear what he had to ay. Ho was In fine fe;it her and In a mood for Jollying. ton Charlotte penple," Jie said, In connection with references to the dis pensary imitation, "being prohibition ists, drink your Jugs and kegs, instead of taking it by drinks, half-pints and pirns, as my irienas are doing In South Carolina." He had left his pitchfork In Wash ington. The only regret the reporter had was that the two South Carolinians did not overlap.
