Georgia, old Geoigia, Tom Wat

The old State is still in the col

found. Georgia is Democratic and
always will be it is just like North
Carolina,
.' The majority for the "Democrats
in Georgia at the election on Weds
nesday ranges between 30,000 aEd
50,000.
They had the great disease of fus
ion down in Georgia. They fused
eh? YeB they fused and fusion got
mopped up and cleaned up.
It will be ia order now for fusion
sympathizers to cry "fraud." The
better element of no political party
will consent for the chosen few to
make an unholy alliance by which
political honor, principles and per.
sonal opinion are to be sold, bartered
or traded upon. Humanity has not
come to that point when a few men
can bargain and deliver the honestly
held opinions of men and try to af
fect a mixture that will not mix
any more than oil and water.
It will be refreshing to hear the
explanations of the Populist mana
gers of North Carolina upon the
bad defeat of fusion in Georgia.

GEO. MILLS CONFESSES.
Iana M'imuerly'H Father Is in Jail
Charge of Murder.
Perhaps the dirtiest and most at
rocious crime known in the annals
of North Carolina courts has been
unravelled in the Superior Court of
Wake county.
The trial has been on this week
and it is too dirty for cold time to
picture and carry into homes.
Our readers will remember the
case George Mills was jailed on
the charge of seducing i
ing Miss Iana Wimbefly,
county. She wa3 a niece of his.
The unravelling of the case an
net work woven around Georj
Mills not only fastened him to
but pat each strong suspicion
Wimberly, tbe father of tbe mt
dered girl, that the judge isau?
bench warrant for Wimberly on
charge of having a band in tl
murder. r
The case went to the "grand jfi
and George Mills was called befo
that body and in being .questioned
so clcsely he. cenfessed the whole
thing, and his tale sounds straight
Tbe g'rl the poor dead girl
was no: virtuous ia life her own
brothers had taken her virture; and
:he family, without the knowledge
of Iana, held a conference to devise
plans to get rid of Iana .
One can not keep from believj
Mills tale. He is a simpleton, i
and his confession and stater
eeecj geunire.
