Georgia politics center on John B. Gordon as a rising U S Senate favorite amid strong backing in Macon Savannah and Augusta while Joe Brown is not expected to run again. A Conestoga County farmer fights a census marshal over schemes to defraud after repeated frauds by several promoters.

The piece ends with a joking funeral notice rejected by hoodlums and a taunt about brains.
