ROO£EVELT CLL'B HERE Number of Democrats Forming One. Declare They Want to Vole for Him fur I’rpsitleni in 1 non. A number of young men in Augusta who are Democrats —who have been voting with the Democratic p«rty for vests —-have sign ill il their Intention to organize themselves into a Roose velt club and to vote for the Rough Rider for president should the New York governor secure the Republican lor other presidential nomination. "Wo are for Roosevelt,” said one of 'the gentlemen,concerned, ’’because we admire the man—because he went to the front and fought like a patriot for his flag and for his country. We ad mire bis bravery, his devotion and his ability. . "We rertainly expect to see his name before the Republican nominat ing convention and we believe that he will be nominated. W< would like to cast our votes for him. We will, when the time comes, form the formal organization and tell him or our sym pathy and support. "With Roosevelt at the helm —with men like him steering the nation—we do not apprehend that there would be any mo:e danger to the grand old «hip of state than were a Democrat in charge. What is true of us is true of young white men all over the south. We are not Republicans or Populists. We are Rooseveltites.” It may be stated in this connection that there was any amount of betting in Augusta on the New York election. At first it was even money on Roose velt but a little later the odds ware in his favor. There ware a number of nets made, tint the sums were not large. Col. Roosevelt has a great many friend* *nd admirers among the Democrats oft this good old Democrat ic town.

It made a powerful report and we distinctly fell the earth ehakr. We marched all the night, the next day. Monday, and Monday night, also Tues day and the bent part of Tuesday night, only catching a little ten or flf leen minute nap when halted to rest. ’Ve continued to march under the strain, and about 11 o'clock Tuesday •we were halted In an old Held and ! given a slice of nice lean ham. perhaps one-fourth of a pound. This was th*’ drat mouthful of anyth'ng to eat we had drawn or had lo 'ey wee Saturday, the first of April. I belonged to General C. A. Evens’ sharpshooters, end the protrr ian of the rear of the array still devolved upon us. Hot Times, Sure. On Thursday the enemy moved upon us in heavy foiee and kept us hotly I engaged nearly the entire day firing 1 and falling hac k. On the evening of Thunder, the Gib. the enemy pressed ua so closely as to capture a poition of our wagon train, hot fat from what Is called the High Bridge, which Is not far rem Farmvilte. I lost my hat by a gush of wind, anil would have been bareheaded only for one of my comrades presenting me wi;h a Con federate cap. By daylight Friday, the 7th of April, we were In motion and we were deployed Just north of Farm vllle. Our little battalion was now reduced to a mere handful, I would say about forty. One other man and my self were all who represented the Twenty-sixth Georgia in that line that morning. But, as good luck would have it, the enemy did not attack ns from the rear that morning, but flunked in and cut into the Fitzhugh I I-ee cavalry, and he did them up in | good shape. But eve had to abandon a large number of our wagons. I should have said we drew another small ration on Wednesday. On Sat urday, the Bth, the way appeared to bt> clear and we marched all day unmo lested on our part of the Hue of march. That evening, just about cue-half hour before sunset, wc were turned Into a skirt of woods just upon the side of the read, and I suppose about two or , two end a half miles fiem Appomattox j Court House. We received orders to , prepare two days’ rations end be ready to move at daylight the next morning. Bui no rations came, and of course never did. Just altar dark we heard the booming of cannon very near us i and right in our front, We began to j fix our little effects for more trouble, jWe won bad orders to full in and I hmM*% Mr# §m MM#ti MM# «M» <NMM# ’ *m4 m* m*m M* **i Mm I - ’ MM A Ml# 1 #r#rt> > *##*# tun t, Mi# 1 (MMUffnMifnrTH Ml Mlii# <M» MM* iMI ft* ff*4M Ml t**4 #Hp I I MM# Ml j «*Ml#HMit MUM MM'*#Ml t if # M *Mm#M* Mfl# MM# 1 | t |u | fan %### Ml M* # ‘ 'lt * !

Th* third hesitated I raised my empty gun nod said to , him: "Throw duwn that gun. or I’ll ( blow a bole through you.’’ He dropped it and I ordered tlu-m to march and wr marched acroaa the field In the direr tlcn of the court house. When we lied gene norac . unflr’d c»r j p-rhap* l»vo hundred yard* I remarked | thrl I would load my gun. All three of the Yankee* mopped and said to roe “If you have »n empty gun w > will go hack.” By thla lime our artillery was shelling ue furiously. I began to wave ray old cap to surrprder to our battery. I 1 looked bark towards the woods In my rear and U was black w-lth \nn ke-s, and they were In pursuit and op'ned fire on ua, so I said to ray pris oners: "The best way out of this is for you to go wit,h me." So they .ol- j lowed me tc the branch below the . court house nnd we took a receipt for j , hem. While waiting for the receipt for the prisoners a soldier came along crying «nl I asked him what he ivas crying about? and he said General L. i* had surrendered the Confederate states. I called Captain Ktrgler and tc|,l him whet the man said, and I said to him: “Captain, you had better put that man under arrest, ns he Is likely to demoralize the men with such reports.” Captain Kirgler turned to him and said through his nose: i i “You had Letter get away from here, | or I’ll put you under aireat.” We then moved west across a piece of old field rear some woods, when another fellow came along crying and leading lilh horse. I asked him what was the mat ter with him. His reply was that Gen era! l.ee nnd surrendered. We then looked over towards the conn house and sow ot't men falling back In line or battle. We then felt the story of the two men was only too true. Wc were then marched into the woods I have already mentioned aad stacked our arms. Wc have heard and heard of how kind Genera! Grant was to issue us three days’ rations while we were in what we called the bull pan. He did give us three common hard tack, and only three did we get per day from Sunday morning, the flth, till Wednesday morning, the 12th, making nine in all. We were formed In line and received our payroll and were then marched upon top the hill I :in or near the front of the court | house, bsited in front of * long line of Yankees, ordered to the front where we stacked our anna, and we then turned our faces homeward. And thus ended jus; a ittls over one week of whet I would call hard times, no eac.- ing, no sleeping, hut lighting »u(l marching like thunder, clay and night.

JUDGES OF CITY COURTS Peculiar Local Interest in Proposed I .aw. We Would Vote for Two officers In One. Thor* i* peculiar local ifitcroat In ihr bill. Introdncrd liy Naabitt of th*- Thirty-fifth, now brfore thr ernate judlc'ary committer, to make ihe offices of couniy Judges and aolicltora elected by the p*«>plc The Neahltt bill 1* a general bill ami ft passed, would wipe out th* special hills under which ao many city and county courts were organlied. The genera! bill would supercede the spe cial law under which th* city court of Richmond county operate*. That which is particularly Intereat ing in Richmond Is the fact that the judge of the city court la, by virtue of his office, commissioner or roads and revenue for the county. The ques tlou has arisen whether or not. should the Nesbitt bill become a law, there would be divorce between the offices and Judge for the purpose of election. The hes: opinion. It seems, holds that they would not be. dlvo.ced, l-et-aime of th? Nesbitt law. but that. If election was had, the successful candidate for the city court bench would also he commission*r of roads and revenue Senator Nesbitt thinks his hill is in line with Democratic doctrine and ex presses the confidence that it will go through the legislature. His position is that the legislature Ib committed to elections of Judiciary by the people, In that it so legislated in regard to the superior court judges-r-and If the reform held good as to the superior court judges and solicitors, it holds good as to the other court officers. the lltli. with another comrade, made on- way through the Yankee lines and went to the place where we had lost the five men of our sharpshooters, one of them being a lieutenant. We found live graves Ip the old garden whera some of our little hand had been en gaged In the fight. I took a board and mode me a wooden spade and opened all five of the graves to examine the bodies, hut all were Yankees, and I have never heard of the lost five. You now see, my young soldier, what some older soldiers endured and would call hard times, marching day and night, fighting nearly all the time, with no sleep and only nine meals of short rations -n twelve days. Now, my young comrade, do you think 1 have exagger ated? Ask some other old soldier, or Gen. Gordon or Gen. Evans. 0. F. AGEE, Co. F., 26th Ga. Rest.
