ELECTION FIGURES.
THE RESULT IN THE COUNTRY AT
LARGE.
The People’s Party Ballots Number
More than a Million—Cleveland
Below a Majority.
Washington Post.
Though the results of the official
canvass of the votes of all the States
at the last election have not been an
nounced, and, indeed, though the un
official figures |tre not complete,
enough is known to form a basis for
some interesting data for politicians
in all parts of the country; and a
study of the figures, even though they
may* not be absolutely accurate, will
give some clew to the influences dom
inating the election in November.
The following tables have been pre
pared with care, and for a majority
of the States the figures are as accu
rate as it was possible to make them.
For others, notably Maine, Massa
chusetts, Mississippi, Michigan and
Nevada, the figures are estimated,
and it is likely that, while the general
result will not be affected in the
main, the official figures will increase
the total vote in the country. Full
returns of the Prohibition votes are
not at hand, though from the indica
tions in various parts of the country
it is not likely to exceed that of 1888.
Should there be no further change
the electoral college wiil stand as
follows :
For Cleveland— Alabama, 11; Arkan
sas, 8 ; Connecticut, 6: California. 8; Del
aware, 3; Florida, 4; Georgia, 13; Illinois,
24; Indiana, 15; Kentucky, 13; Louisiana,
8; Maryland, 8; Michigan, 5; Mississippi,
9; Missouri, 17; New Jersey, 10; New
York, 36; North Carolina, 11; Ohio, 1;
South Carolina, 9; Tennessee, 12; Texas,
15; Virginia, 12; West Virginia 6 ; Wis
eon-in, 12. Total 276.
For Harrison—California, 1; lowa, 13;
Maine, 6; Massachusetts, 15; Michigan,
9; Minnesota, 9; Montana, 3; Nebaska,
8: New Hampshire, 4; North Dakota, 1;
O do, 22; Oregon, 3; Pennsylvania. 32;
Rhode Island, 4; South Dakota, 4; Ver

Total, 145.
For Weaver —Colorado, 4: Idaho, 3;
Kansas, 10; Nevada, 3; North Dakota, 2;

The vote by States, according to
the explanations which have been
made, is as follows :

“ Cast <btn* Bread Upon the Waters.”
Just after the close of our late
civil war, when the few who sur
vived it had returned to their homes
to begin life over again, every one
knows that times were hard, homes
devastated, and but little provisions
to be had upon any terms.
It was under these circumstances
that two gentlemen, Elder W. B.
Carr and his neighbor living near by,
left their homes one bright spring
morning and wended their way down
to Toombsboro, a little village in the
Southern portion of Wilkinson coun
ty. They had arranged the night
previous that they would call on
Judge Frank Cannon, a merchant
doing business in that place, and per
haps he would aid them in procuring
supplies necessary to finish their
crops. On their arrival at the place
they were met by the Judge, who
asked it he could be of any service
to them. They told their story, that
they had commenced their crops and
could proceed no further without
some assistance. After bearing them
he assured them that they could get
what they wanted. They inquired
of him what kind of “showing” he
demanded. “No showing,” replied
the Judge, “except your promise to
pay me in the fall.” 1
After having some talk with Judge
Cannon they loaded their wagons
with the necessaries of life and
started for their homes.
No one will ever know the inward
mind of these gentlemen as they
journeyed on their way home that
afternoon of the long ago. No one
will ever know the gratitude they
felt for Judge Cannon.
Yesterday despondency reigned
within their homes; to-day those
homes were made bright. Who knows
but that their success in this event
may have been the stepping-stone to
their success in the future? For
these gentlemen, since that time, have
acquired enough of this world’s goods
to make them comfortable in their
declining years. >
The above instance is only an illus
tration of Judge Cannon’s many acts
of generosity.
Judge Cannon is the People’s party
candidate for Ordinary,.and is a gen
tleman of unquestionable integrity.
PEOPLE’S PARTY PAPER, ATLANTA, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 30. 1892
lie has had the honor of filling that
office once before, and was a favorite
with the people in that capacity. He
does not propose to change the posi
tion of the sun, moon and stars, nor
dig a new hole for the end of the
earth’s axis. In this case the office
seeks the man, and not the man the
office.
Judge Cannon is a gentleman whose
friends number many, has a good
word for every one he meets, and has
the pleasure to enjoy the confidence
and respect of the community in
which he lives.

Commissioner, Ga., Dec. 21, ’92.
The Murder of Dr. Gilmer.
The brutal murder of Dr. W. R.
Gilmer, formerly of Hancock county,
more recently of Warren county, brief
mention of which was made in last
week’s issue of your valuable paper,
has created more sensation than was
ever known in Hancock county. Dr.
Gilmer left his home near Sholes
Ogehe, Warren county, on Monday,
December 12, and came to Sparta to
attend the Superior Court. He left
his wife in bed sick at the time, but
she was thought to be improving.
Having some cases in court, he was
compelled to go to Sparta. His life
had been repeatedly threatened. The
cowardly assassins had no doubt laid
plans to murder him weeks ago, and
executed it before he had been in
town four hours, knowing he would
be called to town court week. He
was shot from a store door and win
dow in the back several times, Mr.
Julian West (Hancock county’s rep
resentative) first slapping him in the
face. •
The Doctor had written a circular
in defence of the People’s party,
which had an extensive circulation m
the tenth district. It completely
wiped up the Hancock bosses, and
was everywhere considered a victory.
Since then there have been bitter ani
mosities against him. He was among
the first in Hancock to champion the
People’s party cause, and there were
few who could handle him in debate.
This murder has everywhere engen
dered bitter animosities against the
town of Sparta, which will always be
felt by this generation of people, and
had it not been for the more con
servative men, God only knows what
would have been the result.
Justice.
Discordant Democracy.
Gen. J. G. Field writes from his
home, Gordonsville, Va., to the Na
tional View, of Washington, D. C.:
I do not know what Mr. Cleveland
is going to do. I doubt if he knows
himself. His party is so discordant.
The tariff and the currency, and when
and how to deal with them, are sub
jects of anxious debate with the tri
umphant Democracy. Even the ex
tra session is a bone of deep if not
of angry contention. The members
of Congress draw an annual salary.
If the Democrats have anything to
do for the relief of the people, why
not do it promptly ? The division of
the spoils need not delay the action
of Congress. There is no new ques
tion to deal with. The tariff and the
currency have been under considera
tion for years, and it is reasonable to
suppose, from the stump speeches of
Democrats, that they know all the
wrongs, and are prepared to furnish
all the remedies for the vicious Re
publican policy. Then why not let
the people have it at once.
It will not do to say you must not
change even a bad law too soon. If
this is so (but I doubt it) it does not
apply to the tariff. For if the Dem
ocrats are sincere they da ye been
serving notice at every Congressional
election for the past twenty-live years
upon the people that they would re
form the tariff as soon as they got
into power. Yet it seems they are
not ready to begin the work of re
forming. I hope our friends in Con
gress will press upon them “that now
is the accepted time.” This is our
view. I find no despondency among
our friends. We are in the saddle,
doing vidette duty now, and will be
ready for the line of battle when the
day comes. Jas. G. Field.

Letter from President Loucks.
Huron, South Dakota, Dec. 15, 1892.
Hon. C. H. Ellington, Thomson. Ga.;
I have read with great interest the re
port of that grand meeting at Thomson
to do honor to the grand hero of the
late campaign, the invincible Tom Wat
son. We do not look upon him as de
feated. Such men can be counted out —
not defeated. He stands to-day in the
eyes of the people the representative of
the Tenth Georgia district. I am glad
you are going to contest the election for
him. But why did you limit your ap
peal for funds to Georgia ? We want the
people of the Tenth district, aye of Geor
gia, to understand that Tom Watson
represents the organized industrialists of
this nation, and in this particular fight
for justice we want to be counted in. I
have therefore taken the liberty of ap
pealing to our friends in the Northwest
to contribute their mite to aid you
Yours fraternally, H. L. Loucks.

WAYSIDE GLEANINGS.
The ancients thought that silk grew on
trees.
Most papers in G-ermany are owned and
edited by Hebrews.
The total value of the property of the
Methodist church is §96,000,000.
New York has the greatest number of
newspapers—namely, 1,958; Nevada the
least—namely, 25.
In Bohemia there are 160 societies and
clubs which have for their object the ad
vancement of the cause of women.
In Sitka when an Indian wife has lost
her husband by death she goes into mourn
ing by painting the upper half of her face
a deep black.
In Germany aluminium cravats are now
on sale. They are advertised as feather
light, silver white wash goods that will
wear forever.
England imports annually about 50,000
tons of palm oil, but it is considered that
this is a very small amount compared with
what might be the case were the enormous
supplies fully or even moderately realized.
Without opening a single additional seam
there is probably enough coal in view in
New South Wales to enable 10,000,000 tons
to be put out annually for some years to
come. This amount is more than double
the present production.
Much research and investigation warrant
the assertion that man is not the only ani
mal subject to dreams. Horses neigh and
rear upon their hind feet while fast asleep;
dogs bark and growl and in many other
ways exhibit all their characteristic pas
sions.
PEN, PENCIL AND BRUSH.
Thackeray wrote most of his best work
before breakfast.
Among the most legible of the manu
scripts of modern litterateurs are those of
Zola.
Philadelphia artists are considering the
feasibility of forming an artists’ colony tn
that city corresponding to the Quartier
Latin of Paris.
Julian Hawthorne applies one of his fa
ther’s book titles to his Sag Harbor home,
which he calls “The House of the Seven
Gabblers,” in allusion to seven of his
younger editions. v
Dora Wheeler, the artist, has grown
rounded and matronly with maturity. Al
ways a tall woman, with a wonderfully fine
carriage and classic features, her figure
now is that of a young Juno.
William Morris, the poet, always dresses
in exactly the same way. He wears a
black slouch hat, black loose coat, a blue
shirt with a collar to match and nonde
script trousers. For winter he has in re
serve a thick, dark Inverness capecoat.
Frances Hodgson Burnett says that she
has made up stories ever since she can re
member and has written them ever since
she was seven years old. She picked ber
ries and sold them to obtain the postage
fox- forwarding her first printed story to
the publishers.
It is a singular fact that when the late
Lord Tennyson wrote a poem he invariably
had it put in type and locked it up for a
number of years. If at the end of the al
lotted time he still liked the verses he cor
rected them and had them published; if
not, he destroyed them.
EXPOSITION ECHOES.
The commercial travelers of the United
States will have a grand rally at the
World’s fair.
The man who has the concession for per
ambulating chairs at the Chicago fair will

notable works have been declined for want
of room.
FLOWER AND* TREE.
Put your coffee grounds on your house
plants.
Soapsuds are said to be excellent for |
niaking plants grow and blossom, on ac
count of the potash contained therein.
Chrysanthemums are now the prominent
objects of every greenhouse. The flower j

the plants are placed in the driest and cool
est place of the house and given air freely.
Water freely with liquid manure.
The “life tree” of Jamaica will continue i
to grow for months and years after it has
been dug up and its roots exposed to the
sun. Leaves severed from the limbs will
remain perfectly green for weeks. The
natives say that the tree can only be de
stroyed by fire.
To Prevent Night Cough.
When coughing at night is particularly
troublesome the thorough warming of the I
bed previous to its being occupied will i
often avert an attack. The taking of a
warm drink, preferably a glass of hot milk,
before retiring, or, better, after getting in j
bed, is equally good. The opportunity
to warm a bed is not always possible, but
it is generally very easy to procure a hot
drink of some kind, no matter where oAe
happens to be.
One of the nicest ways to warm a bed is
by ironing the lower sheet and as much of
the upper one as is thrown back when the
bed is opened. After this is done quickly
draw, up the, bed clothing and dafie. thia
* bottles of hot water or the old fashioned
warm log or bricks in between the ironed
sheets. Persons with consumption and
heart disease will secure untold comfort
and many restful nights if they always go
to warmed beds to seek* repose.—Provi
dence Journal.

The Duties of Man, addressed to Work
ingmen, by Joseph Mazzini. Reprint
ed ; 12 mo., paper, 146 _pp., 15 cents.
New York, London and Toronto. Funk
& Wagnalls Company.
With the advance of democratic thought
the name of Joseph Mazzini, the Italian
patriot and revolutionist, grows brighter
and larger. H’s was one of the strongest
and sweetest spirits that have ever blessed
our century by their presence and coun
sei. While Mazzini was an ardent pat
riot and advocate of struggling national
ities, he also believed most emphatically
in the unity of mankind, and hence he
is a moral teacher for all men. All his
writings are permeated by an unwaver
ing faith in the people and a profound
religious spirit. The most characteristic
and important of his utterances are to be
foundhn bis essay, “ The Duties of Man,”
now reprinted by the Funk and Wignails
company, and from which hundreds of
valuable quotations may be culled and
used to advantage by the writer, speaker,
student and all others interested in that
vital topic of the times, the ethics of
labor.
