SATURDAY AUGUST 18, 1888,
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL TICKET.
FOR PRESIDENT !
GEN. BENJAMIN HARRIbON,
Os Indiana.
FOR VICE-PRESIDENT :
HON. LEVI P. MORTON,.
Os New York.
Petitions are being sent ta Wash
'': ington asking the advancement on
the calendar and the immediate
. passage by the House of the Fre* d*
man’s bill recently passed by the
Senate.
The average politician is the
greatest fraud living. There love
for the dear people—ab >ut elect ion
time —is so very pathetic that it
would bring tears to the eyes of a
brass monkey.
The colored laborers of Ogeechee
have sent a < volunmioua petition to
the U. 8. Senate protesting against
the proposed reduction of duty on
rice. They state in their petition
* that they will be unable to make a
living for themselves and familes if
the duty on rice is cut.
The names of Col. W. L. Scruggs
and Hou. Jonathan Norcross is men
' tioned in connection with the gub
ernatorial candidacy of the Repub
• ’licans of this State. Judge J. S.
Bigby is also mentioned as the
probable candidate tor Attorney
* General. The committee to whom
’ the selection is entrusted will meet
on some date before the first ol
# September.
LET US HA VE PEACE.
The Wrighffaction of the Repub
lican party of the tenth Congress
ional district Held a convention at
Augusta ou Saturday last and no ni
nated J. W. Lyons E-q. for Con
gross and Prof. R R. Wright as
Elector. The Chronicle of that city
• prints the proceedings which is
about two columns in length and
beads it with the following faceti
ous head lines: “A Chapter From
the Lime Kiln Club-” The White
faction held their meeting a few
days before at Crawfordsville and
also nominated a Congressman and
Elector. We exceedingly regret to
see this continued wrangling among
our Augusta friends, and had hoped
without interfering with the in
ternal affairs of the tenth district—
that at the ;last State convention
Eeace was established among our
rethren, but it seems not, and the
cry still continues “lay on McDuff,
damned be he, who first cries bold,
enough.”
THE COLORED VOTER.
The Democratic wolf is piteously
whimpering after the coloredjvote.
Colored voters will have little diffi
culty in recalling that it was not
many years ugo when the Demo
cratic party held the colored man
as a slave and kept bis wife, or his
sister, or his daughter, or all of
them, puppets to a slave trader’s
passions and greed, and would hold
them in chains to-dav but for* the
Republican party. Now that Re
publican forceps have pulled the
fangs of the Democratic beast, and
its shears have clipped its claws, it
is amusing to watch the animal’s
eff »rt- to play patron to the colored
voter.
By the by, who made the colored
man a voter, anyhow? And, by the
by, who is it who bulldozes him and
counts him out and makes the bal
lot a farce where t.ie colored man is
in the majority? Oh, no, beloved
Democi at of the wolverine breed,
the colored man is not a fool, and i
he ha* a good memory for fangs
•nd fetters.—N. Y. Press.
CORRESPONDENCE.
Bailey Mills. August 29, 1888.
Editor Tribune: Dear Sir.—We
me aw.re that (he R-publicans of
the F ist Cony es>ion ■ 1 District pro
po»e to assemble Hl a C >i Veiition on
the 22nd day <>t August to nominate
Elector and a Congressman to wliich
we say God spejd. Let the good
work'go on. Now as to the ."tate
election, we earnestly appeal to the
voters of every ward and district in
Georgia to pay up their taxes, and
register their names aud prepare
for the conflict. We need some
body or men in ti e Georgia Leg-i
--lature that will legislate for the
good of Georgia; nut men that robs
the Negroes of their money given
by Congress fur educational purpos
es; men that says the penitentiary
system is good enough for the class
that is therein. This is what they
call ’good enough when men are
whipped to death, woik to death,
starve to death, burn to death, shot
to death and some times drowned;
also the women are imide prosti-
Utd* by the officials of the prisons,
giving unlawful births to children
that must ere long be let loose on
society to practice teaching of that
diabolical cave. Georgia has oeen
outraged last summer by her Leg
islature that, took away SBUt)U.OO
from the Atlanta University with
out authority. That same Legisla
ture refused te establish a pri.-oii of
reformation for convicts. Will the
voters olGeoigia stand & allow such
men to be elected? In .-pe .king of
cruelty in the penitentiary, I have
not ihe slightest allusion lo that
punishment perscribed by law, but
in the strongest teitns 1 condemn.'
the unlawful punishment of a con
victed i uiunn being. The 1 .si Leg
islature has shown t> at barbaritle
of the gravest kind is practiced in
Georgia's prisons. We beiieve
that ev< ry offender of the I w,
should be punished to the iu I ex
tent of the law, aud any punishment
beyond that is a crime and needs
correction. Elect humane men o
the Legislature and the r* medy will
be applied. I> the Negroes never
voted before in G<oigia, let him
come prepared and vote now, He
is needed as the balance of power
in ibis S ate. Y<«U van du a great
deal politically. L-t no one s-«y it
is tolly to vote. In this Stale there
are sixty-three counties that b is a
majority of Negro population. Ou
oi the six y-tbree counties foriy
five of them has paid a . aj.Tity ui
poll taxes. The umber of iepre-e:i
tatives from the forb five c.>uiitn
to the Legislature are sixty. 1 »
highest number ot com red iep e.-en
tatives that eVer attended sii c
-1874 were five that was iu the \c.i
1880 and!881. The next two wars
three attended, the year IKB61 K B6 only
two attend, elected from the coun
ties of Camden and ALiubish. L-i
the colored men of Georgia show
that they are interested in the we 1
fare of the government, electing
good jmen to office. Men of acii m
come to the front with determined
purpose.

Lumber City, Ga.. Aug. 17. ’BB
Mr. Edit r: Dear Sii: —I dn hope
you will excuse my coimpiciousness
in writing to your paper so often.
I now wish to ma-e mention of the
proceedings of the colored ci' Zens
of Telfair and Montgomery counties
The citizens of Telfair save one of
the dusky sons of flam’s decent
must go to the Legislature. Mont,
goinery says the same great word,
and they must also have one ot
Ham’s sons for sheriff ami tax col
lector. The colored citizens of
these two counties are hard at work
and I honestly believe the result
will be victory in the end. The
masons connected wi'h the Baptist
brethren are const meting a very
tine church with a masonic hail over
bead. The masons are getting
there with both firms stretched,
Hon, John Campbell connected
himself with the masons on the last
meeting, which was grand. The
masons of Lumber city are g< t ing
there with both eves open. I
remain respectfully yours.
