It is an encouraging sign to .see the
Democratic press and people waking up
all over the Fourth district. It mean* a
great victory in November
Out special New York theatrical letter
in this issue will be read with special inter
est. This letter will be an attractive fea
ture of the Enquikek-Sun during the
winter.
The talk about the defeat of the Demo
cratic candidate in the Fourth district
should not be countenanced. Every good
Democrat is expected to, and will do, his
duty, and our candidate wiil be elected by
a majority which wiil shut out any at
tempted contest.
Tom Wool folk proposes to imitate the
colored gallon’s bird, aud go straight to
heaven, lie says he has given his heart
to God. If the Master washes To u's
awful guilt away, then His wonderful
mercy surely pusseth all human under
standing.
There is much talk over the State about
the political situation in this Congres
sional district. The Houston Home-Jour
nal says:
“There is danger of Republican success
in the Fourth Congressional district of
Georgia, though the Democrats have a
large majority of the voters. The Repub
licans are thoroughly organized and active,
■while the Democrats seem to be apathetic
and lacking in organized effort.”
We have every confidence that the Dem
ocrats of this district wiil do their full
duty when the time comes. The Fourth
is not yet ready to endorse the McKinley
tariff and Force bill.
The address which Senator Joseph E.
Brown prepared for delivery at the State
Fair in Macon, but which, owing to the
feebleness of the Senator, was given to the
press for publication, is in many respects
a remarkable, and will be a memorable
paper. It is perhaps the last public utter
ance of one who has for thirty years filled
a conspicuous place' in the history of
Georgia, and who is now passing from the
stage of a busy and eventful life. No
doubt Senator Brown realized this, in send
ing forth his parting address, as fully as
the people of Georgia who have read it.
It was the address of a statesman, calm
and conservative in its tone and patriotic
in its character. The feature of it, how
ever, which will attract most attention
in Georgia is Dot the able review
of the history of the Government, the
reference to slavery, to secession, to the
race problem, to the Force bill, to the
tariff, nor indeed that portion of the ad
dress devoted to the farmers of Georgia.
It is rather the last topic of the address,
wherein the Senator gives, in his own lan
gunge, a sketch of his life, beginning as a
poor boy upon his father’s farm, strug
gling along from that humble station un
til, in the course of time, he held all the
offices and received all the honors within
the gift of the people of Georgia—legisla
tor, Judge, Chief Justice, Governor for
three terms, and lastly, United States Sen
ator. This sketch the Senator gave for
the benefit of the youth of Georgia, as an
example and a beacon to the poor boy,
concluding by saying:
“If the example is worth anything to
the youth of the State, my egotism will be
pardoned. The intention at least is right.
What one boy, under the circumstances
mentioned, has accomplished may be ac
complished by another, and if not to the
fullest degree, there may be many approxi
mations by boys of pluck, energy and per
severance. The way is open to every
bright boy to better his condition. May
you all determine to do so.”
The Senators life, in a worldly point of
view, has indeed been full of success, but
the quesiion must be asked in behalf of
the youth in Georgia, does it furnish the
best example among the types of great
Georgians for their honest emulation and
noble endeavor? Let the question go to
the homes of Georgians today where there
are bright boys, honest youth, ambitious
of the future, who must in the
years to come uphold ‘ the
honor of the State, defend its
past, and guide it on its way. Senator
Brown has been a success i^ business and
in polities, to a marked degree, but we
would hesitate to commend his record in
either of these great fields to the youth of
Georgia. It has nbt been so many years
ago that his name was not loved nor hon
ored in the State that has so honored
him. It was charged that when Georgia en
tered into the great struggle of the war, the
Senator was poor. During that desperate
struggle,it was charged in high places that
he was an obstructionist. When that
hapless struggle ended, and the people
of Georgia found themselves in the midst
of poverty and desolation, the Senator
came forth rich. ,But when his people
were oppressed by their enemies,
when those in power beat them witii
the lash and . a swarm ' of
vultures swooped down upon them, the
Senator deserted them to those who hated
them. When the noble young men of this
city were dragged before the Federal
satraps, the Senator appeared among their
prosecutors. When the people of Georgia
were making their heroic struggle for
home rule and political liberty, when the
grand old Democratic party saved this
great State to the people and to their chil
dren, the Senator cast his political for
tunes with those who hated us. In the
plentitude of his riches, through political
sagacity and power to control men, he
became rehabilitated and sat, and is
now, in thej highest council of the
nation a representative of this State, elec
ted by the legislative delegates of the peo
ple, but the record should not be forgot
ten. We have not intended to arraign the
Senator on his record. In his withdrawal
from public life, when the shadows creep
upon him, we have no harsh word for him,
but when his public career is held out to the
youth of Georgia as a model to build their
lives and hopes upon, we love them too
well not to bid them scan closely the pages
upon which the Senator’s record is in
scribed before committing themselves to
the path into which, and throughwhich, it
would lead them.
NEW PUBLICATIONS.
Demorest’s Fashion Magazine for No
vember has been received. The frontis
piece is a handsomely illustrated colored
scene, typical of thanksgiving. The fash
ion department is profusely illustrated and
unusually interesting, with information of
the latest winter styles, whilst the stories,
sketches and the domestic department are
specially entertaining. Demorest is an
admirable magazine and is constantly im
proving. The regular subscription price
of the magazine is 82 a year, but we have
an arrangement with the publishers
whereby we can furnish the Weekly
Enquirer-Sun and this excellent maga
zine for §2.(30.
Godey’s Lady Book for November is
specially bright and attractive. This fash
ion magazine is known throughout the
land and the enterprising publishers are
constantly adding attractive features. The
present number is a model aud its bright
well-filled pages, handsome illustrations
and newsy fashion dots commend it strong,
ly to the ladies.
“ The Upper Ten,” by W. H. Ballou,
from the press of John W. Lovell & Co.,
New York, is a very entertaining and spicy
commentary upon snobocracy which rages
to a considerable degree in various large
centers of the country. It is hand
somely gotten up and well illustrated,
refreshing in dialogue, keen and bright in
description. It will be heartily enjoyed
by those who appreciate a capital satire.
“The Upper Ten” will be sent to any ad
dress upon application to John W. Lovell
& Co. New York, for 50 cents.
Among the features of special interest
in the Arena for November, is an article
“The Future American Drama’’ by
Dion Boucicault. “Destitution in Bos
ton,” a symposium contributed by some of
the most eminent writers in the
country. The table of contents
presents a literary feast that
particularly tempting. The Arena
is published at Boston for §5 a year, and
will be furnished in combination with the
Weekly Enquirer-Sun for the same
price.
The Boston School Supply Compiny
have just issued an “Epitome of the
World’s History, Ancient, Medieval and
Modern,” with special relation to the his
tory o ' civilization and the progress of
mankind, by Edgar ^auderson, M. A.,
revised and condensed, with emendations
and_ new matter b^r John Hardiman. It
is rendered more attractive by illustra
tions and maps, and is one of the most
comprehensive works of the character we
have ever seen.
THE FOURTH DISTRICT.
One of the first eases of reduction of
wages, if not the first, caused by the Mc
Kinley *bill has occurred in Indian ipolis,
the home of our protection President.
The cappers in Pblk’s canning factory in
that city have struck against a reduction
of wages from 11 to 8 cents a hundred
cans. Polk’s reason for reducing the
wages of his employes is that the McKinley
bill has advanced the price of tin and he
cannot afford to pay the old wages. Under
the reduction the men could earn about $4
a week, which is less than the “Sl-a-day-
is-euough-for.a-workingman” dictum of
Ben Harrison. This is the way the gospel
according to McKinley will benefit the
workingman. It will enable cappers in a
canning factory to earn less than $1 a
day. Now it is in order to inquire how
much the cappers for that tariff bill will
make out of it.
A gentleman of Harris county, a life
long Democrat and a man interested in
political affairs, said to the Telegraph yes
terday that thought it extremely prob
able that Walter Johnson, the Republican
candidate, would be elected over Mr.
Moses, the Democratic candidate in the
Fourth Congressional district. He did
not mean that the Republicans have a ma
jority in the district or that they are
stronger than at the time of former elec
tions. He is simply alarmed by the apa
thy and indifference being manifested by
, the Democrats of the district. He fears
' that they will not go to the polls, and that
the quiet campaign being made by John
son, who is a man of excellent character
and personally popular, will be effective.—
Macon Telegraph.
Unfortunately at present there is some
ground for the apprehension of this Har
ris county gentleman, but we have au
abiding faith in the loyalty and devotion
of the Democrats of the “gallant Fourth,”
and believe firmly that before the day of
election the apathy which has existed will
have given place to the old time enthusi
asm, and that there will be a grand rally
to the support of the nominee. Personal
feelings and predilections must
be sunk for the good of
the party, the district and the State.
The people of the Fourth district must
arouse themselves to the importance of
the occasion and leave no effort unexerted
to secure’the triumphant success of the
Democratic nominee. Every good, true
and earnest Democrat should come out
on election day and and vote, and see that
his neighbor votes.
This district is Democratic, and its
prestige should not be lost by apathy
or indifference. We would urge our people
to rise above all petty feeling, and devote
themselves earnestly, energetically and
patriotically to the cause of Democracy.
Send to Washington a Democratic Repre
sentative from this district, backed by a
majority that can admit of no possibility
of a contest for his seat. This can be done;
it should be done; it must be done. Away
with all bickerings; get down to earnest
work, and on the 4th of November next
let the news be flashed throughout the
State that the “gallant old Fourth” is
front in the line with a rousing Demo
cratic majority for the standard bearer of
the party.
SURPRISE STORE.
The Chicago News is of the opinion that
the man who wrote thos > famous lines,
“I would not live alway, I ask not to
stay,” didn’t live unler a McKinley tariff
which makes it a reckless exu-avaganci*<o
indulge in coffins, shrouds, aud other lux
uries.
The Farmers’ Alliance Exposition opens
at Ocala, Fia., Dlbember 1st next, and
the annual session of the National
Farmers’ Alliance will meet at the same
place on December 2, 1893. Every county
in the State will be represented, and a
grand display is anticipated. The Ex
quirer-Sun acknowledges the receipt of
an invitation to attend .
The Chicago Times very apply says:
The Republican idea of tariff reform is
to pile on the taxes. The Democratic
plan is to take them off as far as possible.
If a citizen of the Republic wants to pay
unnecessary taxes he has but to vote for
Republican candidates for Congress.
A prominent citizen of Russell who
came into the office yesterday to renew his
subscription for the year, remarked that
he regarded the Enquirer-Sun as the
soundest and best paper in Georgia, and
he had read them all. Such a compliment
from an old and valued citizen of Russell,
in which the Enquirer-Sun largely cir
culates, is highiv appreciated.
The execution of Tom Woolfolk is to
take place at Perry on Wednesday next,
the 29th instant.
The two Representatives elect in Deca
tur county are f rrasrs aud Democrats.
Before the election they were pledged to
vote for Governor Gordon for Senator.
The Bainbridge Democrat states that per
sistent efforts are being made to make
them violate these pledges and vote against
Gordon. The Democrat stakes its reputa
tion upon the prediction that when the
roll is called Representatives Smith and
Mosely will stand by John B. Gordon “like
a Stonewall. And it says further, “if
Smith and Mosely shoul l change their
minds and decide to vote against Gordon,
they are just the men with manhood
enough in them to resign and go before
the people on that issue for a re-election.
Our Representatives are true and tried
Democrats and they are all right.”
The West Point Press says. “The out
look seems to be Against Hon. C. L.
Moses’ election to Congress, but if the
white people of the Fourth Congressional
district will do their duty we can bury
Walter Johnson so deep that the hand of
the political resurrection will never dig
him up.
There seems to be two fires directed at
Mr. Moses fro u the ctmp of his friends,
or those who should be his friends. Many
members of the Alliance are lukewarm
because Mr. Moses did not swallow the
sub-treasury measure without a word.
Some good Democrats—ye3 many—are
lukewarm because Mr. Moses is in the
field through the call and by the aid of
the Alliance. The prospect threatens de
feat—hence the need of the hour 4s far
every man who claims to be true to the
eau3e of Democracy to come square to the
front, buckle on his armor and go to work.
A locomotive engineer in Baltimore city
keeps a scrap book in wiiich he has in
serted more tuan a hundred “wild rides,”
“thrilling escapes” and stories in which
courageous engineers have won garlands
of immortality. He tells his friends that
these tales are all untrue, or else that they
have been spoiled in the telling. No en
gineer, he declares, ever could handle a
locomotive as these reporters say they did.
It often takes'but a very few facts to spoil
a good yarn.
The Augusta Chronicle pays this glow
ing tribute to the Georgia politician:
“The Georgia politician beats the world.
There are none shrewder—no, not in
America. From his early settlement he
was called the ‘the Southern yankee.’ He
euchred the Creek Indian out of his best
land and beat the Spanish and British off
the soil. He held his own with the gen
eral Government, and when the ‘argument
was exhausted’ offered to ‘stand by his
arms.’ He did not give way before An
drew Jackson or John Marshal, and if he
had been given time to caucus, would
have gotten even with William T. Sher
man. He proved too shrewd for Delano
and Simon Cameron after the war, and in
reconstruction days was the first to pluck
the flower from the thistle, or to ‘take the
liuen from the strawberry.’ There are
about two million of us now, mostly poli
ticians. While we have had colt shows,
and pacing meetings, and cattle exhibits,
and cotton centennials, this is the first fall
fair where the Georgia politician has had
a show at the blue ribbon. Yesterday was
a great day in the Empire State.”
The Republican proposition to pension
the widow of the late Justice Miller is
meeting with considerable opposition.
Justice Miller was on the bench a quarter
of a century or more, in the public service,
but he was liberally paid, his total salary
exceeding, for that period, $250,000. Out
of that enormous income he should have
made ample provision for his family. Be
sides, unless in extremely meritorious
cases, this country don’t want a civil pen
sion list. Indeed, after paying the mili
tary pensions, there is too little money
left, and after awhile there won’t by any
left. Then too, our high officials are well
paid, and their families should not be sad
dled upon the country. When the hum
bler official, the poor department clerk,
dies after a long service at a small salary,
if he is not kicked out in his old age, there
is no thought of a pension for him, and so
far as the government is concerned, his
body can ge to the Potters field and his
family starve.
