A GALA DAY IN AMERICUS!
2,500 PERSONS PRESENT!
Stephens, Hardeman and Colquitt
on the Stand !
All Happy Except the Independent
Candidate for Congress—The Speak
ers’ Table Literally Covered with
Bouquets—Sumter All Right.
Wednesday, the 20th of September,
was a great day in Americus. At an
early hour crowds began to pour into
the city until our streets were filled.
It was the most enthusiastic gather
ing that has been seen for years in our
place—everybody for Stephens, Har
deman and Crisp. At the grove near
the depot a “semi-house” had been
erected, its construction being such as
to protect the great commoner and to
economize his voice to such a focus as
to bring it to bear directly upon the
audience in front—it was a matchless
arrangement. By 11 o’clock the bulk
of the crowd had assembled to hear
the speaking, approaching in number
to near twenty-five hundred—five
hundred of whom were ladies. The
Hon. A. H. Stephens was introduc
ed by Hon. Dupont Guerry in a
speech that was a model of beauty.
This young gentleman excelled him
self, and we are proud of him, for he
in his wise words illustrated a man
hood that points unerringly to a
future that will be everything to his
credit as one of our foremost men—
socially as well as politically. Mr.
Stephens’ speech won the enthusiasm
of the audience; all hung breathlessly
upon the words of this grand old
Statesman, and his ludependentism
was of that kind to be found in the
path of duty. He said that he wished
to live to do good, and that he had
fought wrong all his life. He proved
the consistency of his political course
all through his life, and his days had
been spent in working for the princi
ples of a Jeffersonian Democracy. He
proved himself to have been, and is
now, tha best friend that the colored
man has, and that his efforts had not
been of that kind consisting in mere
words, but he was “out of pocket” for
them. That money to him was only
valuable so far as to do the greatest
good with it. In his “roller chair” he
enlisted such an attention that is sel
dom seen, and it was indeed a tribute
of love and respect awarded to this
good man, who has spent a long life
in doing all the good that he could.
The next speaker was Col. Thomas
Hardeman, who was formally intro
duced by E. G. Simmons, Esq., in a
few happy words. “Our Tom” ex
cellently excelled himself on this oc
casion. His words fell like shells
bursting before, behind, in front
keeping a fellow in a dance all the
time—but, “oh, my countrymen,”
didn’t he go for Judge Harrel ? for he
held him up before the audience criti
cising his political course awfully.
Hardeman’s words cut like a razor,
and from every word there was a big
drop of blood. That Independentism
and that Radicalism was carpet-bag
ism, and that carpet-bagism was
death. The speech was such a mark
ed one, and its impressions upon the
crowd had been such,that after its de
livery we polled as near as we could
the status of Harrell, and could not
find a white man who was in favor of
him.
The next speaker was our beloved
Governor, Hon. A. H. Colquitt, who
was introduced by Dr. J. B. Hinkle,
in one among the nicest speeches we
ever listened to; graceful in manner,
wise in words, the Doctor won the at
tention of every one and was most suc
cessful in drawing the crowd’s atten
tion to the Governor, who was to fol
low in an effort that in the end proved
to be a superb one. The ringing words
of Alfred H. Colquitt, on Wednesday,
September 20th, in the city of Ameri
cus, will never be forgotten, for it was
a manly defense of injured innocence.
Col. Albert Lamar, of the Telegraph
and Messenger , was the gentleman on
trial, and from the expressions of the
crowd after the delivery of the Gov
ernor’s speech, the verdict of “guil
ty” was found against Lamar. Gov
ernor Colquitt’s remarks were direct
ed to a recent editorial of the Tele
graph and Messenger, headed “A
Flank Movement by the Boss,” and
he riddled it to pieces and proved that
Judge Henry R. Jackson’s letter com
pletely exonorated him from the un
just charges of the editor of the Tele
graph and Messenger, and that the of
fending on his part was this, that “he,
the Governor, did not appoint Albert
Lamar to the Solicitor Generalship of
the Eastern Judicial Circuit,” and
that during the war Albert Lamar
had “a quill behind his ear in a bumb
proof position in Richmond, Va., and
that at the capture of Columbus, while
the old and the young, even the boys
were in the trenches for the defense
of that city, Albert Lamar could be
found no where.” The Governor, in
his conclusion, paid a glowing tribute
to the Hon. A. H. Stephens as a bene
factor and a patriot, and dwelt most
beautifully upon his life-long services
in the education of many young men
and young ladies, who, without his
aid, would never have been bene
fltted. This so fired up the old com
moner that he responded with all the
fire of his earlier days, and his clarion
voice rung out over the vast assembly
in no uncertain tones, when he coun
seled all to be true to the battle-flag
of Democracy, and in a solid phalanx
to vote the Democratic ticket.
We, with thousands of others, say:
“God bless this grand old man,” and
with every man and woman who
heard him on last Wednesday, our
fondest heart wishes wili ever go with
him—and don’t you forget it! Thus
ended the memorable Wednesday of
September 20th, 1882.
A Pleasant Time,
The. lion, A. H. Stephens received
his friends on last Thursday morning
at the residence of Maj. M. Speer. It
was a most enjoyable time. Asa
talker he entertained ever-so-much
both the ladies and gentlemen who
called upon him. He spoke most
pleasantly of Americus—being de
lighted with it. He was loud in his
praise of the happy arrangement of
the stand that he spoke from on last
Wednesday—its construction being
almost perfect, so far as it protected
his body as well as to carry his voice
to the crowd before him in an intelli
gent manner, and he desired that a
note of that effect should be made in
the Sumter Republican, for, said
he, “thearrangement was a success.”
This grand old gentleman, in his
“roller chair” entertaining his friends
in the parlor of his hospitable host,
was an impersonation of the beauty of
age, hallowed by a life well spent in
the service of his people; a people that
he loves so well, and the kindly grasp
of his hand to each one proved the
pulsation of a heart that beats ever
for the good of a suffering humanity,
and the evidence of the kindest feel
ings for all. Asa people we feel that
his stay among us, though a brief one,
only cemented us still closer to the
distinguished gentleman, and all who
called upon him felt profited from
his wise and kindly words to eacli
and every one.
Judge Crisp’s Resignation.
Judge C. F. Crisp resigned his posi
tion as Judge of this Judicial Circuit
on last Thursday. During Judge
Crisp’s tenure of his office he won to
himself, the regards of all classes of
our people by his fairness and unsel
fish devotion to duty. On the bench
he was learned in the law, and
proved himself to be most eminently
adapted for the exalted position of a
Judge. While we all will miss him
on the bench, nevertheless, we feel
that soon he will go up higher to do a
greater work, and that there he will
illustrate high qualities of mind and
heart that will speedily insure him a
national reputation. With Judge
Crisp’s resignation there followed him
the plaudit of “well done good and
faithful servant.

Judge Crisp's Appointments.
In another column will be found a
notice of the appointments of Judge
Crisp in his canvass as the Democratic
Candidate for Congress in this Disirict.
The Judge will make things “red
hot” during the campaign, and wo to
Independentism—carpet-bagism and
all the other “isms” that curse a peo
ple. Judge Crisp don’t “box the
compass,” but is true as the needle is
to the pole, to his people and to his
country. Keep the ball rolling Judge.
A Recent Death.
We are indeed sorry to learn of the
sudden death of Mr. Wm. Simmons,
near Dawson, who was found dead in
his bed on last Tuesday morning, and
is supposed to have died from con
gestion. Mr. Simmons was a brother
of Col. R. F. Simmons and Judge J.
M. Simmons, of Dawson, and atone
time a resident in this city. He was
a quiet, modest young gentleman,
and won for himself the esteem of all
who knew him. Our heartfelt sym
pathies are tendered his sorrowing
ones.
To My Friends and Patrons !
I am now located at JOHN R.
SHAW’S large business establish
ment, at which place I would be pleas
ed to see my old friends and patrons,
to whom I will give my personal at
tention and guarantee fair dealing.
PETER F. BROWN.
An Incident of Wednesday.
We noticed with pleasure the un
divided attention little Stovall, son of
Dr. John E. Hall paid Mr. Stephens
during his speech on last Wednesday.
Quiet and earnestly interested, he
hardly once took his eyes from Mr.
Stephens during the delivery of his
(Mr. Stephens,) great speech. This
is a beautiful precociousness in one so
young that may serve as an example
to those of older growth. We predict
for that boy an enviable future.
The Coming "Fair,
We have upon our table, through
the courtesy of Mr. J. W. Wheatley,
a copy of the premium list of the
Americus Fair Association. This Fair
is to commence in our city on Tues
day, October 24th and continue four
days. We hope that this Fair may
be made a success, and from the gen
tlemen who have charge of the mat
ter we are forced to believe that every
effort will be made to make it one of
the best Fairs ever held in Southwest
Georgia. This Fair is gotten up for
the benefit of our agricultural inter
ests, and we hope that an earnest ef
fort will be made in the matter of ex
hibits. The attendance from abroad
will be a large one, and let’s all put
our shoulders to the wheel and make
the thing a success.
The Better for It.
Well, we have once again seen the
Hon. A. H. Stephens and heard him
speak, and we are the better for it,
and we feel like a minister of the gos
pel who said he felt after hearing this
gentleman speak. “His words entered
into my inmost heart.” For years
we have followed upon the foot-steps
of Alexander H. Stephens, and his
words of wisdom we have garnered
up, and to us they are priceless. In
the school room his history of the
United States was a text-book for our
advanced classes, and his “War Be
tween the States” filled a place in our
library. May Georgia’s greatest
Statesman live long to benefit us as a
people with his words of “wisdom,
justice and moderation.”

Burkhalter & Hooks’ Mill.
A visit to the mill of Burkhalter &
Hooks impressed us with its great
value as one of our city’s greatest in
dustrial enterprises. This mill is at
work night and day, and grinds three
hundred bushels of corn per day. Ten
bales of cotton per day are ginned, and
more than that number could be
passed out but the speed of the ma
chinery must be so graduated as not
to cut the staple. Two engineers, two
millers, and a superintendent, with
the balance of a help amounting in all
to eleven persons, are attached to this
establishment. The demand made
upon this mill and gin is a great one,
and its patronage increases from day
to day.
On a Rush.
J. Waxelbaum & Cos. have been on
a rush for several days. On Wednes
day they sold three thousand dollars
worth of goods, on Thursday twenty
one hundred dollars worth; and on
Friday about five thousand dollars
worth, all at wholesale. The retail
trade was also immense. Their stock
of dress goods, ladies’ underwear,
cloaks, clothing, perfumery, jewelry,
hosiery, etc., etc., is just the largest
ever brought to this market. Max
Gross, the junior of the firm, has ex
celled all other purchasers and now
presents a stock that will compare
with any in the South.

centered upon one house in the city.

Harrold, Johnson & Cos. says that their

lican did its work well, for it made
them sell out instanter every Eclipse
engine on hand, and that they have
ordered another car load, and that the
demand for these engines is a great
one. Let ’er roll.
