JNO. W. RADLEY, Editor.
The Express has a larper circu-

OF COBB.
five about his recoxl previous (o the
year 1874? To refer to his record
back of that date be calls a “personal
attack” on him.
SkJP’ A gentleman from Haralson
was asked the question, “are you for
Lester or Felton?” His only reply
was, “I was in the war for four years.”
After seeing such a sentiment
expressed by the galvanized Feltonite
we are not surprised to find bis tilthy
sheet filled with filthier abuse of the
one-armed hero of Cobb.
As wo tnay have remarked
before, when Dr. Felton’s henchman
at Home likens George Lester’s emp
ty sleeve to Morton’s “bloody shirt'
howl, he grossly mistakes the senti
ments of Georgia democrats.
B3T The Gartersvilie J'Vco Press
claim « victory for Felton in the Dal
ton discussion. How comes it then
that the purson was so badly bucked
by the discussion as to positively re
fuse to meet Judge Lester again,
victory, indeed!
sen are slanderous. The false and
malicious defamation of the charac
ter of Judge Lester. For the hon
est, fair dealing and disinterested
supporters of Dr. Felton, we have
not now, and shall never have, any
hard words, but we do insist that
they examine these slauders which
have been contracted and set afloat
by the bitterest enemies of Jud,
Editorial Correspondence.
Lookingout through the sun-light,
with the thermometer registering,
104 in the the shade, it seems to us
that the readers of the Express
should excuse us from ever thinking,
let alone inditing thoughts for their
edification. Wo tell you now, gen**
tlemen, that much warm -r weather
than this could pot be endured. It
Lester, with care and fairness. This i has brought premature death to hun-
dreps ol households already, and un
less there be an abatement the num
bers will be counted by thousands.
There was once a fat man very
much depressed by the beat, and
is all that we ask. Our faith in the
people is too strong for us to believe
that they will put and faith in char
ges which, if true, ought to consign
Judge Lester to a cell in the Peni-
Wll >' ifl 1)r - l ' Vlton 80 tentiury, based as they are upon the
unsurported assertions of subsidized
organs and unscrupulous newspaper
correspondents. II these charges
are true, then Judge Lester is un
worthy of the support of any honest
man. If they are false, then Dr
Felton lias lied, wilfully and know
ingly, ami he is certainly unworthy
the support, of any honest man.
Judge Lester and his friends invite a
close exeminution of his private and
public life. Go to his home, among
his neighbors, to those men all over
the district, who have known him
well and intimately for years, and
have been during all that time ac
quainted with all his actions in pub
lic and private life, and ask them if
George Lesler is not a true and hon
est man in his dealings with his fel
low men and in his conduct towards
his country and his party. Not one
of the many slanders which have
been heaped upon him are believed
or repeated by Judge Wright or Gen.
Wofford, and they are enthusiastic
supporters of Dr. Felton. How
stood the character of Judge Lester
before the beginning of this race?

But then his friends say I hat

we spec lie does.

nnd overthrown, “horse, foot and
dnigoon” in two encounters on the
stump,mul who has not the cotirag
tn meet his opponent again, can hard
ly stand up against the shrewd, prac
tised debaters in Congress, and can
not hut misrepresent the Seventh
District there.
82T*Tht*re is a shocking conflict
of testimony among the big Felton*
ites. Dr. Felton and his nasty
mouthed organs attempt to heslime
Judge Lester with tilthy abuse, while
Judge A. If. Wright and Gen. Wm.
Tatum Wofford declare him to ho uu
ublo, honest, upright, Christian gen
tleman—why this thusness?
We hear it reported that the
excuse Dr. Felton gives for not joint
ly canvassing the district with Judge
Lester, is his horror of personalties.
This is a miserable subterfuge wo all
kuow, after reading an 'account of
the bitter personal attack made by
Dr. Felton on Judge Lester. The
Doctor prefers to go round the coun
try alone, singing his own praise,
without the fear of contradiction.
Ilis magnificent record won’t bear
analysing.
iW” The writer of the communi
cation in last week’s Record, signed
“Organized Democrat,” must surely
go upon the presumption that there
is no intelligence or honesty left to
the country. He gravely repeals
slanders against Judge Lester, for
which Dr. Felton indirectly apolo
gised ar Dalton, nnd that, too,
suspect, after he find heard that Dr.
Felton had so apologised. Our ad
vice to our friend is to keep his eye
on Dr. Felton, and tamely follow his
lead, for wo fancy that the Doctor is
a man of a little more political sit-
gucity than “Organized Democrat,”
judging from the style and tone of
his communication. Our friend
should remember the old uduge about
“little boats.”
WHAT NEXT.
The Ringgold convention wuscom-
posed of delegates who were honest
and representative men, and theirac
tion was free from any taint of fraud.
No breach can be made there, and
the stale cry of “ring,”“clique,” &c.,
can no longer deceive and lead astray
the honest democratic voter. Hence
Dr. Felton, and those of his friends
whose solo object is to break up and
destroy the democratic party of this
district cast about them to find oth
er means by which to deceive and
poison the miuds of the people
against the democratic nominee.
Apd the means which they have oho-
all liis neighbors, and by all who
intimately knew him; trusted bv his

sition which a layman can (ill; plac

of energy and uhilty; atone time his
character lauded to the skies by Dr.
Felton himself; uuanimosly endorsed
by a convention whoso whole object
was to place before the people a pure
and able man. Surely if these char
ges are not the basest slanders, he is
tho most consumute hypocrite who
ever disgraced the ‘world ! But »hey ,
are base slanders, Vi»l? they will re
coil with a terrifim crushing force
upon the man who has made them.
We venture the prediction that be
fore the campaign closes there will
not be an intelligent, supporter of
Dr. Felton who will have the face
the hardehpod, to repeat the slanders.
They will soon be as dilligently em
ployed in excusing themselves for
littering them, as they have been in
setting them afloat.

An Error Corrected.
In the campaign of 1870, Judge
Lester supported Col. Dabney for
Congress against Dr. Felton, and the
story was set afloat that Lester had
voted for and supported a Radical,
Colo, for Congress in 1808. Ho then
published a denial, which we copy
from tho Homo Daily News, of Oct.
29, 1879. Judge Lesters ilenitil of
the same story twice on tho stump
in the lust few days Inis silenced those
who Inive hom'd h im:

puss unnoticed, if it were not lining
repented for the purpose of counter-
noting my humble influence iu favor
of Col. IV. H. Dulmoy, and the in
tegrity of tho Democratic party in
tho Seventh Congressional District.
Pending the Canvass in 1898 I could
neither vote nor hold ollice, und I
here assert tliut. the man don’t live
who ever heard me utter n word in
furor of Mr. Cole in that campaign.
I made speeches all through the dis
trict with Col. Akin, Dr. Miller,
Gen. Gordon, Gen. Wofford nnd
otlters, and as none of us thought
that Gen. Young would obtain a seat
in Congress, if elected, and us Mr.
Cole wus un avowed supporter of
Gen. Gordon against llullock, and
wits also openly against the rutificn-
tionofthe constitution of Georgia
then before the people for ratification
or rejection, the race between him
and Gen. Young was entirely ignored
by the speakers in the campaign.
This being so, it is to lie hoped that
none of Dr. Felton’s friends will re
pent tho story of my having bolted a
nomination. Respectfully,
Geo. N. Lester.

Gun. Wofford failed to repeat the
clmrgus riiiide by Dr, Feltou at Car**
tersville against the moral honesty
and political integrity of Judge Les
ter. On the contrary, he eulogized
Judgu Lester as a man and said “he
never failed to answer yea to call of
his party.” The speaker’s main
purpose seemed to he to array some
particular parties, people or race
against the Democracy,lie going so
far as to charge the Democratic party
with destroying the Uunion, hut
upon u second trial made out to lay
the charge upon the “secession wing
of the Democratic party,” to which
wing he admitted that Wm. II. Fel
tou belonged. Wu did not see the
pertinency of the point he was mak
ing, hut were satisfied that his argu
ment, like a boomerang, was more
likely to injure the thrower than the
enemy at which it was directed.
After Gtn. Wofford had spoken an
hour, he gave way to Col. Joel Bran-
liam, who spoke for an hour and a
half, making a telling speech. He
took up the charges, one by one, that
Dr. Felton made against Judge Les
ter at CarterfiviUe, and, from the jour-
a . produced ..
