Newspaper Page TextTHE RECORD. CEDARTOWN, GA., HRPT. 12, 1874. POR C0NGRE88, 7TII DIRT. »r. Wm« II. I^o 1 ton, OP BARTOW COUNTY. At a primary mooting held in Bar tow county on the 5th inet Dr. Thou. Baker and Thomas Tumlio were re nominated for the LegiaUtnro. Ex-Got. Joseph E Brown is ont in a loiter condemning the Civil Rigbta iniquity in langtiago too plain to be be misunderstood. Ho also give* a frank and brief history of his political oourso since tho war and refnsos to act any fnrther with the Radicals, end calls for a Democratic victory. Tho Lagrange Reporter says: '♦Hon L N. Trammell was n6raiiia- ted for oongross in the Seventh Do- strict last Wednesday, on tho seven teenth ballot. We may be mistakon, but we think tho oonvontion might have done better." So we, and so the people, will say. Yellow fever has appeared in Pon- saoola, and somo unoasinnas begins to -be felt in the citties of Alubaron. Two men died from its deadly effects in Pensaoola last Saturday, and one now caao appeared on Sunday. The Montgomery News nrges immediate preventive action by its municipal au thoritlos. A oorrospondont of tho Humtnor- villo Gazetto says that Dr. Felton addressed tho pooplo of Wulkor oonn- at LaFnyotte, last week, who woro well pleased with him. Tho same cor respondent says that Felton will re ceive many votes in Walker—that strong men and strong Democoats will support him. Taxes. Tho Roukmart Reporter, of last wook, informs its readers what tho taxoe of this year will bo ono hun dred and fifty per cent, on tho Stato tax, and altogether $12 CO on tho thousand. Tho Roportor thinks tho taxoe should have boon much lighter, aud osea ns argument tho fuct that "thoro is a largo amount of fuuds on hand for both goneral county poupos- os and jury fund." Now, lot us seo wlmt that large, amount is. The grand jury of first woek reported fuuds for county pur poses, $128 11, jury fund $1,24108, bridgo fund, $855 00. Paid out for county purposes fiist woek of oourt, general fund, $204 57; jury fund, $580 05, leaving a balance on hand for OQunty purposes of $188 GO, and of jury fund $710 08. It will bo soon that tho first woek of oourt cost tho county, ou general fund, $204 57, leav ing on hand oply $183 GO—not enough to pay expenses for second wook. First woek tho jury fund was roduood $530 05, leaving in the treasury ouly $710 08, aud if Second week cost sumo as first, only $170 13 of that fund now romaius in troosury. Aud it must bo romombored that wo huvo an adjourn : od term of oourt noxt mouth, of at least ono wook, which will loavo tho county considerably iu debt on these two funds. Tho bridge fund is ouly $855 OG. The grand jury rooommoml tho building of thnw now bridgos and the repairing of somo old ones —and wo boliovo thoir recommendation should bo compliod with—which will leave tha county in debt ou that fund. Wo agree with tho Roportor that tho nssossmont scorns to bo protty high, and aro in favor of a reduction in tho futuro, if it can bo douo with out dotrimont to tho interests of tho oouuty, nml will favor any legitimate plan for tho reduction of taxes. We aro not familiar with tho provi- expenditures of our oouuty offi cials, and kuow nothing of the "ox: travagant expenditures'' tho Reporter refers to. Our main objoot in this article is to show that thoro is not a large amount of fuuds in tho county troasury, ac cording to our estimate of a largo amount. Troops to l»e Distributed over the Southern States Ordors woro issued on tho 5th, from tho War Dopartiuout for troops to be distributed throughout several of the Southern States. Tno following is tho ordor of tho distribution : Eight companies of tho Socoud Infnutry, iu Alabama, six iu Georgia, and one in Tonuorsoo. Tho entire Third Infant, ry at Holly Springs, Miss. Three companies of tho Sixtoouth Iufautry iu Keulucky, two iu Kuusna, aud ouo iu Mississippi, ouo iu Lousiann, aud ouo iu Touuosseo. Eight companies of the Eighteenth Iufuntry iu South Carliua, and ouo m Virginia. Six companies of the Second Artillery iu North Carolina, ouo in Virginia, and four iu Maryland; mukiug tho whole number of troops South about twvniy- tivo hundred. Somo of tlmt bacon for vhe “over flowed districts ' is to Iv sent up into the mountains .f Alabama! The Montgomery Advertiser says that for ty thousand pomuis of it reached Cn- lera, by tho South and North Rail road, on Thursday night. Dr. Wm. II. FELTON. When wo oommoneod tho publica tion of tho Raconn, wo announced our independoncy of all political rings, factions or cliques, and that our pa per would bo devoted to tho advoca cy of ©vory measure and enterprise that would onuro to tho intorost of Polk and surrounding countios, and take no intorost in tho political con tests of the day, furthor than to advo cate correct principles and tho soloc- tion of good and honest men to office. Our renders know bow much com plaint baa boon modo recently against dishonest and incapable office holders. Groat ovils havo boon inflicted upon the country by bod mon boing put in to high and rosponsiblo positions. Nominating convontions aro usually gotten up by designing politicians, for their own iptorost, and thoir nom ination socurod by trickory, trados and log-rolling, and evory ono of tho party who havo tbo manliness and indo- pendonco to rofuse to support such nominees, howover disreputable tboir character may bo, or dishonorable the means rosorted to for securing tho nomination, aro dononncod as disor ganizes, Radicals and Scalawags, and tho party lash applied so vigorously that tho nomineo usually secures his election, and tho peoplo continuo to murmur against dishonest and cor rupt offico-holdors. Xf tho pooplo want honesty in offico-holdors. they must apply tho rotnody themselves. Whon a man is presented for a high and rosponsiblo offico, whoso integrity and voracity is unimpcaohablo and abovo suspicion, and who entertains correct principles, lot all thoso who want honesty in an offico-holdor sup port suoh a man, and they will no lon ger havo cause to ooinp lain. Behoving that tho peojde want to solid an honost man to tho noxt Con- gross, wo placo at our mast hoad to day tho namo of Dr. Wm. H. Felton, of Bartow, for that position. Ho is an independent Democratic candidato, uominatod by no political clique, but brought out by tho voico of tho honost yeomanry of tho country. Ho fills ovory requisite of Thomas Jefferson for an offico-holdor. Ho is honost, faithful and cnpnblo. Should ho bo sont to Cougross ho would soon rauk with tbo ablest and bust men of that body. While bo is no politician thoro is no man in this district hotter post- oil in tho political history of this country. A man of finishod educa tion, and ono of tho finest orators in the Stato. Ovor twenty yoars ago, whon ho was quito a young man, tho pooplo of Cass (now liartow) sont him to tho logislaturo, whore ho was considered ono of tho ablest mon in that body. If tho pooplo want to vote for a man who is known to bo scrupulously honost in ovory relation of life, and possessed of the highost ordor of tal- onts, thoy will havo suoh an opportu nity. Will they do it? Wo boliovo thoy will. For pursuing this oourso wo may oxpeot to bo held up as disorgauizors by all those who havo au axo to grind. Bo it bo. If it is treason to advoOato tho oloction of ouo of tho ablest, pur est and host mon in this congressional district to a scat iu Cougross, rnuko t bo most of it. Mr Editor—I not loo fan article in *tho Atlanta Constitution headed " Congress ional Nominations,’’ in which groat joy is expressed that tho Convention followed tho wiso Counsel “ lirgotl by the Conttiilii tion, ’’and “aolooted the candidat o whom Hoomcd the ohoioo of the largest number of tho pooplo." Tho assertion that Tram mollis tho choice of the majority of the pooplo in this district, is utterly without foundation. Tho truth is, a more unpopu lar man could not have boon put forward, and tho great majority of tho good Demo crats aro not only opposed to hit* oloction | but are determined to vote against him and do all in their power to defeat him. Col. Trammell was nominated by tho worst kind of trickery, the delegates themselves acknowledging that they woro grossly de ceived and " sold out," and some going so far as to refuse to support him, allcdging that ho was not oven the choice of the con vention, much less tho people at large. The above mentioned article goes on to say that tho “ preacher, Felton, should he hus tled roughly out of the race," and hints that he, Felton, Is a radical cooperator. Now the writer of that article knows, or should know, that If the record, political or other wine, of Trammell and Felton, woro exhibited side by side, Trauioll would bo made to blush with shame and suenk away iuto some dark corner and there hide him self forever from public notice. A u edito rial iu the Commerolol, in commenting upon tho nomination, states this as a “ co gent " reason why tho Democratic parly should give Col. Trammell thoir cordial and undivided support: “Hois the chosen standard bearer of the party, tho represen tative ot' their principles, chosen by tho representative men of this Congressional District direct from the people. ' This l deny. Trammell is not the chosen stand ard bearer of the Democratic party, ho was not tho choice of tno representative men of this district. Tho Commercial says ••it is not the man but the principle of the party you advance aud give force to.” It was just such principles ns these that caus ed the Democratic party to run ort after Greoly and came near spilling the party to atoms and sculering it to the four winds. How can we expect princi| le to be main tained by nun who do not subscribe to these principles. Away with the idea that forced upon thorn by fraud, ^bribery and trickery, even when they believe the man to be uuuounu, unsafe itui without pr'.noi- 1 pW. The gt eat fuud •menial principle of I Democracy, freedom, and it becomes ev- j e v member of that , arty to see to it that j this principle is maintained, and that it | can never be (alien away by these disgrace I ful, Bjissrullcd conventions. Paioa’a Station, Qa., Ang. 28. Editor Record:—I send yon for publication the speach of GoL N. J. Tomlin, delivered to tho Negroes at this place last night. As we took no note© at tho time, it may bo incorrect to somo oxtent, bat this will bo under stood by tho author, and proper allow- anco made by him. Beforo submit ting his remarks, wo will say that they wero the embodiment of truth and soberness, clothed iu plain, com mon son so and forcible garb. The negroes received it warmly and with candor, showing very clearly tho hap py effects of Colonel Tomlin's policy towurds the colored race. If we ‘had a man of similar tact, sentiment and energy in evory district in tho county, these renegade politicians, who take advantage of tho ignorance of the col ored race to elevate thomselves, would vory soon seek another roost. But wo will lot Mr. Tumliu speak for him self in tho following address: “My colored friends: My object in coming hero, is to say something that may prove of mutual bene fit to us all, to you and to mo. What 1 sny will be by way of reply to what one of your own color said to you iu a speech the other day. You had speeches from two, Albert and Crum ley. As for Albert, I don’t propose to notice him at all, because you havo sense enough to seo where his counsel and advice lend to, and that all he said eminated from a moan prejudice for tho base pnrnoso of securing your votes and thereby to fatton on your ignornco. I don’t believo you are so oastly duped, neither do I beliove you placed any confident) in what he says. Crumley, I givo credit of being an honest negro, for I liuvo known him a long time, and 1 am sorry to son him so much in error, so wofully decei ved. But Crumley is honest in it aud ho is a fair fellow, aud I could con vince him of his mistake if I could talk with him awhile. Now ho told you in tubstance tho Democratic party and especially tho ,youth wero iustrumeutul in bringing you here iu to q state of boudugo aud away from your native country. Now all this is wrong, unjust and untrue in every par ticular. No such a imrtj na the*dem ocratic party, existed at tho timo sla very was introduced into this country, therefore it ts utterly impossible for thorn ns n party to have had auy hand in it. Tho yankees of the northern states kidnaped you in Africa un i brought you here and sold you to tho southern white mon, for their hard euruod dollars, for which they hud spent a life tiuio of herd toil, aud turned right round and liberated you, after the} had got our money in thoir pockotH. Thoy Imd just us well rob bed us at first. Iu effect they robbed you of liberty and us of money. Now who is to blame ? They put you on tho market us u thing of merchandise. We had money and bought you at their solicitation, aud us a goneral thing treated you well, gnvo you plen ty to oat and wear, good medical at tention and church privluges and thousands of you were hotter off than you are to-day. I think Crumley said somo truo things about itu being provdoutial that you wero brought to a oivilized country to bo christianized, educated Au. I am of the opiniou that it will result iu groat good both hero, aud some day, iu Africa. Certain it is you hme boon greatly bonofilcd. There you wore ignorant isolators, boro you aro christianized, civilized and many of you educated. 'ibis much I havo said to show you that the institution of slavery was a blessing to your luce, for otherwise you would bo wandering ovor tho hot sands of Africa, onting up ono auoth- or, falling down to worship idols of stouo, nud casting your babes into tho angry waves as a sttorafico to somo immAginary god. Aud again, to show you that whatever blame is attached to tho origin of slavery, it belongs to eastern yankocs, aud I will venture to uuy thoy are all radicals aud not of tho democratic party of tho south. These carpet bag yankees, who eoino down here, and iu dark corners whisper groat pretentions of friendship aro tho children of tho sarno old yankoo kidnappers who stolo you iu Africa, brought you ltoro and sold you to us. Thoy havo made all tho rnouoy thoy could out of you that way, now thoy propose to speculate on your igurauce And your owu color will do the same. Grit inly told you if you could not got your rights boro, and fairer contracts, to pack up and leave. Now if you want to go nobody will deter you, but it is all nonsense. If you aro bit in a contract it is your own fault. It is on nccount of your own carelessness in making con tracts. Bo more careful, and you will havo no trouble. You know ibis is truo. # 4nd you know that somo spend all thoy make during tho year, and whon Christmas couios thoy complaiu because thoy havo uo money. I ad mit that that thoro are menu white mon, but if thoy bito you onco, thoro is no use to bo bittou tho second timo. They toll you wo Southern Democrats aro uot your friends, but your enemies. Grout God! how it worries me. These base, designiug, protended friends ot yours deceiving you. What evidence havo they furnished you of thoir friendship? None under tho sun. Dili ono ever givo you a ceut? 1 lasn't ho asked you for money, eat ing your broad and meat. Have they clothed and fed you ? What have wo Democrats done to make you believe we are your enemies ? Nothing that , I cau see. Wo have furui&hod you I with something to eat au l wear aud land to cultivate, your churcl.03 an I ! school houses. Don’t trust them. Don’t boliovo thorn, Thiuk for your selves—havo tho manhood to think i fur yourselves. You older ones have seen too much of lib* to bo duped by such uoubjnso. They make a grout ado about civil rights bill. Why, there is nothing in it that you waut ' that you bavu't already. Do you want mixed schools. CCries of no 1 no!) Do you waiit mixed congregations? (not not) Do you want to ride in same car with the whites? (No! noi) Do you want to bury your dead ni our grave yards? (NoI no!) Do you want to cat at the sarno table at tho hotels with tho whites. Then what is there secured by tho civil rights bill that you want, and bavu’t tdreapy got. Nothing. No, it is all a piece of doception, gotten up to ar ray yon against the .Southern white man, your only real, true friend, in order to secure votir votes. Havo not these pretended frionds deceived iu evory instanoo ? They havo fed you you false promises of forty acres uud a mule aud the like, ever since the war, and never ltuve they profited you a cent. Thoy labor to teach you to hnte your neighbor and friend, tbo only ones who are able and willing to help you, and will stick close to you if you will stick to them. . No, I repeat, don’t suffer these loaf ing gus pipes to dictate to you. Show your manhood by thinking for your selves. They seek to stir up strifo bo- twen us. There is do reason why wo should bo enemies; we dosire to be your friends. My advice to yon is to stick to your business, and by indus try and economy mnko money, edu cate your children, and vory soon you will begin to prosper, rnd every body will respect you. You need to culti vate habits of industry. If you do- siro to vote, pick out some good, reli able man you can trust, and havo him to advise you how to voto, if yon can't decido for yourself, then go and vote peacably. Hold your political meet ings in the day time, publicly, and don’t be slipping round tho corners in tho dark, to gratify these seditious, groveling politicians who seek your votes and not your welfare. Yes, cul tivate relations of ponce with tho Southern white poopfe, among whom pou aro to live nud dio. Work aud savo and accumulate property, and yon will prosper; and wo all, black and whito will, will) peace and pleas ure, enjoy tho bounty of hor riches. May God bless,- prosper and direct yon, that you may do all things pru dently, ami see and know for a truth who aro your frieuds.
