FOR CONGRESS, 7TII HIST.
I>r« Wm. II« Felton,
OP BARTOW COUNTY.
Tlic Homo Convention.
Tbo action of iliin contention, which
MBomhlod lnht Momlny, was watched
with considerable interest It wan
hopod that Iho convention would act
with a deliberation and calm judg
ment which tho oxigcncioa of thoaitu-
ntion domand They should have ex-
•rcinod tho aonudost discretion and
followod tho dictatos of wisdom. It
should have represented the wishes of
tho pooplo, and rellocted their Btnli-
tnents. Dut instead of this, they sot
to work to defoat their wishos. The
main object they seemed to bavo in
mow was to boat Dr. Fulton. # Tho
sti ugglo wan to boat him, not to pro-
servo and defend Democratic princi
ples. This, and this alono, was Iho
object. If thoy had desired to pre-
servo tho organization of tho Demo
cratic party, they would lmvo obeyed
tho behoflts of tho people, and foro-
borno to make a nomination, and
would bavo issued an address urging
the support of Dr. Felton, a “sound”
and trno Democrat.
It has boon doinonatrntod beyond a
doubt, and proven conclusively by tho
acts of OoL Trammell and tho cxocu-
tixo committee, that Dr. Fulton was
tho strongest man, and the choice of
Iho people. Tho executive commit too
first met at Cartorsvillo and tried to
tnko Dr. Felton dowu, against Iho
wishes and over (ho protest of the
people. In a communication limy ad
dressed to Dr. Fulton (hoy asked him
to “abandon his vory fluttering pros
pects.” Whon tho proposition was
mndo to tako Dr. Felton down, a voioo
oomo up from tho hills and valleys
calling upon Dr. Fulton to go on with
tho good work
Tho cnnvnss went on until Train*
moll lost all hopes, and abandoned tbo
field. Dut before be bad finally with
drawn from tho race, thoolmirinun of
tho committee hoard tho mutlorings
of tho thu inlet h and began to proparo
for tho storm which threatened to en
gulf a Jhvjx)l\ti'Hann, Tho iurorosls
and welfaro of the pooplo, nor Demo
cratic principles, were not ondiui-
gorod. Tho assurances wore, llmt Dr.
Folton would gain a glorious iliumpb
for tho it(io Democracy,, Bui this
would novor do, for politicians would
bnvo to go foot. Ho Col. John Wof
ford, chairman of tho committoo,
tired io tho “back room of his Pala
tial residence,’’ and there, solitary and
alono, melancholy nnd sad, ho solilo
quized ; “If Dr. Felton sUeoeods, tho
hivg ts 'hunted,' something must be
dono, and that light quick. I will
call tho executive ccmmitteo together
again, and soo if wo can’t bolster up
Trammoll, or gol up something to tho
projudico of Dr. Fulton.” But alas l
tho now’fl comes that Dr. Felton has
demoralized and stampeded Trammoll
and Iho Colonel has mndo a Bull-Run
from tho field. “Alas I woo! woo! is
mo; wool woo! is Trammell, and moro
especially, woo 1 woo! is (boiling* A
happy thought sh ikes mo. More,
tho 'back room of my pallatial resi
dence’, I will resolvo myself into
committoo of one, aud I w ill nominate
nnd duct myself Dictator of tho Sev
enth Congressional district, nnd l will
call u new convention and nominnto a
candidate who can boat Folton. Tram
moll seys ho shall bo boat on, and 1 say
ho shall bc'boaton. I know tho ma
jority of tho pooplo want Folton, but
tho people have tbcon dioated out o f
their choice, nnu oan bo agnii
Will, on tlio 10th, Col. Wofford
issued his call for tho couvolition to
nssciublo in lloino ou tho 10th—-just
r.iuo days. Docs any ono suppose
that ono-fourth of tho pooplo heard of
tho call before tho convention met '?
A meeting was called hero on tho
13th and mot on tho 17th, giving only
four days notice, and that by notices
stuck up at a few places. This was
not sufficient to give tho people notice.
Aud when tho mooting assembled
there wero only about forty present.
We wero not prsont, but heard, from
parlies who wire, that, tho highest
vote rccioveil by any delegate was
thirty throe. This county will vote
about ono thousand whites. Is ii
light and proper, legitimate and just,
that forty moil shall dictate to the re
maining nine hundred aud sixty for
whom to vote ?
A similar call was made in Barlow-
county nnd in response, “about two
hundred pooplo met on ms.se.” In
an other column will l>o seen tho
nctiou of that mooting and tho ns 'lo
tions passed. Tiny called upon tho
Homo convention “to exurciso tho
soundest discretion,” ‘to forbear mak
ing a nomination, aud give a passive
obedience to Iho behest of tho people.”
Tbo rsolutions wore passed ‘ with only
ono dissenting voice.” After that
meeting had adjourned, Col. J. W.
Hurt is called another mooting, and
"nitui mm" got together and elected
delegates to the Ilomo convention.
And those nine wore reeiovml at Home,
nnd the appeal of the two hundred
disregarded. Con these nino men
bind the people of Bartow? Wo think
not. Besides, we insist that these nino
had no i Iglit to act, no i iglit to go to
Home, and had no power to bind any
body, because tbo meeting bold under
the regular call had mol and ndjourn-
od, nnd hero ntided all power and mi
llion ly to act.
Iho chairman had no power or au
thority to call a convention. No such
power or authority is vested in him.
Efforts lmvo been inado to justify it
on tho ground of emergency. An
unfair convention, and an unwise
nominal ion brought about tlio emer
gency.
Dr. Felton has saved tho pooplo
from tho impending disaster. It is Dr.
Felton who deserves the commenda
tion and praiso of tho pooplo, mid not
tho Executive committee or tho Homo
convention.
We hold that the chairman had no
right to call a convention; mi l wo
furthermore submit tlmt tho conven
tion was not properly constituted, be
cause a part of tbo counties
wero not represented, tbo dulo-
egates from others, as in Bartow, were
not authorized to represent their
oounlioc, and some even roproHeiilod
without any voice from tho pooplo,
Calhoun delegates Inking upon them
selves tho authority to act.
Tlio executive comniitloo had no
right, powor or authority to call back
tho Calhoun delegates. It was their
acts and doings that iho pooplo had
just repudiated, ami it was tlrnir acts
that brought about tho emergency,,
Now, whom shall wo support—tho
representative of tho pure, unduflli'd
Democracy—the People’s candidate,
Dr. Felton, or the Politicians’ candi
date, Col. Dabney ?
Wo say there are many reasons
why wo should vote for ‘Dr. Folton.
llo is the strongest man. Tho calling
of the ox cou live committoo togolhor
twice; the assembling of Iho conven
tion; Cck Trammell's nbitnuoflmoul
uf tho race, all prove that tlio majority
wore with Folton. Why, then, does
not tho minority go with tbo majority?
Why did uotCul. Wofford respectfully
acquiesce in tbo decision of the poc-
ple, and lot them lmvo their choice,
e lime. ?
it become apparent long before Iho
Calhoun convention, tlmt a Ring had
boon formed to divide tho oIIIoob, aud
it was absolutely necessary, for tho
intorost and welfaro of tho country,
that its power should bo broken. Ii
was a bold undertaking, and required
talent and energy. Tlio Ring was
very strong, and would mako a des
perate war on any man who would
undertake to break their hold on
power nnd defeat thoir sordid ambi
tion. Dr. Folton corao forward as tho
pooplo’s champion. Ho boarded the
Hon in bis dun; ho uudorlook iho
light for tho people; has breasted tho
storm, and lms won ono grand, gl
oua victory. Thoso who have been
for Felton cannot now abandon l
lJis taiumph will not be complete un
til ho is elected. Besides, tho pooplo
owo him a debt of gratitude for what
ho has dono. lie 1ms fought iho peo
ple’s fight, and now lot tho people
stand by him. It would ho wrong
and unjust to abandon him now. Wo
think Pr. Felton will ho elected, and
it will bo tho grandest triumph over
achieved in this district.
Of course it is ronsouablo to suppose
tlmt some few of Col. Dabney’s friends
in tho city of Homo, who wore Felton
men will vote for Col. Dabney for the
silko of h eal intorost and personal
considorations, but nothing like tho
change expected by him and his con
vention, will take place. Tho ox-Tram
mell now'Hpap.'is will, of course, send
abroad minors of a great many voters
going over to Dabney. So they did
about Trammell. Thoy in^hted that
ho was gaining five hundred, moro or
less, a day, when in fact ho was grow
ing weaker every day; so don’t bo sur
prised at anything you hear. We
learn that Felton's friends aru firm,
even in Homo, with a few executions,
wlijjsi the county of Floyd at largo is
very slightly, if at all, affected. It is
thought doubtful whether Dabney can
eany Floyd. Both sides cl. im tho
county. If ho cannot get h : s own
county by a largo majority, don’t you
know there is no chance for hiui. \\ e
louru that it is all right in Floyd.
Felton men don’t feel liko turning
against their f. iond aud deliverer.
The llina Will Triumph If
Felton is DeTcnluif.
But ono plausablo reason litis hoefl
assigned why ft new nominee should
he put in the field in tho Boronlh dis
trict and Dr. W. H. Felton fought
down to Iho bittor end. It is, that if
tho Demcrncy, as an organization, sub
mit to bis indepondnnt candidature,
they will ho making a precedent by
means of which ambitious men, in the
future, can split up the party nnd ut
terly destroy its discipline.
At tho first blush this roason may
seem sound; but, when it is investiga
ted, von find there is roally nothing in
it. Dr. Felton is not tho first man
who has revolted against what is call
od a “regular” nomination. Tliero
lmvo been independent candidates be
fore. Sometimes they have boou
elected, sometimes defeated, bat no
where do wo find that thoir candidat
ure woikcd any radical harm to their
party. It is iudoed, nn iiiHult to tho
voters of tho Seventh district to ohargo
that tlio presout schism will destroy
tho Democracy. A groat party, which
owes its existenoo to tho advocacy of
groat principles, cannot ho destroyed
by tlio independent candidature of an
individual.
The situation of tho Seventh dis-
riot is n plain and simple one. By
trickery and poifidy Major Trammoll
was declared tho nominee of the Dem
ocratic party. This fact, added to his
being personally objectionablo, led to
a revolt against his nomination. By
common agreement the thousands
who refused to suport him made Dr.
Felton their candidate. Wo caro ab
solutely nothing for tho fact that Dr.
Felton lmd appeared in tho field be
fore tho nomination was made. Ho
became tlio representative of tho poo
plo after iho nomiimticn was made,
and he succeeded in driving Trjynmell
from tho field.
When Major Trammoll willulrow
from tho contest ho surrendered.
Whon tho executive committee accept
ed his withdrawal it justified tlio revolt.
Tho struggle really was wild her Tram
mell or Felton was tho real represent
ative of the Democracy of the Stvonlh
district, And tho moment Trammell
withdrew and tho Executive commit
tee sanctioned his withdrawal, that
nv>mout Dr. Folton bocarao tho nomi
nee of tho Democracy us much as if ho
lmd roc< bed the unanimous vote of a
convention of Iho party.
Thcro is no wny of getting around
this conclusion. War was made on
Trammell bccauso of his alleged per
Honul uuworthiness, but moro partic
ularly because of tho manner in which
ho was made tho nominee. For a tan
gible and well definod reason tin* peo
ple n fused to support him. Willi
1 )r. Folton tho ease was different
Tho very worst that has boon said
against him is that ho is a “disorg
izor,” and that he is ambitious, a
those charges, absurd and puerile
they are, lmvo been inado only by tho
hum who supported Trammoll aud
defended the perfidy which norain t d
him.
Felton, wo repeat, is tho real D
ocrutio candidate of tlio district,
oppose him with another Democratic
candidal • now, is merely uu oudoft
Io punish Lhoso who rovaltod rgaiust
Trammell, and to dr g him down,
How many of tho thousands of thost
who would not vote for Trammell will
allow themselves to bo placed in tho
altitude of un nabandoning everything
in tho hour of success? How many
of them will bo perfidious enough to
desert Dr. Folton now, after bolus
fought their battle, and fought it suc
cessfully, and thus punish him for uu
act which they supported him in pei-
fonniug, aud which certainly culls for
THE SINGER.

Demon
v Victories In Uio
West.
At thujlato elections in tho Stales
of Ohio, Ituliaun, Arkansas and West
Virginia, tho Democrats lmvo . either
been victorious or gained largely. In
Arkansas tlio Democrats estimate was
105,000 votes oust in Iho hitoelection;
largest number over polled in tho
State, and the Constitution Demo
cratic State ticket wero canicd by
75,000 majority. Tho Democratic
majority in luditiua estimated at
12,000.
Writing now, in ignorance of what
tho convention bus dono at Homo, wo
unhesitatingly say that tho victory of
Hie pooplo against, the ring will not be
complete uiiIchh l)r. Felton is elected
to (JongfeBP. It is e.H tiliul to tlio
thud overthrow of tho Browu-Tram-
lut 11 combination, tlmt the matt who
led tho forlorn hope ugniust it shall
not ho cast aside like a sucked orange
and broken down in tho very hour of
his alreugtli. Every tuntt who would
lmvo voted for him had Trammell ro
muiued in tlio field, is in honor bound
to support him now. Unless Dr. Fel
ton choso voluntarily to retire, ho is
fairly entitled to tho sufrnges of tho
Democracy of the district. Ho ia thoir
candidate,* and his claims upon their
voles is more absolute than any
(luini fouuded upon any faucied par
ty discipline.
It would be perfidy to desert Dr.
Felton now. Nay, worse; 1 Lis defeat
would be a triumph for the Ring, and
will give them a new lease of power tiV
the district. It would deter lmm from
coming forward to oppose improper
candidates, or combat unfair noimuu-
lions in the future. No man will per
mit himself to l»o sttorificod at the bid
ding of tricksters and political con
spirators. Hence, if Dr. Felton is to
be forced down now, tho victory
achieved by tlio forced withdrawal of
Trammell will bo utterly barren, and
the Ru g will bo enabled leisurely to
rc-orguinzs and carry out, two years
heuce, the plan that has boon thwarted
this year. —Atlanta A’< w.i,
