JOHN W. WOITUiID, %m. | SENATOBI \L CONVENTION. CAT;rrr.tviu>R, Ga., August 5 ‘ 470. iVhukkas, A Senator to represent the '43d Senatorial district in the General Assembly is to be elected by lav in October next: and, Whekeas, There is no Executive Com mittee of said Senatorial District to provide I lor the convening of u convention of the Do i liiocraey of said District, to the end, therefore, • that a convention of the people may be had, We, the livin': •r* of the C'-ngreseional | District Comiiiittce for the counties of Floyd, 1 Bartow and Chattooga, do recommend that a j convention beheld on Saturday, the 9th day j < f September, ISIO, a: 11 o’clock, a. m. t in Kingston, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Senator. Wo Lope each county will be represented | by lull and able delegations, as questions ci importance will come before the Convention JOHN W. WOFFORD, NATHAN BASS, V. V. CLEGHORN MB. JOHNSON’S I.ETTKK, There is j gooti deal of dissatisfac tion in this section in regard to the course or direction given the letter of Hon. 11. V. Johnson in the con- j vention last week. Many of the friends ot that gentleman feel that, j after they had stood hy him so iaith- | fully, they might have been ad- j vised of his intended course before ! the convention met. The fact that the letter was written on the 24th ; nil,, more than a week before the j convention, and the main contents made known to the Colquitt caucus on the night of the Ist Inst, before it was made known to Mr. Johnson’s: and the further fact, that the exist ence of the letter was whispered in Atlanta even as early as Monday, are well calculated to cause the friends of Mr. Johnson to distrust that some sort of scheming by some body was practiced to win popularity upon the other side. Asa Johnson man, and one who first gave existence to the Johnson movement, and one, also, who did all in our power to give it force, and succeeded, almost, solitary and alone ir..til a late day in the campaign, we do not at all feel satisfied with the manner in which thenratter was dis posed of. Even while the Johnson caucus was in session on Tuesday night, and Johnson’s strength is said ! to have been over one hundred, and before that caucus ad come to any | conclusion as to future action, it is • . 1 that a. member of the Rich mond (Johnson) delegation, an iti tnc xxrrrjxmi‘tiuu,u3 mat tlie Johnson men had determined to go over in a body to Colquitt. There arc two things one of which til u\nl*l U !■ IT~ 1 * ill* son’s letter should have appeared in tlie press as soon as written, or his name after the reception of that let ter should never have even went to a caucus meeting of members of the convention. When a Johnson caucus had been called together, it was due to the friends of Mr. Johnson, those who were honest and sincere in their advocacy of his nomination, that a te.-l of strength should be made. The fact that a letter from Mr. Johnson was in hand absolutely de clining to go before a convention, and the holding of a caucus as if to see what could be done, and the surren der before a test could be made, was unjust to both Mr. Johnson and ins Hue friends, and an exhibition of what wo cannot conceive otherwise than as duplicity. Mr. Johnson had declined preremptorily. That end ed the matter so far as he was con cerned. Xo one had a right to use his name further, even as far back as a week previous, when he declared himself out of the race. We may be wrong, but we think the friends of Judge Johnson were uatlly treated by the Richmond dele gation. THE STATE SENATOKSmP. The contest for the senatorship in the forty-second district is between Chattooga and Fioyd, about which Bartow will have to come in as um pire when the decision is to be had. There being no executive committee for this senatorial district, the mem 1k rs of the Congressional executive ....... tirtrwraimes 2 ii this senatorial district recommend that a convention be held at Kingston on the 9th of September to make a sena torial nomination. We suggest that ten delegates from each coonty be selected to compose that convention, and that all the facts in regard to the claims of Chat tooga and Fioyd be there fairly and squarely set forth truthfully and honestly, and let a vote of the con vention decide which county is en titled to the sinatorship. That done, then let the county so entitled come forward with the can didate and let him be nominated in the spirit of unity and harmony. This is the only way in which this whole question can be settled. We hope every Democrat is iu favor of tho right. Aie we to have a nomination or a .ice light in Bartow for members of kRo Legislature and county officers I W' ‘‘ cn Vv ‘h tiie executive committee ” a, I 11 moling of the Democratic party to determine that question ? Well, who shall bethe Dera octatic nominee for Governor in l8 " ;j ■' We iutend*to be in time for our man. THE STATE DEMOCRATIC CONVEN TION. As The Express wont to press last week on Wednesday evening, the day of the State Democratic Con vention, we were only able to give a j telegraphic statement of the organi- I zation and the nomination for Gov- j ernor. We present this week, how ever, the proceedings as they were reported by the Atlanta Times. 1 hose are pretty full, excepting that the list of delegates are not given. It is enough to say that every county in {lie State was represented except one, and that it was ‘the fullest con vention assembled since the war, and exhibited a unanimity, considering all things, unparalleled in State con ventions. The truth is, the nomina tion was virtually the contest for Governor of the State, and the friends of the different aspirants had done all they could for their favorites. To the magnanimity of lion. 11. V. Johnson and his friends in with drawing from the field are the friends of Mr. Colquitt indebb-d for his nom ination by acclamation. Had they stood firm and unyielding, and had refused to go to Colquitt, and insisted upon the two-thirds rule as tho ulti mation of harmony, it is more than probable that Mr. Colquitt would not have secured the nomination. Un der these circumstances the Johnson men are as much entitled to the cred it of the nomination of Colquitt by aceiamation as were the immediate friends of the successful man them selves; and yet in the face of this fact the honors of the convention were slimly distributed among the Johnson men. Gen. Colquitt having secured the nomination for Governor, there will be no difficulty about his election. The importance of Democratic har mony in the Presidential contest will force the Democracy of the State to avoid divisions as detrimental to the cause of reform in the Federal gov ernment, which is of the greatest importance to the well being of the people of the whole country. We doubt now that there will be an in dependent candidate for Governor, as such a contingency might place a Radical in the executive chair, A WARNING TO JUDGE WRIGHT. There is a littlr Radical sheet pub lished in Atlanta as the Republican . It is edited by Mr. Jonathan Nor cross, a violent Radical politician who has nothing good to say of the .Southern people, lie is anxious for Judge Wright to run as an indepen dent candidate for Governor and says : Judge Wright, we will now take occasion to say is inferior in qualities for Governor to no man in the St ate, and should he stand iirrn to ii I pledge aiul do lii.s duty as a candidate for that high office, the Republicans wi’l not be at any loss as to which o! the two—Wright or Colquitt —to support.' Let wisdom and prudence pre vail on the lOili. That paper also says that — The dissatisfaction in the Demecratic ranks is too great to hold them together, unless they arc cemented by the absurd step of nomina ting a man on tho part of tho. Republicans. Tha t pa per says fur t h er— y•otirH tny t-Vi r> W*>w ♦>£ 9&V-, ocraey who are exceedingly gratified at the prospect of having Judge A. R. Wright as an independent candidate for Governor. These extracts go to show the pres —,it |/OTf/tJSVS T)l n.B TCTOTTTWrpArty of Georgia. We, as a Democratic journalist will not aid in the scheme of defeating the Democratic party, al though we are not altogether satis fied with tho Democratic situation. The hope of the Radicals to use Judge Wright, an honest man, and with whom we sympathise with much iu tho dissatisfaction in the Democratic party of Georgia, is to di vide our party and win the victory in the end for themselves. The Democratic is the party of the ! people. It is the duty of the people | to purify it of all that is wrong and I cast out the tricksters within its folds I as the worst enemies of the party, these properly disposed of and the party made to reflect the will of the | rank and tile, independents cannot ; exist under our name. As between Colquitt and an inde pendent, to be used by the Radicals, we cannot hesitate in ourchoice. Wo : therefore prefer tho former to tlie j latter, as the tool of Radicalism. CONSTITUTION AH CONVENTION. The Georgia Legislature and the | Democratic party are alike afraid to submit tne question of a constitu tional convention to the people. Last winter there was a clamor fora con vention from all parts of tire State, and yet eve.y attempt made to se- I care it met with defeat, and the ! Legislature adjourned without doing ! anything. | Last week the State Democratic convention refused t&becommitted on the subject, and the bpdv was precip i Ttateiy adjourned in the face of a reso lution before it demanding a con stitutional convention. Such was the haste in adjournment to prevent a | discussion on the subject that other : important business was omitted. Now, what we have to say to the people is that if they desire a’eonven ; tion they must elect members to the Legislature who will give it to them, j Ail sorts of arguments have been re ; sorted to as pretexts to stave off a | convention,nouo of which are worthy ■of attention. This is a matter the I people themselves must take hold of. | The politicians and office-seekers are afraid to make the issue. The greed for office makes cowards of many, | and they arc afraid to express any conviction or sentiment that has not already been made popular. The present constitution of Georgia has given an immense amount of lit igation to the people of the State. It -is the bastard offspring of Radical ism and is not the work of the peo ple, and the sooner ii can be substi tuted by a wholsome organic law the better it will be for tlie people. Let us by all means send men to tho next Legislature who are willing to hear the people on the subject. Why can’t we have a Til den and Ilendrk-k’s club in Cartersville? THE LATE CONTEST. The contest for the gubernatorial i nomination was a heated one, because it was virtually the election of Gov ernor. It was the pride of The Express that it supported a man for Governor whose ability, statesman ship and qualifications rendered his nomination one ‘’fit to be made.” ; For our efforts in'that behalf we j have nothing to take back, or to be sorry for. We were actuated by hon est convictions and solely iu the in- : terests of the people and the State. ! In politics we have never been nor new;’ will be actuated by any other motives. Neither a policician nor an office-seeker, we have always been free and untrammeled in our jour nalistic course. The election of any man to office would not benefit us a nickel, as w’e have no favors to ask of office holders or politicians. r lhe great aim of our life has been to pro mote the true interests of tho people. It is all the interest we have in polities or expect ever to have. For these reasons we have ever endeavor ed to jiromoto ond enforce the rule of the people and to secure the will of the people upon the true princi ples of self-government. This being the line of The Ex press, we have no regrets for its course in the late .contest; and now that tho decision is against us, we simply bow to w hat seams to be tho popular will It the incoming ad ministration is a successful one none \47!} J it - nrt nr A stand to it more unflinchingly. II Gen. Colquitt shall be instrumental in relieving the people of burden some taxation to any extent, we shall give him all the aid we can. If his administration is what we hope it will be, he will find no truer defender than The Express. The Express has been greatly assailed for its course by rampant partisans in the late contest, who, unable to meet it with argument, at tempted to weaken and destroy its influence. Their efforts have been unavailing, and The Express comes out unscathed and with an influence for good that is sought in more than one section of the State. It will ever be true to the people and to truth. THE CONGRESSIONAL CONVENTION. The executive committee ot the seventh congressional district held a meeting here last Saturday. We have not secured for publication the action of that, committee up to Tues day night. We looked to find it in the Atlanta papers, where all our of ficial notices first appear instead of in the district papers. We understand, however, that a congressional eon convention has been called to assem ble in Dalton on the 7th of Septem ber, and that is about ail we know at this present writing. We further understand the com mittee suggested a meeting of de’e • gates from the counties of tiie forty ' second senatorial district on the 9th j proximo at Kingston. J If wo should receive tiie official no i tioo tbf> tudion of tho wranniUefi m ' Lot it prune. I'ki Xcav York or i elsewhere, we small take pleasure in | giving it due prominence in The | Express. v zUzmUU. in* if lliixm far A put the question direct lo the editor of the Cartersville Express. It is rumored that you have written a lettei to one Or more gentle men of Chattooga county, idedging your sup port to apy pi;m who may be run in that coun ty for State Senator. Is it trueV We doubt and thorefore wish to know the facts, direct from Mr. Willingham liimselL— liohte Xetrs. We have said nothing of the kind, nor have we at any time or under any circumstances ever written a let ter addressed to any body in Chat tooga county. As far as the Sena torship is concerned, we have all the while been under the impression that Eloyd was entitled to the next; but, some time ago we promised a gentleman of Chattooga that any statement our friends desired to make in reference to the matter would firm j expression in the columns of The i Express. Such a statement will be | found in our paper to-day. We propose that tho counties of Bartow, Chattooga and Floyd send ten delegates to Kingston, on the 9th of September to make a senatorial nomination. As there is dispute be tween the two last named counties as to which I- entitled tothesenatorship, let all the facts be laid before that convention and a decision be arrived at according to the evidence pre sented. If this can be clone in the spirit of harmony, there will be no difficulty in settling the vexed question as to whether Chattooga or Floyd is enti tled to the senatorship. We make this proposition in the interest of Democratic harmony, and would like to hear from our contemporaries of the district on the subject. lion. B. 31. Hill ,in a private con versation with a number of gentle men here last Saturday, paid Hon. W. 11. Felton a high compliment us an attentive and faithful member of Congress. He is laborious and untir ing in his efforts to promote the in terests of iiis constituency, and stands high in Washington. Mr. Hill says this is tiie only district that has Iwo efficient members in Congress—the second being Mrs. Felton who is no less untiring in her efforts for the in terests of our people than her hus band. Nearly forty members of the press were together in Atlanta last week. They had two or three meetings, neither of which we attended owing to prior engagements. The first meeting we were not prepared to en joy; but the others we should have liked to attend very much. This was so much loss of enjoyment to us. We are only truly happy in a social way when we are with the brethren of the press. Blind men are employed as attendants in Japanese bathing establishments lor women K\i change. There must be a feeling of extreme delicacy on tho part of the blind men in such an arrangement, New Advertisements. Fair Warning—The Fast Call. 4 LL notes and accounts due S. F. MILAM i A.

THE EXPRESS, Cartcrsville? Ga* - By C. H. a Willingbuii. Tie Handsomest and Lanest Weekly in Cherokee Georgia. OPPOSED TO ALL RINGS, CLIQUES AND COMBINATIONS. The Organ of the People. The Advocate and Defender ot|'the Interests of all Classes. Democratic to the Core. 1876. Prospectus. 1876. THE i:\TKE.SS, XTNDEIt the present marrptir*Lt, s fas* J growing into popularity as ts rapid) increasing circulation lolly attests; and if present ratio of increase continues, it will scol have tlie largest circulation of any weekly paper in the State. Coming to Cartersville under somewhat adverse circumstances, with false impressions made in advance of his coming, to his detriment, and finding the p i per nearly “run down,” the present proprietor feels himself under many grateful obligations to numerous friends for the aid they have given him in reviving this once popular pa per. These have given to its circulation an impetus which it is hoped vvili make it a power in this section of Georgia for good—for the building up of our material iutere-t --and for the promotion of the cause of true and nndefilod Democracy. Tlie Express M ill ever be found the 'true an unflinchiu riend of the People, tiie opponent of all cliques, rings or combinations, if there be any such organizations to deceive, mislead or to thwart the popular will, in all political mat ters. It will be the aim of the editor to re flect popular sentiment upon all public ques tions, when that sentiment is true to free gov ernment and public liberty. Tlie Express, however, will oppose all attempts to pervert the true principles of the Democratic party and seek to inculcate at all times and under all circumstances, the great and cardinal principles which underlie and form the basis of all free government. Opposed to all inno vations upon the principles of the Democ racy, The* Express W ill be found “now and forever,” a Dome* craticjournal of “the straightest sect” witlVut a shadow of turning cither to the right or left believing as we do, that the happiness of Lie people, and the prosperity of this country de pend upor. a restoration v' the old landmarks of our fathers—a retur-i * first principles, alone can retain to us fret gov ernment,and an honest administration < ; i, ; ; ..l i-ffairs ol tlie country. The Express will never omit any occasion to Kith the great advantage- of Cherokee Georgia, its aim will be to advance by ; 11 mean- in its power, the material prosperity <•>’ tin- -cction of Georgia, lavored as it i-. with a climate, the fincM in tnc world, with a t-ojl un.-iirpassed, and with agricultural and mineral r< rnrees unequalt <!—inhabited by an iiomo*t tl ! ’hrifty people, i telligent ami worthy of ; !l pi speri ty* To develop ii‘e>e sources ol wc.dtl.. rnd to make Cherokee Georgia tin-1 garden ot ot the country will be among the chief of this join mil. Tiie Express, therefore, appeals to an honest and discrimi nating public for that patronage which shall place it in our power, to present a good pa per, creditable to the State in which it is pub lished and a special pride to the people of Bar tow county. Rapidly overcoming tlie false and infamous, the weak and silly charge tnat this journal was to be, or is to be, or i* the or gan of a ring—an imposition on general intel ligence— Tlie Express will be found in the end a journal that will not stoop to subserviency in any form—that it is a free and honest paper that will rest its prosperity upon its own merits, and will never seek to build up itself by imploring sympa thy or by efforts to create false prejudice against others. If The Express cannot win popoular favor upon the ground of merit, the sooner it becomes extinct the better it will be for the popular good. There fore all who are willing to trust an honest pur pose and effort to present a respectable jour nal, true in its Democracy, true to the peopl ud true to right and justice, are respectfully to become subscribe! s to The Ca TEKSVILLE EXPKESS.
