.DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.
Correct Text of the Declaration of Princi
ples Adopted at Cincinnati.
The democrats of the United States,
in convention assembled, declare :
1. We pledge ourselves anew to the consti
tutional doctrines and traditions of the dem
ocratic party as illustrated by the teachings
and example of a long line oi democratic
statesmen and patriots, and embodied in the
platlonn of the last National Convention of
the party.
2. Opposition to centralization and to that
dangerous spirit of encroachment which tends
to consolidate the power* of all the depart
ments in one, and thus to create, whatever the
form of the government, a real despotism. No
sumptuary iaws; separation of church and
state for the good of each; common schools
fostered and protected.
3. Home rule; honest money, consisting of
gold and silver and paper convertible into
coin on demand; the strict maintenance of the
public faith, state and national, and a tariff
lor revenue only.
4. The subordination of the military to the
civil power*, and a genuine anti thorough re
form of the civil service.
5. The right to a free ballot is a right pre
servative of all rights, and must and shall be
maintained in every part of the United States.
C, The present administration is the repre
sentative ot a conspiracy only, and its claim
of right to surround the ballot-boxes with
troops and deputy marshals, to intimidate and
obstruct the election, and the unprecedented
use ol the veto to maintain its corrupt and
despotic powers, insult the people anti imperil
their institutions.
7. We execrate the course of this adminis
tration in making places in the civil service a
reward for political crime, and demand a re
form by statute which sha 1 make it forever
impossible for a defeated candidate to bribe
his way to the seat Of a usurper by billeting
villains upon the people.
8, The gre*t fraud ol 1870-77, by which, upon
a false count of the electoral votes of two
states, the candidate defeated at the polls de
clared to he president, and for the first time in
American history the will of the peonle was
set aside under a threat of military violence,
struck a deadly blow at our system of repre
sentative government. The democratic party,
to preserve the country from the horrors of a
civil w T ar, submitted lor the time in firm and
patriotic laith that the people would punish \
this crime in 1880. This issue precedes and
dwarfs every other. It imnoses a more sacred
duty upon the people than ever addressed the
consciences of a nation of freemi n.
0. The resolution of Samuel J. Tilden not
again to be a candidate for the exalted place
to which lie was elected by a majority of his
countrymen, and from which lie was excluded
by the leaders of the republican party, is re
ceived by the democrats of the United States
with deep sensibility, and they declare their
confidence in his wisdom, patriotism and in
tegrity unshaken by the assaults ol the com
mon enemy; and they further assure him that
he is followed into the retirement he has cho
sen for himself by the sympathy and respect
of his iellow citizens, who regard him as one
who, by elevating the standard ot public mor
ality and adorning and purifying the public
service, merits the lasting gratitude of his
country and his party.
10. Free ships and a living chance for Am
erican commerce upon the seas, an* on the
land no discrimination in favor of transporta
tion lines, corporations and monopolies.
11. Amendment of the ißiirliiigamo treaty;
no more Chinese immigration, except for trav
el, education and foreign commerce, and it
even carefully guarded.
12. Public money and public credit forpublic
purposes solely, and public laud for actual
settlers.
la. The democratic party is the friend of la
bor and the laboring man, and pledges itself
to protect him alike against the cormorants
and the commune.
14. We congratulate the country upon the
honesty and limit ol a democratic congress
which has reduced the public expcndlttues
$100,000,000 a year; upon the continuation of
prosperity at home, and the national honor
abroad, and above all upon the promise ol such
a change in the administration of the govern
ment as shall insure ns genuine and lasting
reform in every department of the public
service.
—Gen. Toombs’ Kimball house
speech had a double-back-aetion-war*
ranted-to cut-in-the-eye-wish-we-had
not-called-liira-out effect on the Nor
wood crowd. Instead of denouncing
Colquitt, the general took up the
charges one by one and either de
nounce:! them as false or approved
the governor’s action in everything
except the appointment of ev Gov.
UNITED STATES SENATOR.
While the gubernatorial excitement
is running high, the people should
not forget that they are soon to elect,
not directly but by their representives
a more important officer than gover
nor-one in which not only the peo
ple of Georgia, but the people of
these United States are interested.
We allude to the United States sena
tor to be elected by the next legisla
ture —the legislature soon to be elect
ed by the people. The most promi
nent candidate for the position is
ex-governor Jos. E. Brown. There
are other lesser lights, such as Gen,
A. It. Lawton, ex-governor James
M. Smith, Hon. A. O. Bacon, etc.,
who are anxious to serve the people
in a senatorial capacity, and will,
perhaps, knowing their inability to
make anything like a respectable
race against Brown single-handed,
unite to defeat him. In fact the
light has already been begun on
Brown, and many hard things are
being said about him in the guber
natorial contest simply for the pur
pose of defeating him for the senate.
Whatever may be said about Joe
Brown’s course directly after the
war, justly or unjustly, it is a suffi
cient reply to say that the people of
the state adopted the course recom
mended by him, and by so doing
brought peace and prosperity to
Georgia, and that she at once became
and is to-day the banner democratic
state of the south.
Brown is beyond question the most
eminently qualified man in the state
for senator. Intelectuaily, he is the
equal if not the superior of any man
in the United States, and during the
short space of ten days in the senate,
lie placed himself in the front rank
alongside of the ablest senators of the
country. With an indomitable will,
a financial ability scarcely, if ever,
equalled and a political foresight al
most marvelous, he is able to do and
will do more for Geoigia, more for
the south, and more for the whole
country, than any other man in Geor
gia could possibly do.
If the election for United States
senator were submitted to the people
to-day, we have no doubt that Joe
Brown would get a large majority
of the popular vote. But as the sen
ator is elected by the legislature, the
people are not permitted vote direct
ly in the election, but through their
representative in the legislature.
That the will of the people should
be carried ou| by the legislature in
electing a United States senator to fill
the vacancy caused by the resigna
tion of Senator Gordon, is conceded
by all sensible, candid, honest men,
but the question—the all-important
question—that arises here is, Will the
legislature carry out that will? They
may or may not be do it. The peo
ple have it in their power to take it
into their own hands and have it
done as they may direct; and again,
it they see proper to do so they can
neglect it and leave chance to decide.
If in the election for representatives,
which is to take place on the Gth of
next month, the candidates are not
required to let the people know how
they stand on the senatorial question,
and the people themselves do not ex
press their preferences in a decisive
way, how are the members elected to
know who is the choice of the people,
or the people to know whether the
members will vote for the man whom
the people prefer? If such a course
is pursued by the people the senato
rial election will be left to chance,
and the legislature may or may not
carry out the will of the people in
electing the senator.
There is, however, no good reason
for any uncertainty about the sena
torship, and there ought to be none.
There is a way to get a fair expression
on the question, and we believe it
ought to be done. The will of the
people should be fairly and fully ex
pressed, and then carried out. The
isue should be made and let the peo
ple speak out. The most important
act of the next legislature, perhaps,,
will be the election of a United States
senator. Governor Brown is before
the people as a candidate for that
office, and the people are either for
or against him. If they are for him
they should express themselves; and
if they are against him, let them say
so. The only opportunity the peo
ple will have of voting on this ques
tion, and that will be an indirect
way, is on- the 6th of next month
when they cast their votes for mem
bers of the legislature; and the only
way they can vote on this question
intelligently is to know how the can
didates stand for senator, and then
cast their, votes for the man who will
support the man of their choice.
Ihe people of Bartow county and
every county in the state should call
upon the candidates for the legisla
ture to express their preferences for.
senator, and then vote for the men
whose views but Accord with theirs.
This seems to us to be fair and right,
and if done the will of the people will
be expressed at the ballot box and
the legislature wi'l only have to car
ry out the will thus expressed when
they Come to elect a senator.
GOOD NEWS.
Good news corae3 from far-off
Maine. The fusionists have carried
the state. Blaine is mad and says
democratic money did the work. If
this*is true, it is one time that demo
cratic money triumphed over radical
rascality. We are glad the democrats
had the money', and are gladder still
that they had the liberality to spend
it, for it was spent in a noble cause.
CONGRESSIONAL.
This is a day of “skillet totin’”
and the candidates for congress in
the seventh district are doing their
part of it.
Dr. Felton is “going it alone” and
woking hard for the “dear people,”
and at the same time looking after
the interest of his dear self. The
doctor says he feels confident of his
election, but his hurrying to and fro,
and his nervous, anxious looks indi
cate a different state of affairs.
Col. Clements is moving along qui
etly, and also seems confident of his
election. Reports from the upper
counties say that they are almost
solid for him. Col. Clements will
visit Bartow county soon, and then
we will hear and sec more of him.
The Rome Tribune gives the fol
lowing account of his speech deliver
ed iu Rome last Saturday: “Yester
day the democratic nominee for con
gress, Mr. J. C. Clements, addressed
the people of Rome at the city hall.
The hall was filled to its utmost cap
acity, and the speaker delivered one
of the best and most forcible address
es that has been heard for a long time.
It was polished, forcible and full of
logical reasoning—just that kind of a
speech which will make votes wher
ever it is heard. Mr.Clement’ friends
are sanguine of his success, notwith
standing the fact that his opponent
is ‘making hay while the sun shines.’
From this time forward the canvass
will be lively.”
—Norwood is still hoarse.
—The “convict catechism” died of
its own corruption.
—The colored people are wheeling
into line for Colquitt.
—Colquitt is gaining votes rapid
ly in Bartow, and the prospects are
now that he will carry the county.
—After the campaign is over Mr.
Norwood should get his campaign
orators together and start and ice
factory.
—Senator Brown, it is stated, will
leave in a few days for Indiana, to
stump that state for Hancock and
English.
Judge Logan E. Bleckley, one of
the ablest and purest of the public
men in Georgia, has taken the stump
for Gov. Colquitt.
—Tiiere will be a killing frost on
the Gth day of October next, that
will wipe mit Tommie Norwood and
the “gallant minority.”
—A letter from a subscriber in
Cherokee county says that county
will give Colquitt eight hundred ma
jority.— Cedartown Advertiser.
—All the candidates for the legis
lature in this county are said to be
for Joe Brown for United States sen
ator. Is this so gentlemen? The
county is for him.
—The Hancock people of California
are sweeping that state with a boom
i of enthusiasm that finds no stopping
place. It is under the auspices of the
“Hancock Blue and Gray Legion,”
and they are going it wild.
—The freezing eloquence of the
“patriotic speakers” of the “gallant
minority” lias not only cooled the ar
dor of the “Norwood patriots iu
Bartow county, but has lowered the
temperature of the weather several
degrees, aud now a killing frost is
imminent.
—?Mr. W, J. Collins, superintend
ent of the pauper farm iuforni3 us
that one of the paupers, Lucy Felton,
(col) died Tuesday morning. He al
so says the general health of the
paupers is good and reports the farm
iu goodcoudiditiou. There are now
sixteen paupers on the farm.
—Ex-governor James M. Smith is
against Brown for the senate, simply
because he wonts to be senator him
self; and he is against Colquitt for
governor simply because he appoin
ted Brown senator instead of him.
The ex-governor will soon find out
that tho people care nothing for lii3
personal grievances.
—Uncle Johnathan Noreross with
his ‘Thirty thousand white radicals”
tried to force the republican conven
tion to endorse Mr. Norwood, but
the colored brethren were too sharp
for him, and he failed. He is now
trying to get Freeman to run as an
independent radical candidate for
governor, in order to draw the col
ored vote from Colquitt, but in this
ho is not likely to succeed. The col
ored vote is almost solid for Col
quitt and no Korwood-Norcross
trick can take them from him.
—Norwood heads the “gallant mi
nority” of the democratic party, and
Noreross is the leader of the “uncon
querable minority” of the republican
party. If they decide to unite in or
der to make each other respectable,
we suggest that they be known by
the Nor wood'-Norcross-Cross wood-
Wocdcross gallant unconquerable
minorities.
—The following extracts are much
further from the truth than the fel
low was when he swore the horse
was sixteen feet high ; and if they
are fair samples of the accuracy of
the two journals from which they
are taken, Governor Colquitt’s ma
jority in the state will not be less
than 80,000: It is generally conced
ed that Colquitt will carry the 7th
district by a handsome majority.
The race in Bartow county will be
close. But hear these wise acres:
“Bartow county will give Nor
wood 1,800 majority.”— Post Appeal .
“The seventh district will give
Norwood 15,000 majority.”— Phono
graph.
MR. NORWOOD’S DEATH BLOW.
[Constitution.]
The candidacy of Mr. Norwood
condemned to overwhelming defeat
from its inception —received its death
blow in the failure of the attempt to
.secure for it the indorsement of the
republican convention.
It has been known for some time
that a desperate attempt would be
made to have the republican conven
tion indorse Mr. Norwood, and that
prominent men have been working
to that end. All intelligent observers
have known from the first that with
out this indorsement Mr. Norwood’s
candidacy was a dismal farce. Gov
ernor Colquitt had already demon
strated that he was the overwhelm
ing choice of the white people in the
democratic primaries. lie carried
nearly two-thirds of the primaries
against the combined strength of four
men, either one of whom is stronger
and more available than Mr. Nor
wood. It was not to be hoped there
fore, that Mr. Norwood, weaker than
either of the four, could reverse an
overwhelming verdict of the demo
crats, already recorded in favor of
Governor Colquitt against the four
1 combined—especially since Governor
Colquitt has been greatly strengthen
ed by the remarkable occurrences
since that race.
Clearly then the only hope for Mr.
Norwood was that the solid republi
| can vote might be secured to him.
The plan to capture this vote culmi
nated in an open attempt before 1 the
republican convention, led by the
! venerable Mr. Noreross, who, re
-1 membering his own fate when op
posing Governor Colquitt four years
ago, felt a sympathy tor Mr. Nor
wood. The resuit of that attempt to
j bolster the failing cause has been
written in these columns. It was re
ceived with shouts of indignation and
laughter—was opposed by every
| speaker who followed finding not a
! single advocate and was finally ta
bled by a vote of 72 to 9. Thus
ended the attempt to bag the repub
| lican Vote for Mr. Norwood—and
thus perished the last ray of hope of
a candidacy received in blindness
and folly, headed by a weak, ambi
tious man, and doomed from its
birth to sorrow and tribulation.
GEN. GORDON~TnD HIS ASSAIL
ANTS.
[ Bossier (La.) Banner.]
Georgians ought to realize that
General Gordon is not their exclusive
property, but that his reputation is
dear to all those now surviving who
i once “wore the gray.” People that
do not live in Georgia will not read
ily listen to or credit, any charges
against him, and those who assail
him will likely be condemned by the
country at large. To put the point
sharply : Georgia ought to honor her
most eminent, and, so far as the
world judges, her most deserving
citizen, for if General Gordon cannot
he trusted, people might come to the
conclusion there was very little in
the state worthy of regard by honest
men.
MURDER WILL OUT.
Yesterday Mr. U. C. Ellis, formerly
au old Homan, but now a resident of
Paris, Texas, informed us that he had
just turned over to the proper author
ities in Cherokee county, Ala., two
prisoners, Jim and John Thompson,
who, two years ago murdered a man
by the name of Firestone, in the
above named county. The prisoners
were arrested in the Chickasaw Na
tion. The father of the murdered
man accompanied Mr. Ellis and the
prisoners to Alabama, and the mur
derers are now in jail at Centre.—

PAYING THAT FEE WITHOUT
AN APPROPRIATION.
[Columbus Times.]
The late letter —that bitter partisan
letter of ex-Judge Warner, in which
he speaks of Gov. Colquitt as “clutch
ing” the state’s money and taking it
from the vaults of the treasury to
p:iy exorbitant lawyers fees, and
which had given anew vim to those
who have swung this cudgel over
the governor’s head with such an
exultant relish, will lose a little of
its force with intelligent men when
they are reminded with the supreme
court of Georgia—lß Georgia, 661
had declared to be the law on that
subject. This is the head-note: “Au
attorney for the Central bank, to
whom the State of Georgia is indebt
ed for fees, has the right to retain in
his hands money sufficient to pay his
claim.”
If this is law, what becomes of
Judge Warner’s notion that the at
torney must first place the money
into the treasury and then petition
the legislature for liis pay? Again,
in the same opinion. Bumpkin,
Judge, p. G 64, in speaking of the at
torney’s claim against the state says:
“Had it been passed upon by the
legislature, or by the governor , the
law having clothed him with power of
employing counsel and paying (heir
fees , there would be an end of the
business.”
The Constitution very pointedly
asks, “If this be law, what becomes
of the statement that the governor
has no such right ?”
We are sorry Judge Warner wrote
that letter, It was unworthy of him
in every sense ; and it is a grievous
sight to see him, in the closing days
of a long and useful life, permit a
party bitterness hardly to be looked
for outside of a cross road circle, to
get the better of his dignity.
