Senatorial Convention Called
A convention to nominate a can¬
didate for state senator, ‘0 repre¬
sent the 27th senatorial district,
composed of the counties of Wal¬
ton, Oconee, Clarke, Newton, and
Rockdale, is hereby called to meet
in Monroe, Georgia, on Friday,
July 17th, at 1 o’clock, p. m.
G. C. Selman,
Chairman Senatorial Committee.
Death ot Gen. 1 oung.
Gen. Pierce M. B. Young, our
minister to Guatemala, is dead.
He died in New York on Mon
day.
Gen. P. M. B. Young was one
of the most gallant and dashing
cavalry officers during the war
that went out from Georgia.
Since the war he has filled many
places of honor and public trust,
and was, at the time of his death,
minister to Guatemala.
He returned to New York, on
his way home, a few weeks ago,
but was prostrate with disease,
and died on Monday last.
His remains were brought to his
home at Cartersville, Ga., for in¬
terment.
The Late Heavy Rains
The rains in this section last
week were the heaviest that have
fallen here in years.
It began raining Tuesday and
continued until Wednesday fore¬
noon at a fearful down-pour, flood¬
ing the whole country, and swell¬
ing the streams to a higher water¬
mark than they have been before
in several years.
Much damage has been done to
the crops, lands and bridges by the
high water, especially to the crops
in the bottom lands near the
stream^, where they have been
overflowed and swept away.
Several washouts occurred on
the M. G &. A. railroad, and the
trains were delayed sometime, but
all were soon repaired, and trains
were moving as usual.
The Big Bicycle Races
The big bicycle races, which
were arranged for Friday afternoon
were promptly run according to an¬
nouncement.
They attracted a large crowd ol
citizens, among them being many
ladies.
The time made by all was fairly
good, but in justice to Mr. Otis
Ogletree, who was one of the best
wheelmen in the contest, it is
proper to state he lost the race on
account of an accident to his wheel.
Following are the names of the
winners and the time they made in
the five mile race :
TIME.

efit of $2,000 to the families of its

The man who bolts the nominee of his par¬

It is a noble trait of the human character

Mrs. R. U. Thomason, of Madison, and

Edwards’ family, on Monticello street.
The “Swamp Angel,” Marion, says he is a

Rev. R. J. Bigham was with his Covington

county during the week. Mr. Ellington is an
old Newton county boy, but has been con¬

many years, and has become one of the high
officials of that great railway system.
The “Fellows” up in New York, who claim
to be the “Flower” of democracy in the em.
pire state, didn’t swing the Chicago conven¬
tion away from its moorings, or turn the del
uging tide of silver from its legitimate and
proper channel. In fact, they were not in it
yery much to speak ot. They may bolt as in¬
dividuals, but they will lead a very forlorn
hope if they do.
Michigan elected silver delegates to their
state convention to select delegates to the
Chicago convention, but thegoldbugs captured
the convention and selected gold delegates to
Chicago. But the Chicago convention turned
out the goldbugs and seated the silver delega¬
tion, which contested the goldbug delegation.
So Michigan’s vote was cast for silver at Chi
cago. This looks like “he who laughs last
laughs best.
Miss Ida E. Edwards, the beautiful and
charming daughter of Judge and Mrs. E. F.

The happy couple left immediately after the
ceremony for their new home in South Caro¬
lina, bearing with them the fondest hopes of
their friends for a long and happy union of
wedded bliss.

A Pathetic Incident.
One of the most pathetic and
touching incidents that occurred
during the recent reunion of con¬
federate veterans at Richmond,
was that which took place on the
line of march, as the great proces¬
sion was moving out from the city
to the park, where the laying o i
the corner stone of the Jefferson
Davis monument was to take
place.
As the procession moved along,
the streets were lined on either
side with a perfect wall of inter¬
ested spectators, composed largely
of ladies and children, who cheered
the old veterans as they passed, by
the waving of handkerchiefs, flags,
Danners, bouquets, and other evi¬
dences of sympathy and encour¬
agement.
In the line of veterans was the
tattered and bullet-riddled battle
flag of the old 3d Ga. regiment,
proudly born by Mr. R.jW. Bagby,
of Covington, who was the color
bearer of the 3d Ga. regiment, as¬
sisted by Messrs. J. M. Levy, C.
C. Epps, Edmund Horton, T. C.
Haralson, S. H. Starr, J. E. Pitts,
Oliu Pitts, Pierce Loyd, Capers
Dickson, W. H. Loyd, and others,
when the following incident oc¬
curred, which touched the hearts
of every one who witnessed it, and
which we find recorded in the
Richmond Times, of July 3d :
A pathetic scene,
<« One of the most pathetic incidents in the
big parade occurred as Company II, of the
Third Georgia Veterans, was passing Mr. F,.
D. Christian’s residence, on West Franklin
street. .,
This organization had their old battle-flag,
bearing the following inscription : “Third
Georgia Regiment, Malvern Hi!) to Appo
mattox. 1861 to 1865.” As this body of
veterans passed Mr. Christian’s residence an
old, gray-haired lady stepped from the crowd,
and addressing the color-bearer, asked him to
lower his standard. He did so, and she rev -
erently raised the bullet-riddled flag to her
lips, saying : 4 * My boy was killed under this
flag at Malvern Hill, and he was my only
child."
The old standard bearer thrice saluted her
with the colors, and every veteran lifted his
hat. It was a pathetic incident.”
Many people know their neigh¬
bors better than they know them¬
selves.

Majority for democracy 72
In the above estimate for democ¬
racy the following states may pos¬
sibly be classed as doubtful :
West Virginia, 6 ; Kansas, 10 ;
Oregon, 4, making 20 votes, which
would still leave the democrats a
good, clear majority.
