Carlton on the Stump.
On last Saturday, agreeable to appoint
ment, the Hon. 11. 11. Carlton, of Athens,
spoke to a large crowd of the voters of this
county, in the Court House, at this place.
Notwithstanding the fact that he was suf
fering from a severe cold, which made it
physically painful for him to speak, he enter
tained his audience for one hour and a half
upon the important issues before the people.
His attack upon the platform of the Indepen
dent candidate was a grand success. lie sue
ceeded in showing its absurdities and incon
sistencies to the people most conclusively.
Taking up part after part, he fairly demon
strated to the crowd the fact that it was a
miserable attempt to catch the votes of the
unwary, and had not the least foundation,
lie exposed Mr. Speer fully in his attempt to
manipulate the primary meeting of t ie Dem
ocrats of Clarke county. llis plea about re
form in the basis of representation he showed
was altogether remote from the facts in the
case, and produced the report of the Comp
troller-General to show that the counties
above the Air-Line should have more votes
than they now have in the Convention.
He concluded by appealing to the voters
of the District to stand by the Democracy
now in its trying hour of need, and went on
to show that the Independent movement was
a part of the Radical scheme to break up the
solid South ; that the Republicans were aware
that it was their only chance of success.
The speech made capital for Billups, and
was well received by all who heard it, and
will help to roll up the majority for Billups.
Clarkesboro’ Items.
Mr. Editor :—The noted business man in
this section is Mr. E. M. Holiday. llis talent
and business tact is excelled by none. Al
most every man, woman and child in Clarkes
boro’ knows Mr. Holiday, and they know that
what I have said of him is true. This season,
up to 12 o’clock, October 14th, he had ginned
248 bales of cotton. Everything about him
is in order, and lie proposes to do business in
bis line in as good order as any man. lie is
useful in his community, and we all appreci
ate his many accommodating acts. As to his
sons, we can say no more than this, that Mr.
Holiday sboul feel proud of them, for Jack
son county has no nicer boys. With them
you will find that genteel young gentleman,
Mr. Jimmy Wills.
As to politics, our neighbors are friendly
on this subject. We think that if wc should
differ somewhat, that is no cause for any un
kind feelings whatever.
Most respectfully, A Citizen.
THE DEMOCRACY VINDICATED!
Slander Hurled Back in the Traducers
Teeth 1
A large crowd assembled in the Court
House, at this place, on last Wednesday, to
hear the vindication of the champion of De
mocracy.
Col. Billups started off by saying that a few
months ago the Democratic party had, accord
ing to time honored usage, assembled and
appointed a standard-bearer ; that it was a
distinguished honor to he called upon to rep
resent this party, who depend upon nothing
less than principles for its success ; that he
had now been to all the counties in the Dis
trict, except Oconee, and this county was all
right, and would give him a majority ; that
he had good news to bring them from the
Northern counties, and unless their most
prominent and influential citizens were badly
mistaken, lie would get a handsome majority
up there. Said that he had discussed princi
ples all through the campaign, and that he
lid not think the success of the party depend
ed upon his persuing any other course ; be
sides. he had never been taught to use slander
and abuse, and would not attempt to learn it
at this late day. And now. although he had
been assailed in a most abusive and violent
manner, he did not propose to reply in the
same way ; that lie had never been taught the
use of such language; that lie did not think
the necessities of the party required that he
should slander his opponent.
He then proposed to go into the charges in
detail, and he was prepared to meet each one,
and that he courted the strictest investiga
ion. He first alluded to the Bullock Judge
ihip, and the charge that he knew he would
have to take the irou-elad oath if he obtained
that office. That he ever applied to Bullock,
in any way whatever, for the office of Judge,
ie declared most positively to be false. That
le would have to take the iron-clad oath be
bre lie could fill the office, he said no one had
jver heard of a State officer being required to !
take this oath, lie then alluded to such men
as Joe Brown, Schley, Warner and Reese,
and asked if any one supposed that these
men c mid take that oa'li.
He said that he did not. understand what
hev meant by the wool hat boys; he had
icver hear 1 of such a distinction in his young
days ; that then, a i 1 now. all men were alike
to him, if they were lion >si; the Indepen
dents must he trying to divide the people into
classes, according to the hats they wore.
That he was ever defeated by his overseer
he denied, and pronounced it a most slander
ous lie. Said that they claimed to be the
friends of the laborin' man, and yet they
tried to cast odium upo i him by saying that
a man who was no more or better than an
overseer had beaten him, thus trying to make
it appear that to be an overseer was dishon
orable.
He alluded to the charge that he had been
beaten for the office of County School Com
missioner by a colored man. which he de
nounced as a lie out of whole cloth, as he
never was a candidate for such an office.
Said he did not see why they were circulating
this, except to show that anybody could beat
him, and thus they cast insinuations upon
the colored people, when they profess to be
their best friends.
lie alluded to the charge that he had said
that lie did not want any po >r folks or negroes
to vote for him. This he pronounced as ab
solutely false. lie said that he did want
every man who was in favor of good govern
ment, whether lie was white or black, to vote
for him. and that if he went to Congress he
should act as the representative of all.
He then referred to the fact that free edu
cation had been promised to the colored peo
ple, Said that the new Constitution, as made
by the Democrats of this State, fully provi
ded for that, and that it was a question with
which the general government had nothing
to do.
He then referred to the two recent charges
as to his settling his property upon his wife
to escape paying his debts, and settling an
eighteen hundred dollar claim of an orphan
girl for seventy-five dollars, both of which lie
declared to be most positive falsehoods, lie
then went into detail as to the deed and the
settlement, and explained them in such a
manner that not even his worst enemies could
have the hardihood to deny the truthfulness
of his explanation. lie showed that these
charges were made by perverting facts, when,
if any one would take the trouble, they could
have as easily found out the truth about the
matter.
lie then referred to his candidacy, and the
principles of the party of which he is the ex-1
ponent. lie showed up the inconsistency of
Mr. Speer's platform, read Ben Hill’s letter;
and part of an article of Wade Hampton’s
upon Independents, and wound up in a fine j
and stirring appeal to the young men and
voters of the Ninth to stand by true Democ
racy. Col. Billups’ conclusion was as fine rs
wc have ever heard from Speer, or any body
else, and ranks him amongst the orators of
the day.
Holly Spring Items.
Editor Forest News :—Again permit me
to give yon a few more items from this part
of the District.
Nothing of note has transpired up in this
part of late. Everybody has been so very ;
busy gathering their crops, that little or noth-;
ing else have demanded their attention.
Crops are turning out far beyond our most
sanguine expectations. We did not for awhile
think that more than on-e-half of a crop of
cotton would be realized, but a pretty fair
crop will be made in this section. A suffici
ency of corn is made to supply the demand
of the District. I think. Air. Editor, that' if
we will be a little economical, we can pay our
debts and have a surplus left. Some of our
people have had to buy provisions on time,
and at the low price of cotton it will make
some of us “June” to make tongue and
buckle meet. But we are in hopes that next
year we can live independent of provision
dealers.
We expect to give Joel A. Billups a good
vote in this District, on the f>th of November.
It is to be regretted that there are some men
in our District that are loudly calling for
Speer. We are in hopes that they may see
the error of their ways, and on the day of the
election cast their votes for Joel A. Billups,
and after having done so, thev may go on
their way rejoicing from a feeling sense of
having discharged a duty they owe to their
countr}' and to themselves.
We learn from a reliable author that we are
to have a Town one mile above Holly Spring.
It is being rapidly built up, consisting of a
store, blacksmith shop, boot and shoe shop,
hotel and lock-up. The name of the Town is
Wallaceville, Hancock street, Segars Hotel
and nothing to eat. We are not informed
whether or not the Town is incorporated, but
think that Jim Wallace is the Marshal and
Oatman keeper of the lock-up. Bill Bates
keeps the hotel furnished with ’possum fresh
and fine.
Jim C. says that Frank K. is going in for
a big crop of dog- fennel next year. No doubt
he can get a good price for it. as tan bark is
getting pretty scarce about the tan yards.
Brother Frank Rutherford will not be at
Holly Spring on the 2d, on account of the
Quarterly Meeting at Harmony Grove, but
will be there on Friday before the 2d Satur
day in November, which will be his last round
for this year.
Our Lodge of Good Templars lias nearly
gone by the board. It is nothing more than
we expected. We just threw open our door
to any and every one that could raise fifty
cents. We need not expect for a house to
stand unless built of good, sound material.
So nothing more at present. W. P. N.
Ilulh/ Spring, Oct. 1 2th, 1878.
GcPWe know somebody that rejoices ex
ceedingly over the fact that all of his kin
folks are not going to leave town next year,
and then we know of another that is sad be
cause some of them are going to leave.

Extra iiiaiiiliyy to Ualarial BiilVcliou.
Persons whose blood is thin, digestion weak and
liver sluggish, are extra-liable to the attacks of
malarial disease. The most trifling exposure may,
under such conditions, infect a system which, if
healthy, would resist the miasmatic taint. The
only way to secure immunity from malaria in lo
calities where it is prevalent, is to tone and regu
late the system by improving weakened digestion,
enriching the blood, and giving a wholesome im
petus to biliary secretion. These results are ac
complished by nothing so effectively as Hostettcr’s
Stomach Bitters, which long experience has proved
to be the most reliable safeguard against fever and
ague and kindred disorders, as well as the best
remedy for them. The Bitters are. moreover, an
excellent invigorant of the organs of urination,
and an active depurent. eliminating from the blood
those acrid impurities which originate rheumatic
ailments.
