secure tho right kind of delegates to tho
Gubernatorial Convention. In the Hon.
Rufus E. Lester,we have a candidate upon
whom all good Democrats, whether organ
ized or independent, can unite. While
he has remained faithful to tho organiza
tion, and has always fought corrupt men
and measures within the party linos, he
has been bold and outspoken against those
influences, which produced, if they did not
justify in depen dentism in certain sections
of Georgia. Whether truly or not, we do
not know, hut Representative Felton is
credited with having said “that he was
driven to independentism, becauseas con
ventions were organized in hisjdistrict, no
one except a tool of Jo! E.own could get
tho nomination for Congress.” Having
occupied tho position as above stated, and
with an unblemished record through a
political career of twelve years, Mr. Lester
is the only Democrat, wo know, who can
harmonize all elements of the party. If
by any misfortune Governor Colquitt
should receive the nomination, wo are sat
isfied that the party will be defeated at
the polls by any independent, who chooses
to make the race. It has been distinctly
asserted that if tho Governor does not secure
the nomination, ho will run independently.
If he does so, and ho has not denied this
charge in his numerous “explanations,"
it would make no difference to the Demoo
racy, with Lester as their standard hearer.
Let all true Democrats unite then and
elect Lester delegates in the primary con
ventions. Should it happen (of which
there are no present indications) that some
other worthy son of Georgia should be the
choice of the Convention, we know noone
who will acquiese more promptly and
cheerfully in the people’s verdict, or work
harder for tho success of tho ticket than
Rufus E. Lester.
CHIEF JIXTICE tV.tK.tKit AMS THE
GOVERNORSHIP.
We observe that Chief Justice Warner
has written a letter announcing to his
friends and the public that ho would not be
averse to become the nominee of tho Dem
ocratic party for Gov rnor of Georgia. It
is a laudable ambition, and the Chief Jus
tice, who has made a good judicial officer,
might make a good Governor. But we sub
mit,if Mr. Justice Warner is a candidate for
Gubernatorial honors,that ho ought to re
sign from tho bench. There is no principle
better established in our American views
of Government, than that a judge lias no
business with politics. It is based upon
the common sense reason,that he, who has
to decide upon the dearest interests,of per
sonal liberty, life and property, of the
whole people, should not put himself un
der the temptation to use tho powers of his
judicial office to reward liis political
friends or to punish his political enemies.
Whether he yields or not,his fellow citizens
will be under constant apprehension that
he umy, and tho influence of both the temp
tation and the apprehension is bad and cor
rupting. Wo hope that Judge Warner,for
whom we have a great esteem, will set a
good example to tho Judiciary of tho State
in this respect.
Wo are happy to say that tho lion. Ben.
H. Hill has not resigned. Mr. Ilill has
had his troubles during the past winter;
troubles which were well calculated to test
his norvo and manhood. Ho has come
through them, with those qualities unim
paired, and stands to-day higher in the
esteem of Georgians than he ever did be
foro. Many of those who could heretofore
see no one in the Senate but our warrior
representative, have recently reached the
conclusion that there is a civic courage as
well as a military, and that Mr. Hill is the
highest embodiment of the former, of
which we of the South now stand most in
need.
The Radical party is to-day the deadest
machine in this country, and the Chicago
Conveniton did the hilling. We have no
fears now as to who will he our next Pres
ident as we feci perfectly satisfied that th
nominoe of the Cincinnati Democratic
Convention will sweep the country from
one end to the other. The Radicals have
been playing a desperate game and they
are bound to loose by it.
President Hayes lias appointed upon
the recommendation of Governor Colquitt,
Col. W. T. Thompson, of the Savannah
News, and N. P. T. Finch, of the Atlanta
Constitution, ns Commissioners of the
State of Georgia to the International Ex
hibition to he held in New York in I$S3,
with Col. Wilhorforce Daniels, of Augusta,
and J. Monroe Ogden, of Macon, ns alter
nates.
Hon. James M. Scovell, in the New York
Times, says: “Greeley sent for me a week
after his wife died. I called. He put liis
hand on my shoulder, tears filled his eyes.
His first words were: ‘Why did the dem
ocrats nominate me at Baltimore if they
meant to betray me?” Poor Greeley.
Ex-Governor Joseph E. Brown, General
Gordon’s successor in the United States
Senate, is said to be the first millionaire
that the South has sent to Congress. He
is set down as worth throe millions, and
he made himself as well as his fortune.
Justice Field and Senator Bayard seem
to be gathering in all the Southern dole
gates while your Uncle Sammy Tilden is
taking care of the Northern States. Well,
the Gazette will support the nominee of
Cincinnati Convention.
If it takes the Radicals a whole week to
nominate candidates for President and
Vice President how long will it hike them
to elect their ticket J
W
t trade in the reevut sudden and mysteri
ous change of Senators, with the epithets
which head these remarks. Although th
tragic death of Col. Robert A. Alston has
been generally ascribed to the weakness
and vacillation of the Gov mor, in not or
dering Tie arrest of Cox at tho critical mo
ment, there is no doubt that poor Bob was
quite a pet and favorite with his Excel
lency, as well as of ex-Senator Gordon,
We believe that it was under Gov. Smith
that Alston secured tho position of Attor
ney for the State of Georgia, to collect a
large sum of money due the State by
the United States. At the time the mon
ey was pai l over to Gov. Colquitt by tho
Secretary of the Treasury, Alston was in
debted to the Stato of Georgia and a bank
rupt, and both of these facts were known
to our worthy Executive. But he paid Al
ston liis fee of many thousands of dollars,
all the same, and forgot we suppose,about
his indebtedness to the State. By so do
ing, lu: not only betrayed the interests of
the State most shamefully, but he also re
lieved Alston’s securities of their legal lia
bility on his bond, and thereby sacrificed
the 1;: it hope of the recovery of .the money
for the State.
Below we give the telegram to tho Sa*
vannah Morning News announcing the
decision of tho Supreme Court. The
News, ignoring the great claims of Mr.
Lester upon the p '>plo of the whole State,
and especially of . nthem Georgia, is len
ding all the weight of its influence to pro
mote tho success of the Brown-Colquitt
combination, which is an assurance that
the following dispatch, dated Atlanta,
Ga., June 2d, 1880, does not emanate from
tho Governor’s enemies:
“Iu tho suit of A. 11. Colquitt, Governor, against
Patrick Walsh and G. W. Adair, securieies of itobt,
A. Alston, as Public Printer, and in which judg
ment was given for $2,500 in favor of the State,the
Suj . omo Court has rendered a decision reversing
said judgment, upon the ground, chiefly, that the
Governor upon receiving the money from tho Uni
tod States Government, .ailed to pay the whole of
it into tho treasury, where, by law, it belonged.
That he retained an amount to be paid to Alston
as liis fee, said amount being more than Alston’s
indebtedness to the State, and Alston being known
to the Governor as insolvent, Tho Court holds
that tho payment of Alston’s claim against the
State by the Governor, without deducting tho
amount of Alston’s indebtedness to the Stato,
thereby increased the risk of Alston’s sureties
without their consent, and under tho Code releas
ed them from libility. The case goes bank to tho
Superior Court of DeKalb jfor anew trial under
these instructions,and ne.vss.triTqreHUlts in a ver
dict for the defendants and the loss to the State
ol the debt due from Alston.’’
We have searched the columns of our
esteemed cotemporary in vain for any ed
itorial comments upon the above decision;
but it is in order,for Governor Colquitt to
“explain” before another Atlanta Opera
House audience, a matter to which he
carefully abstained from alluding in
his late “defense.” There aro other mat
ters which wo shall bring up, from time
to time, which will call for further “vindi
cations” from His Excellency. In this in
stance, we hope for the sake of common
decency, that the Governor will not apply
the epithets to a coordinate branch of tho
government, which he has so generously
lavished upon the people of Georgia.
LESTEK FOR GOVERNOR.
The following is what the Dawson Jour
nal lias to say of Mr. Lester anil the Geor
gia Governorship: "The more we think
of the matter the i lore firmly are we con
vinced that the Hon. Rufus E. Lester, of
Savannah, is the proper man for the peo
ple of Georgia to make their next Gover
nor. He is emphatically the people’s can
didate; the politicians and wire-pullers are
not for him. If there is any ring of office
hunters in the state,he is clearly outside of
it. He was raised at the plow-handles,
and has risen to his present prominence
by his own industry and merits. There
is no chicanery, no cunning, no trickery
and no humbug about him, as all who
know him will tesitfv. He goes Btrright
along attending to his own business, serv
ing the people when they call for him,but
modestly waiting to bo called. Wo think
it fortunate, just at this time, that Georgia
had such a man, and fortunate that sho is
aware of the fact, and has her eyes upon
him. We are nit advocating Lester's
claims, h makes no claim upon the peo
ple. He is quiet, noiseless man of 6trictly
moral and temperate habits; modest as a
woman,and with manners as polished and
graceful as those of Chesterfield. In urg
ing him for Governor we are advocating
the claims of the people, those of
the ring-masters and wire-pullers. We
need, just now, a fresh untainted man,and
we believe* Rufus E. Lester is such a one.
We have studied the matter long and
closely. W o know most of the prominent
men of the state, and, among them all, we
can find none, in our opinion, better fitted,
in every way, to serve us than Col. Lester.
Then, with malice towards none but char
ity for all, and a sincere desire to see a
man of ability, firmness, unostentatious
morality, purity and cleanliness at the
head of our affairs, we, to-day, hoist the
name of Hon. Rufus E. Lester, of Chat
ham, as our choice for Govomor of the
State of Georgia.”
In speaking of Mr. Joel C. Harris’ forth
coming book, the Savannah News says
“UnMe Remus' book is in press, and will
shortly be issued by the Appletons in
handsome style, with copious illustrations
by Frederick S. Church. The artist has a
fine field for the display of his skill as a
designer and illustrator, and if he per
forms his part of the work with but half
the fidelity that characterizes our friend
Harris’ inimitable delineations of negro
character, the volume will have an im
mense success. Thousands in Georgia
are eagerly waiting for the appearance o f
Uncle Remus Folk Lore in book form.”
The Repubii on ticket is Garfield and
Arthur.

A <;.iril.’i,i, For i*rc f Hea
ter A 'f. ;inir, For Vice-President.
At the time of this writing, tho tele
graph has juit Jsrougkt us the nows that
Grant, ShcT’Juap and Blaine-,have all three
been thrown cjvc-rboard by tho Republi
can Convention, at Chicago, and that “a
dark horse,” known as Garfield has receiv
ed the nomination, as Radical candidate
for the Presidency. We sympathize with
our colored fellow citizens in the great
disappointment, which they will naturally
fed, in the defeat of their favorite candi
date, Gen. Grant, especially by a man who
bus never, until very recently shown any
interest in their welfare.
James A. Garfield, he successful candi
date was born in Orange, Cuyahoga Coun
ty, Ohio, November 19th, 1831;'graduated
at William’s College, Massachusetts, in
1856; was president of a literary institu
tion for several years; studied and prac
icod law; was a member of tlio State Sen
ate of Ohio 1859-60; entered the Federal
Army in 1861,as Colonel of the 42nd Ohio
regiment; was promoted to the rank of
Brigadier General, January 10th, 1862;was
appointed Chief of Staff of the Army of
the Cumberland and was promoted to the
rank of Major General, September 20th,
1863. He lias been elected to the 38th,
39th, 40th, 41st, 42nd, 43d, 44th, 45th and
loth Congresses. He has also been elect
ed by the Ohio Legislature to the United
States Senate to fill the seat to be vacated by
A. G. Thurman, on the 3d of March, 1881.
While General Garfield attained consid
erable rank in the army, he was not an of
ficer of national reputation, and it may
not he impossible that General Hancock’s
prospects as the coming nominee of the
Democracy have been improved, now that
a soldier so far inferior to him, in great
achievements in behalf of the Union cause,
has become thenomineo of the Republican
can party. General Garfield has been suc
cessful in the Congressional arena, and
during tho last and present sessions has
been regarded as the leader of his party
in the House. He is quick and able in
debate, aud has been quite a “stalwart,”
except iu the matter of the rider to the ap
propriation bill regulating the appoint
ment of deputy marshals, and the
presence of the military at the polls,
which ho dodged The political reason
for his so doing is now apparent. Many
Republicans believe that this measure
should pass, and while all the Republican
members presen,t under the crack of the
stalwart whip, voted solidly against the
amendment it was a vory awkward question
for a presidential aspirant to tackle, and
hence the General succeeded in getting
leave of absence, just when that measure
was under discussion and came to tho
vote. General Garfield will not excite any
enthusiasm in his party at the South. We
cannot say as yet about the North and
West,but present indications are that there
will be any number of sore heads and
malcontents, and we are disposed to
think that the other Northern and West
ern States will have something of a feeling
that so far as the Presidency is con
cerned,Ohio owns the Republican party.
Since writing the above, the Chicago
Convention has finished its work, by the
nomination of Chester A. Arthur, of New
York, to the candidacy of Vice-President.
Gen. Arthur is less a man of national rep
utation than any candidate of either par
ty for a number of years. It is evidently
the policy of the Republicans, to put for
ward, men without a record for good or
bad. But some of the Custom House
transactions of Gen. Arthur, as Collecter of
the port of New York, will perhaps now be
ventilated, to anything but the advan
tage of his ticket.
The leading Democrats of the country
and every well wisher of the Union will
now look with renewed interest to the
Convention to assemble at Cincinnati, on
the 19th of the present month, to nomi
nate candidates for the Presidency and
Vice-Presidency of the United States. The
Radicals unable to agree upon a candidate
amongt the three great men of their party,
Grant, Sherman and Blaine, have accept
ed a compromise in the person of Gen.
Garfield, with Arthur, of New York, for
Vice-President,as a sop,we suppose, to the
lordly Roscoe Conkling.
It is evident that the Radical porty have
lost ranch of their prestige and elan in
failing to unite upon prominent men, and
which goes so far towards insuring sucoess.
Nothing in the shape of personal distinc
tion or popularity, is now left to them,
with which to conduct the canvass; in fact,
nothing of any kind, except the torn and
ragged and ensanguined garment called
the “bloody shirt,” “only this and noth
more.” If the Democrats are wise and
conservative in their action,at Cincinnati;
if they will sink personal ambitions, and
animosities and come up with the great
men of their party, Bayard, Tilden, Han
cock, Thurman and others, calmly and
ditpassionately view the whole field, com
pare notes and put in, after so doing, the
best and most available men, they will
enter the field with an enormous personal
advantage over their opponents. Upon
the record of the two parties,for the last 15
years, the Democrats'can have no apprehen
sion. Behind the track of Radicals lie the
ruins wrought by the Freedmen’s bureau,
bayonet rule, nepotism, favoriteism, whis
ky rings, Navy frauds, treasury pecula
tions, credit Mobilier bonds, black Friday
and subserviency to monopolies. All of
these evils the Democratic party, during
that period, have been steadily though,
not always wisely combating, and what
the country now enjoys of restored peace
and prosperity, may justly be ascribed to
their ofi’oi ts. Besides it is the party of the
whole Union, while the Republican is sec
tional, the party of amity and federal love,
while the Republican is the exponent of
bitterness and hate. If the Democracy
’1 but illustrate its old wisdom and pa
i...>tism, it cannot hut commend itself to
the people of the whole country, and will
undoubtedly giau one of its old time glo
rious victories

The excuse given by the Brunswick Ad
vertiser for dropping Lester and taking up
Colquitt is entirely too thin ! We call
upon brother Stacy to publish that article
he wrote about Lester just before Colquitt
visited Brunswick. Come to time, Stacy,
and give us a better explanation.
When we remark through these columns
that certain men would make good officers
why the public should not think, for one
moment, that we are going to support
them, for it would be almost impossible
for us to support every good man in Geor

erally speak out in unmistakable words.
Recollect this.
A negro man and woman were arrested
near Atlanta on Friday charged with adul
tery. On the way to the jail with the of
ficer they sat down in the shade to rest,
when the husband of the negro woman ap
proached with a musket, placed the muz
zle in the face of the colored man and blew
his head to pieces. The murderer was ar
rested and lodged in jail.
A letter to the Atlanta Constitution says
Walton county is solid against Colquitt.
His friends have left him by the hundreds
since his senatorial appointment. No one
here believes the slanders that are being
circulated about the trade,|but he can never
explain to our satisfaction why he did not
appoint a sound democrat to fill the office
instead of a man whose record in politics
is so far from being clear. Walton’s vote
will be recorded against him as sure as the
time comes.
A coarespondent of the Columbus En
quirer calls on Gov. Colquitt to give a di
rect denial to the direct charge that if any
other man is nominated, he will run as an
independent candidate for Governor. The
writer says: “A most prominent colored
man in .South Georgia informs me that
Gov. Colquitt will rnn as an independent,
should the convention nominate any oth
er candidate for Governor, and the colored
Republicans will support him against the
regular nominee.”
The Gainesville Southron says that the
recent splendid discoveries of gold in
White, Lumpkin, Dawson, and, indeed,
all over northest Georgia, has done more
to develop that mining region than all the
newspaper writing and individual talking
has done since the war. It asserts that
th:se practical demonstration of the na
tural wealth of that section are bringing
in hosts of experienced miners and capi
talists to develop the hidden treasures of
that section and of the Blue Ridge Moun
tains and their richer placer valleys.
