Bill Arp, Shm Jones, Dr. Felton and Tobe
Jackson. J
Col. C. R. Field, of the River 28m*
district, was along with the Senatorial
delegation from Early Tuesday. He held
tho balance of power in the convention
and used it nicely. He was the centre of
attraction, so to speak, during tbe whole
meeting. As' the champion of Hon. Reu
ben Jones in the convention he was suc
cessful in getting Jones's vote up to a tie
with Hudspeth at one time. His zeal for j
JonSs Was the fihal means of defeating
“Hov.” Hudspeth and nominating Hand.
Hudspeth’s friends gave Field a raking
over tho coals after the convention ad-:
joorded. Hurrah for Field, say we.
The Senatorial Nominee/
In another column of the News will tfk
(ound tho proceedings of the nominating
convention of the 9th Senatorial district,
which was hold in Leary on Tuesday last.
After a sharp contest between Gov. Huds
peth and Capt. Dews, in which it seemed
impossible fur either to gain the victory,
tho friends of Capt. Dows put in nomina
tion Dr. I. H. Hand, whoso name drew
sufficient strength from the opposing side
to nominate him. Capt. Dews and his
friends consider this as a virtual victory
j for their side of tho question, and are
very much pleased. Indeed, tho Captain
seemed to bo the happiest man in Leary,
when the result was announced to him.
\\ e suppose the “Govorror’s” friends are
belter satisfied than if he had been beat
en by Captain Dews individually.
* Concerning the nominee we have this to
.«say: lie has been represented to us as
a highly cultured and refilled gentleman
ol broad mind. He represented Baker
county in the Constitutional Convention
fbf 1877 and his vie ws Were eagerly sought
and highly valued. That ho stands high
An his profession, is evinced by the fact
I jhat he was tendered a chair in ilie Talla
hassee Medical College.
Dr. Hand has never been a politician
nor an office seeker, but his native ability
and great merit have caused him to re
ceive many honors from his county,
i A friend, who "knows him well, tells us
'-“there is no more proficient man in his
county and none bettor capacited to fill
I tbe high office for which he was nominated
Avith honor to himself and country. He
is a man of sterling worth, high sense of
honor and great love for his country and
people, and his nomination will meet tho
hearty approval of all who know him, ex
cept the Newton riug, and his election to
will herald the march of advance
ment and purity in politics in his constit
uent counties.”
Dr. Hand will have the hearty support
of the News.
" Cedar Springs Dots.
f Since the young ladies and young men
Siavc returned home from school our little
burg has been quite lively. Other young
from different towns have visited
'the Springs and spent some time*, and the
boys have had quite a huge time. But
vacation is drawing to a close, and the
\ young students will soon bid farewell to
all amusement and return to their college
walls. Our village will then assume a
dull appearance.
Mr. 0. 11. Sheffield and sister, Ida, will
return to-day to Barncsvillc, Ga , to re

Blakely to enter school again.
The patronage of tbe Porter Hotel has
so increased uuder the splendid manage

He Departed from Arcadianism.
lion. 11. G. Turner went over to New
ton and engaged in a joint debate with
'Col. Gucrry at the Baker county mass
meeting on Tuesday of last week. Per
haps Mr. Turner has no warmer admirer
in the 2d district than 11. M. Mclntosh,
of the Albany JVews and Advertiser, and
hero is what a recent edition of that able
little daily has to say of Mr. Turner’s de
parture from Arcadianism, to which he j
has ever been a boasted adherent hereto
fore:
Mr. Turner made a very decided
bolt from his Arcadianism by his guii.g
down to Laker county to electioneer and
make a speech on tho day of the county
meeting to elect delegates to the Con
gressional convention. His friends in tho
county telegraphed for him and urged j
him to go, it is true, and there may he
other extenuatingcircumstauces surround
ing tho case; but nothing will alter the fact
that he lias departed from his Arcadian
policy. If ho has been an Arcadian in
principle, and has adhered to the loftly j
ethics of Arcadianism as a matter of prin
ciple, it is to be regretted that be yielded
to temptation and “fell from grace” at the
eleventh hour. Some of his friends in tho j
district have, on previous occasions, been 1 j
provoked at his rather rigid construction,
so far as his own conduct was concerned,
of the Arcadian code of political ethics,
and have sometimes complained that he
was so straight and stiff that ho almost
cleaned over.” llis friends in Baker noti
fied him that if he didn’t go to Newton on
he would lose tho county, end
the small majority by which he carried it
shows that they were about right; hut,
notwithstanding all this, if Mr. Turner
had remained consistent ho would have
remained at Washington and let Baker
county go. The Mews and Advertiser is
a friend and admirer of Mr. Turner, and
does not wish to be understood as com
plaining at his conduct on this occasion.
ludcsd, it has no right to complain, for
the reason that it has never pretended to
be ft strict Arcadian, still wo must confess
that we were a little disappointed at his
inconsistency in going to Newton on
Tuesday.
A Chance lor Genuine Civil Ser
vice ISeform.
Our able and esteemed compositors yes
terday morning changed the nainc of Miss
Meikleham, Jefferson’s great-granddaugh
ter, to “Miss Merkleham.” This, howev
er, makes no great difference. The able
and esteemed compositor may change a
name, but ho cannot change facts. Miss
Meikleham, who was ignominiously fired
from the patent office, has been reinstated,
and her reinstatement has been as prompt
as her dismissal, which shows that there
is something exceedingly rotten in the ap
plication of the civil service rules.
As a matter of fact Miss. Meikleham
was removed by a board of republicans.
No vpquiry was made as to whether she
was an efficient or inefficient clerk. Un
der the noble system of civil service re
form in vogue in the departments, the on
ly inquiry was, h s the lady any backers?
If so, how many? Miss Meikleham had
no partisans to support her claims, she had
no backers; consequently the great repub
lican civil service reform board employed
by th.c democratic administration to dis
criminate in such matters, concluded that
it had a very soft snap indeed, and Miss
Meikleham was sent a-whirling.
But the..moment it was discovered that
she was Jcfferson’sgreat-granddaughter, in
whom the public took a slight interest,
the secretary of the interior made bold to
reinstate her. This was well enough; but
suppose the case hail been different; sup
pose that no one at all had taken any in
terest in the case, what would have be
come of Jefferson/s great-granddaughter.
But this is not all. Under all the cir
cumstances, what becomes of the spirit of
civil service reform which we hear so much
about? If the la.v is in charge of a repub
lican board in the interior department, it
should bo in charge of a republican
board in all the departments, and it prob
ably is. We have no- objection to this;
, but now that the disgraceful exposure lias
s been made, what is to prevent the presi
dent, who professes to be a genuine civil
> service reformer, from removing the cor
: rupt board that dealt with Miss Meiklc
ham merely because she had no partisan
backing? Lot the republican board of
corruption be removed.— Constitution.
