GEE, OF MITCHELL, For Representatives : DR: J. A- BUTTS & ,T. L. BUTTLER* Ho! Every Man. Remember that the election for Senator and members of the House of Representatives takes- place attlie various precincts next Wednesday. Rally to the polls, one and all. The Democrat who desert's his standard-bearer on next Wednesday, deserts his party, and forfits all claim for future honor at the hands of De mocracy. Consider Democrats, are you willing to allow your personal preferences lead you to the commis sion of an act that may deprive you of all influence and standing here after in the ranis of your party ? How much you risk by such an act; how little you gain. Col. Gee is a farmer, and an hon est and intelligent gentleman. There are few who have such a fair charac ter as he for purity, integrity and reliability. Like Csesar’s wife, he is “above all suspicion.” Democrats, he will represent your interests bet ter than any trimmer, trickster or demagogue. Stand by your nominee! “CMckens will come home to Boost.” Tom Swearingen now denies that he introduced the “chicken resolu tion,” but when the papers all re ported it as the production of T. A. Swearingen of Decatur county, he did noi deny it , but now he grows indignant at the mention of it. ■Whether he introduced it or not he. voted forit,. and if any one don’t be leive it, let him call at this office, and see the public record of his vote.- We can produce it. Colored men beware of him : he voted for a resolution* to prohibit your wives from raising chickens. If lie did once, he may do it again. ♦‘Wlutelcy’s Love Letters.” The whole of this Cwagsessisnal district is flooded with radical cam paign lies, franked under the signa ture of It.. H. Whiteley, M. C., or some other M. C. There are two Kinds of them, one he, Whiteley, sends to white man, aad th». other to colored men. Those he sends to white men narrate the many virtues of Grant whilerman’s friend* and Greeley’s fondness for the dar key, while the other tells how good a friend Grant is to the colored men, and how bitterly Greeley hates the negyo>. Uliey. are direct contradic tions es. each; other ;; like Cassio’-s drunken vision, a great mass of lies, but nothing distinct,, save the cloven foot Bfenj. F. Bruton, the independent candidate for Senator, voted against all committees for the purpose of in vestigating the illegality of the bonds issued by Bullock. He thus ap proved, and would have sustained the frauds and robberies perpetrated upon our people by Bullock, Blodg ett and Kimball. Honest voter are vou willing to return such a man to the Senate who has shown such a reckless disregard of the peoples’ j iterest ? BENJ. F BRUm AND JUS claims «?) for the sena- TORSIIIP. It is with great surprise and rnor (tification that we heat good; Demo crats in otrr midst advocating the claims of the gentleman whose name beads this article, in preference to the regular and patriotic nominee of our party. And the absurdity of the thing is, the frivolous reasons, that are given for the advocacy of Mr. Bruton’s candidacy. Some say, he is a Liberal Republican, and we ought not to ignore Liberal Repub lican's. If he he a Liberal Republi can, thetr hi* constituency and sup porters enaght to be found in the ranks of his own party. Assuredly he can claim nothing at the hands of Democracy ; who owe him nothing, neither a debt of gratitude nor a debt of honor. We would not ig nore Liberal Republicans who are with us on present issues, but where is the logic in the Democratic party giving to a Liberal Republican office, who cannot bring from his own par ty a corporal s guard of supporters ? ; The idea fs preposterous of a great ■ party abandoning its regular nom>- : nee in order to cast its support for : a member of a different party who will not get fifty negro votes in the i District, and not ten white votes who claim to be Liberal Republicans.— 5 Why, gentlemen, it is a reflection on our good common sense to urge such a reason. If you wish to vote for Bruton, pray do it straight, and do not offer such a flimsy pretext as this* Others again say, that they would like to vote for Mr. Bruton, because he is a representative man,, would advance the material interest of our city and county, and would benefit us more in the Senate than any one else whom we could send. If this be true, then we are in favor of im porting a few carpet-baggers to do the legislating of the Bth District, whose wild-cat projects and financial blundering would, we verily believe, be an improvement on the legislative pretensions of the ex-Senator who has essayed to represent our District for the past four years. We do not think any honest man can certainly urge this latter reason in favor of Mr. Bruton, who is at all acquainted with the crued to our city and county under his engineering direction. Who does not know that when the Gulf Road first reached our city, that great enterprise which has so mate rially benefited us all, that Mr. Bru ton was its most bitter enemy, when every patriotic citizen should have been its friend, and did all in his , power to cripple its strength by put ting in a claim for heavy damages, amounting to about $15,000 for right aof way through his city property. Who* does not know that the award of commissioners gave him only $9,000, and that he was dissatisfied with this. Who does not know that he went to Atlanta- in order to use his Senatorial' office for - the purpose of getting control of the Gulf Road to manage it in his own interest ? And who does not know that the Gulf Road was compelled to employ attorneys and to keep them in At lanta during an entire session of the Legislature in order to checkmate his ruinous schemes ? Who does not know that he was President of the B. C. & C. Railroad, 'and that it was he who induced the city of Bainbridge to subscribe $34,- 1 000 of A. &, G. Railroad stock for $17,900 of B. C. & C; Railroad stock— and in?addition, to subscribe $50,000 in city bonds, bearing seven per cent, interest to his said B. C. & C. Rail road ; and- that the city of Bain bridge acttually paid $3,500 as in terest on said, bonds; Afterwards it is true, all the stock raised by the city of Bainbridge, amounting, to $67,000 in the B. C. & C. Railroad w r as given up for the return of the $50,000 in bonds subscribed, but by this arrangement our city lossed its entire stock amounting to $34,000 pi the A. & G.- Railroad besides the $3,500 interest paid- upon its bonds. And ah this was the result of the manipulation and engineering of Benj. F. Bruton. ‘Who doubts it ? Not only did'Bainbridge lose in the 1 B. C. & C. Railroad, which was a signal failure, but private individuals of our, and> adjoining counties have lossed then* paid subscriptions in that wild-cat road of which Mr. Bruton was the father. No public enterprise that Mr. Bruton has ever undertaken, has succeeded* Tell us something that he has done ? His public life has been a complete fail ure. With such a record what claim has he to- the- Senatorship, even if we had no regular nominee in the field? Don’t forget the election next Wednesday, October 2d, for Gover nor, Senator and Representatives. The Election. Don’t forget that next Wednesday is electiin day. Let every Demo crat, Liberal Republican and friend of peace and order turn out, and roll up a handsome majority for the con stitutional ticket. No tittle importance is attached to this election. ’Tis true, only Gov. Sen ators and members of the House are to be elected, but the result will be counted as a real measure of arms, and the triumph or defeat of our party will have much to do with the great elections that are to follow, and our forces, far and near will be encouraged and rejoiced at our vic tory, or will dislieartend and par alized more or less, at our inglorious defeat. Georgians, the eyes of America are on you, and every man is expect ed to do his duty. Remember, that every voter ivho stays at home, is so much assistance rendered the “ rule or ruin ” party. Their boast and cry is, the Democrats are paralized and indifferent. God of Liberty, is this so ? Is the great and free spirit of our Father's dead ? Are we be come a race of slaves, mere tools in the hands of tyrants and traitors, “ instruments of thir great designs ?” Are we, the should be freemen of this great and glorious country, a common prey, for the miserable car pet-baggers, scallawags, thieves and scoundrels ? Shall we let our father land be the forage ground of adven turers and thieves? Arise men of Decatur, Georgians, “ Strike for your alters and your fires, Strike for the green graves of your sires, God and your native land.” A Traitor iu the Radical Camp. Rrimbery has said, since his nom ination that he is no Republican ; that lie is just making capital out of the fool niggers, or words of like im port. Colored man, stop and think “ Sharper than a serpent’s tooth,” is an enemy who comes in the guise of brotherhood. Can you vote for such a. one ? Had you not rather trust a man who honestly tells you he is a Democrat, but is in favor of the col ored man’s having the same rights under the law, as the white man ? Brimbery made the above state ment and to one whom colored men have heretofore voted for, and whom they would Vote for again were he a candidate. We mean Col. W. T. Cox, foimerly Mayor of Bainbridge. Col. Cox says he can, prove it by sev eral gentlemen who were present at the time. Brimberry either meant it, or he was dishonestly lying. In either case he does not desire your votes. We refer you: to another ar ticle in this paper for other eviden ces of his dishonestly and unmanly cifljkluct. Our Candidates for the House: Dr. J. A. Butts, is too well known in Decatur coaMy that we need not recount his merits to the people.— For fifteen years he has practiced physic in this city and county, and has won for himself a reputation in his profession, that he may w T ell be proud of. In his practice and his private life, he is esteemed by all who know him, generous to & fault, he never turns a deaf ear to the poor and afflicted. Many a poor man, black as well as white, can remem ber the time when he applied to him for relief, and never was he turned away without aid, and if he can credit what we hear, they will re member him next Wednesday. Mr. Butler, is a true representa tive of that most honored class of citizens, the backbone of our county, the intelligent farmer. When the test that tries men’s souls, we will not fear for lsiin. As true as the needle to the hole is Mr. Butler to his word, his duty, his honor and his country. Hurrah for the two B’s. Tax Collectors. We give the subjoined letter as defining the duties of Tax Collectors. Query. Has the law been complied with in this county ? If not, why is it, that the proper authorities do* not have the law complied with : Gojift-'r General’s Offce, ) Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 29, 1872. j J. T Kottman, Tax Collector, Thom dsvitte,. Ga. Sir— -Your letter of the 27th iustant has been received. It is your duty-to pub lish. at the Court- House door your insol vent list for 1871, and to furnish election managers of the county a list of all per sons who have not paid their taxes for that year, in accordance with paragraph 7, section 9117 Irwin's Code, and all persons who have not paid all taxes which may have been required of them, and which they may have had" an opportunity of paying, agreeably to law for the year next nreceeding the election, cannot, under the Constitution, be allowed to vote. '•'he payment of the tax for the year 1871 entities the citizens to vote in the election of the present year, and you will receive the tax for the j'ear and receipt accordingly, although the tax payer may be in arrears for former years. In case of default in the payment of poll tax for 1871. you will collect one dollar as poll tax and one dollar as penalty for fail ure to comply with the law. Respectfully, Madison Bell, Comp. Genl. “ Vox Populi, Vox Dei.” If every man will do his whole duty next Wednesday, the, victory is ours. Hundreds cf men in this county have not voted since the war, but they must be brought out this once, anyhow. Help each other. If your neighbor has no horse to go to the election, lend him one, if he is sick make him an easy bed in your wagon or cart and carry him ; if he is indifferent persuade him to go out; if his family is sick so that they need his services, let your wife or your daughter go to his liouse, and ad minister to them while lending a helping hand to his country. Don’t wait for your neighbor to make the firat effort, but vie with each other in doing the most good. Don’t become discouraged for we are masters of the situation, if all help. The man who won’t go to the polls and cast his vote for what he think#right,.is no less a coward, than the soldier who goes for the wagon train, when the roar of the; cannon is heard in the front, and is as much a citizen in spirit as what was known in the army as wagon dogs and de serves the mantle of lead which Dante apportions to cowards in the 1 lower regions. To vote is a great duty every man owes to his country. By the ballot alone, is the will of the people ascer tained, and the will of the people is the fiat of the country, and we ver ily believe his Christian duty too. Your country expects every man to do Iris duty. BRIMBEHKY AGAIN. llis Hate of the Colored Man— He Furnishes Guns to Kill Them at the Camilla Riot—He says “ Niggers have no Souls ” —His Conversion and Baptism into the Radical Camp- Until three weeks ago, Brimberry w r as a “ redhot Democrat ” and wrote for a paper that claimed to be Dem ocratic, the Camilla Herald. No man in the country w r as more prol - in his abuse of Radicalism than he. He w r as noted for his extreme hate foi the colored men, and when the great Camilla Riot took place, he was in such haste to furnish guns to kill the “ damned niggers ” that he bursted open several cases of arms in his store and gave them out to the white men, and these same guns belched forth the deadly missile that made many of the colored men bite the dust. Was he with you then, colored men ? Since that time and up to the day of his nomination, he argued in pub lic and on the public streets, that a nigger has no .soul, and is a brute, a mere animal, and can never go to heaven. Brimberry dare not deny that he said it, for the proof is at hand. Why is he a Radical? Three weeks ago It. H. Whiteley, went to his house and set up with him a day and night and in all probability promised him the nomination, for the Senate, and the support of the colored voters, if he would “ come over” The temptation was too great for liis cupidity and avarice, and he yielded submission to the tempter, not because lie loves the nigger or the Republican party, but because he loves their votes. Go, colored man on next Wednes day to the polls and vote for the man who s&ys, that you, your wives and little ones are as soulless as your dogs, who furnished guns to slaugh ter' your brethren, and who now says he is now at heart against you What Greeley says of the Color ed People. In the following speech Mr. Gree ley gives his view's fully as to this class. It puts to rest the many lies resorted to by Grant’s political flies that swarm the country to induce the colored people to believe that he is in favor of reducing them to slav ery again : Louisville, September 23.— -Mr . Gree ley, discussing the colored question, said; Fellow-citizens, if our movement should prevail, as I trust it will prevail, we will sweep away all this refuge of lies iu three months. We will- say to the colored men we proffer you nothing except protection of the laws—the same for you as for us.— you have your living to earn as well as we have. You will have to use all your abili ties, all your energies, all your faculties, and make the most of them you can. The' laws do not favor you. They will thorough ly protect you; and iu three months, if we succeed, the colored people will be so disa bnssd that the same men can never deceive them again—never again! But suppose we fail, (and we may fail) if the colored men did not believe that the power was against us -that money was against us—if they did not realize that the treasury, the army—the one hundred thousand office holders were all banded against us in a force which they believe we cannot overcome, they certainly would not be so universally hostile to us. Why they think we cannot succed and they want tobe upon the winning side.— That is part of it. but they are also delud ed in regard to our purposes. We say we are not your enemies, we will not be your oppressors. AVe will not, though you have done us injustice, we will try. as well as we can, to have your chil dren educated and enlightened so that the mistake you have made cannot be made over and over again. General Campaign Notes. Springfield,*the home of Lincoln, its German vote as follows: For Greeley 794; for Grant, 14. g One of our subscribers at Rock Bluffs, Neb., writes; “The cause of Greeley is in the ascent in Nebraska.- The Democrats and Liberals will have a majority of 5,009 in the State. —Louisville Ledger. A year or t iro ago Wendell Phillips said that “Grant could not stand up before a glass, of whiskey without falling down ;” and now he says lie wants Aims to be kept in office till every person who participated in the rebellion shall be laid in the grave. The Tribnne says that Senator Trumbull has written a letter to a friend in Springfield, Illinois, that in all parts of the State which he has visited the utmost enthusiasm con tinues in the interest of reform, and that there ean be but little doubt* if the present sustained efforts are con tinued, of the success of the Liberal ticket in that State by a larger majority. Greeley at Pittspurg.— Never have witnessed more vehement or deter mined outbursts of enthuisiasm and wilder championship. GREELEY AT CINCINNATI. The number on the streets during the reception is variously estimated some placing it at from fifty to seventy-five thousand, while others, more enthusiastic in their calcula tions, say that over one hundred thousand persons witnessed the arrival of the great Farmer of Cliap paqua in our city. Certain it is, we do not remember of any man ever receiving a reception so enthusiastic, and at the same time without any apparent preparation’. It was simply an outpouring of the people, anxious to pay a just and merited tribute to an honest mam The Indiana Straight, Major Moreau, lias sued the Indianapolis Sentinel for libel. Commenting on his persistent determination to coerce Charles O’Connor to accept the nominatian forced upon him at Louis ville, the Sentinel remarked: “So Mr. O’Connor has no rights that the man with three wives is bound to respect,” whirii tbo Major thinks is worth about $20,000, as set forth by his attorneys iu his legal complaint. The Sentinel, in response, reproduces from the records es the Superior Court the complaint of Minerva Moreau, in which she' petitions for a divorce on the ground that the gal laat Major, after having; obtained possession of of her property, consis ting of moneys, goods, wares* mer chandise, etc., and- without paying any considerable part of his debts, or “even the debt contracted for his and her boaefing,” abandoned her, taking with him a large sum of money. She charges that lie used false pretences to get posession of her property, converted it to his own use, and then left her without any means of support. , Massachusetts Conservatism.— The mammoth codfish suspended in the Hall of Representatives at the State House, is a fit emblem of politi cal ideas in this Commonwealth— salted, dried, and warranted to keep their original flavor in any climate for any length of time. Mrs. M. Adele Haslett made a two-hour Grant speech at Lansing,. Michigan, oa> Monday nights Happily for this Commonwealth the mood of these tyranical theives and thugs is sealed. Nothing can save Hartranft now. His overwhel ming defeat is as certain as that the sun will rise on the Bth day of Octo ber. Alleghany and the whole West is aflame with indigsatton at- the audacious attempt of Cameron & Cos. to impose this man Hartranffc upon the Commonwealth as its Governor, and to elevate a notorious lobbyist and shameless corruptionist to- the office which Hartranft has disgraced. Lancaster county is in open revolt. So is Luzerne; and- scarcely a eounty in the State will give anything near its fall Republican vote to Hartranft and Allen. Philadelphia cannot now be carried for them on a fair poll; yet, supposing the Ring to count up a false majority of 10,000 for them in this city, careful estimates show that they will be beaten in the State by from 8,000 to 10,000.— Forney's Press. The discovery of anew “Mammoth Cave” in Boone county, Ky. is re ported, and is causing much excite ment. The local papers say that the neighborhood has been the re sort of picnics for years; and jet until July 16, itjhas remained entire ly unknown. The cave, so far as explored, is said to be more than two miles long, and contains single chambers no less than a huhdred feet in length by forty feet in width and twenty in height. How the Grant Gang Propose to Buy their Master’s Election The New York correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial shows up in a late letter how the grant mana gers in that city, propose to buy his election. He says: Two years ago, in the State elec tion, $95,000 was raised from the customhouse. This year for the Grant election, under the increased assessment, SIIO,OOO are to be rais ed from the same place, while the Collector himself, it- is understood, is down for $25,000 —making $135,- 000 out of this customhouse alone. Besides this, there are a number of special assessments for local jtolitical purpose, which will amount to a large additional sun*. In other blanches of the public services in New York the political assessments are levied in the same way. Next to the customhouse in importance is the Brooklyn navy yard, which has six thousand persons connected with it or dependent upon it. From this place it is estimated that about about $70,000 can be raised during this month and next; but to swell the aggregate sum, as well as to swell the aggregate number of votes for Grant in tixat locality, two thous and additional hands are to be taken into this yard next month. Then there are the assessments on the internal revenue functionaries, esti mated at $30,000; the assessment on tlie internal revenue functionaries, estimated at $30,000; the assessment on tlie postoffice, say $10,000; the assesssment on the Marshal’s office on the United States Courts, and on the military headquarters. Tlie in formant from whom we get these facts, and who is necessarily posted about the matter through his official and political position estimates the entire amount to be raised by politi - cal assessment, within about thirty days, from the office holders iu New York, at nearly $350,000.- Trait, of the Palatka re lates the following: Sixteen miles west of this place lives Esquire Futch, whose not'ce has been called to the fact that for some time he has missed a cow or steer, hogs, etc.— Not far from his premises there is a pond or water-hole, very deep, and he was led to suppose that some monster inhabited the place. One evening he very quietly seated himself with his gun near by to watch. A two-year old steer came down to drink, when a huge alliga tor reared himself up and caught the steer by the n os4’ and dragged him inlo the (water. The conflict was an uneven one, and the alliga tor was raster of the situation. The Squire discharged both barrels, but failed to make .an impression on the. monster. He says that the animal is the most terriable looking fieast he ever saw, and supposes that he must have travelled during the dry term to that poiAi in search of water. —>Sav Neics. r l he New “Stock LAW.” Th e. Columbus Enquirer finds the pro visions of this law briefly stated in the Early County News. It appears that the law is only to go into operation in the counties that accept it, and the inode of acceptance or rejection is provided in the act. A “legal friend” gives the News the following information concerning the pro* visions of the act: “The law declares that the boundary line of each lot, tract or parcel of land shall be a lawful fence. It prevents stock of every description from running at large, or beyond the boundary line of its owner’s lands; provides a sum mary process for the recovery of damages committed by stock trespassing upon an other's lands: and the punishment for the malicious impounding of another’s stock. This act has no effect in any county un less fifty freeholders petition the Ordinary of the county for its benefits. When this is done, the Ordinary makes the fact known by publication, when, if no coun ter petition is filed, the act becomes opeta tive. But if fifty freeholders sign a coun ter petition, the Ordinary can go no far ther, unless the first petition is supported by the names of twenty-five additional freeholders; then the Ordinary must sub mit the question to the legal voters- of the county. If a majority vote “no fence,” then the act goes into operation six months hereafter. New Advertisements. GURLEY & RUSSELL. Attorneys & Counsellors at Law OFFICE IN COURT HOUSE, BAIN BRIDGE, GEORGIA.
