Gwinnett Herald. LA WRENCEVILLE, GA. Wednesday, July 28, 1380. NATIONAL Di-MOCRATIC TICKET 1 Fur President: WIN KIEL!)SCOTT HANCOCK, OF PENNSYLVANIA. For Vice-President: VC. H. ENGLISH, OF INDIANA. The ('nmpuigu. The Gubernatorial campaign is drawing to a closo until tiio Con ▼onlion meets. A largo number of counties appointed delegates last week. In noarlv nil of them there was a spirited contest, and generally the field was pitted against Colquitt. This is an un fair way to arrive at a choice. It is combining all of tho opposition against one, when probably half of tho voters would prefer Col-1 quitt as a second choice. Wo can perhaps better express our idea by an illustration. Take a county a majority in which prefers Har deman. His strength itv, united with Lester's, Gartroll’s and War nor s, and yet if Hardeman was out of the race, Colquitt would beat oither-of Die others two to one. This county is put down as ant; Colquitt, when in fact, it is not opposition to Colquitt, but a protcrenco for Col. Hardeman.— And the same rule will apply to each of the others. If this is the fair way to get at the strength of a candidate, what is the strength of Hardeman or Lester, if the votos of all the other aspirants arc a b r g re gated against him ? This is not fair to Colquitt or either of tho other aspirants. If Colquitt was withdrawn, his sup porters would probably divide bo tween the otters, here a (.’artrell man and there a Ilnrdemen dele gato. A few counties liko Bartow and Muscogee have put themselves on record as for anybody to beat Colquitt, but wo apprehend that not ono county in ten that has selected delegates for either of the other aspirants, can bo properly classified as againrt him. It is true that in some of the comities there has been a combination of tho other aspirants to beat Col quitt, just as is always tho case, the weaker aspirants combine to defeat the strong man, wliilo if lit was out of tbo way, they would light each other as bitterly as they oppose him. A very recent illus tration of this was exhibited in the Chicago convention, where Grant went in with a very decided plurality, and yet Blaine and Slier man united their forces to defeat him under the delusive hope that they might secure the nomination. It is evident now that Colquitt will go into the convontiou with over two hundred of the Ihixo hundred and fifty delegates, a very decided majority over all opposi tion, and four times tbo vote of any oue of them. He may bode foatod by a combination as Grant was, a minority may defeat the majority, but is that fair or Demo cratic ? When Hancock got a ma jority at Cincinnati, all opposition was withdrawn, and the friends of opposing candidates vied with each other in soei>ig which should be the first to come to his support Then enrno the love feast and tidal U’avo of enthusiasm that swept over the country as no oth er ever did since 1810. If Col quitt is not the first choice of the people, pray wh*» is ? There are other good men in this raco. No man has ever done more for Du moerney than Torn Hardeman. He fought the good fight with Gor don when it took more manliness to bo a Democrat than it docs now. Warner has stood like a pillow of lire,guarding the judicia ry from the inroads of fanaticism. Gaitrell was as gallant a soldier as ever seta squadron on the field, and hns worked faithfully in the ranks for these fifteen years, but withdraw Colquitt to day and ask which of there do the people want 1 What will bertha answer ? Nobody knows. An 1 yet the con vention would proceed to select a candidate and submit him td the people. All this bluster about Colquitt not being the choice o' the people is as foolish as the jargon that fol loved tho confusion of tongues at the tower of Babel. Take for in stance the result last week, after his enemies had done their worst, when the very mr was thick with charges and abuse, and whon eir culars and newspapers were imlus triously circulated, loaded with venom. Look at the, list of counties, — Troup, Wilkes, Glascock, Jackson, Washington, Ballwin, Merriweth tr, Newton. Greene, Brooks, Hook dale, Hancock, Spalding, Gowota, Houston, Worth, Oglethorpe, Cherokee, Butts,liichmond, Floyd, Whitfield, Catoosa, Henry, Pnlas ki, Union and Ltonkin, and per Imps others.’ All of those have, by sweeping majorities fallen into Colqftitt’a line. And in a large majority of these it was ;the result of a ballot. The following is tho rosult as it stands now : Colquitt, 203£ Hardeman, 41 Lester, Gurtrell, lfijj 1 Varner, 3 Doubtful, 7 Anti-Colquitt 7.} liasl Memory. Mr. Spoor, in his letter last week, says : “llis (Gen. Cook’s) defense was brought about becauso a Be publican member ba l confused tho 2nd Georgia Collection dis triet, which embraces the 9th dis trict, with the 2nd Ga. Congress ional district, which General Cook represents, and that gentleman took tho floor to say' that there was no illicit distiller in his dis trict,” Ac. General Cook did not so under stand it. He represents tho 3rd, and not the 2nd district. Tho fol lowing paragraph from Gen. Cook’s speech is conclusive : Mr. Chairman, that whole state ment lias been proved to bo abso lately falso, and a scandalous and unwarranted attack upon upon the people of that part of the State. I do not represent tba< district. I do not live in reach of that peo pie. There is no distillery in my own district., and never has been. 1 livo in a country which has noth ing but apples aud fruit cut of which liquor could bo distilled. The people of my di3*rici, thcro fore are not coueerned in the man ufacturo, but I know that tho state ment which has just been read is a false accusation against the peo (Jo who livo in that part ®f the State. It refers to a district which defeated the regular Democratic nominee in the last election, and sent a man here who opposed him. But there are many good people there, and though there may have been and doubtless have been vio lations of tlio law in some few in stances, yet it is unjust to make a sweeping charge of that kind against the whole community. I will venture the assertion that there is more illicit distillation in one day in tlio city of Cincinnati or New York, and other large cit ies of this country, than is carried on in twelve mouths in tho whole State of Georgia. Emory Speer has a fine toain of horses, named ,/oe Brown and Puto Lawshe. Now, that is a fan cy team, if tho horses are properly named. Joe Brown is a solid, steady puller, and will move things every timo the word is given, but as for Pete, bo will do very well as 1 >ng as he is allowed to have his own way through tho brush, but the first thing Emory knows ho will have an' independent par oxism, and kick and snort and ear ry the whole caboodlo iuto the woods.whitaEmory lustily screams whoa ! Pete, whoa ! That team don’t match, br'or Speer. - .. Tho commencement exercises of the State University last week, seem to have been rather tame. In tho olden timo tho commence ment at Athens gathered tho po litical war horses, who assembled thero and plotted and planned, but in these days, when thero are commencements at every cross roads, the enthusiasm has worn off. Still they come Noal Dow, of Mai no, has accepted the nornina tion for the Presidency on the prohibition ticket. Politicians, like drowning men, lmng on to a straw. That makes four camli dates, and Vio. Woodliall, on her woman suffrage platform, will prob ably close the procession. The Hci.-tifurshfp. More than usual interest is be ing taken in the Senatorial race in this district. Delegate'* have been appointed from all tho counties, and the convention will bo com posed of seventy two members.— As will bo seen from the following extract from tho DcKulb News, that county will como before the convention with an equal number of delegates for L. J. Winn and Dr. W. I*. Bond. Tho responsi bility will, therefore, fallen the other counties of making a selee tion. As DcKulb was entitled to the Senator, if that county had ex pressed a decided preference), by something liko a unanimous vote, it is probabio that the other coun ties would have respected that proforei.ee and made him their ehoico, but as both aspirants como before tho convention with an equal number of representatives, it will dovotvo on Gwinnett and Henry to dotormino between them : Last Saturday elections for del egates to tho Senatorial (Jonvon vention for this district, to meotat Stono Mountain on tho Ist Friday in August, wore hold in all the Militia districts of the county.— There were only two candidates. Col. L. J. Winn and Dr. VY. I'. Bond, and each had a ticket in ov cry dial l iefc. Col. Winn carried (he following districts; Decatur, Panthersviiie, Stone Mountain, Evans and Slmi lowford. Dr. Bond carried Litho nla, Brownings, Diamonds, Phil lips and Cross Iveys districts. A very light vote, about 700, was polled, but in some districts the vote was close and exciting. Gwm nett and Henry counties have con ceded toDeKalh tho Senatorship, and Col. Winn and Dr. Bond will each go into tiio convention with ton votes, whore they will have to tight it out. This makes the situation rather peculiar. Each of tho candidates goes into the convention with ail eqnal number of votos from De- Kalb county, which under the res olution passed by the last Senato rial Convention will throw the election almost entirely into tho hands of tho other counties com posing tho District. The resolution referred to is as follows: “Whereas, a misunderstanding as to the power of the Convention has arisen in the minds of some, by reason of the fact that up to this present time, it was seen prop er to nominate the person suggds ted by the delegates from the cofmty entitled to such represent a tion, and Whereas, such misconception jf the bowsr and duty of ties con vention may in the future be tho cause of discord and division in tho Democratic parly of this dis tiict. Thoreforo, be it Resolved. That while wo recog nizo tbo rotary system as the just and equitable one, that each and every county in the Senatorial dis trict has the right aud is entitled to an equal xmice, according to representation, in tho selection of a candidate to fill such position, that there may be hereafter a ful lor expression of the wishes of the several counties comprising this Senatorial District in the selection of candidates to fill said office.’ With this resolution in view, the pooplo of Henry countv in mass meeting last week, adopted the following, similar in spirit: Whereas, a convention will soon bo called for the 34th Senatorial District, for tho purpose of nomi nating a suitable candidate to rep resent us in the upper House in the approaching session of the next Legislature, and by tha rule of rotation, Henry countv con cedes to her sister county, De- Kalb, the right of being ropvosen ted by a Senator from that eoua ty ; and whereas a convention has been called to meet at Stone Moun tain on the first Friday in August for the purpose of nomination ; and whereas tho counties of Gwin uett and Delvalb havo selected dal egates to said convention. Thero fore be it Resolved, That while Henry county concedes the right of Sen atorship to Delvalb, yot wo aroen titled to a hearing in tho choice and selection of said candidate. Bo it further Resolved, That the Democratic party of Henry coonty elect and send to Faid contention two delegates from each militia district for the purpose c>f select ing a candidate, said delegates to bo selected in such manner as tho meeting may direct ; and should any deh.gato er delegates not at tend the convention, that the del egates who do attend vote as their proxies, in order to give our conn ty her full quota of votes to tho convention. Bo it further Resolved, That these resolutions bo published by request in tho papers in the conn- | tics composing said district j JGinory Spoor’s Jtoeoril. Mr. hdit-r —l notice that Vr. ! Emory Speer, through the col unms of your paper, in an effort to patch up iiis record to meet the exigencies of the approaching cam paign, makes use of statements which should receive attention. Mr. Speer’s article was predicated upon a I'esoluiiou introduced by Mr. M. S. Garner, and adopted by the meeting which assembled to select delegates to represent the county of Gwinnett in the Con gressional Convention, thanking the Hon. I'hillip Cook for defend ing the people of tho 9th Congres sioiial district, when they were as sailed by a Northern ltepublican during the absence (on a pleasure trip, I loam), of their immediate representative. Mr. Speer says, “this resolution was introduced by one, M. S. Gar ner, the near relative, (I believe Lhe nephew), of Hon. !£. B. Bell, who has publicly declared that he is assured of the nomination of the Gainesville Convention, which meets on Uic 10th of August next, and who, therefore, will be my op ponent for re election to Congress. This explains the ‘true inward ness’ of the situation.” Mr. Speer reasons in this way : Because Mr. Garner is a relative of Hon. H. H Bell, therefore [ was not absent from my post of duty. Such log-j ic comports finely with the absur- i dity of many of Mr. Speer’s propo sitions. Docs tho fact that Mr. Garner introduced tho resolution of thanks to Gan. Cook change the facts of the case or alter Mr Speer’s attitude in regard to the transac tion ? Let us see. On the 30th day of April last the House of Rep resontatives resolved itself into a committee of the whole to take in to consideration a bill to amend the laws in relation to tho internal revenue. Daring the discussion upon the bill, Mr. Van Voorhis bad the clerk to read an article from the National Republican, a newspaper published in the city of Washington, which reflected up on the people of mrthern Geor gia, and denounced them as law less. The section assailed inclu ded the 9th Congressional district, which Mr. Speer pretended to rep resent. Mr. Speer was absent from ids post of duty on that occasion, and Gen Cook did rqpel the base as persions. The revenue question was before the.Houso. Mr. Speer was absent—the people of his dis trict were assailed and Gen. Cook defended them. These are the facts. The question therefore re curs, dees Mr. Garner’s relation ship to Mr. Bell or his gratitude to Gen. Cook change Mr. Speer’s atitude “t Similar resolutions to the one complained of by Mr. Speer were adopted in the meet inge of the counties of Towns and Dawson. As explanations seem to be the order of the day with that gentleman, it would be well for him to explain the ‘true inward ness of the situation’ in regard to those resolutions. Mr. Speer is very much mistaken when he says that General Cook’s defence was “brought about because a Repub lican member confused the second Georgia collection district with the 2nd Georgia Congressional district which General Cook rep resents." 1 will stnto just here for the information of the nie-mber from tiio 9tb that Mr. Cook repre resents the 3rd and not the 2nd Congressional district. His do iV-nse could not have been‘brought about,' as Mr. Speer would have his constituents beliovo. by a con fusion of the Congressional and the Collection districts, from the fact, as appears in tho Congress ionai Record which I have before mo, that no allusion was mado to the number of either the congress ional or collection districts until after General Cook’s speech, when Mr. Conger, of Michigan, got the two districts confused and had the distinction between the congress ional and the collection districts exp!a ned t o him. That confusion of didricis having occurred after Gen. Cook’s defense could not have been the moans ol bringing about his remarks. The ‘‘true inward ness of- the situation” is that Mr. Speer in endeavoring to whitewash one of the many dark spots in his record. His little explanation is quite tame and will not by any moans satisfy the people of the 9th district that he has not proven recreant to the trust confided to him. While he is explaining it would bo well for him to satisfy the peo ple in regard to a little money transaction that occurred while he pretended to discharge the du ties of the olfico of Solicitor Gen eral of the Western Circuit. He had better explain to Lis independ out friends why ho sneaked into a Democratic caucus in Washing ton City—and he had better ex p’am to his Democratic followers why Mr. McMahon denounced him in the House of Representatives, for attempting to stab the Demo emti-' party. He should tell tho people how it was that lie could' find timo to air h»mself on his po-1 Iny and take pleasure trips, but | could not answer the letters of ins ' constituent*. Tlieso and many more tilings of tlie same kind will need explanation before Mr. Em ory Speer is re elected to Con gress. He brawls and splutters about Lis record. 110 says it speaks for itself. So it doos, jaud by it Lo is condemned. Democrat. at !*»■*: rrwawr* .*.m mmtmrns Mew A doertisements.
