It is supposed these two crooks
are the same party that swindled
the Mec«n hanks
( enid-essional Folly.
If the Democratic party had any
hope of success this fall in the
great election that will control po
lit ical events for the next four
years, it is fast looeiug it by t'>o
unfortunate desensions which
ba»a sprang up in the only branch
of the government we can control.
Minorities usually are more com
pact and better handled than ma
jorities, but although the Republi
cans have the Executive Depart
ment and the Senate the Demo
crats flushed with their success
in getting control of the House
are manifesting a want of states
manship that bodes no good for
the future.
The tariff question is the apple
of discord. Carlyle, Morrison
and the Western freetraders are
determined to carry their point in
the House, although it is well
known that their suceens would
In » victory barren of results, for
there is no prospect of such a bill
passing the Senate and receiving
the sanction of the' President. —
The fight tliere’U simply for bun
combe. 7t is the opening gun of
the great campaign this fall. Un
fortunately the par t.y is hopelessly
divided on this question. Randall
and his followers are opposed to
any present, inteiference with the
tariff and are prepared to fight the
passage of such a measure as vig
orously as any Republican. If
the party was a unit on the ques
ton and it was deemed best to
place th* party in line and make
that the issue to bs settled at the
ballot box, there might be some
sense in giving it such prominence
in. Congressional proceedings, but
where tbereis a broad and well de
fined division on the floor,and in the
country on this question, its dis
cussion can only eml in strife and
divifous that will weaken us in
the coming contest, and perhaps
control enough votes to lose us
the Presidency .
Heretofore free trade and high
tarifl’ men have laid aside their per
sinal differences and struggled
shoulder to shoulder to drive Re
publicans from power, leaving
these issues to be settled when
the party was in a position to die
tue the policy of the governmen',
and that was a wise course. It
left none of our leaders to sulk
ia their tents bee mse they dis
agreed with the policy of their par
ty. All wer# agreed in the effort
to drive from the temple the party
that for twenty years had use 1 it
pjwer for the personal aggrandi
sement. But from the dav this
Congress assembled until now the
vexed question has been kept
prominently before the country
and the party is being divide 1 in
factions over this question an .l its
modifications. One wing wants
free trade simple,another demands
r itection to American malnifuet
urers by a high protective tariff,
and still another wing comprotnhe
on a tariff for revenue only with
incidental protection to our lead
ing industries.
This question was sprung in the
e'ect'on for speaker and contvoled
v ites enough to elect Carlyle and
defeat Randal. This triumph was
not enough 'o satisfy the Wes
tern men, but headed by Morri
sou, Rlackburu and other light
of the free trade faction it ha
been persistently agilatvd month
after month and only to estrange
men who should b# moving for
ward with locked shields to vic
tory under the same banner.
Iu the meantime the Republi
can* are quietly smiling at the
Democratic folly, xn fact they en
joy the show, and only chip in
enough to keep the famdy fuss
lively. They are willing to leave
th ese political issues to be settled
by the party conventions, in such
a way as they can be construed
one way in the East end anoth
er in the West, and thereby hold
the vstee of free traders and pro
tective tariff advocates. The all
impor'ant question is how to git
iuside once tn, the differences
may be compromised so as to sat
isfy the country —all but tbe vis
ionary elements at least. And
that class or not worth taking
any chances to satisfy.
The whiskey bill is creating near
ly as much excitement in Wash
ington as.the tariff. The immense
amount in Lond, upon which the
tix has not been paid, bnt is held
for speculation, makes the passage
of the bill extending the time o
payment a matter of grave irnpor
taace to the dealers and manufatd
urere Their agents are swarm
ing to Washington like the locusts
of Egypt, and i k is reported that
money is freely offered to secure
its passage.
Has not the hue and cry about

The completion of the Railroad
from .Social Circle to Gainesville
will give the mountain city a boom
With competing lines of Railroad
tapping the sea coast her mer
chants pan demand and obtain
freight rates that she has never
had before. Ti e distance from
Augusta to Atlanta andGsinesville
is the same, and with a through
line under control of the same
Road from Savannah and Port
Royal, there will be no reason
why her merchants cannot com
pete successfully with Athens anti
Atlanta. In fact she will in the
next few years do a fine wholesale
business, and I lie merchants of
the mountain counties to the Ten
ncessee line, wd! go there to mar
ket t teir produce and purchase
many of tl eir goods.
The new route wili add greatly
to Iho stream of Summer visitors
who annually sepk the eo il brezes
mountain scenery, and refreshing
water of this city, ami her mineral
springs. We are glad to see this.
Next to our own home we fee! a
deeper interest in Gainesville than
anyotber town in the stale, for it
-vhs the home of our boyhood.—
The march of even is hove made
many changes sines we can lira'
remember, but they cannot cbliter
an the old landmarks imprinted on
our youthful mind.
We rejoice at the success of the
old towu, and feel proud to know
that she is moving forward rapid
ly iu wealth, intelligence and lmsi
ness. There is but one thing we
can see to check its growth, and
that is the sternal rivalry, Lick
erings and jealousy of some of
her citizeLß. If they could gel
their consent t* pull all together
one year, 1884 would wake the
most wonderful epoek in her his
tory.
In Innocent Wan lluug
We happened to be at the trial
referred to in the following clip -
ping from the Jackson 7/ctald. and
although a mere looker on at the
time, became interested and watch
ed tlie tostimoney closely There
was great excitement at the lime
and public prejudice run high.
We were far from satisfied
of the Defeudents guilt, in fact
there was a general feeling of dis
satisfaction with the verdict among |
the more intelligent class of spec
tators. When tlie negro who was to
lieiung vas askedif he had anything
to say why the sentence of death
should not be pronounced upon
him. he arose and tried to make a
statement but was nneermoneous
ly cut oft' with the flippant rtntark
hat “nothing he could say would
do him nny good now.” If the in
nocence of these parties shonl I he
demonstrated new, it will be a sad
comentary upon the administra
tion of justice in those days :
The Jackson Herald 2ay» that
three or four years ago two ne -
groes were arrested in Hall county
on a charge of raping a whi e wo"
man. They were tried and found
guihy. O ue was hung and the
other sent to the chamgang for
life. Since then enough evidence '
has b eu found to satisfy the com
munity where the supposed crime
was committed that the negroes
ware umoceut. An the negro now
in the chaisgarg was a citizen of
this county, parties placed the mat
fore the last grand jury, and after
an investigation, they decidt d to
request the grand jury of Hall
county to a k the governor for the
negro's pardon. If these facts are
true, how fearful it must be to
think that a human being' life
; wus required to satisfy a law that
lie had never violated, and anoth
er wearing chains fer au offence
that he never committed. The cit
izens of Hall owe it to themselves
to make a thorough investigation
and if they find lbs- the parlies

Three Yankee sharpers have

t.peciaUy two lwo dollar and a half
gold pieces and the balance in spe
cie. Tbo obliging cashier is wil
ling to accemnaodate him, and
counts out the specie. As goon
as he received the specie he bland
ly states that the money is so heavy
that it will be inconvenient to cart
m
ry and requests that lie take back
fifty dollars and give him a bill
for that amount. This was done,
the sharper retaining ssoand hand
ing back the other fifty. While

so bulky that 1 believe I will not
keep it, so just take this fifty <!,,]

The cashier began to turn the
traumtc'ion over in his mind and a

slaughter of Innocents
Yesterday afternoon reports
reached the city of a most mivci
ous and unheard of truge iy iu Bur
ke county, in which sever. 1 c lort d
children ha i been brutally tnurd
erid in a cabin which their parents
had just left. Investigation int i
these rumors showed that they
were revoliingly true, and special
advices to the Chronicle from Mc-
Bean near where the quadruple
1 murder was committed, dev, Iptd
I a story lacking only in sickening
de ails. The names of the color
ed family we da not know. About
a mile from Mcß<.au, how o s
yesterday morning, in a little cab I
iu just across the creek, in Burke 1
county, a colored uiun and his wife !
;he parents of the nufor.urale
children, left soy the field, ttking
with tlisai their eldest son. In j
the course of the morning the old j
man’s plow getring in the field
broke down, and bo sent the lad
back to tbe house for materials to
mend the harness. The boy re
paired to bis home, which had
been left just after daylight, and
arotnd the doorstep at. 1 Bo >r was
greeted with traces of blood Be
coming terified at the suggestive
sight he stampeded to the field
and hurriedly told l is frtaer what
ke had seen. The old man mount
ed his horse and rode home ward
with all possible haste, and hurst
inf through the door was appall
ed at the horrible spectacle. ’1 here
( lay upon their beds and floor, we!
tering in their blood, four little
children. Two of them wei’fe ch i
ped to death and two were airuost
in death agour. Pools of blood
; elo ted about the inanimate forms
and dyed the rude flooring with
stains. The parents were almost
beside themselves and no conceit
abl# clue to the tragedy sould be
i obta ned. The house was not
robbed—there had been nothing
there to steal; no vestige of the
mysterious and murderous hand
could be detected. It is "useless
to add that th* white and colored
people of Burke county are shock
ed and incensed at the wholesale
slaughter of innocent children.
Tboy do not believ e that any such
demon ox si in their midst who
would commit such siWhct. Every
posaiblr aid and sympathy has
been extended the aflli ted family
by all classes and matters and
to apprehend the perpetrator*.
The oldest child, a g'rl, we sre
told may survive, with proper at
