Delivered in the Court House at llouglasville.ou the first Tuesday iu May. Fellow Citizens of Hie County of Dour/las: There has been a custom of long standing, for ali who seek Legisla tive positions to come before the people and declare their views on, at least, some of the measures or questions that arc exciting the pub lic mind; and according to previ ous arrangement, I appear before I you on this occasion to discuss,-(is 1 understand, some of tlie issues or measures which are likely to ta n e up before the next General Assem bly of this State, and in announcing myself as n candidate for the Sen atorial District, i prnpt sc in the outset to state that my can iitlacv is jntirely subject to the Senatorial Convention, which is lobe held in this district. Unless I rc eeive the lomination, I will not be a candi- iato. I am subject to the Democ racy of this .District, and should my own county go against me, I will not push my claims fur- ,her before the Conven tion. I will support wh icver is nominated. As my candidacy will depend on whether 1 am indorsed for the position by my own county, I thought best to open the cam paign here at home. I was born and raised in this jonnty. The people of my own iouiity know me better than I am known anywhere else. You know ny advantages and disadvantages; almost every act, both public and private, from my earliest infancy up to the present, are known to the people of the county of Douglas. J do not know who my opponents will be. Several worthy gentle men have been mentioned; l sup pose in good time they will make their appearance. All I can ask now is, should I have opposition for the office, that when Chartres of any kind are made against me, is to give me a chance to be heard be fore they make a final decision. I trust 1 will he ahl to answer each and all of them to the entire satis faction of all the people of this Sena torial District. I know, my fellow-citizens, when I put my name up as a candidate before the people, 1 must pass un der the critic’s eye, and in pointing his finger at me, he must be allow ed to have his sport and fun. I know too, I will get my portion of the abuse by those who may see proper to oppose me. I enter into the race with a full knowledge that I must stand to whatever may he put upon me, trusting all the whilethat the calm judgment and sovmd reason of the people will cause them to consider well all im portant matters before they act. 1 do not mind opposition when it is put on high, honorable grounds. I will under no circumstances, slan der anyone to get office; a man should run on his merits and not on the demerits of his opponent. 1 donor claim for myself any sort ot perfection; all I claim is to be an av erage Georgian. If I could see my perfections as perhaps you see them, I would know better how to govern myself in the future. (Hi! wad some l’ow'v the giftie cie US, To see oursels as others see us It wad (rue rnoiiie a blunder free us, And foolish notion. Men do not appear to have been created by chance; all mandkind possess certain qualities, faculties and desires which move and rule them, whether they he civilized or not In all societies, whether of civilized nation or uncivilized, there are certain rules and regulation which all must adhere to which must and will govern the conduct of each individual, whoever he may he. People in all countries have propensities to gaihe flocks or herds, and it has been a univcisal practice that some rule should be laid down among them as to what conduct should he lawfu and what unlawful. Hence, in all well regulated Governments, it is a test necessity that there ii,,h g ei,er81 ruie = should l-jnsMa f ,ith observe the and all - we have a -bad rule prescribed. repeal of it law, enforce But it is "i» llL ' C6rta '" t0 Wer importance of higher and grj^ c)othed with lhftt those who tawg tor the gov . authority to maki shouM look, eminent o. the |*\ l efore they act. and consider we l l wjth ftUthor _ They who are c. Ui hts of other _ Hy to say what the \ ^ , trong people shall he, shotf oflhe pe0 pressure of the. ^jjlance of life, pie, the great Kupolft liberty and the enjoy** 613 erty. All laws should he made I I don’t know that it is at all im-jPeting lines of railroad shooting with a view to the past, present,| portant that I should say anything across every section of country, mj and especially the future. The prosperity of the people ought to be looked to, and their happiness carefully guarded, because when happiness is said to be at its best, it is only momentary and then passes away: But pleasures are like popies spread You sic-ze the flower, its bloom is shed, Or, like the snowfall in the river, A in mumt white—then.melts forever. So what happiness the people do enjoy, should be guarded with the very best and highest judgment of the Legislator, and bsfore a Law of long standing should he repeal ed, it should be well weighed and its effects fully discussed. The gov ernment of the United States, un der the constitution, is divided into three general heads:—the Execu tive, Judicial ami Legislative; and so, utnl r the (' institution of the State of Georgia, we have the Ex ecutive, Judical and Legislative qumnients. The Legislature makes the law, the Judiciary de bits all questions arising out of, and construes the law, and the Executive sees that the laws are ■ uuhfully i t-cued and f’-Uy car ried out. Under the. Com fution, all of our laws are made, ( .1 noth ing can be passed by the legisla ture which comes in coi| ict with the Constitution. Now, with these general preliminary remarks, I will proceed to discuss first, THE ROTATION SYSTEM n this District. In the last Con vention there was a resolution passed 'that the rotation system -hould still prevail in this district ind it was agreed that the repre sentation in the convention should lie as follows:—Meriwether IT Coweta is, Campbell 12, and Dou* las 10 delegates each. Some, of our people fear that Coweta and Meri wether will go back on the rota tion system. So far as I am con- rned, I do not believe any such thing. They have shown no dispo- ition to do so, and I feel confident they will in good faith standby the rotation system and give the Sena tor to this county. Of course, some independent may come out and run, but it will do no good; the Democracy will not support him— hence, 1 deem it unnecessary tor me to soy more on his subject. I am not, prepared to say what changes should be made in OUU EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM. It certainly needs some. I be lieve iu carrying out that provis ion of our Constitution which says that the General Assembly shall provide tor a thorough system ot free schools in instructing the chil dren in the elementary branches of an English education. Should (lie House of Representatives in Congress, pass the Blair Education al Bill, it will become the duty of the Legislature to look well to it, and see that Georgia gets her share. The colored people of the South were turned loose without educa tion. It was bad enough to take them from their owners without pay, and to make the people ef the South pay for their entire educa tion would he wrong and unjust. Iftlie Blair bill passes, I trust that our Legislature will act .yiselyand secure whatever we are entitled to under the provisions of the bill, ac cording to the illiteracy of the people of this state. Georgia can never be a grand and glorious state until she educates her people, and the whole of them; for us to meas ure hands with the balance of the world, we inu-t have our people well trained in learning. Educa tion teaches us our duty to man to the world and especially to God. It enlightens our judgment, ex panda our reason and develops those faculties in us which make men and women wise in all things appertaining to this lite, and the life to come. From it we learn to govern ourselves by reason and Judgment, and not by prejudice amfpassion. Thebetterthe educa tion, the happier the people; and when the minds of the people of any nation are trained in matteis of thought in any branch of learn ing, it leads one step higher into civilization and good government It inspires us with brighter hopes for the future, and leaves a happy recollection of the past. Then, I say, the final hope of any nation is the education of the people. Well might jhe f>oet have said:— ■’Eternal hope! when yonder spheres sublime, Pealed their first notes to sound the march of time.’’ STOCK LAW. In some sections of the country it is well enough to have the stock law; and in other sections, toe peo ple would be belter ofl without it. Mv own opinion on the question is, that we do not need any change in the law; -it is now left where it prop erly belongs—that is, with the voters of each county or district. If the people want the stock law, let a majority of them vote for it, if they do not want It let the major ity of them vote agaiDst it. CAPITAL, LABOR, STRIKES, Ac. on tlie subject of “Strikes.” But as there is some trouble iu some sec tions of the country, I do not think it amiss to make a few remarks as tu what I think about it. I main tain that all the workmen have a right to make their own terms with their employers, and it can make no differ' n.ce, —so far as their right goes—wheth er they act as one mail or in num bers, great or small, of tneir fellow laborers, in are-arranging terms. All laws having for their object the preventionof such combinations and strikes, are unjust and oppressive. Every tmmhas an inalienable righ t to seek to better his own condition -anil must be let alone to decide in his own discretion the means to do this, saving only, of course, that he must at all times keep the peace and have due respect for the law and observe it. As a workman has no defense against an oppressive em plover except a threat to leave him^ it is llieextreme of injustice to de prive him of that. When a laborer strikes, he exer cises imly the liberty ot deciding lowborn, and on what terms he will give his labor, and to interfere with this right Would be to take away his freedom, and make him a siave. But the right he has and uses he must allow others, and the striker has no right to coerce any other working men to join him. When he does that he himself be comes a criminal of a very grave character, for his wrongs affect the rights of all working men. If it were granted, a striker might rightfully force another working man to join him, lie would thereby give up his own rights and liberties; for clearly if he may abridge the freedom of another, somebody else, by the same right, may lessen bis. If you h ive a right to force me not to work, another may have the same right to force you to work. The striker therefore commits the greatest and most absurd tyranny when he interferes to force some itlier man to work or cease to work. .Such things I hold to be contrary to every principle of right, justice and equity between the employer and the employee. If one man can not a fiord to work for another for what he, the employer, will pay, let him strike and quit, and go some here else and if all of his associates will strike with him, all right, let t :em do it. Bat in no case has the laborer a righ t, by force to keep others from work ing for such employer for whatev er they may agree upon. Any other rule would destroy the right of con tracts, and unsettle the security in property and abridge the liberties of a free people. An amicable settle- ni of differences of this kind be tween the parties, wouid be prefer able, but if they cannot, by agree ment in some way, come to terms, ro force should be used by either party to make them doit. RAILROADS. I come now to speak on a sub ject that some of uiy friends may siilVr with meon, but the difference :.(.f a very small nature, and a mere question of policy. I am in lavor of a It. R. Commission, and have always expressed myself that way. Other gentlemen, much wis er and better posted as to the slate’s interests than I am, believe there ought not to he a railroad comiuis sion. They . contend from their standpoints of reason, it keu-ps hack to a very great extent the develop ment of the various resources of this state, and that it retards the building of railroads in Geotgia. Whether this is true or not, I am unable to say. But I do say this much, that I favor a railroad com mission judiciously managed, one that will carefully guard every in terest the people have from the strong arm of such corporations as would in any way see proper to oppress or extortion upon them. I favnr a judicious management of the Commission so as to do justice to the people and the railroads. At the same time, 1 am of the opinion that Georgia should show t le same liberality to induce capital into her borders as her sis ter states do. The immediate resources of no country can be developed without railroads. To build upour waste places, we must have transportation for freights and passengers, and that in the cheapest and best way possible, and in order to do this we should at all times so frame our laws as to bring out this result. No one in this state would con tend for a minute that justice should not be done to all of her citizens and a proper regard had for all the interests in our state, and so man aged that one interest shall not im pose upon another. I believe if our people would look to the internal improvement of the state, we would not only he the Empire state of the South, but other states in the Union would look on Georgia with pleas ure and admiration. I long to see the time come when Georgia will taka the lead as a manufacturing own opinion is that they wouid add more to the convenience, wealth and prosperity of nur people than any o. her one kind of enterprise. If we ceuld have them, and have them managed justly by our Commission, it would be a great thing for the peo ple. I want to see the time come when we will have factories enough in our own state to manufacture every lock of cotton made in it, and in place of sending our cotton off to be manufactured, let it be done at home, then our farmers will be able to get the very highest prices for their cotton and other produce rais ed each year, and in place of the State being in the depressed condi tion she is after her crops of cotton are sold, and the money returned $o.our Noithern friends for the nec essaries of lite, wo will have almost a self-sustaining concern, and in place of all the money in the coun try being gone, we will have it con tinually coming into our State to purchase our manufactured goods. If this was done, it would furnish to thousands Of the women and chil dren employment, who are to-day without the necessaries of life. In this way immigrants would pour Into our State and we could march on in prosperity till ever Georgian could look upon his state and boast of her industry and progress of her peop’e. Oi>ourse no one need ex pect this to come about at once.bu t the quickest way to bring it about should be adopted. I do not own a single dollar’s interest in any rail road, and don’t know that I ever will. I am no champion of rail roads, but we need several of them in this Senatorial District. It would be a good thing for the people of Coweta and Meriwether if a con necting line was built from Green ville to Newnan and for both of these counties and Dosglas and Campbell to extend from Newnan through Campbell and Douglas and across the Georgia Pacific in the neighborhood of Salt Springs and E. T. V. & Ga., at or near Powder Springs, and on to Marietta. If this could be done, it would give each of us competing lines east, west, north and south, and would greatly build up our section of the State and give us a send off that would last us for years. And if our people would only take hold of it and work together, we could carry it through. It would also be a very important thing for the people of Campbell, that she should have at least a branch road built from the Georgia Midland, this would give the people of Campbell competing lines in all directions. If this pro gramme could be carried out, it would do more for this Senatorial district than any other one thing that occurs to my raiud. But I am in favor of having both railroads and commission. One thing we should carefully guard in our laws is, that the stockholders in one rail road should not be stock-holders in any other competing line in our State. So far as the county of Douglas is concerned, I give it as mj opinion she will have another railroad in less than twelve months, but I am not at liberty at present to intimate to you its general plans. I hope to see it come soon. My opinion on any and ali questions of policy is to take a conservative view and look for the right and do the right. The best plan to bring about the thing most desired should be adopted. I suppose the conven tion which meets in this district will express their views on the Railroad Commission when they put out their candidate. Whoever the nominee may be, it will be his duty to carryout, in good faith, the wishes of the people in matters of this kind One who is elected by the people, is the servant of the people; and if his views and the people’s should differ as to any question ot policy, he should adopt their views and carry them out, because, after all, a Senator and a Representative are nothing but servants of the people and are in the Legislature for no other purpose than to do their will and wishes on all questions. And should they desire no change, so far as I am concerned, no change will be made in the present Rail road Commission laws. I have heretofore, while in the Legisla ture, used my best efforts to have such laws passed as would promote the very best interests of all the people of the State. I have not heretofore, and shall not in future, if elected, support anything that would injure in the least any inter est that the people have. I am not bound by any tie whatever to any corporation or monopoly of any kind, and am under no obligations to them more than to see that jus tice is done to all of our citizens alike. From the best information I can gather a large majority of the peo ple of this district are opposed to any change in our present Railroad Commission laws, a d should I be elected I shall not vote for or support any bill or measure to change in e-s instructed to do so by res-.du-j in the State, on the ■ i«>n of the eon vent ion that is to meet ;i this district, but will allow it to s. oiid a- it is. It always affords me great pleasure to carry out to the letter the will and wishes of the ucople whom I represent. While I was in the Legislature I was on the people’s side of every measure that came up, and 1 defy the world to show one vote I ever cast that would in the least favor any monopoly against the interests of the people ot Georgia. THE STATE ROAD. I am opposed to the sale of the State road. It might, under certain circumstances, become necessary to sell it, but such do not occur to me now. I think the better plan would be to lease it. Place a limit on the power of the Governor in leasing it, that it shall not be leased for less than forty or fifty thousand dollars per month, and as much more than this as possible, and to pass such laws in this connection as will carefully guard the property of the State. The Georgia Railroad is leased for $50,000 per month, and the state only receives twenty-five thousand dollars for its road, a much more valuable piece of property. The State Road is one of the most valuable railways in the state, and ns value will increase from year to year, and a very guarded action should be taken by the Legislature in relation thereto. It might be best to sell it, if it would pay the entire debt of the State. I ain inclined to loubt it. I believe it can be easily rented for fifty thousand dollars per month. If thi3 is done it would add a considerable amount to our present educational fund and re lieve the people of $151)0,000 taxes each year. FARMING INTEREST. The greatest interest we have in our State is the agricultural. I am in favor ot passing all laws p issible to increase the farming industry of Georgia, and if there is any class of people in this land who have my deepest and warmest sympathy, it is the farmer. I am opposed to ar raying one class ot people against another,because it takes all kinds to make up a government; yet I do believe the farming class is the worst imposed upon ot any occu pation : generally the cotton crop is bought and sold long before it is made. One very great t-ouble with the farmers is the credit system, as is run in our country nowadays. By it they break themselves and break the merchants who sell them. One other great trouble is the loose way that they buy and use guano. I am not opposed to the use of fer tilizers,hut they ought to be used in a very judicious way. I think all laws possible ought to be passed so as to require a good article sold. Whatever is right and justice be tween the farmer and the guano dealer ought to take place. There are other great troubles in the way of the prosperity of our farmers, but I have not time to speak of them to-day. But suffice it to say if I am elected to the Senate from this dis trict I shall feel it my duty to look carefully to all laws that affect our farmers, and will use my best ef forts to advance their interest any and every way possible. I long to see the day cmne when our farm ers can get something like a reason able price for their cotton and oth er produce raised by them. GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE STATE. Georgia’s climate is genial and healthy, with every variety to suit the immigrant, whatever may be his occupation or pursuit in life. Should he desire to raise rice, cot ton, fruits, oranges or early vegeta bles and fruits for northern con sumption, he can find a suitable place in Georgia. If "he wants to raise corn, wheat, oats, rye, barley and other grains, he can find a good place in Georgia, and should he de sire to raise clover and grasses of all kinds he can do so on Georgia *>il. If ho wants to raise stock of all kinds he will find no better place than this State. We can raise ai most everything in Georgia that the necessaries ot life call for. We have high and low lands suited to diversified production. The climate is inviting to all, and will well re munerate all who desire to make an honest living by almost any oc cupation or avocation of life. This being true, I believe all necessary legislation should be had, that will tend to induce good, desirable im migrants to come among us, and thus help to develop the magnifi cent and diversified resources of our grand old state. With proper legislation to this end, it will be but a short time until it will be indeed and in truth the “Empire State of the South.” If elected, I snail do all that in me lies to accomplish this end. WATER POWER. side cl :ir county, which is noted for its • eat magnificent water p>\vi r Ii i very few miles the fall is -i \era • .mired feet. We al-o have liver in ilie western portion of ih nitty, v. ith ‘ qu ii [mwer to that t» • .eel 'Water Creek. We also ha vt nai'.y other courses with fine powei on them. Campbell, Coweta and ■teriwether, all have considerable v.iter power in their borders which • tight to be utilized and developed, and factories and mills built upon them. We have in the district a great many mineral springs ot strong potency. In Douglas, the celebrated Bowden Lithia Springs, nore commonly known as Salt Springs, besides other fine mineral -prings in the county. Salt Springs, no doubt, is one of the best springs any where in the whole country The time will soon come when it will be known far and near for the wonderful cures it will and has al ready affected. Other portions of the State have as good water power as we have and perhaps better in ■some particulars. Georgia is lined almost from one side to the other with fine water power—we need capital to build them up in manu factories of one kind and an ither. The development of cotton factories is progressing with a great stride. The manufacture of cotton where it is grown is the idea that is seiz ing the world, in every instance it has proven profitable. In 1SS1 we had invested in Georgia in manu factories the following sums: Bibb $77,500, Brooks $13,955, Clark $260,000, Cobb $156,750, Coweta $7,- 500, Early $6,500, Greene $52,000, Hancock $25,800. il irris $75,000, Houston $25,030, Mnsc.-igee $501,565, Newton $15,50(), Pulaski $6,000, Richmond $516,009, Taylor $11,000, Troup $10,003, Upson $15,090, Wal ton $56,000, W irrer $30,000, making total of $1,966,070. Thiabive fac tories or amounts pay tax. Those i hat are not taxed are as foil iws: Cobb $53,000, Chattooga $225,000, Coweta $75,000, Chatham $100,000, Cherokee *16,000, Bibb $70,000,Brooks $30*,000, Barlow $19,000, Early $57,- 000, Fulton $286,000, Muscogee $500,- 000, Pickens $15,000, Richmond $700,- >00. Making a total of $3,176,000, making a grand total of $5,142,070, Since 1881 there has been consider- ihle investment in factories in tlie date,in Augusta, Richmond county, and other portion! of the state, per haps to the amount of $2,500,000, and 1 trust in a few years to see the fig ures doubled. We have in Georgia now com pleted, over 2,700 miles of railroad property, ol an estimated value of seventy-five million dollars. The original cost of the railroads was upwards of fifty million of dollars. I would be glad in the next twenty years to see this much more invest ed. If we only had as much invest ed’ in manufactories of various kinds as we have in railroads, we would be fast gaining pace on the rest of the States in the Union. In order to build up our State we must foster all and every occupa tion of life and invite the balance ofthe world to join us in our at tempt to carry the Empire State of the South into a higherState of civ ilization, to assist in developing our resources, in building our factories, building railroads, utilizing our farms, converting our inine3 into merchantable products, in advanc ing agriculture, in building upour wasteplaees, in converting our pine timber into money, in building us up in education, aud to assist and help us in all things that will lead us to success, and in that which will place Georgia in advance, if possible, of any other State in the Union. Georgia has had great men and has them yet, and if each and all of them, rich and poor, high and iow, white and black, would join together and make a long and steady pull in all things, it would lead us in advance of all our sister states. The depressed condition the country has been in for several years, 1 trust, is about over. I think I can see in the near future better times, and I believe it near at hand when the whole country will rise from the financial press ure that has been upon it for sever al years, and 1 hope to see the en ergy ot the people again quickened and ali march along together m perfect peace and harmony and to prosperty and plenty. Ill R CONNECTION WITH ATLANTA. This portion of the State is close ly identified with Atlanta. With railroads penetrating every sec tion ol country, she wields a great influence over the surrounding country. For energy, tier people are not surpassed, if equaled, by any city south. One of the brightest gems in Atlanta is the Constitution. The management ot this paper is exceptional. It has men of brains at its head and men of modern ideas.
