DON’T KOHOET IT!
Wednesday, the 4th of October,
next Wednesday week, is the day to
elect Governor and Members of the
Legislature. Democrats! keep it in
mind ! and be sure you go to the polls,
every mother's son of you!
Ohio and Indiana will settle the Re
publican hash two week from to-day.
The Democrats of Oregon have elected
LaFayette Grover United States Senator
for Bix years from next Novembor.
StrawB show which way the wind blows,
and the way bets arc offered tells the drift
of a political current. Bets arc offered
two for one against Felton and nobody to
take them.
We hear that outside parties are claim,
ing that Felton will carry Floyd county
These men know nothing about it; Felton
will lose 500 votes in Floyd. There are
not 200 Democrats in the county for him
All the rest of his vote will be Radical.
Maj. Hargrove controls about 150 Dem-
crats, these he. will vote with his negroes,
and the united vote will he Felton’s
strength in this county.
We have reasons to know that the
letter written by Maj. Z, B. Hargrovo to
W. L. Goodwin, which we published last
Saturday, was written under the seal of
friendly confidence, and while we do not
abate one iota of our condemnation of the
alliance therein disclosed, we do most
heartily conderan'thc faithless treachery
of the man Goodwin in placing it be
fore the public. There should be honor
even among thieves.
Col. Dabney made a speech last Satur
day night at the City Hall. It was
masterly effort, calm, dignified, logical
and eloquent. It shone in most happy
contrast with the furious.indecent,snorting,
hell-roaring harangue of the Reverend
Mr. Fulton delivered a few week ago,
Everybody felt the contrast and the few
Radical Feltonites who were present
looked as if they felt it more keenly than
any. The speech, however, were char
teristic of the men as well ns of their re
spective supporters. The one is an nc
complished gentlemen, pleasant, modest
refined, and cultured, and his augments
are addresed to the intelligence of gentle
men. The other is boisterous, ranting,
egotistical and deraagoguical and his
harangues appeal to the prejudice and ig
norance of negroes and weak ^ided white
men.vCol. Dabney discussed the great na
tional questions of importance, embracing
in their range the interests of the whole
people. Felton could not get above his
own self, nor outside the purview of petty
local affairs. Dabneg spoke in behalf
of tiro great principles of Democracy
The burden of Felton’s speech was “ I
William H. Felton, ccce homo 1 Etowah
Bill,’ ‘ Big Injun, me,’ ” and his poo:
ignorant followers hallowed, “ lltizah for
Felton.” Vive hr humbug t
Brother King has cooled off considera
bly since last week. He is not half as
mad as he was the day he addressed the
Democratic meeting on the subject of his
Kingston grievances. Hero is what he
says now:
Now, the Kingston Convention met and
nominated a candidate for this Senatorial
District, but ane of tire counties is not
satisfied, and want to split off, and elect
another man.
Right or wrong would it not be best to
give way to Chattooga for the present, as
she is the smallest county, and let us wait
till next time for a Senator?
This is not the time to be making a big
fuss about it, when there is calumny pres
ent. If you train up your children right,
you can very easily passify them in com
pany.
Have we not company now ? Is not the
whole country looking at us, and tnlking
about how wo are taking on about the
nomination? We should all be ucited,
and work harmoniously together for the
good of our country.
Now, this is good advice and if brother
King had have only had the moral cour
age to give it then instead of the violent
and intemperate harangue with which
he denounced the Kingston Convention,
perhaps the matter would have taken a
diflereut turn. As it is, however, it looks
as if brother King wanted to play with
two bows on his fiddle. Wonder if he
has an eye on the next chance.
We present a portion of Jere Black’s
dissection of Garfield. The letter is
too long to give entire, but we shall
continue it in our next. It shows up
the Radical pharisees in their hue col
ors. Jere, bo it remembered, is no
Rebel, but a Northern mau, horn and
bred. He has the honesty, though, to
Bee thiugs in their true light ami the
courage to show them up. Please read
the letter. We wish our colored read
ers to read it. It will enlighten them
as the origin of slavery in’ the United
States. _
“ Etowah Bill,” junior, heard Dab
ney’s speech, last Saturday night, and
was enthused with his eloquent plea
for Democratic unity and harmony
We do not see how anyone could lis
ten to that speech and not appreciate
its high-toned fairness.
Judge Wright made a speech at Car-
tersville last Saturday, and from what
we can learn made a good impression.
We think, we hazzard nothing in pre
dicting his triumphant election next
Wednesday week.
Come out to-morrow afternoon and
hear old-father Jawcross. He can tell
you more about grapes than any other
man in the State, the head man of bureau
not excepted. He will find a sour bunch
to-morrow week.
litical principles. Such men are to be
honored for at least fair dealing and
honesty.
But how stands Felton ? He says he
is a Democrat; Mnj. Hargrove does not
believe him to he a true or reliable
Democrat, but believes the Doctor to be
just Democrat enough to cariy Demo
crats sufficient, with the Radical sup
port, to defeat Dabney. Such is Har
grove’s policy, and who can blame him
for it? As he cannot elect a Radical,
he wants to elect a man that answers a
Radical policy, and that is to defeat a
true and reliable Democrat.
Mr. Felton’s course is not that of a
Democrat. It is simply that of a man
of vaulting ambition, who wants to be
elected to Congress—no matter how, or
by whom, so he gets elected; principles,
he has none; self is his only object.
And, as such, Radicals will support
such a man, rather than to see a true
and reliable Democrat elected to Con
gress.
We don’t blame Mnj. Hargrove in
the course he sees proper to pursue in
this election, for his object is to defeat
the Democratic party. The man to
blame is Dr. Felton, who takes the po
sition of an insidious enemy, and fights
under any colors that will promote his
selfish purposes. If Felton cannot lead
the Democratic party of this district,
he is for breaking it up. “ Felton” are
his only thought3—“ Felton or disrup
tion !”
We must believe Hargrove true and
honest to his party. We cannot say
the same of Felton.
Such is the situation, as viewed by
A Democrat.
of Floyd, asking Judge Wright to bo
their standard bearer. Of courso the
Judge is always ready to grant favors.
I am surprised ot our old friend the
General, that he could not see the
“point.”
We like you Judge, we like you for
your generosity and hospitality, but
you must come in at the straight gate
and not climb over the scattered walls.
Floyd Springs.
Indiana Campaign.
From every quarter we hear cheering
news of Democratic reorganization, and
a closing up of the ranks for Dabney.
There will not be a greasy spot left of
“ Etowah Bill.”
Harmony in Democracy.
We must say that W. II. Dabney’s
speech on Saturday night was a great
and masterly effort in defence of party
organization, and his manner of treat
ment to those that had differed with
him, had a great influence to cement
and bind the broken links. Would
that this conciliatory manner could
prevail. Then feelings of attachment
would grow for the party, and great
anticipations of its future benefits and
happiness would inspire the people,
fraternal feeling, which ought to be
common throughout all parts of the
country the’ desire to live together in
peace and harmony, to prosper as we
have prospered heretofore under its
control, to hold up to the civilized
world the example of one great and
glorious party fulfilling the high des
tiny that belongs to it, demonstrating
beyond all doubt the party capacity to
rule and govern. These motives and con
siderations will, I confidently hope and
fervently pray, animate us all, bringing
us together,to dismiss alike the question
that has divided us, and consummating
the act of concord, harmony and peace
in such a manner as to heal, not only
one, but all the wounds that have sep
arated and divided us.
Etowaii Bill, Jr.
Dabney, Hargrove and Felton
To the Editor of The Courier :
Can any man believe there could be
a coalition between a true Democrat
and true Radical ? Never. Thier po
litical principles are too antagonistic to
admit of any co-operation in politics
for they are enemies in principles, and
could never act together, so long as one
was an honest Democrat and the other
a true Radical.
Mr. Hargrove, in his letter to Col.
Goodwin, says “ he does not wish Dub-
ney elected,” “and cannot afford to let
him be, with present surroundings.’
Why? Because Mnj. Hargrove knows
Col. Dabney to be a true Democrat, and
one that cannot be tampered with. Mej.
Hargrove is honest in his convictions,
and true in his pol’cy. As he is a true
and consistant Radical, and wants to
see Democrats true to their party and
principles defeated, such is right
and proper with all politicians and
partisans that ure opposed in their pn-
Carrying the Joke too Far.
Editor Rome Courier :—I happened
in town yesterday, and as I was loaf
ing around I met a boy with a card
calling the citizens to gather in a mass
meeting, to meet at the City Hall. I
thought I would go up and see what
was to pay. Col. Spurlock was on the
floor explaining the object of the meet
ing. I looked around about me and
saw Zack seemingly interested. You
can always tell when Zack gets a fresh
bite by his hair standing on ends.
The Col. went on to state that Floyd
County had been cheated out of her
rights at the Kingston Convention. He
showed very conclusively that we were
entitled to the Senator.
He was followed by Gen. Black, who
presented resolutions disregarding the
actions of that Convention, which were
seconed byJP. L. J. May withj a forci
ble speech ia support of them. All
went on charmingly up to this time.
But now comes the trouble. We see
an old tried soldier in the Democratic
ranks, rising in the person of Maj
Cooper, and after getting the attention
of the chairman, he tells the assembly
to go slow. No doubt the Major has
seen enough of the bad effects of the
bolt at the Calhoun Convention to sat
isfy him that it was better to stand up
to the actions of a Convention if we do
not always get what we think are our
rights, thereby saving the organization
of the party, rather than Betting aside
its actions and leaving the field open to
independent candidates, which in plain
words are playing into the hands of
the Radical party. They succeeded in
passing their resolutions and the Hon
A. It. Wright was placed before the
voters of this Senatorial District for
their suffrages at the Oct. election.
Now, Mr. Editor, I want you to un
derstand that there were several of us
from the country that did not vote at
all. And if I had have voted I would
have done as I was told Dr. Farrell
did vote on both sides, for I confess to
you that I was in a quandary. My
reasoning was in this wise: If I vote
to sustain Gamble they say he is the
last of pea lime, and if he should beelec-
ted, Chattooga will come in the next
time and say she lias not had a Sena
tor yet, and that Gamble was just put
forward by the boys for a joke. I can’t
consistantly vote for Judge Wright, for
wo all know he has been fighting the
organized Democracy for years. And
more than that, I want to vote for Dab
ney and you know that Wright & Dab
ney are not synonymous words in the
Democratic dictionary.
Summerville pretended that Chat
tooga was entitled to the Senator, they
kept up a constant firing in that direc
tion, until Floyd held a primary elec
tion, and A. J. King was nominated,
then a few dissapomted persons from
Floyd joined in with tho Summerville
jokers and went down to Bar'ow and
said, see here .sister Bartow, there is a
matter of disagreement between Floyd
and Chattooga aa to which is entitled
to the Senator; and we propose to leave
tho matter with you, as umpire, to set
tle it. See here sister, (getting a little
closer and talking a little lower,) can’t
you say that Chattooga is entitled this
time. If you will say bo, we have got
a weak stick in the mud up there, wo
will dress him up and bring him down
and nominate him. You know Floyd
will kick up and put out an indepen
dent. Now you’ll like that, won’t you
sister B. it will help Felton so much.
So the thing is fixed and here comes
a list of voters from the Felton corner
Special Correspondent to the Courier ]
Indianapolis, Sept. 22.—Ex-Gov.
Noyes, of Ohio, while here yesterday,
admitted to J. H. Ridenour, formerly
one of the proprietors of the Journal,
that the political situation in Ohio was
very discouraging to the Republicans,
d all they could do was to fight along
and trust in the Lord. If the Radicals
in Ohio depend on the Lord for help,
they are beaten, sure. The Lord has
no sympathy with that party.
Senator Doolittle was in the city
this evening, en route home. He spoke
at Woithington to-day to a large and
enthnsiastic crowd. The Hon. Thos.
Oakes, the Missouri orator, also spoke
at Worthington. Senator Doolittle
gives it as his opiuion that Williams
will carry Indiana by from fifteen to
twenty thousand majority. He says
that he never saw the people so deeply
in earnest.
Uncle Jimmy Williams p.nd D. W.
Voorhees addressed another immense
meeting at Lebanon, Boone county, to
day. They are both in the city to-night,
and have been called on by a large num
ber of leading Democrats and congrat
ulated on their brilliant campaign
thus far and the encouraging prospects
ahead.
Mr. Voorhees stated to me this eve
ning that his meetings have been per
fectly wonderful in size and enthusiasm.
Messrs. Williams and Voorhees speak
in Franklin to-morrow at a monster
demonstration. They will spend Sun
day in Louisville, and speak at Jeffer
sonville Monday afternoon, and at New
Albany Monday night.
Gov. Hendricks met with a brilliant
avation at Warsaw to-day. It is esti
mated that fully 5,000 voters were
present' Kosciusko county turning out
en masse. Tho governor delivered a
rand and eloquent oration. W. W. O’
Men, of Illinois, and Morgan Weir,
•f Laporte, also made speeches. Gov.
Hendricks left on a special train this
evening for Fort Wayne, where he
speaks to-night.
Gov. G. C. Walker addreesed a mon
ster meeting at Washington to-day.
He delt only in cold, hard facts, and
appealed to reason, and not to passion
ana prejudice. His speech had a tel
ling effect.
The Hon. Dan. Cameron, of Illinois,
spoke there to-night to a tremendous
crowd in the opera-house. His rin
ging speech made votes for the Reform
party as represented by Tilden and
Hendricks.
Fivo thousand live, earnest, rattling
Democrats greeted Senator McDonald
in Rochester to-day. To-night there
is a grand torchlight procession wen
ding around the tow, Hurrah for Ful

Judge Gooding is speaking to an
immence concourse of people in Frank
