Knox, paid our office a pleasant visit
Jay. He reports old Chattooga
all right for Dabney, and claims Al

county.
The following is the official vote of
Chattooga county: For Governor—
Colquitt, 892 ; Norcross, 68. For Sen

Representative—Penn, 582; McWhor

The Methodist church is being white
washed inside, the floor and furniture
being cleaned up. Ab the ladies have
the matter in charge, we may confi
dently expect the work will be well
and neatly done.
We are glad to see the pleasant and
philosophical manner in which the
defeated candidates and their friends
take their defeat. Everything will
work out right, if it is not Wright now.
You may Gamble on that.
The vote in this county was a re
markably small one, the people being
too busy with picking cotton ,to fool
with politics. Upon the whole, we are
not so sure but that cotton will pay
better than politics, anyhow.
Coroner B. P. Aycock hands us a
couple of the largest cotton bolls we
have seen this Beason. They measured
each 58 inches around, and the two
weighed 28 ounces. The cotton is of
the Ellison Prolific variety, and was
grown by Mr. Aycock, on his place
near this city.
Joe Flanegan, a notorious negro char
acter, died yesterday morning. He had
been a a terror not only to the white
population, but to his own race, yet we
hope and have reason to believe he
made his'peace with his God, whom
he had so often sinned against, before
he died.
The Board of Directors of the Fair
Association meets this morning. The
business that will be brought before the
board demands the most earnest con

to be hoped that every one will be
on hand at 10 o’clock.

The vote of Etowah precint in this

being taftflate. The law requires the
returns to be made by twelve o’clock
the next day after the elections. As
the vote in this instance will not change
the result, there is no harm done
by the rejection of the vote, but
there are cases where such a neg

or retiring officers would work a great
wrong to the people.

OPi),OOOjgojd inJflCO to 8780,000.000 qurronoy
in 1870, of id one decade from less than fivo
dollars per head to mure than eighteen dollars
par head. Since tire restoration of peaco, the
peoplo have paid in taxes more than thrice
tho sum of the national debt, and more than
twice that sum for the Federal Government
alone. We demand a rigorous frugality in
every department, and Trnm every ufficer of
the Government.
Reform is necessary to put a stop to the
profligate waste of publio lands and their
diversion from actual settlers by tho party in
power, which has squandered two hundred
millions of. acres upon railroads alone, and
out of: more, than thrice that aggregate has
disposed of less than a sixth direotly to tillers
of tho soil.
Reform is necessary to correct tho omissions
of a IJdptibllcnU (Xibgress and the errors of
oUr treaties and‘Otar diplomacy which fiavi
stripped our fellow-eitixenl of foreign birth
and kindred race, recrossing tho Atlantic, of
the shield of American citizenship, anp have
oxposed our brethren of the Pacific coast to
the inoursionB of a rooe not.spruug from the
same great parent stock, and, in feet, now by
law denied citizenship, though naturalisation
is being neither accommodated to the tradi
tions of a progressive civilisation nor exer
cised in liborty undor equal laws. Wo de
nounce the polioy which thus discards the
liberty-loving Gorman and tolerates tho
revival of tlio Coolie trade in Mongolian
women, imported far immoral purposes, and
ifloDgolian men, held to perform servile labor
contraols, and demand euch modification of
tho treaty with the Chineeo empire, cr such
legislation within constitutional limitation, as
shall prevent the further importation or im
migration of the Mongolian race.
Reform is necessary and can never be
effected but by making it the controlling isBue
of the eloetions and lifting it abovo tho two
false issues with which the offiee holding
class and tho party in power seek to smother
it—tho false issue with whioh they would
inklndli.kcctarian strife in'respoct_ to the
publio schools, of which the establishment
nnd support belong exclusively to the several
States, and which tho Democratic party has
cberishod from their foundation, and is re
solved to maintain, without partiality or
prelarcoaq for any class, sect or arced, and
without contributing from tho Treasury to
any, and the false issue by which thoy seek
to ligh^ anew the r dying embers of sectional
hate. betwapnt kMlred peopled, fence .unnat
urally estranged, but now re-united in oiio
indivisible republic and a common destiny.
Reform is necessary in the civil servico.
Gxperionco proves that tlie efficient econom
ical eonduot ot the Governmental, businoss is
not possible if its oivil servico bo subjeot to
change ut evory oleotion; be a prize fought
for at tho ballot-box; bo a briof reward ol
tarty teal, instead of posts of honor assigned
ior proved competency, nnd held for fidelity
in tho public employ; that the dispensing ol
patronage should neither he u tax upon the
timo of all our public men, nor the instru
ment ot thoir ambition. Hero nguin the
professions falsified >n the performance attest
that tho party in power can work out no
practical or salutary reform.
Relorm is necessary even more in the
higher grades of publio eervico. The Ftcb
ident, Vice-President, Judgos, Senators, Rep
resentatives, Cabinet officers—these and all
others in authority are the people’s servants;
their offices aro not a private perquisite, they
are a public trust. When the annals of Hub
Republic show the disgrace and censure of a
Vico President, a late Speaker of the Iiouso
of Representatives marketing his rulings an
a presiding officer, threft Senators profiting
seoretly by their rotes as law-makars, five
chnirmen of the leading committees of the
lato House of Representatives exposed in
jobbery, a late Secretary of the Treasury
forcing balances in tho public accounts, a late
Attorucy-Generul misappropriating publio
funds, a Secretary of the Navy enriched or
enriching friends by per contngo levied off
the profits of contractors with his depart
ment, an Ambassador to England censured
in a dishonorable speculation, the President’s
private secretary barely escaping conviction
upon trial for guilty complicity in fr&uda
upon tho rovonuo, a Secretary ot War im
peached for high crimes and confessed mis
demeanors, tho demonstration is complete
that the first step in reform must bo the
people’s clioico of honest men from another
tarty, lest tho disease of one political organ-
sation infest the body politic,, and les^fey
making no change of men or party Wo can
get no change of measures and no reform.
All these abuses, wrongs and crimes, the
iroduct of sixteen years’ asoendanoy of the
Republican party, create a necessity for
reform admitted by the Republicans them
selves; but their reformers are voted* down
in convention and displaced from the Cabinet.
Tho party’s mass of honest voter’s is power
less to resist oightv thousand office-holdors,
its leaders and guides. Reform oan only be
had by a peaceful oivil revolution. We
demand a change ot system, a change of
administration, a chango of parties, that we
may havo a chango of measures and of men.
sumption, and no preparation for resumption,
but instead has obstructed resumption .by
wasting our resources and exhausting all our
surplus income, and while annually profess
ing to intend a speedy return to specio pay
monte, has annually enacted fresh hindrances
thereto. As such a hindrance we denounce
the resumption clause of tho not of 1875, and
wo here domand its repeal. We demand a
judicious system of preparation hy public
economics, by official retrenchments, and by
wise finanoial management, which shall en
able the nation soon to assure the whole
world of its perfect ability and Us perfect
readiness to meet any of' ite promises at the
call of the oreditor entitled to payment. We
believe suoh a system, well devised, and
