'N c wish every voter in Chattooga to bear in uiin<l, that all of Dr. Felton’s de nunciations of ring*,"Cliquy, conventions, etc., are but clap-trap fuluiinutions, in or der to lead astray tho people from the main points ot issue. Dr. Felton said before the mooting of tho Calhoun convention, two years ago, that if Col. Dabney was nominated, he would not run. But Mr. Trammell was nominated. Gen. W. T. Wofford an nounced in a speech in Summerville tho other day, that Dr. Felton was put out as a candidate by a few friends in and about Uartersville; and that Dr. Felton had been in a convention sometime ago, on the lino of Paulding and Cass counties. Now, what’s the difference? Doctor Felton has been tho subject and partici pant in rings, cliques, caucuses, conven tions and the like, nnd been put out as a candidate by such, tho same ns Uol. Dabney has been nominated by a convention, oniy that Col. Dabney has been put forth by acclamation of the peo ple of the district in convention assembled. Does it not appear that Col. Dabney is the people’s candidate, while Dr. Felton is Dr. Felton's candidate, and tho candi didntc of a few people, who, as General Wofford says put him forward? All of tho Doctor’s tirade against rings, cliques, etc., arc designed to prejudice the popu lar mind against the regular nominations of tho party, and to gain himself votes for a return ti Congress. Let every voter in the county bear these things in mind, and vote accordingly. A Suggestive Fact. There is one fact that should attract, nnd be suggestive to every tiue patriot. It is this; everywhere candidate has rue or is running for office, republicans are either directly or indirectly giving them aud comfort, lt was so in this the 424 Senatorial district last election. It aao in the 4th Congressional district, in swhieh Henry W, Hilliard is an Indepen dent It is so in this the 7th Congres sional district, in which Hon. William 11. Felton Is an Independent Can any other reason bo assigned for this fact, other than it is the purpose and desire of the republican party to break up the organized democracy, if possible? This is no time to temporize, or to be led astray front the path of duty, by or through personal preferences. W hile we may prefer one man above another on some accounts, yet, in socking or deter mining out country’s host interest, we should always give weight to our “pre ferred” man’s surroundings and associa tions. The old adage, “tell me tho eom- pany you keep, and I’ll fell you who you I gre, ' is a very true oue, and- Well to political nt*- .‘applies as ! vide* 1 _ce-neckers, as to indi- j ... and social every day life. If a man | professing to he a democrat, and seeks the favor and associations of republicans, there are prompting motives, and correl ative advantages and profits in expeetan cy for support rendered. Such being the case, (he cause of democracy is in that ratio impaired. This being the ease, it is a very impor tant matter that every democrat stand by his colors, and suffer net himself to he i led astray by the error of the wicked re publicans, who would distract the demo- i cratic ranks. Then let every man on 1 7th irist., cast his vote for D'eney, TilJon and Hendricks. ltcmocrats of Summerville district! are you ready for the contest? Let us appeal to you by your past triumphs to he up and doing. Remember that the destiny of yourselves and families, depends on your action next Tuesday. True and tried veterans of Trion dis trict! show your faith by your works, and give a united vote for Dabney and Tilden. Gallant men of Teloga! make one grand rally in behalf of our nominees. Work diligently, an 1 victory is yours. The “tenth legion” Democracy of Al pine! who never yet faltered in an organ ized fight, come up as one man on the day of the election, and cover yourselves ail over in glory in battling for Dabney and Tilden. Democrats of Dirtsclier! we know you aro panting for the fray! March on in solid column, and you will rejoice the hearts of your brethren all over the coun ty, on the evening of the election. Untorrified and gallant Democrats of Ooldwater! ever ready and ever willing to be thrown in the fiercest part of the battle make one grand surge all day long next Tuesday, and rejoice the hearts of every friend of Dabney and Tilden. Undaunted ami solid column Democrats of Seminole! you cannot fail to do your duty. Breathing the pure zephyrs that have swept over your brethren of Ala bama, you will rise in your might and majesty, anil give a rousing vo'c for Bub ncy and Tilden. Men of Dirttown! noble sons of noble sires! you never waver in the discharge of your duty. Come weal or woe, Dirttown stands by her colors. Buckle on your armor, and hurry to the front, and let your battle cry he victory, or a hard fight. One more long pull; one more strong pull, and one everlasting pull and Dabney and Tilden are triumphantly elected. Dear Democrats of I laywood! although mentioned lust in the order of districts, you me tha first in our heart's warmest affections. A mighty conflict awaits you, and your brethren all over the county, arc feeling a lively interest in your suc cess next Tuesday. Be vigilant! be at your post of duty, if it is in shooting dis tancc of your enemies, and Heaven grunt that such u victory may bo gained by you in this contest, that one loud huzza may go up from Broomtown and Chattooga vallius that you muy be able to hear at Subligna, and the regions round-about. Gain such a victory, Democrats of Hay wood, for Dabney and Tiiden, that the Democracy in other districts will be pour ing fresh oil on the Democratic altars all over your district. Three cheers for Hay wood! may she redeem and regenerate herself next Tuesday. ♦ •*- “Dabney lie; an unqualified lie; origi nated by Dabney men to injure me.” Wo deeply regretted to hear such language used by l>r. Felton, when inter rogated about the report which has been so widely circulated, that the door of the court house was intentionally closed against him, when he caiue here to speak on the 14th of September last. How sad to hear such language used by a holy man of God in a stump speech. O temporal 0 mores! Oh Dr. Felton.’! How much better it would have sounded to have said, “Gentlemen, I never heard this report before, and if it hs been cir culated, it was done without my knowl edge or consent.” It sounds harsh to hear the lie given under any circum stances, even when wicked men under the influence of mean whiskey, resort to it, but to hear a professed follower of the meek and lowly Savior, using such lan guage, and without proper occasion, the heart sickens and every admirer of Chris tianity should drop a tear. We would advise Dr. Felton to read carefully tho 11 th verse of the 6th chapter of First Timothy; “But thou, 0 man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.” The Uartersville Repress says: “Mr. Samuel Sheats, the Republican candidate for Congress, authorizes us to state that any charge to the effect that he is run ning in the interest of Uol. Dabney is an infamous falsehood, and we believe it. He who says that he is so employed Sheats denounces as a liar.” Let everybody fully understand, that Mi Sheats is running in his own interest, and for the interest direct and emphatic of his own , irty, and not for Ctl. Dabney as is falsely alleged. .YflIE FOR DABW i Y ’ AND HENDRICKS NEXT TUESDAY. A Stime and Scandal. It will be soen by the following order, that the United States urmy has been ordered to South Carolina: War Department. Washington City, October 17. General IV. T. Sherman, commanding iJnittsd Statm Arm;/ : Dear Sir —ln view of the existing con dilioti of affairs in South Carolina, there is • possibility that the proclamation of the president of this date may he disre garded. To provide against such a con tingency, you will immediately order all the available force m the military divi-'iun of the Atlantic to report to ,’,en. Rugcr, commanding, at Uoiumbia, South Caro- I <t|i, a;al instruct that officer to situate tits troops in such localities that they may be most speediiy and effectually used in the case of resistance to the authority of the United States. It is to he hoped that a collision may thus he avoided, but you will instruct Wen. Huger to let it be known that it is the fixed purpose of th t govern inent to carry out fully the spirit of the proclamation and to sustain it by the military force of the general government, supplemented, if necessary, by the militia of the various States. Very rcspectfulty, Your obedient servant, J. D Cameron, Sec'y of IV ar. The question very naturally arises, why so? Is the State insurrectionary? Not at. all. Several of the most prominent Judges, of the Supreme and Superior courts of the State, hear testimony to the good order existing throughout the State, save an accasional outbreak precipitated by the Republicans themselves. But under the pretense that colored Republicans in the Slate will not he al lowed to vote in accordance witli their honest convictions, the whole army of the Union is ordered tluther to enable them to do so. If South Carolina is republican as is claimed for it, does it not seem strange that it will require the entire National army to enable the majority to exercise their electivo franchise? Are the many afraid, or intimidated by the few or by a minority? No; that is not the reason. The true reason, as we think, is very justly and truly stated by the New York Herald in these words: “Three parties are in the field—one for Hayes and Chamherland, one for Tilden and Hampton, and u third for Hayes and Hampton. To the last names a consider able number of prominent and influential republicans belong, and under their guidance and instruction large numbers of colored men have determined to vote that ticket.” And “this federal inter ference attempts, and is meant to deprive them of that right. It. not only deprives th, >ni, but it also interferes with the rights of those negroes, very considerable in number, who mean to vote the democratic ticket outright, Tilden and all.” In short, the whole matter is intended so to interfere with the free exercise of tile poor colored people, and a certain cltss of whites, so-as to awe them into subserviency to vote for Chamberlain. Is it not a shame and a scandal on the great government of these United States to lower its dignity to interfere in a parti san candidate, who has shown himself so entirely unworthy the position ofgovernor of a State? The people aro being pro scribed by the President, by the issuance of this order. Oh ! shame. We earnestly desire our readers to pon der well the following from a cor respondent of Freeman s Journal, upon the Presidential campaign: “Can you-conceive of a more appalling calamity which could befall this unfor tunate country, at this time, than the loss of the reform party's majority in the House of Representatives? It would be a ratification of all tho extravagance and corruption which have disgraced the past. It would he virtually saying to the robbers who have so long held the country pros trate at the feet—proceed with your work of destruction ; you have authority to assign and deliver to yourselves and friends all that remains unstolen of the public lands and other property, to tax the impoverished people to your heart’s content, and to do whatever else in the premises you may see fit. I believe it would be the hell which would summon tho noun try to prepare for general bank, ruptcy- Pestilence and taurine would he welcome visitors in comparison with it. Sorely merciful heaven will spare us such an affliction. “1 say, therefore, in full view of the work which is before us, let us strain every nerve and leave no honorable means untried to bring to the ballot-box the very last vote for the Tilden and Hen dricks reform ticket, and let us rest sati fied with nothing less than that, foi in that alone lies our safety. “That good friend ot the human race, the author ot that marvel of State papers (the Declaration o! Independence) among many other valuable legacies, left us this: ‘The people must make their selection between economy and liberty on the one hand, and profusion and serritude on ihe other.’ ” Glorious Tidings. The soul-stirring news comes up from every quarter that Tilden and Hendricks are on gaining ground. Late advices represent the gtoat Northwest ia a blaze for them, and New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and the entire South set down as certain. The day of deliverance is near at hand, shout, wo are j on gaining ground.” ! Remember the election is next Tuesday : the 7th of November. Don’t go poking up to the polls on Wednesday to vote and j say yuu did not know it was oriTuesdav! Major Hargrove is the most active, zealous and untiring supporter of Doctor Felton in Floyd county, if not in the dis trict. He is making speeches for him, and using his entire influence wherever , he can to secure the election of Felton. Ladies ! Dear Ladies!! see to it that your husbands, brothers and lovers are at the polls next Tuesday. Don't provide dinnci fur them on that day, until they can assure you they have voted for Dab ney and Tilden. See that your neighbors, white and colored, who are for Dabney and Tilden, are provided with a conveyance to the polls. Isit the Vigilance committees go QUt into the highways and hedges, and see thrt no voter remains at home. Will the proper authorities in Haralson and Paulding counties, please let it be known how they vote this time. Gov. Smith had to send a special messenger two years ago to get their official vote, i Please send it irt early, and with 500 ma jority for Dabney and Tilden. Let every Dabney and Tilden man rise bright and early on next Tuesday morning, and after offering an humble, fervent prayer for the success of our cause, get his breakfast and hasten to the polls, and “vote early and often” for Dabney and Tilden.” The editor of the Uartersville Etc/,rest, says Z. B. Hargrove has admitted to him both verbally ami by letter, that he did write that letter to Col. Goodwiu; and adds, “No democrats can be deceived as to the purpose of Major Hargrove in aiding in the split in the democratic party.” Zaek Hargrove praises Felton and urges the people to vote for Felton, ami Felton praises Hargrove and extols him to the skies as being a gentleman of me first water. Cause: Zack wants to retain the Rome Postoffiee, and Felton wants Hargrove's influence to get hack to Con gress. Zack tickles Felton, and Fulton tickles Zack. Some writer has said: “When a man wants office had enough to become an In dependent candidate, it is about time to put a fly plaster on his spine.” If this be so, and the remedy proposed be decided upon, the doctors throughout the land may find it a profitable business. We believe it is orthordox that a spin il affection disjoints the mental faculties, and causes the afflicted one to say and do many things ho would not otherwise do. If so, the sooucr the Independent “strike in,” or fever be arrested the better; and an early application of the “fly plaster on the spine" is suggrsted. -*• ♦ •. While Sam Sheats is the regular nomi nee of tho republican party for the 7ih Congressional district,-Maj, Hargrove will not vote for him for reasons which lie says he will not now mention, hut abuses Dabney; hut extols Dr. Felton to the skies, and advises all republicans to vote for him. Why not slick to his own party? Is it not because he sees no chance lor the election of Sheats, and that he has formed an “alliance both offensive and defensive witli the Independents,” in order to thwart the election of Dabney, and to promote the election of Felton, on the consideration that Felton secs to it that Hargrove retains t'>o l’ostoff.ee in Rome? And lbr this purpose democrats are asked to ignore Dabney, the regular nominee of the party, and to vote for Felton. Will they do it? The New York Herald , in a leading editorial on "Federal intervention in South Carolina," takes a broad view of the subject, and sees very eleatly that such intervention may apply sooner or later to the North, and gives the following timely wanting to the people: “This question relates not to South Catolina alone. This unconstitutional and dangerous practice of federal inter ference in election goes on now, in the midst of tho canvass, with the consent of of the republican party managers and with the silent as.-etit of the republican candidate for the Presidency. It is a part ol the polity of the party, indeed, its chiet and only policy, for its speakers protes* no desire lor reform. They say nothing of hard money, of civil service abu-es, ot economy; they tell us only oft. "united South,” and boast of their des patch of troops to different States. Are we, then, to have another four years of this perilous interferenceby the federal power in elections? So far as any citizen can toll by readiug the republican party organs or liste: ing to republican speakers such is the determination ot the party leaders. They are determined toreinsue themselves in power by these means. Who shall assure us that four years hence they will not use the same means, the same force, once more to re-elect them selves and their corrupt Southern allies? The question is very grave; it has many serious sides to it. It forebodes dangers so much greater than even the most ‘inspired’republican orators toll us would follow a democratic victory, that, taking their words for it, a prudent voter, having a stake in the country, would risk the democrats rather than such a republican policy,” How Felton Replied. To the Editor of The G(tootle: \\ c do not wish to make ourselves con spicuous by newspaper communications, hut would like to have space for a few thoughts relative to the interrogatories presented to Dr. Felton, for an explana tion as to the report in circulation, that lie was locked out of the court house. We all know that it was not done; never theless, the report was circulated, and the county officers were charged with the offense. Did they not have a right to demand of Dr. Felton an explanation as to its circulation, and especially as to its circulation in Bartow county? Was it not Felton's duty as a candidate for office, asking the free and indepen -1 dent voters for the support, to explain ) coolly and deliberately, without becoming so much irritated, and denouncing it as au unmitigated lie, gotten up by Dabney men for his injury? If he had denied giving aid to it circu lation, or authorizing others to do so, we think it would It ive been received as truth, and been satisfactory to those a-k j ing an explanation. But in the place of ’ that, he charged the whole of it to Dab ney tuen, whom we all know to be inno ! cent of the charge. For we know the I originator, and those who gave it eiitmla- I tion in Chattooga, and know them to be ■ supporters of Dr. Felton Now. we have great respect for Doctor Felton, and especially for the profession ihe represents —the ministry. lie was not troubled until he had made his speech, j thanked the audience f r their good at tention and behavior, and wa ready to j take his seat, whi n the written interrogu ! lories published in last week’s issue were i handed him. He, in place of trying to 1 explain satisfactorily to those who felt they had been wronged by the circulation of said report, denounced it in the strong est and bitterest of terms, as an unmiti gated lie. We think if the Doctor had known that it was his supporters he was denouncing as originating ami circulating an unmiti i gated lie, he would not have done so. We all, of Chattooga county, know that it was supporters of L>r. Felton, who eir eulated the report here, and they them selves will not deny it. If it had been Dabney, Gov. Tilden or anybody else, the way the tiring come up, it would have been the same way. But Dr Felton disclaims having been detained at all on account of the court house being locked, when ho reached it; ami, also all knowledge of raid report, which ought to quiet his supporters, and satisfy those charged with the offense. But were we the originator of the re port, to he denounced as a liar, and among those who circulated it, as eirou laling an unmitigated falsehood, we would think again before easting our ballot for the man who had thus denounced us as a liar. Chattooga. Summerville, Oct. 3d. SH76. The Uartersville Repress says ‘ Plucky little Zaek is the most prominent and conspicuous supporter of Dr. Felton at Rome. Judge Wright, one of the most brilliant orators in Cherokee Georgia, sinks into utter ii s gnifieance beside Hargrove as a champion of Dr. Felton. He is the man most vociferous in his abuse of the organized Democracy after Doctor Felton. He is the man who proposed to Goodwin to form an ‘alliance offensive and defensive with the independents as between Felton and Dabney' hi order to make 'war to the knife' against the Demo cratic party. This is the man whoculuii nated here last Saturday in a Radical speech against Col. Dabney and in favor of Dr. Felton in a ‘war to the knife' against the Democratic party.” And yet there are democrats who will vote for Dr. Felton over Gol. Dabney the regular nominee of the democratic party. liOt every one he careful how he joins the "alliance offensive and defensive with the” radicals “as between Felton ami Dabney.” —-♦ •. As this is the last number of our paper that will be issued until after the election, it is quite important that the county should bestir itself to ea-t a decided ma jority for both Congressional and presi dential interests. The radicals in all parts of the country are makiug desperate ef forts to get control of the House of Rep resentatives at Washington. They have gained five Congressmen in Ohio and three from Indiana. Shall they gain any from Georgia? And will Chattooga con tent herself with sending any other than a decided and positive democrat, one that will be under no obligations to deal out spoils of office by his influence to our op ponents? We put this question to each and every voter: Will you not be up and doing, and use your utmost endeavors to get every man in the circle of your ac quaintance, to east his vote for Dabney, Tilden and Hendricks. Good news come from ail parts of the 7th Congressional District, that the or ganized Democrocy are at work, fighting gallantly for our nominee, hut Col. Dab- I ney is a high-toned, dignified gentleman, who ought to receive the unaninous vote ’ of the Democracy Let his majority be thousands instead of hundreds. COUNTY DIRECTORY. (s’uoil Tcmpltu *.
