CURIOUS THINGS.
GARTRELL FJR GOVERNOR.
W# do not aspire
to reach the
position of a critic. Neither do
wo with to bo considorod a faultfin
der—still wo can't help bavin* »»
admiration lor coisietaacy.
Wo olip the following from tho
Froo Praia, ouo oi the most iotor
anting exchanges wo receive •
“Why don’t tho Atlanta Constr
tution toll the truth about Dr. Fel
ton'? Why don’t it* corretpondonts
toll tho truth? Dr. Felton hat made
fonr or five tpoochot in this cam
paign and not a word ol truth bat
CO me from tho Constitution in ro
card to tho nndiencot that have
mot him at hit speakings. We
diapis* laltthnods, comn in what
over thapo they may.”
Again in thn local column, tame
issue, wo find tho following:
“It was about ton o’clock whan
we rolled into thn pleasant little
village of Canton and fnund the
streets frrly al’ve with people who
were drawn there hy the announce
ment that Dr. Felton would address
them on that day.”
Thin day was Friday, ot court
week, and Dr. Felton bed n orow
dod houto, end ho doubtless made
a good speech. Wo wore sick and
hoard but little of it. Ho seldom
fails to interest bis andienco. We
have nothing to Bay against the
Doctor or bis speech. Thn Doctor
is no common men aud ho makes
no common speeches. But thn
people warn not drawn to Canton
to hour this speech. Tuesday and
Wednesday of tun same week
there were larger crowds drawn
to Caulon than on Friday, and no-
body made speeches.
We ere not defending the Con
stitution, for wn find many things
in that paper inconsistent. And
in reading over our own l’ttle
■beet, wn ssn many foolish things,
some almost ridiculous. Still we
can but think if newspaper men
would quit abusing those who
difi'er with them, ignore extravi-
gance and scurrility, and attempts
to blackmail opponents, by brand
ing them with black-guard end
bateiul names, newspaper morals
would stand on a little higher pint
lorm, and erring brethren could be
diawn back to tho fold.
TbeHemld has no iuteresi in the
gubernatorial race beyond an ear
nest aid banns t denim to sa* thn
state ably served end the baht in-
teiests of thn people placed under
the administration of an honest
and capable chief executive. The
people of Georgia are deeply con
cerned in the matter and are snak
ing for inch n man, \V* believe
that Central Lucius J. Gartrell is
the only one ot the candidates who
fuliy meets thn popular demand,
and tout all good citizens of Geor
gia, of every creed and condition,
should unite to make his eltciio*
sure. By that means can good
government for ell be perpetuated
in Uoorgiu and thn leprosy of ring-
rnle and bossism be washed from
the body of our politics.
All that can be properly deman
ded of any candidate for the popu
lar suffrages is that he shell meas»
ure up to the American—Jeffer
sonian, if you please—standatd
offic.iil qualifications. Sine# th
democratic organization in Geor
gia has been debauched a id the
republican party disorganized, par
ty ties sit loosely upon the conser
vative end patriotic citizens of the
slut*. They ure prepared to give
all men fair dealing nud to demand
tor themselves the right to net ac
cording to their best judgments
end conscience. General Gartrell
asks for his candidacy ouly justice
a fair hearing, a ire# ballot and an
honest count. He stands as the
figure-head of no centralizing in
fluence end of no ring ot poliiica 1
tricksters and office-traders. He
is an independent democratic can
didate, submitting his fortunes ; n
thn canvasi to thn will of the
whole people and his character
and faith to thn scrutiny of nil hon
est men.
That he is hnanst wn hnlinvn his
bitterest opponents will concede.
If they have aught that is stainful
to urge ngainat his private or pu' •
lie character they should announce
it. They cannot impnaeh him as
to that qualification for tho high
position to which he t<sp'res.
“Is he capable?” We believe
that he is not only capable, bet ha
is thn only one of the two candi
dates who is capable to d'sehargo
the lab*rioua and oracling duties of
the office ef governor.
So believing The Herald feels it
to be its duty to support the can
didacy of General Gartrell and to
erg# thn people to elect him by
their untrammelled suffrage.—

Oa Inst Tuesday Miss DuVal pub
licly examined her pnpils in nil the
kraiches that they had been study
ing. The result was coavinciaing
to all, of thorough traiuing, nud
clese attention.
On Wednesday she gavs nn exhi
bition iu that interesting breach—

ilier evidence ot M;ss DuVal as na

she commenced her school. With

MR. 0. D. MADDOX.
On Wednesday, daring thn Cher
okee Supnrinr Court nt Canton, Mr
Maddox was examined by n corps
as able lawyers as could havn
boon formed in the circuit. The
examination was tbnrnugh end
critical, end the rssalt was, that he
was admitted tn thn practice of law
with a most flattering piospect, of
soon becoming nn honor to the
profession.
Mr. Maddox’s uniform polite
ness, genial temperament and much
more than ordinary talent—added
tn these, his unexceptionable mor
els. steady habits and studious
proclivities; eminently fit him to
make a demonstrative mark, in tho
profession at na early day. Those
having matters of litigation to en
trust to a capable and reliable at
torney, will find Mr. Maddox loca
ted in Canton.
PKOVE IT BY MOTIIEK.
While driving along the
street one day last winter in
winter in my sleigh, a little
boy six or seven years old,
asked me Vhe usual question,
“please sir may I ride?”
1 answered him, “Yes, if
you are a good boy.,’
He climbed into the sleigh,
and when I again asked,
“Are you a good boy ?” He
looked up into my face and
said, “Yes sir.”
“Can you prove it?”
“Yes sir.”
“By whom?”
“Why; by my mother,”
said he promptly.
I thought to myself here is
a lesson for boys and girls.
When a child feels and know.*
and feels that mother not only
loves, but has confidence in
him or her, and can prove
their obedience, truthfulness
and honesty by mother, they
are pretty safe. That boy
will be a joy to his mother
while she lives. She can
trust him out of her sight, feel
ing that he would not run in
to evil. I do not think he
will go to the saloon, tire prize
fight or the gambling-house.
Children who have praying
mothers, and mothers who
have children they can trust,
are blessed indeed. Boys and
girls, can you “prove by moth
er” that you are good? Try
and dc*ervethe confidence of
your parents and every one
elae,
