The Election on Wcdnes
day.
Before the issue of another Ap
peal the election will hare passed.
The new constitution will have
been ratified or defeated, the capi
t*l located and members elected to
the next General Assembly through
out the State. Seldom, if ever, the
voters arc called upon to pass upon
go many important issues on the
same ballot. Every voter is inter
ested in these issues, and we hope
their importance may prompt every
one to a lively interest. In this
county, in addition to tho impor
tance of the above, we have an ex
citing contest over a seat in the
lower House. We feel confident of
the success of McDonald, if his
friends will but do their duty.—
Let everybody, opposed to our
county being controlled by one
man, go to work and aid in the
election of McDonald.

The Capital Question.
We publish below a few extracts
from a letter written by the lion.
Thomas M. Norwood, of Savannah,
to Hon. Jas. A. Green, of Milledge
ville, on the capital question, for
which we ask an impartial perusal.
That his reasoning is good none can
deny, and that his judgment is unbi
ased all must admit, as lie owns no
stock in Millcdgeville or Atlanta—
hence gives his views as to what is
best for the tax payers. Hear him :
Should Atlanta continue to be
the capital, a New State House
must, sooner or later, be built.—
When the State begins to build a
new State House in Atlanta, or
elsewhere, we will see surrounding
it, without using a telescope, more
rings than Saturn bus. There will
be a ring in stone, a ring in brick, a
ring in wood, in iron, in gla-s, put
ty, lime, sand, chairs, inkstands
and spittoons—and all these rings
will, by magic, be changed to gold,
which must be supplied by the far
mers who are the fountain head of
taxes. And should anew capital
be built the State must build it.—
Atlanta ought not to bear the whole
expense, and is under no obligation
to build one any better than the old
capital. But the State cannot in
crease her debt under the proposed
constitution ; and hence, the Legis
lature, to build, or assist Atlanta
in building another capital, must
levy a tax for that purpose. As
for myself I have taxation enough.
Which is more convenient tor
the whole people, Atlanta or Mil
ledgeville ? Milledgeville is nearly
central ; Atlanta is in thp northwest
quarter of the State. A central
point equalizes travel, equalizes the
mileage of legislators, equalizes the
expense of citizens having business
at the capital, and equalizes the ex
pense of parties having cases in the
Supreme Court. The lawyer who
travels throe hundred miles to at
tend that court, if he understands
geography and addition and sub
traction, charges more than to go
one hundred miles; and hence, par
ties litigant in Southern Georgia
are taxed higher to obtain justice
than those above Atlanta. My
brother lawyers who attend the
Supreme Court, lam informed fa
vor Atlanta. This is natural. At
lanta is much larger than Milledge
ville ; has more attractions, and, be
ing a commercial town, more peo'
pic go there. And a lawyer attend
ing the Supreme Court wants
amusement while waiting for an op
portumty to enlighten the court. —
Speaking as a lawyer , I prefer to
attend the Supreme Court in Atlan
ta for many reasons. But my pref
erence or convenience as : lawyer
is no reason why I, a9 a citizen,
should vote to inconvenience a ma
jority of my follow citizens.
Any one who has served in ihe
Legislature at Milledgeville and in
Atlanta knows that deliberate, well
matured legislation can be better
done in Milledgeville. It is useless
to argue a proposition as plain as
this. Any one who would maintain
that legislators are as calm, reflect
ive and undisturbed in a driving,
bustling, active city with thirty
thousand inhabitants, and full of
amusements and temptations as all
large cities are, as they are in a
quiet town of one'tenth the popula
tion, would see no difference in the
distracting force of a cyclone and a
Zephyr. More statutes have been
sent forth since the war slipshod
and “half made up” than were
framed in Milledgeville during
sixty years. And yet the legisla
tors since the war were as intellec
tual as those before.
But there Ss still another fact
which should influence every Geor
gian in deciding whether the capi
tal shall again be in M'lledgeville.
It is the fact that Georgians did
not remove it to Atlanta. tVe
(Georgians) had no voice or hand in
that work. The brave, patriotic
citizens of Atlanta opposed the
deed. Why ?It was a part of a
great wrong—a alupenduous in
famy—a natural crime. It was one
act in a drama which no true Geor
gian can ever think of without in
dignation and scorn—a drama of
which the evil doe's are now
ashamed. Our State was invaded
by the military after the war was
over—our beloved Governor driven
from the executive mansion—cur
treasury seized—expenses incurred
and taxes wrung from us to pay
them—our people compelled to de
posit ballots with fettered hands,
in mockery of free choice, in voting
lor a constitution framed under
military guard—and framed, too,
by a convention commanded to
assemble, and composed, excepting
an honorable minority of true,
brave Georgians, of adven
turers, carpet-baggers, aliens, camp
followers, brigands and thieves. —
And by such a villainous congi ega
tiou—rsuch ‘‘eutpurses of the State”
among other wrongs, and against
the protest of all'good and true Geor
gians, the capital was changed- Is
this fact forgotten already by free
men ? Have nine years obliterated
this memory and reconciled us to
this monstrous deed ? If this be seu
timent, then, what was it that im
pelled the people to call a conven
tion to stamp out the constitution
Which was then forced upon us ?
Could we not have altered that con
stitution by amendments, and have
thus changed its objectionable pro
visions? Then why call a conven
tion ? It was to bury out of sight
that symbol of our degradation. —
And shall we do that work by
halves ? Was not the removal of our
capital a part of the same infamy?
And shall we leave that monument
of our dishonor standing? No people
can be great who do not cherish
historic end heroic memories. We
have many connected with the old
capital. We have but few connec
ted with the new. Acts of tyranny
were done to us in the new capital
which no Georgian can recall with
out indignation. Against all such
deeds Atlanta fought to exhaustion
The whole State so accords, and
gives her all praise and honor. She
fought against removal But re
nioval’was effected, and that through
tyranny and fraud; and that memory
is before us. There the Republican
party—made up of such material,
with a few intellectual exceptions,
as Falstaif s regiment —forced us to
go; and there the rump of that par
ly is trying now to hold us. There
a man— wliocninc with the invader—
backed by musketry, sat down oa a
Democratic Legislature, ami smolh
ered it by sheer avoirdupois. There
the same power held us fast until we
were robbed of millions.
These are historic, but not very
heroic, memories. These and many
others arc memories which cluster
around the Capitol building in At
lanta like the loathsome serpents
around the head of Medusa. They
are hideous, and the children
should not select the building in
which their ancestors were crucified
to make it their home forever. At
lanta is, in no sense or way, respon
sible for these deeds, and it would
not, in the remotest degree, be a
•reflection on her to remove the cap
ital. On the contrary, it would be
a graceful act, were the citizens of
Atlanta to say to their fellow citi
zens ok Georgia : Our capital was
removed by iorce—the act was ty
rannical—we struggled against it—
it was forced upon ns—and we
join you in returning to '.he conse
crated spot where we all can truly
say, “Wo are in the house of our
fathers, our brothers, and our
companions, and we are at home to
stay, thank God 1”
Capt. Tiiinlin’s Record.
Mr. Editor: I have read the
communications published in the
Appeal and Messenger, touching
Capt. Tumlin’s candidacy, and ask
space to add my views briefly :
The political status of Randolph
county is a subject of ridicule in
every part of the State. Go where
you will you are jeered and tanta
lized for tolerating the spirit of dis
cord known to exist here. Now, it
is the duty of every good citizen,
whether white or colored, to aid in
restoring peace and harmony in our
county, and break down this ever
lasting wrangling for office.
In tiie first place who is rcsjron
sible for this confusion ? Who is to
blame for the disorganized condi
tion of the labor of the county ?
Such confusion does not exist in any
t of the adjoining counties. Are the
people of .Randolph more turbulent
than those of other sections ? Then
why this oft repeated scramble for
office ?
Mr. Editor, you may sift it
through, view it from whatever
standpoint you may, and if you con
sider fairly all the facts you will be
forced to lay the blame at the door
of the guilty person —Capt. Tumlin.
Review his acts fairly for ten years
and render your verdict. In 1868
the county honored him with a seat
in the lower house, not through
merit, as he was a stranger and but
recently located in our midst, but
because he was available. This pro
motion created such an inordinate
thirst for office that he sought in
subsequent elections to set aside or
defeat the expressed wish of the
people of the county. In 1874 he
opposed and defeated the regular
nominee of the party that had given
him birth. All well remember how
he did it. In 1576 he had the bold
ness to assert, as I have been in
formed, tliat unless the to iVinth n
nominated the man he suggested
lie would burst the actions of that
body. What was the result ? In
1877 he agaiu appears upon the
stage and is seeking to force him
self upon tho people of the county,
lias he not been honored sufficient
to his merits? Is he the only mau
iu our county capable of represent
ing us ? Like a spoiled child, he
has been petted, humored, tolerated
until it has developed a combination
of impudence, brass and presump
tion, envied by but few. It was
known by all, months ago, that lie
was a candidate for the legislature
—that he was stocking his hand to
that end. Over five hundred of us,
wno have had enough of Tuinlin,
and prefer that the people should
select their own representative, pe
titioned J. J. McDonald to allow
the use of his name for that office.
Having no aspirations, but appre
ciating the sentiment of Ins triends,
and in the face of a written request
of over live hundred voters, both
white and colored, proposed to Capt.
Ttimlin, that if lie would withdraw
that he (McDonald) would not suf
fer the use of his name, and that if
the people, left free to select their
candidates, chose him (Tumlin) lie
would cordially support him, and if
he (McDonald) was nominated he
would not accept. This proposition
was made through pure motives,
and repeated often at different
times, for the purpose of prevent
ing confusion and disorganization of
the labor of the county, as well as
to allow the people to select a man
of their choice to represent them.—
I low did Capt. Tuinlin treat this
proposition, coming from a man,
bearing the petition of so large a
number of voters ? His reply was :
“McDonald, I can t accept your
proposition—lam obliged to go to
the Legislature
Now, Mr. Editor, have I not fair
ly, honestly reviewed Capt. Turn
lin’s record ? Could it not have been
made even more apparent, and that
without exaggeration, that Tumlin
attempts to rule or ruin ? His
fiiends, “ strikers,” those whom he
controls by mortgages, and all oth
ers having him “ enshrined in their
memory,” can but admit my review
of his history, since his first promo
tion, as correct.
This being true, I appeal to eve
ry mao in the county to arouse him
self and go to work and defeat him.
Some of his friends admit that three
fourths of the whites are opposed to
him, but they hope lo succeed, ow
ing to the fact that McDonald’s
friends are not working. If this be
true, and Tumlin is elected it will
be your fault. But a few more
days remain before the election, and
if the time is improved, Randolph
will be rid of a man,, politically,
who has done more to create strife,
dissensions, and disorganize labor,
than any ten men in the county. —
Will you do it ? Then be up and
bestir yourself, make one honest ef
fort to redeem your county from
the ridicule that is being heaped up
on it. Defeat Tuinlin this time and
he will never disturb you again.—
Elect him, by your indifference, and
where will it terminate? If our cit
izens will but do their duty they
will never be disturbed again by
Capt. Tumlin, politically.
