FOR REPRESENTATIVE: jas. j. McDonald. 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. Oranges sell in Macon at 25 cents per dozen. Kellogg has been seated as U. S. Senator from Louisiana. Last year England imported over $10,300,000 worth of eggs. The Greek Church tolerates neither organs nor women’s voice. The Central railroad has put air' brakes on some of its locomotives. On the farms in Missouri corn is selling at fifteen cents per bushel. It is reported that Bob Toombs has bought Mrs. Kimball’s interest in the H. I. Kimball House. Among the Russians no woman oan enter the sanctuary of the priests without desecrating the building. Tho grand jury of Clarke county have forbidden the use of the court house for political meetings. A strong movement has been in- augurated in North and South Car olina in favor of the whipping post. The Tennessee Methodist Con ference resolves not to admit any clergyman w'lio uses tobacco. W. 11. Tison, of the firm of Ti son & Gordon, Savannah, Ga., died in that city on Saturday last. Sc ;th Carolina talks of aboli*h ing trial justices and establishing the county court system. Aleck Stephens says: “I would rather be hanged in the United States than live in any other coun try.” The Monroo Advertiser says : 11. A. Bennett, of Jackson county, aged fifteen, picks 452 pounds of cotton a day. There are 99,415 dogs iu Geor gia, and they destroyed between April 1,1864, and April 1, 1875, 18,625 sheep. The agricultural population of Georgia is 900,000 souls, and the number of acres in cultivation is a trifle over 600,000. Taking the increase since 1870 as a basis, the population of the United Estates will be 46,000,000 in 1880. Prussia is the only civilized nation that will outnumber it. There are at prepent, sis hundred and eighty one ir.mates of the State Asylum in Alilledgeville one hun dred of whom are colored- The new arrivals are alarmingly fre quent. The New Q.'teana Cotton ex change is taking steps to raise a fund to send Gen. John P Gordon, United States Senator from Ueor gia, to Europe, when the regular session of Congress closes next spring, as a representative of the material interests of the New South, to invite the attention of the O-d World to the fact that these fu tile States are flow finally pacified and reorganised upon a free labor : basis, and are consequently anxious to receive and to foster European j capital and labor, 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. Cap. New Advertisements. Randolph Sheriff Sales.
