The election for Governor, State

In Col. Hoyl, of Terrell, the can

staclc in the way of his election,
except, possibly, that the white
people of his district may not take
enough interest in the matter to
vote. True, he is opposed l»y a
negro, hut the white voters have
only to do their duty, and Col.
Hoyl will be elected by a vole of
two to one.

from this county. A man of intel

now. (Questions of great impor
tance to county and State, will
come before the Legislature at this
session for settlement. We owe
it to ourselves and to our fellow
citizens over Georgia to make the
best contribution we can to aid in
the disposal of these important
issues. There are liefore us
three candidates claiming out
votes, and between these we must
decide. Col. T. J. Perry is the
regular nominee of the conven
tion. The delegates, elevating
him to this position, were sent
here by tlie people themselves, in
their f rimary meetings, where all
had a chance to vote who wanted
to rotv. The meeting of the del
egates resulted in the noininatiot
of Col. Perry. It came to him tin
solicited, and unexpected. Hi
lid absolutely nothing to securi
it. There was no wire pulling
no trickery, no bribery, no any
thing about it. The Conventioi
nominated him, and he accepted,
ihe nomination, expecting tin
white men of the county to sup
port him to their fullest ability

Deak Sib—U’e have the honor
to notify you that the Senatorial
Convention which assembled at
Ciitliliert on the 10th of Septem
tier, nominated you hy acclama
lion as the Democratic nominee
to represent the 11th Senatorial
District in the next Legislature
of Georgia.
Realizing the demand so often
heretofore made, for economy,
honesty anil capacity, in State of
ficers, and believing that you will
represent our District, not only
with ability, hut with fidelity, and
that our people will snost heartily
and cordially ratify your nomina
lion, we ask that you accept the
nomination tendered you by the
convention. Very respectfully,
W. O. Butler, Clay County.

Dawson, Ga., Sept. lGth, ’84.
Messrs. IF. O. Butler auil O. B.
Stevens:
Gentlemen—I have the honor
to acknowledge the receipt, this
evening, of your communication
of this dale, informing me that the
Senatorial Convention for the 11th
Senatorial District, which met at
Cuthhert on the 10th in it., nomi
nated me by acclamation, as the
Democratic nominee, to represent
the District in the next GeueVal
Assembly of the State, auil re
questing that I accept the nomi
nation tendered.
Allow me, gentlemen, to assure
you that I appreciate very highly,
the complimentary allusion to my
self contained in your communi
cation, as well as the high compli
ment paid me hy a Convention of
my fellow-citizen*, in thus tender
ing me the nomination for an hon
orable office without solicitation
upon iny part.
I would lie left no nltcrnativc
hut to accept, under ordinary eir-
_-uinstances, but rc|>orls reach me
to-day. from a highly res|ieetahh-
source, to the effect, that some
mistake was probably made in ap
portioning the vote of the Clay del
egation in your Convention. May
1 not then respectfully suggest,
that it might be more satisfactory
to investigate and advise further?
1 am, sirs, with high respect,
Your obedient Servant,

Col. L. C. Hoyl, Date-on, Ga:
Dear Sib—In reply to your fa
vor of this date, addressed to W
O. Butler aud O. B. Stevens, in
reference to a rumor to the effect,
.hat there was a mistake made ii.
-asting the vote of Clay coitnty
ve beg leave to state the following
facts, to-wit: There being six del
•gates to east the vote of tin
-ounty, four Irom Cotton Hill Di»
trict. and twp from Fort Gainc.-
District. The Bluffton Dislrici
being unrepresented,- and tin
county being entitled to thirteen
votes, it was agreed hy tliecaucue
hat each District was entitled to
14 votes, there lieing three Dis
tricts in the county, which lefl
the entire vote to lie east liy the
Fort Gaines and Cotton Hill Dis
trict. It was then agreed that tin
Bluffton District, should be equal
ly divided hy the Fort Gaines and
Cotton Hill; which made 64 votes
to he cast by each District.‘Then-
being four delegates from the Col
ton Hill District, ami two Irom
the Fort Gaines District, upon a
division of the 64 votes, the four
delegates from Colton Hill were
entitled to ljj? votes each, and the
two delegates Irom Fort Gaines to
•I j votes each. This was the vote
cast from Clay, and there can be
no mistake.
The above facts, as stated, are
true, and it was clearly under
stood hy each and every member
of the caucus, that this was the
way the vote stood.
Yours, Very Respectfully.

SORRELL. Ayt.
Savannah, Ga.
lion. T. J. Perry, of Cuthliert,;
was unanimously nominated, last
week, as a candidate for Repre
sentative, by the Democracy of
Randolph county. The nomina
tion was entirely unsongbt by
Col. Perry, and was a fitting tri
bute to a good man. He was
once a Senator from this, the 9th
district, and made a good record
in the Senate—doing his whole
duty. We extend congratula
tions to the Randolph Democrats,
and hope that their worthy can
didate will lend them to easy vic
tory. "
The Clarksvil|p Advertiser says:
“The time is near at hand when
it will be such a disgrace to lie
seen under tlie influence of, or
deal in the traffic of intoxicating
drinks, that men who hare any
rcganl for themselves or their
families will be ashamed to in
dulge in it. The evidence of this
is plain and undeniable. It is
indeed encouraging to hear from
the counties that are voting on
the liquor question—they give
from 300 to 1.000 majority in fa
vor of prohibition. This plainly
shows that the people of Georgia,
as well as other states, are in ear
nest about the matter, and that
they are determined to drive the
curse from the country. Let
every lover of peace and pros peri
ty. good order, good government,
ami honesty in every department,
social, |H>litical and religions,
cheerfully and determinedly arrajw
themselves against the liquor
traffic and its consequent evils.
Albany is moving in the direc
tion of a good school building for
boys. Send them over to Culb
beet Bro. McIntosh. We have a
splend’d building here and a fine
school that wc arc all proud of.
To all whom it may concern.
All persons interested, are hereby no
tified that if no good cause he shown M
the contrary, an order will be granted
by the undersigned on the 4th d»y of No-
