THE ADVERTISER. advertiser PUBLISHING CO. Cedartown, Ga., August 7. WM. BRADFORD. - Editor Who are the Kefoinitrs! Our South Carolina correspondent seems to think he is in a fine humor this week, but we rather doubt it jet Our remarks upon his former letter switched him off his agricul tural road on to a kind of political side-track, and he runs like it was down grade all the way. We are glad to have his letter, however, and take pleasure in laying it before our readers in full, instead of consigning it to the waste basket, as he, in a private note, suggests that we might do. We are glad to publish it for the reason that we think it voices the sentiments of quite a number of ROWE’S ESCAPE. How it all happened-! deputy sheriff recaptures a hat—An Exciting Chase—Or a rarce— Which! We take the following account o' the escape of Jim Rowe from the Carrol County Times. We trust, for the sake of the reputation of the of ficers in charge of him, that report Communicated. _ . From Snath Carolina- Townville, S. ti, Ang. 1, ’79. Ed. Advertiser: Today we re ceived your paper containing our letter and your criticism upon the same. Yon charge us with “incon sistency.” Wherein ?

It places them in a po-1 p„bli8hed by men who never farmed sition they cannot afford to rest in j a ,j a y j n their lives ? who know noth- unless they are really guilty of gross | ing a bout practical farming ? Men negligence or corruption: After the train had crossed the Chattahoochee river, one and a half miles beyond Whitesburg, it slacken ed up its speed for the purpose of taking on board some tools and ropes used by the railroad bauds in filling up the trestle of the bridge. While it was running quite si wly over the the embankment which had recent ly been made, Rowe jumped out ol the window on the left side of the car, falling on the solt dirt and rol ling some thirty feet down to the bottom of the embankment, from which he run into a thicket close by. This occured while the Sheriff was good and respectable citizens. Tney have become dissatisfied with the way , ... .. »»«* -wT.’-rr - r 1 S3 are growling all along the line. We ■ r ■ J - —■ recognize the justice of their com plaints but do not agree to their plan of settiDg things right It is a very easy matter to sit down and criticise our neighboi’s management of his affairs, but it is not near so eaBj to manage oars so as to escape bis condemnation. Our correspon dent, and many who act with him, became dissatisfied with the way the Democratic party was managing things in Georgia, and they just stepped outsideof it, turned up their noses at it and said abusive and de rogatory things about it to all the neighbors, thereby winning the ap plause and congratulations of the enemies of the party. Others in the party agreed with them that a change was necessary but did not think the way to reform an organization was to withdraw from it and abuse it. More Anor will doubtless admit that these last were just as sincere in their way of thinking as he and his friends were in theirs. This being the case, their differences were really as to the means and not the ends in • view. The “organized” preferred to go to work, purify, renovute and re form abuses: the “Independents” stand off at a safe distance with their nasal organs in an attitude of dis gust and roundly abuse the whole concern. While an “organized” leg islature, backed and encouraged by an “organized" press and party, is earnestly at work exposing and pun ishing corruption and malfeasance in office the “Independents,” through their press, rear back on their pas terns and howl themselves hoarse about rings and cliques and frauds and such. Which is the true re former 7 If our “independent” friends are really iu earnest about this reform - ling bn8iuess we extend them a cor dial invitation to cease dealing in abuse and “glittering generalities” and join hands in the work with the organized, who “mean business.” The Democratic party, by tradition, by precedent, by theory, by practice, and by natural inclination, is fully committed to the policy of economy and honesty in the administration of public affairs, and whenever and wherevo' it finds a man, in its ranks «r cat, who is guilty of violating : this rule it addresses iiself with zeal and alacrity to a correction of the abuse. “Independents” who are faonest in their expressed sentiments will find the “organized” much more zealous and efficient co-laborers in the work of reform and retrench ment than the doubtful company with which they have been associa ted in their recent war upon their old party friends. We infer from the more cheerful tone of our friend’s letter that thie idea has already bro ken in upon his mental vision, like a sunburst of light, and is diffusing, itself throughout his system and 1 making his thoughts of our future politics more genial and pleasant. There is so reason seder the sun' why all Democrats should not pull together pleasantly and amicably,' save that it is to the interest of a few ambitions demagogues do have them do otherwise. Just how long it will take people to find this oat asd profit by it remains to be seen. In the mean time our correspon ded will please forward his obser vations upon the fence law. some water in the same oar. The deputy Sheriff immediately jumped out also, and the Sheriff soon follow ed. When the deputy Sheriff jum- ed out, he was no more than thirty feet from Rowe. According to the statement of those on the train, who were eye-witnesses to the whole affair, when the Sheriff and his dep uty got to the edge of the woods into which Rowe escaped, they halted, as if to hold a consultation of war. Just about this time it occurred to the deputy that he had left his hat in the train and as it was more impor tant in hia estimation to get this than to catch the prisoner, he ran back up the enbaukment, for the purpose of getting it, and when he returned, it seems that the Sheriff had decided to go back to Whites burg, to summons help to catch the handcuffed prisoner, who was in the woods some few feet from them. This is a true history of the affair as we got it from those on the train. The Sheriff and his deputy retur ned through this place Tuesday evening, reporting that they were unable to catch Rowe. SIDE INCIDENTS CONNECTED WITH THE ESCAPE. Sheriff Hewit of this county toid Holcombe, the morning he left here, that if he didn’t mind, that Rowe would get away from him, and Rowe hitnself, we understand, made his boasts that he didn’t expect to be carried to Atlanta by any snch stock i s the Sheriff and his deputy, that he expected -to get away and kill Nunn, who had turned State’s evi dence and he says swore falsely against him. The Sheriff forgot his pistol when he left here Monday morning, and neither he nor his deputy were ar med at the time of the escape. Galimore, who is now in juil here, *.n.l who failed to get a trial last week, was perfectly delighted when he heard of Rowe’s escape. The cause of his joy in the matter, it is thought, is that he believes the escape of Rowe will have the effect of running Nunn out of the country, he being the main witness against him, and without whom it would be a difficult matter to convict him. At Sargant’s factory some five miles beyond the river, three strange men, it is stated, came on board the train, and after walking through it, and looking at each other signifi cantly and smiling, they left going in the direction of the river. The Convict Question, We are net at all moved by the maudlin sentiment to which some men appeal in dealing with the ques tion of the disposition of convicted criminals. They have forfeited their liberty to the State, and we regard it as the duty of the State to choose some mode of disposing of them which shall at once secure them as prisoners and hold them to the pen alty of labor—at the same time hav ing regard to their health, as a mat ter of course. We find that labor was not only the command given by the Almighty to man when He first created him, but was a punishment imposed for the £rst transgression. Those penal laws which conform most closely to the Divine commands and decrees hove generally been found most efficient. The sickly jhilanthropv that would make the lives of convicts even easier and more comfortable than that ol the great mass of honest free-laborers is not worthy the attention of legislator. They owe to criminals only the con sideration of a ■common humanity which foibids cauelty and requires attention to their health and comfort, and at the same time they owe to the State and the people the punishment of crime at the least public expense compatible with what is due>to tliej convict—Atlanta Dispatch. poiisjdering the everlasting bother •nd confusion these wild lands are constantly getting ns into, wonld it pot be a good idea to tame them and {lwu render them more easily man.

No man can tell what changes may take plaoc before the time to select a candidate, aad Ike man who Mindly ties him self to any candidate so long before the time for his election merely in ureases the chances for disappoint ment, and does the democratic party great harm by complicating a qnes tion that ought to be one of the simplest and most pleasant pieces of work connected with the organiza tion.—Constitution. Carey Styles insists that Judge Warner or Mr. Stephens will Le called on to be Governor.

The foolish man takes his wife to a chnrch sociable and spends $5 for ice cream and cake. The wise man allows his wife to serve on the re freshment committee, and when the evening comes he goes to that chnrch sociable with a market basket If his wife has improved her opportu nities, he comes away ahead of the game.—Huntington (bid.) Democrat who write fine theories, which, when reduced to practice, are worthless ? This is “book-farming” of the pres ent day—mere money machines. We said not a word against educat ing farmers. We believe in every body being educated. Wherein, then, consists onr inconsistency ? Still, we insist that we do not want to take onr lessons in farming from men who know nothing practically about it. Our successful farmers are those who make farming their business; who have learned by ob servation and experience bow best to prepare, manure, and cultivate their crops. Sit-in-the-shade theo rists are generally miserable failures. There never was a truer couplet than : “lie that by the plow would thrive. Himself most either hold or drive," In commenting npon that portion ef our letter wherein we gave the political viaws of quite a number of whom we met in onr travels, you state that we are “evidently soured” about something. You’re right. We are indeed “soured.” We are “soured”j over high taxes; we are “soured” because of high salaried officials; men who.make as much by their salaries and stealages in six months as the average farmer would in Bix years. We are “soured” be cause of these extra legislative ses sions; these innumerable little local bills which consume so much of the time of otir Legislature; we are “soured” over the immense gas works now in operation m the capi- tol at Atlanta; we are “sonred” over the corruption in high places. But we feel decidedly more cheerful now. We have just read in your Atlanta correspondence that the “organized” have determined to “regulate their own household.” We rejoice with “exceeding great joy,” at this an. nouucement, for if ever a house hold did netd “regulating” in this world it is theirs. We bid you God speed. Drive out the “money changers;” root out corruption; rtduce the number and salaries of your officers; give us wise, whole some laws, and an. economical ad ministration of governmental affairs; reduce taxation to the lowest possi ble limit. Thus “regulate your household” and you will find the true Democracy all over Georgia rallying to your standard; do this, and even the “Independent” leaders whom you are pleased to denomi nate “arrant political knaves and tricksters” will fight under your banner. Do this and Georgia will indeed have a happy, contented, prosperous people. Do this and Georgia will not care a fig whether she can borrow money at eight or even one per cent. She will not need to borrow any. A prosperous individual don’t often have to borrow money. Neither should a prosper ous State. Yes, Messrs. “Organized,” “regulate your own household”— then the misstou of the ■‘‘Indepen dents’* will have ended. The polit ic il millennium will be at hand. Together we will raise a common flag bearing upon its folds the words: Liberty, cqnaliiy, honesty, economy. Felton wonld doubtless act as color- bearer. Under its folds will be inarching hand-in-hand Toombs and Hill, Dabney and Lester, followed by the lesser “fry” “organized” and “independent.” We are decidedly cheerful. We cannot give your readers the benefit of onr observations on the “fence law” this week, having mis placed our manuscript. Will do so hereafter if desired. More Anon. 4»eaeral Items. lion. RobL W.

Before the war he was a man of unparalleled popularity in his Slate. Some of the poorest members of Congress live at the most extensive hotels; some of the richest at cheap boarding houses. Ben Butler will again be a candi date for Governor of Massachusetts. His success would cause no tears in this part of the world. The Courier-Journal propounds this, conundrum : “Won’t some Re publican organ tell us what became of the $36,000,000 proceeds of the cottou captured during the war? The Treasury books can’t account for its disposition.” Poor men who became rich in office can tell you aH about that. Victor Hugo, talking about age not long ago, confessed that the most disagreeable advance to him was thjt from thirty-nine to forty. “But,* said a friend, “I should think it a great deal better to be forty than fifty.” “Not at all,” replied Hugo; “forty years is the old age of youth, while fifty years is the youth old age.’( State Sews. The general assembly, on Tuesday of this week, concluded its action on the matter of Governor Colquitt’s integrity in indorsing the Northeast ern railroad bonds. That action was his complete and overwhelming vin dication. The searching and ex haustive character oi the investiga tion, the careful scrutiny of the case and the slow deliberation of the find ing render the vindication as shining and complete as it is possible for an acqnitta! to be. Bnt it must be said that the action of the legislature is simply the echo of the great public verdict of the people of Georgia long ago, decisively and universally given. Pnblic opinion had settled the issue. The general assembly has recorded that public judgment offi cially.—Christian Index. It is, we think, very doubtfuj_poV iey on the part of a State to owe heavy debts and tax her people to pay installments and interest, when she has property enough, if sold, to pay her debts and stop the tax and interest. Mr. Renfroe, the State Treasurer, says the State could by selling out her stocks, pay her debts and owe nothing. We are in favor Of this policy—not only becanse. it is a sound policy in itself, bnt be canse the long experience of the State in these matters has shown conclusively that she cannot manage them with financial success.—Colum bus Times.

Fox huuters will be interested to know that the North Georgia Stock and Fair Association has offered a premium of a $100 Durham bull for the three beBt fox dogs in the State. Two grandsons, Messrs.

Few men have been more fortu nate as book-makers thau Alexander H. Stephens, whose “Constitutional View ef the War,” two volumes, has sold, it is said, to the extent of 70,- 000 copies. He has received a roy alty of twenty-five cents a volnme, and has, in consequence, made $35,- 000 from the work—more than most professional authors make iu their entire lives. Commenting upon the News’ announcement that ini'. Ste phens docs not desire to be Govern or, the Albany Advertiser says: “We‘ see no cause for immediate alarm over this thing. There is certainly no disposition upon the part of the people in this section of the State to take advantage of the old man and force the Governorship upon him.” Now let the investigation go on, and let condemnation be showered down when guilt is established. Meantime we see no justice in a tirade of abuse against Govenor Col quitt’s administration.

The struggle in Ohio is one between the dominating ideas of the two great parties on the np- permost questions of the day, and this gave its importance to the can vass.

These lands seem to be the heme of the grape, especially the senppernong variety, and a good vinyard there is a fortune to its possessor. It has generally been believed that a snake could not bite whilst under the water, but the Dublin Gazette in the following shows the contrary ; “A negro boy twelve years old, living on Judge Wolfe’s plantation, a few miles from town, while in bathing last Saturday, felt something bite his foot, and on reaching down felt a large moccasin. He was taken hsme and remained deathly sick until Monday morning, when he died.” Washington is one of the oldest towns in Goorgia. It is said to be the first place ever named after Gen. Washington.

Nobody knows who built it, or when it was built Amid all the changes that have taken place this building remains unchanged—a relic of the past, a memory of other days. The Atlanta Dispatch says: Gen tlemen of experience and acknow ledged ability are arranging their plans for opening a college of high order, for perhaps both young gen tlemen aud young women in this oity. Because it rained on Saturday last, the first of the dog days, many of our State exchanges are predicting rainy weather for the forty days succeeding. Some would-be humanitarians in the Legislature are again agitating the question of feather-beds and fried oysters for our convicts. We think the lease system now in operation the best ever tried. It relieves the tax-payers of a great burden, finds profitable employment for our host of culprits, and has greatly cheapened the construction of railroads and other public improvements. We do not believe in holding a murderer or thief op to public gaze as a perse cuted angel, whose every want and comfort it vs is duty of the State to supply, t hey should be treated humanely, but at the same time pun ished for their crimes. If the plan mapped out by some of our represent atives is carried into operation why in Bix months evvry negro in the State would be a candidate for the cnain-gaog. They care not for the disgrace, so loug as they are fed and clothed at public expense and have little or nothing to do. The lease system keeps them at work, and they are subjected to a treatment no more rigorous than that practiced in the days of slavery by strict planters. It is just what a convict needs, aud is our only hope of keeping down crime. Besides, the sacred honor of our State is pledged to the lessees, and it would be a disgrace to the commonwealth to violate it—Ogle thorpe Echo. A single wedge of pie was left over from dinner.

What has saved by the Democrats has been saved in spite of steady and strenuous opposition from Republicans and the administration ; in spie of continuous howls about the treasonable purposes of the Democ- cy. This illustrates the need of fre- qent changes of administration.

The constant tendency of the public service is towards growth of patronage and power. This ten dency has only been checked in part part by the elections of a Democra tic Congress. A complete change in administration is needed to carry ont the reform as it shonld be. The ex penses of the Government in 1877, outside of charges fordsbt and pen sions, were $114,000,000, nearly doa ble what they were in 1860. Popu lation has increased nearly 50 per cent, but expense iu a double ratio. A change in administration will show that many other reductions can still he made. General Ewing char ged thit the funding contrivances oi Secretary Sherman have been made needlessly expensive to the people and have increased the interest on the public debt at the same time that they huve edded $86,000,000 to its principal. The four per cent, bonds have been bought because they are practically, by being exempt from taxation, six and seven per cent, bonds, and because industry has been so broken down that capital cannot earn four per cent clear in other directions. Investments in these seenrities is not evidence of prosperity, bnt of idle capital seek ing profits. It is desirable to have our bonds held at home, bnt the ea gerness to get them shows that bnsi uess is generally nnprodnctiTe. Si lent mills, fireless furnaces, scanty wages, want of work, swarms of tramps, all attest the snccess of Mr. Sherman in so shrinking and dimin ishing the business of tbe country that -money, aocitmlating in hordes, and fearfnl of all other investments, is eager to take the Cj per cent on interest and exemption offered by the Government rather thau embark o f the dead sea of industry. As to the question of free elections, the Demo cratic party had forced the issne on the repeal of the statutes because the Republicans had swindled the people out of their election in 1876, and stood ready to repeat the fraud in 1880. The army had been used— what guaranty was there it would not be used again ? Supervisors and their bummers bad been paid out of ithe pnblic treasury to force tbe elec tion of Republican Congressmen against the agll of the people. Was it right to leave this party in poses- sion of this power, which has been so much abused ? On this question we have appealed from the President to tbe people. Let tbe latter decide it. If you want to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars each congres sional election to have bayonets around the polls and marshals and spies to inspect and control State elections of officers, vote the Republi can ticket, for the Democracy will never spend a dollar for that service. The power to regulate tbe elections resides in the States, and the Dem ocracy proposes to keep it there. The speaker was not a strict construc tionist, but believed in sustaining tbe distinctive features of the consti tution on which the perpetuation of popular liberty depends. It was the tendency of Republican measures and policy to subvert government by tbe people, and it was to the masses of the people that he looked to op pose those tendencies and keep un sullied for their children the jewel of popular liberty and selfgovern ment.
