Cut These Off. i
The Record does not desire to
be dictatorial or offer useless ad-
vice to the legislature, but if that
Honorable body will pardon us.
we desire to say in all sincerity thai
we do not believe that they have
done what they could have done or
ought to have done to lessen
the burden of the tax pay-
ers of -Georgia, It
spent nearly all of their fit tv
days without having materially re¬
duced the expenses and appropria¬
tions, when too, the people of the
State demand it and need it so bad¬
ly. The pension should be given
to needy and indigent soldiers and
widows, and none others—thev
have increased the appropriations
several thousand dollars for this,
when it should have been the re-
verse. The school fund is cut on-
ly $200,000, which should have
been at least double or more. Let
those who are able to send their
children to the higher colleges of
the state for education pay theii
tuition' and for running those
schools.
We notice that the salaries of
the Railroad Commissioners, (there
are three) have each been reduced
$500 per annum and they are to bt
elected by the people.
We think two of them useles*
luxuries to the state. There shoulc-
be only one, and he should be ap¬
pointed by the governor, who
should hold him accountable, and
who should cut off' his official head
when at any time he should became
negligent or derelect in his duties
as commissioner. Every time a
lawyer had to be paid for statt
work it should come out of the At¬
torney General’s salary, and tht
Comptroller General should not bt
allowed to draw three or four sala¬
ries at one time. We understand
that he draws, beside his salary as
comptroller of $2500, a salary as
insurance commissioner, another as-
bank examiner, in all making hn
salary from $10,000 to $15,000 a
year. $2,500 is more than the pres¬
ent incumbent is worth.
It is useless to enumerate tht
leaks in the state treasury or tht
many long, bony fingers which art
now and have been for years milk¬
ing the state of Georgia.
Cut off the fingers and the milk
ing will cease.
The following ticket has been
handed us for publication. For
Mayor—W. J. Hayes. For Coun¬
cil—H. M. Payne, B.R.Hill,D. J.
Simpson, Jno. W. Owen, W. L.
Vickery. For Clerk of Council—
E. R. Davis.
The Record would be glad to
publish more of them, to see how
the sentiment of the community
stands—or in other words, to see
who are the choice of the people.
We want to see the next council
do something to give them everlast¬
ing fame or everlasting something
else—but we hope it will be tame.
A correspondent of The Record
says in a communication that vve
need and want a white primary
for municipal officers. We can set
no objection to this; in fact, vve
rather favor a primary. Let the
citizens of Toccoa say what they
want. The colums of the Record
i» open to them. There has been,
heretofore, too much buying and
selling of the fioting vote—too
much whiskey paid out for votes
right here in Toccoa. We are op¬
posed to this method; vve want to
see a clean and fair election, and
the best and most progressive men
elected.

A WHITE PRIMARY.
Editor Southern Record.—
Every good citizen of Toccoa will
agree with you that this is a critical
period in the history of our city.
The time, wherein vve must
choose whether we shall go to sleej
or he a city has come.
Today, we must decide between
prosperity and retrogression.
The next mayor and council is
expected to do great things for Toc¬
coa, and there must not be a single
penurious “skin flint” in its mem¬
bership. We want live, progress¬
ive men, who are not afraid of pub¬
lic opinion, and who desire, by ; m-
provement and progress,to enhanci
tie value of property in Toccoa,
and induce good people to coine
and live with us.
In order to get a good council,
1 white primary is absolutely nec¬
essary.
Let us have a white primary,and
stop our shameful practices in mu¬
nicipal elections. Citizen.
The Georgia legislature has con¬
ferred upon gallant Tom Brumbv

der command of Admiral Dewey,

For a sense of freedom and joy profound

And it’s ga,y as a town can be,
And the house ou the height where the

From The Elberton Tribune.
Judge N.L. Hutchins, of Lavv-
renceville, and Solicitor Charley
Brand passed through Elberton
Monday morning on their way to
Carnesvil.’e to hold adjourned term
of Franklin superior court. Judge
Hutchins has adorned the superior
court bench for the past fifteen or
wenty years, and will go out of
Alice next January with clean
hands, a clear conscience,and leave
the best record of any Judge in
Georgia. It is unfortunate that
politics will not permit men of such
legal erudition, ripe experience and
unapproachable integrity to con¬
tinue in the service of the country
and people,
“Uncle” Jimmie Wilson, than
whom the great Southern railway
never had a more efficient, compe-
tant, honorable or popular employe,
is attending court at Carnesville
this week. Mr. Wilson has been
in the service of the Southern longer
than any man between Atlanta and
Charlotte,and when the time cojnes
that worth and merit and fidelity
are recognized as it should be, he
will be promoted to a position of
greater emoluments if not of higher
trust. His friends among the pa-
trons of the road are legion, and
they would be delighted at his re-
by the railway magnates
of this system.

Congress.
Washington, December 7 —
Representative Bailey is getting
up a caucus call for a caucus for
Saturday. lie is anxious for the
party to commit itself against the
policy of expansion at once. There
will be a bitter fight over the prop¬
osition as the Democrats who ^avor
expansion will leave the caucus, ii
is believed, rathei than bind them-
selves by caucus to oppose it.
The expansion senators are care-
fully polling the senate on the sub-
ject of the treaty. It is very
portant to know how many votes
they have in favor of the treaty be-
tore it is submitted.
This morning they lay claim to at
least sixty votes for treaty and be-
lieve that they can muster more if
the president urges in vigorous
language a prompt ratification.
Senator Clay introduced a bill
this morning to repeal that portion
of the war tax which imposes a
stamp tax on deeds or real estate
transactions, checks, drafts, and
also to repeal other portions of the
law which imposes stamp taxes.
Washington, Dec. 7.—The presi¬
dential party will visit Atlanta,

fast hour the following morning.
Thursday evening the party will
leave Atlanta for Tuskegee, arriy-
ing there a f S o'clock Friday morn¬

how long the president will remain
at Tuskegee, but from there he will
go to Montgomery and from Mont¬
gomery to Savannah, arriving at
the krtter place Saturday,
The festivities in Savannah will
close Saturday night. The party
will remain over Sunday in the

Robbed the Grave.
A startling incident . of which Mr
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was
the subject, is narrated by him as
follows; “I was in a most dreadful
condition. My skin was almost

pain continually in back and sides

From Manilla.
We have been permitted to read
a letter from Jim Duke, of Tugalo.
to home folKs,who is now at Ma
nilla, Philippine Islands.
He is a member of the 23rd
Infantry, U. S. Regulars. He
writes under date of August 10.
1S98. He was then at Cavite, the
fi rst llln din g of the U. S. soldiers:
“Well, we are having trouble
here now with the Spaniards, vve
landed at Cavite and stayed there
until about a week ago, and cross¬
ed the bay, and are now camped
four miles from Manilla, with breast
works thrown up three miles from
camp and one mile from Manilla,
and vve keep men in them all the
time to keep the Spaniards back.
Our company go in every third
morning at 9 o’clock and remain
till 9 o’clock the next day. Last
Friday night I was up there and
vve had a hard battle. The Span¬
iards undertook to charge us and
run us out ot our trenches; we
made it hot for them and drove
t i lem back, but lost three men ki 11-
e(i and five wounded . We had
about 2,000 men in the trenches.
The Spaniards do their fighting at
night, We must have killed a lot
of them, but we cant tell. Any-
way they have not tried us again,
One man of my company was kill-
ed, and he was right near me. I
tell you the bullets were as thick as
they could fly for about one hour
and a half,
We had orders not to fire unless
they came right on us, and our ar-
tilery is not allowed to fire at all.
Our officers are waiting to get ev¬
erything in shape to go into the
city.
We are waiting for the fourth ex¬
pedition to get here, which vve
hope will be only a few days. Gen¬
eral Merritt is in command and he
desires to keep the enemy back
with as little trouble as possible till
vve are reinforced by more troops
which are on the way. The Mon-
terey got here a few days ago and
Dewey is ready to bombard as soon
as Merritt gives the word.
Last Sunday a week, the Span¬
iards made a break at us, but our
side just mowed them down. We
lost 7 men and 20 wounded. The
U. S. has lost altogether about 20
men killed and the Spaniards are
supposed to have lost at least 1,000,
but I can tell you right now that
vve will have some sure-enough
scrapping when we go into city.
We work hard all the time that
we are in the entrenchments, and
in mud knee deep. 1 In the daytime

which was written Tune 9th. I

Since « took Manilla we have got
; about 30,000 Spanish soldiers as
prisoners. We came into the city
on Aug., 13, and I tell you we had
some hot scrapping. The Span¬
iards cannot stand our bullets—they
want to do all their fighting at
night. We had two batteries of
big artillery up and I tell you they
knocked the Spaniard’s block hous¬
es to bell in short order and we
charged their breast works and
took the whole thing.
The Spanish loss was heavy.

fortified and has rock walls all
