They Will be True.
Fid Lewis, otic ol the strongest
Alliance men in the state, says:
“If the Livingston gang intend to
force Democratic Allianccmen
choose between the Democratic party
and the Alliance, so he it. Living
ston cannot Tillmanize the Demo
cratic party of Georgia.”
We do not believe that the clear
headed Alliancemen of Georgia will
attempt to cripple or defeat the dera
ocratic party. It has been their
shield and protector, and they will
not allow any order to sever their con
nection with the only party in the
South, which offers them protect^
against evils greater than any which
confront them trom an economic
stand point. The democrats of Geor
gia, whatever'may happen, will stand
together so long as they arc menaced
with the problem of self preservation
They cannot, they will not, go off af
ter strange gods. The reasons which
have made the entire South solid
will solidify the democratic party of
Georgia. And this means 99 per
cent of the best clement in the state
A Tribute to Mr. Randall.
The Philadelphia Record, speaking
of tho late lamented Samuel J. Ran'
dnll, says:
Sir. Randall was a horn leader of
men. Strong, pushing, impetuous in
his likes and dislikes, firm in his con
Victions, unselfish and honest in his
purposes,*he compelled the following
of lesser men and attracted the com
rndeship of his equals, lie knew no
classes. The friends lie had, in what
ever rank of life, he tied to him with
hooks of steel. He was known of all
familiarly as “Sam Randall." His
distinguishing characteristics were his
masterful manliness and unswerving
integrity.
There Were More.
The Clerk of the Bon Air, Augus
la’s new hotel, couuicd sixty million
aires, not including himself, in the
hotel lobby the other day. They
were, probably, members of the Geor
gia Press association, returning home
from the Sunday bull fight in Ha
vana.
It turns out the six or seven hun
dred millions in the U. S. treasury
could be stolcu at any time. ' A dis
patch from Washington, says:
The treasurer, of the United States
has asked the House committee on
appropriations to put through the
House immediately a special appro
priation to enable him to strengthen
the old treasury vaults, in which are
deposits aggregating $1)00,000,000.
He had experiments made recently,
his suspicions having been aroused as
to the security of the vaults, which
are of a style twenty-five years old.
His expert bored a hole through the
vault wall in seventeen seconds, and
made the hole largo enough to crawl
through in seventeen minutes. Prac
tically the contents of the vaults were
.at his disposal, including 8250,000 in
greenbacks in acorncrsix feet Equnre.
The facts caused great excitement.
The guards about the treasury lmvo
been doubled. The thieves stand
a ipighty good chance to get at the
boodle anyhow, even alter the vaults
arc strengthened. They will break
in through the lobby which swarms in
W ishington.
McKinley is having a hard time
with bis tariff bill. The republican
party is having a hard time generally.
The people are repudiating it in the
East and West. The South never
embraced it
Patten, Ga., April loth, 1890.
Eiiitoii Timks-Entmifmiisi:
oo Encourngn a modest man and
he hecoir.es vain; don’t encourage
one and lie gets mad. Wc are aware
of the fact that the less wc try to* dc
ccivc people tin: more they will think
of us. 'J'lie bulk of the cotton crop
of this section is planted and it is a
large one. Mr. E. C. Redfearn has
G5 acres planted in cotton, J. M.
Gandy 10. Wo also have some hog
and hominy farmers, among whom
wc mention Uncle Boh Redfearn,
ho never fails. We had a very dis
astrous forest fire in Ibis section ou
the 10th inst. Mr. Dan Williams lost
nearly are the fencing around his
farm; others lost some but not so
seriously. The farmers helped each
other, however, and the damage was
soon repaired. Wc arc needing rain
badly in this section. The Quarterly
meeting of the Greenfield circuit con
venes with the Pleasant Grove M.
E. Church, April 23rd. We extend
a special invitation to the editor ns
wc expect to retaliate when the S. Si.
Convention meets in your city.
Wc spent some pleasant hours in
vour city last week. Wc don’t visit it
often aud it builds up so fast that wc
hardly know the place until we get
up on Broad st, where wc can se.c the
Mitchell House. Wc like to go to
Thomasville any way. Her citizens
arc not nil puffed up with pride,
They don’t pass you walking at the
rate, of five miles an hour and if you
ask one for a bit of information about
some one or something about town,
he wont stare at you as if you were
a heathen (Jhinamnn, qnd tell you to
go to the city officials. No sir. The
big monied men, men of influence,
greet even the poor down trodden
farmer with a pleasant smile nnd a
genial good morning. We did not
know that tho Times had moved; we
saw the old sign still there, so
walked in to settle with the editor
for our subscription, before yvo saw
the mistake. The gentleman in
pointed over towards tho old jail, nnd
before wc had time to seiche sign on
the new Times-Enteki-risk building,
wondered if (.’apt. Triplett had
bought the old jail and transformed it
into an cdilc rial den. But we soon
saw the building. As we were walk
ing down Jackson street wc decided
Yvo’d put oil airs, and walk like city
folks, hut wc forget and was soou
dividing our time looking at the
graud display of goods ou Levy’s
corner, and the picture of Two old
Grouics on a brick wall at our left.
While thus engaged we stumbled,
into a Photographers tent, nnd before
wc could get up lie had taken our
picture. (The next time yvc go to
Tliomasville wc expect to see our-
silvcs all dressed up aud ornament
ing some public building ) When yvc
got on the street again we Yvere con
tented to lie our own rustic self. As
wc stepped into the business office wc
stood with Yvonder and admiration at
the transformation around us. Tho
editor was not in, but the young mnu
that sits at the receipt of custom was,
aud lie receipted us for our eubscrip
tion. Wc asked him how he liked
newspaper work. Well, you would I (ions
not believe it, hut he burst into tears
and said he did sigh to he on n farm.
We did not question him further,
seeing that the subject was a painful
one. As we hade him good bye, nnd
ishcil him a prosperous journey
through life, wc fell to thiuking.
What queer ideas some folks have,
for instance here was the young man,
all dressed up in broad cloth, his
hands ns fair and tender as a womans,
actually grieviug to get on a farm,
plow a mustang nnd have ft bunch of
razor-hacked hog., squealing after
him at feeding time. He felt like
lie could take any common piuc land
and make a brilliant sucecss^i farm
ing; while 1 yvun trying to farm and
felt like I bail missed my calling.
With juBt a little practice we thought
that we’d have been a smarter lawyer
than Bob Toombs ever dared to he,
and a bigger liar than Bill Nye.
c fairly loughed to fill that young
tion .of knowing that in that brief
space of time Yve had settled the race
problem for ever; reunitedjjlhe north
nnd south ; and made Geo. W. Peck
look so little that you’d have to ad
just your glasses to see him.
Ever thine,
Raymond.
P. S.—The dwelling, kitchen and
smoke house of Mr. Brinkly Gandy,
who lives on the Airline Road, 2^
miles from Patten, was burned on
the 12th inst. The fire caught from
tho stove piping. The family were
all present, hut could not extinguish
the flames; most of the furniture,
bedding, Ac., was saved, but many
valuables in the way of souveniers
and keep sakes, which cannot be
replaced, were lost. Another, a new
ly built tenant house, of Mr. Dun
Vanns, on the Coffee road, 14 miles
from Thomasville; nnd 3 miles from
this place, was burned on the same
day. Raymond.
