is well, now and then, in this day
'il changes, and shifting creeds, to turn
over the pages of the past, and draw
instruction, encouragement and in
spiration from the great democratic
leaders of the past, from Jefferson,
Jackson, Tildes, and the giant minds,
that conceived and shaped the policy
ol the party. It is profitable, just
now, in view ol the serious encroach
ments of the federal government, be
coming—as it is—more centralized
every day, robbing the states of their
rights; we say that in view of these
dangerous centralizing tendencies, the
following from a speech delivered by
the late Samuel J. Tilden, at Roches
ter, N. Y. in 1S71, should be read
throughout the length and breadth of
the land. Mr. Tilden said:
The creed of the democratic party
is comprised in two ideas: hirst, to
limit as much as possible all govern
mental power, enlarging always and
everywhere the dominion of individual
judgment and action; secondly, to
throw back the governmental powers
necessary to be exercised as much as
possible upon the states and the local
ities, approaching in every case the in
dividuals to be aflected.
These ideas dominate over the
democratic parly, and find in it their
best representative. The opposite
ideas—to meddle with everything
properly belonging to the individual,
and to centralize all governmental
powers—express the tendencies of the
republican parjy. , , .
Under this inspiration the federal
government is rapidly seizing upon all
the powers of human society. It has
assumed to regulate the suffrage, and
threatens to take the control of all
elections.
I oppose centralism, because it is
incompatible with civil liberty.
I oppose centralism because it
creates an irresponsible power, and
an irresponsible power is always cor
rupt. , ^4 ^
The Lease Signed.
Until yesterday the Nashvilie, Chat
tanooga and St; Louis, which sub
mitted the highest and best bid for the
lease of the Western and Atlantic, was
in position to forfeit $25,000 and back
out of their trade.
It isn’t so now.
The lease was signed yesterday in
duplicate, and the great seal of the
state was attached.
The $500,000 in state bonds was
formally delivered to Treasurer Ilarde
min and his receipt taken therefor.
That is the size of the forfeit ii
the event the new lessees go back on
their trade, ond a backout now is out
of the question.
The contract was signed by Gover
nor Gordon and by Secretary of State
l»hil Cook, on behalf of the state
and by President J. IV. Thomas and
Secretary ]. H. Ambrose, on behalf
of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St
Louis.
Attorney General Anderson was
there to see it all legally done.—Con
stitution.
Let it Come.
'I lie shatU.ws of the force bill, nor
pending in ilu senate, is hovt ring over
the south. What shall we do ? is the
ques ion. Is 11 better to meet it with,
force, or adopt some oth< r p.lan ?.
Hot header! southerners arc ready to
meet the foul wrong with fore: ? The
Constitution m a double leaded leader,
suggests another plan. We subjoin
the following extracts from the article:
With the promulgation of the force
biil every white human being in the
south between the cradle and the
grave will unite with his fellow country
men, and stand with them to the end
There will be no more discord or fac
tions in the demosracy, and around
the standard will rally the last white
republican. A common danger will
bring the whites of the south together,
sinking all the differences of the past,
and sacrificing every petsonal ambi-
ti in for the supreme interest of the
hour. Then the world will sec a solid
south !
Uy way ol giving due notice, let us
say right here, that when the wires
flash the tidings that the president has
signed the lorce bill, The Constitution
will instuiidy call a mass meeting to
organize a Home Rule League. It
will be the most determined gathering
ol people ever seen in Georgia’s capi
tal, and its action will be spontaneous,
unanimous and as speedy as the live
thunder when it leaps from its home
in the burning clher.
The boycott, with every white man,
woman and child in the south behind
it, will be mightier than all the armies
whose marching feet once shook this
continent from sea to sea.

( bninr.;.—
When Abraham I.incoln became
President of the United States the
entire revenues of the government
were less than $50,000,000. Now the
people are taxed to raise nine times
that amount, and yet this vast revenue
is insufficient to quiet the appetite of
robbers who pretend that their hunger
is patriotism.—Telegraph.
Col. Elliot Shepard declares that
the least opposition to the torce bill
after it becomes a law will cause one
patriots to spring to arms and
heir march tethe south. Wc
c colonel will feel it his duty to
1 the front rank.—Telegraph.
O, no, the doughty Col. will not
think of heading the army; he will be
with the baggage train.
Paralysis will seize the congested
capital, the industries, the commerce
and the railway lines running from
north to south, and hundrees of thou
sands of desperate and idle working
men in the great cities of the north
and west will fiercely turn upon society
and raise the cry I “Bread or blood.”
If we try the boycott under the
force bill, we shall see revived the old-
time enthusiasm and patriotism ot the
early sixties. In those days our rich
men laid aside their costly attire and
proudly arrayed themselves in home
made jeans. Our ladies refused to
purchase goods of northern make, and
wore checked homespun dresses. It
will not be necessary to repeat the
sacrifices of the past. Our ports are
open, and with our monopoly of the
greatest money products ol the world
we need not deny ourselves a single
comfort or luxury.
% * *
Home Rule Leagues will be organ
ized everywhere in the south, and the
members will pledge themselves te
buy not a dollar’s worth of anything
that is produced or manufactured in
the north. Commercially speaking,
au impassible wall will rise between
the sectious.
* * *
It will the salvation of the solid
south, and will throw off lor all time to
come the foul domination ol the revo
lutionists who are trying to make an
Ireland or India out of the land of
Washington, Jefierson and Lee ; a
land of sovereign states with millions ot
freemen, who know their rights and
dare to maintain them at any cost!
This appears to he the solution ol
the problem.
"I am ready to join the boycott, to
day,” said a leading merchant of l'hom-
asville, yesterday, as he traced Mason
and Dixon’s line on a map. ‘‘I am
ready to pledge myself,” he continued,
“not to buy a dollar’s worth of good*
north of that line, if the fo-ce bill
passes.”
Yes, let Home Rule Leagues be
oiganized throughout the south. Our
very existence is at stake. Ihom-
asville and Southern Georgia, always
true to home rule, will lock shields
with the balance ol the state, in fight
ing the ihfamous measure to the last.
Let every southern city and commun
ity speak out. Meetings should be
called and resolutions adopted pledg
ing the people to the course outlined
in the Constitution’s able article.
Not in Her Set: “Now pray for
Susie Bates.” said Mrs. Simeral to 6-
year-old Flossie, who was saying her
prayers. “Susie is quite sick.” ‘‘Why,
mamma,” said Flossie, “leant pray
for her. She doesn’t belong to our
crowd.”—Epoch. _
“If the force bill passes,” says a
Georgia editor, “wc will convert the
office towel into a club, melt the old
hand press into an iron musket, and
start out 0:1 the warpath for Tom
Reed and the rest of them,”
In an interview with the Rochester
Union (Dcm.) Boh Jiigersoll says: "I
believe jn protecting wlmt arc called
llic infant industries, but nftor these
‘infants’ get to be six feet high and
wear No, 12 boots it is about time to
stop rocking the cradle, especially
when the ‘infant’ tells you that if you
stop rocking lie will get out of the
cradle and kick your head off.”
