sponse. Every mind’s eye would in
stantly turn and fix itself upon that vet*
eran soldier and statesman, who
did not falter in the times which tried
men’s souls, and who has been loyal
in the last degree to every responsibil

countrymen have clothed him. But
behold him to-day, traduced and ma«

“Truth” Talks For Gordon.
Editor Tiuxs-Entshfusi
I see by your paper that strenuous
efforts are being made to defeat Gen.
Gordon for senator at the approaching
election by the legislature, by such
politicians as Norwood, Gov- Smith,
Gen. Gartrellaud such like, who have
kept their names before the people
for many years, by reason of a chron
ic candidacy for every important of*
fice when thero was a vacancy or a
new election to be made.
Other younger men, such ns Jim
Hines and men of his caliber, taking
advantage of the public excitement
are writing letters and being inter
viewed, and say they are solicited to
become candidates, aud while they ex
press great reluctance at being brought
forward as aspirants for such an office
as senator in the congress of the
United States, they wind up their let
ters and interviews by consenting to
serve the dear people, if they arc call
ed on.
Such modes, artifices and scheming
call for the disgust and reprobation of
the general public.
It has been the good fortune of the
writer to have known Gen. Gordon
from his youth up, and I venture to
eay, without the fear of snccessful
contradiction, that his conduct, both
from a moral or politiggl standpoint,
has as few blemishes as that of any
public man in the slate of Georgia.
Whenever jn civil, military or po
litical life, the people needed a friend
or advocate, he was always'on hand,
ready and willing to do battle" for
them whenever and wherever it was
needed.
When the bullets were sent thick
and fast by the enemy in the late war,
his breast was bared to ar.d did re
ceive them, and while the blood was
flowing frqm one wound, he stood
ready to aDd received others, and
when Gen. Lee in the desperation of
the last months of the war needed the
daring and services of a true and tried
leader of his shattered forces, Gordon
was the man.
And shall we Georgians go back on
such a man ? Has Southern chivalry
so far degenerated that those of us
who inherited tbe virtues of a revolu
tionary ancestry, and in whose veins
flow the blood of a noble ancestry,
ignore and repudiate tbe man of this
age who is a true and nobio type of
our ancestors? God forbid that’such
a shame should fasten upon us.
X do not believe tbe rank and file
of the nlliancc is responsible for this
bitter war against Gordon. Their
leaders, many of whom are using the
alliance as a stepping stone for their
own pohticaljadvnncemeut, have caus
ed this trouble, and in order to pro
duce an earthquake, have selected the
brightest star in the political firma
ment to accomplish their end. 1 ven
ture to say that two years from now,
it will be as difficult to find an anti-
Gordon man as to find a necdlo in a
bay staek.

The third column of the second page
of this issue will be found blaDk. It
is not our fault. Col. John Kyloff,
one of the old pioneers of this town,

The forms were all ready for the press
when a detective arrived from Port

embezzler, bigamist and all-round

that was the best we could do. —Ari

THE JUDGE PROTESTS
Hon. Wwi. M. Roesa Will not be
Ruled.
Washington, Ga,, Oct. 15.—Last
Friday, Wilkes JZoiinty Alliance, or a
majority of a meeting of about 50
members, resolved that petition be cir
culated in Wilkes county (or the signa
ture of voters, who favor requesting
tbe representatives from Wilkes to
vote-jjgainst Gov. Gordon for senator.
To-day ‘the Washington Chronicle
prints a letter from Judge William
Reese, protesting that such a work is
unjust to the democratic party unless
done under the supervision of the ex
ecutive committee of the demoende
party of this country, and bv men se
lected by that body to do it, men well
known for diligence, fairness and hon
esty.
In the name ot himsell and other
democrats, who will, he says, no lon
ger submit to be ruled in any other
way than by the action of the demo
cratic party and its lawful authorities,
he asks that justice may be done to
every democratic voter. The repre
sentatives from Wilkes are personally
Gordon men.—Atlanta Journal.
In my mind it is very clear that
when the people elect a man to the leg*
islaturo upon any open, pronounced
platform nothing less than the people
can change that platform. If in any
instance the members of an Alliance,
as an organization or ns individuals,
have attempted such a change I do
not hesitate to sny it is unwise and
full of danger.—Governor elect W.
J. Northern
Governor Northcn gives his alii—-
anco friends wholesome advice in the
above. In many counties they are
instructing representatives wheie
these same representatives were pro
nounced Gordon men before their
election.
In a certain part of Ilollaud when
a young man thinks he has found his
affinity it is customary for him to ask
for a match to light his cigar at the
door of his loved one’s house.”—Ex.
In this country where a young man
thinks he has found his “affinity,” he
inquires into her father’s bank ac
count, and if it is found satisfactory,
lie goes to a cigar store, buys three
for a quarter, and beats the concern
out of a box of parlor matches.
