Notice to Advertisers,
l'o insure insertion, ail changes for
standing advertisements must ba hand
ed in by noon of the day before
Atlanta will soon be crowded with
politicians.
Wade Hampton is supporting Til-
man in South, Corolina.
Every democratic congressman
nominated in Georgia should be elect
ed. '
The effort to beat Livingston in the
5th, and Everett in the 7th, should
fail.
New York has a case of yellow
fever. Too late, yellow jack, for you
to get a foothold this year.
Mentionees.
Every day almost some new name
ia suggested as a good man for Sena
tor. Just go ahead, gentlemen, it
will gratify the gentlemen whose
names are mentioned and make them
feel kindly toward you, and it won’t
hurt any of them unless some of them
should be foolish inougjt to think this
talk really meaut something. Even
then it would only result in a little
loss of time and money to such of the
mentiouees, (we may be allowed to
coin a word to fit the case, when there
is none that will exactly) ns may be
foolish enough to think they ought to
go up to Atlanta and look after their
ebanus Take our advice nud stay
away. John 15. Gordon will he
elected United State Senntor, and all
the others, the very large army of
mentiouees, will he allowed to stay
at home and attend to their business.
Many of them arc very much en
grossed in business affairs, and it
would be a pity to take them away
from their business just now. Then
it would be such a pity to disappoint
all hut one of such a crowd. It
would make the others feel so badly,
so that Gordon will be the man, and
everything will be smooth and pleas
ant. These young men can wait.
They have plenty of time ahead of
them, and during that time the next
six or twelve years, some one of them
may havo so distinguished himself
that he will be selected as the man,
not mentioned ns one of many who
would make good Senators. So go
ahead and bring out two or _ three
a day from now on, as tho time is
growing short. These few remarks
are specially commended to all those
newspapers, politicians and all others
who are anxiously shaking tho bushes
to find the man to heat Gordon.
A man in Pennsylvania the other
day sold his wife tor $115. We’ll bet
the man who bought her was cheated,
A correspondent ol the News, writ
ing from Thoma-villr, locates “Broth*
er” Matteson in Colquitt county.
We protest, in the name of the good
people of that county, against locating
such a man as Matteson in old Col
quitt.
Arntour & Co, the great meat pack
ers of Chicago, says the McKinley tar
iff will increase the cost of the tin used
by them $256,000 a year. Every
one who buys a pound of their canned
meats will pay his proportion of this
$250,000.
Joe Brown Enys he will never again
he a candidate for any office ol honor,
profit or emolument, but proposes to
upend the few remaining days of his
life in quiet and retirement.
So those who were intimating that
your Uncle Joseph might solve the
senatorial muddle by stepping in and
taking it again have missed their
guess.
Items trom the Floridian:
Mr. J. B. C. Drew, attorney of the
Augusta, Tallahassee and Gult rail
way, has been over the line of road
and left for New York to make his re
port to President Zeh.
The Thomas County Stock Breed
ers’ Association will hold an exhibition
in Thomasville Nov. 12. They should
bring their fine stock to the Leon
county fair, Nov. 25.
Are you a Democrat ? If you are,
you will go to the polls on the 1st
Tuesday in November and vote for H.
G. Turner for Congress. If you vote
for Matteson you are no true demo
crat, because you will be casting your
vote for a republican. If you stay
away from any cause, except such as
you cannot overcome, you will fail to
do your duty and will havo no right
to ask any favor at any time of the
democratic party. Where are you?
A great deal of fuss is being made
over the fact that a section or two of
the tariff bill was left out of the law.
1'hat the copy as enrolled and signed
by the officers of the two houses of
congress and the President differed, by
the admission of a section or two, from
the bill as actually passed, does not
make any difference and will not help
the people one bit. The copy signed
is thq,law and will stand as the law,
and all congress can do is to pass an
amendment putting the omited section
back. No such good luck at getting
rid of the whole monstrosity because
a small portion of it is not exactly as
congress intended it to be.
Senator Joseph H. Brown was not
well enough to make the speech he
had prom sed, but it has been printed.
As might be expected, it is full of sound
sense and good advice. The only dif
ficulty is to get the people to take the
advice. He says keep out of debt,
raise bacon, corn, wheat and mules at
borne and slop sending all the money
you make raising cotton out of the
country to pay for things you could
and ought to raise yourselves. Fight
the ioiquitcus tariff and let the sub-
treasury atone. But even the sound
practical sense ot the Senator, coupled
with the fact that he has made a mil#
lion or more (of money during his life
time, and that be wsa once about as
poor as any body, will not be equal to
convinopg the farmers that his advice
can be followed SOCCCMfaUy.
Her Estate Goes For Masses.
New York, Oct. 24.—By the will
of Margaret Sullivan, made August
18, 1886, she directs her executors to
expend her estate iu masses to be said
in the Hoboken monastery and Fath
er Drumgold's church in this city.
She wants four masses said for her
children in general, two for her late
husband and two high ones for her
son John, in particular; also twenty-
five one dollar masses for him.
To Father Drumgold’s church she
gives $20 to buy tickets for prayers
for her family, to bo used during the
next ten years. The rest of her
estate is to be used for masses for her
father, mother and whole family in
genoral.
A Bridal Tour in a Balloon-
Birmingham, Ala., Oct. 24 —
There was a thrilling balloon ascension
at the state fair to-day. Thomas J.
Mims and Miss Gertrude Pitman, of
Brewton, Ala., were married in front
of the grand stand in the presence of
10,000 people. Kev. S. M. Adams,
president of the state alliance, per-
formed-the ceremony. Tho young
couple then stepped into the car of the
monster gas balloon, and, with Aero
naut Baldwin, sailed off on a bridal
tour. The balloon took a southerly
direction, and, at a height of 14 miles,
went over Red mountain-
A Jack the Ripper Scaro.
London, Oct. 24.—The “Jack tho
Ripper” 6caro has. again caused a
sensation among the police and resi
dents of the South Hampstead locali
ty. To-night, in a secluded part of
that neighborhood, passers-by were
shocked by finding in an obscure alley
the dead body of n woman whose head
had been very uearly severed, while
her body showed evidence of kicks
and bruises in themselves sufficient to
cause death.
* Hit him Again.
The News and Advertiser is after
“Brother’’ Matteson with a sharp
stick. It says:
{{Carpet-Bagger C. S. Mattcrson, the Kan
sas yankee, who Is now drawing a pension
of $45 per month from the government for
the lossofannrm infighting the South,
says be has become a candidate for Congress
under the “argent request’’ of many Alii-
anemen of tho district. If Mattsson refus
es to name some of them Alliancomcn he
will be taken ns a colossal liar as well ju 5
crank and social equality missionary.
A Fine day at Macon.
Macon, Ocf. 24.—The brightest
of bright skies beamed on the second
day of the fair and furnished all that
we needed to make the day a*perfcct
success. The crowd in tho city was
one of the largest ever seen on any
fair day in Macon, and with the
trades display, addresses at the
grounds, races, mid at night nu open
air band concert and fireworks, the
throngs of visitors managed to enjoy
themselves thoroughly.
The Interstate Drill.
Aylayta. Ga., Oct. 24.—An cncrmcu6
crowd, probably equaling that which' wel
comed President Cleveland in 1887, wit
nessed the Interstate drill snd sham battle

The Republican Convention at
Camilla.
Tho Clarion says that Brimbcrry
was tho only white man in the con
vention. Among other things he
said:
“It will he n happy day for Georgia when
she gets rid of John B. Gordon. 1 ’
Zeke Hamilton, of Thomas, was
made permanent chairman, The
Clarion says of him :
f-E. Hamilton, the president of the repuh-
lienn convention, said iu his speech "the
only reason I have tor voting against Mr.
Turner is that if I vote for him, I will he
put down ns n democrat "
On the vote to endorse Matteson
Thomas county voted “no.” Only
eight oountics in the district were rep
resented. Arnold, Putuey and the bet
ter class of republicans did not attend.
Brimberry announced that no money
or whiskey would be used iu the
campaign. This will put a great
damper on the contest. While Brim-
berry was very bitter, be it said to
the credit of tho colored delegates
that they were conservative, iiululg-1
ing in no abuse ot the whites. Zeke |
Hamilton presided with fairness and
dignity, and showed more common
sense tn what he said than the majority
of tbo delegates. Zeke ought to
follow his inclinations and vote for
Turner, Turner is a hotter friend
to-day to the colored race llmu car
pet-bagger Matteson.
“Brother Matteson” was endorsed
by the republican convention which
met a day or two 6ince iu Camilla.
We have no idea who composed this
convention, as no meetings were ever
held of any considerable number of
men calling themselves the republican
party of Thomas county. In fact we
have been unable to find that even a
handful ever met in this county to
send delegates to this convention.
Therefore, we suppose that the tew
who hold U. S. positions in Railway,
Mail and Internal Revenue service
delegated themselves to meet as the
republican party of the Second Dis
trict and to nominate a candidate.
They seem to have thought that
“Brother” Matteson would get some
Alliance votes if endorsed as an inpend-
ent which he could not get if he sailed
under his true colors, and therefore
they “endorsed his candidacy.” Did
anybody ever Rear of republicans en
dorsing'anybody for the office of con
gressman who was nor in thefr opin
ion a full fledged republican ? Who
ever votes for Matteson is voting for
Czar Reed’s gang as completely and
entirely as any republican in Maine.
