A few days since ■ we touched upon
MMq**<Q»T»8to»h-
' ! wit ana claiming that his nomination
o' I and election defeated Mr.Speer In the
Colquitt totee about w much of Joe
Brown as Joe does of Colquitt. It’s a
strong team, and works well together.
Let the Speaker of the House shoot
down the first member that attempts
to commit an outrage upon. Ibe. new.
Code!
■Ofiadtor will take his
mam wmc mans*
9th district. Bluce that time their
Atlse claims are gettlnu bolder and
bolder until we expect soon to Near
Atlanta set In and usurp the little
praise notv left the democracy of our
district. We will rcpest, that so far
from the nomination of Mr. Stephens
assisting us us In our war upon Indc-
dfpendcnce. his election was the hard*
ext urg’iment we had to overcome.
Ho was the alimmt unanimous choice
of the S|>eer men among us, and the
Gainesville Southron flaunted his
name nl Its mast-head. In his cam
pulgu hand hills Mr. S|>cer announce*,
his apisdutiuent, with luc woids:
*'.\mi Governor-elect Stephens says,
‘there is uo|itiilereui:e lietwen Mr.Specr
and myself.’ ” He made our Execu
tive’s independent utterances, when
he whs bulldozing the democracy of
the 8th district, a text and excuse for
his own course, and constantly wrung
luto our ears, ‘‘Mr. Stephens and I
stand upon the same platform.” And
again: At the mass meeting in Clarke
county to select delegates to the gu
bernatorial oonvenilon aomo >of atae-
▼ery men wire were chosen ah Steph
ens delegates returned home and not
only vo.ed hut worked for the election
of Mr. 8pe.-r.
It was pretty much the same way
throughout the district. The most
blatant independents were the great
est Stephens men, and their cause
was made the same. Xow does this
look as if the Commoner’s nomina
tion helped the democracy of the 9tb
district? So fur from doing so he was
a clog at our heels—a weight that we
could not throw otf. It was his Casey
letter that elected Mr. Speer before,
and his nomination would have done
so a third time had it not been for the
Herculean eflorts of the gallant dem
ocracy of the Oth. To them and them
alone Is the honor and praise of this
campaign solely due. Col. Candler
owes his triumph to his own people.
They it was who bore the brunt of the
conflict, and they It is who deserve
the glory of the grainiest victory that
ever crowned the democracy of old
Georgia. So let Gov
his filends claim all the praise and
glory that justly belongs to them, but
we protest against their usurping tbe
honor of redeeming the 9th distrlot.
Single handed and alone our people
fought their own battle, and to them
solely does all honor belong. We be
lieve that had another candidate than
Mr. Stephens been nominated for gov
ernor Col. Caudler’a majority would
have been at least one thousand more.
Mr. Speer placed himself upon the
same platform that gentleman had
once threatened to occupy, and tliua
attracted a support that he would not
otherwise have received.

We hear very few complaint- from
our subscribers about getting tlielr
papers since tbe election, fur which
favor we are duly thankful.
We have no Idea that Mr. Speer will
ever offer again for congress in this
district. We predict that he will
trust his fortune In Washington.
You can see the good effects of the
democratic triumph already lu Ath

ILLEGAL VOTERS.
At the xpring term of our superior
court the graud jury set a noble aud
praise-worthy example ill finding true
hills against illegal voters, that we
hope and trust will he emulated by
the body now in session. Backed by
the determined act ion of Judge Cobb,
a damper was thrown upon these law
breakers, the good effect of which was
seen at the late election for congress
man. ltut it did not entirely stop
tlie evil. If we are not misinformed
nearly two hundred illegal ballots
were deposited ut the recent contest
in Clarke county, and suine of them
evuu alter the parties Imd been sworn
This lays the culprit liable to a double
indictment—for Illegal voting and
perjury. At the last term of court
some men doubtlessly innocently vio
lated the law who were indicted; but
at the recent contest the offenders
knowingly, wilfully and premedlta
tingly cast their ballots illegally
They had the experience of others be
fore their eyes, uud knew their crime
and its penalty. The challengers took
pains to warn these law-lireakers of
what they were doing, hjil they ac
cepted the risk and must expect to
puy the penally. So we urge upjn
our present efficient grand jury the
vita) Importance or ferretiug out these
offenders and present every one of
them to the court for indictment. It
is tile only snleguard they can throw
around our hulloi-lsix, and the people
demand that the laws under which
they live lie respected and euforced
Not only have ut«i; voted without
paying their tuxes, hut parties dis
franchises) on account of not residing
in the couuty long enough have exer
cised this privilege. They had no
right to vote, they knew it at tbe time,
and it is right that they should be
punished. I.ct the guardians of our
public welfare unearth and present
these criminals if t hey must hold In
session until Christmas and bring to
bear every officer of the law in the
county. Wo have other important
elections now pending, and it is nec
essary that we purge our ballot-box of
Ulegsl votes. We have succeeded in
purifying our politics, and now let us
go to work nnd regulate our suffrage.
The people expect the present grand
jury to take up the task so nobly be
gun by the last body and dc their
sworn doty. We do not think they
will disappoint us.

The election of Mr. Barrow was a

The democrats will not only have a
majority of the members ot the next
congress, but will have a majority of
the members in the delegation of a
majority of the states. Not counting
Michigan, they have a majority in

be devolved upon the house.
