There in some talk in Atlanta of
parson Felton be owning an inde
pendent candidate for Governor.
There is no need of excitement
over the gubernatorial race, and the
nomination should be made in a
quiet manner.
An Iowa editor has a lengthy edi
torial entitled “A Month of Hor
rors,” and he was married only
about six weeks ago.
Col. A. Oscarwilde Bacon says
he deeply regrets the death of Mr.
Stephens. We presume that every
Georgian does, and cannot see the
necessity of the Colonel publishing
the fact.
The Soarta Ishmaclitc says: Mr.
Merrick called Bob Ingersoll “a
puppy” in the star route trial the
other day. If this case continues a
few more weeks Bob will be rated
at his true worth.

MEMORIAM.
KIDNEY-WORT
difficult to conceive a finer set of
addresses thaa,those ,
We are very much pleased with
our new Governor. He seems to
be eminently fitted for this impor
tant position. His assumption of
the reins of office was in a dignified
and statesmanlike manner.
Macon has more than her quota
of state officers, yet we read that
she has three standing candidates
for Governor. Macon must think
that all the brains of Georgia are
concentrated in her narrow limits.
We are inclined to the belief that
the Hon. A. O. Bacon pulled him
self most too soon. The announce
ment of his candidacy before the
breath had scarcely left the body of
Mr. Stephens will not be relished
by the decent people of Georgia.
Some of the Georgia papers are
now quarrelling as to which was
the first to go in mourning for Mr.
Stephens. It is said that one en
terprising daily actually donned the
widow’s weeds three bourse before
the Great Commoner breathed his
last. Such hasty grief is but little
better than an insult to the memory
of the illustrious dead.
into the heat of a political canvas,
where human j nhouls had already
begin'd 'bramble Tor the mantle of
the illustrious dead. We never
knew a,more disgraceful farce-^han
those obsequies ajCMr. Stephens.
There was nothing in the. ceremo
nies, save the feeling address* of
General Toombs, to-bring to mind
the life and character of the de
ceased. This public calamity was
turned into a huge advertisement to
attract a crowd to bur Capital, and
thus transform a nation’s grief info
profit for the money-changers of
Atlanta. Even the last wish of the
illustrious dead was disregarded. It
was his desire to be buried beside
his mother, and we read that his
bones are laid within a receiving
vault in a magnificent city of the
dead at our Capital. He will again
be disturbed and another display-
made over his inanimate clay.
We believe in the state honoring
the memory of Mr. Stephens, for
he was a great and a' good man,
but we are opposed to that mean
ingless pomp and ceremony so at
variance with the taste and life of
the deceased. As a stricken peo
pie we should have gathered around
his bier, and with that beautiful
simplicity which has ever charac
terized the Great Commoner, paid
a feeling and sincere tribute to his
spotless life. With as little delay
as possible his body should have
been carried back to his beloved
Liberty Hall, and there, in that
peace and love and a simplicity
which illustrated of his life, laid
among the dust of his kindred.
THE GUBERNATORIAL. CONTEST.
The papers state that the first act
of our new Governor after his in
stallment into office was the kissing
of a pretty niece. This shows our
Executive to be a man of excellent
taste. If he will now only back
Judge Estes, and substitute a pair
ot sweet lips for the Bible, won’t
there he a scramble among the old
bachelors for office. They'll want
to be elected just for the pleasure of
taking the oath.
Yesterday, on the street, we
heard the following names suggest
ed for Governor of Georgia, and
each had more or less supporters:
Pope Barrow, II. D. McDaniel,
Evan P. Howell, Henry W. Grady,
Bill Arp, Joel A. Billups, James M.
Smith, of Oglethorpe, A. Oscar-
wildc Bacon, II. II. Carlton, Allen
D. Candler, Augustus Reese, E. II.
Pottle, J. C. C. Black and J. H. Es-
till. Besides these there were a
number of qunrter horses.
FUNERAL POMP AND CIRCl
STANCE.
We cannot endorse the extraor
dinary display made over the re
mains of our late lamented Govern
or in Atlanta, and we believe that
had Mr. Stephens any idea of the
parade to be had over his inanimate
clay that he would have condemn
cd it with the last breath of his life
We believe in a man’s remains be
ing borne to its grave with as near
ly as possible the same surroundings
that were his taste and pleasure
through life. It is a well-known
fact that our late Governor was
man of plain and retiring habits,
and he scouted as much as any one
pomp and display. He could not
tolerate it in life, and we are confi
dent that it would not have been
his wish after death. We think it
would have been far more appro
priatc for the friends of his youth to
have taken charge of Mr. Stephens
remains, and in a solemn and digni
tied manner have taken them back
to his beloved Liberty Hall, and
there surrounded by the peopl
among whom he lived and whom
he dearly loved, deposited them be
side the dust of his beloved mother.
• The state should have paid every
respect to this great man’s memory
It would have been right for the
Governor to proclaim the time of
his burial a day of prayer, and let
the whole state be bowed in hum
ble submission to the decree of an
All-Wise Providence. Mr. Stc
phens lived as a Commoner, and it
was his pride to be thus denomi
nated. His burial should have been
one illustrative of his life and tastes
not that of pomp and royalty. Such
burial would have been more sol
cmn and impressive, and we feel
that the spirit of this great Christian
statesman would have hovered with
love and gratitude over the scene
and smiled approval upon his loving
people.
But what a different scene was
transacted. Had an Eastern mon
arch passed away there could not
have been a grander display of
gause and tinsel by his oppressed
subjects. There was nothing done
in conformity with the taste and
life of the deceased. For dpys his
body was kept exposed to the gaze
of the curious, surrounded by every
token of luxury and wealth. His
funeral was extensively advertised
as one would a circus, and the at
tractions boldly displayed.' Mr.
Stephens was a man of peace and
civilian, but even the military of the
state was ordered out to add to the
gorgeousness of the funeral pageant,
To add to the disgrac^of the scene,
politicians from different parts of
the state Rocked around his bier
like birds of prey, whetting their
bills by newspaper interviews for
feast upon the office and honors
that death had just vacated. While
Now that the people of .Georgia
have paid the last sad tribute to their
departed Governor, it behooves
them to look around for his succes
sor. There is no need of any undue
haste or excitement, but they should
proceed to the task in a quiet and
dispassionate manner. There is no
lack, either, of material, for even at
this early day the field is crowded
with aspirants, all anxious to serve
the dear people. But it is a matter
of vital importance to choose the
right man. Ours is a grand state,
and we want a Chief Magistrate that
will uphold its honor and dignity—
we want a statesman and a ruler;
not a mere figure-head. Georgia
boasts many such men, and there
should be no scrambling or undue
excitement. It is now a very busy
time with farmers, and a heated
canvas would be the greatest curse
that could be inflicted upon the
country. It would demoralize labor,
and open old wounds that have now
healed. We think it advisable for
the nominating convention of the
democratic party to meet as early as
possible, so as to nip in the bud that
horde of office-hungry aspirants
who would wreck theircountry to
satisfy their inordinate ambition for
power. The indecent haste with
which some candidates hav^e already
announced tbemselyes is; but a prq,
cursor of what we may expect if the
gates . arc thrown open and a pro
longed -canvas allbwed. We would
probably see a repetition of the Col-
quitt-Norwood campaign, with its
accompanying evils. Our sugges
tion is this: Let the State Executive
Committee convene a nominating
convention at the earliest day pos
sible, and request every county to
send its delegates uninstructed.- Let
them choose men in whom they
have confidence, and in them repose
the task of accepting the best name
proposed. When this is done,, all
the party will have to do is to elect
him, and all wrangling and excite
ment is at once allayed.
From the names now before the
people, Hon. H. D. McDaniel, of
Walton, is our first choice. He is a
pure and incorruptible statesman,
and his administration would reflect
honor upon Georgia. He is not a
politician, and being of a retiring
disposition, has never. forced him
self into the prominence that his
brilliant intellect and statesmanship
so richly deserves,
But with the present lights before
us we do not think it would be wise
to bring in a dark horse. While Mr.
McDaniel will have no trouble in
carrying his own section, other por
tions of the state have candidates
equally as strong and popular, and
they will insist upon their claims be
ing recognized. This will naturally
open a field for contention, and we
fear will result in ju^t. what the par
ty ought at this time to try and avert
—a heated political campaign
So taking all thing in view, we
think the wisest policy of the party
would be to nominate Governor
Boynton to fill the unexpired term.
There is not a truer democrat or
purer and more incorruptible
statesman in Georgia. He has
proved himself in every way com
petent to fill this high and responsi
ble office, and he will make a' Gov
ernor of which Georgia may well
be proud. The nomination of Mr.
Boynton would sjhut off all othei;
claimants, and strangle in its jncip*
iency the threatened scramble. His
nomination would give entire satis
faction to the people of this s&ti6n,
for they will feel that^in honoring
such * man ,m (Governor Boynton
they do honor to themselves. It
a wise policy to*"let* well - enough
alone, and, in this connection we
will say that never yps a state bless
ed with a better set of officials than
is Georgia to-day-1* V -1 1 ii.J

opened .wjth .bp^ptiful prayer.
Senator Colquitt presided and spoke
feelingly.
Gen. Gordon delivered' an elo
quent speech and offered appropri
ate resolutions; Judge Crawford
spoke touchingly. Gen. Toombs
rose shedding tears and unable to
speak audibly. He spoke one hour,
with many of his old flashes of elo
quence. He reviewed Mr. Ste
phens’ life and career. Senator
Brown followed Gen. Toombs -in a
striking but short address. General
H. R. Jackson paid an impassioned
tribute. It was the most poetic of
the addresses. Col. ’C. C. Jones
made an eloquent eulogy, ending
with an apostrophe to the distin
guished dead, and referring to the
portraits of Oglethorpe, Jackson
and Troup. Dr. Miller uttered
magnificent analysis of Stephens’
character and wisdom, self-reliance,
incorruptibility and benevolence,
The resolutions were adopted by
rising vote.' Gen. Evans gavi
the benediction. The services last
ed from io to i. Fifteen military
companies take part in the obse
quies this afternoon.
Could the spirit of the great
Stephens have seen the demonstra
tions of bereavement over his death
this afternoon he would have felt
that he had not lived in vain. Fif
ty thousand people engaged in pay
ing respect to his memory. From
the capitol to the cemetery, over a
mile on both sides of the street,
were lined densely with persons.
The funeral ' began at 3 o’clock.
Gen. Evans opened with prayer
which was eloquent and appropri
ate. The singing was exquisite.
Rev. Mr. Jones delivered the fu
neral sermon. It was simple, strong
and fervent, placing the career of
the dead touchingly before the pub
lic thought. Rev. Mr. Adams, of
Augusta, read an extract from the
Bible.
Dr. Talmagc, of Brooklyn, made
a characteristic prayer, full of hom
age to the dead. The hymn “Near
er My God to Thee,’, was tenderly
and beautifully sung.
The procession was grand and
imposing. Eight pairs of black
horses drew the splendid hearse.
The carriages seemed innumerable.
Thirty military companies, having
700 soldiers in attractive uniform,
marched to marshal music.
Savannah had nine companies,
Americus one, Griffin two, Rome’
two, Columbus two, Macon one.
There were ten colored companies.
At the grave Bishop Beckwith
closed the funeral services. The
body was placed in the vault of D.
