In enterin': the race General Gordon exercises the indebitahle right of the citi zen. He goes into it frankly and with all the old-time energy and enthusiasm To go before the peosle and talk with them face to face, seeinsto be the formula of his campaign. This policy is always a safe one. It challenges confidence and insures an open and fair fight. General Gordon makes the campaign on his own merits, as the other candidates do. He will declare his position on public ques tions, from the stump and through the public prints. The other candidates will doubtless do the same.—Constitution. This gTand man last May in our opera house, in his magnificent speech before the National commercial convention, said: “When the issue comes as to wheth- erthe corporations shall rule this country or the people—understand that I am with the people.—Atlanta Journal.

Gor don lor the selection of delegates to the state convention by primary election is a high-handed proceed in''. as unusual as it is usurpatious, and it is not only an attack on the democratic usage of conventions, hut an attempt to dictate to the vo ters ol the various counties in Geor gia. that no free people will tolerate. This request is also a severe reflection on the honesty of the democracy of Ucorgia and the intelligence of the average voter In fact. Gen. Gordon is but re-echo ing the independent wail, sounded Irom every slump in the old seventh and ninth districts by Felton and Speer. We are surprised that mmol Gen. Gordon's patriotism and sense should have been led into issuing such a document over a j hj s post only three weeks longer, his name, and we hope that, upon reflection, he will yet repudiate a demand so dictatorial and insulting to the people from whom he ex pects to draw his support. We do not suppose that the Executive Committee of the state wiil lor an instant consider such a request,even w ere it signed by both the guberna torial candidates, tor it is a matter foreign to the province of this body, and the usurpation of a right that belongs solely to the counties them selves This committee will doubt less argue that the democrats of the counties have patriotism enough, and the individual members sense enough, to select their delegates without having outsiders MULLESIN.

If for no other reason. Major Ba con should be elected Governor ot Georgia because he merits the place on account ot his peculiar fitness— the Major being one of the finest bu’-iness men in the South. Tht office of Governor, unlike that ot congressman or senator, is not a po sition for display of eloquence ot or other winning gifts; but it is a plate where hard work and good management are the principal requi sites. McDaniel has made one ol the best chief magistrates Georgia ever had, and it is to his superioi business qualifications that this fact is attributable. A man who is loose in the management ot his own af fairs, and who has depended on chance and speculation tor his sup port, is entirely out of his sphere in the Governor’s seat, and the peopU- will so discover when they select such an officer to manage the intri cate affairs of state. Even the friends of Gen. Gordon will not claim that he has ever been a suc cessful business man, for as is a well known fact his financial career has been a most chequeted one—up to day and down to-morrow. It would be an injustice not only to Gen. Gordon, but to the state, to give suchan unfortunate financier control of the great business entailed with the Governor’s office. Gen. Gordon is a brilliant statesman and his elo quence and hearing would attract attention anywhere. He was pe culiarly fitted for United States Senator, where his splendid powers were at a premiam and hia dut) lay in displaying them. But when you place him in the gubernatorial tread mill, his administration will do neither himself nor his friends cred it. Not, however, through an) wilful mismanagement on the pan of Gen. Gordon, but because such an office is entirely outside of his sphere. On the other hand. Major AUSTRIA TO.CRY <iUITS- A Minister to 1>* Sent to Title Country.

Gordon proposes to rely on this mongrel class lor his nomina tion, and ignore all the vested rights of the county democrats, the Chair man of the State Executive com mittee had just as well revoke his call for a meeting, and let there he a go-ns-you please scramble for the state offices. Gen. Gordon's request is an insult to the intelli gence and patriotism of his party, and is an attempt to make a guardian of the state committee for the democrats of Georgia. I fa county chooses to select delegates by primary election they are at liberty to do so; hut this matter should now, as has been the custom in the past, he left solely to the good judgment and patriotism ot t lie various counties ot Georgia. The interest of democracy has not siillercd by this rule in the past, and it will nut in the future. Primary elections for delegates to conven tions is the first step toward break ing down the safeguards that sur round our party and is a dangerous experiment that we cannot afford. GENERAL VS. MAJOR. The efl'ort being made to consoli date the soldier vote on Gen. Gor don, at the expense of Major Bacon, is unkind and unjust to other grades of the service. Major Bacon was just as good a soldier as General Gordon, and served his country just as gallantly and faith fully; and )et efforts are being made to ignore and repudiate the former, just because he did not wear as many strips on his shoulder as the higher officer. We think the Gen erals ol the late war have received their lull share of honors and emol uments, and where weeandoso with due regard to fitness, let us now begin down the ranks and re ward according to merit. Such a policy as heaping every honor and trust on the Generals, at the expense of equally as deserving and efficient soldiers who did not rank so high or shouldered only the musket, is an impartiality that no fair-minded vet eran will countenance. We say, now that the war is ended, let every voter he weighed in the same bal ance anti rewarded according to fitness for the place he seeks. So hear in mind, ye gallant boys, when you are urged to vote for Gen. John B. Gordon on account of his being a soldier, that Ma jor (). A. Bacon is equally as de serving of your support on that ac count, and that he faced just as many bullets, and remained just as long at his post of duty, as did General Gotdon. We honor Gen. Gordon for his devotion to the cause of the South, and Georgia has already shown her appieciation of his ser vices by electing him to the United States senate, and would have re pealed tile compliment lutl he not resigned. On the other hand. Ma jor Bacon has never as yet received recognition from his peo ple for his equally as gallant ser vices, and now, that victory appears almost in his grasp, has the enemies of this true democrat and valliant soldier, in their frantic efforts to de feat him, after beating the bushes ol Georgia in vain for an adversary to measure swords with him, as a dernier resort, they import from the everglades of Florida Gen. John B. Gordon, for no other purpose than the fact of his being the strong est candidate they could muster. If there is any vindication to be done, it seems to us that it is the honest duty of every true Confed erate soldier to rally around the atandard of Major Bacon, and pre vent a certain ring of politicians Simmons will for an instant sup pose him guilty of any act that he believes inconsistent with his honor or the position he fills, at the same time this charge seriously imperilled his chances for the gubernatorial prize. Holding one office while electioneering for another was a practice that the people determined to suppress. It is pretty safe to say that if Ire land gets home rule with or without restrictions Irish landlords will he forced to show a little mori consid eration for their tenants. Lady Agnes Belle, of Marville House, Kinvarra, writing to a New York paper under date of April 16, 1SS6, says: “Words are inadequate to properly express the sufferings endured by the rack-rented families, evictions taking place every day and women and children being turned whole sale into the streets, without the least hope of ever being able to find shelter and food. I could mention hundreds of such cases, but will not trespass upon your valuable space. Only a few weeks ago a family were evicted, and the landlord would not allow any of his tenants to give them shelter for the night. The woman’s own brother dare r.ot take her in, although she was enciente. The consequence was, in the moru- ing, her corpse was found in the snow with a new born babe dead in her arms.” CLINCMAIM’S OBACCO REMEDIES CALISA.YA BAHK beirg the baae.

The bait is all right, hut the fish erman is just a little bit of er-rer— well, when the water is so transpar ent that the fish can plainly see the designing fisherman—tackel and all, they sometimes refuse to “bite” at the best of bait.—Albany News. Major Bacon’s war record is as good as Gordon’s. He fought as long and as gallantly as did Gordon, and if none are to he Governors ex cept those who became generals, then few ol our public men are eli gible, and none who have given up and entered upon their careers since the war.

General Gordon resigned his seat in the senate about three weeks be fore that body adjourned. Ilis plea was he was too poor to remain sen ator. VVliat results followed? In the first place, he lost his salary Ironi May to December, amounting to over three thousand dollars; and in the second place, he took away Irom the people the opportunity to elect his successor through their legislature. He believes now their being heard as to who shall be put in office. Why didn’t he give them a chance before? He raved about twenty day’s time by resign ing, and paid for this time over three thousand dollars. We do not intend to deny Gen. Gordon’s right to resign, er impugn his motives for so doing; but we only refer to the above to show the inconsistency of this distinguished candidate's past acts and his present professions.
