Johnson disputed this ground at every
term of the court, or in every political
campaign.
“Oglethorpe county,” Raid Judce Les
ter, “they used to say, was noted for three
things: Its dancing rocks handsome girls
and the Lumpkin family.”
“There were seven sons of old John
Lumpkin, who was foreman of the first
grand jury in the county. He was the
great grand father of the present Judge
of the Superior Court, Hon. Samuel
Lumpkin. Of three sons Wilson Lump
kin was Governor and Senator; J. H.
Lumpkin wes Chief Justice; George
Lumpkin was a Baptist preacher—with
no superior in native intelligence and ag
gressive power. Jack Lumpkin was al
so a Baptist preacher of great parts. Hop
Lumpkinwas a physician of wide reputa
tion. Samnel Lumpkin was a farmer,
and grand father of the present Judge.
Tom was a lawyer and died young. All
were men of great influence. One such
man would have distinguished a State;
but seven in one county had an effect
hardly imagined.”
“Joseph H. Lumpkin, of Rome, was
from Oglethorpe. He went to Congress
from the mountains and ran for Gover
nor, when the deadlock resulted between
himself and James T. Gardner, and Jos.
E. Brown was brought in.”
“There was Joseph H. Lumpkin, who
defended Platt in Augusta for killing a
United States officer. He fainted in the
court house after speaking, and was
threatened with bilious fever. His phy
sician recommended a trip to Europe and
while hs was away, was elected Chief
Justice of Georgia.”
“One of the most fhmour revivals in
the county was in 1835, which was start
ed by the famous preacher, Jack Lump
kin: The fervor spread like the fires of
Smithfield.”
The political contests have been fa
mous in this county. Stephens and
Toombs, way hack from the fathers, dic
tated the polices in this district. Judge
did fellow, observes closely and discusses
intelligently.
He tells me that Wilkea county just
now is probably better off than any
county. Oglethorpe and Hancock are
suffering from short crops and the credit
system. Madison county is a capital
county. There wi.a no conspicuous ac
cumulation of wealth, but people gener
ally were in good condition. Farms were
small, basiness safe, and credit less ex
tended.
I asked him abont prohibition?
He thought its effects had been salu
tary throughout the circuit It had done
•Oglethorpe good, and was generally ben
eficial. It was not shown directly in the
lessening of crime. Crimes of personal
violence had diminished, but offenses
such as are prosecuted in the courts—
'arceny, rape, fraud Ac., were not directly
controlled by liquor, and judgment could
not be based on the length of the term of
court in the number of criminal cases.
Beyond and above all that, prohibition
has been beneficial.

OENIBAL COUNTY NOTES.
Oglethorpe county produces 17,000
bales of cotton annually, or about one
bale to eveiy person within its limits. In
1880 there were 1,570 farms in Ogle
thorpe valued at $1,315,257—tha pro
ducts of which were worth $791,807.
There was produced 200,534 bushels of
corn, 59,832 of oats; 57,713 of wheat and
12,336 bales of cotton. The land
turned in 1885 was valued at $962,011.

and Col. Jenks Jones met on the stomp
in Lexington. Wright won the laCrels
on the stump, but Jones took his seat in
Congress.
Stephens and Toombs fought Ben Hill
hard. He disputed their power in the
district. Hill won a famous victory even
over Stephens on the stump at Lexing
ton; but no man eTer broke the iron
sway of these giants in the district
“Julius Caesar never nursed stronger
ambition or carried more power than lit
tle Alex,” said Judge Lester.
“There was Sovereignty in the com
pression of his thin lips, and unconquer
able power in his white face.”
“It was whilo these men practiced
here that Judge Andrews, then on the
the bench, admitted that no white man
could be hung on the Northern Circuit
Mr. Stephens seldom appeared for the
prosecution in any case. 1 remember
well the last time he prosecuted a crim
inal in
I Oglethorpe. It was against a negro
who had committed murder. Thomas

To put a stop to this practice, to save
these clever gentlemen from thcmslves,
to protect them from tho crew of black
vultures that hover around them like a
carcas, and to rescue power from the hands
of a drunken and corrupt crew of negroes-
is the duty of our people, nd can only
be done by the democracy centering on
a ticket and electing it. Let us put a
stop to these scrub races, for they are re
sponsible for the disgraceful state of
affairs.
It is unjust to blame the candidates,
It is not either their will or their interest
that they have to give up even more
than the salary attached to an office to
secure it. Money and whisky have been
disbursed in every election, both munici
pal and county, held in our midst for
years past The only difference is that
each year these black blood-suckers are
more greedy in their demands. One
candidate is no more to blame than the
others. They are the victims of the
political cowardice of their p$rty. They
are all democrats, and it matters not who
will be elected, our county will have a
good set of officers. We do not object
to the candidates, hut we do protest
against the “way they are being spread
on.” It is too late in the day now to do
anything, but let us profit by the past
and hereafter nominate one set of can-
cidatas, and let every honest man who is
opposed t» the present state of things
support the ticket.

“There was a murder casein Ogle

Thomas W. Cobb were colleagues in the

“And there is anether thing. But for

Oar faithful oracle, Joe Baughn, tells us
(hat there is but one merchant now in
Oglethorpe who ships cotton to any
other point than Athens.
“I can remember,” said he, “when no one
here pretented to do business outside of
Augusts. Now cotton from Oglethorpe
is nearly all shipped to Athens. Cotton
comes throogh here from Wilkes and
from Lincoln—on its way to Athens.
The Lexington and Crawford markets
now pay high prices for cotton because
of their nearness to Athens.”

A WORD WITH THE CANDIDATES.
There is no very large town in Ogle
thorpe county. Crawford is the largest
with a population of 600 and cotton re
ceipts of 10,000, of which 6,000 ar*
bought there and 5,000 sent from Lex
ington and Washington for shipment to
Athens. Cotton from Elbert, Wilkes and
Lincoln is shipped through for Athens
market.
Crawford is a bright and thriving
place. It is the Harmony Grove of Ogle
thorpe. It does a thriving business and
has overshadowed Lexington commer
cially, Crawford is said to have secured
the railroad on account of the strenuous
objection of the old families of Lexing
ton to have the blare of the whistle and
the innovation of frequent travel. Some
say they feared the railroad would bring
small pox and bad women to the com
munity. It is more than probable, how
ever, that the route was located through
Crawford on account of the high ridge
and the absence of water culverts. It
would have required some heavy work to
go through Lexington.

Crawford holds the remains of the dis
tinguished jurist, and is a progressive
place. The business houses are Stoke-

Mahan & Wilkins, J.P. Armistead, Mar

Heckle, J. S. Hargrove and M.G. Little.
These gentlemen have a business of over
$200,009. In 1867 there were two busi
ness houses and' 3 dwellings. Besides
being the depot for the surrounding sec
tion, Crawford has an elegant school
which Prof. J. F. Cheney hss taught for
13 years. Happy the town with such a
school and such a master. There are
