A HORRIBLE FATE-
Miss IjAMPKIN, OP JACKSON
COUNTY, IS AT. THE POINT OF
DEATH.
SHE WAS TERRIBLY BURNED.
While out in the Field Where New
Grounds Were Being Burned off,
her Clothing Catches Fire—A
Sister’s Attempt to Extin
guish the Fire—A run of
Three Hundred Yards
Encircled In Flames.
Miss Lampkin, the fourteen-year-old
daughter of Mr. Crawford Lampkin,for
merly of this city,met with a horrible
fa'e yesterday afternoon, from which
little hopes are entertained of her re
covcry.
Shu was out in the field where new
grounds were being cleared
and burned oft, when her dress caught
lire. The flames so"n encircled the
yourg lady, and she frantically scream
ed for help, and endeavored to extin
guish the fire herself.
A little eleven-year-old sister, wl.o
was the only person near, ran to her as
sistance, but her eft'er’s were unavail
ing. She too, was badiy burned about
the hands in trying to tear the burning
clothing from her elder sister’s body.
FiDdirg that the younger sisterwas
utterly unable to do anylbing to extra
guish the lire, Miss L rnpkin
Ran Three Hundred Yards
to her father’s home, completely
encircled in lire. The blaze llashed
oyer her head as she ran, at-d when sin
reached the house, n< t a thread of cloth
ing was left on her lo ly.
J>r. Cash was immediately sent for
aid did all in his power to alleviate
the ui fortunate sufferer, but her ca:.
is conn'dsred a mo-1 critical one.
Little hopes are ent<rtair,eu of the
rot ov< ry of Mis* Lumpkin, as her burns
are considered by all who have seet
her, to be of a fa’al nature.

kin, is a son of Mr. Wm H.L nnj.kin o

WHY NOT TO WORK?
THE DEMOCRATIC EXECUTIVE
COMMITTEE SHOULD MEET AND
PLAN THE CAMPAIGN
Throughout the Eighth District—CoT.
John P. Shannon, cf Elbert, le
Chairman—The Work
Ahead of Them.
The Eighth District of Georgia has a
Democratic Executive Committee.
But it has never been called into ses
sion as yet.
The committee consists of Messrs.
John P. Shannon, of Elbert, Chairman;
S. K. Cannon, of Franklin; D. A. An
thony, of Clarke; C. C. Davison, of
Greene; A. J. McM.i!len,of Hart; B.T.
Mosely, of Madison; W. D. Barker, of
Morgan; B. E. Overby, of Oconee;
W M. Howard, of Oglethorpe, J. S
Reid, of Putnam, and W. W, Sims, of
Wilkes. The member from Jasper was
appointed while In the old sixth dis
trict.
A prominent citizen remarked yes
terday that it was high time for a session
of this committe®. Said he: “The Third
party is being pushed through this dis-
rict with a zeal that should wake the
Democracy in a hurry. There is need
not only of compact organization but
also of a thorough campaigning of the
entire district. The Excoutive Com
mittee of the district shou’il meet at
once and plan the cam
paign to be conducted
in the old eighth. Chairman Shannon
should lose no time in getting his com
mittee into a meeting and talking over
the situation.”
The general opinion thopougbout the
district is in fu’J accordance with the
views of tins citizen.
The Democracy of the eighth mu3t
get into harness, and the executive com
mittee should meet at once.
THE SECRET.
It is very wrong to grumble about
the special tax that some say has been
unjustly foced upon a certain few of
Alliens’ most worthy and honest P ople
by the f tliera of fhe city. Bpt it’s a>l
rigl t. The seen t of the whole thing is
just this: The Aid-mien and His Hon
or, the Mayor, aie realizing the great
importance that the ClassicCily of Ath.
ns should be (he ow^er a city dock
for its better credit and their own con-
v. nin ce, and have taken this step to
raise the wherewith t° purchase it with
out calling on those whose business and
interest does pot come in contact with

A Scroll and Fret Work Manufactory
May Be Estab'lshed.
Pr-vn reliable ntiiority a Banner re-?
porter learned yesterday that negotia
tions were pending fir the establish
ment of a scroll aud fret work manu
factory in Athens. Tbecompiny will
probably build their factory on Broad
street, nea- - Parr Bros.’ paint mill. If
built the factory will be a two-story
building, and the factory will turn out
all manner ot fancy wood word. Such
enterprises as this tend to build up the
city.
AN ART DISPLAY
To be Held In Athens Next Month.
The lovers of fine art in Athens will
be delighted to know that .during the
middle of May an art display will be
made at Haselton & Dozier’s store on
Clayton street thaf promises to attract
considerable attention.
The idea is an unique and pleasing
o e. Messrs. Haselton & Dozier will
clear out everything in their store to
make room for the exhibition and every
artist in the city will be requested to
bring his or her work to be placed in
the exhibition.
The art display will continue for
three days, and it will be suet as will
be a credit to the city. Athens has
many talented artists in her midst and
this display will be enjoyed very much
by the citizens.

EVAN HOWELL’S DREAM
When Asleep Upon the Batll9 Field.
S weral weeks since W. T. Stead of
the London Review of Reviews sent a
cablegram tp Mrs. Louiie M. Gordon,
askii g her tq writes him some “ghost
stories,” or true strange experiences
of people she knows. Jn his New
Year’s extra number of the Review of
Reviews, called ‘*More Ghost otcries,”
Mr, Stead says:
“A friend of mine, Mrs. Gordon,
writing to me from Atlanta, Ga., send*,
me the foil* wing curious instance of a
clairvoyant vision of childbirth which
she had at first hand (rom one of the
most prominent citizens of $hp st^te of
Georgia.
He then relates the experiences given
him by Mrs. Goidonas follows:
While chatting with Capt. Evan How
ell at an evening entertainment lasted
him to tell me a real ghost story to send
to you. He looked at me rather seri
ously, and said that he had a dream
which had made him wonder a great
deal what ft all means—these mind-
readings and dreams which had “come
true.”
He said that when he was In the war
between our South and the North, that
the night after a battle he fell into a
deep, almost unnatural sleep, and
dreamed that a son was born unto him.
He dreamed some very peculiar circum
stances connected with the birth, and
about the appearance of the room, the
physician and each one present.
He suffered with sympathy for liis
wife, and awoke ip this strained ner
vous 3tate. Heatouce looked at his
watch, and not being able to sleep
again he wrote to his wife telling her
the hour and what the dream had been
The reply to his letter informed him
that the dream was true—the peculiar
circumstances, the physician, the people
present and the hour.
The son.born at that time is the Hon.
Clark Howell, managing t ditor of one
of the largest papers in this section of
the South; and he is speaker of th
bouse of representatives of Georgia.

The Banner is in receipt of the fol

Washington, D. C.; April 2, 1892.
Ahcut to enter up m a campaign in
which the Presidency and the House of
itepreseLt tives are immediately at
stake, snd ultimately the entire control
of the geueral government, we are di
rected by the Executive Committee of
the Na.ionnl Association of Democratic
Clubs to urge upon the Demccratic
people cf the Ucim the necessity of
prompt, efficient and general oiganiza-
< ion for the impending co .fl cf.
If the omtest weie ODe for the offices
»lone, or for the gratification of the
per on il ambition of individual leaders
on either sid-, aud if ihe administration
to be cboser, in any event, might be ex-
pccted merely to “glide through the offi
cial routine'’ of goyimment for the
teun of its exi-tence
with no iinpvrmett of ou
free mstitLt'op*, no assault upon the
reserved rights of the people, no seizure
by taxation, of their property or profits
to be (uined over to favored classes,
and no restrictif p of their markets for
the benefit cf mor.opolies, it would be a
matter of surR rnomtn’, which paMy
might succeed. B.ut we know only fc 0o
well that the p.uty in power wiR pot,
and by the very i*w of ils existenc •.
cannot, r» garei the limitations of the.
Constitution; that it is irresistibly im-
P 1 ed by ita doctrines and tradition*,
from Ham (ton to Q .ay, apd by the
va^t aggregation of private monopolies
which it embraces and combines and by
which it is su.-t-pned, to break through
t e confines of the Federal charter on
every side. Thi* is nof the place oy the
time to develop in its tretpep lous pro
portions, at fl wifh its dreadful menaces,
the Fedoralis’-Rcpublican scheme
of strorg, splendid, rorten gov
ernment, resting upon cor_
ruption apd force, and employing ihe
power of taxitipn toensLye the l et-or-
ing masses, in orfler to bui) s up iu <ux-
uiy and wealth the ruling classes. Aii
Anieneaii hisuyy ejehibv.a »mr _ atfert*
it. But [he most recent experience < f
the people is m re than mougu f. rij
lustration.
Congress mry, under the Constitu
tion, tax the pec pie to sustain their
own gavernme nt. Itbas,however, just
as much light to take their liv^s, cy to
sell their children in to bondsg-', as it
has to take a dollar from them for any
other, purpose. But the Federalist
party, purely to cr«atAmonopolies up:m
whioh it may rely for political support,
and to further enrich its wealthy fa
vorites, boldly es3umesthe ungranted
and forbidden power to lay taxes, w ith
r.o view whateviif to public reve
nue, bqt ’ with a sole at d
avowed view to transfer untold millions
of money annually from the pockets of
the many, who have earned ir, to the of
fers of the few who arc licensed to sieze
it in virtue of their unconstitutional
monopolies. If this can he dope, there
is an epd of liberty; our federal gov
ernment is utterly perverted; it is not
merely a fraud, but a despotism; and
there is nothing left worth a struggle
The power to take and appropriate to
others the proceeds of the people’s labor,
is the power to emlave the people.
None such can be found in the federal
constitution. And the question wheth
er it shall be exercised, though un
granted, anfl, therefore, forbidden, is
the question, as Mr. Jefferson stated it
“between a limited and an unlimited
government,” between selfgov6rnmrn r ,
and corrupt centralization, be
tween popular liberty and
grasping and greedy tyranny, between
the masses and the classes, between the
Federalist-Republican and the Demo
cratic parties.
The great battle for freedom of flec
tions in the last Congress, was but an
incident—albeit a terrible and meuac
ing one—of this dread struggle between
the great mass of the people and the
banded monopolists iu coalition with a
ruthless pc liticat party. The passage
tf the Force Bill would have insured
for an indefinite period, the unquestion
ed supremacy of the monopolists and
their pel tical agents; and they would
have gone on taxing the people to fill
their own pocket*, secure in their con
trol of the ballot boxes and the
returns, until oveithrown by revolu
tion. The chief newspaper organ of
the conspiiacy printed but the plain
truth when it declared the Foroe Bill
wou’d be theend of all, since it ‘‘car
ried a hundred McKinley bills in it cui
brsce.” Thus would the Federalist-Re-.
publican party grasp, with one band
the throat of const tutional lilierty,
while with the other, it rifles the peo
ples’pockets, and transfer, a vast ag-
gretate of lawless p‘ui;fl*r to the mo
nopolist allies. So the issus rt ends
We must not iieceive'ouraelve3. Permit
thi* conspiraostruck and shattered by
the pop lar indignation in 1890 to r -
their own defence. We have already
been advised both by the m nopoly lead
ers, and by the National Democratic
Committee, that the contest will be
'argely a contest of c’ub3. Pol t cil
mi thods change with circumstances. As
in the earlier days «.f the Republic,
when the question, was, as now, be
tween strong government in the inter
est of the masses, the Democratic Soei-
e‘y becomes again the resource and
the resort of the oppressed
and alarmed people. A system of
Democratic Societies as nearly uniform
as may be throughout the Union, will
carry the popular cause to complete and
final triumph in 1892, just a* certainly
as did the original system under the
leadership of the immortal Jefferson.
It is the natural and voluntary organi
zation of the people, fi r *t, in their
neighborhoods; second, in their States,
and, third, in the Union, to expose the
purposes, acd to meet the onset of the
trained band* cf central zation and
monopoly. We therefore urge the
timely formation of primary societies
in e.very district, and their early union
in State Societies ai d in this national
association.
The General Committee cf the Na
tional Association of Democratic Club3.
consisting of four members from each
State and Territory, will meet at Chi
cago on the 2lst of June, and the time
and plac* cf the national convention of
Dcmocrat’c Clubs will be determined,
tiLd the call duly issued. Whereverthe
Demoratic Societies of any state shall
have formed a Sta^-j organization, the
latter wpl be entitled to eLyen dele
gates at large in the convention,
Meanwhile, we repeat the very re
spectful but urgent advice which has
been annually issued by this Associa
tion, to the several Dom"cratic Socie
ties of the- U nited States to clebrate in
ome appropriate manner, the birth
day of Thomas Jefferson, the founder
of the Democratic party, and we com

almonitiou of the illustrious Tilden:
“At a time when powerful tendencies
are at work to subvert the original

Life Insurance company has taken place.
Forty-seven thousand votes were cast,
