IN THE LAST DITCH.
As the 8th of November draws
nearer and neaier, Tom Watson gets
more and more desperate. The
present congressman from the Tenth
sees very plainly that he is not des
tined to be the next congressman,
and as that conviction dawns more
and more forcibly upon bis mind,
he becomes frantic with despair.
His last play at persecution is
absurd and ridiculous. The idea of
stationing armed men around his
house in the peaceable little town of
Thomson in order to be protected
from injury. Among his home peo
ple why should he fear the loss of
his life ? Why is the Third party
warrior so timorous ? If he carries
a clear conscience, why should he
fear? Did he noi bare his breast for
the bullet of any one who wanted to
take him off the stump ?
"Cowards die many times before
their death, the valiant never taste
of death but once.”
Come forth from your retreat, Mr.
Watson, the Democrats are not go.

The severest punishment they can

THE NEXT SENATE-
In the present Senate there are 47
Republicans, 39 Democrats and 2
Farmers’ Alliancemen. This makes
Republican majority of 6,
and a loss of three Senators would
make the control of the Senate turn
on the vote of the Vice President.
That is the way the majority stood
at the late session of Congress. At
the next Bession the majority of six
will be only nominal, for Stewart, of
Nevada, is supporting Weaver and
may be expected to kick over party
traces at pleasure. His term ex
pires next March, and should he be
re-elected it would not be as a Re
publican, but as a free silver man,
Don Cameron, too, is another Sena
tor on the Republican side whose in
dependence of thought frequently
upsests the set Republican majori
ty.
Of the Republican Senators be
sides Stewart whose terms expire in
1893, Hiscock, of New York, and
"'Sanders, of Montana, are almost
sore to be succeeded by Democrats,
while the seats of Paddock, of Ne
braska, and Casey, of North Dekota,
are almost sure to be lost to the Re
publicans. The other Republican
Senators whose terms-expire next
March and whose succession tarns
the resalt of the election are Feltor,
of Californiat-Hawley, of Connecti
cut; Hale, of Maine; Dawes, of
Massachusetts; Stockbridge, of
Michigan; Davis, of Minnesota;
Quay, of Pennsylvania; Aller, oi
Washington; Sawyer, oi Wisconsin;
and Warren, of Wj oming. And in
several instances the Democrats have
more than a "fighting chance" of
electing the successors to these re
tiring scions.
The outlook is auspicious for Che
Democracy to gain control of the
National Government by the elec
tion next month, and every energy
sbonld be bent in that direction.
The election of Cleveland would be
more than apt to carry with it the
control of the Senate, and most cer
tainly the control of the House.
Then, for the first time in an age,
would the Democracy be in a posi
tion to right some of the wrongs per
petrated by the party in power and
Legislate for the good. of the peo
ple.
As the State Legislatures elect the
Senators, it is apparent that the
Legislative elections next monthsare
of almost as much importance as the
National election. A Republican
Senate would handicap a Democrat*,
ic President and House to such an
extent that tbe full measure of re
forms proposed by the Democracy
could not be worked. Therefore,
Democrats in every State in which a
Senator is to be elected next year
should do their utmost, not only to
elect Cleveland, bat to give him a
Senate in accord with his public
policy.—Savannah Morning News.

kndfra also that instead of $2 a bush
el for his wheat (In Pennsylvania)
he is now receiving 75 cento, which
is 25 cents leas than the cost of pro
ducing it.
Against these facts which are
known to every farmer and known
to every workingman, all the manu
factored statistics within range of
figure work can’t persuade these peo
ple against the truth, which they set
and feel in their every day life They
are the voters who in this contest

TWO CLASSES CAN'T BE FOOLED
Abraham Lincoln once made tbe
trite saying: "Some people can be
footed all the time; all p.jpl? can be
fooled some time, bnt all the people
can’t be fooled all the time.”
The two classes of voters who can’t
he fooled by statistics from Mr.
Peck or partisan committees as to
their prosperity, are the workingmen
and the farmers, says the Philadel
phia Times. Superintendent Porter
is daily Issuing partisan census bul
letins showing how wages are in
creased throughout the country, and
Governor McKinley is telling the
farmers from every stamp bow they
have been benefit,tod by high tariff
taxes.
The workingman can’t be foiled
on the question of wages for the
simple reason that each one knows
for himself whether his wagee have
been increased, whether they have
been decreased, or whether they re*-
main as they were before the pas*
sage of the McKinley bill. All the
statistics in the world can’t convince
a workingman that his wages are
incre: s(d when he knows in fact that
it is not true.

GOOD NEWS FROM INDIANA.
The impartial attitude occupied
by the Associated Press was well il
lustrated in tbe reports from Indian
apolis in yesterday’s Appeal-Ava
lanche. B mrke Cochran, the great
New York orator,spoke at tbe Grand
Opera Honse for the Democracy,
while Depew and Reid spoke for the
Republicans at other halls. As In-
dianoplis is the home of Mr. Harri
son, it would seem that a partisan
news organisation might have leaned
toward the Republican demonstra
tion ; bnt tbe fact that the news or
ganization referred to did not lean
that way shows its thoroughly non
partisan character. For instance,
the Associated Press says: "What
ever of advantage is to be gained
from a display of numbers in pro
cession rests with the Indianapolis
Democrats to night. The Republi
can procession in honor of Messrs.
Reid and Depew had not been mov
ing more than two minutes from the
eastern end of the business portion
of the town before the Democratic
parade started from the west end.
Sncb a crowd ot spectators bad never
before been seen in Indianapolis, no
even on the night daring 1888 wheD
both parties had thvir street demon-
etiation on the same night ” _ The
Associated Press then goes on to
say: "rhough the Republicans had
made their meeting a State rally,and
the Democrats had confined their
efforts toward getting out a crowd to
the city and county, the latter bad
the largest number of men in line,
the figures being about 6000 and
8,000 respectively.” This splendid
Democratic triumph, which, by tbe
way, was chronicled exclusively by
the Associated Press, is one of the
most hopeful signs of the campaign,
If a local Democratic rally in In
dianapolis can so far surpass a State
Republican rally in the same city,
there are the beet ot reasons for be
lieving that Cleveland will carry In
diana by a large msj ority. New York
and Indiana seem reasonably safe
for the Democracy this year.—Ap

ARE THEY YOUR FRIENDS 7
Every colored voter in Georgia
should read the particulars of that
affair at Dalton where three of their
race were whipped and one killed by
Third party men, because they had
voted the Democratic ticket
The Third party men claim to be
the friend of the negro, and yet when
he refuses to go with them, hesitate
not to whip and murder him, as at
Dalton Sunday.
Tbe colored voters of Georgia well
know who are their best friends and
who stands by them in time of trou

apt to remember very well such af

this hour, the din of conflicting in
terests will be silenced, the clamor
of politics will be hushed, the preju

true Americans will unite in an ex
pression of sympathy for the Chief
Executive of the nation in the loss
of his .faithful wife.
The life of Mrs. Harrison has many
shining virtues that will live be
yond the grave, and her' memory
will be cherished fondly by those
who knew and loved her.

aptly remarks that: “Judge Cooley’s

The first piece of work done in the
way of enacting laws by the present
Generally Assembly was scored by the
Senator from the 27th, Judge E- F.
Edwards. He introduced' three bills on
the first day of the session.
SPEAKER ATKINSON-
Hon. W. Y. Atkinsor, of Coweta,
is Speaker of the Georgia House of
Representatives, being elected with
out opposition to that posi ion yes
erday upon tbe organization of tbe
General Assembly. .
fbe contest has been quite spirit
ed between Messrs. Atkinson and
Fleming, but was settled with the
utmost harmony.
Hon. W. H. Fleming is one of tbe
oblast Democrats in Georgia and his
people will call him to the front rank
in their service.
Speaker Atkinson has thoroughly
earned the high office to which he
has been elected. He has served his
State well in tbe campaign and she
has honored herself in making him
Speaker.

SWEDISH LOVERS WED.
The llrlde Cornea All the Way from Swe

Alton, His., Octf 27.—A happy ter
mination to a life romance has been
brought to notice in this city by the
marriage of John Frederik Lindgren to
Miss Hilda Johanna Louisa Grell. Both
are natives of Sweden and have seen
more than forty summers. Many years
ago they parted,-John to seek his for
tune in this country, while Hilda wait
ed. John was indnstrions and busy,
and is now a bridge inspector in the em
ploy of Geo. S. Morison of Chicago, en
gineer of the Alton Bridge. Having
plAced himself in a position which would
justify such a course he sent to the Old
Country for Hilda, and she arrived here
Tuesday morning. The reunited lovers
proceeded to the nearest justice of the
peace and were at once married, the
sendees of an interpreter being necessa
ry for Hilda. The wedding was wit
nessed by the remainder of the Swedes
in the city.

legislature the neoessl y of the State
accepting it and maintaining it.
We ha w e always been in favor of
Georgia taking this u a jnifioent piece
of property and maintaining a home
for her old veterans, and we lament
ed the disposition of the last General
Assembly to cast it aside. Not only
would it be e sound business and
financial step, bnt an apt of duty and
appreciation of past services to the
Staley and it would be endorsed all
over Georgia.

New York, Oct. 27.—The sales of

A Serious Outbreak in Boston.
Boston, Oct. 27.—A serious outbreak
has occurred at a house of correction in
south Boston. Aboutsixty officers have
been ordered there from police head
quarters.
Just at noon, Vice-President Morton
and the members of the cabinet acting
as honary pall bearers, entered the east
room and soon after came the president
supporting his daughter, Mrs. McKee,
on his arm. They were followed by Mr,
and Mrs. Russell Harrison, Rev. Dr
Scott and Miss Parker, Mr. McKee and
Mrs. Dimmook, Hon. J. V. L. Findley,
of Baltimore,the president’s cousin,ant i
Mr. Findley, Lieut. Parker, and Pri
vate Secretary Halford.
The scene was strikingly beautiful.
The chandeliers cast a flood of mellow
light, the windows having been dark
ened. .Several mantel pieces were
banked with ferns and banked at each
end by larger palms. Around the casket
were grouped a great wealth ofjloral
offerings through which the friends oi
Mrs, Harrison, present and absent,tes
tided their appreciation of her worth
while living and their sorrow at her
death.
They filled all the space on either
side of the casket almost to the window
on the east and the door into the cor
ridor on the west, connecting the apart
ment with the private portion of the
house.
Rev. Dr. Hamlin the president’s pas
tor, opened the services with prayer;
then followed “Abide with Me,” sung
by the choir of St. John’s Episcopal
church, on the conclusion of which
Rev. Dr. Bartlett read passages from
the scripture appropriate to funeral ser
vices. Another hymn, “Lead, Kindly
Light,” was followed by the conclud
ing prayer by Dr. Hamlin, and then the
casket was borne out of the house by
eight stalwart men selcoted from the
force of executive mansion ushers. On
the broad portico of tbe white house the
president stopped a moment to don an
overcoat, which the chill, .raw atmos
phere made necessary, then he entered
a carriage with Mm. McKee and Mr.
and Mrs. Russell Harrison, and was
driven to the place in line. Nearly all
government departments had been
closed from 10 o’olock to noon, and the
crowds of employees gathered near the
white house and on the steps of the
treasury building to watch the proces
sion pass along Pennsylvania avenue.
Hundreds more gathered on the side
walks and nearly all the men doffed
their hats as the hearse went by.
It was a slow moving cortege, about
two blocks in length, and took forty
minutes to coyer the dozen blocks be
tween the white house and the station.
At the station a very large, but silent
crowd awaited the presidential party on
the platform until the casket had been
placed in the funeral oar. The train
left for Indlananolis at 11:40.

Augusta, Ga., Ocr. 27.—The teeth
district mar have a taste of the force
bill on November 8th.
Petitions have been sent in to Judge
Pardee of the United States court to
appoint supervisions in Richmond and
Wilkinson counties, and they were
signed by republicans and third party
men.
The judge’s order is as follows:
United States Circuit Court, Fif h
Judicial District, New Orleans, October
24.—H. H. King, Clerk of United States
Circuit Court, Savannah, Ga.—My Dear
Sir: Enclosed find petitions from Wii.
kinson and Richmond counties in thi
southern district of Georgia for the ap.
polntment of supervisors of election and
deputy United States marshals which
please file in your office at prop r place
and notify chief supervisor of Sou hern
district of Georgia thereof. Also notify
him and perhaps you can convey the
same information to the newspapers,
that I have designated Judge Speer to
open court in the southei n district of
Georgia for eleotion purp ises in order
to appoint supervisors of elections as
contemplated by the statutes of the
United States. Very truly yours,
Don A. Pardkk.
The petition for supervisors has
created no scare for the democrats are
sure of beating Watson at all odds.
Major J. B. Cumming unreservedly
gave it as his professional opinion that
application for supervisors, as far as
Richmond connty was concerned, was
too late as the law says where there is
a registration law in a county, applica
tion must be made ten days before the
registry list opens. Richmond has a
registry law, so the supervisors cannot
be apnointed for this county. The ap
plication for supervisors in WiikiLSon
is not too late, as that county has no
registration law and the election is fur
ther off than ten days. The matter will
come up for argument when Judge
Speer convenes court.
The democrats construe Watson’s ac
tion and the signers oi applications as
in favor of the force bill and they will
all be remembered. Watson is a deal
cock in the pit, and like a drowning
man is grabbing at every straw.
