WOODWARD, Editor and Prop'r. Cleveland, Ga„ May 6, 1892. POLITICS IN GEORGIA. Hon. A. D. Gnndlor, of Gninon- ville, tlio littlu “imo-e.yotl Plow lloy", (iih 1 lie Jm.*k«on Herald oiii'intous him) in oil a visit, to Washington oily, and in an in terview gave his views on the |>o- lltiral situation in (teorgia as fol lows : The demorrary is safe' in Geor gia. Two weeks ago the third party people were aggressive and confident.; they are now outlie run. The leaders are afraid for the rank and file to hear the truth Hid hence have given or ders that they must not rend dem ocratic newspapers, nor hear democratic speeches; but Geor- giaiiH arc not in the lnibit of be ing ordered, and the holiest and intelligent farmers are hunting and finding light. The St. Louis platform is more than they can swallow. In an another month there will ho nobody left in the third party in Georgia hut the chronic soreheads, a few fanatics and a few follows who went into it hoping to got office. No, the most noisy men ill the third party are not farmers at all, but profes sional agitators. Most of the farmers in our state are demo crats and know that the democ racy is their only hope for relief, and they will stay with us. I have made several speeches and this is my ovsorvution wherever I have I Mien. Hon. Carter Tate, of Pickens county, is out in a letter staling that he is sure to represent the (Kiople of the ninth district in congress. Ho also says there is no use in a man running for office unless he is confident that, he can 1ki elected—this the lion. Carter is sure of. Tate is a line man and no one would make 11 hotter c6u- grossmun than he. CupL It. It. Asliury is promi nently spoken of as being a can didate for congress. If the Cap tain enters the field, it is going to take a hard fight to put the lire out between him and Tate. Capt. Ashury is ono of those hust ling little men, and his friends arc almost innumerable. Look out for the engine when you hear the whistle blow. The campaign in Georgia will Itogin early in May. llcsidos our own native orators, Senators, Dan W. V orhees, of Indiana; Senator Zch. 11. Vance, of North Carolina; Senator Vest, of Wis consin, and other speakers of National reputation will address big democratic rallies all over the state; but they will pay par ticular attention to Tom Wat son’s district.—Hartwell Sun. Col. I. W. Avery, in a letter to the Atlanta Constitution, sug gests that a platform of princi ples could be made upon which the alliance and non-alliance wings of the democracy can unite harmoniously and stop the pres ent hurtful division. He says: “Concession and conciliation on both sides will bring them to gether.” The next presidential election will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 8, and the electors then chosen will meet at tho capitols of their re- sjvective states on Tuesday, .Inn- uaiy 10, 1898, to vote for presi dent and a vice-president,. The electoral votes will be counted by congress on Wednesday, Feb. 8, and tho new president will be in- uugerated on Saturday, March t. If you intend to aspire for of fice there can be no better time than now to announce yourself. The time is approaching every day, and if you don’t watch your chances the political cradle will rock on your toes and place you where you can’t be elected or run either. So come along, candidates, and let the ]ample know what you are and where you stand. Have your Job Work executed at this office, it you want satisfaction, The candidacy of Carter Tate for the nomination for congress is being favorably received in all parts of the district. He is the man to win with and tho demo crats knows it. ’Kali for Garter! —('herokee Advance. 't he campaign in 1898 bids fair to be the hottest ono since the llullork regime. There is going to be no shuffling under the “kiver,” but lots of candidates after the election will feel like fainting and falling back in it— and many of whom will not he able to creep. GOLD IN GEORGIA. There are bushels of gold in North Georgia. K. T. Whatley, assistant state geologist has made a careful study of the geology of (lie comities north of Atlanta, and has been busy for several weeks past making out this report for tho geological department of the state. Mr. Whatley talks interesting ly about the precious ores embos omed in the North Georgia moun tains. When questioned as to whether he thinks there is much gold in tho state, he said : “I know there is. It is of course impossible to estimate ac curately the amount that has al ready been taken from tho sur face of North-east Georgia, hut I can name eight counties that have produced at least twenty-live million dollars from the surface. Hy tho surface I mean the placer mines. You see there are two chief classes of gold mines, the “placer mines” which contain free gold in the form of particles or nuggets, and the “vein mines” which contain gold ores. Placer mines are confined to the surface, and are produced hy running water which separates the parti cles of gold from other lighter materials in the same manuer tliat sand is separated from soils and deposited in beds. The vein mines usually extend very deep below the surface and are the sources of the gold. BY NO MKAN8 KNIIAl HTKI). “Is the gold exhausted from these counties? “lty no means. Tho placer mines in most localities have been practically exhausted, but these mines are only an index—a sur face indication—of what thero is beneath. Tho gold from theso mines are only a small percent of tho aggregate amount still con tained in the veins near by, which in some localities extend hundreds of feet below the sur face.” “11 avo any veins been discov ered?" “Yes a great many. I made some discovevies while in North Georgia last Hummer. Some are true fissure veins and some are on beds containing a multitude of small veins. I took a specimen from one vein which assays $250 per ton. The whole will average perhaps $90.” , “Are such veins common?” “No, hut veins are common containing gold in paying quan tities.” “Are many mines in opera tion?” “Not many; a few in each county. A great, many parties have begun operations and fail ed.” “IIow do you account for their failures? Are they duo to inferior ores?” “In some instances they are perhaps due to inferior ores, but in tho majority of eases they are not. To illustrate, not more than ono farmer in ten makes a success in fanning, not more than ono merchant in ten succeeds; and so with other professions. The gold miners of Georgia are ail intelligent class of men but they are not exceptions. It re quires more skill and manage ment to operate a gold mine suc cessfully than is required either to farm or merhandise. because eompaniosjhuve failed it is no rea son why the mines should ho con demned when the assays of the ores show from $20 to $10 per ton. “In one of tho counties of North Georgia a company spent $250,000 for properly and equip ments, hired a man who was not interested in that property to su perintend the work and furnished all the supplies, not one of them living nearer than Huston. Now, if an Atlanta merchant or Geor gia farmer should attempt a simi lar experiment in his business would he not be more surprised lit success than at failure. AN INVITI.NO FIKI.D. “Are tho gold mines of Geor gia an inviting field for capi tal?” “They are if the capital is in vested with n view to the devel opment of the properties. The day has passed in Georgia for ‘mineral booms’, ‘big deals’ or ‘transient mines.’ If it is not it ought to be. IVhat the mineral interest of Georgia needs is devel opment. The speculative ten dency has done more to injure the gold interest of Georgia than anything else. I know many val uable properties of Georgia that are lying dormant simply because they were bought to sell with no intention to work the mines. “.inch transactions may some times enrich individuals, hut they are injurious to the mining in terests of Georgia and should he discouraged. “Yes, the gold mines of Geor gia are inviting to capital, hut not to capital that expects to he doubled without some years of toil combined with skill and practical management to show the true value of the mines. “Capital rightly invested will he rewarded and will help to re veal the hidden wealth of our state. It will give steady and n- numerativo employment to our working classes, gradually swell the volume of currency per capita and make Georgia wlint she de serves to he, u mining as well as an agricultural and a manufacturing state.” A KIND OF A BOOM. “Is it probable that much cap ital will soon be invested to de velop the resources of Georgia?” “I think so. The first thing necessary is a knowledge of these resources. “The people are comparatively ignorant of the rcrsources of Georgia, especially outside of the state. When uncxiiggerated re ports are printed and the facts presented the people will see that it is to their interest to de velop these resources. “The lumbermen will investi gate the special utilities of the different varieties of timber, the quarrymen the different classes of building stone, the miners will investigate new methods of ex tracting metals, and these inves tigations will lead to gigantic in dustries in Georgia.” he is^thsmanT Mr. J. II. Hrownlow, one of White’s great farmers is willing to enter the field for senatorial honors, that is to say he will ,de clare himself, if his friends and fellow farmers will get tho bull in motion. lie will carry almost every vote in his district and will get a very decent share of them throughout tho -three counties.
