THE LATEST PLAN.
The Rnpuli't tiro bidding for
recruits, if there in uny truth in
reports. Now rouii‘8 t he news that
Tom W'ntson, who is t lie buck hone
of the peoples party in this stale,
proposes to embody in their next
platform, the principle features
of the democratic platform.
'I hut is good, mid is one step in
the light direction toward get
ting buck under the Domnerulio
colors. The interest of every
Democrat and l'opnlist in Geor
gia is identical, and we can
never hope to accomplish much
against the opposition of the east
until we pull together us one
man. Hut, is the step Mr. Will-
son has taken in t Lis direction in
tended that way? We believe
not, while wishing it could be
true, lie is simply bidding for
weak-kneed Democrats and bol-
teis from every party, to streiigh*
en his own.
lie may book a few, but he is
■Welcome to the catch, for ’.Dem
ocrat that will holt, or tremble
in the joints of his lower extrem
ities, is of more benefit out of the
party than in it.
If Mr. Watson should carry
Out his plan, we Democrats will
have fun, watching the grimaces
of the rank and tile, as well ns
leaders, while they swallow great
qualities of that political Imn-
.jueting dish known as crow.
BE OF GOOD CHEER.
Whenever the money piinii
caused by the unsettled state of
national afl'nirs, shall have ended,
then we may expect an era of
'prosperity the country has not
O.ijoyc I fm years. The plan is to
get yourself in >hapc to take ad
vantage of it, when it does come.
We ate not a pessimist. If
it rains to-day and tomorrow,
next week, and all the month, we
know there will be a compensa
ting period of glorious sunshine
some day, and we will all be sor
ry that we were mil more pat lent.
If you can keep out of debt, and
enough to keep the liloom in the
cheeks of the prat ling little ones,
don't complain. There will come
a day soon that will bring the op
portunity you are waiting for,
and you must go out to meet it
wit h a smile on your face. The
law of cnmpciisut ion is sure.
It ii ver fails in nature, politics,
nr religion.
with < ieneVal Evans.
On tint' occasion, Mr. Atkin
held uii a letter which ho said |
General (.vans had wiitlen tn|
Judge George S. Rountree of
Kmimui'l comity, in 1K02. in
which Gen era Ml vnm had dee I ined
to onmclo Emanuel county
make a Democratic speech be
cause his ministerial duties pre
vented.
When Mr.Atkinson made this
statement," General Evans rose
and said lie did not remember
ever writing such a letter. He
asked Mr. Atkinson to lead it,
but lie declined to do so. Gen
eral Evans then nskdo the privll
ego of lending the )('tt"i himself,
but it was refused. J le then beg
ged Mf Atkinson to publish tlie
letter, and Mr. Atkinson replied
by putting the letter in his pock
et.
East Friday Mr. Thomas B.
Felder, of Atlanta, made a speech
at S vaiusboru, a ltd Judge Round-
t roe wan in I he audience.
Mr. Felder asked him to state
whether he ever received from
General Evans such a letter as
Mr, Atkinson had describ ’d when
ho flourished an envelope before
the crowd ut llawkin.-ville. Judge
li’oimtree replied in a statement
which showed that the letter lie
did receive from General Evuu- (
vns decidedly different from tile |
lesei iption given by Mr, Atkin
son, General Evans had doelincd
to attend a political meeting and
bnrlieeue.it the ‘nutation of
Judge Rountree, for the good rea
son that lie had a previous en
gagement at another place for
I he same date.
The conduct of Mr. Atkinson
in this matter was manifestly un
lair nml will certainly react upon
him. Judge Roundtree's state
ment does not eoiisi. t with the
interpretation which Mr. Atkin
son placed upon the Evans letter ;
and after Mr. Atkinson had ex
hibited the envoi ope and declared
that its content.-- were such as he
stated, ho should, in common
fairness, have read it or acceded
to the request of Genoa! Evans
that lie might be permitted to do
so.—AI hint e.Iomnai.
THE GOLDMINEr OF GEORGIA.
The appreciation of gold and
I he suddenly increased demand
for it all over the world cannot
fail to st i in ii I a t e t lie gold mining
industry everywhere.
AI lead y I hero is a rev ival of
interest in the mines of northeast
Georgia, a section which, under
the unmoved modern methods
would yield gold far more abun
dantly than in former years,
when it was regarded as one of
the richest gold regions on the
globe.

In the old days it was easy to
take a million dollars out of a
small area in any of these coun
ties, and with deep n-ining and
tlio new process of separating
gold from thi ores these mini’s
could be made the richest in the
world.
Our capitalists mid men of eu- j

looking into this bonanza right I

of tlie>o mines would mals

would doubtless result in the es
