TUESDAY, MAY 25, 1886.
All of the official advertis
ing of Bartow county will be
found in the American.
Bacon and Gordon are addressing the
people throughout South Georgia.
It lies between Bacon and Gordon, and
we are teaching our “devil” to crow for
Bacon.
The richest joke of the season is the
Constitution’s allegation that Bacon is a
ring candidate.
The Georgia press is still feeding its
columns on articles concerning the strikes
and strikers.
The Philadelphia Times: “By the time
Blain unfurls the bloody shirt, the shirt
will be as unnecessary as Blaine.
The Man in Jeans is seldom deceived by
false issues or misled by the sophistry of a
political campaign. This year he is for A.
O. Bacon, Wait and see.—Macon
Telegraph.
If tho whole State started out sol
lid for Gordon, as the Coustitu tion, we
can’t see where the “great revolution
of sentimental” claims come from.
A Young baby was recently given a
piece of fat bacon to chew upon by its
grandmother, who said, when objections
where offered: “Let it alone. As long as
it sticks to Bacon it will be all right, and
grow up to be a power in the land.”
Macon Telegraph.
Manager Grady’s hint that “the Bacon
men were organizing” is having the
desired effect, and the Gordon men are
organizing. We have not heard of but
two Bacon Clubs —one in Atlanta and
one in Augusta.
Gordon says dictate to the people how
they shall appoint delegates to the
State convention. Bacon says the
people have a right to select their own
methods, and I’m willing to trust them
any way they choose.
The destructive freshets now upon
Georgia are of much more Importance than
anything else. In fact the calamity is
much greater upon the people than the
impending gubernatorial campaign. Thou
sands of farms have been rendered useless
for the present year, as it is now too late
to replant. Misfortunes rarely come
single handed.
Admitting only for the sake of the ar
gument that a few enthusiastic Bacon men
hooted and yelled at General Gordon at
the theatre, and forced him to retire from
the Stage (which they did not, for order
was restored and he was implored to
proceed) it was not half as bad as the men
in Eatonton treated Major Bacon. They
attempted to get upon the stand with pis
tols and swore that they would kill him,
and that he should not speak. And yetthe
Gordon organs fail to raise a howl over
that outrage.—Augusta News.
Why is this great howl of the Atlanta
Constitution, the burden of which is to
impress the minds of the people with the
idea that Bacon’s followers are opposkl
to primary elections ?. Is it in accordance
with facts, when Bacon states that if it be
the will of the people, he is perfectly will
ing to abide by it. It has just as much
right to say that Maj. Bacon is opposed to
mass meetings, for he also stated, in his
reply to Gordon that if the counties adopt
ed that means that he would acquiesce in
it. Then why attempt to distort this into a
construction, which is to the contrary of
these statements. —Irwinton Southern and
Appeal.
THAT BLADGEIT VOTE.
The Marietta Journal’s old rehash of
the charge that “Fain voted for Clem
ents” is too thin to effect men who are
postod, but it may prejudice the minds
of the young voters just coming on the
stage. During those dark days of
bayonet rule, our little hand full of
Democrats were striving to recover the
State government to our own people.
Tho Democrats in caucus agreed
that a certain number would vote for
Biadgett provided the Repuclicaus
would not turn Judge Wilburn, a true
Democrat, out of his seat which was con
tested by a “brother in black;” especially
as they knew that any election of a
seuator by that Legislature would be
illegal. Wei born, McArthur, Fain and
tho other few Democrats, to whom
Biadgett was as repulsive as auy, simply
agreed to this to save the seat of a Dem
ocrat, and to hasten the restoration of
Democratic rule. They all have been
trusted with honorable position at the
hands of Democrats ever since, and it
is too late in tho day to attempt to
injure them by this charge.
About this same time the Journal’s
own county gave Henry G. Cole, re
publican, 1,000 majority for Congress,
and we don’t think Gobi) ought now
to be ruled out of the party for it.
Too thin, boys; you’ll have to get up
something eke.
ANNOUNCEMENT OF MU. CLEMENT •
To the People of the Seventh Congres
sional District of Georgia:
In pursuance of the kind solicitations
of many of you I am a candidate for
nomination for the office of Representa
tive in the next Congress. Should Ibe
the choice of the Dqpiocracy of the Dis
trict I would appreciate the honor, other
wise I would neither expect nor desire
it. My rfpology for taking the liberty
of addressing you this letter is, that
owing to the unusually early date of the
convention this year and consequently
early county meetings while Congress is
in session, it will be out of my power to
see many of you personally, as I would
be glad to do, and as other candidates
are doing, •ven if the duties of the
trust with which you have honored me
should permit me to visit the District
at this time.
The triumph of the principles of De
mocracy are far more important to the
country and to each voter than are the
aspirations of any candidate. The suc
cess of these principles necessarily
dedends upon the integrity of the
party devoted to them. Such
integrity can only be preserved by
fair and just methods of organization,
whereby the choice of the masses of the
people can be fully and deliberately re
cord and respected
For some reason July the Bth, a date
five or six weeks earlier than has been
usual in this or other districts of the
State, has been fixed for the ooTe*Uw.
The conutv meetings to select dlegat
must therefore, of necessity, be held in
the midst of the busiest season of the
year, instead of the usual and easy time
of tho latter part of July or first of
August. Meetings in several of the
counties, including Catoosa, Murray,
Gordon and Polk have been called for
the first day of June.
M”. Waddell, chairman of the Execu
tive Committee of the District, in re
ply to some criticism of the press upon
its action in fixing so early a date, offers
the remarkable explanation that the
courts begin on the second Monday in
July, and the time was therefore fixed
prior to the date for the convenience of
the “lawyers, litigants, and witnesses,”
and while he admits the date to be
early, he tries to justify it with the
statement that “Col. Clements was at
one time nominated on the 4th of July.”
This statement was erroneous. I have
been twice nominated between the 25th
and the last of August, and never
earlier than the Btli of August. But
liow many “litigants and witnesses are
likely to attend to the convention?
There are perhaps two hundred times
as many voters of other classes in the
District as there are lawyers. The latter
live in the j;towns where the meetings
will be held; the former live mainly in
the country. In addition to the short
notice given, no more inconvenient
time for the honest, toiling farmers and
laborers of the country could have been
selected than this, the most pressing and
busy season of the year.
These people, upon whose prosperity
all other classes must depend, certainly
have quite us great an interest in the
nomination of a candidate for their
Representative in Congress ns have tho
eminently respectable but very small
class of citizens known as lawyers, whose
convenience has been so kindly con
sidered at the expense of the gTeat body
of voters, though Ido not believe the
Lawyers as a class have demanded or
desire it.
The farmers must either lose a day
from their pressing work, or leave the
selection of delegates to represent them
in tbe important convention to others,
but the day has been fixed. Meetings
must be held in some manner in all the
counties to select your delegates, whoso
action in convention assembled we must
all abide. I respectfully protest that
they should be selected by the whole
Democratic people of the respected
counties of the District, to represent
their will and to nominate their choice
for Congress, whoever that may be.
Therefore, for the good name cl the
party, the integrity of its organization,
and tho triumph of its principles, I
earnestly appeal to each and all of you
who may read this letter, to watch for
the appointments for county or primary
meetings, and to take one day Low om
fields and other labors and to attend
these important meetings, and urge
others to do so, and to see that the will
of the majority, which is the spirit of
Democracy, prevails.
Allow me, in conclusion, to say that
whatever of personal interests I have in
the contest I leave it in the hands of a
people who have honored me with their
confidence in the past, whom I have
endeavored to serve to the best of my
ability, whose sense of justice and fair
ness may always be trusted, and to
whose will none will bow with mare
reverence than—
Your obedient servant,
J. C. Clements.
Washington, D. C., May 19, 188 G.

A VOTER’S OPINION.
Mu. Editor : There are three candi
didates in the field for the nomination be
fore the Congressional convention that
will meet in Cartersville early in July. I
propose to give a few reasons why Major
J. A. Blance, of Folk county, should be
honored with the nomination :
Ist. Because he is mentally and intel
lectually eminently qualified to fill the
office with distinction. A close thinker
and eloquent orator. Major Blance can
sustain himself in discussion with anyone
on every subject.
2nd. Because he is a true and tried
Democrat and his convictions on all of
the issues before the country are firm for
the right.
3rd. Because he has a warm, enthu
siastic and solid home support.
4th. Because he is the first choice of
many counties, and the second choice of
the rest.
f Mi. Because he has never been an of
fice-seeker.
6th. Because he was a brave Confed
erate soldier, and lost an arm in the de
fense of his country.
7th. Because he is the best and most
available candidate whose nomination
would most surely lead to victory.
Bth. Because he is free to serve us and
uses no office as a stepping stone to the
position. Voter.
MR. CLEMENTS’ LETTER.
Hon. J. C. Clements has something to
say to the people of the Seventh in
anefchw column of this issue. His en
forced absence in Washington makes it
impossible to see liis constituents person
ally, and he takes this method of pre
senting his claims to them.
The letter is characteristic of the
man—calm, fair aud plain. Mr Clem
ents has made a good representative,
and has claims on the party that the
people will not easily forget. The
American is in favor of giving eaoh of
the candidates a fair chance, and will
then cordially support the one who re
ceives the nomination.

RELICS OF THE HARRISON FRESHET.
When the Harrison freshet occurred, in
1841, all the land in the vicinity of Jnli*
ette, on the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia railroad, was covered with sand.
In the flood the dwelling of J. A. Bowdoin
was leveled to the ground and the con
tents scattered. The waters subsided and
left the deposit of sand several feet deep.
The recent freshet carried this sand to the
swamps below Macon. A few days ago
Mr. Bowdoin was engaged in plowing
and having occasion to visit a portion of
his field that lie had not seen for some
time, he found it bare of the sand that had
laid on it for forty-five ) ears. He found
pots and kettles that belonged to his par
ents and had been scattered when the
Harrison freshet destroyed the dwelling
house. There were also wheel tracks in
the hard clay made by wagon wheels at
that time. —Dooly Vindicator.
A BRAVE GIRL.
At St. Louis, Mich., the other night
Adel Vliet, a drunken rowdy, broke into
the house of Samuel Fetters ’a crippled ex -
soldier. Fetters attempted to defend his
home, but was getting the worst of it when
his daughter, Nora, aged seventeen years,
shot Vliet in the side of the head. She
was placed under arrest to appear before
a justice this morning. Vliet died at 9
o’clock this morning.

THE TAT TLER TALKS.
w. J. N. AND THE BATTLE OF MA
NASSAS.
A Vivid Panoramic Representation o
That Heated Contest —The Beloved
“Boys in Gray,” Etc-, Etc.
Special Correspondence
One of the great attractions of W ash
ington is the panoramic representation of
the “Battle of Manassas,” or as it is called
by the Federate, the “Second Battle oi
Bull Run.” The panorama building is
located near the junction of Fifteenth and
D. Streets, between the Treasury building
and the W ashington monument.
I am told the building and painting
cost nearly one hundred and filty thous
and dollars, and it is, indeed, a masterly
work of art. One can scarcely realize, on
entering the building, that an actual bat
tle is not raging around him. I lie situ
ation of the armies is so natural and the
representation of the landscape is so per
fect as to almost compel the belief in its
reality.
Old soldiers and those familiar with
recent history will remember that the
Federal forces were under command of
Major-General Pope and that General R.
E. Lee was in command of the Southern
army. Many other generate of prom
inence on both sides took part in this fa
mous and stubborn struggle in which the
Southerners were victorious, and taught
“their friends —the enemy” of the North
that they would fight. Among the Feder
al commanders were Banks, McDowell,
Fitz-John Porter, Burnsides, King, Hatch,
Meade, Hooker, Sykes, Seymour and
Kearney ; and some of those on the Con
federate side were Longstreet, Stonewall
Jackson, S. D. Lee, liood, Wilcox, Fitz-
Ilugh Lee, Early, Anderson, Hill, J. E. B.
Stewart, and others whose names are now
household w’ords in the South.
The history of this battle is so fresh on
the memory of our country and its repre
sentation on the canvas is so thrilling and
realistic that I am tempted to dwell upon
some of its features as seen from the plat
form of the panorama. In describing the
appearance of the scene as one steps upon
the platform, I cannot do better than to
quote from a description that recently ap
peared iu the Washington Post: “Banish
all things present, and we are on Douglas
Heights, it is uo longer to-day ; it is the
30tli of August, 1803. Peace was a dream
of yesterday; this is war, aud we are in
he midst of it. On this reality the sun
looks down and smiles through rustling
trees, and casts long shadows on the yel
low fields. Away to the East the blue
hills rise aud fade into the tender sky. A
white village nestles nearer; nearer still
stands a frightened looking school-house ;
a homestead here and there, fruitful or
chards and peaceful meadows. r i iie vil
lage is Centreville, the hills are tire Bull
iiun range, the homesteads have historic
names, and the fruitful orchards and
peaceful meadows are obscured by smoke,
and strewn with Uie killed and wounded
of the battle of Manassas. Far aw ay, lines
of Union infantry make steady progress
with disciplined purpose in this direction
or that. Nearer, squads of Longstreet's
artillery come galloping into action.
Here, a group of gunners in gray, tense
and eager, load and fire. There, across a
placid brook, weed-grown and stony,
ring—or will ling in a moment —three
distinct reports that mark the duel of as
many Federal and Confederate officers.
Nines climb and nod over the shattered
rail fences that shelter Confederate gun
ners. A thin red stream trickles into a
brown pool that reliects a lazy cloud.
There is Lee—no chromo Lee, but the he
ro himself, erect and breathing—talking
to the unmistakable Longstreet, while
Wilcox sits on his horse superbly to the
right. Somewhere iu this wide horror —
if one’s glasses were strong enough—
could be found every gallant boy the
newspapers put into the list of killed aud
wounded at Manassas all those years ago.
A dead negro lies supinely by the ruins
of a supply wagon; a piteous hand with
a stain on it is lifted from a tangle of
briars in a fence corner. Staggering men,
bursting shells and maddened horses are
everywhere. To the left is the wild, gal
lant charge of Chapman’s and Buchan
an’s brigades upon Jackson’s lines en
trenched in the railroad cut that stretches
sharply across the field in the middle dis
tance.” rt
This beautiful pen-picture of the battle
scene is not overdrawn. It is almost im
possible to look on it and realize that it is
only the work oi an artist. The land
scape represented is a stretch of nearly
25 milts. The blue hills, the sun-set
glow, the hazy sky, the smoky atmos
phere, the woods with the first tints of
early autumn are all as natural as lite.
Some of the individual features of the pic
ture are very striking. For instance,
Stonewall Jackson sits on his “Little Sor
rell’’ in the background, with a glass to
his eyes, calmly surveying the fight. Lee
mid Longstreet and Wilcox are grouped
together eagerly intent on tin.* battle. In
a corner of the fence that branches off
from the railroad cut, where Jackson is
entrenched, stands a long, shambliug
looking Confederate, in citizen’s clothes
and wearing a white slouch hut, taking as
deliberate aim at the advancing enemy as
if he were shooting a squirrel in the hills
of North Georgia.
The expression of courage and daring
that rests on the face of Col. Chapman as
he rides among the wavering lederals
wlio are being mowed down by Long
street’s men is enough to axeite tlieadmira
tion and wonder of even a Confederate
boy. But the one feature of the scene
that brought tears to my eyes and set
every vein to tingling avas the sight of a
ragged Confederate who had been mortal
ly shot, and was leaning against the fence
in the foreground of the picture, The
blood was trickling from his side, and had
stained the rails of the fence. This was
life-blood. Tie expression of his face
showed that he was dying. But with the
true spirit of the soldier his head was up
and his lace was towards the enemy. The
heroic spirit that was soon to rise above
the shout and smoke of battle seemed
struggling to break through his face, leave
the old, tired, ragged body and shout in j
exultation as the ranks of the Federals
wavered and broke. lie was only a pri- j
vate, but a king never dies more grandly.
He may have been a rebel and a traitor in
the estimation of some northern copper
head, but in the estimation of all true
men, he was a noble soldier dying for
the triumph of a principle that he be
lieved to be right.
It would be impossible, in one letter,
to enumerate the interested features of the
panorama. One comes out of the build
ing with the feeling that time ln3 rolled
back a quarter of a century, and the
stirring events of s ; xty-tWo has been
re-enacted before his eyes.
Many members of the grand army of
the Republic objected to the picture and
tried to prevent its exhibition in the city,
claiming that it was unfair and unwise
io represent the disastrous defeat of the
Union army. But really there is nothing
in the picture for the Union army to be
ashamed of. No army could have fought
more bravely than they are represented
as fighting. They are inarching in the
lace of a storm of cannon balls ami bullets,
but they move like brave men, and fall
with their face to live front.
It is indeed a wonderful picture, and
well worth seeing.

matter is that the conversation that framed
our constitution lacked the courage of its
convictions and was bulldozed by the few
extreme Southern slave holding States—
South Carolina and Georgia especially.
It actually paltered with those convictions
and with the truth itself. Its convictions
—those at least of a great majority of its
delegates—were against not only the spread
but the very existence of slavery; yet we
hare seen what they unwillingly agreed
to in spite of those convictions, and they
were guilty moreover of the subterfuge of
using the terms ‘persons’ and ‘seryice or
labor,’ when they really meant‘slaves’ and
‘slavery.’” Georgia was opposed to rum
and slavery, the two elements which made
the Republican party possible.

Hiram Cameron, Furniture Dealer of

“For three years have tried every remedy
on the market for Stomach and Kidney
Disorders, but got no relief, until I used
Electric Bitters. Took five bottles and am
now cured, and think Electric Bitters the
Best Blood Purifier in the world.” Ma

Electric Bitters for an old standing Kid
ney affection and says: “Nothing has ever
done me so much good as Electric Bitters.’*

KIDNEY COMPJAI NT.
For over six years I have been a terrible
sufferer from a troublesome kidney com
plaint. for the relief of which 1 have spent
over $240 without benefit; the most noted
so-called remedies p oving failures. The
use of one single bottle of B. B. B. has
been marvelous, giving more relief than
all other treatment combined. It is a
quick cure, while others, if they cure at
all, are in the distant future.

Dr. L. A. Guild, of Atlanta who owns a
large nursery and vineyard, has a lad on
his place who was cuied of a stubborn
case of Scrofula, with one single bottle of
