TUr. MASS MEET/VG OX TUESDAY.
Vfe attended the so-called in.taa meet
ing at the court house on Tuesday laat as
a silent spectator. We suppose that no
man will claim that the meeting was in
anyway a reflection of the sentiment of
Bartow county on the gubernatorial
question. As far as that goes the meet
ng wa-i a ridiculous farce enacted amid
the utmost disorder. It was a “roaring
farce’’ during which numbers of the ac
tors were upon the floor clamoring to say
their piece and to display their declama
tion. A ?ote was taken upon the choice
of the meeting for a candidate for gov
ernor. The result was 70 for Boynton
and 25 for Bacon and nobody voted for
anybody el**, though we met on that da)’
in town many who are In favor of Henry
D. McDaniel, whom we hive known
front boyhood • • whose iruvd .md po
litii’.-il tn nhood i ithout hie,wish.
Ihc meeting . r*ally i.inecessary
ex. cpi u may r it would look a 1 it
ft* beru r for “ iry” fh r the “cut
and diied’’ programme prepared inad
vaucc ! a few gentlemen, Sell Id have
tic semblance -<f popular endorsement
before being reported .it headquarters as
the sentiment of Bartow county on the
gubernatorial question. It is the first
instance of the kind we have known
where printed tickets were on hand to
subserve the purpose of a political junta
that had previously done ali that was
necessary to be done by the mass meet
ing of Tuesday. Theretore, the meeting
does not express the popular sentiment of
Bartow county, bur simply that of sev
enty voters who happened to be present
and voted for Boynton. That is all and
no more. As to the county, the whole
thing was merely a farce, its plots and
counter plots forming an inharmonious
whole.
It is useless to attempt to disguise the
fact that there is great dissatisfaction
with the proceedings of Tuesday. In
fact the voters of Bartow have little faith
in these political meetings in reflecting
the popular sentiment of the county.
They are now more than ever disgusted
with them. The work of Tuesday will
largely swell the independent vote of the
county if the expressions of numbers of
our best citizens heretofore organized
may be relied upon, and we do not doubt
their earnest words concemingthe affair.
Upon the whole, the meeting will have
Its goo! effect in giving courage to good
men to threw off the yoke of partisan or
ling tyranny.
7 MAXES, BROTHER LAMAR.
In a strong editorial the Columbus
Enquirer urges the people of the state to
select a straight-out democrat for govern
or, and makes the strong point that Fel
ton and Speer would do quite as well as
Bqynton as regards democracy, to which
the Macon Telegraph tersely replies:
If there is anything in the record of Dr. Felton
ns damaging to his democracy as the Boynton-
Bullock letters, it has not been published.
That is true; and if there had been
anything derogatory to Dr. Felton’s
character to publish you may te sure it
would have come to light, for the seventh
district politicians have combed his re
cord with a very fine tooth ccflbb as it
were, with no result, except to whiten
and exalt his character, which effort on
their part always threw their own soiled
reputations into a very doubtful shade.
When Georgia wag under the rod. Dr.
Felton stood by her. He was not made
a chief justice or given any other place,
nor did he ask Bullock to make him a
judge or a solicitor. More than that, he
was in a prominent office for six years,
when every word he uttere'J was distort
ed by the consummate tricksters to
mean something which it clearly did not
mean; yet, he left the office without a
stain on his record, and with clean, honest
hands. Justice is sometimes tardy, but
it will come at last.
We thank thee, Brother Lamar, for an
expression so faithful to truth in behalf
of a man whose garments have not the
smell of th'3 Bullock democracy, nor car
ries certificate of good character from such
an infamous political reprobate, as the
late J. Clarke Svayze, who fomented a
little hell of hi own in Georgia.
KINDLY WORDS FROM FRIKXDS.
The editor of I'uk Frke Press feels
grateful for the reception of a number of
letters of sympathy and condolence from
friends in different parts of the state.
He also appreciates the kind words of his
brethren of the p*ess. Those have come
to him like gleams of light amid the
gloom and darkness of sorrow. There is
no such friendship as that which we
meet in distress. We are more than ever
firm in the belief that the human heart is
not so evil disposed as some claim it to
be. There is an impulse of sympathy
for our fellow-man in distress that will
at some time or in some way express it
self either in action or in words, howev
er inverse the heart may be.
The kindly words of sympathy that
have come to us in our late sad bereave
ment have fallen upon the heart like the
dews of heaven, to revive it. They have
reached us as messengers of friendship to
cheer us and to fortify us with hope and
courage to live hopefully to cherish in
life the memory of a loved aid loving
daughter whose earthly existence was a
sweet comiort to a father’s sorrowful
heart. The words of sympathy are
treasured in our heart as gems of ihe
purest frien (ship. We lay them away
as memory's sweetest treasures.

LEAR.V TO DO SOMETHISG WELL.
It would be a very good thing if some
one would set the fashion in this country
of learning to do whatever is undertaken
thoroughly and well. It is a grand defect
of American education, in all grades of
society, that the student is content with
a mere smattering of knowledge and sel
dom masters his subject. In this respect
we might pattern after the clever Aus
trian women with advantage. In her
charming little book, entitled “European
Breezes,’’ Marie J. Pittman says of them
that there are no women in the world
capable of doing so many things, and
doing them well, no matter what they
may be called upon to do, from cutting a
dress to making a salad. They are al
ways ready, she says of them Anally,
that no matter what titles or fortunes
they inherit, the girls are obliged to learn
whatever they undertake thoroughly,
and they must be good practical cooks,
good linguists and, if they have a taste
for accomplishments, good musicians and
painters.
Just here American girls fail. They
learn something about many branches,
but master nothing. They could not
manage a kitchen or cook and serve a
dinner; they could not, if thrown on
their own resources, make their music or
painting or French a means of earning a
livelihood. This is a erions mistake.
Every girl, as well as boy, should learn
iu understand and do Mime one or more
thing cleverly, that there may be relied
upon as a means of support in a time of
need. The cities are full of half-starved
women who might earn a comfortable
and honest living if only they knew how
to do some one thing well.
DEATH OF REV. J. HARDIX GEORGE.
We copy the following paragraph from
the Albany News, of ihe 3rd inst.:
We learn from the Atlauta Constitution that
the Rev. J. Hardin George, who was the first
rector of the Episcopal church of Albany, died
at his home m Marietta on Wednesday last.
During his rectorship here St Paul’s church was
erected and consecrated nearly twenty-eight
years ago. We will endeavor to get a more de
tailed account of his life and services here for
publication.
A9 Mr. George had been a resident of
Marietta for a number of years, we
thought strange that the Journal should
only give a mere brief mention of the
good old man’s death, having lived his
four score years, the most of his life hav
ing been spent in the ministry. We
knew the deceased well. He resided in
LaGrange for several years as the Epis
copal minister at that place. His life
was a pure one and his ministry was
earnest and sincere in the cause of his
Master.
We hope some one will furnish a “de
tailed account of his life and services’’
iu Albany. We shall take great pleas
ure in the publication of the same in
The Free Press. Mr. George was too
good a man and too faithful a minister to
pass away at the end of a long and useful
life and nothing more than a brief notice
made of his demise.
THE BATTLE OF CHICAMAUGA.
We have seldom read a more entertain
ing article than that of Mr. Frank Burr,
which came out first in the Philadelphia
Times, afterwards in the Atlanta Cvnsti
tutton. In connection therewith we de
sire to cull attention to the part acted in
that great battle by Lieut-Gen. James
Longstreet, the present marshal of Geor
gia. Gen. Lee sent his trusted soldier to
win that fight, and he proved worthy of
the trust. If Georgians had been tol lat
that time that passion and political strife
could ever have induced them to decry
that valor, and brand that noble name
with vile epithets, because he differed
with bourbon democracy, they would
have scouted the idea, and pronounced
the defliers and slanderers as both knaves
and traitors.
For onr part we do not intend ever
again to lose sight of patriotism no mat
ter where it is found, and we are glad to
know that the prominent journals of the
country can at last give us a little variety
in the history of heroes. We have heard
nothing for so long, but “Colquitt’s sa
lient” and Gordon’s god-like excellence,
that we read Burr’s description with as
much relish as a hungry man would turn
from stale syllabub to a decent dish of
generous substantial food.
We really felt a deep sympathy for
Dr. Lelaud as the chairman of Tuesday’s
mass meeting. Were he not one of the
coolest men in the world and always
ready to turn every circumstance into
something humorous, he would have
lost his equanimity. But, the doctor
was firm and tair amid the roar of elocu
tion and parliamentary tactics. The
doctor seemed to us that he was out of
his ranche, out. of his range, so to speak.
He seemed to enjoy the fun and added
much to the merriment of the occasion.
If a man can control a meeting of ninety
live men as vociferous as a few of those
were, he can very well manage a host of
orderly debaters.
The total eclipse of the sun on the 6th
of May next will last six minutes and no
longer one will probably occur within
the next one hundred years. It will be
partially visible in many places, but few
will see it in its entirety, as its path lies
almost directly through the ocean, touch
ing land nowhere but at a little island in
the South Pacific, called the “Caroline
Island,” which is out of the track of any
established commerce or travel. The
French government has determined to
send an expedition to that island and it is
probable a grand international gathering
of astronomers will meet there to take
part in the scientific quest.
The Constitution’s campaign table gives
the following figures as to how the con
vention will stand next Tuesday : Boyn
ton 41, Bacon 103V£, McDaniel 22}£,
Cook 16, doubtful 39, with seven coun
ties to hear from. The Macon Telegraph ,
same date puts it: Boyton 95, Bacon 105,
Simmons 6, Mclntyre 12, Cook 14, Mc-
Daniel 20, Crawford 12, Nicholls 2,
Reese 6, Bacon, second choice 55, Boyn
ton second choice 25, doubtful 22.

TUteSDAY’B MEETING.
What an “Independent” Regard • the
Cause af Bacon’s Defeat.
To the Editor of ihe Fret Press:
The action of the county convention
Tuesday has created much surprise and
some feeling. Maj. Baeon Hs a good
man, and has a strong following in Bar
tow, but he has some advocates that
were so unpopular that the people pre
ferred to humiliate these unpopular ad
vocates at all hazards, no matter who
suffered. It is one plain case, when a
man’s friends bore him down to defeat;
and in this county it was not a strife be
tween Boynten and Bacon, but a local
contest between two factions that are ir
reconcilable. Several good old farmers
told the writer, that fhey had no objec
tion to Bacon, but they were sick ot be
ing bossed by people they did not like,
and it was high time to give these extra
officious would-be bosses a clever re
buke.
The writer is sorry, so good a man as
Maj. Bacon, had to suffer for the unpop
ularity of his advocates, but we hope the
time is coming when a candidate can be
selected by fair means, and not be in
jured by bad management as the Bacon
canvass was crippled in such an intelli
gent county as Bartow has shown her
self to be tor many years. For the rea
son that conventions do not represent
the people, we quit them some years ago
but we are glad that certain zealots who
joined their ranks lately to get position,
have had a genteel setting down upon.
Boynton may thank his stars that these
unpopular zealots did not espouse his
cause, because he would have had a hard
road to travel if they had handicapped
his canvass as they did Bacon’s.
Let us hope that Maj. Bacon, if suc
cessful, (as we think lie will be,) will
steer clear of such heavy weights as they
have found themselves to be. The Tele
graph and Messenger fidves him a hand
some majority in its columns of Wed
nesday, and as ail independent the wri
ter gives him the assurance that Bartow
county don’t follow conventions as a
rule, and the horny-handed sons of toil
are as independent as they are unpur
chasable. Independent.

THE SUN.
73 NEW YORK, !883.
More people have read the sun
during the year just now passing than ever
before since it was first printed. Noother news
paper published on this side of the earth has
been bought and read in any year by so many
men and women.
We are credibly informed that people buy,
read and like The Smn for the following rea
sons, among others:
Because its news columns present in attractive
form and with the greatest possible accuracy
whatever has interest for humankind; the events
the deeds and misdeeds, the wisdom, the philos
ophp, the notable folly, the solid sense, the im
proving nonsense—alt the news of the busiest
world at present revolving in space.
Because people have learned that in its re
marks concerning persons and affairs The Sun
makes a practice of telling them the exact truth
to the best of its ability three hundred and sixty
five days in the year, before election as well as
after, about the whales as well as about the small
fish, in the face of dissent as plainly and fear
lessly as when supported by general approval.
The Sun has.absolutely no purposes to serve,
save the information of its readers and the fur
therance of the common good.
Because it is everybody’s newspaper. No
man is so numble that The Sun is indifferent to
his welfare and his rights. No man, no associa
tion of men, is nowertul enough to be exempt
from the strict application of its principles of
right and wrong.
Because in politics it has fought for a dozen
years, without intermission and sometimes al
most alone among newspapers, the light that lias
resulted in the recent overwhelming popular
verdict against Robesonism and for honest gov
ernment. No matter wliat party is in power,
The Sun stands and will continue to stand like a
rock for the interests of the people against the
ambition of bosses, the encroachments of mo
nopolists, and the dishonest schemes of pablic
robbers.
All this is what we are told almost daily by
our friends. One man holds that The Sun is the
best religious newspaper ever published, be
cause its Christianity is undiluted with cant.
Another holds that it is best republican newspa
per published, because it has already whipped
half of the rascals out of that party, and is pro
ceeding against the other half with undiminish
ed vigor. A third believes it to be the best mag
azine of general literature in existence, beenuse
its readers miss nothing worthy of notice that is
current in the world of thought. So every
friend of The Sun discovers one of its many
sides that appeals with particular force to his
individual liking.
If you already know The Sun, you will ob
serve that in 1883 it is a little better than ever
before, If youd* not already know The Sun,
you will find it to be a mirror of all huniah ac
tivity, a storehouse of the choicest products of
common sense and imagination, a mainstay for
the cause of honest government, a sentinel for
genuine Jeffersonian democracy, a scourge for
wickedness of e?ery species, and an uncommon
ly good investmeut for the comiug year.

The Chronicle and Constitutionalist is
rapidly approaching the completion of ti c first
century of existence. The paper we publish is
essentially a type of modern progress, which
demonstrates that this established journal has
become better and stronger as it increases in
years. '1 lie men who have, from one generation
to another, worked upon it, and helped to make
it a power in the land, submit, and will submit,
to the common lot of humanity and pass away
from earth and its struggles, but the result of
their labor remains, and will continue to re
main. The workmen die, but the work goes on.
The Chronicle of to day is an improvement
upon the Chronicle of the past. The Chroni
cle of the future will he improved upon the
Chronicle of to-day. The world moves, and
the the paper moves with it. Wonderful inven
tions, in the last half century, given an impetus
to all material things, anjl the press has shared
in the advantages of great discoveries, just as it
has also stimulated them. The Chronicle has
spared no pains or expense to furnish the public
with the news of the day from all parts of the
world, and it will take pleasure and pride in
perfecting this service from time to time. The
Chronicle has endeavored to take high ami no
ble views of public policy, aud to sustain all
goon aud just causes.
The Chronicle has essayed to encourage vir
tue and make the lot or man and woman all the
brighter and better lor the common weal. The
Chronicle strives to be a newspaper in the best
sense of the term, and to advance, in that mis
sion, the interests of all the people. The con
ductors of the paper cannot ami do not expect to
please everybody. In all human affairs, mis
takes of judgement will occur and contests of.
opinion will arise. We will, however, mightily
trive to commit as few errors as possible and to
suter such conflicts as cannot bo avoided with a
proper spirit.
The CitRONiCLE enters the new year with ex
ceptional advantages. Its daily edition is a
well iilied eight-page paper. Its second edi
tion, for the evening mails, is eight pages,
with the afternoon markets and telegraphic re
ports. It takes the place of the tri-weekly edi
tion. Its mammoth weekly paper will compare
with the country. Into this edition the choicest
and creamiest news of the week is collected, and
upon its lap the best aud freshest editorial and
miscellaneous matter rrem the dally is potired.
Its market reports, covering nearly one page,
will be an especial feature, prepared each week
for ilie country reader.
Its news service will be sustained by trained
and scholarly correspondents in the three
capitals—Atlanta, Columbia and Washington—
wake it will strive to have a news representa
tive in every neighboring town.
The mail facilities of this paper are now su-
per . Four daily trainee distribute its editions
in South Carolina and three in Georgia. It
rea dies all the principal points in South Caroli
na early on the day of publication—reaching
Columbia at 11 a. m. The fast mail schedule of
the Georgia Railroad lands the Chronicle and
Constitutionalist in all towns along the line
early iu the forenoon, while its issue is unfolded
in Atlanta and Athens by noon each (lay.
