District Election.
" •
The election in this district last Sat
urday for Justice of the Peace and two
constables passed off very quietly, but
the vote polled was larger than we ex
pected. The two candidates for Justice
and the three for constables were all
clever men and good citizens and the
race was a friendly one. Judge J. J.
Wallis was re elected Justice of the
Peaoe by 25 majority over his opponent,
Mr. T. L. Wrlls. Messrs. S. C. Hill and
-T. A_ Tolbert were elected constables,
Mr. Tolbert defeating Mr. J. E. Hogan
by i.> majority. The candidates sup'
plied all present with hickonuts dur

A Card to the News.
Editor Atlanta Daily News —A prom
inent preacher in this city, while at
tending the recent fair, heard a police
man at the fair grouuds say to a scoffer
of the churches: “Take the churches
out of the city and a thousand police
men could not keep it in order.”
When so great a power as a newspa
per has become at this day refuses to
make for law and order, and to co-ope
rate with the citizans <Tf a community
that gives it its support, looking to the
betterment of the condition of mankind,
it is time for the condensation and sup
pression of such power by the good cit
izeus of a community.
Apropos of these observations, there
is an afternoon sheet in this city that
seems never to lose an opportunity to
slur the churches and the .reachers,
and which seems to adopt for its choral
anthem the paraphrastic rendition o
the little game chorns given at the head
of this article.
The object of this article is not to re
form such a newspaper—the devil is
beyond hope of reform, as are also some
of his agents —but it means to set some
things given ont by another afternoon
paper, relative to (as made to appear by
said payer) a sensational disturbance on
last Monday evening at the Central
Baptist church.
The fact of the matter is, there was
no sens itiou whatever, Rev. Mr. Jack
son, the evangelist engaged by the
church to hold meetings two weeks,
earnest'y, kindly, yet without "backing
water,” reproved two young men for
talking and laughing in the face of a
good deacon of the church,and at a
lady who had been called upon to pray
for them. This matter, happily, has
been settled. The paper referred to,
when Mr. Jackaon went to see them,
agreed to make all corrections desired
by him. he feaviug a written correction
with them, signed by a committee of
the church members. They will say
they puDlished what was given them.
They tell what the reporter told when
he agreed with Mr. Jackson not to make
as-nsation of the motterou the morn
ing of the interview. They *,hashed”
the communication given them, aud in
their publication of Wednesday after
noon they ran, instead of the "cat,’
portion of the correction, an uudercur
reuent of sobering and of slander, which
was brazen in its impudence and clear
ly in violation of the agreed upon pub
lication.
The reporter agreed, first of all not
to publish anything regarding a dis
turbance and reproof of last week; in
despite, this appeared glaringly. Mr.
Jackson did not stand for fifteen min
utes before the young couple discours
ing on good behavior, as the yonng
couple had left the house; in fact, two
couples left within a few minutes of
each other.
The reporter agreed, as stated, that
he would not publish a sensational ar
ticle, but would merely take Mr. Jack
son’s family group, publish a cut of
that and a history of bis evangelistic
work as given him by Rev J. W. Ba'ts,
who was present at the interview and
who has known Mr. Jackson from his
early days. Snob an agreement, of
course, ruled out the cartoon, and was
virtually au agreement not to cartoon
him. The public knows, from observa
tion, bow the agreement was violated.
The agreement was for a good cut,
backed by the claim that they had a
good artist. It stands to reason, then,
that it must have been a cartoon, or
else the claim has no occult substantia
tion.
The members of the Central Baptist
church wish it distinctly understood
that there is not now, was not, on ac
count os the sensational (?) rebako, nor
never has been a division of the mem
bers on Mr. Jackson’s course, and the
artiole referred to shews that the re
porter had his interview with others
than Mr. Jackson himself.
They £ish it further understood that
no one has threatened to withdraw
from the membership on account of the
division and dissension referred to. On
the other hand, Mr. Jackson’s labor, as
in the summer past, when over forty
were added to this churoh, is bearing
fruit in additions to the church.
Lest these false, slanderous aud mali
cious things get out among credulous
people, I wish to make the correction
above, aud stand seady to baok it up.
I make it in behalf of the membership
of the church; iu behalf of the people
who, without a pastor, are trying, until
one is sent them from the Lord, to
maintain a morally pure, just and up
right living, and are “standing fast in
the liberty wherewith Christ hath made
them free.” They mean to maintain
that liberty iu spite of the leeches that
seek to fasten upon morality and Chris
tianity aud suck it dry of character
and reputation. They feel now the foil
import of that beatitude. “Blessed are
yc when men shall revile and perse
cute you, aud shall say all manner of
evil against yon.” O. T. Monchief.
ROBBED THE GRAVE.
A startling incident of which Mr,
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the
subject, is narrated by him as follows:
“I was in a most dreadful condition.
My skin win almost yellow, eye' 1 sun
ken, tongue coated, pain continually
in back and sides, no appetite—gradual
ly growing weaker day by day. Three
physicians bad given me up. Fortu
uately, a friend advised trying * ‘Elec
tric Bitters, ’ ’ and to my great joy aud
surprise, the first bottle made a decided
improvement. I continued their use
for three weeks, and am now a well
man. I know they saved my life, and
robbed the grave of another victim,”
No one should fail to try them. Only
