THE ARBUS. . J. HAR.nom ft J.U. Me-DONALD, Editors ai|d Publishers. Entered at the Postoffivt atfJackson a* second clast mail mutter. f ÜBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY. lucksou, t.a., October IS, 1894. ONE DOLLAR PER ANNUM. Sensible people never fall out about politics nor religion, iu each case every man is guaranteed bis conscientious con* vietions and no other man has any right to use anything but reason on him. When his reason fails it is better to ‘‘just let him go his own opportunity for he will neither take vice or exitude.” The recent election results have shown that it won’t do for democrats to fall asleep and let the “pops” get the inside track on us. If every democrat will just come out on November (ith and cast a a yote for democracy, the “pops” will be buried so deep that you couldn’t res -urrect them-in 100 years. Come out. ■ m ■ Few people know that we are as much indebted to the Arabians for our areni- Jtecture as we are for our system of nota tion. At every church wedding or festi val adorned with flowers, we haye an arch or something greatly resembling a Moorish gateway, which probably reached its culmination in art in the twelvtli or fifteenth century. As usual when our Macon friends get right down to business, they are sure to make a success of the Dixie Interstate Fair. Advices received from the secretary’s office say that the exhibits in all the departments and the special attractions will be better than have ever been known -in the state of Georg a. The atten dance of many thousands of people is the only thing that gives the mi n agers any concern. The problem how seems to be to care for the peo pie and the secretary hrs found it necessary to advertise in the local f>apers for all persons who are wil ing to take visitors during the lair, io send their names to his cities. Jt wpuld sefem, therefore, that, while every inducement is being offered to crowd the city with visitors, no clToit will be spared to make them comfortable while there. To our farmers we would sav that if they wouid like 4 .0 see what their neigh bors are doing in the way ol produc ing from Georgia soil let them go to Macon any time between October 23rd and November Sth and they will find enough to astonish tnem in that line, Many people in our own county are sending entries in the several departments and this is assurance that considerable interest is being taken in this section in the coming Dixie Interstate Fair. Be sides field crops, in which the pre miums are very liberal, the Georgia farmer is given an opportunity to see what he con do in the way of stock raising The premium offered in this department are exceedingly liberal. The following specimens taken at ramdom from the premium list will show what is being done in this line: Best Stgllion, 3 years old and over, and three of his colts—first premium, $25 00; second premium sls 00. Best Brood Mare and Suckling Colt—first premium, $2000; second premium SIOOO, Best Mare, 3 years old and over first premium sls 00, second pre mi urn SIO.OO. The individual making the lar gest and best display of products grown or produced by him or her, or tinder his or her direction S2OO. The individual making the second display as above, $l5O ; The individual making the third best display as above ) SIOO. Best display of Garden Vegeta bles grown and exhibited by one person—first premium $25 00; sec ond premium $.1500 • But while the farmer is being in structed he will also be entertained. The list of special attractions pre pared for the Dixie Interstate Fair i6 along one. We mention the cel ebrated Midway Plaisance which is itself worth a trip to Macon. At the recent St. Louis Fair, which closed last week # the attendants on the Midway Plaisance in cne day was 95,000 people. This gives some idea of the popularity of this great attraction and the wonderful hold it has on the people, * The enterprise shown by the man agers of Dixie Interstate Fair in se curing this great attraction is only in keeping with the entire manage ment of this whole exposition. But not content with that, they have secured at an enormous ex pense, Pain’s celebrated pyrotech nic and spectular production known as the ‘ Last Days of Pompeii.” This production will he given for six nights during the fair and will &f --loid the people last opportunity they will probably have in some time to see it. In addition to the Fall of Pompeii and other brilliant fire works thire will be produced from time to time portraits in fire of many of the distinguished per sonagee of the day. Close neighbors as we are to Macon, with cheap railroad fares furnished we can af ford to look in ou our Macon friends of en during a continuance of the fair and the time can be profitably and pleasantly spent The hospU tatity of Macon is proverbial and ahe has never tailed in this partic ular. Our people will give her an earnest support and we know that tbsre will he a gathering there such *• will make us glad to see. DEMOCRATS! COME OUT! On November 6th the election for con gressman takes place, and it behooves every aimon pure democrat in the state of Georgia to coine out and vote. The populists are turning heaven and earth in their endeavors to reduce the l irge majorities which the democrats of Geor gia have been enjoying Tor the past twenty-five years, and it doesn’t require the services of a microscope to see how well they are succeeding in their inten tions. From a majority of 80,000 yotes the populists have deluded 50,000 of the voters in the past two years, and if something is not done to counteract this ruinous work it will not he many years before Georgia will find herself scourged by the baus of populism with the at tendant honors and fanatical policies- For the past two years the democrats of Georgia have been reveling over the majorities which have been showered upon the democrats ib this graud old state; but the time has come when this reveling has been changed into signs ol disappointment at the reduced majori ty which was given our state house offi cers at the elections. And the cause of it all is inactivity of democrats to come out and vote for demociacy. The “pops” are stirring and they will work the colored vote for all ’tis worth. There are no sluggards in their ranks and ns it is chiefly composed of office seekers who have nothing else to do but spend their time in gallivanting around for the pur pose of securing yotes, it can be readily surmised how much harm can be done democracy by the uuited efforts of this wandering band of miscreants. The akous is not posing as \ “calam ity howler” nor is it our purpose to al ways select the dark side of a subject to work on, but appearances are of such a nature as to incite uneasiness, and un rest on the pait of every loyal democrat who lives above the scheming fallacies of pouulisiu, and teuders his services and vote for the betterment—and not ruin— of mankind. Come out on November 6th and help snow uuder the scheming politicians who are spending their time aud services in endeavoring to inaugurate polioies which if enacted iuto law would bank rupt our government and make paupers of the 60,000,000 inhabitants of the United States who are now thriving and prosperous under the guiding hand of democracy. Come out, yote, then go home and rest easy, for then, and not till then, will you have done your full duty. Remember November 6tb, aud come out and vote the straight democratic ticket. The strength of democracy will be tried on this day and it behooves every democrat who loyes his country and the principles which are right to come out and help swell the majority.
