DOUGLAS BKEEZE. Official Organ of Coffee County \(lreri< tlux Kates Reasonable. Rl'll UUPTIftX fl A YEA K, IV ADVANCE PI >" LISHEI) WEEKLY. Entered at (lie Postofficc at Douglas Gh. as see nd-elass mail matter. FRIDAY, JANUARYJtI. 181)0. R itb/ishera' Notice. Some of the patrons of the Breeze who are behind with their accounts are laboring under the impression that said accounts are payable to the old management. The undersigned wishes to say to all that such is not the case—that all accounts due the Breeze are due the new management. Respectfully, Parker A Guekr. The Congressional Sit nation. The Leader of last week contains an editorial in which it says: ‘ In tho event that W. G. Brantly enters the race, he will have a walk over so far as Coffee county is concerned, and we have the host authority for believ ing that every county in Uie Bruns wick judicial circuit will he in line when the announcement is made.” This is a sweeping statement that our worthy contemporary has made, and if one consider that lie has ' host authority for believing” it, some will besurprie'd at the situation, unless his syllogism have been falsely con cluded from unstable premises. In regard to the other counties of Uni Brunswick judicial circuit, wo have not.the “best authority” lor re filling the statement made by the eel itor of the Leader—rthat is, wc have not tjic statement of the people them selves, the authority we consider the best—ami, ther fore, wo cannot say with so much certainty Unit they will not all‘‘fall in line” with Mr. Brant ley's candidacy. We suspect that our authority—the press—is somewhat ns authentic as any that is accessible just now, and we have not been led any manner of means to the conclu sion of the esteemed editor aforesaid. A lur 001ß \VU CIUINI lO have even hotter testimony for wlnil we shall assert in regard to the con gressional feeling, and if we may use the phraseology of one among the many we have interviewed, we should say that the sentiment in Codec conn ty is "wc arc willing to let good enough alone.” Mr. Turnci seems to he plca.-ing the majority of the people of Codec well enough, and they are not disposed to exchange him for any body just yet. awhile. Now. ttK Breeze does not expect to make a light against Mr. Brantley in view of Lis anticipated candidacy: there is no tight to make. Mr. Brant ley is a gentleman of the old school type, he is a man of the highest character, and his fitness for any posi tion of trust and honor cannot be de nied. We could not say a single thing against him even if we had any disposition lik. do so; but for those same reasons there can nothing be said aga 11st Mr. Turner, mid for many reasons in addition to these, we are obliged by our sense of jinftiee and honesty of purpose to support him in the race for congress from this district. As yet. we are of the opinion that Mr. Braude, will not run for congress against Mr. Turner. Ideal statesman ship is that which prompts a man to serve bis countiy when he is needed and called to its service and to with hold his services when there is good reas m to believe that his people do not need him and are as well repre sented as he himself could do it. Other tliate tli* is not true statesman ship. and smacks of political selfish ness. We believe that Mr. Brantley is jiessossed of the elements of true statesmanship. Our personal knowl edge of him asserts a high tvpo of 1 manhood, and his public career gra-1 eiouslj substantiates that personal knowledge. Mr. Brantley is in full cognk mce of Mr. Turner’s accept ance with his constituents, the people of the state, ayd, indeed, of his general favor throughout the entire country- He doubtless realizes with the major ity of the people that it would be a loss to the district ami almost a calam ity to the democratic party for Mr. Turner to be dropped out of congress j just at this time, lie knows that Mi. ' Turner’s vast knowledge and long e\ pcrience gives him advantage ovei any other man in congress; that hoi is the lbau of the democratic party , whom the republicans dear and yt t | respect, and whom the democrats . trust, . love and revere. Ho knows | that the people of the district are fully ; alive to thes.''facts, and that nothing luit a politic tl campaign of tho most [radical methods would suffice to per il nrt this opinion, even among tho 1 most skeptical, and to idled any change'in the suffrage that has been ! s.o freely bestowed to keep this great man a representative of his people. In the event of a contest with Mr. Turner, Mr. Brantley would have but one pica to make to the people—the plea of the politician : "my opponent I holds an office and I want it.” This j is not like Mr. Brantley and we deem that he will prefer to bide his time 1 and make the race on a broad ground !of patriotism. -Mr. Brantley knows | that Mr. Turner will likely follow the | precedent set hr Mr. Bin it, and retire from congrets after his next term (he will then have served ten terms, us did Mr. Blunt); that he himself, (Brantley) next to Mr. Turner, is by far the most favored man in the dis trict and will certainly follow him upon his retirement; that by waiting he has everything to gain, while by making the race now lie faces a prob able defeat that will certainly curb his opportunities for the future. •.Vo do not believe that Mr. Brantley would have a ‘‘walk over” in Coffee county, neither do we lliink that Mr. Turin r would : it is likely that the contest in this county would he a very close one, -and a hectic demagogue would chuckle in his soul at opportu nities even as flattering as those of fered Mr. Brantley ; but we believe the broad minded, big hearted young solicitor to he above all such, and we look for him generously to offer up his chances for a year or two longer, and lend iiis efforts to return Mr. Turner to Congress. There is a lady who is so particular about her daughters morals that she allows her to play only on an upright piano.—lfawkinsville Dispatch. This is downright prudish. The Doctor’s Discovery, DR.
