* /fiassiiig of resolutions endors
evident Clevehmd and his ad
-hinistration, especially his financial
policy.
The following are the resolutions
offered and passed by the meeting:
Resolved, That we the Democrats
of Coffee county assembled in mass
meeting at the courthouse. Douglas,
Ga., do endorse without inodilie.ation
theadtninis.ration of Grover Cleveland.
especially the firm position lie has
maintained in favor of a sound curren
cy and his earnest efforts to hold un
tarnished the public credit of our
nation.
That we believe the free coinage of
silver at the ratio of K> to 1 a false
policy and do emphatically denounce
it as a principle dangerous to be in
culcated in the Stale or National plat
forms.
That we deem it too early to hold a
primary in June, believing a long
Campaign to he detrinu ntal *o the in
terest of our people, and, therefore, we
suggest that a primary for all the
county officers, Representative and
Senator from the sth senatorial dis
trict he called for tho 4th Saturday in
July in which the democrats only he
allowed to p irtieipate.
We believe that an early expression
of. a choice for United States Senator
by the people can only sow discord in
the ranks of the democratic party and
is in no wise conducive to its interest;
and we recommend that a ballot be
provided for such expression at the
October elections.
That it is with special pride we
hold a'oft the glorious record of our
noble representative, Henry G. Turner
as exemplary in the highest degree, a
model by which all men and all na
tions might profit.
Anew executive committee was
elected of the following
gentlemen : li. Peterson, .1. W. Greer,
J, 'V. Quincey, Jell' Kirkland, G. W-
Julian, Joe Bailey’, F. L. Sweat, Joe
McDonald, Frank Grillis, Ben F Sum
merlin. 11. 1.. Paulk. T. G. Hilliard,
0. G. Smith. J. J. Joweis, Wm, Min
ehev. John II Peterson, W. W. South
erland, and Leonard Byrd.
These are all active, energetic and
sound democrats and it is safe to pre
diet that democracy will hold her
own and overcome opposition under
their leadership.
The following were elected as del
egates to the State convention :
F. Willis Dart, J. M. Denton, W. W.
McDonal, J. W. Greer, W. W. Terrell,
J. M. J shley, John Fus'ell, John Mc-
Lean, John Burns, Jt If Kirkland, Sam
Phillips, T. J. Hilliard. M. Kiikland,
Jesse Lott, Elias Lott, A. A. McLean,
T. B. Marshall, anil R. K. Perkins.
Delegates were also chosen to repre
sant the\>unty at the Congressional
convention.
The ring of Vhe meeting was clear
and strong ami its forebodings are
ominous to the enemies of democracy.
The Voice
The birds of prey have a harsh, dis
cordant note. The crow, a scavenger
and a bird of sly and thievish propen
sities, can only caw raspingly.
It is the. birds of gentle habits that
have melodious song ; and never from
such as a bird of prey will yon hear a
j liquid trill or even a sweet "ter-weet.”
Those people who live lives of vio
lence, whether of deed or of tern her
lyso everything of a softer, sweeteX,
or harmonious nature. liven the'
voice itself will change as one gives
j way more and more to brutal instincts.
Thus it is that the voice may often
; be taken as an index of elm:actor,
even when the possessor is acting
jin a manner most reserved. Ami one
! of harsh and brutal instincts mav bo
| afh'ctiug his oiliest and his sweetest.
' yet there is a note in his voice that
f'vay betray him.
