In 18(10, the State was re-districted.
Habersham. Franklin and Ilart composing
the Thirty-first Senatorial District. At
the first election, Col. .John 11. Patrick,
of Franklin, was elected to serve for two
years. Dying. J. 11. Henson, of Hart,
was elected to till his unexpired term for
18(12. During that year, an arrangement
was made between the Counties to rotate.
Sidney Harr, of Habersham, was then
elected for tw o years—serving for 18(1.1 and
18(14. Mnj. .1. M. Freeman was then
elected from Franklin, and served for the
years 1805 and 1800—up to *• Reconstruc

Under the Constitution of 1808. it was
provided that at the Hrst election, the
"Odd ” Districts should have two years,
or half term; and the " Even " Districts
four years. Ours being an odd District —

if Franklin's ramli-
supported i| that canvass that at
r the ensuing election Franklin would stand
to Habersham. In the mean time Hart ad
vanced her claim, run a candidate and he
was elected hy a majority of about three
votes in the Senatorial District.
Now mark the proposition and the asser
tion w e here make, that Hart county did
run a candidate and elected him over the
head of the first rotation candidate ever
run in this Senatorial District. They de
feated the rotation system m its incipiency
by defeating the lirst candidate ever olfered
oil that platform, and by so doing they
cheated themselves as well ns Franklin out
.of the Senatorship. And now here comes
"•Mlurt” pleading rotation, whoever would
have thought of stick mi idea? The rota
tion system w as only intended for one can

Franklin and Habersham asked to take a
part? No. these upper counties were ig
nored on that occasion, hut we were asked
to vote, elect and thereby stnfld by the
caucus meetings in Hart, the very county
which bolted and elected their candidate.
As we have said over the first rotation plan
ever introduced in this District.
If Hart has been injured bv the rotation
system as is claimed, why cling to it any
longer? Why attempt to elbow candidates
out of the field with a flimsy pretext
which Hal t herself acknowledges to be un
kuist?

•* Ilart” which appeared in the Toccoa
Herald. “ Franklin ” clearly admits the
facts and figures as set forth by *• Hart.”
j as to the claim of Hart Comity to the Sun
i atorship, but says, “ why keep up the ro
tation system, when it lias worked such
1 injustice as is complained of by *• Ilart?”
•* Hart ” nowhere complains that in
! justice has been done, up to this time, but
that the rotation system has worked well
j from 1802 up to now. The rotation sys
i tern hns been kept in perfect good faith
since its inauguration by Habanbnm.
Franklin and Ilart up to this time. ** Frank
lin ” charges that ” Hurt County ignored
the rotation system and hotted w hen Mr.
J. If. Henson was elected in 1802.” When
Mr. Henson, from Ilart nnd Mnj. Freeman,
from Frank lin announced themselves a
candidates in 1802 the rotation system w as
not agreed upon by the counties. There
had been no understanding up to that time.
During that canvass, or soon after the elec
tion, it was mutually agreed toby the three
counties. The fact is, Nlr. Sidney Harr,
of Habersham, was the first candidate ever
placed in the Held under the rotation sys
tem. who was elected in 18(i;t. The con
fusion that got up in 1802 between Mr.
Henson and Freeman, was what gave rise,
or was the cause of adopting the rotation
sys'em. That system has been kept in
perfect good faith by each of the comities
ever since. Now let us sec how the record
stands. In 18011. Mr Sidney Harr, of Hab
hersbam. was elected, and there was no
candidate outside of that county. In 1815,
Mai. Freeman was elected from Franklin,
ana no candidate in the field outside of
that county. In 1808. Mr. Wm. F. Bow
ers was elected from Hart, nnd no candi
date in the field outside of Ilart. In 1870.
Mr. Wm. S. Erwin was elected from Hali
er.'ham. and no candidate in the Held out
side of that county. In 1874. Mnj. Free
man. of Franklin, was elected, and no can
didate in the Held outside of Franklin,
These arc facts the records show, and
cannot he disputed.
The history of the past shows the sys
tem has worked well. Harmony and the
best of good feeling has existed between
the three counties for the last fifteen years
under its workings.
Why ignore and break it up now where
it has worked so well?
*• Franklin ” in his communication says.
“ the truth of the whole matter, every
man should run for office upon his own
merits, and the longest pole takes the per
simmons.”
In this “Franklin” discloses his true
colors and position, which is this, at thin
jnirtinilar time, lie trnul I d'< atnuj irilh llir
rotation system, inasmueh its hit vomit tf has
just had its term; and hr trmild rnmr in
and take another term on the i/ronnds of
mrrit. and at thr end o f the nrrt term. ISSO.
hr mii/ht come in and id aim another on some
other /iri text.
It would do Hart County a manifest in
justice to break up the rotntion system at
this time until the last round is completed.
It \\ oilld just cut her out of one term ; as
we commenced with llahcrsham. Franklin
next, and Hart next let us all get round,
and if it is desirable with all the counties,
then stop it.
His claims reminds me very much
of the partnership of the white man and
Indian : in hunting they killed a turkey
and a Imr./.ard, the white man proposed
that lie would take the turkey anil the In
dian the buzzard, or else the Indian might
take the buzzard and he the turkey—the
application of which is that " Franklin's”
communication claims all.
I do not believe the people of the .'fist
Senatorial District, arc tired of the rotation
system. The citizens of Habersham say
tout they are not. and they intend to keep
it up in good faith, and they concede this
term to Hart County ; and many of the
citizens of Franklin have so expressed
themselves, ami we believe that many
more will on the lirst Wednesday in De
cember next, hy voting for Hart County's
candidate. Hut “ Franklin ” says “ that
every man should run on his own merits.”
That is very good logic; hut at the same
time every county should have its rights.
Each county is a corporation, and ail to
gether make the Stale of ticorgia. and it
is a principle long been recognized and
settled in the fundamental law of the land
that each county is intilled to representa
tion in the Legislative department of the
State. At the time of the adoption of the
-rt-y ill'll ufMfffTT’TlT'ril.'M'rt* vmllilY
was entitled to representation both in the
Senate and House of Representatives; the
constitution of 18(11 provided that the Sen
ate should fie reduced to If members —
oi c from each Senatorial District. The
Senatorial districts should he composed of
throe counties eon iguous to each other, and
doubtless from long usage, and from the
very language used it was contemplated
hy the framers of that constitution, that
each county in the State, should at some
time bo represented in tin 1 Senate. Ami
I cannot see but that the :11st District, as
well ns nil other Districts tlint have ndopt
eil the rotation system, have been ns ahlv
and faithfully represented in the (ieorgia
Senate, as the'Very few Districts in the
State, that have not adopted the rotation
system, and where they have had scrub
races at large.
One county in the -list District, lias nev
er since the r dec'ion of the Senate
been represented in that body. She has had
her candidates in the field, and they
have as often been defeated—not on the
grounds of merit, but for the reason that
the other counties were stronger, and had
a lunch larger voting population and inva
riably elected their candidate. In this case
merit was not the test, the test was county
lines, and doubtless would be in more than
half the districts in the State, if the rota
tion system was not observed.
*• Franklin” says ••the rotation system
was only intended for ono canvass,” —that
i- when Mr. Sidney Harr from Habersham
run. That is an a Iniission on his part, as
we have shown it was not agreed to in the
canvass of Henson and Freeman in 1861.
And he says further. ” like the old clique
nominating system, dead as a door nail.”
When that system was agreed to by the
three counties, and Mr. Sidney Harr put in
the field in (the first candidate that
actually ran under it) the agreement be
tween the counties was unlimited as to
time, and has been strictly adhered to by
each county ever since, up to tins time as
lias been shown.

Hurt, as “Franklin” terms it; but nt a
mass meeting of tilt citizen* of Hart coun
ty. railed on tlu.- HUhjSept., Hie resolution

“Inasmuch as it was Hart ( ounty's time
Ito he represented in (lie Senate during
(next term, and as it was desirable tliui
i there should be but one candidate in the
Held from this County.’' a primary election
was ordered to take place on the 15th of
October, and whoever received the highest
number of votes should be declared to be
; the nominee. At said election there were
75 l votes polled, nnd oh tlie day follow nut
the managers of the various uree'nU met.
ami consolidated the vote of tilt* Counti
was declared that Mr. Hodges waWjTm)' 1

term (one session). If any person is eMH
tied to it. it would he Mnj. Freeman. It is
well understood that he does not claim ft
as a personal right. He is too just for that.
This is the one string to the how. or
rather the first string that was sprung, but
being considered, after the facts and figures
arc run up. rather weak, Franklin in his
reply to Hart, virtually abandons that
position, aud claims it on merit. Hut is
there any tinexpired term due Franklin
county or any other county? Most assured
ly there is none. The same power, the
people in Convention in 1808, saying the
term of a Senator should he four years, hns
met in 1877 and ~aid it should end in three
years, as to one-half the Senators in the
ktntc from the time of their clectim.
and at the ext Cation of ono year with
the (t'icr half of the Senators in the
State, nnd that ever after should he
two years, after the first term under the
new constitution. For instance: in the
UOth Senatorial District the rotation sys
tem has been adopted. Col. Kolicrt Hes
ter. from Elbert, represented that District
in the term before the last, Mnj. Bullock
was elected from Madison just one year
ago. nnd only served in the last session,
and it is know that Madison has no candi
date in the Held, and does not claim any
thing more, and that Oglethorpe takes next
according to the rotation agreed to. and
hns hcrCindidate in the field. Surely Mad
ison would have much stronger ground, she
only having had one year, than Franklin
can have who lias had three years. "Frank
lin says in his conclusion. "if Ilart urges
this claim against Franklin, w ill he not al
so use’the same against Habersham ? This
term belongs to Hart, and of course Haber
sham will Mine in next. Hart County does
not claim hut one term —this she is entitled
to—she claims nothing more and nothing
less. We believe the good people of Hab
ersham. Franklin and Ilart counties will
not ignore on the Hrst Tuesday in Decem
ber next, that system of rotation which has
for the last fifteen years so successfully
smoothed the troubled w aters, through the
heated nnd excited political canvasses that
we have pussed through during all that
time. Hart.

President's Message.
Washington. October IC*.
Kki.i.ow Citizen* or the Senate
AxtillorsKOK REi’itESENTATfVEs: The
adjournment of the hist Congress with
out making appropriations for the sup
port of the army of the present fiscal
year has rendered necessary a suspen
sion of payments to the officers and
men of stuns due them for services ren
dered after the 30th dny of June last.
The army exists by virtue,of statutes,
wii li presiribe its number, regulate
its organization and employment, and
which fix the pay of its officers and
men. and declare their right to receive
the same at stated periods. These
statutes, however, do not authorize the
payment of troops in the absence of
specific appropriations therefor. The
constitution has wisely provided that
“no money shall be drawn from the
treasury but in consequence of appro
priations made by law,” and it has also
been declared by statute that “no de
partment. of tlie government shall ex.
ilend iannv ii'W /!..*! year n sunt in
excess of appropriat ions inn le by (W,.
gross for that fiscal year.” We h;K>.
therefore, an army in service, anthoriili
by law and entitled to be paid, but Hi
funds available for that purpose, Mt
may also be said, as an additional in
centive to prompt action by Congress,
that, since the commencement of tlhe
fiscal year, the army, though without
pay. has been constantly and actively
employed in arduous and dangemus
service, in the performance of which
both officers and men have discharged
their duty with fidelity, and witluhiit
complaint. |
These Circumstances, in mv judg
ment. constitute an extraordinary occa
sion, requiring that Congress be cim
vetted iu advance of the time prescribed
by law for your meeting in regular -scs
sion. The importance of speedy action
uj>on this subject on the part of Clan*
gress is so manifest that. I venture j to
suggest the propriety of making the (ne
cessary approprietions for the support
of the army for the current year, at its
present maximum numeral strength! of
20,000 men, leaving for future consid
eration all questions relating to the tin
crease or decrease of the number} of
enli-ted inn. In the event, of’re
duction of the army by subsequent
legislation during the fiscal year, the
excess of appropriation could not bo
expended, and in the event of its 'en
largement, the additional sum required
for the payment of extra force eoiibf be
provided for in due time. It wonlq be
unjust to the troops now in service, find
whose pay is already largely in arrears,
if paythem should bo further

764.1*8, and, having bepti transmitted to
Isith Houses of CongrtM, are submitted
for your consideration, Tliere is also
required by the Navy Department the
sum of $2,0011,861.27, This sum is
made up of $ 1,446,688. h due to officers
and enlisted men for the last quarter of
the fiscal year; $.‘511,958.50 due for the
advances made by the fiscal agent of
tjie government in London for the sup
qtort of foreign service : $50.000 due to
Naval Hospital fund ; $150,000 due for
arrearages of pay to officers, and $45,-
219.58 for the support of the Marine
Vorps. There will also lie needed an
appropriation of $262,584.22 to defray
unsettled ex|*ensesof the United States
Courts for the fiscal year ending June
| last, now due to the attorneys, clerks,
commissioners and marshals, and for
rent of court rooms, support of prison
ers and other deficiences. A part of
building of the Interior Department
was destroyed by fire on the 24th of
last month. Some repairs and tempo
rary structures have in consequence
become necessary, estimates for which
will be transmitted to Congress imme
diately, and appropriation of the re
quisite funds is respectfully recom
mended.
L take this opportunity, also, to in
vite your attention to the propriety of
adopting, at your present session, ne
cessary legislation to enable the people
of the United States to participate in
the advantages of the International
Exhibition of agriculture, industry and
fine arts, which is to be held at Paris
in 1878, and in which this government
lias lieen invited by the government of
France to take part. This invitation
was communicated in May. 1876, by
the Minister of France at this capital,
and a copy thereof was submitted to
the proper committees of Congress at
its last session, but no action was tak
ing upon the subject. The Depart
ment of State has received many letters
from various parts of the country, ex
pressing a desire to participate in the
exhibition, and numerous applications
of a similar nature have also been
made attlie United States legation in
Paris. The Department of State has
also received official advice of a strong
desire on the part of the French
government, that the United States
should participate in this enterprise,
and space has hitherto l*een and still is
reserved in the exhibition buildings for
the use of exhibitors from the United
States, to the exclusion of other parties
who have been applicants therefor.
In order that our industries mav he
properly represented at the exhibition,
an appropriation will be needed for the
payment of salaries and expenses of
.commissioners, for the transportation
of goods, and for other purposes in
connection with the object in view, and
as May next is the time fixed for the
opening of the exhibition, if our citi
zens arc to share the advantages of this
international competition for the trade
of other nations, the necessity of im
mediate action is apparent.
To enable the United States to co
operate with the International Exhibi
tion which was held at Vienna in IH7.'?,
Congress then passed a joint resolution
making an appropriation of 200,000,
and authorizing the President to ap
point it certain number of practical ar
tisans and scientific men, who should
attend the exhibition, and report their
proceedings and observations to him.
Provision was also made for the ap
pointment of a number of honorary
commissioners. I have felt that prompt
action by Congress, in accepting the
invitation by the government of France.
is. W! so imi 'ii v.'Avi est to the people of
this country, so suitable to preserve \A i,
cordial relations existing between the
two countries, that the subject might
properly be presented for attention at
your present session.
The government of Sweden and Nor
way has addressed an official invitation
to this government to take part in the
International Prison Congress to h?
held at Stockholm next year. The
problem which Congress proposes to
study, how to diminish crime, is one in
which all civilized nations have an in
terest in common, and the congress of
stockholders seems likely to prove the
most important convention ever held
for the study of this grave question.
Under authority of a joint resolution of
j Congress, approved February 1 Oth,
1875, a commissioner was appointed
by my predecessor to represent the
United States upon that occasion, and
: the Prison Congress having l>een. at
the earnest desire of the Swedish gov
ernment, postponed until 1878, his
commission was renewed by me. An
appropriation of $8.0(M) was made in
the sundry civil service act of 1875 to
j meet the expenses of the commissioner.
1 recommend the re-appropriation of
that sum for the same purpose—the
former appropriation having been cov
ered into the treasury, and being no
longer available for this pnrposo, with
out further action by Congress. The
subject is brought to your attention at
this time in view of circumstances
which render it highly desirable that
the commissioner should proceed to the
discharge of his important duties im
mediately.
