The feeling of security lironght
about by tile absence of opposition
to the Democratic party here
in other comities during the past
several vears is liable to ho rudely
shaken when the returns are all in
from the presidential election,
We have no fears for the
of the ticket hut there is lieed
action, ■norgetic and determined,
on llm part of every Democrat,
What is wanted is such a
ty ns shall effectually put a stop
to the recent ly hatched Populistic
to disrupt the Democratic
party in Georgia and roar on
mins a mogn.-l heap.
The scheme to again turn
over to political disorder is
deep laid and far reaching,
HO than a great ninny have any
idea, audit the Democratic
polled in November shows a si
cient defection to tin; Populists to
warrant the formation of n new
party that party will be formed.
Newspapers, men i.q public of¬
fice who are professedly Democrats
but in reality hate the party, and
ot | lera vvh() ]',, lV( . „„ definite polit-
ical affiliations are only waiting
for t fie slightest encouragement
to declare themselves openly'
against (he Demociutic paif v.
We insist that there is need of
activity that will bring out tho
full strength of the party in the
0()111 jng national election,
The “Si piker.”
The vote polled at Clinton
t-Miicb in the recent state election
brought to light the fact that not
every man woo participates in a
Democratic primary considers
himself under any obligation to
support the nominee of Hid party,
And yet it, iH difficult for us to
understand how a man can think
otherwise.
There were £8 voles polled at
this precinct and only three candi¬
dates, E. T. Dumas for county
judge, J. It, Jackson for represen¬
tative, and U. 11. Kingman for
clerk r tho Superior court, re¬
I seived the total vote. ( Wo were
to procure the vote for
county commissioners.)
The two most notable instances
of “striking ’ were shown by
vote cast tar R. 11. Bonner for
Jdiunry and R. N. Ethridge for

such action places a, man’s party

a betting shed. Tins is a severe
indictment. No doubt it will be
resented by book makers,who are

clerks to mb their employers for
