CAKNESVlLLE, GA. MONDAY JANUARY i2 1891
Sheriff McCarter,
Clerk Phillips.
THE CONTEST IS OYER,
And Victor and Vanquished
Cheerfully Accept the
Verdict.
Last Wednesday was a red letter
for the modest aspirant for office
Franklin county.
The woods were full of candidate?,
they were all good men, worthy
every way of the highest trust
within the gift of the people. But
had to be defeated, and
defeat in this instance is not evi¬
of unfitness for office. The
cheerfully bow to the
of tha majority and go home
the'full consciousness that if
county has called some
men into service, she has miss¬
some mighty good ones,
The vote is given below:
FOR SHERIFF.

Probably Franklin county has
called better, stauncher, more
men to sit in her seats of
If Franklin county were ransacked
would be hard to find a bigger—
souletl man than genial John Mc.-
Carter. He has served our people
before in the capacity of sheriff, and
the handsome majority piled up ior
him this time over some oi the best
and bravest men within the
borders ot Franklin, is evidence that
past service w^as eminently satisfac¬
tory. Oui people salute you, Sheriff
McCarter.
Clerk.Phillips if his own successor,
and Franklin county has never had
a more faithful and efficient servant.
So well and faithfully has he served
the people foi the past two rears,
that even popular, big-hearted John
McCay could not defeat him. No
dissenting voice will be heard, when
we fay that Franklin county spoke
wisely and well, in recording J. M.
Phillips Clerk of Superior Court for
1891 and 1892.
If we were asked to point out the
man who has the strongest hold upon
the confidence oi allclasaesof ourpeo
pie, we would indicate Tax Collector
Carroll. There may bo other men
here who have accumulated moie of
this world’s goods, and who have
outstripped him in the race ior place
and power, but there is not one who
has a stronger hold upon the confi¬
dence of the people. We are sorry
that such a gcod man as Alex White
had to taste the bitterness ot^defeat,
but it is nohumilitation to be de¬
feated by such a man as George W,
Carroll, who has been laithtul to
the last degree to every duty in
life.
There was not a man in the county,
among a great many of our best cit¬
izens who offered for the office, that
cou d defeat Jesse Lecroy foi Receiver
The duties of the office hare been ef¬
ficiently discharged by Mr. Lecroy,
and we are glad that he has succeed¬
ed himself. We hope that he may
hold the office as long as he wants it,
because he is a cripple and needs it.
Thomas Burton succeedud himself
without opposition. He should have
a lease upon the office of Treasurer
for as long a time as he wants it.
There is no man in the county who
is more worthy of the trust of the
people,
Surveyor Conger is one of the
staunchest men in the county, and
no one thought of opposing him.
Coroner Sorrows, who will dis¬
charge his duties to the best ot his
ability, ends the list.
Can anycounty in Georgia boast of
better officers?
Wisdom and patriotism guided the
vote ot the people of Franklin in the
year ot our Lord, eighteen hundred
and ninely-one.
The Tribuke salutes our officials
from Sheriff McCarter down to Cor¬
oner Sorrows.

Republican
America
SHELVES TIIE FORCE BILL.
The forec bill has gone to that
bourne trom whence no traveller ever
returns.
Bennie Harrison and Granny Hoar
are the nation’s patients.
By a vote of 34 to 29 the force
bill was laid on the shell to give
place to financial legislation; which
means that the foree bill is dead.
No section ot this country has
been more loyal to the Union, and
no section has contributed more to
the prosperity of this country than
the south. Representative states¬
men all over the country rose in
revolt against oppressive legislation
for a people so peaceful prosperous
and happy.
Partisan republicans who led the
war of hatred against the loyal
south, have oeen pushed into the
shade.
It is well that the force bill has
been killed. It would never have
served its purpose while the faith
of our fathers lives in ns. '
MARRIED.
At the residence ot Mr. G. M. Ag-
new, Franklin county, Ga., on the 1st
day of January, 1891. by J. G. W,
Sewell, J. P., Mr. W. P. Thurman
and Miss Etta Agnew, all ot said
county.
MERCER UNIVERSITY/.
AND THE BAPTISTS OF GEORGIA,
This institution, founded by Jesse
Mercer more than fifty j r ears ago, is
the property of the 200,000 Baptists
in Georgia, during its existence, it
has made large contributions m men
of ability to the professions and to
the useful walks of life. Some of
Mercer’s graduates fill the highest
offices in the state and nation. The
new governor ot Georgia and five
of our congressmen were educated at
Mercer.
The endowme>t of this college has
been gradually growing, and the
trustees, mere than a year ago
opened it to all, without regard to
denominational distinctions, and
made tuition free. During the pas*
year, free tuition wai given to one
hundred and seventy-five young men
board and tuitiomwas given to thirty
eight, and board, tuition anti books,
were given to six. - lie aim of the
management is thoroughness in schol¬
arship, good discipline at all times,
and economy in expenditure.
The patronage has grown so large
that a ne w building became necessary
and accordingly it is being erected
and is now nearing completion. To
finish this building, the Baptists of
Georgia expect to take collections in
eveiy church during the month of
January. The pastors of more than
two hundred churches have agreed to
take collections in tbeir chuiches and
it is desirable that every pastor do
the same, and by concert of action,
raise in one day, all the money that
is needed. The Baptist pastors m
this county, P. E. Crawford, G. W.
Carroll, T. G. Underwood, J. J.
Beck and others are reminded of
NO 2
—-7-
that purpose and the member* and
friends should arrange and be Mady
lo mate large, liberal and eheerfo]
contributions. Let every ono j n jj, e
city and in the .country, both young
and old, rich and poor give something
Besides paying for j he building, they
should also add to the endowment
and thus enable the college to do
more liberal things for the young
men of our state
The Baptists m Georgia should
be encouraged by the gift ot Mr. J.
D. Rockfel lor, who proposes to give
$10,000 to the endowment if they
will raise $40,000.
Be.sure to take a collection for
Mercer university during the month
January,and sendjthe money imme¬
to the president.
Rev. G A. Nunnalt,
Macon, Georgia.
douglasville menagarie.
A war of creeds is beiDg waged at
Douglasville.
Rev. Mr. Carswell, a Baptist min¬
ister, and Armistead, a miniater of
the Methodist church, are the com¬
batants who have turned the house
of God into a place tor a side show.
Such contestants are not at home
among the enlightened ministry of
this age. They are out of their
sphere in the pulpit of any church.
They are lacking in either the intel-
ligence or the sincerity requisite to
the men to whom the Lord has said,
“Go teach all nations.” They
know little cf the message of peace
which the Christ-chiid came to pro¬
claim to men, so long ago. They
are a disgrace to the Christianity
which they profess. They belong to
an age of daikness and supersti-
tion.
Carswell and Armistead are living
five hundred years too la£e. The
doors of all churches should be for¬
ever closed against ministerial prize
fighters.
Rev. Mr, Lew is,oi Trinity church,
Atlanta, being asked his opinion of
the Douglasville controversy upon
baptism, answered:
‘‘There is no need ot it. What¬
ever may be the particular mode of
baptism the apostles practiced, it I*
oi no importance to know it. No
man is better for having been bap¬
tised as they were, or worse for not
having been. Controversy about
baptism in general indicates want
of sense or earnestness. Whenevef
a man enters a pulpit and takes tbl*
for his subject, he indicates his total
unfitness for the ministry of peace
and if he can find nothing else to
preach about he had better quit
preaching. No well-informed man
thinks that baptism is of any cssen>
tial importance, and I should expeat
to fatten men on east wind and
sawdust a3 surely as help them by
advocating any particular mode of
baptism. This whole controversy
property belongs to the dark ages
and the realms of bigots. It Is a
disgrace to Christianity. Denomi¬
national controversy on anysnbject
is out of place, r and upon this sub¬
ject it is too little for earnest men.
It is a nuisance and should be abated
a pest and should be quarantined.”
There is a fine field lor the work
of a;Womaa's Temperance Dnloff
in Franklin county.
