Gen. Waclc Hampton was m
Augusta last Monday, the guest of
his old comrades in war, and it was
a great day for Augusta. There
may not lie another lik reunion of
Confederate heroes this side of tne
eternal camping ground. In bis
address to the veterans General
Hampton said :
“Ju-.t after the war General Lee
wrote me, and requested that I
would give him a ^correct narrative
oi the operations of the calvary
corps of the last camp, ign in Vir¬
ginia. He was, ms you know, about
to write a hislorj* of the war, nnci
it was a great mi-.for; vue to the
South that he was not at that time
prepared 10 finish L. In his let¬
ter he said that the difference be-
tween tlie sectio s culminated in
blood, but not ii treason. Those
ware uis words, ar.d I want everf

and every man - who followed the
Southern cross, to tell his children

GLORIOUS REFORMERS.
; In certain quarters there is, just
■ at present, a strong disposition to
make it exceedingly unconfortable
for heretics.
Perhaps this is not to be regret¬
ted , hut there should be a decent
and orderly way of proceeding m
such case M.
But in some localities the people
have very crude notions concernin
their rights and duties ia the premi¬
ses. Near Oircleville, ()., a young
man was recently cut almost lo
pieces by several j er-oi.s whose ox¬
en-e was that their victim was a
runl^unbeiiever, and. had with his
hersesies tried to corrupt the minds
of orthodox yon ug ladies.—[Atlanta
Constitution.
"Will the Constitutio suggest
some “decent and orderly way cf
proceeding” against unbelievers, m
this “land cf the free and home of
the brave” where f»eedom of thought
and speech has been held as the
dearest right of a free people.
Heretofore we have had some ex¬
amples of “a decent and orderly
way of proceeding” against unbe¬
lievers. Tom Paine, the “Author
he: 0 of the revolution,” the comrade
of Washington and the defender of
Amo; ienu independence, was con¬
signed to hades “in a decent way”
by zealous reformers, and all be¬
cause he had dared to think for
himself. In the same “orderly wav”
the followers of John Calvin burned
Michael Seryetu- and New England
puritans burned the witches of
New England, for the sake of reli¬
gion . Are we to return to such
practices? Are we lo proceed
against a man in an “orderly way”
or in any kind of a way because of
Ins unbelief?
The “.stars and stripes'- are hon¬
ored by all the nations of the earth
as the national colors of the “land
of the free and the home of the
brave”—an asylum for the oppres¬
sed "I every quarter of the globe.
iV e have witnessed the glorious
dawn of an enlightened and pro¬
gressive era. And is it in keeping
with the spirit of progress which
permeates this great American
republic, in the last decade of the
nineteenth century, to proceed
against any man in any way be¬
cause of his belief or Ins unbelief V
Georg ia Farmers are Demo-
crats.
“Even iu deorgia there is u
strong sentiment in favor of break¬
ing loose from old parly ties, and
joining the reform movement of the
\V est; and this feeling is growing
daily, Tlie Aliiancemen of severel
onnties have endorsed it.—-Alliance
Farmer.
And eyeii in Georgia there are
demagogues who would be willing
to disrupt the Democratic party, if
thereby they might advance person¬
al interests. But the sentiment in
favor of bre king loose fr om Demo¬
cracy is not so strong as Leonidas,
Harry and Larry may suppose.
G oorgia farmers may be led astray
by demagogues but they can not be
led out of Democratic ranks. Taey
iviiow that the preservation ot he
beneficent institutions of a free
government depends upon the
preservation of Democracy. Leon¬
idas has had some S^iccess in lead¬
ing Georgia farmers around, but
when be undertakes to make then?
apostates to the articles of faith in
the political creed of their fathers,
lie will find thit he has reconed
without his host.
TH E SACRED SOUTH
Bill Arp makes an eloquent plea
in Sunday’s Constitution for south¬
ern talent in southern school rooms.
Why, indeed, should w r e go abro id
for our brain work ? The best
thought of the world, all that graces
life avd strengthens living, has been
nurtured, and had its fullest develop¬
ment in southern land?, But it is
true that southern talent has found
its best appre« iation when transplant¬
ed to northen fields. It is time we
were le'ruing to place a proper esti¬
mate upon our home talent, and that
the finest literary light of the world
has illumined souihera skies.
GERMANY’S DEAD SOLDIER*
Field Marshall Count Yon
died in Berlin 24th mst. He
one of the greatest soldiers of this
century, and was Lora the first
of the century, and. was therefore
nin ety years old at his death. Of
tbc § reat tnnmvirate—Emperor Wil¬
liam I, Count Von Molkt and Chan-
eelior Binnark—who-e statesman-
and military prowess ha re made
t-'-e German empire what it is t>-day,
Bismarck alone survives.
\ Comments of Press and People.
Many cheering words have come
to us during the past week or two,
from strangers and from friends in
Georgia and in distant states. Here
is an inspilirg message taken from a
letter written by Mrs. McLendon, a
white ribbon comrade in Atlanta, Ga:
‘T was greatly interested in your
article in the Constitutional)'1 X am
rejoiced that there is one woman in
Georgia who can,, so ably defend her¬
self and her sex.?.* * * * You have
a paper of your own which you can
control, and you can, like Queen
Es her, do a noble work for the wo¬
men of your wanted generation. * »- *
But I only to thank you, and
bid you God speed, and say that I
am one woman who is ready and wil¬
ling to co-operate wi.li any and ail
brave women who desire equal rights
before the iaw, and a fair chance
to earn a living,in any direction that
man does, and ae.Mres the protection
accorded-to a good citizen iu the
pursuit of life, liberty and ha ppim.-s*’
We give below an extract from a
letter written by a stranger in a dis
taut state:
“Noticing an article in our daily
N. Y. World which you wiote about
some editor in your city urges us to
write to you. Every word is cutting
and we like to see such talent en¬
couraged. Our object in writing to
you is business J
A Georgia friend writes :
“J admire the splendid record you
are making in defense of the people’s
rights ns opposed to the treachery
of ambitious and misleading dema¬
gogues, and time will vindicate ev¬
ery position taken by Tiie Trib¬
une editor, and that at no distant
day. The principles which you ad¬
vocate are the principles of true Dein-
racy; pure as the ‘beautiful sno\v‘ and
as enduring as time itself. They can
never die while human governments
are necessary for the well being of
nations. Keep up the fight and you
will have the support of all liberty
loving people in our grand old couu-
A prominent Georgia journalist writes:
“Allow me to congratulate you e& the stirring
manner in which you exemplify the; truth that
‘‘th8 pen is mightier than the sword.”
Mi.-sEllen Dortch, the pretty editor of The
Cabsesville Tkibune, let M -. I.on McConnell,
of the Enterprise, off with four columns of edit¬
orial last week. The war has been raging for
two weeks, provoked by an attack made by Mc¬
Connell upon Miss Dortch. Miss Dcrtch un¬
doubtedly has the best of the argument, am.
the Times believes Miss Dortch is right.-
Brunswick Times.
Ml3s Ellen J. Dortch, the aceomplishodetUtor
of The Carnesviule Thibuhe, is just now en¬
gaged in a controversy^'With her contemporary
oithe Enterprise, Mr. L. J. McConnell. We
know nothing of the relative merits of the con¬
troversy, but we do know that Miss Dortch is
displaying considerable ability in holding up
her side of the question.--Alpharetta Free
Press.
Miss Ellen Dortch, editor of The Carnesvii.le
Thibune, is engaged in a bitter newspaper war
with the editor of iho Carnesville Enterprise,
We do not know anything of the merits of the
controversy, but the manner in which Miss
Dortch conducts her side of it increases the ad¬
miration the Telegraph has long felt for her as
a clear and forcible writer......Macon Telegraph
Apparantiy Editor Ellen Dortch lia-3 good
reason for flaying- the masculine competing ed¬
itor of Franklin county in her Tiubuxe. If he
Mas been guilty of making unfouded isinua-
tiocs against .her reputation I10 is certainly a
very cowardly man and deserves all of the caus¬
tic epithets she has applied to him to liberally.
At the same time the Morning News is ia favor
of cerene harmony in the fraternity, and would
therefore suggest that if Miss Dortch will only
try to “ look pleasant,” as the photographers
say, the next time she may chance to meet the
disgruntled rival editor, it may kave a tendency
to heal his wounds. That would be far more
pleasant than peiorating one another with dead¬
ly “shootingisticks.”— Savannah Morning News.
THE LORD GDI LOTTED.
Elizabethtown, N. J. has a body of
pj.greesiva GhrL'daue—progressive iu
wa/of boycotts.
Tlio people ci Georgia knot/ aome-
ibing about boycotts. They have boy-
coiicd uostuiaster-geacrals, lawyers, phy¬
sicians, icerchskiis, newspapers, etc.
uvea wholo cities, but tho most rabid
of boycotters never dreamed of in uitu
ting a boycott again at 'Almighty God.
1 his is what ihe first Methodist church
oi F.Lzabcthtown N. J. has done* The
s xton hao refused t® ring the bell for
MA-vioes, the choir to giiid, s.nd the con-
gregaiiou ha3 b«:en ia a st . e oi non ex¬
istence. All because the conference
failed lo return a former pastor to whom
they were much attache*.’.. As the mim
isier who was appointed is a servant oi
the Lord, they may be said 10 have in-
siituted a boycott agaiust the Almighty.
The people oi the First Methodist
church of Eiizabethtoim represent a
peculiar type of Christianity.

Veterans, under whose auspices the ser¬
vices were held, and the Picket corps,

were in uniform. Col. A. W. Archer
presided.
Rev. S. A. Goodwin, orator of the oc¬
casion, delivered an. eloquent address on
the life of Gen. Johnston. He dwelt
before especially on the campaign of Johnston
Sherman, and said : "The world
lias yet to produce a bolder or braver
army than that which followed Johnston
from Dalton to Atlanta. Their zeal
never faltered, nor did their courage
fail. They struck the last blow of the
Confederacy. Brief ”
remarks were also made by Rtevs.
Mr. Landrum, Parr and Ray. The vast
audience also sang several appropriate

PUGILISTS ARRIVE.
Charlie MitcRcll aiul Frank Slavin Have
Come to America.
New York, April 28.—The pugilists
Charlie Mitchell and Frank Slavin, were
passengers on the White Star steamship,
Germanic, which arrived here recently.
They were welcomed at quarantine by a
party pf sporting men, who went down
the bay on a steam tug, with a band of
music, but the ship’s officers would not
permit them to be transferred to the tug
boat, as was requested. The tug accoim
panied the steamship to her Christopher
street dock, where a great crowd had as¬
sembled to greet the fighters.
Thera is one state that is sure of an
added congressman at any rate. That
is Colorado. She now has a population
110.800, iRM03t double that of 1888.
