r j he next house of representa¬
tives of tho Georgia legislature
wil l be composed of 159 democrats,
12 third party men and 4 republi¬
cans.
The presidential election will be
on the 8th of November, and every
democrat in Franklin must come
to th® polls on that day and help
redeem the honor of our county by
a splendid democratic majority.
The third party leaders are at
work now as hard as ever, and
democrats should not grow care¬
less evcM in tho face of seventy
thousand majority.
C. C. Post seems to have been
the wisest one of the third party
leaders. Ho read the hand writing
on the wall and sneaked off to
Florida a long time ago.
The republican advisers of the
third party toll tho reformers that
the life of tho third party depends
upon th® election of Tom Watson.
The democrats of the tenth have
already dug Tom Watson’s politic¬
al grave.
Since statesman Lease has quit
trying to save the government and
gone home to her husband and
children, Georgia is a better place
to live in.
This is tho way it reads: Flori¬
da 20,000 democratic majority,
Georgia, 70,000, Alabama, 12,000,
Arkansas, 25,000. This seems to
ba a democratic country, and we
are having fino weather and cotton
has gone up.
Billy Peek carried eight counties
in Georgia. And it was declared
a few weeks ago that Billy would
sweep the state by 25,000 majority.
It has leaked out that Boss Buck

Gov. Nortlien has issued a proc¬
lamation setting apart Friday,
Oct. 21st, as a state holiday, to com¬
memorate the discovery of Ameri¬
ca by Christopher Columbus.
A largo -number of the colored
voters of this county voted the
democratic ticket in the state cam¬
paign. The colored men should
vote the democratic ticket in the
national election. Wo are Hie!;
best friends, and it is to their in¬
terest to support measures that
benfit us.
One of the spiciest papers that
has reached oui desk in a longtime
is the Telescope, published at Val¬
dosta, Miss Florence B. Williams
editor. Miss Williams is one of
the brightest, young newspaper
women in Georgia, and that she
will make a^uccess of tho Telescope
is a foregone conclusion.
The Macon Evening Nows is to
be congratulated on the acquisition
to it# editorial staff of Mrs. Lollie
Belle Wylie. Mrs. Wylie is one of
tho sweetest of southern singers,
and has won the sobriquet in Geor¬
gia newspaper circles of “the queen
of song and verse.”
Statesman Lease has deserted
Weaver and is now advising her
Kansas followers to support Har¬
rison. Tiie Tribune has asserted
all along that the third party lead¬
ers were playing into the hands of
the republicans.
Editor Irwin, of the Alliance
Fanner, who has been posing as
friend of tho “poor, oppressed farm¬
ers,” ia suing the alliance organ for
a salary of #166 a month. It does
seem fchat Editor Irwin’s iriend-
ship comes rather high, and that it
is a little bit of a hardship for the
farmers to kave to pick cotton at
40 cents a hundred and pay Edit¬
or Irwin #166 a month for his val¬
uable service to the republican par¬
ty in helping to divide the demo¬
cratic voters of Georgia.

WORK FOR DEMOCRATS.
There is work for every democrat
in this county between now and the
November elections.
Heretofore our county has been
so overwhelmingly democratic that
there has been little need of work
on this lino.
Now these conditions are
ed.
A new Messiah has arisen in the
political field and divided the
white voters of our county.
The democratic voters of Frank¬
lin will be confronted in Novem¬
ber not only by the republican
vote of the county, but by many
of their friends and neighbors
who have heretofore been their po¬
litical allies.
With two enemies to fight there
is little time for lethargy indemo-
cratic camps.
There is no doubt about the de-
mocracy of the State and the
Eighth Congressional district, ! uit
for the credit of our county everv
good citizen should labor to carry
it for democracy by a creditable
majority in November.
Ours was one of the few lone
counties in the State that dishon¬
ored Georgia by answering to a
small majority for the third pnrlv
in the state election.
We want to lift this mark of
shame from our county, and in this
-.York wo will have the help of many
good men who were blindly led into
the third party.
Democratic meetings and •- enk-
ings should 1)0 held in every dis-
trictin tho county many time
fore the 8th of .November.
The third party loaders of this
county are treacherous and schem¬
ing and they will take advantage
of any indifference on the part of
democrats. They are marshalling
their hosts for a more determined
fight than ever, They are bent on
defeating Lawson and electing
their candidates for the county of¬
fices.
This they can not do if demo¬
crats will do their duty. There
was too much lethargy in our
ranks previous to the state elec-
Let us not repeat this offence
against democratic government.
Our salvation lies in work.
Then be up and doi g, democrat S,
until the last vote is polled on
the 8th of November.
You are called upon to fight the
force bill, tariff robbery—to fight
for the constitutional freedom of
this government which protests
against such paternal schemes as
the government owners! > of rail-
roads.
You are called upon l ight for
for the honor and freedom oi
your children.
Can you afford to strike-weak
and indifferent blows in such a
cause?
Judge Gresham, of In; i na, a
prominent candidate on th ? Repub¬
lican ticket; Wayne MeVeagh, of
Pennsylvania, who was attorney
general under Garfield’s adminis¬
tration ; Judge Cooley, of Michigan,
who was at the head of the rail¬
road commissi' n, and a large nil tu¬
ber of other leading republicans,
have announced their support of
Cleveland. And they give as a
reason for the change that they
cannot support the high tariff
plank in the republican platform.
The tariff that defeated Cleve¬
land four years ago, before the
people had a chance to understand
the question, is going to be a win¬
ning card ix this campaign.

YAWSON TO SPEAK IN
CARNESYITJ.E.
Eatonton, Ga., Oct. 10, 1S92
L. J. ■ McConnell,
Carnesville, Ga.
My Dear Sib: I would like to
meet and address all th© people, of
all political parties, of Franklin
county, ? t Carnesville on Saturday
the 22nd inst., if it will suit them
to have a conference with me.
They are all my constituents
and I w uld be glad to meot them
and give an account of my steward¬
ship. No man I think, will regret
having heard me.
Please give ample notice that I
will be with you, Providence per¬
mitting on that day. I would have
been with you earlier but for urg¬
ent need of my presence at other
places.
If necessary write me at
well where I will be on the
inst.
Very truly yours,
Tnos. G. Lawson.
As will be seen from the above
letter, Judge Lawson will address
tho citizens of this county on Sat¬
urday, 22nd inst.
Judge Lawson comes to sp( ak
words of soberness and truth to
men whom he has represented ably
and faithfully in tho halls of tho
national congress, aud we hope
that every voter in the county will
give him a hearing.
Georgia has never had a purer
representative and few abler ones
in congress than Thos. G. Lawson.
No man to whom our voters owe
allegiance, is better fitted to guide
the people aright in unsettled times
like these, than Judge Lawson.
Now let all our people come togeth¬
er in a spirit of fairness and friend¬
liness and hear what Judge Lawson
has to say for himself and the po¬
litical party that ha3 been so abus¬
ed and misrepresented by latter day
orators.
We can’t a fiord to be divided,
men of Franklin. Our interests
are identical. Let us come togeth¬
er in peace in the only party that
has over promised to guard the
rights and liberties of the southern
p-pi*.
DEMOCRATS, READ!
To the Democrats of Georgia—
The day upon which the national
election is to be held is near at
hand. With the prestige of our re¬
cent victory, the same organiza¬
tion and enthusiastic work which
achieved it will give to our party a
more magnificent victory in No¬
vember.
Every democratic candidate is
entitled to and should receive the
full vote of his party. There are
four electoral tickets before the
people of this state, and we must
not be content to allow our electors
to reel eve a bare majority over the
combined vote of the other parries.
Cur victory must bn signal; our
triumph as decisive an in tho last
contest.
It is gratifying to note that a
larg? number of our former mem¬
bers, who have recently alienated
from us, are now returning to our
party, and will battle with us for
reform and relief. "We welcome
thorn to aid in the election of
Grover Cleveland aud the other
nominees of the party, and extend
to all such an invitation to par¬
ticipate with us in the party’s
battles. Let us honestly and earn¬
estly work to again .become a
united people. There must be no
intolerance and no proscription of
those who, in good faith, desire to
act with us.
I have obseved with pleasure
and gratification that a larger num¬
ber of our colored fellow citizens
are joining the democratic host
than ever before. It is a pi '-using
evidence of their appr •!( >11 < f
the fair and generous i t
which has been accorded i;v-m by
our democratic administration.
and that they are awakened to the
fact that their safest polilioal al¬
lies are the men who treat mem
best in their business and personal
relations ; build their church : and
schooihouses, support their com¬
mon schools, and exhibit in every
way an interest in their material,
moral and intellectual welfare.
I respectfully request that tin-
daily and weekly press, winch has
been of such invaluable g vice to
the party during this campaign !.>•>-
gin at once and urge the importan¬
ce of organization, of registering
in those counties which have a r g-
isteration law, and of polling m
November a larger vote, if
bie, than in the October
There is too much at stake
any democrat to be indifferent to
the result. Every member of
party is now called into active ser¬
vice until 6 o’clock, November 3tii
I am confident that every dem¬
ocrat will do his duty, and that
the day will be ours.

THE DUTY OF COLOR-

Bishop Brown, of tho African
Methodist; Church, Writes an
Open Letter.
Bishop J. M. Brown, Washing¬
ton, one of the most distinguished
prelates of the African Methodist
church and a scholar of renown,
has written an open letter on the
political situation, which is attract¬
ing widespread attention. Under
th© heading “Which Shall We
Vote For?” Bishop Brown writes
to the colored citizens of the coun-
try as follows:
There are four gentlemen and
one lady who are candidates
the presidency of the United
States, viz.: Benjamin Harrison
the present incumbent, the nom-
neG °f tk e republican party; ex¬
president Grover Cleveland,
nominee'of the democratic party;
General James B. Weaver, of the
farmers’ alliance, and General
Bidwell, candidate for tho pro¬
hibition party; besides Miss M.
Martin, the nominee of the free and
equal suffrage party. Whi-sh of
these must we voto for?
Mr. Harrison is the representa¬
tive of the out and out republican
party. Tho record of this party
in many respects is grand. It is
the party to which we have largely
allied ourselves, and for nearly
thirty years wo have done ail we
could to make it a success. We
havo voted and some of our people
have died for its prog a ss. But
now the question is being a-kod by
a largo number of us, y,- hat are wo
being benefited by our adherence
to. it? We have not grown into
manhood by it. Our brethren are
lynched and not a word is said
against it by too administration.
There is not that uplifting influ¬
ence which might come to us.
The party everywhere seems to be
dumb when a word is to be said and
sa ^ for us. Our f< nd hoy s
a re disappointed, The cha lice is
put to our lips, bul : it is made to
vanish befoj me comfort conies
b 11 S. Our men are omMinms
nominated for office, their names
sent .to the senate, but bef--.ro the
senate has time to act, the name is
withdrawn, as in the case of Dr.
Crumb, of Charleston, S. C. Dr.
Crumb is a most excellent man.
He has but ono fault; that i?, he
is colored. I am told a colored
gentleman called on the present
postmaster general in advocacy of
tho doctor’s claims and pleaded
that Dr. Boseman, another colored
man had been postmaster of that
honorable city, and served most
acceptably to both colored and
white. The postmaster-general
told him it was wrong and he
should never have been appointed.
When Mr. Mathews, a colored
man, was nominated for recorder
of deeds of Woshington by
President Cleveland the senate re-
fused to confirm him, but instead
of Mr. Cleveland withdrawing his
namo, he continued him in office
until the congress met one year
after, when ho renewed his nomina¬
tion.. The senate twice refused to
confirm. I was a member of a
committee which called upon Presi¬
dent Cleveland .in the interest of
Mr. Matthews, and I never save a
man so moved as he was, and -he
said the senators had disappointed
him, then rad promised l > vole
for his confirmation, but d failed
to do so. He satisfied mo that he
war, a true man, true to any inter¬
est to which he eommittod himself.
Not to be defeated, he nominated
a Massachusetts colored man,
which brought to him the influence
of Massachusetts and New England
and he was confirmed and contiued
in his office until Mr. Harrison
was inaugurated pros id -nfc of the
United Status.
When Mr. Cleveland was faulted
because he treated Hon. Fred
Douglas politely, civilly and as
gentlemanly as he did others, Mr
Cleveland in recent letter did not
try to shirk responsibility for such
an act, but vindicated his action.
Not long ago be spoke most kindly
of our people and urged kind
treatment towards colored citizens,
" j was told by a genii .'man in
New Fork—at o ae lime chief of
the Indian bm :: u, a man of wealth 1
and social position, a devoted dem-
ocrat, a southerner by birth an i
education and an ex-slavoholdei
tIia ^ no nad oeen assured
Cleveland that if elect♦•l president
the United O L y tOS 110
prove as true to tho interest of the
colored men - as any man who
might be elected to that high and
exalted position.
In his reply to Hon. Peter M.
Clark, a colored man, lie
most kindly and expressed his
deep interest in our course. Have
we had such kind utterances from
any other candidate? The ques¬
tion comes to us: What is our
duty in casting our ballot, if we
vote &t all? Which of tho four
or five ought we to vote for? For
Mr. Cleveland or for the person
who has no pronounced opinion
for the colored man, only on elec¬
tion day, and at election periods?
It is not social equality we ask
for, for that will take care of itself
but we do ask that we be treated
fairly.
I now appeal to you, dear breth¬
ren, to think before you act, and
do not act so as to engulf us in
, other and more severe difficulties,
into labyrinths from which all of
the future will be unable to extri¬
cate ourselves or our children.
Freedom^ ’and enfranchisement
brings to us the right to act for
ourselves, and if you cannot con¬
sistently vote for Mr. Cleveland
then stay away from the voting
precinct or scratch tho ticket, and
thus give the voting over to those
who have no interest in us but to
use us.
From the day of Crispus Atticua,
who was the first to fall in the
streets of Boston at tho very be¬
aming of the revolutionary war,
and since the blood of our fathers
crimsoned the waters of the Mis¬
sissippi rivor in 1812, ever si; ee, we
have defended our government.
And we have asked for bread, but
instead of bread we have received
a stone.
The time has come for us to act.
and act decidedly.
Y<>urs lor humanity and the race.
John M. Brown.
THE COLORED VOTER.
Our election passed off very
quietly here Wednesday, notwith
standing, some of our boys did
some effective work in behalf of
democracy, not by fraud nor trick¬
ery, but by sound and. indisputable
arguments, There was not a lull
vote, yet, we rolled up a good ma¬
jority for the democratic ticket.
The vote stood; Democracy 136
aud third party 40; making a ma¬
jority of 96 in favor of Democr
We believe fully two thirds of tin.

How any man can deliberately go t-
the polls and vote against h i »
country, against- his neighbors, and
against the party that has stood by
him through all the dark and try¬
ing struggles of the past against
the interest of the South, and wo
almost believe, against his own
convictions ; is more than we can
understand. Can any Southern
man who is a friend to his cotntr.,
a friend to his homo, a friend to
his wife and children, and a friend
to his God, support such measures
as are advocated in tho third party
platform? Where is your man¬
hood? In the rich Southern blood
that once circulated bo freely in
your veins, r.agr ant?
Have you forgotten that you are
a southern man born of Southern
parents, who fought bind and died
for tho freedom you now enjoy,
and which you by your ballot are
preparing to oblitborate forever;
We beg you to think before going
