Official s= Organ of Berrien Connty, I*. T. AI.LKN, Editor. Ncwh ami View*. Atlonto began her “Soldiers’ Home” campuign at the Georgia Cliautniiqua week before last. Wo voter can serve the Third par ty Inside the democratic ranks. Tho two is aa wide apart ae tho east is from the west. Terrell county has olocted Stevens delegatus to the congressional con Tcntlon by a majority of 870. It is Stevens’homo comity, / Tho fruit crop of sontjrwcst Geor- gia will bo larger thayu first sup posed. Thu late freeze did not re suit as seriously aa/rat nppmUr-tvkd.' Tho conspiracy in which Tom Watson is engaged is damnable enough to make tho departed spirit of Aaron Burr “turn greon with envy.” Merchants' week in Savannah this May promises to surpass thoso of former years in tho brilliuiioy and appropriateness of its festivities. Thanks to tho committee for an in vitation. Tho Albany Wows and Advortisor editors say they wunt a railroad that will give thorn tho Atlanta Con stitution for broakfuat. Groat Scott! whut a morbid uppoilto thoso follows must have I Dr. I. II. Hand, of Bilker oounty, and Mr. G. W. Forrester, of Thom as county, nro tho icaoud district 4 members of tho stato oxooutlve coin inittoe of tlio so-called people’s party in Georgia. Itopublloims delight to hear of a third party movement in tho soiith, for the very simple reasons that it cannot win tho presidency, but may embarrass tho domooinoy.—Molluo Enterprise. The Waycrosa Headlight pays ils respects to the Herald of that oily; says its neighbor Is devoid both of religion and democratic polities. Tliaro is no doubt tho Herald is in a bad way politically. Hypocrisy is the nioanost of sins. If your feelings are in aooord with tho third purty, serve it; if with the democratic party, then servo it; but, for heaven's sake, don’t undertake to bon political hypocrite Tho Albany News ami Advertiser says “Merchant C'ommor makes a good president” for the Central liail- roucl and Banking Company, Is this mercantile punctuation murk u different kind of a dot from otlior men? Tom Watson 1ms nothing to lose by tho dofeat of the deinoorutio par ty; Georgia has. Watson has noth ing to gain by tho suooess of the dmnoeruoy; Georgia has. Which will tho farmers support, Watson or Georgia? The Thomasvllle Economist .says there is no* such political organiza tion in the second congressional dis trict of Georgia ns tlm people's party. Will tho Economist toll us who is G. W. Forrester, of Cairo, and what political party does ho represent? It tins been suggested and it is quite probable that Mr. Dan W. llountrce, in consideration of his services in annulling tho loose of the Central railroad and banking com pany to tho lliohmond and Danville will he tendered a place us associate counsel-with headquarters at Atlan ta. The Christian Index, of Atlauto, organ of tho Baptist denomination in Georgia, has changed its form, and ill it present shape-eight pages, oov- eir columns to tho page—Is ono of the handsomest papers, typographic ally, In tho south. It is worthy of the utmost support of all Georgia 1.1 Volume Two. To-day the Gazsttk enters upon tho second year of its existence, and is a hale, hearty bantling. For the past twelve months it has labored as best it could, under existing unfav orable circumstances, for the general welfare of the city of Tifton und contiguous territory and especially that portion of it known us Berrien connty. While the editor is aware he has not pleased everybody, couldn’t have done it if he bod tried, he feels grati fied in the fact that the paper is rec ognized os ono of tho very best week lies of the state by both press and people. The lending people of this section pronounce it the model coun try newspaper of southern Georgia. In maintaining the high standard the Gazette has taken in the news paper world it hue cost the editor niuny hours of toil and anxiety, and a great many more dollars than has been paid In to the paper. The editor frankly admits ho is largely responsi ble for this by his leniency to his patrons and he will continue to be us lenient ns he possibly can; the stringency of the times demand it. To tho citizens of Tifton and im mediate MCiruVj the editor look* pri marily for a support, for they are receiving tho lion’s share of the ben efit acortiing from tho paper’s publi cation. Many subscriptions and somo advertisements expired with the Inst Issue. Those should be re- nowed at onco and effort should be made to increaso the number of its patrons—its ciroulution and influ ence. Tho policy of the paper novor Ims been and will never bo hidden be hind a bnshcl--that policy is to do good mid csohsw evil. While the editor clings tenaciously to his viows of right ho does not propOso to fall out with and abuse those whose God- given right it is to disagree with him. Arguments mid not abuse will win a brother. In concluding this article tl|o ed itor desires to impress upon Ills pa trons tho foot tie is in need of every dollar that is duo him. Ho needs it to pay his debts and to continue im proving the paper, and trusts all who can will make immediate payment- The single amounts arc small to eaoli one lint tho aggregate is much to the paper.

The following is a review of the St. Lon is convention and its offspring the third party—oy one who was there and caught the inspiration of the event. Hon. Charles L. Moses went to tho St. Louis convention, wuz present at all its sessions, and comes book to his state and people and declares nnto them the foots of the aroh-conspiracy agreed upon on that memorable occasion. Whose re port will the people believe, that of Mr. Moses, a native Georgian and life-long democrat or Mr. Post, renegade republican of donbtfnl na tivity? Wo shall see: Before closing, however, I wish to note a few impressions I received of the convention. Never before was there a convention of more discord ant elements—and vet there was ap parent harmony. Four-fifths of the men wanted women suffrage; but to secure the south they waived its present consideration. Sido by side sat the prohibitionist und the snloon- ist. The religious fmiuiio, witli bis divine mission to reform the world held friendly communion witli the man who despises all law, both liu man and divine. Ou one seat sat the modest southern fanner, too timid to raise [vis vufee In the tumul tuous assembly, while on the obuir in front of him stood a woman howling to the chairman for recog nition. Hero might be seen tin high tariff advocate from Pennsyl vanin telling a knot of farmers they ought to quit talking tariff, that wliut they need is more money. IIo woll knows Hint, under the tariff law, it will puss through their pockets into his. In another placoyou could boo tho kid-gloved “professional re former” indoctrinating the “horny- handed sou of toil” in his glorious theories. On the stage there is dramatio scone. The cz-federals have dug up onoe more that old en sanguined garment, which has nl ready been buried p thousand times and are calling upon tho confederate Veterans to join in ono more funeral The yankee, however, 1ms shrewdly stipulated that Johnny Jtcb is to pay for the tours, and bear the funeral expenses. He gets “turkey,” while Johnny, us usiiul, gets “buzzard.” But the convention is gone. Wliut sliul I tho harvest be? As I said be fore, Georgia has been doomed by these conspirators. They rely for success upon tlm desperation of debt and tho hopelessness of despair that exists among our people. lint, oven iu the mmlners of impatience, can ivc not remember Georgia? Oan wo not remombor that “United we stand, divided we fall?” Shull we who have withstood tho prejudices and power of the combined world, shall we now turn and destroy one another to the delectation of onr enemies?

Onr county oonteinjiorary, tlio Atlul News, apologises for having pubUshed tlm 8t. Louis platform, pension plank am) nil, ns it really and positively was adopted. Ujion whoso ovitlcnoo done tho Nows decide it lute been unjust in thus publish ing that platform? It oun’t bo on the testimony of Hon. L. F. Livingston, president of the State Alliance, Hon. W. A. Wil son, vice-president of the Stato Alli ance, or Hon. Olios. I* Moses, a prominent alllnnccniun, who were at tho St. Louis conference and who say emphatically that not only was this pension plank mutlo a part of tlio platform hut also a plank deolnr- ing the baby party in favor of uni vcrsal suffrage—a plank equally ns odious to southern pcoplo us the in famous pension plunk. It can’t be upon tho evidence of Mr. Gunn, secretary of the Randolph oounty ulliuuoo and editor of tlio Cutlibert Liberal-Kutorprise, who, to satisfy himself upon this subject, took the trouble to procure copies of some twenty odd different third par ty papers published ill Missouri, Iowa and other western states and he found that every one of the pa pers published these planks m a part of the platform. Bro. Gunn is *uor- on (lily satisfied that these resitutions were adopted as a part of the plat form, tuid has so published it in ids paper. Hie evidence is overwhelming that the leaders of the new party a.e guilty of the grossest double-dcMing with tbe people. These planks wore added to the platform for the pur pose of catching vote* and are being used only wliwo it/is supposed they will prove the biggest bait. Let the people be not deemed I was beseiged by the allied armies of i D ' ' - ‘ Greece. Despairing after ton years of capturing the city the Greeks built it huge wooden horse filled with armed men and pretended to retire from tho city. Simon, a Green, ap peared within the walls. He told tho Trojans that although he had been a Greek, he had come to enst his fortunes in Troy, ito toltl the moil also that the horse was the gift of the gods, ami persuaded thorn to pull down tile walls and bring it into the heart of the citv. That night Troy was destroyed, Tlio proud oity that for ten years had withstood the power of Greece with her thousand ships was destroyed by tlio lying liiis of 8inion. I warn tho people against this people’s party. It is pregnant with unseen dangers. Beware of ex-re- pnbli cans and missionaries from onr enemies who are persuading us to pull down the walls of demoorooy. Charles L. Moses. K. I'RTKHW,., M. B.
