The Atlnntu Journal Biiifgitts that
"nomebody ought to write a book on
‘The Hide ami Fall of the Weaver
boom in (Jeorgio.' ”
Weaver and Lcitaeurc receiving no
tnore royal reception in North Caro
lina than they did in Georgia. He
Wan glad to get out of Georgia ami
lie'll Ixj glad to leave North Carolina.
The Honthcrn Alliance Farmer
ticwnpa[ier is reported in straight
ened oircninstances and will proba
bly Blraigliten itself out in the om-
bruee* of death oil November 7tli, if
not earlier, 'l’lio God of intelligence,
virtue and temperance bo praised !
The Gajskttr congratulates tlie
Atluntn Herald iijioii the ncqiiiuilion
of Mr. J. 0. McMicluiol aa its husi-
ness manager. He is a ripo newspa
per man, having an experience of
more than twenty-llvo years active
i In the various departments of
newspaper work. ~~
All Hint is necessary to make every
farm in Rout.ii Georgia t he homo of a
happy and contented family is a few
years of intelligent and earnest labor.
Let our farmer friends look around
them and consider if this is not true;
their successful neighbors are living
examples of the truth of this asser
tion.
The Gazkttk supports the demo
cratic) party in this campaign because
it is right, anil because it represents
till) best interests of nil the people—
It represents Intelligence, virtue ami
temiHiranea ns primary principles,
looking to tile leal Hi and happiness
of the |H>ople. Header, don’t forget
tills!
, Georgia is still contributing to the
list of dumonrutio stump speakers in
the north ui.d west, Inc latest being
Hon: John Temple Graves. There
was a ipeoiul demand for Ids services
on the stump in New York state,
uml ho is now there pouring the oil
of conciliation upon the troubled
waters as only lie can.
To Illustrate the claiming procliv
ities of the third party an. exchange
mentions this striking example: They
claim theirs to lie the old time dem
ocratic platform of Thomas Jeffer
son; it demands government oivner
ship of railroads, a condition tiiat.
good old Tom Jefferson never dream
ed of as lie died beforo there was
siioli a thing as a railroad or locomo
tive.
Ho you indorse Weaver and his
record of oppression in Tennessee! 1
Ho you sanction female suffrage us
taught hy Mrs. Mary K. In'iiuo? Ho
yon accept the ruinous pension ap
propriations its advocated by “Uy
olono" Davis? If not you must volo
the straight democratic ticket; the
third mid republican parties have
united in favor of these miserahlu
heresies.
Labor Coiiinilssloner I’eok, of New
York, lias gotten himself in trouble
hy burning the record* to cover the
falsity of his ro|>o?t concerning the
effect of the McKinley tariff on wages.
His sin has foiled him out, and the
erstwhile triumphant yells of the ro
publican leaders over what they
hoped was a vindication of their pro
tective jxilicy have subsided into
groans of disappointment mid olia
grin. "Truth is mighty and will
prevail."
The republican congressional con
vention of the second district mot In
Albany yesterday. The early hour
at which the Gazkttk goes to press
prevent* it giving the convention's
notion, hut it is safe to say that il
broke up in a low, as the republican
household of the district seem to bo
unalterably divided on ttio question
of fusion with the third.party, A
largo majority of'the colored contin
gent say "that unless they can got a
itmlghUmt republican they had rath
er take a good democrat whom the
best element of their white fellow-
citizens, whom they know, arc sup
porting."
Next Wednesday is the state elec
tion. Vote for Northen and the full
state ticket; vote for Moore for the
senate and Knight for the house. The
G azettk has naught to say aguiust the
private characters of the third party
candidates for the senute and house—
Messrs. Bneiul and Huberts—but the
people cannot afford to approve their
political positions in this cumpuign
simply for past friendship. Indeed,
they do not expect you todoit. They
will think more of you if you sliull
stund linn to your convictions of
right mid vote with your party.
There arc principles involved in the
c«m|iaigii which should he esteemed
higher than mere jicrsonal friendship.
The principles of intelligence, virtue
and tcmiieruncc have been thrown
into the political scales as against
the abstract theories relativo to hind,
transportation and finance.

llo Karly ItUurn. Dr. J. G. Goodman.
Stop unit Think.
Tins is the Inst talk the Uaxettk
can have with its readers before the
slate election. There is much of
weal or woe depending upon the re
suit of Unit election to the people of
Georgia, lienee the extra earnestness
of this appeal to them to act in the
fear of God when they go to the
-poHg- next Wednesday and deposit
their votes in the ballot-box will be
pardoned.
The people of Berrien, Colquitt,
i p
Ihn whole world and then Iihu tint dys-
lions of the government have gone aa
fur in fosteiing the cause of temper
ance ns our wisest statesmen think
it prudent to go in that direction.
Third partyism insists that the
questions of land, transportation and
finance are of vast more Importance
to the people than these questions of
intelligence, virtue and temperance.
The Gazettk repudiates and denies
the proposition; but, admitting it to
be true, fcllow-oitizuns, can yon ask
any purty to do more towards the re
clamation of the public domain to
tho use of actnul settlers, the govern
ment control of railroads (govern-
nent ownership of railroads is too
impractical u question to discuss here)
and to correct the financial system of
tiic government than the democratic
purty, witli which you have ufliliuled
ever since the war, lius showed itself
willing to do should it be entrusted
with tiis full power of tho govern
ment? J)o candid with yourselves
and answer this question: is u third
|iurty necessary to tiic accomplish
ment of these ends? You cun but
uuswer, no.
'Then why diyido and lcavo the
democratic party for one tlmt has
neither power nor prestige, nor can
over hope to Imve? Why not como
buck to the old purty ami help to
destroy that purty which is the au
thor of all the unfair and oppressive
legislation under which you liavo
groaned foi the past thirty years, and
from the effects of which you are
now sighing for relief?
Think on these things nnd then
vjte us your hotter impulses dictate
is to your interest, und the interest of
the country at large.
Irwin ami Worth counties have long
since repudiated the principles of
tho republican purty—as not in har
mony with their Interests, as inimical
to the progress of religion, morality,
education and material prosperity, as
not in uccord with the spirit and ad
vancemeiit of our free institutions—
some of them, good and true men,
have |»<rmittod lliemselves to be led
off after the uncertain principles of
third pnriyism. Tho Gazkttk asks
this class of its readers to stop ami
think about this matter for a fmv
minutes calmly and without, psejit-
dloe.
Ho you favor free education of tho
people? Ho you cherish education
as absolutely necessary, ami a para
mount policy, to the strength, safety
and |ierpetuuiioii of the government?
If you do, you must vote for the
democratic party which represents
tills doctrine. Hon. Win. J, North
en, the democratic candidate for gov
ernor is tlie very embodiment of the
idea of educating tho people. Ha
lias udlocated such policy in nearly
every county in the state sincu ho
was oalled to the giilieriintorial chair.
His lirst official act almost was to
ward strengthening tlie educational
system of Georgia— he cal led a niuii
to he slate school commissioner from
tho ranks of the state’s foremost ed
ucators, a limn whose whole soul,
mind uml strength uro enlisted in
tho work of education. In conjunc
tion witli his chosen lieutenant, Com-
nilssionur 8. D. Ilrndwell, lie has done
more than any governor Georgia has
had since the war in enthusing the
people to eduoato their ohildrcn and
to restore their cotilldrncc in the
public school system of tiic state.
Are you going to throw nsidc such a
mini for Mr. Pock who, in obedience
to orders from third party headquar
ters, is uml lias boon dumb on this
subject, and who represents a puity
tlmt declares in Its platform that the
intolliguiioo of the people is a second
ary matter? God forbid!
Again, do you esteem the morality
nnd virtue of the peopio os necessary
adjuncts to their happiness and pros
perity? Then you must vote for the
demojratio party, the only party
which represents this principle.
Third partyism declares virtue to be a
secondary question; the dcroooratio
party insists that it is of prime im
portance to tho growth and progress
of UoorgU as a state, and Ims an
swered ovary demand of her people
for protection tu institutions estab
lished to foster and teach morality
ami virtue to all the pcoplu since it
ciinie into power in tho state.
Third-partyism says the question
of temperance Is secondary, while
tho democratic party deohuva It to ho
primary. Democratic) admiiilitrv
