Ctt. BEARCT REPLIES |
TO DR. DREWRY. '
T
Borrow Call-. I wrote an article in
1 behalf of Mr. Berner and Dr. Drewry re
» plied to ft, to t|>e controversy between he
and I is of his seeking, not mlhe.
The doctor now realizes the position he
placed himself in as a special triend of
' Gov. Boynton and j H fighting Gov. Bojn- ]
ton’s friend, and wLl.ee to escape under
> the plea that “he has neither time or incli
, nation to engage in a newspaper contro-
i verty." I will now dismiss you, doctor, •
with my bleaslng.
The doctor says his “article was written
' without any desire to prejudice any one (
’ against Col. Berner or Monroe county.'. ,
’ If that is true why did the doctor write |
this: “Ishall never forget who wrung 3
from Spalding county the pleasure of hav- 1
i ing Gov. Boynton made governor.’’ j
The doctor says I made it a point of |
leaving out that part which refers to Mon- ,
roe’s action when Judge Boynton was a
1 candidate fifteen years ago. Thedoctoria
• mistaken in that, also. I mid: “The (
’ doctor say ■ I was mistaken about Monroe
I always supporting the candidate of Spald
ing. I had forgotten the exact status of
• that matter (the Boynton race he was
[ speaking of). Let it be as the doctor says,
. that the Cabaness taction was on top in
, that race, but remember that the brave
young Berner .true to true to
Boynton, went down, etc. Don’t let it be
’ said that Cabaness’a mistake is still to
’ follow Berper in the midst of the friends
I of his friend, etc. If the doctor had been
i only intending to establish history, would
he not have accepted my statement and
been satisfied? Didn’t he find fitult with
9 me again in order to bring out another
’ piece of history?
‘ The doctor thinks my. article a pitiftil
• failure; but notwithstanding his lack of
time and inclination did he not feel that it
would be better to add a little more fuel
to the tiame he had kindled against Berner
and Monroe before closing his controver-
r sy?
} It seems that the Hon. Milton Candler
f was a candidate against Judge Stewart in
6 the 70s, I think. There was a lock-up in
II the convention. Monroe voted, if I re
? member correctly, ' for Judge Stewart a
good many times, but also voted for Cand
ler.
The doctor also wants to state there is
I more of the same sort, reiering,' I suppose,
to the time when Nat Hammond was a
candidate against Judge Stewart. Mr.
Hammond had been born and raised in
Monroe cotfhty and carried it, just as
I Judge Stewart carried Clayton county—
r because ft was his native county,
r While the doctor harps upon these
- thing?, he says nothing of the time when
. Monroe supported Judge Stewart, Judge
Boynton, Judge Speer and Judge Hunt for
the judge’s place, and Judge Beck for con
e gross, by an overwhelming majority, and
j others. He is looking for the other side of
the question. What for? Not to preju
dice the people of Spalding against Mon
roe or Col. Boynton, as he says, but to
help Candler.
According to the doctor’s history, it ap-
B pears that every time Monroe refused to
stand by Spalding she got left. In the
• light of that history, is ft wise for us, as a
j part of the Flint circuit and the sixth con
gressional district, to break up the present
relations with Monroe and go back to those
the doctor complains of?
THE doctor as a born wit.
The doctor reads me out of the lists,of
the born wits. But he certainly places
himself on it by the position he assumes.
Let me show you a picture, Illustrating
the doctor’s position: Here is a beautiful
landscape. On the right of it is a long
line of men representing RobL L. Berner.
On the left is a long line of men repre
senting Col. Candler.
Among the Berner men I find one
standing like Eaul of old, with head above
the rest. He is a noble old Boman, easily
distinguished everywhere by his pleasant
countenance, his fine appearance and his
wonderful self possession. It is easy to see
I that it is our Boynton.
Among the Candler men we find Dr.
i Drewry, also of pleasant mien and hand
some appearance. The doctor seems to be
in trouble, however, about his friend
Boynton. He hates to see him in the Ber
ner ranks. Fear is also on his counte
nance, for he is afraid some of the judge’s
; friends will rally about him there,
r The picture lam painting is one of the
» I new kind—a moving picture—for I see
I Dr. Drewry waving a picture of Boynton i
j and calling on the braves to aid him in
1 avenging a wrong that had been done 15
years to his friend by one Cabaness and
his faction in Monroe. The doctor seems
now to be keeping one eye on Boynton to
see what effect his little speech will have.
Boynton is moving now. Listen, boys,
tire old man, eloquent, who never forgot a
iriend, is speaking. He says:
“Friend Drewry, don’t strike Berner on
• my account in this race. He is the only
oire of those candidates who stood by me
. in 185*3. Don’t trot out that occasion and
e hit the only one who was true to me
jon that occasion. Besides, my dear
Drewry, we all forgave Cabaness in 1862,
and he helped me since and we are all
good friends now.” I cloje the tube with
the judge still speaking.
Now, doctor, look on that pictunfe it
shows you to be a born wit of magnifi
cent proportions. Ha! ha! ba! Don’t be
witty any mort. Help Boynton’s friend,
fi So for aa personalities are concerned,
> doctor, I bear you no malice, and intend
you do ofimce. A little nonsense now
and then is relished by the wisest not.
