Arthur G. Sedgwick contributes n
pungent review of “The Copyright

lieli, the contesting delegate from
Utah, innkes, from the nnti-Mor

Ill this issuo we publish a letter
from Americiis to the Atlanta
l\nt-Appeal, giving the situation
frsin the writer's standpoint, of
|Hililicn! atliiirs in tliis congression
al district. The writer is a gentle
man of shrewd observation, is ev
ideully'iin old liaud at the pen,and
wishes to mould public opinion,
living n comparative stranger, we
arcjnot.well enough acquainted with
tile political ufliiirs of this district
to pass judgment upon the views
of tlie Past-Appeal correspondent,
and therefore give them for wlmt
they aro worth. v
The l’ilte County News gives
some sensible advice on tlie sub
ject of Americans producing their
own vegetables instead of import
ing them. Why need the people
of tills eountry buy their Irish po
tatoes across tlie waters when they
can raise them ut a less cost ill
their own native land ? That, peo
ple must be most prosperous who
produce for themselves tlie articles
they conisume, especially when
they have lands well adapted to
such productions, and the sooner
this fact is appreciated the better
it will be for those interested.
Correspondence Post-Appeal.
Americus, Oa., Feu. 17 “What
nbout politics us regards tlie Con
gressional outlook in the Third?”
asked your correspondent of a
prominent citizen iicre to-day.
“Oil, tlie election is rather too
remote for tlmt question to bo agi
tated ns yet.”
“Hoiv is tlie Liberal movement
in this section? Hus that party
many udiicrcuts in the district?”
“Well, I am one of the ‘organiz
ed,’ lint I will be frank to say,
witli some regret, that there arc not
a few who have grown weary of
tlie repented defeats in presiden
tial elections, sick of the contempt
witli which the Democracy is look
ed upon at the North, and disgust
ed with the silly nnd often unfair
methods practiced at home, ami
are ri,.e lor a change.''
••Suppose some competent and
good man should lie run on the
Liberal platform us a candidate lor*
Congressional honors, would lie be
likely to command much of a fol
lowing?”
“I believe lie would. Most oi
the colored people would he sure
to vote for Jiim. and I believe he
might reasonably expect support
from a respectable number of while
voters who have heretofore voted
with the ‘organized’ Democracy.”-
“Who will probably be the can
didate put forward ns the Demo
cratic nominee?”
“There have been several men
tioned. The names of Judge i’ute
and Col. Kibliuu, of Huwkinsville,
and Allen Fort and Judge Crisp,
of Americiis, lm\e been suggested
by their respective friends,”
“Hut which of these do you
the contemplated road from here
to Eastman, or the Air-Line, which
was once suggested from Savan
nah to Montgomery, passing
through Amcricus, they still confi
dently look forward to some other
competing line.
think will rcully he the candidate?”
The chances, I believe, are in
luvor of Judge Crisp.”
Wlmt are you going to do witli
Gen. Cook, your present member?
Will lie be retired?”
I don’t think lie will offer for
another re-election, as iic is now
serving his third or fourth term.
It is thought and hoped that lie
will now come down and use his in
fluence in hcliulf of Judge Crisp,
who, you know, was formerly his
law partner. 1 believe this will be
tlie slate.”
Hut bow will tliis ticket lie re
garded by tlie counties cast of
Flint river? Don’t tlie people
over there claim tlmt they arc en
titled to the next congressman?”
“Ob, yes ! They will make some
flglit, to be sure. Hut you remem
ber they lmvo heretofore put up
Col. Kibbcc as tlieir man, and !.v
will run no race at ull. They
haven’t an abler mail on tlieir side
of tlie river, although Judge Fate
is an honest, clever fellow, lie lacks
lie ability of Col. Kibbcc. There
fore it is quite likely we shall lmvo
to furnish Gen. Cook's successor,
and J udge Crisp is our best chance,
(or Allen Fort lias nlcndy tried
ami failed. Indeed there lias al
ready come a call from I'ulaski
county for Crisp, and 1 believe the
llawkinsvillc Dispatch will sup-
Itlin ”
port him.
“Will not the Hawkiijsville News
antagonize the Dispatch, and favor
some oilier man ?”
“I am not prepared to answer
lint question, lint would not lie
surprised if the two papers oppose
eneli other.”
“You think, then, there is apt to
lie a lively race and division in the
Democratic ranks?”
“1 anticipate all active campaign,
and to tell tlie truth, I apprehend
tlmt we will lie somewhat divided,
for iinfortiiimtly tlie old party is be
coming wore and more demoralized
cry year.”
From tills interview it will lie
seen tlmt tlie future of the new Lib-
si party looks bright and cheer
ful, even in tliis section, where “or
ganization,” caucuses and nomina
tions have held such swa.v. There
is evidently much disaffection
springing up in the solid old Third,
where Gen. Phil. Cook lias manag
ed for several terms to manipulate
tlie machine so successfully in his
own bclmlf. Why it is so, I con
fess I do not see, h|il tlie counties
cast and west of Flint river are di
vided in tlieir sentiments, mid each
side wants to furnish the man to
UEUUIXU THE QUESTION.
If the Americus Recorder can
show us tlmt cotton ties would sell
in this country for less without
protection than with it, we might
admit tlmt the tariff goes into the
pockets of the manufacturers; and
still we should ask, “Isn’t it belter
for capital to remain in this coun
try than to go abroad ?— Warren-
tan Clipper.
There is very little use in an
swering the Clipper, when it thus
begs tlie question, for wiien we at
tempt to show the Clipper, as we
did liefore, that a protective tariff
puts money into the pockets of tlie
maiiulheturers instead of the public
treasury, we are met witli tbcqueK-
tion, “isn’t it better for tlie capi
tal to remain in this country than
go abroud f" To tliis latter ques
tion wc would answer tlmt if capi
tal is to be kept in this country on
ly by massing it in tlie hands of a
few men, and allowing those men
to rob the balance of the communi
ty, we can see no particular benefit
to the people generally in having it
remain in this country. If tlie
Clipper had put its question in this
shape—“Isn't it lietter to bo robbed
by an American than Englishman?”
it would have made its meaning
plainer, for that is wlmt it amounts
to, and Rro. Shivers virtually
admits that protection tariff is rub
bery.
there are in Georgia twice as many
readers of newspapers as there
were two years ago. The value of
a newspaper is uncalcuable. It' is
both news gutherer and teacher,
and it is impossible for any indi
vidual to keep ordinary informed
without its aid. Tlmt man is false
to bis family and himself who docs
not secure for bis home the bene
fits arising from tlie regular visits
of a good newspaper.”

The bourbon Democracy of
Georgia, as represented by its lead
ing journals, not only stands in tlie
way of immigration by reason of
notorious proscription practiced
for political reasons, but preaciies
know-iiotliingism,between the lines,
certainly, but none the less reada
ble to intelligent “importations.”
Wlmt Georgia would have been
but for tlie money and brains im
ported into it is something these
lar-secing individuals probably
never stop to inquire. Tlie immi
gration lias benefited tlie State in
the past and is highly desirable in
the future, need be considered in
no wise a reflection oil native bom
citizens. The slate of tilings exist
in every State in tlie Union, and
those tlmt throw open their doors
widest to the would-be citizen are
those tlmt show tlie largest need
of prosperity.—Atlanta I’ost-Ap-
peal.
Tlie llourhoii Know-Xoitliing, as
the Appeal is pleased to call them,
have done ull -that there lias been
done to invite immigration to tlie
Stale. They have freed tlie State
from plundering carpet-bag offi
cials, brought order out of clmos,
reduced tlie public debt, establish-
cd free schools, inaugurated pub
lic improvements, and made Goor-
ia a desirable place in which to
live. They have extended a cor
dial invitation to’ the people of
other States to come and help them
develop tlieir wonderful resources,
and supplemented tlie invitation
with a cordial welcome to all who
have come among them. Could
tlie Liberals, whom tlie Appeal
represents, have done more? If
tlie Appeal hopes to induce immi
gration by offering to place in of
fice tlie immigrants, wc shall have
tlie same class ol immigration that
we Imd at tlie close of the war, and
it will be followed by tlie same re
sults.
