TO BE IMi’ED TUESDAY, SKI’T. 16.
Thi proprietor of the Kkoordeb hav-
log been many times soliclteil during the
psst year to Isboo a dally popor, and ho
tiering that the time lma come when
Ameriena can giro a tiring support to
an«b a paper, baa concluded to make a
canvas* of the city, and if sufficient sup
port ia guaranteed the Reoobdeii will be
liaried as a Daily on and after Tuesday,
Sept. 10th, being itaned every morning
except Monday.
The paper will be a aix column folio,
the present alas ef the Tri-Weekly, and
the price will he fifty Cents per month,
payable' monthly. While it will not con
tain fall Associated Tress telegraphic re
ports, we expect to make arrangements
by wbioh alt erents of special importance
will be sent as special telegrams.
In taking this step we are fully aware
Of tbe additional expense and labor in
volved, end have no hope of realising any
immediate proOt from tbo venlnrc. All
weeek ia sufficient support to pay Ita
Way. We believe that the publication of
• daily psper in Amsricus will lie of great
beueBt to tbe ally in a number of ways.
It wilt prove of great convenience io our
merchant*, of internt b> the people gen
erally, and serre to giro our city a greater
reputation abroad for enterprise and pros
perity. But we donotinlend to advsnce
any argument In favor of it. Our propo
sition Is purely a business one. If tbe
people of Ameriont went e daily psper,
ws srs prepared to giro them one; if they
do not, we do not|care to force one upon
them.
Ourctnvasaer will call upon onr peo
ple during the week to receive their sub
scriptions sod advertisements, sml we
hope all will give him a prompt answer
—yet or no—as the time is limited nnd
he cannot enter into arguments.
In csss lbs Daily is alarted, tire Tri-
Weekly will be discontiaucd.
• The Montezuma Record is pit 1 -
ticulnrly severe-upon the notion ot
the recent senatorial convention
held in this city. It says it has
found but one man in Mncon coun
ty who does not condemn the no
tion of the convention, and that
man was the delegate from Macon
who acted with the Sumter delega
tion. The Record even goes so far
as to say that it does "not believe
that it would be a breach oFdomo-
cratio principles for Mr. Murray to
make the race for senator, consid
ering the way he was treated in the
nominating convention at Amori-
eus.” If this is the way the peo
ple of Macon county feel, it was
peculiarly unfortunate that one ol
the delegates representing them
should have contributed the nec
essary half vote to bring about a
state of things they so strongly
condemn.
Tbe prohibition party of Georgia
has deoided to put a prohibition
electoral ticket in the field. A call
has been issued for a convention of
tbe temperance |>eoplo. The con
vention will be held in Use Good
Templars’ Hall, Atlanta, on Satur
day, the 13th Inst., and will he call
ed to older at 10 o'clock a. in.
The Republican publishes, as an
item or news, the proceedings of
the senatorial convention of 1817.
From a perusal of this ancient
news it would scorn that the Demo
cracy of this distriot were not up
to the standard in those days, us
we fall to find any notice of the
convention adopting a resolution
pledging tbo candidates and their
friends to support the nominee.
Tbe Dakota farmers are having a
bad year in the midst of good crops.
They say it costs ono bushel of
wheat to send three to market, nnd
It costa 1,000 feet ol lumber to get
3,000 from Minnesota. These are
only general'results. The details
of their transportation problems
are still more exasperating. Some
day their grain will go down the
Mtssouri river and their lumber
will go up it.
HKI’ltKHENTATI VE FOR WEBSTER.
I’rkstox Qa., Sepl. 4th, 1884.
After earnest nnd continued per
suasion, the lion. I). H. Harrell,
has at last consented to enter the
race for Representative of Web
ster County, subject to nomina
tion by the Democratic party. It
should he the aim of every good
oitizen ol the county to use his
utmost endeavors to scenic his
rumination, us lie is beyond con
troversy one of the best nnd most
influential uien^jmt only in tills,
but any other county in the Stale
of Georgia. Judge Harrell was
nominated and elected to the Stule
Constitutional Convention of 1877,
from our county, and all are oom
polled to admit that whenever Ids
voice was raised or his vote cast
it was cast on the side of economy,
justice, and right. Tho beloved
and honored old veteran, Robt.
H. Toombs, to use his own lan
guage, says that Dave Harrell was
one of the most useful and influen
tial members of that convention,
nnd Kx-Governoi Jenkins, the
president of that convention, after
its adjournment complimented him
in tlie highest terms, and said that
be wns indebted to Mr. Harrell
for much information anil assist
anee, and would over remember
hint as a warm friend, and true to
his country’s welfare. Let the
good citizens of Webster County
turn out on the 20lh inst. in their
respective districts and nominate
him for the legislature, and we and
our children will ever have cause
to lie prou d of it.
Wkiister County.
The business announcement of
this paper, headed “To Our Pet
rolls,” seems to be just as well
suited to the patrons of the Grinin
Sun as it docs to those of the Rec
ord.—Montezuma Record.
As the “business announcement”
consisted in a very strong appeal
to the delinquent subscribers to
walk up to the captain's oflice and
settle, wc presume it would be well
suited to a majority of the papers
in Georgia.
Secretary of the Treasury Folger
died at his home iu Geneva, N. V.,
ou Thursday afternoon, and the
National treasury is now without a
head, Assistant Secretary French
being in Europe.
There seems to have appeared
a “Judas Iscariot” m tho Americua
senatorial convention.—Montezu

will elect a democrat to congress.
This result was inevitable. No
party led by such a demagogue
and trickster as Malione can long
escape defeat when it Is resolutely
resisted.
