Americas, On., Oct. 18tb, 1800.
BE ON GUARD. ...
In late years so little opposition
has been made to the Democratic
candidate for Congress from the
Third Congressional District that
Democrats tuke It for granted that
the nominee will be elected. This
may be true to a great extent. But
indications this year are different,
and for this reason Thr Recorder
points to a few slgnllloant facts
tbat should rouse every white voter
in the District.
The policy of the Republican par
ty. nnder the leadership of Tom
Reed, Is, If the Republicans haven't
got a good working majority in
Congress, to make ouo. When tb.
list Congress met the Republicans
had a bare majority. They imme
diately called up the contested oas
es and proceeded to eeat the con
testing Republicans, In one in
stance overthrowing a majority of
18,000. This program will be fol
lowed In the next Congress, If tbe
Republicans can ' organise the
House.
For tbe Brst time in many years
Republican candidates have been
put out In every district In Georgia,
and in several districts they are
makings bold, open light. In’the
others, and this applies to the Third,
they are doing their work In a quiet,
sooret manner. The Republican
"barrel" has been tapped, and
thousands of dollara have been sent
Into Georgia, to be need in defeat
ing Democratic candidates for Con.
gress.
Tub Recorder believes, without
a doubt, and it has good reasons for
suoh belief, that qrilM a earn of this
money has been sent Into this dis
trict to defeat Hon.' 0. F. Crisp and
elect the negro Gibson. Tom Reed
would give more to defeat Hr. Crisp
than any man l» the Democratic
party, for the simple reason that
■ Mr, Reed Is afraid of Hr. Crisp, the
latter being the only man In Con
gress who has worsted the Speaker
Inhjs arbitrary rulings.
The money that haajbeen sent into
tbe Third Is being welt handled,
and If the Republicans can poll a;
good vote, they will have no best
tancy In unseating Hr. Crisp,
should they be able to (mister a
Jorlty in the next Congress, anises
Mr. Crisp has suoh an overwhelm
ing majority as to defy even Tom
Reed’e arbitrary rules. This ma
jority Hr. Crisp will• get
Democrats will only turn out and
vote.
Do you want the Third tq be rep
resented by a negro?
It not, let every Democrat be at
the polls the first Taesdfy in Mo>
vember.
UNHEARD OF,
Tbe il iiiins of abuse tbat the
Gordo: ..-gausare dally burling at
the Governor’s opponents, and also
at those who are not his npponeuta
nor his supporters,Is somethlnguc*
preceJentcd In Georgia. Gov.
Gordon's military record Is paraded
and shouted from oDe end of (lie
State to tbe otlior. It is said he Is
being vilified and traduced, though
The Recorder has sifted hun
dreds of exchanger and'' not a line
of tbat kind can be fonnd.
The feet Is that tho Governor has
surrounded bimsolf by a set of dis
contented politicians who were nev
er known to bo satisfied with any
thing, and who seem tomakolta
particular point to always try and
defeat the will of the people.
Borne months ago Gov. Gordon
said that “ho would be elected
Senator, even if one hundred of tbe
one hundred and thirty-seven coun
ties bad been Instructed against
him." In other words, he consid
ered himself invincible. And so
be was—at that time. The Gover
nor considered himself stronger
than any man. any sot of men, or
any party in Georgia, and conso
nantly he felt perfectly safe in mab
Ing his (now) lamous anti-sub
treasury speech.
#No party or organixatloif likes to
be told it has no influence; that its
plans are unpracticablo; and when
tbe Governor had gone that far the
Alliance people concluded they
would show him just what it could
do. As a consequenoe there has
been a most wonderful change iu
the tone of the Governor’s speeches.
He no . longer offers “something
better” for tbe aub-treasury bill,
and Indeed, avoids that subject as
hs would a snake.
As for tbe Alliance, It goes se
renely along, and sub and oonnty
Alliances continue to pass resolu
tions opposing Gordon.
While it haa been charged re
peatedly that a olique controlled
the political machinery of state
politics, and while It may bavo
been true, yet no man baa had the
audacity to boast that he could be
elected even if three-fourths of tbe
people were against him, without
raising a veritable hornet’s nest
around bis ears. Yet that is what
Gov. Gordon has doue.’
Tho Democrats seem to have the
Republicans on the run In tbe West.
It is barely possible that the name
of the future Henator from Georgia
will be given to the public to mor
row morning.
Established 180
Mncou Is the Mecca of |s.lltlelnus
to-day, but no one ever heard of
tho Htate Fair being held In that
city but what It rained.
ThaHaeon Telegraph aoams to
baafrald that the Aliianoe will be
come Independents and cause
break up in tho Democratic party.
The only danger to tho Democratio
party that Thr Rroobdrr can see
is that which will come from pro-
fiwaliranl politicians and office seek
ers, who oaanot control tho
asee. A stogie Instance where
I tlllsasvTin not stood by tbs
• nominee baa yet to bo
r knowledge.
STRAIGHT FROM THE SHOULDER.
“Borne of our esteemed contem
poraries claim that Tbe Constitu
tion laoppoalngGov. Gordon. And
yet If Tho Constitution bad oppos
ed Norwood and Bacon aa it la now
opposing Gordon, those gentlemen
would havs bad a walk-over some
years ago. In our opinion, Govern
or Gordon himself and soma of
those who stand oloae to him are
hie moet powerful opponents.”
The above Is a significant item
which appeared In the editorial
columns of tbd Constitution yester
day. There is “more truth than
poetry” in It. Four yeare ago MsJ
Bacon was practically certa'ln of
being nominated und elected Gov
ernor. Then, suddenly, Henry
Grady boieted Gordon’s name in
tho Constitution. The fight that
followed, and tba victory - who'
well kuowu.
For soma reason, beat known to
itaslf, tbe Constitution la content
to lot Gov. Gordon doiile own fight
ing this year. That the Conatttu
tlon haa a perfect right to support
or not support Gordon uoooo oan
deny, and yet souio people think
because It supported Gordon before,
tho Constitution should do so now.
The Constitution did not tight nor
did it support Gov. Gordon befor*
hit sub-treasury ipeeehranif te'ts
following tbe same coarse now.
Tub Recorder, knows, of con rae,
that the Constitution Is perfectly
capable of fighting Ha owu battles,
but It believes that a newspaper
baa Juat aa much right to change Its
policy or IU' opinions aa an Individ
ual. * -lll»
