Livingston, president of tbe state alli ance; Mr. Harry C. Brown, of the 8onthem Alliance Fanner, and the only original Larry Gantt This is a combi nation that is sure to draw, and on the oocMlon of this rally Americus will be thronged as she never was before. The alliance l meh of this section are taking a decided interest in the matter, ji,' - and the day of the rally, July 14 or July 15, which has not yet been deter- ed, will be one of tile grandest days ever celebrated in Southwest Georgia, and the celebration will be In full keep ing with the day. The alllancemen of Sumter and neighboring counties will join forces in seeing wbat they can do to get up ono of the grandest occasions ever witnessed ln Georgia. Arrangements are being mado for a big barbeme, the like of which has nev er been heard of beforo. Hundreds of heads of sleek cattle and well fed pork ers will go to the block to furnish a meal for the immense throng of human ity which is expected to crowd down upon Americus on that occasion. There will bo plenty to feed everybody, and President Polk and the congressman from Kansas will bo mado Jo seo what a felicitous affair a Georgia barbecue Is. Like the Georgia melon, the Georgia barbecue is best of all, and it does seem that meat cooks better under the bright skies of Sumter county than it'docs any where else In tbe world. The commlttco of arrangements has not reached any definite decision In the matter yet, but It Is presumed that the barbecue will be held at the Dell, which is the prettiest place in Georgia for an outing. Both the Southwestern and the Savan nah, Americus it Montgomery roads will run excursion trains on that day, a very low rato being named for the trip. The result of this will' be that a crowd of from ten to twenty thousand will be ln Amerious on tbe day appoint ed for this rally. There te not an al- llanceman ln this entire section who wouldn't walk, werp It accessary to see Messrs. Polk and Slmpron, thirty miles to accomplish that end, Sumter county alllancemen are active ly at work, and the day of this celebra tion will witness Amerious thoroughly crowded with thousands of tho best men to be fonnd on this side of this terrestial sphere called the world. Plenty of barbecue and other refresh es ' ments will be provtd-id and all will feast and make merry. ' Sockless Jerry will be the big drawing card and the people will flock here by the thousands to hear him speak. It he should not say a word there will be plenty more material to work op and plenty of speakers to entertain the vast crowd which Is sure to come. Americus welcomes these prominent alllancemen, and the celebration will be one to fit the occasion. . Co^ Robert T.
