Ben Tillman has been nominated
by a farmers' convention, not the
Fanners’Alliance, for Governor of
South Carolina.
Mr. J. T. Eason, of Coldwater,
Miss., was in the city yesterday. It
is said that he Is looking about with
a view to investing in Amerlcus
property.
Mr. Claude X. Bennett, corres
ponded of the Atlanta Journal,
bought three Iota in Richland late
ly. Who says it does not pay to be
connected with a newspaper?
From the Savannah Times one
would judge that Savannah might
yet have a candidate for Governor,
as it is already advocating holding
the convention to nominate at a
later day than usual.
The Tax Receivers of the State
are entering a very vigorous pro
test against belngcompelled to take
the agricultural, mechanical and
other statistics without extra pay.
It 1b u big job and should be paid
for.
In another column we publish a
call for a convention of Northern
men who are now citizens of Geor
gia, to meet June 18th, in Doaglas-
■ville, Ga. The call Is issued by
Northern raised residents of that
section.
The Hawkinsvllle Dispatch and
News says all towns lose trade by
railroads cutting off their territory.
So far Amerlcus has not noticed
any trade drifting away on account
of railroads getting too close to it.
The fact is, the closer they come
the better. And in citing J,aGrauge
as a town which Is being built up
by manufactories, the Dispatch and
News might have not gone so far
from home to find a very worthy
example—but modesty forbids our
mentioning the name of said town.
WITH THE ALLIANCE.
That the Georgia press is in full
sympathy with the Alliance move
meut there Is no doubt. The press
almost as a unit upholds the princi
ples of the Alliance, and It only re
mained for the editors to get to
gether to give expression to their
views, which they did In tho fol
lowing resolutions, passed at the'r
annual meeting luSavanuahonthe
25th. Mr. Larry Gantt moved to
adopt them, and they received an
unanimous vote:
Whereas, Wc, members of the
Georgia Press Association in con
vention assembled, look with pleas
ure upon any and every movement
calculated to enhance the prosperi
ty of our agricultural community
and relieve our struggling farmers
from the wrongs of ihe Iniquitous
and oppressive tariff, the despotism
of trusts, extortioners and the dan
gerous Influence of a combined cap
ital and
Whereas, We consider the organ
ization of the Farmers’ Alliauce a
movement calculated to further
this great end and placo this worthy
and honored class of our people in a
position they can demand tholr
rights,and by united effort assist the
Democratic party in defeating the
nujust and lnlqultousdeslgns of the
Republicans, which party Is grind
ing the tolling masses into powder,
that a favored few may accumulate
unreasonable fortunes; and
Whereas, We watch with de
light the wonderful growth of the
Farmer’s Alliance, as we see it
gathering into an army of voters,
not only the yeomanry cf the Houth
hut of the great grain growing
States of the Wegt. We look upon
the Alliance as an educator of the
people as to the oppression Inflicted
upon them by the Republican party,
and to whom they have so long and
patiently submitted; therefore be it
Resolved, lirst, That this body,
representing, as it does, the Press
of Georgia, looks upon the Farmers’
Alliance as a friend and co-worker
with them in their efforts to rescue
our people from the oppressions of
monopolies and protected indus
tries.
Resolved, second, That this con
vention pledges the Farmers’ Alli
ance its earnest and hearty support
in all of its efforts to better the con
dition of, and elevate our agricul
tural element, aid bids this noble
organization godspeed in the great
work it has undertaken.
Resolved third, That we know
the farmers of our country to be the
most conservative people on earth,
and feel that they will not use any
power they may possess or acquire
to the injury or the detriment of
any other class of our people.
MR. NORTHEN’S CARD.
In the last Issue of the Cuthbert
Liberal, astrong Alliance paper, ap
peared the following card:
MrEditor: In your last issueyou
quote from the Sparta Ishmaeli
the following statement: “The A
Bailee should not commit Itself to
the ludrlcrous folly of Col. Living
ston’s truck patch currency." You
then say: “If he (the Ishraaelite)
expects to aid Col. Northen'scatidi
dacy for the gubernatorial nomina
tion, such flings as the above will
not do it.”
To show you the relation between
the Ishmaelite and myself, I quote
the following from the editorial
page of tlm' paper: “Now as to Mr
Northern The Ishmaelite is not
his orgau aH the Banner-Watchman
assumes. It does not know his
views on the subject. It does not
consult him or auy other mau be
fore taking position on public ques
tions.”
You then asked an expression
from me. In answer to an inquiry,
publicly expressed In the Alliance
Farmer, as to how I stood on the
question of currency, I teplied:
“Upon tile policy outlined by tile
National Alliance.” I was, as you
state, a member of the.St. Louis con
vention, and I think I understand,
fully, the policy adopted at that
meeting. The President of the Geor
gia Slate Alliauce, In the interview
reported in the Constitution to
which you refer, I think distinctly
nnd clearly sets forth that policy.
In speaking of the sub-treasury
plan, he said: "I don't want to say
tho Alliance people is wedded to
that bill—something of that kind—
something that will give an effect
ive currency to handle the business
of the coun'ry without depression
or encouraging corners and monopo
lies. I am perfectly willing, If Con
gress thinks some other plan to in
crease the currency will be betier,
provided the people control it."
This is my understanding of tho
policy adopted by the National Al
liance. Under it, every alliance-
man is committed to an unqualified
demand for some radical change in
our monetary system that will bring
full and speedy relief to depressed
agriculture. No man is, absolutely,
committed to any fixed plan by
which that relief must come.
The sub-treasury plan alter much
discussion, has been* submitted to
Congress by tho St. Louis conven
tion, as the basis for enactment. If
I should be asked to advocate the
sub-treasury piau, to the exclusion
of the consideration aud the accept-
atice of any other plan of relief, I
would respectfully deeliue to do it.
So very important do I consider the
necessity for some radical change
in our monetary system, which will
relieve the wide-spread depression
that has come upon Americun agri
culture, that I am in hearty accord
with the resolution recently intro
duced by Senator Voorhees, "to lay
aside all discussion and considera
tion of mere party issues and to
give prompt and immediate atten
tion to the preparation and adoption
of such measures as are required
for the relief of the farmers and the
over-taxed aud uuder-puld laborers
of the United States."
When this discussion and inves-
tigatio i shall be had, nnd through
It a remedy reached that will dis
tribute evenly the burdens of gov
ernment and effectually take the
farmers from the clutches of specu
lators, ^monopolists aud trusts, I
shall bo glad to accept that remedy,
if it be righteous, national and com
plete. W. J. Northn.
In commenting on the above the
Liberal says:
We publish to-day a card from
Hon. W. J. Northun In reply to
some strictures of the Liberal upon
the Ishmaellte’s fling at “Livings-
THE OLD MAKES THE NEW-
From the Atlanta Constitution.
The speeches made at the recent
banquent of the Southern Society,
in New York, which will most in
terest the reader, are those of John
C, Calhoun, the president, and John
Temple Graves, the orator of the
occasion.
The speech of Mr. Calhoun, con
sidering his official position, com
mends it as a model of good sense,
good taste and good rhetoric. So
much praise has been bestowed
upon the effort of Mr. Graves, as to
make further compliment super
fluous. The name of Mr. Calhoun
might suggest his relationship to
the great Car diniau of Ibe -ame
name; aud indeed it is generally
known that he is one of his grand
sons, hut is not so well known that
Mr. Graves is the great-grandson of
his brother William.
Tlie distinction these two gentle
men have won, together with each
other of the same lineage, suggests
that the descendants of the states
men and orators of the old Houth
will sustain nnd maiutaiu the repu
tatlou of their ancestors.
Indeed, that same taleut, ambi
tion and enterprise they possessed,
nnd that made the fame and for
tune of the old Houth, have de
scended to their posterity, and in
time will make the new South just
as distinguished and prosperous
The North has argued that because
tlie old South did not have! large
cities, and was deficient in com
merce and manufactures, that
Southerners lacked energy and en
terprise, wiiereas the truth was,
their then bent interest was to make
agriculture their principal indus
try. If the citizens of the North
could have beep transferred to the
South, they would have pursued
the same policy. It was the differ
ence iu soil, climate and products
that characterized the two sections,
and not tho difference in the na
tures of the people.
The nbolitiou of slavery has nec
essarily produced a change in the
policy of the South. Agriculture,
that was the safest and most remu
nerative of Southern industries,
became not only less remunerative
hut even hazardous. Then the
planter had money to lend to the
merchant. Now the merchnnt
lends to the planter. Then country
life wus more enjcyable than city
life. Now the cities are preferred
to tho couutry. Then there were
few mortgages on country land.
Sdw there are many, indeed, judg
ing from the number of mortgages
on farm lands, not only in the
South, but nearly everywhere in the
United States, agriculture, that was
once the most remunerative of all
industries, Is now the least. A po
litical, financial aud economic
system, which puts agriculture at
this disadvantage, must be wrong.
For agriculture is the foundation of
all wealth, aud without which there
enn be no prosperity.
Southerners seeiug this, have
given their attention to the develop
ment of the mineral resources of
the South, mainly those of coal and

There is no duplicity in Col. North
ern’s na ,- ire.
He Is not a self-appointed candid
ate for the gubernatorial nomination
He is not intruding lilmself or hlB
views upon the public. But when
called upon for them he is ready to
express them. He is pre-eminently
a man, or hns thus far shown him
self to he. It is hardly probable
that after a long life of strict integ
rity he will now stoop to the meth
ods of the demagogue to secure pol
itical preferment.
A fight is brewing in Macon coun
ty on the question of the change of
tlie court house from Oglethorpe to
Montezuma. The Citizen of Ogle
thorpe went for the Record, - of
Montezuma, and in He last issue,
though Editor Christopher was
away, the Record handled the Citi
zen without gloves. Personal
newspaper fights, as the Record
says, have nothing to with the re
moval, nml no man should blame a
paper for backing up its town, for
that is part of it business. Let
the questiop he brought to a vote,
and let the vote settle it.
It 1b said that Hon. Thomas
Oliver, of Oglethorpe, the author of
the famous Olive bill, will not he a
candidate for re-election. This 1b
a matter of deep regret. Col. Olive

Smithvllle is laboring under the
delusion that she may be able to

the Sumter Alliance, and has been

Amerlcus men, by $5,000 donation,
and its location here is a certainty.

of the new. It is to be hoped, also,
that tlie profits of agriculture will
so increase that, under the new sys
tem, it may become as remunerative
as under the old. When this is so,
added to the other increase of
wealth, the South will again be not
only prosperous but more powerful;
und it will be the sous and grand
sons, aud more remote descendants
of the grand men of the old South,
who will be eutitled to the credit.
As Southerners iu tlie past have
distinguished themselves as states
men, as orators, as soldiers and as
planters, so will they in tho future
distinguish themselves in restoring
the South to her old position of
wealth, power, aud honor.

The Ability to Ilnur l’aln
Is the test of fortitude among the Indian
tribes. But we defy any Cherokee, Sioux
or Camanche to endure the twinges of
rheumatism without wincing. These, In
deed, are slight at first, but grow In inten
sity until they become unbearable. No
malady Is more obstinate In Its maturity
thsn that which gives rise to them. The
more need, then, of attacking it at the
outset. Foremost among remedies for it is
nostetter’s Stomach Bitters, safer and In
ti nitely more effective thin colchicum,
veratrum and mix vomica, all remedies
which might prove destructive of life in a
sightly excessive dose. Mineral depu-
rents, also, when not positively mischiev
ous, are far inferior iu remedial power to
this salutary botanic medicine. It entirely
expels from the blood the acrid impurities
which originate the disease, and enriches
as well as cleunses it. Constipation, liver
complaint, dyspepsia, anu other ailments
also give way to It. ;
Hon. Pat. Walah replies in full to
Mr. Livingstone’s charge against

right to oppose as Mr. Livingstone
has to favor it.
