u
ABOUT THAT RALLY.
AMERICUS SHOULD EXTEND HER
VISITORS A WELCOME ,
"Which Will be at Once Genuine and Hearty
—The Connell Leads off InAhe Matter-
Let the People Follow With Well
Filled Baskets.
The grand alliance rally which comes
off next Tuesday is all the talk just
now.
A crowd of at least ten, If not twenty,
thousand is expected to congregate in
Americus that day as this is the rallying
point for all South Georgia. The peo-
plo will literally pour Into town from
all points along the railroads leading
heie, while many will come in buggies
and wagons from Sumter and the coun
ties which are not accessible by tail.
Now that the proposed barbecue has
been dispensed with on account of the
time it would take up there is a chance
for Americus to simply outdo herself in
regard to hospitality and convince the
alllancemen that tlioy are holding their
rally in the home of their friends. It is
a fact known of all that Americus will
be glad to have this largo assemblage
of alliancemen and that she will extend
a most hearty welcome to the farmers of
South Georgia and to the. noted men
who are to address them in Americus on
the day of the grand rally.
It is generally understood that the far
mers will bring baskets along from homo
and that tbero will be a great basket
dinner. Every citizen of Americus, es
pecially every merchant, should send a
well filled basket to help feed thoso who
will bo hero. Too much cannot be done
for these peoplo, for after all they are
the mainstay of Americus, and offevery
other town in the country for that mat
ter. Amorlcus should do her lull share
toward entertaining her visitors on that
occasion and there Is much that she can
do. There is but little room for those
who know Americus and AmericuB peo
ple to doubt that they will help in every
way they can to mako the day a grand
success.
The council has set the ball rolling,
and the people will keep it in motion.
A special committeo from tho coun
cil, consisting of Aldermen Williams,
Logan and Wheatley has been appointed
to act in concert with the special com
mittee from the Sumter County Alliance
is making arrangements for the rally.
The joint committee has decided to
have the exercises of the day held in the
grove just south of the Southwestern
depot. The council committee has let
the contract for a spacious speakers’
stand, which will be substantially built
and neatly covered, and for scats enough
to seat several thousand peoplo. Work
on these will bo commenced in ample
time for them to be ready by the day of
the rally. This committee will also see
that plenty of ice and water is furnished
to cool off the people and quench' their
-thirst.
These things will be the gift of the
City at Americus.
Now the people should be beginning
to get rejdy to do something on their
own account. It might be well to hold
a meeting at some place ’ that may be
agreed upon to arrange upon some plan
for the people to pursue in regard to
the matter. Other cities where the
rallies are to be held have adopted this
plan, and Americus should extend the
alliahcemen and their loaders as hearty
a welcome as they will receive any
where. Whether the meeting is held or
not, however, that welcome can be ex
tended and the people of Americus and
the merchants can prepare baskets to
help swell the dinner that will be spread
that day.
Let everybody see what they can do
in this matter, and no one will lose any
thing by it. Let’s greet Americus’ vis
itors with a hearty and sincere welcome
—a gennine Americus welcome.

Not the Right Word.
"No.” said Bertha sadly, “ ‘pain’
doesn’t express what I suffer at these
times—it is simply ‘anguish!’ I know I
ought to consult a physician, but I
dread it so! I can’t bring myself to do
it. Then, too, ‘female diseases’ always
seemed so indelicato to me, I can’t bear
to have any one know or speak of mine.”
“Yes, dear,” answered Edith, “but
don’t you know you can bo cured with
out going to a physician? Sond to any
druggist for n bottle of Dr. Pierce’s Fa
vorite Prescription, and take it, and I
warrant you’ll feel hotter in a very few
days.”
The manufacturers warrant the medi
cine, too. Thoy guarantee it to do ex
actly what it claims, viz: to cure leucor-
rhea, painful irregularities, excessive
flowing, prolapsus, inflammation or
ulceration of tbo uterus, and the innu
merable other “female weaknesses.” It
so Btrengtaens and builds up the uter
ine system and nerves that worn-out,
run-down wives and mothers feel rejuve
nated after taking it, and they are saved
the painful omburrassment and expense
of a surgical examination and a tedious,
tiresome treatment
To Have e Re-Union.
Thero will bo a re-union of Tlgo An
derson's brigade at Marietta July 21.
All the survivors are asked to go, as it
may be the last time they shall meet be

re-union will be the first since Appo

Anderson’s brigado was composod of
the Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Eleventh
and Fifty-Ninth Georgia; the First
Georgia Regulars, the First Kentucky
and Rylander’s Battalion.
The Savannah Morning News of yes
terday had this to say of the Savannah
Americus & Montgomery road:
Iron for the Chattahoocbea river
bridge of fthe Savannah, Americus &
Montgomery railroad is being shipped
through Savannah almost daily. Three
carloads went through last night. This
bridge will be finished within a few
weeks, and then the Savannah, Araerl
cus & Montgomery road will bo a com
plete line to Montgomery, Ala., giving
310 miles.
As soon as this work is done it is ex
pocted that the contractors and men
will turn their attention this way and
begin building to Savannah, either inde
pendently or to meet another road
About sovonty-five miles will have to be
built to accomplish this, but there is no
doubt that the Savannah, Americus &
Montgomery will come in. The road is
after an outlet to the sea, and Savannah
is really tho only practicable point to
build to.
It is nsserted on good authority that
the Middle Georgia & Atlantic will be
built to a connection with the Savannah
Americus & Montgomery, nnd givo it
terminal rights on Hutchinson’s Island
This may account for the present activl
ty of the promoters of the Middle Geor
gia & Atlantic. Seventy-five miles of
tills road must he built to hold Hutch
inson’s Island.
It may De quite a while before a suffi-
cient sum of money can be raised to
carry the projected road to completion
and it would bo a matter of considerable
convenience and profit all around to
form a connecting arm to the Savannah,
Americus & Montgomery until such
time os other arrangements can be
mado.
The Savannah, Americus & Montgom
ery runs through one of the finest agri
cultural and naval stores regions in tho
south. With its line completed into
Montgomery and an opening to the sea
by way of Savannah, a great quantity of
cotton will bo brought here for shipment
north. The benefits that would accrue
to Savannah by the combination spoken
of would bo of great importance. The
road is now doing an immense carrying
trade In naval stores, having in factmore
business in this particular line than it
can handle.
The Savannah, Americus & Montgom
ery is a paying institution that has come
to stay. It has the best of financial
backing, both at homo and abroad, and
it is the intention of the corporation to
have its own line of steamers to the
north as soon as it can arrange independ
ent connections with the sea.

Queen Isabolla, of Spain, pawned her

DOUGLASS AND HIS SECRET AH T.
The New York Sun publishes inform
ation from Hayti regarding the action of
our Minister Fred Douglass and his pri
vate secretary, a mulatto named Bassett,
that certainly is worthy of investiga
tion by the state department. It ap
pears that tho negro Bassett is really
the representative of this government,
as be makes Douglass do what he de
sires to be done, and it further appears
that be is a scoundrel who should be
promptly bounced out of the service of
the government which he betrays and
disgraces whenever an opportunity
offers.
The Sun’s informant who has been a
resident of Port au Prince for a num
ber of years, charges that the failure of
the United States to secure the Mole St.
Nicholas for a coaling station was due to
Bassett, who accepts bribes from and
yields to the wishes of Hypolite in all
negotiations between the United States
and Hayti, and the result is he lives in
high style and squanders large sums of
money at the gambling table. On the
occasion of the recent butchery of citi
zens at Porte au Prince, Minister Doug
lass locked himself in his resilience in a
great state of fright, although it is stated
that he could have put a stop to the
massacre had ho entered a protest in the
name of the United States, and put him
self in tho absence of tho other minis
ters, at the head of the consular corps.
The meeting that was finally called by
the Spanish consul Was not attendeu by
Douglass, hut by Bassett, who claimed to
represent the United States, and at the
meeting Bassett said that the action of
Hypolite in shooting foreigners and es
pecially white men was right and proper,
and that he would do nothing wrong if
he were to shoot, every white man in
Pert au Prince, bocauso the people
lynched negroes in the United States,
and in a land where the colored race was
mastor they had the right to kill as
many whites as possible.
Tlie statement was made in the pres
ence of Mr. Arthur Croswell, tho attor
ney for the British and Spanish lega
tions, who was also present, and the rc
suit was it put a stop to the progress of
the meeting, and the consuls determined
to act separately and each according to
his own judgment. About this time the
slaughter commenced in the streets, and
when a French merchant named
Rigaud was shot to death because he
failed to salute jbody of passing troops,
the chancellor of the French legation
donned Ills official uniform and, ascend
ing the steps of one of the buildings on
the main street, announced that if an
other French citizen was killed he would
arm the French colony and avenge their
deaths. It is stated that this nervy
action put an end to tho butchery and
saved tho lives, perhaps, of all the whites
in tho town, as the negro soldiery of
Hypolite were drunk with the blood
they had shed and were ripe for any
kind of deviltry.
This is the story of the conduct of
Douglass and his secretary, and as tlio
Sun gets its information from a reputa
ble source, the matter s hould certainly
receive the attention of the administra
tion and appoint some man as minister
to Hayti who will uphold the dignity of
this government and give protection to
those who appeal to him for it.

A STRANGE STORY.
The eccentricities of fate are curious
ly and painfully illustrated in the expe
rience of a Mr. Y’arrlngton, who has
naturally become very much disheart
ened.
He was at work in Johnstown when
the big dam broke. The flood washed
away all his earthly possessions and one
of his children was drowned.(I
He then moved to Arizona and was
getting along successfully, when another
fiood carried away everything he had
and drowned another child.
Once more he removed, and he fixed
upon a spot in the Indian Territory,
where he thought he was beyond the
reach of disaster. But a third time a
fiood-swept through the town and he
was beggared. Moreover, he lost a third
child by drowning.
He is almost crazed with grief at these
repeated bereavements and losses.
SOME PREDICTIONS.
The TiMES-RECORDEiUmakes the fol
lowing predictions; cut them out and
paste them up for future reference.
L. F. Livingston will be the next gov
ernor of Georgia.
D. C. N. Burkhalter will be the next
state senator from this district.
Both of Sumter’s representatives in
the next house will be alliancemen.
The lottcryites,” says the New Delta,
“aro pleading with the people to keep
tho lottery out of politics. They are
also begging that a man’s position on
tho lottery question be not taken into
consideration in selecting candidates for
office." This is a very good indication
that the lotteryltcs are hurt.
Amer Ben Ali, the murderer of
‘Shakespeare,” will probably go to
state’s prison for life. Yet there are
scores of men and women wlro are
murdering Shapkspcarc” on the stage
every season and somehow escape.
In the interior districts of California
the mercury went up to 103 degrees in
the shade some weeks ago, and it is
said that it hasn’t gone down since then
single peg. They are all great “stay-
| ers" out Id California anyway.
AN INTERESTING QUESTION'
A writer in the July number of the
North American Review asks, with
every appearance of seriousness, the in
teresting question “Is it wrong to lie?”
To do the writer justice at the outset, it
should be said that she—for it is a
woman—does not question that it is
wrong to lie under an ordinary tempta
tion, but wishes to be told whether it is
possible that there should ever be cir
cumstances warranting the telling of an
untruth or even the disregard of an oath. " . hl * professional services to thi
She asks the question and does not at- {ry. P Office uTnew’ Murphey’bufidin

occasional to be excusable or even J* Office and residence, next housetop .
praiseworthy. In support of this infer- Huntington, Church street. feh?"., A
ential opinion of hers, she cites the case
of an English royal personage who has
been quite conspicuous of late aud who,
being called as a witness iu a divorce
case, where the telling of the truth
would have blasted the reputation of a
woman, is said to have “perjured him
self like a gentleman.” Again, she
speaks of|a woman of au older time, who
was almost as well known in Jericho as
is tlie hero of the foregoing story in
London—ono Rahab. It will he remem
bered that Iialiab took the messengers of
the Israelites into her house and told a
very bare faced lie for their protection.
This earned her immediate reward and
tlie veneration of the chosen people ever
after. She also cites the case of the fu
gitive slaves who were passed over the
underground road, and of the man}
evasions and direct denials of the truth
which aided their escape.
It is simply another indication
of tlie extent to which the latitude of
thought which has always existed is
‘imling its outlet by virtue of a new lati
tude of speech. It is wrong to lie, dis
honorable to lie, and cowardly to lie,
yet lies have been told by very good
people in all ages when the temptation
was strong enough and are told to-day
with equal frequency, but this does not
make the practice right and tho trans
gressor must settle his misdeed with his
own conscience. It is a bit startlinjg to
see this subject so coolly discussed,
and many of those who cannot look
into their own records and say that they
have always been truthful will be in
clined to say that the old plan of indi-
viduaT.responsibiltty for the individual
offense is the best one.

GAG LAW,
The president of the South Carolina
Farmer’s Alliance has officially forbid
den Gov. Tillman and Lecturer Terrell
to debate in public their differences in
the sub-treasury bill.
This is wrong. If tne sub-treasury
bill is or is not to become the law of the
land, all those voters, who by reason of
their avocations are excluded from the
secret caucuses of the alliance lodge
rooms, are entitled to hear its merits
discussed by its strongest advocates, and
its daws shown by its opponents iij the
alliance ranks.
The Augusta Chronicle says:
We confess to some alarm for the welfare
of our country and the rights and liberties of
our people, when free men are ordered to
debate in* secret, great questions of public
policy affecting the rights of all the peo
ple.
Why should “gag law” be enforced
in this discussion? Two of the most
prominent and able alliancemen in the
country propose to have a joint debate
on the sub-treasury .scheme, a subject
updn which every body needs all the
light they can get, and have set July 24
as the time, when up rises the state
president, and demands that the dis
cussion be held with closed doors.
Will some allianceman explain why
the public should not have the benedt
of a discussion that will probably show
that the sub-treasury bill should or
Bhould not become the law of the land,
a law by which millions of people ex
cluded from alliance lodges are to be
governed?
Fred Douglass says that he wasn’t
frightened by the outbreak in Hayti—
and in cases of this kind we must, of
course, take a man’s word for it.
