Embry at St. Lukes Church, Augusta. If Major Black is after the square tiling, why don’t he condemn tho out lagoons action of the heelers at the ( ourt house in Augusta ? II. W. J. Ham proved to be the drawing card that succeeded in getting an audience for Major Black in Au¬ gusta on Wednesday night of last week. The Augusta Tribune has been un¬ tiring in its effoits to expose the frauds that are being perpetrated at the, Court House in that city by illegal register¬ ing. If Populism issue’ll a menace to our country, for Heaven’s sake what is Demoerny, a party that lias done more to destroy the prosperity and progress of our country, than did the late war? The present political contest in this District is to decide whether a fair ballot counts for anything. It is not for the success of cither Black or Wat¬ son, but for a clean ballot. Last Wednesday lightning struck the residence of A. I. Holmes, near Davis boro, Ga. IBs son Will Holmes, was lying on a bed and the lightning played all around it. The house and bed were slightly injured, but no oue was hurt. Mr. Black resigned after the last election because the fraud was too apparent to be hid. llow can he re¬ main a candidate now, when the fraud is just as open and known by all men ? —Augusta Tribune. Rev. II. L. Embry of St Luke’s Church in Augusta preached an able sermon again in that city on lust Sun¬ day night on the corrupt methods being used by the ward heelers iu reg isting illegal voters. There has been an effort made on the part of the goldbugs to side-track the silver question now before the peo¬ ple, but this great question will not down, the people will continue to agitate it until silver is restored to its proper place as the money of the peo¬ ple. This is the day of action. If you wish to T-main under the tyrant yoke of England, support the Democratic candidate for Congress. If you wish to return to the days of America's Independence and for the people to rule, vote for the People's Party can¬ didate for Congress. We would like for any one to point out a single goldbug who is a supporter of Mr. Watson for Congress. Yet Mr. Black has numerous supporters that are anient supporters of the gold staudard. The goldbugs favors Mr. Black because he put himself on re¬ cord when lie voted to repeal the Sherman purchasing act, thereby placing this country on a gold standard. The campaign in this district is warming up to a considerable and “the men who control” the demo cratic party in this district are busy in giviug fheir instructions how to perform nefatious work, in order that the democratic candidate may be elected. Misrepresentations are being made against Mr. Watson and the populist party in order to secure supporters for Mr. Black. But the past record* of the democratic party are enough to dis gust any fair and honest man. The methodsof the “men who control” won’t have the endorsement of re mctable people. THE CAMPAIGN. The State Democratic Executive Committee met in Atlanta on lant Thursday for the purpose of devising means whereby Mr. Black's interest may be furthered. The committee de¬ cided to canvass the leading cities in the State to raise funds in Mr. Black’s behalf, and also decided to send speak¬ ers in this District from different parts of the State to make speeches for Mr. Black. Thusitwilibe seen that tiie batteries of the entire State Demo¬ cracy will lie turned against the Popu¬ lists in this District, lint the Popu¬ lists are not alarmed in the least, ihey are fully prepared for the fray that seems evident before them. It is now claimed by the “men who control” 1 he State Democracy, that the defeat of Mr. Watson in the Tenth this lime will mean the death knell to the Populist party; but such is not the case, ihe truth of the matter is, this is the last struggle of the defunct Democratic party, and after this race is over, th • small remnant left of the Democrats will seek shelter in the Republican camp. The principles that have always characterized the Populists party re¬ main the same to-day, while those of the Democratic party have been so varied tlrat even their most gifu-d statesmen cannot comprehend tiiem. The day of false generalities is a thing of tire past. The people intend to stand by that party that looks to the “greatest good 1 to the greatest number,” and the fundamental principles of t lie People’s Party are founded upon that, and that alone. No doubt the present campaign will arose more enthusiasm and interest that were first anticipated, from the fact, that Major Black and some of his supporters contended lrom the first tlrat there was rto use of a canvas of ihe District, but since the Chairman of the Democratic Executive Coirv mitlce lias taken this matter in hand and decided to send speakers iuto this District, it is safe to predict that the Populist party will s! dl the woods with their gifted and matchless orators in the persons of Watson, Hines,Carter and others. On with the dance. WITHOUT AST JUSTIFICATION. “We do not offer the frauds jrrac tlced by Populists ns justlflcairon for Democratic frauds.”—Augusta Chroni¬ cle. We don’t blame the Chronicle for not attemptiug the imopssible. Be¬ yond a blatant charge of fraud, like the thief bawling “stop thief” to divert attention from himself, no charge of fraud has been made against the Popui lists. Not one single specified iustance of illegal registration by a Populist has been cited. The Chronicle is wine for not offering Populist hands practiced by Populists. But why does not our deaf contem¬ porary say on what grounds it justifies the disgusting frauds now perpetrated by its party in this city. It will not deny that the new registration offices were opened for the sole purpose of facilitating fraud. It does not deny that ail the specified cases of fraud al¬ ready exposed in the Tribune are true. To-day the streets leading to the new registration otlieos are alive with bug¬ gies and carriages hauling the idle, the worthless and the vicious negroes to these offices on by-streets to swell the number of names which shall be voted for Mr. Black by adding fraudulent names to the list. It is fraud, sicken¬ ing, disgustiug and gigantic. On what ground does the Chronicle justify that? Speak out, dear Nancy. The people are curious to know what plea the Fraudocrats will offer in justification of violation every appearance of fair¬ ness and decency.—Augusta Tribuue. Waynesboro True Citizen: A num¬ ber of milch cows have died recently in the vicinity of 1-awtonvillc and Per¬ kins Junction. No one seems to know what the malady is. It appears to af¬ fect the throat most, aud the animals rub themselves very raw under the throat and finally die. The Georgia railroad will soon broad en the guage of the branch of that road that runs from Social Circle to Monroe. ---- From The Birmingham State: Car lisle voted for fiee coinage in February, 18U3 ’ and wa * a full - fled S e(1 goldbug by Au S ust There was evidemly a mi atmosphere about that time and John S ot bil m lhe lc S' The American Tribune, a paper pub lished at Indianapolis, Ind., will be moved to the town to be built by the Western colonist* on the line of Wil cox *nd Irwin counties. P. H. Fitz gerald. the father of the colony, is ed¬ itor and proprietor of the Tribune. THE PRICE OF COTTON. The Savannah News in commet ting upon the address recently issued to the Southern.fat mere by lion, llecton Colton I). y, president of the Southern Growers’Association, has this to saj: ‘• The English buyers are going t< get the cotton for as low a price as they can. In pursuance of that policy t leir agents are making predictions of a crop of 8,000,000 or 0.000.000 bales. They Would p edict over 10,000,Of 0 in all probability if they thought such a pre¬ diction would have any influent- i on the cotton market. “it is prettv generally admitted that the crop is going to be a short one. Even it the weather in the next f mr weeks should be extremely favorable throughout the entire cotton belt, the yield would not be greaty increased beyond what it would be under avenge weather conditions, and there is no good reason for thinking conditions I eitcr than the average will prevail in i he whole cotton belt. “Let the cotton growers act with good judgement in disposing of thflir cotton, and the chances are that they will get 8 cents, and peihaps more Jbr their cotton. There is no reason py they should be in a hurry to maEjet iheir cotton. Most of them have raised abundant food crops, and they are in a position to hold on f > their money crop. They should not p- .nit themselves to be seared by the repotts of the English agents that the crop is going to bt a large one. The reports of such tnei as Mr. Lane arc much more reliable tf in those of “bear”speculalors, whose J le object is to get the cotton at as low; a price as possible.” THE PISTOL HABIT It is impossible to read the news¬ papers without coming to the conclu¬ sion that the pistol habit is almost an epidemic in this country. It is confined to no section, race, Nationality or class. On the same day that we read of a pistol murder iu Tennessee, New York comes to the front with the murder of one brother by another, and the murder of a wife by her husband; all the work of the pistol. \ We hear of the pistol everywhere! The manufacturers and the dealer f must be coining money. It must the biggest iuilustry iu the country. Pistols in the courtroom, pistols in the jury room, pistols in church, pistols iudoor and out, in the barroom and iu my lady’s boudair—pistols, pistols everywhere 1 No wonder we have murders. IIow can a man tote a pistol during this I rtW-wow Weather without using it when his fevered brain reels under the malign influence of the dog star? But it is said that bad men defy the liiw and carry pistols, and thus make it uecessary fof good citizens to arm themselves. This is mistake. All that is necessary is to enforce the law, and enforce it qtrickly and with crush¬ ing severity. If the policemen and detectives would lie half as alert about this one thing as they Sfre about some Very unimportant matters, they would have regiments of pistol toters before the coiirts. We aro not tiflking about any one locality. We are striking at a natioual crime. The hip pocket pistol murders more people in this Country every year than perish in the average Central American or Cnban revolution. In the majority of cases good mtenr are the victims. Under odt present lax sys¬ tem every citizen when he goes down town iu the morning is at the mercy of some excitable fellow who loses his head on account of the weather or some imaginary grievance. Even when the pistol toter dfoe? not make targets of his fellow citizens there is danger. MaDy a man commits suicide because he has a pistAL If he had been unarmed he would have recovered from his depression an® life would have again had charms forBrim. The pistol habit is a bad one prom every point of view, and the rts, the press, the pulpit and public Opin¬ ion should combine together* and smash it.—Constitution.

From the very first of this great political conflict, the Populists have contended that it was a tight of the classes against the masses, aui be a man ever so blind with partizanship he cannot fail to see it hi that way. To take the acts of the present ad¬ ministration and the past Congressi s for half a century, are sufficient proofs of that matter, and if the people ever expect to live under a republican foim of government, the reiiYs of govern¬ ment will have to be taken out of the hands of such men’ as Cleveland, Carlisle, and Sherman, before we ure an independent government again, a thing that our forefathers fought for and succeeded in achieving. But to day we see the tyrant yoke of England around our necks, anil the in¬ dependence that our forefathers de¬ clared fot almost gone. Let every patriotic American arise and declare against English rule, last us be loyal to our country: let us tight for its in¬ dependence as did out forefathers. Let us strive to maintain that independence with all the power that is within* us. Let us ever hold it as a sacred heritage and ne ver surrender its principles to any nation. Mr. B. A. Bass was found murdered ou the streets of Atlanta one day last week. The guilty party that kill¬ ed him has not been apprehended yet. »:k»i»:kss;ss8si CO so J5 “What one Bottle will do.’ . 0 g BROWN'S! ss n •O IRON «• BITTERS •• H s S3 •• Whsl »■« hottls will do —will (lv* •• hearty appetite end lacreaeed ^ dl(cetiaa—will etarl yew ea a cure •• lor dyepepeia—will fllepel nervoue- •• neee and low eplrtta- will cure neu- *• 22 22 raffia chronic and invalid headache.-will en|oy aaw make lile— will Ihe £2 J* H ward ott chllle__ Makes ■ •nd enrich lever.—will poer and ss 22 S® etrengthen Ihin blood—will weak You is women - won't Strong flfl etein your teeth. •• - Ocl the genuine. •• ■a Sill : Itxan tor took mi *. r Vlnrt-hto.
