Not only condemn the nefarious
work of "aid heelers, hut see to it that
they are brought to the bar of justice.
Although Ihe registration list is
closed, yet there is a good deal (if easn

If the business men of Augusta ex
peel to relain the patronage of the
rural districts, they w ill have to taken
the matter in hand and see that falr
ness is done them at the ballot box.
The people throughout this District
have resolved that a few unscrupulous
l ily politicians shall not control the
politics of the District hy methods that
are contrary to law and justice.
The registration books for the special
election that is lo take place in this
District, dosed on yesterday, and now
limy w ill lie turned over to the Regis¬
trars for examination.
Some of the goldbug organs are ad¬
vancing the idea that the gold standard
is the cause ot the advance in the price
of cotton. But any one with a grain
of sense knows better than that.
A free ballot and a fair count is the
great question that now confronts tho
people of Georgia. When the people
declare that they shall have a fair elec¬
tion, then there will be some reason to
declare that this is a free country.
Greene county is soon to vote on tbe
) inhibition question, and it is thought
lliut that county will go for prohibition.
The prohibitionists are making a vigor

It is claimed by the Holiness people
of Macon now, that the recent wreck

A Mr. Bass who was recently found
on one of the streets of Atlanta, mur
tiered, and at the time seemed to be
shrouded in mystery, is about to de¬
velop that detectives were responsible
lor his death. The matter is now be¬
ing thoroughly investigated.
(some o film Democratic papers in
this District are trying to whip their
forces into line with all the false state¬
ments and misrepresentations that a
vile and imaginary mind can gather.
But the better element composing the
Democratic party aiu paying no atten¬
tion lo such appeals.
llott. Hector Line, President of the
Southern Got ton Growcts Association,
has issued another circular to the
farmers advising them to hold their
cotton for better prices, lie has made
a thorough investigation of the present
crop, ami reports it considerably bclow
whai was tirst claimed for it. The
present crop it is said will not exceed
«, 000,000 bales.
She Silver Kuight is the name of a
wet* paper just started at Washington,
1>. C., with Scuator Wm. M. Stewart
as Editor. It is au able paper and de¬
serves the patrouuge of the people. It
is a strong advocate of the People’s
Party, aud handles the silver questiou
in an able and convincing manner.
We will club our paper aud the Silver
Knight together for S1.2C*. Send in
your subscription at once.
Elsewhere we publish resolutions re¬
cently passed by the Richmond Couuty
Alliance, demanding that a fair elec¬
tion be held in Augusta. We endorse
these resolutions aud think every coun¬
ty throughout the District should pass
similar resolutions aud demand that a
fair, square deal be made. The houest
people of Augusta should sec to it that
fairness be done in the coining elec¬
tion. The rural districts throughout
this section are determined to have
fairness if it involves considerable
sacrifices. The politics of Augusta have
been dominated already too long by a
set of men who have no regard for
justice, right or honesty.and unless the
better element of that city take the
matter in hand at once, the comtuer
oial interest of Augusta will suffer.
These are no idle word?, but are plain
!uois.
A PURER SENTIMENT.
The future holds sill success for the
People’s Party in this Slate, The eoc
rupt met htals pi act iced hy "the men
who control” the Democratic party, is
causing the better element composing
(bat partv to become disgusted, and a
general revolt will he the icsult.
square, l.or. dealings in polities will
•min the respect atxl support of all good
people and this has been the aim and
ol.jectof the People’s Patty ever since
it came into existence.
Men who endorse and further cor¬
rupt methods in our political affairs,
will have to be delegated to the rear.
To-day if the J’eople’s Party had its
lights lion, .lames K. Iliues would lie
filling the Gubernatorial chair of Geor¬
gia; and the same methods that Mr.
Black resigned bis seat in Congress,are
the same that placed \V. V. Atkinson
in the Governor's chair. Rut we are
glad to know there is a purer sentinieui
exerting itsell over the people through¬
out this Slate for a cleatiet and purer
ballot. We bail with delight this sen¬
timent and trust it will grow and per
mcat every sectiou throughout the
Union.
The liberties of the people rest in
the ballot, and when these liberties are
taken away, the people become slaves
in a great measure, and are made sub
servent to the will of “the men who
control.” JaA us have a clean ballot,
and let the grand old motto of our
(State “ Wisdom, Justice and Modera¬
tion” prevail.
CARTER AND WATSON.
O 11 last Friday Hon. VV. Y. Carter,
of Hart county, spoke at the Court
House in Thomson. It was Mr. Carter's
first speech in this District, and he
gave the people a splendid speech,
dealing in plain facts and convincing
arguments ou matters pertaining to our
political affairs. He showed himself
to be a man thoroughly informed upon
the issues of the day and conversant
with government affairs. His speech
was highly complimented and appre¬
ciated by those that were fortunate
enough lo hear him.
.ludge Iliues was expected to speak,
hut owing to professional business was
prevented from being present. Mr.
Watson arrived on the noon train from
Wilkersou county, just in time to follow
Mr. Carter. Mi. Watson as usual made
a Hue speech.
The crowd present numbered about
(>00 people, coming principally from the
country.
PROHIBITION ASSOCIATION.
The Georgia •Prohibition Association
will hold its annual convention in At¬
lanta on October (toil), just after the
legislature convenes. A call for the
convention has been sent out by 1 ’resi¬
dent l’ringle of Nundcrsville, and ef¬
forts will be made to secure a large at¬
tendance.
While the Prohibition Association is
not political, it is deeply interested itt
the Bush dispensary bill, which will
have to be passed upon by the legisla¬
ture at its approaching session, and the
Prohibitionists when they meet here
in convention will bring all its influence
to beat in its favor.
Following, is the special end for the
convention :
By order of the officers and members
of the executive committee, a conven¬
tion of the Georgia Prohibition Asso¬
ciation is hereby called to meet in the
city of Atlanta at 10 a. nt. on Wednes¬
day, October 30th uext, at Y. M. C. A.
hall.
The object of this convention will be
to advocate the cause of Prohibition
generally, and the anti-barroom bill
(now pending in the legislature) par¬
ticularly.
Let every county iu the state send
three times as many delegates as it has
members iu the house of represeuta
tives and if no convention is held, the
executive committee of the county can
appoiut the delegates. Ministers ol
the gospel are invited to send one or
more delegates from each church or
charge they serve.
The W. C. T. l\, as well as the
Good Templars, or any local society,
are earnest}- re quested to send dele¬
gates.
An interesting programme will be
published soon aud we promise a great
feast for all who will attend.
The press in the state will confer a
great favor by publishing this call.
C. R. 1’KINOLK,
President Georgia Prohibition Associa¬
tion.
If a man says he wants a fair and
honest election, aud then
ho point out and , protest against
men w
open fraud as “dastanis and bush
whackers who are stabbing him iu the
back,” don't it look like there is a hvp
ocrite somewhere about.—Augusta
Tribune.
Ballot box stuffing must cease. The
honest people intend to have no more
of it.
DEMAND A FAIR ELECTION.
Richmond County Alliance Pass Re¬
solutions Against Fraudulent
Voters.
At th « meeting of the county
Allumce and citizens of Richmond
,oua ‘y. beW ftt ]{e,l ' iew Alliance,
Gracewood, IHchroond county, on hat
u| day, Sept., 7th, 1W*5 to take into
consideration the question of fraurju
leDt wglsiratum as at present b. ing
carried ou in this county, practiced by
paid ward politicians who have no
filter interest in our government save
what money they receive for their
dirty work, which funds, we have all
reason to believe, are furnished by
some of the business men and tnci
eliants of the city, who are also guilty
of aiding and abetting such frauds by
their silence, when if they would raise
their protest against such fraudulent
methods and in favor of a fie; ballot
anil a fair count, the practice would at
once eease, and the making of human
merchandise of worthless men and
boys whose votes can be bought for
10 cents up, which is a crime ngainsi
God anti society’, would at once be pul
a stop to. and the honest will of the
people of this county would triumph
over fraud and coirupliou. Be it
therefore
ltcsolved : That for the sake of har¬
mony and the bringing about a better
feeling between the farmer, the work¬
ingmen, and business men of the city
of Augusta and county of Richmond,
we call on all honest concicntous busi¬
ness men of Augusta to aid us in purg¬
ing the registry list of all illegal names
thereon, and in a demand for a free
ballot and a fair count, thus allowing
the will of the majority of the honest
voters of the lUth Congressional Dis¬
trict to be expressed at the ballot box
Be it.
Resolvefl further : That unless those
with w hom we trade in the City of Au¬
take steps to prevent the repeti¬
tion of the frauds of '!t’2 and ’94, we
pledge ourselves in conjunction with
the farmers of adjoiniug counties to
turn our trade of all,kinds to some
other market which step we take with
reluctance being attached to our loved
city of Augusta.
Resolved. That all papers favor¬
able to an honest election be request¬
ed to publish this and all Alliances be
earnestly asked to help us in this figl t
of the people against ward heelers
backed up by corrupt politicians.

Sudden Death of Mr. William A.
Morgan.
W. A. Morgan, a well-known travel¬
ing man, was found dead in his bed at
the Marshall house in Millcdgeville oti
