HENRI COUNT! WEEKLY,
BY C. M. SPEER & CO.
. jpMM Ornct, 23 £. / Witchui Sr.
THE OFFICIAL ORGAN OF HENRY COUNTY.
WEEKLY CIRCULATION, 1600.
Entered at the Poet OfSce, McDonough. Georgia,
aa second class mall matter.
C. Nl. SPEER, EdKor.
I)oos His Explanation Kj plain ?
We are in receipt of a letter from
Brother B. N. Miller, Secretary of the
Spalding county Alliance, which we
publish as he requests, but to illustrate
the different frames of mind in which
he seemed to have been when he wrote
the first and second letters we will in
tioducc the parallel column. lie says
the first letter was not intended for
publication, but merely to inform the
Henry county Alliance why no com
mittee was not appointed to meet them.
It is certain that lie must have felt
somewhat agrieved at the action of
the Spalding county Alliance by the
manner in which ho opeke of Col.
Searcy.
We feel that in publishing Bro. Mil
ler’s letter we betrayed no trust reposed
for the tenor of the letter shows that
the matter should have been ventilat
ed. as the editor of this paper was made
chairman of a committee of three Alii
ancemen to report the happenings of
such matters and things that might
transpire, touching the interests of the
Alliancemeu in the . r >th Congressional
District. As an Alliancenian we would
have done less than our duty to have
been in possession of information, whote
a brother says permission ‘‘was utterly
refused to allow a committee to be ap
pointed to confer with you.” We re
train flora further comment, and will
say that these remarks and compari
sons are given to demonstrate to Alli
ancemeu of the sth Congressional Dis
trict that we have done what we con
ceived to be right. And as the last
letter of Bro. Miller would place us in
an unfair light if we failed lo show
why we had made the previous publi
cation, we are necessitated to publish
his letters and let the public judge if a
change has not came o’er the spirit of
his former determination :
it Sbn'ny Sinn, Ga ,
June 16, IH!MI,
Dear Sir and Bro.:
The communication
.(sent you iv.is only in
tended to inform as
.to the reason why a
committee Imd not
Been appointed to
confer with your
county committee,
which courtesy
seemed to demand,
and by no means in
deapargeinent of Col.
W. E. H. Searcy, who
is a gentleman of re
itinemeut and culture,
und by reason of
many benetinctions
to the Farmer's Alli
ance, has a command
ing influence with
them and other citi
xons of our county,
and we all like him.
It would certainly la
the last thing I would
attempt, Is to wound
his foelingsf by word
or deed;neither would
I blame Judge Slew
art for getting the
Alliance endorsement
of our county, for he
is also a worthy citi
zen of ftiis county,

Charles M. Speer,
See., Dear Sir andj
Bra. : Received your
communication as to
appointing a commit*
tee to confer etc.'
Had an understand* '
jug to-day in the
county Alliance, when :
YV. K. H. Searcv,'
from fear of interrup '
linn John D. Stewart,J
utterly refused to\
allow a committee
to be appointed to\
confer with you.'
Go ahead and appoint
your committees and
select a competent
Allianceman to rep
resent the nth Con
gressional District!
and the ranks of the
Farmer’s Alliance of
this county will he

at least, try to illus

pies.
Yours Fraternally, <
B. N. Millkk, i
Sec. S. C. A.
Fanner's Alliance
would have thought
it strange that a com
mittee should not
have been appointed
toconfer with a like
com nw I tee from oth
er counties of the fith
Congressional Dis
trict upon any meas
ure in behalf of unity
Phis was only the
purpose for which the
letter was written to
convey the informs
lion.
Fraternally Yours,
It. N. Miller.
Thu uews came from nil sections of
the couuty that Livingston is the far
mer's choice ; anti why not, since he
has spent his life at the plow handles,
while his oppouent has been dressed in
line linen and broad cloth, and
his chief purpose is to stir np litigation
among farmers, aud fatten off of their
misfortunes? Farmer Livingston will
get there with a brisk trot, while Law
yer Stewart will stand with his thumb
in bis mouth wondering what it was
that struck him.
FROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS
[Vtc are in nowise responsible for the
views expressed hy our Correspondents.
We cannot make any allowance forirreg
ularitvof mails or tailing to post letters al
ter thev are written. To obviate this diffi
culty, we would suggest. that correspon
dents at a distance write Saturday and
mail their communications as soon there
after as possible. It a le'ter comes in on
time aud we fail to publish, on account ol
want of space, it will lie published the fol
lowing week. I.et every correspondent give
us the uews iu as condensed form as pos.-i
--tde, otherwise it wiil lx- necessary to elimi
nate superfluities. All communications ar
riving after Wednesday wilt lie too late lor
publication.
Locust lirove.
.Before 1 forget it, I extend a special
and urgent invitation to y.-u and your
staff to be present and participate in
the exercises aud festivities of the 16tb
dav of July next at Locust Grove. I
also ask u space in your columns giv
ing an invitation to brother Beck, our
State Lecturer, and brother Livingston
whom 1 have invited by lettei ; the in
vitation is also extended to other speak
ers who may favor us with their pros
once The invitation still goes on and
takes in :ill of the lodges of the county
and adjacent regions, and still widens as
it goes and encircles everybody and
says, come and be one with us and par
take of the hospitalities of the people
of Locust Grove, remembering that it
takes well filled baskets to make such
an occasion a success. Some of our
Spalding county neighbors remarked
the other day that it anybody wanted
something good to eat and plenty of it
they had just better stop at Locust
Grove.
Now, before the eventful 10th of Ju
ly comes I w ill say to your readers that
on last Saturday we had a pretty fair
turnout of the Alliance brethren and
make every one a committeeman to
arrange for the day in question. We
also recommend our worthy county
president, W. M. Combs to represent
in in the senate ; for representative we
ottered no special preference. I fear
the political pot is going to boil too
strong ; it might lie best to take some
of the tire from under it, or withhold
the fuel. Our plan, as Alliancemen,
at the outset was to move slowly and
cautiously, but it seems as if they don’t
whip and spur they are fearful they
won't get-a grab at the purse. 1 mean
politicians. It was our motto, ‘‘anti
political,” it is now uncle political with
every one you meet. lam not oppos
ed to Alliancemeu being candidates,
but 1 advocate hesitancy—go slow.
It is the talk of a great many non-all i
ancemen that the Alliance intends to
take everything by storm ; that there
shall be no office holders outside of the
Alliance. Such stuff creates prejudice,
which is antagonistic to our order, and
I am persuaded that some of our breth
ren will become converts to such pre
vailing censure, become careless, mat
tontive, lukewarm, and I don’t care-a
dang which way it goes. I believe ev
ery member of the legislature for the
last ten years in Henry county, with
one or two exceptions, is now Alliance
men, some of those exceptions, can
never be Alliancemen, until another
ieconstruction Pikes place. I see no
harm in tho-e ex-ottieers being candi-
dates or members, but don’t let us run
it in that way politically,'but, but dem
ocratically.
1 am of the opinion that, it takes a
good democrat to make a good All i
auceman, and that it takes a good A!
liabcemau to make a good democrat in
a true sense the terms As our chap |
lain expressed himself the other even
ing, “it takes a Christian to make a
good one of either.”
Well, I may have wearied you,
though, 1 want to tell you that we e'-
ec eu our officers last Saturday for the
ensuing year—for president, T. W.
I'ric3 ; vice president, W. M. Corahs;
secretary, ltobeit Sandifer; Treasurer,
S. K. Glass; Chaplain. P, B. M.
Wells; W. 11. Vaugn, lecturer; S. C.
Pruitt, assistant lecturer; G. T.

Some of our farmers are in need of
rain. Half dozen or more farms here
have had no rain ir. four weeks to day.
Corn is beginning to wilt and burn
next to the ground. It is largo en
ough, hut without rain soon it will he
greatly injured. Cotton is doing bet
ter, bl.-otns reported by farm
ers. 1 don’t accuse anyone of being
partial iu the water works, but I think
the holt* In the sein is too large and
too much on one side to keep down
sectional selfishness.

There is more Catarrh iu this section
of the country than all other diseases
j put together, and until the last le-t
years wjis supposed to he incurable.
Fo” a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ji d local remedies, and by constantly
lading to cure with local treatment.
! pronounced it incurable. Science has
i proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti
tutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
(’ure, manufactured by F. J. Chenev
it Co , Toledo, Ohio, is the only con
stitutional cure on the market. It is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to a teaspoonful. It acts directly up
on the bloo I and mucuous surfaces of
the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure.

“Old Guard," says, with some stress,
in speaking of the County Court and
other matter to which we alluded, that
he lias never rumbled enough to find'
what we say to he correct. AV r ell, lie

not so.

Resolutions Adopted by Pleasant
Grove Alliance.
4\ hereas, The fearful prostitution of
our government and the unrighteous
trend of legislation for years past iu
favor of the rich as against the poor,
has created an alarming inequality of
wealth secured to aggregated capital
almost unlimited power to oppress, and
placed upon the agricultural and labor
ing classes almost unbearable bunlens.
And. whereas, This same aggregat
ed wealth in the of“combines,” “trusts”
“monopolies,” “syndicates,” “pooL”
etc by their influence and power over
both State and federal legislative bod
ies have been enabled to so control leg
| islation as to absorb and hold almost all
the profits of labor in their own hands,
thus coutinuing.to increase the wea’th
and powef of the rich few, and to in
crease the poverty and helplessness of
the tax paying masses.
And, whereas, we have the inaliena
j b!e right to seek through the ballot
t box a redress of our grievances. Thcre
j fore,
Resolved 1. By Pleasant Grove Al
liance, No 54 that we endorse and rec
ommend to the democratic party the
following names whom we believe are
fully iudentified with our interest and
and vviil unflinchingly contend for our
rights, to wit: Hon AY. J. Noithen
for Governor, Hon. L. F. Livingston
for Congress, Hon. T. Zachry for
Senator and the Hon. I. L. Gunter for
Representative.
Resolved 2, That this Alliance,
while we concede to every man the
constitution! right to vote for wliomso
ever he pleases, do hereby pledge our
support to thn above gentlemen lor the
respective positions fo. which we have
recon) mended them.
Resolved 3. That a copy of this pre
amble resol til ions be tenth ml to our
esteemed county papers, The Week
i.v, and the Times, for publication, and
| that the democratic party of Henry
county be respectfully solicited to co
operate with us in securing their nomi
nation.

AA’liercas, The Great Father of the
Universe has seen tit to invade our

A most dastardly outrage was com
