HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY. BY C. M. SPEER & CO. UTLiMA Ornct, S 3 E. fIITCHUL ST. TMt OFFICIAL ORGAN OF MCNRY COUNTY. WKKIY CIRCUtATION. ISOO. Sntored at the Poet (WBoc, McDonough, Georg!*, a* aecond clatw mail matter. ■ i' ' ' , 1 - ~~ O. M. SPEER, Editor. They Wiggle anil Squirm. There is great commotion just now at the State Capital, and those most perturbed are a few inmate* of the Capitol itsell. Chief among those tone retied aie a few understrappers who see that the ill will of events ap pears against their demi god, lien Gor don. The question that agitates their pure, white souls is, “Will Livingston oppose Gordon for the Senate ?” The Alliance sphinx remains as silent on this subject as the great conebaut non descript of this naan , who for four thousand years has hugged the rainless Egyptian plane, aud who is known to local reporters as “the great uninter viewed.’' Over and often have the frieuds of Governor Gordon si light, by one means and another, to ascertain whether or not Col. Livingston wanted the seuato rial plum. They have rack,ed their cunning and fertile brains to draw the Alliance mammoth into a disovowal of running for the Senate. Failing in this, they have attacked his democracy, and have made many futile efforts to bring him into political disrepute. These efforts, thanks to the honesty of the masses, have fallen as pointless darts, harmless at the feet of their iu tended victim. The hue and cry made against Livingston, as the leader of the Alliance, tliat he was leading the Alli ance into a deep and bottomless pitfall, laid for them by scheming Alliance leaders, and machinations begotten of republicanism aud liorn a desire to rule or ruiu. That these chaiges are false is proven by the manner iu which the people, the un ter tided, bourbon democracy, have relegated those colos sal democratic congiessmen to the un desirable walks of private life, 1 recause they bad gotten too big for Alliances breeches. When nppealod to, by the masses far help to support the sub treasury bill, they met with one accord and denounced tbe pet measure and on ly hope of tbo farmers for financial re lief, and treated the farmers as if they had been so many beggars who had no voice lu public affairs. These men, el evated by tbo people, had become their masters instead of their seivauts ; but now they have representatives direct ly from the plowhamlles. The future of the democracy seems now to brighten, and the masses who have Ironic the burdeu of government for ,\ll these years unrepresented, promises to be laden with wise and helpful legislation. Let not our foruiei lords aud masters continue the howl, “the Alliance is against the democratic party, and will ruin the country.” This is already kuowu to be the wail of expiring office seekers who have fattened on the mis fortunes of their fellow citizens. If the Alliance of the south is not the Democ racy, then, pray tell os who is ? The farmers of the South fought the com bined world, arrayed in Yankee uni form, from ’6l to ’65 ; the farmers of the South voted the straight democrat ic ticket from '65 to lhh> day of giace; then if this is not a sufficient test of their loyalty to democracy they have no resyect for the opiuious of those sore heads and marplots who think dif ferently. Deafness Can’t Be Cured ny local applications, as they can not reach the diseased portiou ot the ear. There is only one wav to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional rem edies. Deafness is caused by an in flamed condition of the mucuous lin - ing of the Eustachian Tula*. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflamma tion can be taken out and this lube res tored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever ; uine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the tnucuons surfaces. We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caus ;d by Ca tarrh) that we cannot cure by taking Hall's Catarrh Cure Send for ciicu lars, free. F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O. CSPSoId by Druggists, 75c. The Last of the HugKcrniuggers. ‘•There were giants in those days,” named Huggermuggers. One by one the proud, autocratic, democratic congressmen from o’eorgia, go down before the popular will, llut a few brief weeks ago the Georgia delegation, in congress, held a caucus as to the best method of wbippiug their refractory Alliance constituents into line. It was agreed, by one and all of these wiseacres, that the Alliance and their leaders were an impertineut Bet of fellows, clamoring for sjniething about they knew nothing, and that the best thing to do was to de clare against their sub-treasury scheme aud defeat it and drive the Alliance from the political arena. Judge Stewart was the first one of these Doughty Statesmen to measure lances with the Alliance forces. The result of his forh>us attacks on the or der soon brought down upon him the uumeasmed condemnation of the yeo- manry of the sth district. Wilton county, which was considered the strongest Stewart county in the dis trict, was the first to net. Contrary to all expectation she gave the Alii artcc champion an overwhelming ma jority, which so discorr.fitted Judge Stewart that ho withdrew from the race, declaring that the clanish ad hearence of the Alliance to their lead erg rendered it impossible for a pa triot (?) to stand up before the ignor ouoe and ihtolereuce of these latter- day “Know-uo:biugs.” A dazzling political star, of the fourth magnitude, Col. Hilly Hulsey, of Atlauta, threw himself into the im inent deadly breach and took np tbe 1 fori m u hope where Judge Stewart bail thrown it do an, and proclaimed in a bombastic manifesto, that he would teach the eratic Alliancemen of tbe sth district that they should follow tilindly the leadmship.of God's am joint er! —the aristocracy. Notwithstanding this manifesto, one county after anoth er declared for the Alliance leader, Col. L. F. Livingston. Col. Hulsey seeing that he was enveloped by a po litical cyclone threw up the sponge, ami unbosomed himself to his wayward lellow citizens in the numistakahlp langue of the Irish witness, “I’m sick, send for Maginnis.” Hear his wail: Atlanta, Ga., July 29, 1890. It being manifest that Mr. Livings tou has received a sufficient number of votes to secuie his nomination for cou gress from this district, uud that the convention soon to assemble will no doubt confer this high diatijic.ion upon him, I therefore withdiaw mv an nouncement as a Candida*! for that of lice. In prusuing this oeurso I am moved by a desire to act in harmony aud accord with the. will of the people expressed by their ballots, and while I have opinions of my own t>g to the poli cy of the democratic party with its present surroundings and environments still I am sure I will be pardoned if I withhold them on this occasion, since my motives might be misconstrued and utijust criticisms indulged in. There fore pretermitting any expression of opinion, and volunteering no advice as to the course to be pursued by the democracy, I fruin the field with no heart burnings Ht my defeat, and no bickerings as to the cause thereof. And now, in conclusion, F desire to most earnestly and sincerely thank my friends and the people of this distiict for the many manifestations of their kindness and preferences towards me while in the contest. Whatever my fortunes may lie, I shall continue to strive in the future, as I have done in the past, to merit the good opinion of my fellow-men. Very truly and respectfully, VVm. 11. Hrk.sKY. To live or not to live is the question which anmialy confronts the residents of our low grounds and swampy dis tricts. Take Cheatham’s Tasteless Chill Toi.ic. It Is too latte to Dictate. There is a disposition on the part of Governor Goidou’s friends to dictate to Col. Livingston the proper course to pursue relative to the senatorsbip. Col. Livingston, it occurs to us, is able to paddle his own canoe, and the gratuitous advice bestowed on him by Governor Gordon's hcuchiucu is treat ed, us it should lie, w ith silent con tempt. The stiring events of the past few weeks have shown that these were found in the counsels of Livings ton’s enemies, and were the head and frout of his opposition to congressional preferment. It now'comes with had grace that they should advise him what course to pursue as to the senatorial race. The most sublime effrontery and cheek yet offered was a “con ft den tal” letter sent to him by our Alliaucc Brother Whidby and “inspired by” his friend, Ju Ige James S. Hook, lirothcr \\ hid by talks very much like a man who has been done up at his own game. The Allusions made to Col. Livingston will do that gentleman no harm, but the plantation language used by Brother Whidby could but elicit the coudemnaiiou of the demo cratic voters of the sth district, who i gave Col. Livingston their tt tdivide 1 support. \\ e give the malevolent remarks of our frustrated brother, Whidbv, and ask our fellow citizens to bear with him, for wheu the Legislature meets and chooses Col. Livingston for the Senate, then the irate brother will take a tumble to himself and find that his scurrilous remarks have iuftuenced uo oue. and have shown h'tn to be a little fellow whose assauine stupidity can but elicit their pity, as his re marks shows that Col. Livingston was not such a great uinuy after all : Atlanta, Ga.. August 1, IHHO. Editor Athens Banner : In your is sue of the 81st ult., under the head of 4 A sensational letter received by Liv iugstou, sent from Atlanta under date of July 30th, is a statement that Mr. Livingston “had received a letter and wanted to know who inspired it.” After pretending to give the sub-taiue i of the letter this telegram goes on to say : “Thu gentleman who mailid him this letter is hound to secrecy, hull Livingston expects to discover its au thor. He knows two people at the ca| ttol who yesterday knew that the letter had been sent though he did not i receive it until to-dav lie knows two other people who read the letter be fore it was mailed—at least, that’s what lie tells me, “aud yet they say” ! he laughed “that Gordon ain't scal ed.” As the friend of Livingston and of Gordon, I wrote him, Livingston, a private and confidential letter, telling hitn of the necessity of making sonic declaration in relation to the senator ship to prevent the alienation of Got doti's friend’s from him. 1 wro'e it as a friend, and in good faith, believing him to he a gentleman. In consultation with my friend, Judge James S. Hook, whose wisdom aud prudence I havo often sought iu the past, he drew up a letter iu dupli cate for Mr. Livingston to sign, set ting at rest this matter. No living soul outside of myself, ever saw mv letter to Livingston before I delivered it in person July 26th, to Captain Har ry C. Brown, of the ,Southern Alli ance Farmer, to deliver to Mr. Liv ingston. If anybody baa read tbe let ter since, beside Mr. Livingston, it was not with my consent. On July 29tli 1 was iu the office qf the Southern Alii ance Farmer and called Mr. Livings- ton’s attention to my letter and asked a reply. He kuew that 1 wrote the letter to him, aud 1 have reason to believe that he knew Judge Hook prepared the pa per for his signature. in the intercourse between gentle men it is usual for them to preserve inviolate what is communicated to them in confidence aud hr an act of friendship. The insinuation as to the inspiration of the paper is unworthy even of a demagogue. I make this plain statement of facts to correct the impression sought to he made by this surreptitious telegram and leave an honest and manly public to judge whether a man who will betray the confidence of a gentleman is worthy of the confidence and trust of the people. W. G. Whidhy. What It f usts Must be carefully considere I by the great majority of people, in buying ev en necessities of life. Hood's ■Sarsapa rilla commends itself with special force to tbe great middle classes, because it combines positive ‘economy with great medicinal power.

Itlutne Is l.ookliiK Ahead. Mr. Blaine is constructing a cyclone cellar AV ben it is completed and stocked witlt provisions (not the gift of a Phil adelpiiia real estate syndicate) he will get into it and let tbe Administration shanty take its chances. Mr. Blaine can see between the rounds of a ladder, and some other em inent Republicans cannot. He sees that with Mchfinleyi in the chart room laying out a course through a region of reefs and shoals marked ‘highly dan gerous,” and Reed on the bridge riny ing four Indls every few minutes ami remarking that the faster she went the sooner she’d get out of danger and Lodge jamming hams and tu.'peutine into the furnaces, the Republican par ty is making a bee line for destruction and—dropping the prairie metaphor with which we begun, and completing the marine figure--he intends to take care of himself, lie has put his He proserver on, and he is arranging to get possession of a small Imat in which he will cast off Indore the catastrophe comes. Mr. Blaine se,*4 that Speaker Reed’s usurption of power is indefensible and will prove unpopular; that Reed’s parliamentary procedure is favorable for all the had and extravagant legisla tion, an! an obstruction in the way of all sound and economical and conserva tive action, and while Mr Blaine has never been distinguished for his con servatism he knows when the people have had enough and he doesn’t intend to make the mistake that some of the South Carolina carpet-baggers made when they flattered themselves that these was four more years of good stealing. Mr. Blaine sees that the McKinley b’ll, increasing the power ami profits ol the sugar, glass, Meet beams, linseed oil, starch and other trusts, and lend ing to increase the difficulty of selling our surplus of farm produce, will he repudiated by the people as soon as it is tried, and probably before it gets a chance to be tried, and so he has lashed the life preserver of South American reciprocity around his chest, ami when the political waves close forever over several other heads, including one obscured by his gfrandfnther’s bat, one which Contains a laid eye, and one which contains a full quorum of- male volent but intensely active brains, the bead and shoulders ol -lames Gillspie Blaine will be riding tbe flo )d like one of Mother Carey’s chickens, ami the Republican party will lie invited to re turn to the only and original Uicobs, if it wants a leader. Mr. Blaine sees a few other things. He sees that the President regards him with that jealousy which mediocrity and obscurity always feel for brilliance and popularity. Bismatck was greater than the throne, and the little hoy on the throne hail to get rid of Bismarck. Blaine is bigger than the Presidency, and the fact is galling to the gentleman wiio is known half the time as the grandsou of his grandfather, and the other half as the grandfather of his grandson. The intermediate term be tween General William lleury Harri son ami Baby McKee, who seems to think the Presidency of the United Stales is a free lunch route, has made no friends, outlined no policy for his party, turned the Federal patronage over to his family and his few personal adherents, denied Mr. Blaine the usual privileges of.a Secretary of State, aud lias finally instructed the revenue cut ters iu Behring Sea to make war on English vessels while Mr. Blaine was negotiatihg regarding Behring Sea witlt the English Minister. These instructions were subsequently suspen ded, but only after they had been pub lished, after they 1 ad drawn a pointed threat from the Britisn Government, aud after they had put Mr. Blaine iu the position of apparent double deal ing. Mr. Blaine knew that the only way of settling the Berhing Sea con troversy was by an international agree ment for a close season during the breeding time. This was Mr. Bayard’s policy and one iu accordance with which he would have reached a perma nent settlement had not the Canadians insisted on mixing up the mackerel fisheries with tlie Behring Sea ques tion. 1 he President having put his oar in and made a mess of the thing. Air. Blaine’s friend Mr. Hitt offered a rego lution calling for the papers in the case. This call the President is slow, but not unaccountahl v slow, in comply ing with. Mr. Blaine is preparing his small boat, aud he will take to it before the incompetency of Harrison and the recklessness of Reed, McKinley and Lodge wreck the Republican ship National Democrat.

Four days have elapsed since the supreme cou.it refused to grunt Tom \\ oolfolk a new trial, and vet no move has I teen made toward uniting •an appeal of the case to the great court of the nation. The majority of Ms con lawyers do not Irelievc an attempt will be made in that direction. M jor A 0. Bacon, the law puituer of Colonel Rutherford, whose name has been so closely linked all along with tt.is case, was not very comnmni cative when interviewed about it Yes- terday. “I don't know anything about it,” said he. “and I wish you wouldn’t ask me anything about it. I have been asked more questions in regard to it already than i like. I can't get on a street car, or walk oui anywhere with out being asked a lot i f questions about what will be done with Wool folk. The fact is, I can't tell a thing about it. Mr. Rutherford is in Mew York, or away off somewhere, and 1 have no more idea as to his intended movements than you have.” Wi h that the suave major fettled down to a volume of late supreme court leports with an earnest ness which showed that conversation was at an end.

For awhile, after lie hen d that the su preme court had decided a /ains him. the grea’ criminal tried to put on a bold fiont, and spent a considerable part of his time in singing hue songs and Sunday school hymns, and was more communicative with his guards than he was ever known to before. Yesterday, however, he grew moody and silently, and hit' steady hut rather jerk tread could he heard all the morn ing as he paced in his cell to and tro. During the afternoon he sent for Nat Birdsong, the jailer, saying that he had something to tell him. “Im getting tired of this here busi ness,” were Wool folk's first wards, which were spoken with a desperate smile alxmt his pale lips as the jailer approached him. “I’d just as live be dead as to be in this suspense. I’m going to wrbe to Judge Miller and ask him to sentence me as quick as he can, and have the thing over. “But I want to tell you right now, that I ain’t going to confess nothing, because I ain't done nothing to confess about, because lam innocent. I'll stick to that. I tell you. I didn’t do that killing. If I was guilty, I would have been crazy long before this, witli alt I have had to go through. I have prayed tJod Almighty to give me strength to bear it, and that is ad that has carried me through.” it is said that Judge Miller cannot pass the sentence of death on Woolfolk, as he is disqualified from it by having once been engaged as the murderer’s attorney during the tiial. The duty ol apiuniting some one to pass his sentence devolves upon llou. Clifford Anderson, ns attorney' general of ffeorgia, and it is intimated that the appointment will he made on Monday next. Very soon afterward sentence vyill be passed, and thirty days thereafter w ill he played the last, act in the great est tragedy that (Jeorgia has ever known.— Macon Telegraph.
