McDonough, Ga., July 20, 1894.
Liyiugston is now called one of the
non put downables in Georgia politics.
Why not advocate the free and un
limited coinage of copper as well as
silver ? Would not a triple standard
be better than a double standard ?
Ex.
Judge Hines tried to ride the Farm
ers' Alliance into the United States
senate. He is going to ride the third
party into a hole.—Sylvauia Tele

Buckingham's Dye foi the Whiskers
does its work thoroughly, coloring a
uniform brown or black, which, when
dry, will neither rub, wash off, nor
soil linen.
It is only three weeks until the state
convention will meet. Thereafter the
third party will catch it from the shoul

and be ready.—Ex.
The party of the third party cannot
maintain its principles before and en
lightened public. Woman suffrage and
government ownership of railroads
won’t be swallowed by Georg’ans.—
Law renceville News.
We agree with the Oglethorpe Echo
when it says emigration to Georgia and
the South is wanted, but the strike in
the Northwest with some of its atten
dant scenes convinces us that we do
not need indiscriminate emigration.
It seems that the third party is not
as hard on lawyers now as it was four
years ago. It could not tolerate law
yers nor Atlanta rings then, bat now it
selects an Atlanta lawyer, who has not
sold his law books, for governor of
Georgia—Swainsboro Pine Forest.
The great railroail strike is practi
cally at an end, and transportation is
assuming normal proportions. The
railroads estimate their loss at from
55,000,000 to $8,000,000, while the
general loss the country in general, as
well as the stiikers themselves, can
hardly be estimated.
I o make your business pay, good
health is a prime factor. To secure
good health, the blood should be kept
pure and vigorous by the use of Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla. When the vital fluid is
impure and sluggish, there can be neith
er health, strength, nor ambition.
If you would have an abundance of
dark, glossy hair, if you would have u
clean scalp, free from dandruff and irri
ta'ing humors, or if your hair is faded
and gray, and you would have its natu
ral color restored, use Ayer s Hair Vig
or. It is unquestionably the best dress
ing.
As the Constitution has called upon
both of the Democratic candidates to
come out of the race, now suppose it
calls upon Judge Hines to get off the
track and give Mr. Atkinson a clear
sweep. Let it do that and all will be
forgiven. Call him off, captain ; call
him off.—Covington Star.
Major A. O. Bacon is being endorsed

people are acting wisely in doing so.
He is a man of vigorous intellect and

soundly democratic, and on the finan

the people. Georgia can safely rest
her interests in the hands if Maj. lia

pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a con

Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the!

HEAOASi IN HAMPTON.
lie Sjm aks to tt l.arge Crowd and De
fines His Position.
By appointment Col. Reagan ad
dress'd the citizens of Hampton on
Saturday last upon the issues of the
j campaign, and was greeted by a latge
crowd.
lie dwelt at length upon the fact that
in entering the r; co for representative
he did not in any way antagonize Hum
tou’s choice—that he persisteutly re
fused to run «o long as our nominee,
Col. W. P. Wilson, was in the race.
But when Col. Wilson, from patriotic
motives, retired it left him free to act
as his friends wished.
All he asked of Hampton was not to
vote aga’nst him from local prejudice,
but pass upon the merits of the two
candidates and vote accordingly.
As be had been called a gold bug by
iiis opponent, it devolved upon him lo
declare his policy, which he did in no
uncertain way, upon the silver ques
tion.
He said that “the Democratic plat
form calls for the use of both gold and
silver as the standard money of the
country, and the coinage ot both gold
and silver without discriminating
against either metal, or charge for
mintage, but the dollar unit of coinage
of both metals must be of equal intrin
sic and exchangeable value, or adjus
ted through international agreement, or
by such safeguards of legislation as
shall insure the maintenance of parity
of the two metals.
lam a bimetalist. I stand on the
democratic platform The platform
calls lor tho free coinage of both met
als, because it says “without the charge
for mintage.” lam therefore in fa
vor'of free coinage of silver by our own
government, by such safeguards of
legislation as shall insure its parity
with gold. This is the democratic doc
trine.
The People's Party platform says
“we demand the free and unlimited
coinage of silver and gold at the pres
ent legal ratio of 16 to 1.” It will
thus be seen that the people’s party
demands that silver be coined in unlim
ited amounts, without any legislative
safeguard whatever, and no provision
made for keeping the value and pur
chasing power of the silver dollar on a
parity with the gold dollar. To this 1
am opposed; and so are all democrats,
so far as I am informed.
The difference between the demo
cratic party and the peoples party on
the silver question is simply this—the
democrats believe in the free coinage
of both gold and silver on a pariiy wilh
each other, this parity to be maintained
cither by international agreement or bv
sullicieiyi safeguards of legislation, while
the peoples party demands its unlimited
coinage without any legislation, or
other provision whatever for its main
tenance on a parity with gold.
Democrats differ as to the host mode
ot maintaining the parity of the two
metals. While 1 think that the best
mode is by international agreement, 1
also think that it can be done by our
own county by “sufficient safeguards of
legislation,” and as it appears that the
foronr plan cannot tiuw he adopted, 1
favor the latter plan. Let the two
metals he coined free in sufficient quan
tities for the ueeds of the country, and
in such a manner as will make the dol
lar of one always as good as the dollar
of the other. This will insure a safe
currency.”
Col. Reagan already had many
friends in our district, and his speech
certainly gained him votes.
Hampton.
Fulton Is Livingston's.
It is out of the question to down Lou
Livingston.
That fact was demonstrated Wed
nesday, when he carried Alauta and
Fulton county over Candler by a vote
of 2,633 to 1,648.
From the opening of the campaigu,
it was one of the most exciting contests
ever seen in Atlanta, and commenting
on the result the Constitution says:
“It was a landslide for Colonel Liv
iugstou yesterday.
Every ward in the city and every
precinct in the county, save oue, gave
him a handsome majority.
Forty eight hours ago his most sau
guiue friends would not have had the as
surance to assert that he would beat
the race by more than 500 to 700.
If any one ever doubted that Colonel
Livingston had friends by the score in
the city of Atlanta he must have found
| bis mind disabused after bearing from
the wards last uigbt.
There have been elections in the city
| :u which candidates have had an ova
tion from the ballot box, but there has
lever been an ovation like the one
I Colonel Livingston was given by the
voters of Atlanta yesterday.
i* was one of those royal, genuine
w h s uled out pourings of feelfug for
the n; in for whom they were working
that it enthused even the slowest friend
him! put him to doing the best he could
for the man who has been the best rep
resentative toe city of Atlanta bas had
in the uatioual house in a long time.
Nothing like the faith in success has
ever been seen in an Atlanta election
|as was shown by the people who were
behind Colonel Livingston and who
were working for him during the day.
That same easy, careless style which
has so long been a part of the congress
man was infective and caught all of
those who were behind them. It was
j almost an open declaration that In coaid
! not be beaten, and mtny of thorn who
were not caught by it were almost
i driven into the Livingston ranks.
Some of the most prominent men of
the city were out and were doing the
best electioneering of their lives in the
city for the gentleman who will live in
Washington for the next two years.
And along beside these same gentle
men were some of the men who make a
living by trade, employment or any
thing else.
'I lie bootblack stood beside the law
yer in the sixth ward asking for a vote
for Co’ouel Livingston, while the
blacksmith, with bared arm, elbowed
the gloved physician in the second,
handing out a ticket on which the name
of Colonel Livingston was piinted.
And wheu these tickets were given
out there was none of that doubting air
as to the result. The purveyor of the
ballot appeared to know that the name
on the ticket was a talisman and that it
would he voted without any further
work.
And in most cases they were right.
There was not a ward in the city he
did not carry and only two in the
county that he lost. The loss of these
two was due, however, to the fact that
no fight was made in either one for the
man who won with hands down.

The recent dry weather must have
been pretty severe on mustaches as we
notice several in this community hav
ing lost theirs.
Mrs. Jack Terry, who has been sick
for some time, is still no better. We
hope to note her early recovery.
We regret to chronicle the death of
Miss Adel! a Bowden, the 12 year old
daughter of Mr. John Bowden, which
occurred at her home near Locust
Grove last Sunday, after a short and
painful illness. Her death has cast a
gloom over the household in which she
lived, and has caused a vacant scat in
family circle which can never be filled.
Out of a family of twelve that has been
reared under this parental roof, she was
the first one to take her flight from this
unfriendly world into the great beyond,
which makes it more sad and distress
ing. They should remember that it
is the “Lord that giveth and the Lord
that taketh away,” and that one day
bye and bye, if they are faithful, they
shall see Adeßa again. Her remains
were interred at the cemetery at Beth
any last Monday, after an appropriate
funeral service by Revs. J. A. Jackson
and L. P. Neese. May she rest in
peace. Plow Bov.

more.

she is an accomplished young lady and

N w that the Evans-Atkin-on race
is over, our interest is naturally turned
to the Gridin Reagan race, which is
now upon us. The people of this dis
trict are almost a unit for Mr. Griffin,
and think that Col. lieagan is acting
very unfair to even offer to run, since
Hampton district has always given him
such strong support, ami that iu ’92 he
said he wou'd not run against a Hamp
ton district man. We are going to sup
port Mr. Griffin because we think it
nothing but right by actual rotation,
and believing there is no better man in
the county to represent her interests,
and will strive to look to the interest
of all classes We understand that
Col. Reagan claims that Hamp'on has
relinquished her claims since Mr. Wil
son declined to run, he being their
choice. Now, here is the way the peo
ple stand. Mr. Wilson had 54 citi
zens who asked him to make the race,
while Mr. Griffin has a list of nearly a
hundred asking him to become a candi
date. I simply state this that the peo
pie may know the facts in the case, and
just why he is a candidate, and to show
you that Mr. Wilson had no right to
relinquish Hampton’s claims, even if
he had the power lo do so, but we don’t
believe he ever attempted to do such a
thing. In conclusion, will say Damp
ton district has always been a unit, and
1 believe it will he again, by giving
Farmer Griffin a unanimous vote.
