FIRST BLOOD.
Democrats Victorious in a Majority
of the Elections.
Campbell failed to carry Ohio Tues
day, but New York gave a glorious
democratic victory, and the grand old
partv is in the lead. lielow are the
reports:
New Y’ork, Nov. 4.—Roswell I*.
Flower has been elected governor of
New York to succeed David 11. Hill
by a plurality estimated between 18,-
000 and 24,000. Not only has Flow
er been elected governor, but the
Democrats have secured both branch
es of the legislature. Flower’s major
ity in the city reaches 57,000. New
Y’ork, Kings, Queens and Richmond
couuties gave him 72,000 majority.
Fassett’s majority above the Harlem
river can hardly exceed 47,000. Fas
settt did not carry Elmira, his own
city, Flower beating him there by 504
votes. Flower’s gain on the decreased
vote was ahead of Hill’s.
OHIO.
Cincinnati, Nov. 4.—Wm. McKin
ley has carried the day in Ohio and his
election is assured by a majority of
15,000 votes. Unexpected Republican
gains were made throughout the state
outside of Cincinnati, while the latter
did not give the expected Republican
plurality. The legislature is Repub
lican by a safe majority.
MASSACHUSETTS.
Boston, Nov. 4. Massachusetts
has again gone Democratic and the re
turns give Russell the state by about
5,000. A large vote was polled through
out the state. Boston gave Russell a
majority of over 115,000. The gove
nor received the returns without the
least excitement and calmly figured out
the relative gains and losses as the fig
ures were placed before him.
MARYLAND.
Baltimore, Nov. 4.—The entire
Democratic state ticket lias been elec
ted by increased majorities over the
vote of two years ago. The democrats
will have a majority in the senate and
the house of delegates, making sure the
re-election of Senator Gorman and of a
Democratic United States senator in
the place of Wilson, deceased.
IOWA.
Des Moines, Nov. 4.—The Dem
ocrats have won a victory in this state.
Boies has been re-elected govenor by
a majority of 2,500. The legislatiTre
will be controlled by the Democrats.
The total vote of the state will reach
410,000, against 404,000 in 1888,
which was the heaviest previous vote
in the history of the state.
NEW JERSEY.
Trenton, Nov. 4.—The Democrats
have elected a majority in both branch
es of the legislature in this state. The
majority on joint ballot will be about
33, probably the largest ever held by
either party in the legislature.
PENNSYLVANIA.
Philadelphia, Nov. 4.—The Re
publicans have carried the state by 35,-
000 to 40,000 majority, and the city by
probably 20,000. The contest has
been a warm one and a great deal of
money has been spent.
Convicts Released.
For several mouths there has been
trouble iu Tennessee over convict la
bor. The compliant being that con
vict labor was brought iuto competition
with free labor and tbe result was that
wages were so low that honest, hard !
working men were unable to support
their families.
Last summer armed men took charge
of the State penitentiary at Briceville
and threatened to release the convicts
unless the Governor removed them
from the coal mines. A compromise
was effected by which quiet was restored
under the promise of the Executive to
call the Legislature iu extra session to
give relief.
The Legislature met and after a lone
sessiou refused to do anything, but left
the conviot questiou standing just as it j
had been.
As no relief was in sight the miners ;
determined to take the matter iu hand
and dispose of the convicts by mob
force.
So last Friday a force of probably a
thousand meu quietly assembled at
Briceville aud Coal Creek and over
powered the guards, turned loose near
ly 400 convicts, gave them new suits of
clothes and told them “to git” which
they did in hot haste.
Tbe grievance of the miners was un
doubtedly an aggravated one, aud their
action is sanctioned by some and con
demned by others.

burning of Mr. Amis’ gin house, as it is
a heavy loss to our friend. W. W.
Akiu lost six bales of cotton by the
fire.
Mr. Sam Carmichael had a mule
which got its leg broked about a year
ago, and it never got over the injury,
being entirely useless. Consequently
he had the mule killed last week.
We regret exceedingly to hear of
the death of our friend W. W. Turnip
seed He was a good Christian gentle
man. Old Guard.
ROCKY CREEK.
Cotton is about all picked out in this
community.
L. H. Pursley and T. J. Turuipseed

house at Louella for A. R. Martin.
Mr. Martin will open up a large stock
of general merchandise soon.
Messrs. 11. 11. Grier and W. T.

Friday and purchased doors and win
dow sash for Rocky Cretk church.

Mr. Tim Wright and family, of Ter
rell county, are visiting relatives and

Mr. E. L. McMullen has bought
land in Newton county and will move

Mr. W. N. Gilmore, Ed Wright
and Jim Jeffers look in the fair at Ma
con last Friday.

school, but we learn since that he has
accepted a school near Mt. Bethel.
Clever Ed Knott and Newt Glass
were in this vicinity Monday.
Miss Fletchei Ammons returned
home last week from an extended visit
to relatives in Atlanta.
The favorable fall has given the far
mer a chance to gather the fleecy sta
ple, which they have made good their
opportunity in doing so. We find that
it is falling very short in this part of
the moral vineyard, we predict that it
is this way all over the different states
which will cause cotton to advance in
price in the near future, and we think
the farmers should hold their cotton
for a better price.
Lumpkin Gresham, of Worthville,
visited in the community last Sunday.
It is much better to endeavor to for
get anyones misfortune than to speak
of them.
We learn that Mr. H. M. Tollerson j
will move to McDouougli next year.

Help Needed.
Editor Weekly :—I borrow and
read with iuterest your paper from
my neighbor and friend, Mr. John E
| Stewart. To-night I picked it up and
I began to read, when the thought struck
'me that Mr. Stewart was born and
raised in that good old county. He
lias been living in this neighborhood
live years. We are brothers iu the
j church and brothers iu the alliance, and
I never lived by a better neighbor nor
had a better friend thau John E. Stew
art. No man ever won the respect of
a community quicker nor held it better
thau be has this one. All who know
him here love and respect him. He
has held and is holding the most res
ponsible positions in the Alliauce. He
j is an earnest, honest, chiistian gentle
man and everybody likes his family
, lie has doue well since lie come until
this year. Fate has been agaiusi him
all this year. In the spring and sum
! mer his whole family had measels, caus
ing him to almost lose his crop. He
did the best that could be done, but
didn’t make more than half a crop;
theu last Tuesday night while he was
20 miles away helping bury a neigh
bors child, some unprincipled person
set tire to the gin house ou the
farm he lives on. and burner! six bales
of cotton and about a hundred aud
twenty dollars worth of other stuff, a
buggy, a cutaway harrew, cotton seed
and other things that were stored awav
in and altout the ginhouse. He is just
ruined :,ud if he is pushed everything
he has will sell. He had bargained for
a home, had a good chance on it, but I
if he dot,’}, get help hd will lose his
home VV’e have started a Mibscriptiou,
I dou’t know with what success, but I
know Cobb county will bear part of bis
loss
Now. I am not begging the people of
Henry, for if he is a sample of the peo
ple of Henry, they need no la-gging,
fur in every case of distress he is the
first to help since he has been in our
community.
I merely write the Weekly that his
old county might know of his misfor
luue. knowing if they knew that mis
fortune had overtaken him they would
be anxious to help him. Brother Stew
art has told those that lie owes, that lie
will gather the balance of his crop and
let them have it, and then to come and
take until they are paid. Now, we
don’t want his things sacrificed any
such way. We don’t want him to lose
his home, and I don’t believe that the
good people of old Cohb at.d Henry
will see it done.
Now. I have told ray story, if any
one desires to help him, send it to L.
J. Keheley or John E. Stewart. Liz

as mercury will surely destroy the
sense of smell and completely derange
the whole system when entering it
through the mucous surfaces. Such ar
ticles should never be used except on
prescriptions from reputable physicians,

to the good you can possibly derive
from them. Hall’s Catarrh Cure,

She Has Gone Home.
Mis. I. R. Rosser departed tius life
on the 24th day of October. She had
been a member of Indian Creek church
from her early youth. As a member
she will be missed, as neighbor, as
friend, as wife and mother will her loss
be most keenly felt. And it is a beau
tiful tribute to her memory that those
who were most intimately associated
with her in her daily life, speak most
warmly of her many admirable traits
of character.
No one in every walk of life repre
sented more fully than she, the sub
lime priuciples of Christian faith, and
in her death she leaves an example to
be imitated by "all- We deplore the
loss of Mrs. Rosser with deep feeling
of regret, softened only by the confi
dent hope that her spirit is with those
who have fought the good fight here
are enjoying perfect happiness in a bet
ter world. She leaves two small chil
4ren and a devoted husband, and a
host of relatives and friends to mourn
her loss. But we trust that we all
shall see her again on that bright and
happy shore where there is no more
farewell to be said.
Farewell, Susie, for a short while
Farewell is all we can say;
But we hope to meet you, Susie,
On a bright and better day.

The importance of purifying the blood can
not be overestimated, for without pure blood
you cannot enjoy good health.
At this season nearly every one needs a
good medicine to purify, vitalize, and eurich
the blood, and we ask you to try Hood's
Pgvf'l ll i a i- Sarsaparilla. It strengthens
rCk.ulld.r am j builds up the system,
creates an appetite, and tones the digestion,
wldle it eradicates disease. The peculiar
combination, proportion, and preparation
of the vegetable remedies used give to
Hood's Sarsaparilla pecul- i,..ir
iar curative powers. No • O ■ ISC IT
other medicine has such a record of wonderful
cures. If you have made up your mind to
buy Hood's Sarsaparilla do not be induced to
take any other instead. It is a Peculiar
Medicine, and is worthy your confidence.
Hood's Sarsaparilla is sold by all druggists.
