Orcr in the second district Mr. O. B. Stevens has “got the drop on the boys” and is carrying things in the Democratic primaries his own way. He is opposed by the third party section of the alliance and by the straightout Democrats, but he aj^ara to be carrying the Ocala idea on one shoulder and democratic rotes on the other very successfully. There are lively times ahead in the second. We wouldn't be surprised to Hon. B. E. Russell, the gifted and versatile Ben, go “agin” him in the convention, and fail ing there, run an independent schedule for Congress. TURNER NOMINATED.

A valuable contribution on the altove subject from the |>en of that gifted writer Mr. C. T. Malone, appeared in the last number of the Herald. No subject ital importance to the prosj>erity of any country. The road is ilizatic.» of a people. Good churches and schools cannot be maintained without good roads approach ing them. The greatest economy in farming o|»erations cannot Ik* attained without good thoroughfares for reaching the markets. A country cannot he run to l>est advantage by prospective settlers without the agency of good roads. Well made thoroughfares enhance the value of adjacent property more than double. The requisites of good roads are first, directness ; second, easy gradients; third, good drainage; fourth, a hard durable surface material. No county possesses greater advantages for all these requisi tes, than Ware county. * )ur county is comparatively level, ami roads might l*e constructed in straight lines and grades, drainage is easily accomplished, and our soil is of a compact nature that makes a good surface when sand and clay predominate, :» few loads of the other will make a firm covering. Stump* should Ik* removed. The depth of ditches should he at least two below the apex of road.

The convention to nominate a candi date for Congress from the new Eleventh District, met in the handsome opera house in this city la*t Wednesday at 11 o’clock. A magnificent life-site crayon of the distinguished Geoigian who is to lead the Democratic forces oT this district to ictory in Novemlier next, was displayed onspiciiously upon the wall of the build ing, and it seemed so real and life-like that the delegate* felt almost as if they stood in the living presence of the hon- >red leader. Hon. C. R. Pendleton, Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee, called the meeting to order and an nounced that the first business was to elect a temporary chairman. On tion Mr. Pendleton was elected to that position. A. L. Ryals was elected Sec retary and J. W. Hanlon and . Sharp assistants. Then followed the roll call of counties and it was found that every county it the district was represented. The Chairman appointed the follow ing committees: On credentials—J. »V Bennett, J. II. Ryals, B. II. Patterson, Felder I.ang and W. A. McNeil. < rules of permanent organization—E. S. Denmark, J. L. Beach, S. It. Harris, C. L. Holmes and L. M. Curry. The committee on credentials made their report which was adopted by the convention. The committee on rules of permanent organization made their report, endors ing the majority rule, and recommend ing as |iermanent chairman Judge M. L. Mershon, of Glyiiu, and as Secreta ries A. L. Ryals, J. S. Sharp and J. W. Hanlon. The report was adopted as a whole, and E. P. S. Denmark and J. W. Bennett were appointed to escort Judge Mershon to the chair. He walked upon the platform amid loud applause from B. H. Patterson, E. P. S. Denmark, J. C. Lehman, J. 8. Sharp and C. I* Holme* were appointed to notify Mr. Turner of his nomination and request his acceptance. Spirited addresses were made by Messrs. Homes, Denmark, Griffin and Dun woody. The last named gentleman, is the present representative of Glynn county, paid a glowing tribute to the defeated candidate. Judge Atkinson, and said as a true Democrat he would lie found at his post liattling for the success of the Democracy. On motion of Mr. C. R. Pendleton, the Chairman of the meeting was author ized to apfioint a new executive commit tee for the Eleventh District, one from county. A committee of three gentlemen, consisting of J. W.

After thanking the convention for the honor conferred uj»on him, Judge Mer shon said the new Eleventh was setting up housekeeping a* a district, and that many dangers were to lie met and overcome.

Appling was the find called, hut yield ed to Glynn; and Brooks, the home county of the gallant Turner, announced that she would yield to Glynn aud al low that county to place her favorite j son before the convention. At this |Miint editor McCook, of the i "'ill Brunswick Time*, arose to make.the limous nominating iqieech. He was at his best pposi- j an ,| itpoke eloquently ami enthusiasti cally for Mr. Turner. He said that Glynn had many gifted sons in her bor ders who would represent the new dis able and creditably, but recogniz ing the ability of the gifted Georgian, the Democracy of Glynn had looked to the extreme western county in the dis et for a man to represent the jteopie the halls of Congress. He paid a glowing tribute to Mr. Turner as a cit izen, soldier aud statesman—a tuau above reproach, pure minded, noble and honest in the private walks of life and the equal of the most brilliant men in Congress—just the man to go among the people and teach them pure Democratic gospel. He said with Mr. Turner a* our standard l*earer the Third party would be destroyed in it* swaddling clothes before the election. “There will he no division* in our ranks, hut we will elect the men we nominate. We will send a straight Democratic ticket, head ed by Grover Cleveland for President.” At the first uiention of Mr. Turner’s name and the name of Grover Cleveland there wa* tremendous applause. A tube conclusion of Mr. McCook’s speech the Secretary proceeded with the coll of counties. Charlton yielded to Camden and in behalf <ff the delegation of that county, Mr. Lawrence stated that they had been instructed to cast their vote f«»r Spencer IL Atkinson, hut recog nizing the lact that Turner wa* the choice of a large majority of the people of the district the delegation* from Camden and Charltou had resol veil not to offer Atkinson’s name to the Convention, but desired to make the nomination of Mr. Turner unanimous. The applause was almost deafening, and inanv admirer* of the distinguished statesman, gave vent to their enthusiasm by sending up a genuine Democratic war-whoop. On motion of editor McCook the rules of the convention were suspended and the nomination of Mr- Turner wa* made unanimous by acclamation, amid tre mendous applause. The feature of the platform which will mark the fighting line of the cam paign is its tariff plank. The nomina tion of Cleveland on this platform draws the issue sharply between tlio partie Under the banner of Cleveland an tariff reform the democracy of the m tion, if it opposes a united front to the enemy, will march to certain victory. - Boston Globe.
