. That glory of Solomon who guides
the ship of stab* through the agency of
his unequalcd luminary, the Albany
News and Advertiser, was touched in a
sore spot—judging from his yelp—lo
an innocent statement of fact in a recent
issue of the Hkrai.d. Under such cir
cumstance* bis frenzied invective was
perhaps excusable, but would not be
worth dignified notice, were it not for
the fact that, either from reverence for
the author, or as a curio of fanaticism, 't
was considered of sufficient interest to
copy i n full iu the Rainbridge Democrat.
To our friend who is fairly and hon
orably in the race for Congress iu the
Second, we disavow any intention of in
justice, and simply stated what informa
tion we had received from prominent
lVmocrats in the Second, who
peers even of the celestial luminary of
Albany. But it is unnecessary to refer to
them, for the author of the aforesaid vol
canic eruption has admitted all we stated
in “Mr. Stevens has six out of the fif
teen,” and “if be (Mr. Russell), fail* to
get the nomination under a fair man
agement of affairs,” etc.
We apologise to our readers for giving
even a passing recognition to such eon-
temptable flings.

THE PEOPLE’S PARTI CONTENTION.
Atlanta, Ga., July 20, 1892.
To the Wavcwna* Hntui:
To-day has witnessed the first State
People’s Party convention of Georgia.
Every county was represented. The as
sembly hall of the Htate capital was
filled to overflowing with over five hun
dred enthusiastic delegates, and the gal
leries were packed during both sessions.
If this was an aggregation of office-seek-
as charged by the morning’s Consti
tution, the fact was not apparent as of
fices went begging and every nomina
tion was made promptly by acclamation.
In fact everything was done by acclama
tion, and there was not present a single
discordant element. Every delegate was
bent on a solemn purpose ami determi
nation was written in every face. Mr.
C. C. Post called the convention to order,
ami after a few remarks, which were
loudly cheered, be introduced Mr. M.
I. Branch, of Columbia county, for tem
porary chairman. Oscar Parker, of
Fulton and W. A. Echord, of Clinch,
were cho«en temporary secretaries.
There.was mi contest over delegates.
The following platform was adopted.
It was presented by Mr. Ellington :
We indorse and reaffirm the preamble,
resolution* and platform adopted by the
People’s party in national convention
assembled at Omaha, July 4th, 1892.
Second, we condemn the convict lease
system.
Third, we demand rigid economy in
all public matters and insist on every
|Kissible redaction of taxation during the
present impoverished condition of the
l>eople.
And we call public attention to the
fact that the producing interest in both
city and country is bearing more than
its fair share of taxation.
The following candidates were theu
nominated amidst tremendous enthuse
asm, by acchumitiou and by rising vote
W. L. Peek for governor, W. R. Gor
man for secretary of State, A. W. Ivov
for comptroller general, Dr. W. M.
Ware for treasurer, J. B. Mahaffer for
attorney general and J. G. Barrett for
commissioner of agriculture.
Speeches were delivered by Col. Peek,
Sam Small and others. The battle cry
is financial reform.
A miticable feature was the entire al»-
of personal invective and vilifica
tion. It.
WAYCROSS DEFEATS BRUNSWICK.
HENRY HOHEXSTEIN.
BEN. J. APPLE
Way crons and Brunswick crossed hats
for the second . time Tuesday. The
Brunswick team was a good one, but the
Way cross boys were too clever for them.
Three runs were made by the Bruns
wick club on the first inning. Over
this they grew very enthusiastic, and
yelled themselves almost hoarse. This
ipasmodic outbreak did not last however.
Their strength from this time on contin
ued to wane until the game was called.
The battery work of Strickland and
Schm-k, of the Waycroas team was
very cleverly done.
Holland's playing on second was ex
cellent, Aschraft’s fielding was good,
Reynold's work on first was fine, while
Allen's patience in center field was re
markable.

BRUNSWICK IN UJCK.
Washington, D. C., July 18.—
Brunswick is to get an aggregate appro
priation of $100,009 for dynamite expe
riments on her outer bar, if experiment*
are successful, under the leadership of
Judge Lester, ably seconded by Judge
Turner.
Such a measure has just passed the
House under a suspension of the rules.
Objector Holman did his bead, but the
justice of the Georgian’s claims was al
most unanimously recognized. The dy
namite experiments are to be managed
by OnL C. F. Goodyear.
If he obtains a depth of 22 feet (one
foot wore than the bar now has), the
government is to appropriate $100,000,
and an additional $100,000 for each
succeeding foot, till a depth of 20 fret is
reached; also an additional $25,000 if a
depth of 25 foci is maintained, and an
additional $25,000 if 26 fret i* main
tained. * C. Jf. R.
Kenan was fmed live dollars,
other parties were dismissed.
< Mir liase-hall team i* at home again,
and played yesterday against Birming
ham. The game was not altogether
isfactory and those who knew claimed
that there was “something rotten in
Denmark.” Birmingham won, the
beiug six to four. It seems im-
ptMtsible to play ball without continual
dissention. Matters were more exciting
account of I lie presence of a party of
gentlemen who came over from Birming
ham to witness the game, anti who l»et
heavily. They won the l»els, carried
home the Macon people's money, aud
now peace reigns once more. We are
to have a new pitcher, who i* expected
to down the other side every time.
Willie Bell, the 14-year-obl negro who
shot and killed officer Wilder, has been
sentenced to death, and will be bung on
August 18th. The execution will lie
private and will take place in the jail
yard.
The gaze of the social world is fixed
on the Imilding of the Ix»g Cabin Club
house, which is Wing erected by the
I»g Cabin Club four miles from the
city. It is located on a Wautiful emi
nence and the Metropolitan electric line
passes directly bv it. The building is
immense one story affair, and Wing
built entirely of logs will W a bona fide
log cabin. The grounds include twelve
acres and when the building
pitted it will W a most attractive spot.
The club was recently organized for the
purpose of establishing this out of town
resort for its own pleasure and that of its
friends. The club is composed of a
more of the most prominent
mernWrs of the Commercial Club, who
the sort of men to make a success of
this new social venture.
A vast majority of llie society girls
are spending the midsummer days at
various resorts near home,
markable tact that this season Macon
people have gone almost entirely to
Georgia resorts, with the exception of
very few who are summering in New
York. However, the maidens who
still in town are not at all forlorn, but
may W seen in their stylish turnout*
every afternoon. In tb«- whole history
of the city there were never so many
handsome equipages as at the present
time. The completion of the fine road
that Wits the city, and which is known
as the boulevard, has made driving
delightful pastime. Numberless canopy
pliaions and victorias are seen and sev
eral very dashv drays, drawn by bob-
tailed horses. S\ there are some com
pensations after all for staying at home
and for those who have no horses, the
possibilities of the electric car 6*r a
pleasure ride are greater than one would
imagine. Kuttu

loud applause, ami

modest little tinty bit of applause, away
down in one corner, that amounted to a
whisper—“only that and nothing more.”
Where are you Georgia? Neverthe-
havc a nice delegation when you
have found us. We fourtecu, minus the
Counecticutcrs and Michiganders, shook
hands au«l got acquainted and told our
exjieriences, etc. I wish 1 could re-
memlier some of those who represent our
State in this convention, but I can’t re
