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. ///« mV* mnt put In eJUunM/e. 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.

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 A BAD ACCIDENT. The Atlantic Coast Line near FI ice, wna the scene of a bad accident Saturday last.
