ENCOURAGING REFLECTIONS
Waycross, Gn., Nov. 5, 1!‘08,.
Mitors Herald: —
While much and por'Mps more than
enough 13 always Raid before an elec
tion, little la said or desired after
wards. Still it occurs to riio that a
few reflections ou tho present occa
sion may not bo amiss.
The history of tho past ns well as
the result of the election on Tuesday
demonstrates that however the people
may be divided on certain (yjcbUoitb
and however the people may spring
up, but two great political parties, the
democratic and republican, divide tho
people of this country.
And as in our republic where govern
meat is udrolnietrerod by party, It Is
essential whether In or out of pow
Pai party organization be .maintain'
and aside front the benefits of me
office holding u party while out ot
power may nevertheless accomplish
groat good fur tho country
While* the question of slavery was
involved, yet back anil above it was
tho question of constitutional pro
jection, states rights and local self
government, advocated by tbo demo
cratic party and for which tho south
contended in the civil war, and al
though thi; republican party, and tho
north were victorious, yet by^rtoady
adhoruiuv principle) ami generally
in tho minority and .out of power wo
have gradually seen hi nee the war
’principles triumph in '.-*f3V
nation and upheld by the courts.
Let us therefore not despair
cause of the defeat of our democratic
national ticket on Tuesday. \Ve not
culy have our democratic state gov
ernments of the south to nmlntufn*to
continue to bless in with good local
elf government but democratic gov
ernors were elected on Tuesday in
several. northern states, and besides
•.vo will Continue to have a elrong dem
ocratic minority in Consroarf to hold
the republlcano in chock and /contend
for our rights. With tho republican
party la power and supported by pre-
ditory wealth, tho* monopolies and
irutsts, cn every favored interest
under the existing high protective
ariiT, our groat democratic loader,
William J. Bryan, made tho most mag-
nlilclent fight lu tho interest of the
people tho wcrlJ-has ever witnessed,
ington, D. t\. u in W
consulting with the ci
tdonerg in regard to a ucw jail.
Several grund Juries have reconi-
n ended the construction of ;t mw Jail
in this city, but because of the s.iort-
a 3<> of funds tile commissioners have
delayed action in the matter. The
question will be brought u > before
the grand jury low in ^esrlon, a i l if
a recommendation Is secured it ii
very probablo the county commission
«ra will arrange for its construction.
For sonio years tbo Ware count;
jail has boon Inadequate to care fo.
tho prisoners properly, both whites
and blacks being lodged in the aarno
room, the only separation being tlio
cell doors.
If a new Jail Is constructed it will
doubtless bc located on the lot owned
by tho county JuGt in tho rear ofthe
ourt house.
ami though defeated It will bo found
he polled six or seven Lililions of
votes and that tho popular majority
arainet him Ip small.
Like Ciay, Wcbjtor and Calhoun,

United States bul Ids great work lu
