DID NOT TAKE WITH THE COUNTY
ALLIANCE
At Their Meeting Last Thursday--They Are
Democrats--Mr. Stevens Endorsed.
That there is a strong Third party sen
timent in Tevrell county cannot be lon-
Zer denied.
The movement is yet inits infancy, and
will grow stronger as the matter is agi
tated. : §
Some of the people of Terrell county,
both in the country and city, are becom
ing tired of the Democratic party, and
will seek legislative relief through an
other channel, :
Since the defeat of the silver bill in
Congress the new candidate for political
‘honors has gained many recruits, and
some are inclined to think thatthe Third
party will have considerable strength in
Terrell county in a few month.
But a large majority of the farmers of
the county are Democrats, and they
demonstrated that fact at the meeting
of the County Alliance at Beulah last
Thursday.
During the session that day a well
known young farmer introduced resolu
tions endorsing the Third party. Some
strong Democratic speeches were made
against the resolutions, and they were
withdrawn before a test vote could be
taken.
The alliance had a pleasant session
that day, and before adjourning passed
i the following resolutions;
I Whereas, The various county alliances
of the Second Uongressional District did
send delegates to Cuthbert to a conven
tion that met there on February 25th for
the purpose of suggesting . a suitable
candidate to be presented to the voters
of the district, and
Whereas, The said Cuthbert conven
tion suggested Hon. O. B, Stevens, our
distinguished fellow citizen, for the Ligh
place of Congressman for our district,
therefore be it
Resolved, That we, the delezates from
the different sub-alliances of Terrell
county, do hereby ratify and endorse
said suggestion most heartily, and that
we take great pleasure in presenting the
name of O. B. Stevens to our fellow eiti
zens of the Second Congressional Dis
trict as a man in every way worthy to
represent them in Congress.
Resolved further, That we respectful
ly call the attention of the voters of the
district to the emphatic endorse
ment given Mr. Stevens by his
own county at the primary election held
on Tuesday of this week, when, after a
thorough and exhaustive canvass made
by Judge Guerry, his opponent, Mr.
Stevens was given a majority of 276,
and polled nearly two votes to his oppo
nent’s one. This endorsement was giv
en Mr. Stevens by men who know him,
and against decidedly the most popular
man that could be brought against him.
Resolved further, That we earnestly
call on the alliancemen of this district
to join with us in carrying forward our
standard bearer to a glerious victory.

Involuntary Manslaughter.
Last Thursday Mr. W. R. Pritche
ard, charged with murdering Mr.
Fred Foreman, had a preleminary
hearing in Dawson before Justices
Statham, Simmowns and Anthony.
The prosecution claimed, and en
deavored to prove, that the homicide
‘was murder, while the theory ot the
defense was that Foremsn was aceci
dentally killed while Pritchard was
attempting to arrest him.
Both sides introduced a large num
ber of witnesses.
After hearing the evidence, the
court bound Mr. Pritchard over tor
manslaughter under a 8750 bond.
The bond was promplly given.

THE FROST FLAG.
The White Flag With the Black Center
| ‘Waved Over the City Saturday.
Dawson now has a weather service,
and the approach of every cold spell will
be heralded in advance.
Last week Tne NEws noted the fact
that the city council had made arrange
ments for weather signals, and that Daw
son would soon have a weather bureau.
The flags cam= in last Friday, and ar
rangements were made to display them
from the top of the Baldwin Block.
The first weather flag ever in Dawson
floated in the breezes Saturday afternoon.
While all the people in town were stand
ing around with their teeth chattering
with the cold, Mayor Cheatham received
a telegram Atlanta announcing that
there would be frost that night, and di
recting that the cold wave flag be dis
played.
Mayor Cheatham had beea waiting
all day forinstructions about the weathor,
and a few minutes later the white ban
ner with its black center was floating
from the top of the Baldwin Block.
The records show that the heavy frost
in 1891, which killed off the fruit crop,
and took thousands of dollars out of the
pockets of the farmers, commenced on
April sth, and on the 6th the glass fell
to 26 degrees above zero.
Although Saturday and Sunday were
cold days no frost appeared on those
nights, and as the cold snap passed off
without any damage being done the far
mers say they feel reasonably sure of
making a good fruit crop.

BILL HOWE IN JAIL.
A DAWSON CHARACTER IN THE
DOOLY COUNTY PRISON
For Stealing a Horse and Bugey from a
Cordele Liveryman.--He Says He
Was Drunk.
Last week Tiue NEws mentioned the
fact that a telegram had been received
here by the officers asking for the arrest
of Wm. C. Howe, a well-known character
in Dawson, on the charge of horse steal
ing,
Howe appeared in Dawson, after an
absence of a year or more, several days
before the telegram was roceived. He
was neatly dressed and was looking un
usually well.
He disappeared as suddenly as he came,
and no one thought anything of his com
ing or going until the telegram came.
Howe was traced to Fort Gaines, where
he was arrested, and he now occupies a
cell in the Dooly county jail charged
with a erime that will more than likely
land him in the penitentiary.
FThe following particulars o his esca
pade are from the Vienna Progress:
“Boys, this is what drinking whisky
brings a man to. I can't deny having
‘hired that horse and buggy and carried
\it off and sold it, and if some reliable
man were to come to me and t-1l me that
I had committed murder I could dot de
ny it, for I don't know. I was erazy
drunk.and don’t have any recollection of
anything that occurred at all,”
Will C. Howe, a white man of about 35
years of age, walked slowly into jail and
sat down in one of the cells upon a mat
tress, As the key was being turned upon
him he made the above remark to a
crowd of bystanders.
He has been traveling over the eoun
try selling a recipe for making cider.
Two weeks ago yesterday he went to Mr,
W. H. Thornton, who a ruas a lively
stable at Cordele, and hirved a horse and
buggy from him to do some drumming
through the country. He drove the horse
and buggy over to Abbeville, sold both
and skipped out. Mr. Thortiton of course
began a search for his horse and buggy at
the proper time, and soon found them.
When he did so he set about finding
Howe, and he was arrested last week at
Fort Gaines, Ga. He was brought to
Cordele and in nefault of bail was sent
to jail.
He takes his imprisonment very well,
saying that he got on a crazy drunk over
at Abbeville and didn’t remember any
thing that occurred for several days, and
that “*whisky did it all.”
