TuURsDAY, NOVEMBER 20TH., 1884
The undersigned has taken
eharge of the JO®RNAL as its bus
iness manager and announces to
its friends and patrons that the
paper will be continued and pub
lished every week as heretofore.
Mr. E. L. Rainey, a-competent and
courteous gentleman, will remain
in the office and receipt for all bills
and subscriptions.. :
The paper is ina healthy condi
tion and is one of the best paying
enterprises in Southwest Georga.
For reasons recognizable by all, I
offer For SALE the entire outfit.
The office is complete for both Job
and Press Work. A good bargain
is offered to the right man. Ad
dress me either at Dawson or Grif-

Business Manager.
Mrs. Lockwood can now go back
to her knitting. J
St. John will now resume his
cold water business in Califor
nia, '
Blaine “gracefully bows,” but
we suspect it costs him no little
pain.
It seems that it was the people
who “Cast an anchor to wind
ward.”
Mr. Blaine, of Maine, did not
have as much magnetism as his
chums thought he had. |
Gov. MeDaniel's message to the
legislature is an able document.
A synopsis of it can be found on
our first page. .
The politiciaus are already mak
ing up Cleveland’s cabinet. Sena
tor Joe Brown is - mentioned as
one of the members.
It was under the rule of the
South that this country attained
its greatest glory. It will be un
der the same rule that it does so
again. :
The Plumed King is now pond
ering over “departed hopes.” He
will retire into oblivion and obscu
rity and pull the republican par
ty in after him.
President Arthur has issued a
proclamation _to the effect that
Thursday next, the 27th inst, be
observdd as ‘s day of national
thanksgiving. - £l
A Jersey girl made s bet that
she would vote on Tuesday. She
disguised herself in a suit of her
brother’s clothes and marched up
to the polls like a little man.
Judge B. B. Bower has been
re-slected Judge of the Albany
circuit. Hon. W. N. Spence, of
Camilla, deated Mr. Jesse Walters,
of Albany, for Solicitor-General
of the circuit, :
Governor MeDaniel's inaugural
address is an elegant, eloquent
and masterly document. Itis a
noble and splendid presentation
of the cause of Georgia, and the
South.
There are few happy black fac
os to be seen now. The colored
troops have been so accustomed
to victory that they can not under=
stand defeat. Itis for them a
new lesson in politics.
John Kelly promised that Tam
many wounld honestly support
Cleveland and Hendricks. We
believe that Mr. Kelly and the
great mass of Tammany voters
stood up to the pledge.
® The radieal liars are now pub
lishing that the Confederate fiag
was run up on the capitol when
Cleveland’s election was wired to
Atlanta. We have noidea that
anybody thought of a Confederate
flag.
New York’s vote is all eounted
snd Cleveland's plurality is a cer
tainty at 1,107. Blaine has given up
all hopes and there remain’s noth
ing for the democrats to do but to
take possession of the government
in March next and gives & pure
administration.
The South now feels a peeuliar
interest in this government. She
casts 153 electoral votes for Cleve-
Jand and inzured his eleetion, and

THE END.
The dispatch of Mr. Elkins, the
chief director of the Blaine cam
paign, admitting the election of
Cleveland by a plurality of twelve
! hundred in the State of New York,
‘says the Macon Telegraph, ends
‘all doubt. There was a feeling of
E anxiety and uneasiness through
out the country while the count
ing of votes was being held, that
unsettled business and unfitted
men for their ordinary pursuits.
Everyboldy will acquiesce in this
peaceful solution of an exciting
question, and the Democratic par
ty will have the government turn
ed over to them on the fourth day
of March next. Upon its wisdom
and moderation for the succeeding
four years must depend, not only
the prosperity and happiness of
the people, but the question as to
whether it shall be granted a
further lease of power.
The Republican party is defeat
ed, but not annihilated. It is yet
powerful in numbers, diseipline
and a desire to regain its lost pow
er, and will stand as a sleepless
sentinel at the door of its victori
ous opponent.
About ten days ago, two negroes
asked permission to stay all night
at the house of Mr. Smith, in
Cherokee county, Alabama. Mrs
Smith (a daughter of A. M. Yan
cey, of this county,) told them,
“No, Mr. Smith is not at home.”
They said they would stay, and
commenced breaking down the
door. Having warned them, she
fired, and they left. Next morn
ing one of them was found deal,
some distance from the house, his
companion having dragged him
of —Ex. .
There is said to be great suffer
ing among the mill operatives at
Lewiston, Maine. Hundreds are
out of employment because of
the shutting down of the mills.
The mills have shut down because
under the artificial stumulus of a
high protective taraff production
has run ahead of consumption—
the tariff having destroyed the
foreign market for American man
ufacturers. It is a wretched sys
tem of lying, greed, imposture and
robbery. :
An old and experienced insur
ance man has been investigating
the cause of 50 many fires through
out the State. He states the opin
ion that much of it is the work of
the vast army of tramps who in
fest the country. There shouid
be some means employed to rid
the country of this pest. They
should be promptly arrested under
the vagrant law.
Fifteen years ago the Radicals
controlled every Southern State.
To-day they are strangers in all
of them. Four years hence they
will be beaten in every State in
the Union. The “grand old party”
has fallen to pieces from the sheer
weight of its own rottenness and
corruption. But they held power
a long time.
A cruel parent at Meridian,
Miss., put® his daughter in a pri
insane asylum to keep her from
marrying the young man of her
choice. With the assistance of a
lawyer and judge, the y. m. was
enabled to laugh at the man who
furnished the hardware for the
asylum, and the loving couple are
now enjoying the honeymoon.
A grand and glorious victory
has just been achieved by the
democracy, and we trust that
whatever acts the party may do
will be coupled with wisdom and
moderation. We are now in the
enjoyment and the confidence of a
majority of the American people,
and may it never be betrayed.
Hon. C. C Kibbee, of Hawkins
ville, bas been elected Judge of the
Oconee circuit. We are acquaint
ed with Judge Kibbee and venture
the assertion that the courts of no
other circuit will be presided over
by an abler jurist. Col. Kibbee
would grace any office in the gift
of the people.
The mysterians crenk at Peeks
kill, N. Y., who has been hugging
and kissing all the women of the
town, has at least been captured.
He refured to give his name or
residence. Quite a number of in
nocent parties have been arrested
by the amatenr detectives.
From all sources we learn that
great demonstrations over the suc
cess of the demoeraey still eontin
ue. Let the good work go on; we
have a right to rejoice, and we are
going to do it. It reminds us of
s ove have witpessed in good
o d campemeeting days,

No Negroes at Her Table. ‘
The Warrenton Clipper says |
that a few days since a theatrical
troupe en route to Macon stopped
over at Camak fir dinner. As
they were taking their seats
around the tabie at Mrs. Wright's
hotel, a black, robust negro woman,
who was with the party, marched
up to the table and attempted to
take a seat also. Mrs. Wright
anticipated the design and order
ed her tothe kitchen, where it
was alone customary to serve
guests of her color. The members
‘}of the troupe were very vehement
in their opposition to what they
termed such an indignity to a
guest, and by threats of the law
insisted that the negro should
occupy a seat st the table. In
the person of Mrs. Wright, howev
er, they had come in contract with
a Southern woman with the fear
lessness characteristic of her peo
ple and their chon pet was soon
assigned to her appropriate situa
tion among the pots and kettles in
' the Lkitchen.
One of the guards of the Bibb
county chain gang found two white
women near the old ice [factory,
at the foot of Second street, engag
ed in eating a dinner of raw beef.
They would not give any informa
tion, but it it was afterwards
learned that they had checked a
trunk to Atlanta by the East Ten
nessee, Virginia and Georgia rail
road and were on tieir way to that
pace on foot and had stoppel at
the old ice fuctory to eat dinner
The biggest one thing in all this
country is “the Solid South.”
Without her strong arm the ras
cals of Republican misrule would
never be turned outof the public
places of the government founded
by George Washington.
A fimale baseball elub will
shortly visit Milledgeville and
give the boys an exhibition of
their skill in this manly game
They are heading this way and
will play in Americos and Albany
in December.
A colored individual, in Albany,
named General Gabul, dunned
another colored brother for a debt
und received a charge of sma’l
shot in the left hip as pay.
