or The Democratic convention
to nominate a candidate for con
gress will meet in Sandersville
next Tuesday. No opposition to
Major Barnes has appeared, and lie
will very likely be nominated by
acclamation. There is not a pulse
of excitement on the subject in the
district.
Or The Greenesboro Home
Journal says that a man named L.
D. Sullivan, representing himself io
be connected with The Citizen
was in that county. We know of
no such man, never before heard of
a man by that name, and we know
that no man now connected with
The Citizen has been in Greene
county since the latter part of Au
gust, 1878. The Journal must,
therefore, be mistaken, or L. I). Sul
livan is a fraud.
TIIK SITUATION.
Our readers are doubtless anxious
to know the political situation, and
* we give the following as the best
exposition of the political prospects
that has come under our observa
tion.
True to the law governing such
matters, the pendulum which
swung towards Cleveland's side, is
swinging to the other. There Is no
question about the fact in the mind
of any one able to penetrate
beneath the surface. The only ques
tion is as to the reasons.
In the first place the puncturing
by General Butler of the New York
governor set people to thinking,
and created doubts about his capac
ity to “stand the racket.” Butler
did it with relish, the reasons for
which may not lie understood by
some. He did ii to Cleveland be
cause be is presented as Tilden’s
heir. Last fall, when Butler was
nominated for governor of Massa
chusetts, on returning from a brief
visit to Washington, he found that
Tilden had been interfering and at
tempting to set up things to beat
him. To Tilden General Butler be
lieves his defeat due more than to
any one else. No heir of Tilden will
receive Butler’s support for presi
dent. Butler swings just free
enough for that. Nor would he
confine his influence to Massachu
setts. As Tilden saw fit to send bis
agents into Massachusetts against
Butler, the general would go him
self into New York—and elsewhere,
perhaps—to return the compliment
should Cleveland be the Democrat
ic candidate.
The growth of sentiment the week
past, has been in another direction
than Cleveland. Nor is Butler the
sole or principle reason. John Kel
ly is as much against Cleveland as
Butler is, and there are others
who agree with John Kelly. The
anti-Cleveland men, though not
able to execute all their purposes,
held in subjection the Cleveland
men at Saratoga. Letters have
been written making this clear.—
The decline of the Cleveland boom
lias been not less on this account
than from what has been learned
about the man and the kind of pres
ident he would make, points about
which inquiry has just become rife,
and not with satisfactory results in
most instances. The upshot of it is
that Democrats who were crazy
over Cleveland have become luke
warm, with a prospect of going as
far to the other side.
So much is there of this sort of
thing that a Tilden rival is immin
ent, despite his declination. This,
however is true only of the light
weights in the party, the hard
heads not giving much countenance
to the suggestion. The desire for
success is becoming a passion with
Democrats who a short time ago
were willing to let success go to the
dogs rather than give up certain
ideas or abandon men of their
choice.
To settle the# interesting ques
tion whether or not a majority of
the New York delegates to the Na
tional Democratic Convention is
heartily in favor of the nomination
of Governor Cleveland, and will,
therefore, under the unit rule secure
a nucleus of 72 votes for other
Clevelanders to rally around, the
New York lltrald has communica
ted with the 72 delegates and ascer
tained as far as practicable their
actual preferences. The net result
is that 30 are out-spoken in their
preference for Cleveland, 7 are
known to bo for him, 10 are non
committal, 13 were not reached by
the HerauVa interviewers or tele
grams, 5 ure for Bayard, 1 is for
Flower, and 1 is for Hancock. This
is taken to mean that Cleveland’s
majority is pretty certain. The
omission to “instruct” the delegates
was not it seems an exceptional
thing. The Herald says:
“The Democratic state conven
tion in 1880, when the delegates
were particularly a unit for Tilden’s
nomination, did not instruct, but
adopted the unit rule, as was done
at .Saratoga Wednesday. The cus
tom of our state conventions, in
fact, has not been to instruct its
delegates to vote for any partiqular
candidate, but to cast their vote as
a unit for the person of their
choice.”
The Albany correspondence of
the World gives an intelligible rea
son why the friends of Cleveland
thought it best in this instance to
conform to the rule:
“They say it is not a part of their
scheme to have the name of Cleve
land go before the Chicago conven
tion as a New York candidate sim
ply, but upon the broader platform
of a national candidacy. He has,
they claim, acquired a national rep
utation. and if he had displayed in
any other state than New York
those qualities which so eminently
lit him to lead the Democracy to vic
tory, he would be urged as strong
ly for the nomination as he now is.
He is not to be regarded as asec-
tioual candidate in any sense of
that term, and if the Chicago con
vention fails to appreciate the gov
ernor in the light fn which he will
be presented—as u candidate for
the people—they will not attempt
tv bolster him up as a sectional or
New York man. They are pefectly
satisfied, however, with the action
of the Saratoga convention, and do-
(dare their full confidence in the
belief that lie will be the presiden
tial nominee at Chicago. They as
sert that it was at no time a part of
their campaign plan to have the
convention instruct its delegates in
favor of Cleveland.”
The New York Times asserts
Cleveland’s ability to carry New
York, and ventures an explanation
of some attempts that are being
made to exaggerate the signif
icance of the omission to instruct
for Cleveland and the discontent of
Tammany as follows:
“The enemies ofGovernor Cleve
land were made by his unswerving
adherence to a high standard of
official action are trying hard to
induce prominent Democrats at
Washington and elsewhere to be
lieve that there is really a formida
ble opposition to him in tills state,
and that the action of the Saratoga
convention was unfavorable to his
candidacy in Chicago. All that
was done at Saratoga was to avoid
a contest on the matter, and leave
the nomination to be made by the
national conventior. As the gov
ernor’s friends had the power in
their hands, this action indicated
full confidence in his strength
throughout the country, based on
the admirable record he has made
in this state, That Cleveland can
carry the state by a vote which no
other Democrat can command we
regard as certain. It is equally
certain that lie can carry the
neighboring states of Connecticut
and New Jersey, and there is a
strong probability (hat Massachu
setts and New Hampshire will go
with them. There is also plenty of
evidence that the reform governor
Is strong in the- .South and West,
and would gather up more doubtful i
votes than any other candidate,—
Opposition that comes from disap
pointed applicants for official fa
vors is always active, but never
extensive.

Mr. Geo. V. billing, of Manches

so helpless that she could not turn

not deceived, The masses of die
Democratic voters in the county are
not so gullible—not so easily hood
winked as you would suppose,
“True Citizen.”
They understand too well the
methods of the junta, and you are
presumed to be the mouth organ
for them. I may do them an injustice
in classing you as their leader, for
they might except to it. If so, I
tender them the amende.
You have much to say about
office seeking. Nobody will hardly
blame you for your position in this,
for it may be that you have long
since seen the futility of such a
tiling on your part, for prudential
reasons. Perhaps it is wise for you
to join the “Arcadians,” as “office
lightning” does sometimes strike in
among them—though monstrous
seldom for a fact. It is not con
sidered a crime in this country to
seek office, and very wisely and
fortunately too, because we would
have such slim juries to try the
prisoners at the bar. I have seen
the practical working of this Arca
dian idea to a large extent. My ex
perience is that most of them are
only Arcadians when the other
man is ahead; and they consider it
no violation of honor or consistency
to adopt “commercial methods” if it
appears they are to win by it. There
is a deal of “poppy-cock” in this
“Arcadian” theory. The people—
the white people, who are the Dem
ocrats—of Burke county are a brave,
honest ehivalrie people, and coupled
to these manly attributes, they are
a fair and a just people. They are
amply able—have sufficient intel
ligence, and the moral courage
withal to tell the true from the false,
even though “True Citizen” or your
humble scribe bad failed to enlight
en them. The mass meeting on the
7th day of July should be attended
by every Democrat in the county
and let them elect an executive
committee that will reflect honor
and credit on the county—that will
not use their official positions to
serve any one man or set of men,
but with a determination to serve
the best interests of the Democratic
party of the state in general, and of
Burke county in particular. Men
of enlarged views, broad, compre
hensive men that can command the
admiration and co-operation of the
whole Democratic party of the
county, and not owe allegiance to a
faction only. The way to do it is
easy; let a majority control, and a
complete acquiescence by the
minority. This is all I ask or want.
This is Democratic—this is right.
Anything else is a farce.

Mr. Editor:—In the last issue of
your paper, under the head of
“Democratic Harmony,” and signed
by “True Citizen,” was an article
that deserves, if not demands, a
reply. The writer, whoever lie is,
seems to be in much tribulation
about the status of political matters
in our county, and with a sympa
thy born in my nature I have rack
ed my mental faculties to discover
some panacea for bis many troubles
—to be able to give him some balm
for his wounds—for lie does seem
hurt—some word of consolation
fitly spoken to relieve his manifold
embarrassments, and hereby tender
my labored suggestions. To avoid
tlie ills, political, that doth so sorely
beset him, lie had better “Hee unto
the mountains of Hepsidum, where
the lion roareth, and the whang-
doodle mourneth for his first born,
ah;” or lie could call in some dis
ciple of Aesculapius, him, of
Hogarth’s fancy—who would per
haps diagnose an extreme case of
“billiousness” and prescribe there
for a maximum dose of Simmons’
Liver Regulator, or advise the po

to Ins perturbed spirit, be might

“This world Is not so bad a world
As soioo would Uko to luuko It,
Whether good or whether bad,
Depends on how you tako It.”
But my pen runs riot witli sugges
tions and 1 must desist.
He commences bis article by say
ing that “It is all stuff to talk about
harmonizing the different elements
constituting the Democratic party
of Burke. It can’t bo done,” This.
Mr. Editor, is a very strange and
reimtrkablo statement for one so
“truly loyal.” Well, I say, it can be
done, and by the very simplest and
plainest of Democratic rules, name
ly, let the voice of the majority be
the will of the party, which is true
Democracy. But, sir, here comes
the rub. If “True Citizen” will own
squarely up, 1 think he will say that
be was in the “minority” two years
ago and lent his valuable aid and
assistance to disrupting the party
on that occasion. Am I to under
stand that when lie says now that
“the party can’t be harmonized,”
that lie and his associates—the Im-
maculates—as ho wishes to term
them, are engaged in hutching out
another “preliminary question” to
disrupt tin* party in its mass meet
ing on July the 7th ? If lie does not
mean this, what can ho mean? Is
it not putting the county on notice
that should the junta of court-house
politicians in the party find them
selves in the minority that they
will have another “preliminary
question,” or its equivalent to have
an excuse to bolt? Such notice is
unnecessary. The party in the
county already understand that, to
carryout their end, the junta will
invoke any trick that ingenuity can
suggest, or bold-faced audacity exe
cute.
1 know it is “gall and wormwood”
to the junta to see tlie Democracy
of the county rise up in their might
and rebuke the pretenders that
have so long held the* political man
agement of the county. But they
will do It. How they do lord It over
the “political heritage” when In
possession of a temporary advant
age! But let the scene only change,
let defeat stare them in the face,

Editor True Citizen:— Please give space in
your columns for a short communication
from the old 118th district. I am glad to say
lifter our fanners have worked so hard and
cultivated their crops well, the present pros
pect is promising Indeed fora good result.
May the seasons continue that the laborer
may have an abundant harvest. I trust that
a good crop may lie made tills year, and lhut
our people may he so endowed with wisdom
us to select proper and the right men for the
many otllccs that arc to tic ailed this year.
There appears to he great Interest felt by a
good many of our people In the matter In this
section, t notice the names of Cup.. Thus. It.
Cox, and Capt. K. I. Heath, announced in the
Citizen last week for the legislature, Isith of
those gentlemen are good men. I believe, In
the first of the late war, I was with Capt. Cox,
In Virginia, eight .or ten months,and must say
that I never saw a better man, and I cannot
hut appreciate his kindness to me during my
stay with him, and do earnestly trust that he
may have the solid support of our people, ns
I believe him to be the right man In the right
placed ('elected. I cannot help hut speak, too,of
my old Captain H. 1. Heath, whom I was with
the two lust years of the war. lie was ever
at Ids post In the faithful discharge of his
duties, and true to his country; and was ever
ready to go forth to meet the enemy; and
I hope he may he successful In conquering
the coming political battle, If met by any op
position. Muccoss to both the Captains.
As we have seen hut two names announced
as oiimlhllltog for the legislature, as yet, the
communicator would like very mueh to see
the mime i>f our old friend Alexander Lively,
of the tilth district, added to make up the
ticket, end think that the Democratic party of
Iturke could not compose a hotter tiukot, us
the two already announced lire both good
men, uml Squire Lively l believe to be a man
of Hue Judgment, atiu nothing hula perfect
gentleman, and do hope to see those three
gentlemen composing the Democratic ticket,
for the legislature. As for senator, Dr. E. A.
Perkins, Is the only dcflnutc candidate we
know ol as yet. We notice that Ills likely
that there are other horses tied out. I guess
those horses will soon he led up to the man
ger for their feed, perhaps they may ho la
time to get a sufficiency vet The Dr. appears
to bu the choice of numbers of people, he Is
already being put In trim for the nice. From
his appearance he has been fed from the Hrst
table for some time, and is hoped by many
(hut he will he first at the ensuing election.
The Dr. appears to he well equipped for the
race. Home correspondent to the Citizen
last week asked if certain things were facts,
why not set tlie Dr. up asa public taiget ami
shoot him square into the senate chamber,
lllIMt people like myself, like a large target

communicator hopes to see a full attendance
at the mass meetlhgof the Democratic party
on the 7th of July In Way unshorn, and trust
that proper steps will he taken hv the party as
we believe will he, and that all things may he
done for the very host interest of our old coun
ty and conn ry generally. I believe la a true

For its value in swamp fever
please read the following:
Dr. Edward Barry.—Dear Sir:
Years ago, while living on tlie river
swamp plantation, I was afflicted
with very severe cases of Chills and
Fever. I tried every remedy f
could think of to break tlie chills,
but I failed to do so. Tlie disease
finally got to such a state that large
doses of quinine failed to give even
temporary relief. Seeing an ad
vertisement of yours, in which you
proclaimed tlie merit of your“South-
ern Malarial Antidote,” I deter
mined to give your medicine a trial.
I bought one bottle, and after tak
ing the first dose I experienced im
mediate relief. I continued taking
the medicine until the bottle was
exhausted. Since taking the medi
cine I have not had a single case of
chill and fever up to the summer of
the present year. The present year
I rented a plantation which is
characterized hy tlie people of the
county as tho “headquarters of
malaria.” I wished to plant the
place in question on account of its
adaptation to rice. Mindful ofyour
valuable medicine I determined to
risk tho place. Early in July I had
three eases of fever and ague. I
sent for a bottle of your medicine at
once, but only used half of it. The
other half I gave to my servant,
who in like manner was afflicted.
Both myself and servant were com
pletely restored to health and have
had no recurrence of tlie disease. I
induced two of my neighbors who
were afflicted with fever and ague
to use your medicine, which result
ed in their recovery,and like myself
they have had no roourretteo of the
malady. I am still living on the
aforesaid plantation, and am as
bouyant and vigorous as if I was
living in a most genial elitne. I
will not attempt to portray the
merits of your valuable medicine,
for I could not adequately do justice
to such a subject. I will simply say
it ranks first among medicines, and
certainly in malarial countries it
has no equal. I cheerfully recom
mend your medicine to every fami
ly in the land. Wishing you every
success, I am gratefully yours,
J. D. TWIGGS.
