lion—perhaps is—to sacrifice the
last and remaining one.
In view of these facts, perhaps it
will occur to thoughtful men, with
a stake in the community, as it lias
to us, that perhaps it would be wise
if the editors of sundry country
weeklies he enjoined from the im
mediate destruction of the Tele
graph and Messenger.
It is in position to do service in
behalf of the people, and it lias
never yet failed to stand between
them and men who are actuated
and controlled by selfish purposes.
It behooves the people of the entire
State to give this matter prompt
and serious consideration.
Under the caption of “The Com
ing Issue in Georgia Politics,” the
Macon Telegraph sounds thfi alarm
to the people of Georgia in regard
to the sale of the State Hoad. The
citizens of Georgia are in danger,
imminent danger,of losing this mag
nificent property which has cost
them so much, ^e have long been
aware that schemes were at work
to wrest tliis road Iron; the people,
and have several times issued our
warning. The time seems to have
come when these schemes are to be
put into execution, and with it lias
come the time when the people of
Georgia must elect a legislature
whose integrity is absolutely too
stern to be bought. Every man of
fering himself as a candidate for
the general assembly should be
forced to put himself upon record
upon this question, and pledged to
oppose this sacrifice of the people’s
property. The Telegraph says:
“To every observant man in
Georgia it has been plain that the
next great issue calculated to con
vulse the state, is the sale of the
state road. Commencing with the
late Cole charter, which was intend
ed to cripple this great property,
and to depreciate its value, the
movement has been quietly hut
surely maturing. We did not ex
pect that it would so soon acquire
strength enough in the Judgment of
the manipulators to be presented to
the public. But it has come, and
the people may as well prepare
themselves to meet it.
The Louisville Courier-Journal of
the 8th instant contains this special
dispatch from Atlanta:
Atlanta, September 7.—There is
great interest centering in the elec
tion of the next Georgia Legislature,
which takes place in October. It
will have to arrange for the pay
ment of .$5,000,000 of the State’s debt,
and will have to inaugurate such
legislation as will meet another
draft of $5,000,000, which falls duo
before the succeeding Legislature
can handle it. The debt thus to he
met is as follows: In 1885-’8G, $200,-
000 each year of the ’GO and ’73
bonds, making $100,000; in 1880,
$3,000,000 of State road bonds of
1880. To this add the $50,000 bor
rowed in July last to meet a deficit
in the finances caused by an over
sight in the last Legislature; $200,-
000 each year for the building of
the new capitol. Then about $500,-
000 each year for current interest,
and there is the enormous amount
of $5,550,000 to bo provided for by
the coming Legislature, in addition
the usual appropriation for carrying
on the government. Further than
this, in 1889 $2,25)8,000 more of debt
falls due, means for meeting which
should be taken by the next legis
lature, then in 1880 $2,05)8,000. So that
with more than ten millions of
money to provide for in five years
and nearly six millions of that In
the next two years, it is not going
to be an easy task in the legislature
to steer clear between present op
pression and future burdens for the
people.
Among the measures likely to as
sume prominence as a remedy for
the heavy drafts on the State treas
ury will he the sale of the State
road. In 1872, when this road was
leased to ex-Governor Brown and
associates it was one of the best
paying roads in the country, and
politicians felt confident that its
sale would at uny time balance the
entire State debt. Since that time,
however, the State gave a charter
to the East Tennessee road, which
runs parallel to the State road much
of the way, the two tracks being in
sight of each other. The State road
is not now worth more than half its
valuation in 1872, and the prospect
is that it will steadily decrease.
'Hie conviction and fact that the
people will not submit to a heavier
rate of thaxation than at present,
will force the Legislature to sell the
road to meet the demands falling
due. The existing rate of taxation
Is insufficient to carry on the State
government, and the Governor was
compelled, last June, to borrow
$150,000’to ijoee.t the deficit,
Tllh sender of this dispatch is one
of the editors of the Atlanta Con
stitution. This gives it a signifi
cance that it could not otherwise
claim.
The initiatory movement is to be
made in the present campaign and
in the coming Legislature. As
there is no contest, save in a very
few counties, and many of the pri
maries have been hold, the manipu
lators of this schoino may feel con
fident of their men.
But the election is yet to he held,
and the people have the power still
in their hands to protect them
selves. Candidates can be com
pelled to avow themselves. If they
do not make ueLur and satisfactory
showing they can he defeated.
The Issue is a highly important one,

Mr. Editor:—A continued ab
sence of several weeks, except a
few days, when called home by tel
egram, to the bed-side of a sick son,
must account for my long silence.
You may think that I should have
given you the points incident to my
travels, hut my opinion is that such
are not interesting to the general
reader. I will note though, that the
counties in middle, eastern and
north-east Georgia are in a prosper
ous condition, real estate having
advanced 50 per cent, since the
adoption of the stock law, and I
know of nothing, that in my opini
on, that would add more to the
general prosperity ot our own, old
Burke, than the passage by our
citizens of the stock law, though I
know many of our best citizens
differ with mo in this respect.
I was on the passenger train from
Washington to Barnett, on which
occurred the death of the little soii
of Air. Armstrong, of Augusta—a
notice of which I have seen in our
valued Citizen. I never witnessed
anything more sad. The passengers
all seemed to realize the condition
of the little sufferer, and were anx
ious to render some assistance, but
were powerless. The Great Keeper
had claimed him, and amid the din
oft lie cars, as we sped oyer the
rails, the spirit of the little sufferer
took its flight to the God that gave
it; and many an eye was moist with
tears.
There lias been a great deal of
slcknem in our neighborhood this
season, hut the fatality lias been
light.
We aro pained to note the death
of Mrs. Frank Joiner. Blie leaves a
husband and six children to mourn
her loss.

or $100, we beg leave to decline, not
caring to play you again. If you or
any of you feel insulted by tliis you
can pick any man from the Lee B.

if you don’t know the full names of

cheerfully furnish you a list. So

Terrible Crime it Sea.
London, September 9.—Captain
Dudley, of the yacht Mignonette,
and the two seamen, who, with him,
survived the wreck of that vessel
in the Indian Ocean, were arrested
Saturday evening, and will be
charged in court Witli the murder
of the cabin boy Parker, who per
ished on the raft on which they
floated until picked up by the bark
Montezuma. From statements
made as to the nature of the testi
mony to be given, the case seems
likely to be one of tiie greatest sen
sations of the season^
One of the survivors states that
when desperation of hunger brought
them to the pass of hastening Par
ker’s death, each man still drew
back and signalled to another to do
the terrible deed. Parker, in his
weakness, was meanwhile oblivious
to the sceno around him. Finally
the Captain kneeled and prayed for
forgiveness for the act which he
was about to perform. He then ap
proached the boy and said:
“Now, Parker, the time has come.”
Tho lad, roused by these words,
and seeing the knife in Dudley’s
hands, realized the dread fate in
store for him.
“What! mo, sir?” ho cried ap
pealingly.
“Yesj my boy,” replied the Cap
tain, “it will be only one stab, and
all will be over.”
With these words lie plunged the
knife into the boy’s trembling form,
and almost before life was extinct
the crazed men wore quenching
their thirst witli the flowing blood.
