TIIK CENSUS.
The Survival of the Fittest.
W \ VN ESBORO. GA.. JULY 13. 1889.
Mr. Chew, of Burke, has in-
troduoed a bill for a state normal
school.
A son of General Sherman
lias been ordained and is a priest of
the Catholic church.
iar In a few days the legislature
we hope will be ready to take some
action on the public roads.
The assessed property valu
ation of Chicago is $10*2,000,000, and
strange to say the recorded mort
gages on this same property foot up
$228,000,000.
cr Peace reigns at Samoa.—
Mataafa has disbanded his army,
and Tamassee is willing to cease
hostilities and await the result of
the Berlin conference.
0F" By a special act of congress
the widows of Presidents Polk, Ty
ler, Garfield and Grant are not re
quired to pay postage on any mat
ter that passes through the mails.
Chauncey Depew has time
enough to make frequent pleasure
trips to Europe, and yet he receives
as a quid pro quo for his services as
president af the Vanderbilt system
of railroads a salary of $50,000.
The railroad committee of
the legislature is reported to be
unanimous for the lease of the
Western and Atlantic. They who
pretend to be posted say that the
road can be leased for $40,000.
iar An Englishman is now in
New York whose mission is to show
Americans how to spend money,
lie has but recently become rich
and is enjoying it to its fullest ex
tent his annual income of $10,000,000.
There are now 48 stars on
our Uncle Sam’s star spangled ban
ner. There are really but 12 states
in the union, but as there will be
soon “more to follow” Secretary
Tracy has taken time by the fore
lock, and stolen a march on con
gress by placing six more new
states on the flag.
We are informed that Mr.
Carswell, who taught school here
2years ago, graduated this summer
at theVa. University law school,
brought home with him the highest
honors of that renowned institution.
Several years ago, Mr. Carswell,
when he graduated at our State
University was the first honor man
of his class.
A man’s sectionalism often
gets the better of his patriotism.
TheMacon Telegraph]is earnestly op
posed to Dr. Felton’s bill asking aid
for the State University. The rea
son is evident. Mercer college is in
Macon, and the aid ot the state to
its own university must be with
held because Macon’s Mercer col
lege cannot reap any of the bene
fits.
SJtT The Hon. It. L. Gamble, Jr.,
the member from Jefferson, has in
troduced a bill to do away with the
county court of his county. County
courts when properly managed are
of great good to a community, but
in many places they are unpopular
because the people think that the
emoluments of costs take prece
dence over the dealing out of jus
tice.
There was a few days ago a
destructive water spout in the state
of New York, and strange to say,
the town named Johnstown was the
greatest sufferer. There must be
something in a name. There were
several washouts along the line of
New York Central, and a stone
abutment was washed down while
a number of people were on it
watching the raging floods. Some
eight lives were lost.
0T Some of the citizens of
Washington Georgia, Augusta and
Thomasville have applied for the
charter of a railroad to run from
Augusta via Midville to Thomas
ville, and thence through Florida to
the Gulf coast. It connects at Mid
ville with the road running from
Midville to Swainsboro. If this
road is built and there is no devia
tion in its course, it will run through
Burke county, about ten miles
Southwest of Waynesboro, some
where in the neighborhood, of Cates-
ville. We publish upon our first
page to-day, an article from the Au
gusta Chronicle giving the details
in full.
Professor Siford, of the (col
ored) Clark University, at Atlanta,
became infatuated with a woman
of notoriously bad character from
Augusta. The professor hailed from
Ohio, and is a married man. His
Augusta inamorata went to Cincin
nati where they registered as man
and wife, but she refused to marry
him. Being detected in his carry
ing on, he at first threatened to end
his troubles with suicide, but his
faint heart got the better of him,
and he has absconded. He is a
shining light, sent by Northern phi
lanthropists to rescue the poor ne
gro from the immoral influences of
the Southern people.
The superintendent of the census
has divided Georgia into six dis
tricts. Burke is in the second dis
trict with the counties ot Clarke,
Columbia, Elbert, Glasscock,Greene,
Hancock, Hart, Jefferson, Lincoln,
Madison, Oglethorpe, Richmond,
Taliaferro, Warren, Washington
and Wilkes. There will be a super
visor for each district, but the ap
pointment will not be made until
next year. The work is to begin
on the 1st of next June and com
pleted by the 1st of July. Special in
quiries will be made as to the num
ber of negroes, mulattoes,quadroons,
and octoroons. Every head ot a
family who fails or refuses to ren
der a true account to the supervisor
of every person belonging to his
family will upon conviction be fined
$100. Any official of a corporation
who neglects or fails to give such
information as is required of him
shall be guilty of a misdemeanor
and will be fined not exceeding
$10,000. The rate of increase of pop
ulation for Georgians estimated at
30 per cent for the past decade,
which will give a population of
about 2,000,000.
A HILL TO APPOINT A JAIL INSPECTOR
A bill has been introduced in the
legislature for the appointment of a
physician who shall act as jail in
spector and receive the pay of
$2,000. His duty will be to inspect
every jail in the state at least once
a year. He will have power to
condemn all jails not constructed
with a view to comfort or health.
Whenever he decides that a jail
needs repairs or tearing down, he
shall make his recommendations to
to the judge of the superior court of
the circuit in which such jail is ioea-
ted, and if the judge approves the
recommendations, he shall instruct
either the ordinary or board of
roads and revenues to make the
proposed changes. A large number
of county jails in this state are a
disgrace to humanity. The prison
ers are badly fed, and no effort is
made for their health or comfort.
Many of them are clad in rags, and
their filthy cells are infested with
vermin. Many of the legislators
have had their tender hearts deeply
touched on account of the inhuman
treatment to convicts in the peni
tentiary camps, but their charity in
this instance has gone abroad;
when a worse state of affairs existed
at their own homes. Many an in
nocent man who has been placed
in jail awaiting trial, has suffered
more than the most abandoned
criminal. We hope the bill for the
appointment of a jail inspector will
pass.
T11E JIcDOW TRIAL.
The verdict of the McDow mur
der case does not meet the approval
of the unprejudiced world, and the
results of this trial go to show very
plainly and clearly that the materi
al which compose our special juries
is oftentimes made up of very infe
rior and unreliable stuff. A man’s
life is by long odds the most valua
ble commodity, and it overtops any
article in the marts of trade and
when it is destroyed, level heads
and honest hearts should alone be
allowed to pass judgment and de
cide some adequate punishment.
Here was one of first and most wor
thy citizens of the country foully
murdered, and his murderer was
tried by a jury of ignorant men,
who allowed their unholy passions
and prejudices to hold the pen
which wrote the verdict. The sev
en negroes who sat on this jury had
not the capacity or moral standing
in Charleston to entitle them to
any position of trust or responsibili
ty, and yet they were selected to
sit in judgment on a case which
very seriously affected the interests
of the whole country. Capt. Daw
son never skulked in his tent, or
feared to risk the responsibility of
saying or doing what duty dictated.
He had worked hard and success
fully for the welfare of Charleston,
and the establishment of good gov
ernment in the state of S. C.—
He entered into no compromise
with crime, and favored no half-way
measures in combatting the de
praved prejudices of ignorant and
venal negro politicians. These peo
ple were necessarily opposed to
such a man and their general m.ake
up should have entirely disqualified
them from sitting on the McDow
jury. In rendering their verdict,
their prejudices took the place of
the law and the facts, and the real
guilt or innocence of McDow were
of but a small moment in the make
up of their verdict. Had Capt. Daw
son while in life been brought be
fore them for trial, they would have
as one man decided on the severest
penalty of the law in spite of the
charge of the judge, or the sworn
testimony of honest witnesses. And
when McDow’s lawyers with the
aid and counsel of Republican court
officials succeeded in smuggling
these seven negroes into the jury
room, the murderer of Capt. Daw
son felt no apprehension of any
coming danger, and it was, there
fore no wonder that he adorned
himself “so regardlessly” and laugh
ed so pleasantly while his character
as a man and a husband was being
so terribly torn to pieces. We are
glad that the Northern mind ap
preciates the situation at least so
far as the verdict in this trial
was concerned. The negro has been
enough of a disturbing element
since he has been allowed to figure
in politics. The only safety and salva
tion of the country have been in
the last resort to judicial remedy.
If "old cuff” is allowed to become
an important factor in both the po
litical arena and the jury room, the
country will soon be brought to re
alize “that other refuge have we
none.” With bad men in office, and
corrupt jurors to deal out justice,
such men as McDow will live on
the fat of the land, and they who
would tread in the footsteps of
Capt. Dawson will be forced to seek
other localities.

Rvery season since we commenced business under our pres
ent firm name in 1S78, we have claimed that our Stock was
improvement on preeeediug Seasons, but never has the improve
ment been so decided or marked as now. Our stock of Dry
Goods and Novelties for the Spring and Summer of 1SS9 is be
yond the reach of Competition in the South, and we dely New
York and e\ r ery other market in the United States both on prices
and elegance of goods.
Without goiug into detail, w*e may say that our Stock con
tains not only everything novel and fashionable to bew found st
home and abroad, but we keep the best line of useful, seasonable
goods at moderate prices, in Georgia and Carolina.
Examination and Comparison will prove beyond dispute—
as they have in the past—the truth of what we say, and we
earnestly ask intending buyers to apply these never failing tests*
Samples sent on application, and orders filled with care
and promptness.
No false promises, no humbug, but fail* dealing and satisfac
tion ahvays guaranteed.
