piLl FOR SMITH AT BROXTON. -
B At Douglas court, in conversation with
4 oung attorney of Broxton, Tuesday, the
bernatorial race naturally came up and the
ung man stated to the Editor of the Enter
fise that his booming little town was practically
unit for Hoke Smith. *I do not believe Howell
jould get more than one vote if the primary oc
cured tomorrow. Later in the day we met Mr.
*¥. W. Bivins who has been at Broxton coasider
able of the time lately and he said he did not
' think there were more than two Howell men in
the community. Of course, it is probable that
é&neither of the gentlemen gquoted have talked
F with all the citizens of the town on the subject
E‘ and that there are other Howell men at Broxton,
. but what was said iadicates that there is no
great demand for him in that quarter.

else’s democracy. In those days The Atlanta

“But in the name of common sense what
right has the Constitution to say anything?
Who appointed it the protector of the party and
democratic officials? How has the Constitution
been consistently defending democraticofficials?
For what purpose is it now defending party offic
jals and party machinery? Does it suppose
that no one has any memory? Does it think for
a moment that its own record is coveired up?”’
“It is the only thing that we have against
that otherwise great paper, and its editor, tbat
they are more largely responsible than any
other half dozen forces in the whole country for
the present divided ard hopelessly wrecked con
dition of the national democracy. At the time
when there seemed some hope of building up a
pational party to cope with the republicans in
statesmanship, wisdom and voting strength,
The Constitutionled an attack on the party,
made by populists and Socialists, soured dis
gruntled democrats, like itself, that surpasses
anything known in American politics. When
the only democrat who has been elected to the
presidency since the war, was striving by
honesty and moral and political courage to
build up a party that placed right above wrong,
partiotism against political pulls, and the good
of the nation above the good cf the party itself,
"he was assailed as if he had been a highwayman
and charged with every political crime known
to man. The democrat who is generally con
ceded to have been one of the ablest presidents
the country has ever bad, and who stands today
as the purest and most highly esteemed private
citizens in the whole country was for a number
of years the victim of every misrepresentation
and accusation that could possibly turn from
him the love and confidence of the people and
serve to prejudice against him the ignorant and
vicious of the country.”’
“Not only Mr. Cleveland was harrassed,
but every statesman of the party that dared to
stand with bim was made the victim of the most
bitter attacks. Who has forgotten the time
when Hon. H. G. Turner, the ablest repres
entative Georgia has had in Congress in recent
years, was cartooned by the Constitution and
represented as a republican walking in the
shoes of Speaker Reed?”’
“We would advise the Constitution, in the
face of its history, to leayve the defense of the
party to those with a more consistent and cred
itable record. When it comes to traducing the
party, it holds a record that will never be taken
from it. And the people remember,”—Moultrie

Pierian Entertain,
The program given by the
Pierian Society of the High
School was highly entertaining
by good looking girls and strong
minded boys. Quite a number
of visitors were present, and
think that it was far more en
tertaining and a great improve
ment over any previous enter
tainment. It proved some labor
on the part of the members and
more on the part of the one who
did the efficient training. Cer
tainly, these entertainments are
very beneficial to the members
not only by the practice they
get, but the training by the teach
ers efficient in that line. The
public are weicome to these en
tertainments, and the presence
of the patrons of the school is a
great encouragement to the
teachers and pupils, and the
various amusements will be
worthy of the time.
