BLOODSHED AT CHICAGO. Tho first collision between the troops and tiro rioters In Obtoago wits unfur- tnnnito 1n more rrapeuu than one. The Teleflrat>h hod n faSmo liopo Hint utirii a culUslou could have been avoided, tliourfi when the orehlllkm of affairs to the lilk Western city ivus taken Into consld-mtion Qiervi was little ground for luoh hope. Tho rioters seem to be roused to n pitch of lowIetMiioss and to n feeling of hatred uguiimt tho soldiers which makes it altogether pp'liable ihot this la hut the first of a series of bloody battle*.

Bacon's friemla In Meriwether notified him that It would be bi-tter for the county to go for Garrard as first Choice without couteat. 'MaJ. Bacon Is not aware that there wns any context over the senacnrship In Meriwether. That county may b*’ regarded an one of tlie borne’ cotmiles of Coiumbtu. INVITATION TO MAJ. BACON. MsJ. Bacon has received an Invita tion to speak on the political Isxiint of the day at LaGrungc on the 21st lnat. He will accept Ihe In vital.,an and speak there on the date named. He has a similar Invitation from the good Democrats of Clayton county, and will speak In that county on the Tld of this month. The position In regard to the pres ence of United BUtes troops in Chi- on go assumed by Governor Altgeld, Involves a most important qmtttlon of cooaUtutloo.il law', the detUement of which, nfier opler 5s restored la Chi cago, will be watched with keen Inter est all over rhe country. It is In some respeots one of tho moot Important frtUnres in this unleappy business, so far as Its ultimate results are con cerned. Populists are great at claiming. Two yoars ago they laid a whaling big ma jority, *0 they said, In July, but in Oc tober they couldn't tell "where they wore nit.” So It la thla year. Tliey have things in a swing hi Georgia now, If you let them tell It, but when It oomni to voting Umo (hey will find there is a vast difference between talk and votes, nnd It takes votxs to win an election. President Delis' nddress to tho strik ers sjdvWng ngniuHt vloleneo and law lessness Is in the right spirit, lmt Is llki-IJ to have tittle effect Tho trouble Is'rjint n vast majority of those en gaged In these lawless demonstrations nre not strikers, but the roughs nnd crowds who congregate in such unm- l«i» In a city the size of Chicago. Twiggs county declares! for llacon. The major’s list grows nlmost as fast as illd that of Mr. Atkinson early In the gubernatorial campaign, and Iris opponents are not careful the ulti mate result will lw the rajne. The fur will fly In the fifth congres sional illstriot this week. OoL Living ston Is 11 laird man to bout In n iiolit- tnal campaign, but OoL Oandler will give him a powerful wrestle for tho UlnltT held. One of ®tc leading wholesale grocers of Macon said yesterday If tho rallroud strike iras not settled within a week his firm would not have a man on tho road uoxt week. They would have nothing to sell. By n dispensation of providence Georg|n fnrit growers lost their crop this year, nml n,nv by n'lllspbiwitlon uf Debs* the Georgia melon growers nro "In tho soup." This 1s sure hard luck. The mco tnr coroner is developing ennillditte* world without end. Tliere are snhl to be In the neighborhood of thirty nsplronts for the plftce, nil of whom fool sure of election. If Judge Hines' .Uncon spect-h tvas a fair Kimplc'af whnt ho ran do ho has no huslntxts with the curly-headed wugun bay of Ootvota on the stump or elsewhere. SENATORIAL DRIFT.

GEORGIA FARMS AND FARMERS. Reports from different section* show that the rain has fallen pretty sen-ral ly throughout the cotton districts dur ing rhe past week. Th* growing crop has been greatly benefiltted, but there U considerable complaint that the yield will not be up to the nvorejge oil ac count of the recent freeze nnd ^contin ued drought*.

Several are of the opinion that the July crop will be nbout all tlmt will be made this year. —Oglethorpe Echo. MAJ. BACON AN D SILVER. From the Lawrencevllle News. Tho News said Inst week that It would gladly support MaJ. Bscon for the senate, provided his views on public questions were In harmony with its own. We now go further nnd say that we are for him, heart and aoul. If he has been correctly reported. In his Canton speech last Turnd-vy the ,*nnstItutlnn quote, him .is follows: "I desire to say for myself that I would not favor nny silver dollar which Is not on a parity with the gold dollar In pur- chasing power.” The above statement does credit tn MaJ. Bacon's Democracy. It shows that he stnnd* on the Chicago platform, and that he hsa ne sympathy -with the Populist movement In favor of the free nnd un limited coinage of silver without regard to parity. MaJ. Bacon, Ilk* every other Democrat, favors silver coinage on parity with gold, but he realises the folly of the third party's position on the question, and he emphasises the fact that he will favor none but honest money. The News will, therefore, give 5IaJ. Bacon Ita hearty support. He Is today the ablest man aspiring to the place for Which he asks, and Georgia')* Interests will rent safely In his h-anda. He has been Indored by a large number of coun- tie, ‘and the way seems clear for hla success. . HON. A O. BACON FOR SENATOR.

The Telegraph warns the party that the Populists will make the light for the •'There to no why or wherefore in love or In liking;" They come, like our dreams, without wishing or will. And others, the fact which seems the least striking. Our soul with life’s fullness and beauty may thrill. Who can tell the meaning of dreams that enthrall us. That breathe of sweet hope, or with bodlngs of woe? Who can measure the visions that charm or appal us. Or tell how they come, or whither they go? So 'tls with the love—with the passion which reaches Its aims to entwine them, mysterious nnd strange, •Round cur hearts In a sweet, ever sweeter beseeching, , And we hear but the music of love’s deathless aong. » The face which another would pass by unheeding, • Holds for us all of life In Us smiles and Its tears. And the car which to deaf to another's warm pleading Will quicken to us in a lovo without fears. Oh! faces angelic, so perfect In feat ure, Ye may smile on the crowds as ye pass In the street— •But H may be that Love seeks the'less- favored creature To Invest with his passion so wild and There is something—a voice In lta ca dences tendet. May thrill througu the heart never a Hen t again— There to something-*, glance which art cannot render. Which draws, us, nnd holds us, like music’s refrain. Oh! spirit'eternal. In palace or garret. It holds all alike In it* mystical thrall; But sad Is the thought—yea, ’tls anguish * to bear It— That lovo means not joy to the end, for us all; For Pain Is thy sister, thou spTtit of blessing. And Sorrow stands near, the wild pulses to chill: . , But the soul which to anchored In thy dear possessing Finis a courage to bear and a faith to fulfill. •T*s God’s dearest gift to hto children so weighted By burdens and griefs, which the world cannot share. And we cherish the gift so immortally freighted— Our soother In pain, and orr comfort in care. Vtneville, July 7, 18M. Reed Charles Wachtd’s ad., page 6. * FAIR AND RELIABLE.
