IN l’OU TIII-2 FIGHT. Screven county has got on Its fight ing clothes. Here's what the Sylvsnta Telephone has to *ay about It: Tho Democrats of Hcraven are pre paring for tltc combat this fall. The executive cjmmKlco ha* bean appointed and Col. Oliver Is clktlrmun. The cam- ixilgn commliJteo will ba announced next Usue. The Democracy la bourn) to suc ceed again In this county, as usual, but thorough brganlxatlon anil active unrl vigorous work will bo necessary, to v the Populists that however hard they Mur work and w-rth all the cross road orating they do they can't suc ceed here. Thera 1« no room for them. The Waycrow Herald thinks that Judin.' lllncs has failed to enthuse the third party of Georgia and tliut the movement Is rapidly weakening. The Wallen Nows 1s a grout believer In iho ability uf Hon. W. Y. Atkinson i "do up" Judge llines. It suggests: After the gubernatorial convention we look tor lion. William Y, Axklnson to turtle candidate Ulneo to engage In Joint debate. If the clkillcngo should bo made and accented we would sec soino old-time political excitement. Atkinson has no ooual In Georgia as a stump speaker. Thera Is agra.it deal Of truth In what the Talbot Ion New Bra says: "Voting fur men and not party mean* political disintegration nnd anarchy. Organlat- Hon is nwded everywhere. Nothing ran be accomplished without it, hence It la of paramount Importance.'* The Quitman Free Tres* hits It lurt right In this paragraph: "The eo-cniled Democrat who vote* for Hines in pref erence to Atkinson t* Just the kind ot a Democrat Tom Wogson wants him to bo. The ballot 'that goes in the box for lttnes lx a third purty vole, and no whys and Wherefores can figure It uut In any other way." This is how the Democrats or Macon Bounty feel according to the Moote- xuma Becordt "The Democrats are going -to carry the stale of Georgia by an overwhelming majority. Now watch Whit nve tell you. Democrats are fall ing Into Tine everywhere. Geneuloe en- thualasm t* being kindled all along the Hat. The people are aroused and are going to keep their elate government In thb hands ot Democrats." —the party of the pecpJe and by tbo people—and they are coming to ft be cause '.hey belie re »t will give them the soundest and roost economical government. The Populous -will not cdtdh r/itny of them wiiti hooks baited with empty honors.” This is straight Democratic talk from the Guyton Chronicle: "This is the ttmi to show your Democratic backbone. Keep to the front and make things hot for the boys across Che tim*.’' The Calhoun County Courier knows how It i* going to be. Witness the fol lowing: “In lees (than two weeks now tite Democratle love feast will be over, then Billy Atkinson will be camping on Jimmy Hlnee' trail and then Che third party man wDI be a gone coon.” BACON FOR NENATOB.

To the Editor of the Telegraph: I de sire to present to that class of voters In 'this state of which I am a part Che reasons why wc should nhf support tho third party In tho unproachtni? elec- t$OQ. 1 am a pbor man—as poor as the poor est In this state—but 1 am ns honest ns ttio most honest ones. I have a largo family to support and to educate, and 1 have to do It by farming on halves. So ovory one who has any knowledge of the poor cropper's condition can under stand well my humble position and Just, hbrv I tttn situated In my community. So boys, hear ine idle politicians call you boys, nnd you must excuse mo fur assuming to do the same thing) while 1 give you a few thoughts that iiavo come tb me as I have day after day followed my plot*. I have learned, like every one else has. that the poor man of thle country 1e very needy, and it Is a irop- or Inquiry to make, what has brought aftiout thvse conditions? Are they tr.ice.iblo to any political pi i'll' and to their administration of tho slate or na tional government? If so, from the ndmlnletra,tlon of what govornqient have they come to us. nnd what fftlttlcal par^y Is respir.slbte for This is how the Rome Hustler put* tt: "The Democrats are trying to sup port the government—they third furty- RW are trying to get where they can make the government support them." ' "We an glad to - nche." says the Buent VMM Patriot, "that so many negroes la this county ore allying themselves jrlUl U« DcmogtaU; ptxty them? Now boys. If our hard times ore traceable to tho administration of any government, by any political party. It certainly has not grown out of any loglslatlbn and administration id our stato government. But It !* claimed and Is conceded that nil of the Ills that havo come to us anil from which wo suffer Have grown out of the legislation anil (he edndnlvtrad'on of the national government. This being true. It la a proper Inquiry to make, what political party has legislated for and adminis tered there governments? It Is well known to ui all that the state govern ment has been legislated for and ad ministered by (he Democratic party for the 48t twenty yearns or more, ngainct which no readonaMy honest poor man can make complaint and to which none of our woes are traceable. TYien. if they have come tb us from the national gov ernment. It la well known that the leg- Islatton for and the edadntr'.rallon of this government has for the last thirty years boon under the control of the Re publican parly, and tt Is to them that the laboring men are Indebted for all the dls they suffer. But ihe third party traders tell us than the national government has been foe the last two years under the control of Ohe Democratic party and that they have done nothing for our relief, and they are theretbra responsible for our depressed nnd Imoovertahed condltt n. an l that If we will vote for their caniti- d He for governor, etc. for this state •mi elect them thev will retieve u- Are the*e chorees true, ir.d ran they do what they propose? An answer to IMS. boy*, eho-ild con trol n*. It Is true-that all toe depart ment* of nationtl government have been In charge of the Democratic party for the last two veara. sad It I* also true that the flood of Ills from which the poor enu*es suffer ba* come to us from Republican legislation and Republican administration, and nbt from anyth'.ntt the Democratic party hat done or failed to do. These trust* and combines that have grown so strong under the 1**1*- latton of the Republican party ari hanl tb plear array. But I aware \-oa tnat oof ■ 'nv*vr*llc congee** has gone t, wor. Funder greater difflcuUle* to clean vut ihvsc icuJln and cyjjitdj-.s a&J (Q prepare the wav to plant the seed of Democratic relief. Everything can not bo dpnc in a djy.' It requires time 10 rear down our* poll-.-y, to cleaai sway Mil* ruhblrh and build up another. It Is Just *s easy, boy*, for us to go Inm the Wood*, cut down Che free*, grubb up the stump and clear out the ror* and put the land into firm-clans condition tor cultivation In one and two years as it I* to expect.the Democrai.io pariy to clear out the Repub.icin grounds and combines that have grown iw strong and formidable aud give this oountrv a complete system of reform in one or two ye»m. They carmot clear up the ground In that tin*. But there Is one '.ling true, boys, the Democratic party is In tho Republican, wtfods, cut ting down their giant frauds nnd com bines. clearing awuy their rubbish and printing the seed of Democratic relnf In the form of law* that will, as sure a* we live, bring to us in time a full harvest of relief. . Do not become Impatient and heed the third party wail*. If the men whom we hive entrusted with the work of re form -will not do tt a* we want It done, let u» droj> «tihem and quit the party. The party Is In a condition to do some thin* If we will stand by it. Can the third party, tlrat promise* so much, do any thins for ns? We cannot trust Mielr leaders. They consist principally of lawyers, broken down politicians nnd men who have failed In everythin;? (wl'h n few exceptions) that they ever undertook to do. If we could not trust them to fill office when they were (the most of them) In our party -nnd cannot trust them in our business, how are we to »trust them in charge 'of She business of o government? No. boya* we cannot trust them. They are the same fellows. Their whole desire Is to get office and make money by professing to be the poor man’s friend. They claim to know all slbout our condition and Just whai we want. Now, If they are suoh friends of the poor man why don’t they put forward ftnje of our poor class who are In touch T*kh one another htftead of putting up politicians and lawyers who have deserted other political parties for us to vote for. No. boys, if it were not for the ©polls and the offices thesa third party leaders would not he in the third party or anywhere else. If we were to vote for Hines and all their men for «the legislature and put them In charge of the atMe government how could they better our condition? In no way. No figh't is made on the Democratic state government. It is against- the national government Hurt all complaints rnre lodged and from which all relief must come. There (s no obance for them to H*et IIine3 gov ernor nor a legislature. Then, whjjre la the sense in -throwing our vi>tea away on some of their candidates for repre sentatives and senator. None whatever. It tends to cripple the Democratic party, tho only party that l« In si position to help the poor man ngalnrit the trus*s and combines ot the Republican party. Ev ery vote caHt for the (third party Is aid ing the Republican party. So examine youraelveo, boya, n-nd see If you do nbt arrive n't 4he same conclusion. If you do, then let us, in our humble homes, resolve to not let this Populist party deceive us. By standing to the Democratic policy there is hope for re lief; by going to the third pirty there is none. L. T. Mercer. Irwlntion, July 2d, 1894. TALE OF A POSSUM. The following “pon'e” comes from an ex- 'I'tnge.

Some used to say in stultum jocum Quod a field was too email locum For sic a dog to mako a turnus. Circum self from ©tom to Bternu9. Unis canla duo puer, Nunquam braver, nunquam truer, Quam hoc trio unquam fult, If there was 1 never knew It. Hla bonus dog had one bad habit; Am&bat much to treo a rabbit, Amub.it plus to tree a 1 alius, Amaliat bene to chase a cattus, On thle nlxy moonlight night Till.. 1.1.1 rams did Just rlsht, Nunquam treed a hungry rattus, Nunquam chased a starving cattua. But cucurit or Internals, On the track and on the scentus, TUI he treed a possum strongum In a hollow trunkum longum. Loud he barked in horrid befium, Seemed on terra venit helium. Quickly ran the duo puer, Mora of possum to secure, Quam vencrit, one began TO chop away like qulaque man. Soon the axe went through the trun- kuin, Fast he hit It, per, cher, chunkum, Combat thickens; on ye bravus! Canls, puer, bite, et stavu»; As his powers non longlus tarry. Possum potest non pugnare, On the nix his corpus lleth, Down to Hades spirit flleth. Joyful puers, canls bonus Think him dead ns any stonus. Alnt nis corpus luce a jelly? Quid plus proof ought hunter velle? Now they seek their pater's dome. Feeling proud as any homo, Knowing certe they will blossom Into heroes, when with possum Thej' at rive, narrabunt ©tory, Plenus blood, et pCenlor glory. Pompoy, David, Sampson, Caesar, Cyrus, Blackhanrk, Shalmaneser! Tell me where eat now the gloria, Where the honors or Victoria. Quum at do mum narrent story, Plenus, sanguine, tragic, gory. Pater praineth, likewise mater; Wonders greater younger frater. Possum leave they on the mundus— Go themselves to sleep prorundus. Somniunt possum slain in battle, Strong as ursc, large as cattle. When nox gives way to lux of raorn- lr.g, Album terrum much adorning, I’p they Jump to see the varmen. Of the which quid est the carmen, Pissum hie est resurrectuni. Leaving puers most de;ectum.

A RARE TREAT. Hon. Robert L. Berner, the silver- tongued .orator of Monroe, will bo here on Tuesday, August 7, and will make us a ringing Democratic address. Bqb Berner, as he is familiarly called, is one of the most eloquent men In the South. Oratory is a natural gift with him, and he will present the claims of tlie Democratic party to the people of this county in a vigorous style. You will miss a treat if you don't hear him. We. hope ever Populist *n the county can be present on that day anl huur tne silver-tongued statesman from i’ 0 r- syth. Every voter is Invited, to be present on Tuesday, August 7, .because it Is a rare treat to hour such a .speech as Mr. Berner will ’make.—Jackson Herald. FOR THB LEGISLATURE.

Ho Will Whip Out the Populists In the Seventh AH Rlgnt From tfl6 Rome Tribune. Hon. Tr.tfnmeM Starr of Dalton, char- man of the Democratic executive commit tee of the Seventh congressional district, was In the city yesterday. He was seen a Tribune reporter, and gave some interesting talk concerning the situation In.this district. In reply to a question an to whether he throught the third party had any outlook for success, he replied: I am sure tho district Is as safely Derm.cratic as it was two years ago. Judge Maddox will carry every county In the Seventh, Mxcept, po3- Bibly, Paulding. It matters not who fne Populists put out against him, the Dem ocrats are going to land the Judge safely in office again. Scab Wright is un doubtedly the strongest man they could run against him, but ttiere'is no great probability of his being in the race. Even if ho were to enter, I honestly believe Maddox would defeat him, but we would have a right lively time of It in the cam paign. “But It behooves every Democrat to be up and doing. Every county should have thorough and f*ystematlc onganizatlon. The minute we elt down and become over confident, the Populists will steal & march on us. They are working like beavers and ha\*e organized splendidly. But If we only keep our weather eye open, and keep stirring, I see no danger of Democ racy being defeated." Col. Starr Is a candidate fur the senate from the Forty-third senatorial district, and will receive the nomination easily! So far the Populists have not put out a man against him, but should they do so Col. Starr will be eleced. Politics up in this neck of the woods is beginning to keep pace with the present state of the weather.
