thk iiK.ifocit.vno platform.
For three or four days our cstoemed
contemporary, the Atlanta Constitu
tion, Inis tlevoted imidi of Its editorial
spane to udvloe In regard to thu plat
form to he adopted by Thursday’s cou-
ventlim of 'Democrats. The gimeml ef
fect of this advice Is that thin Is , no
time for dodging or equivocation In
regard to the political Issues In which
the people are Interested. This Is tile
general cfTcet of hs advice, liut consid
eration of nil that our contemporary
has sulil, lends us lo believe that It Is
Interested only lu one particular part
of the platform. "Tim people are per
fectly willing to tolerate perfunctory
tndorscm.ial of Indlridiuila," It says,
which means of oounie Unit it is tiot
opIMSed to couipIlintsilH paid I'rcsldeht
Cleveland liy (he emiventlvn so long us
they are personal to him und do not
deal with the acts of Ills .ulmlldstratlou,
for the reason that it will regard such
compliments ns meaningless. What it
desire* Is that the Democratic conven
tion of (leorgltf slinll declare explicitly
lu favor of tlio tree cutnugo of silver
at the ratio of 10 to 1, thus ndoptlug
ttie Populist platfoiyu on tlio silver
question. Its advice, repeated day
after day, nud Insisted upon In the
slrougisit language It can employ,
Hint tho Deinoeratlc convention do this
thing. '
Is this good advice? lu wluit posi
tion will It leavq tho Democrats of
Georgia Of the prospect Is realized that
during the next campaign tho silver
questloa will lie tho dividing Issue hi
national polities? Our contemporary
insists that tlfin step Is necessary, If
Democrats aro not to repudiate the
principles which they lmvo always ns-
sorted u-ud uiion which they lmvo ill
ways acted. In other wordh, that the
free cohxige of silver Is thu traditional
Dcmocratfo policy ami that tho failure
of Ceorgin Demm-rals to assert it will
prove that they either lack courage, or
are false to the principles and (mill-
tKsis of llielr pony.
No slate ctmvoaHon can .'eglslnlo on
n national question of this kind ;ti such
a way ns to lilinl the opinioas and ac
tions of Democrats. Tho authority
which can do that Is u national eonven-
thm, representing the national parly.
If the freo cohmgo of silver Is Demo
cratic doctrine, therefore, it can bo so
ouly through the denotation of a nn-
tloiial Demoerntlo convention. When
was sin-h a declnrullun made? Per
tain ly it Kiunol he found In tho pint-
form of 18P". Those who claim that
It can tie found there Ignore entirely
the eoudlUens precedent to and accom
panying free coinage which are re
quired la that platform, which every
Democrat Is la honesty bound to oou-
struo as a whole. It Is true that our
contemporary, among others, has
sought to glvo to the platform this In-
terptvlut'xw, but It was moved to do
so, in our opinion, not so much by the
desire to flud the trao meaning as by
tho fact that '.t was Itself thoroughly
committed to tho frpo silver propa
ganda before tlmt platform was
adopted. Tho adoption of that plat
farm was a defeat foe U\o freo silver
extremists of tho Democratlo imrty,
among whom was our Contemporary*
but It lias steadily refused to acknowl
edge defeat, mid Is now trying to turn
defeat Into a personal victory, by per-
susdiug the Democrats of Georgia to
•put upon the platform the Interpreta
tion upon which it has Insisted. To
ndopt the Populist' silver plauk would
lie either to put that Interpretnllou
lipou the Demoerntlo plat term or to
defy the uataouul Demoerntlo party on
this question when It Is about to be
come the great Issue lu national poll
tea.
Wo have never seen any room ter
doubt ns to tho invading of tho silver
plauk of tho Chicago platform. It
seems to u* a perfectly explicit declar
ation tn favor of a blmetallto cunvory.
Hut while this is true, wo have not de
nied to any ooo, to any Individual
Democrat, hts right to interpret tho
plattertn for bUusdf. He tins that
r gbt, nud no action of our state conven
tion can deprive him of lb A resotu-
tloo hi favov of the freo coinage of sil
ver nt the 10 to 1 ratio; without the
Ktfcgunnla Uiat would Insure bimetal
lism. would commit no Georgia Demo-
crat to the acceptance of that doctrine.
The »mly effect of K would he to wove
that the Democratic pony of Georgia,
ns officially represented. Is, oa the
pr.ueliMl Issue of the day, more nearly
l« sympathy with the national Poput&t
party than with the uatloual Derao-
•■ralte party. u „„ a
iwraoual triumph to our Atlanta coo-
temporary that might relievo It to
some extent of the embarrassment
brought upon it during several mouths
past by a persistent antagonism to tlio
Democratic administration mid the pol
icies of he national Deinofcratlc party.
We. have no objection to tho Demo
crats of Georgia relieving our contem
porary of its ymtiari-.iKsmont, but wo
object to tills Ijciug done at tin ox-
ponso of tbs Democratic party.
We object to tlio Democratlo' party
of Georgia being placed In antagonism
to the national Deinoeratlc party. It
bus not been so placed heretofore by
tho passage of resolutions favoring
freo coinage, for the reason that the
•liver quistioa has not bean the con
trolling Issue of a political campaign.
It has been but nn incident. The parly
bus been devoting all of Its energies
to an effort to reform the tariff, and
Democrats generally could afford to
iguere resolutions not binding on them
and that dealt with a matter of sec
ondary Importance. But when .this
qucstlun comes to the frunt, now that
the tariff question Is about to bo set
tled for some years to come, the situa
tion Is changed. The disorganizing ef
fect Ui>ou the parly nf such u resolu
tion would lie tho same nf If la 18'JO
tlio Democrats of (Jt'orft il bad declared
in favor of u prohibitory high tariff.
Wo say this because we ure convinced
tlmt the national Democratic purty will
never consign to the free coinage of
silver except on terms Hint wfll Insure
the continued use of gold as money—
tlmt will insure the bimetallism in
which thu Democratlo party has from
tho beginning llrnily believed. There
fore it the Democrats of Georgiu die
cluro In favor of freo coinage in the
manner proposed, they will and them
selves, when tho next national cam
paign lieglas, obliged either to support.
a party with whose main purpose
they have officially declared tlmt they
do not sympathize, or else to repudiate
tho aotluu of this cuuveuKun in pass
ing a Populist silver resolution.
To say that bimetallism Is a tradi
tional pulley of the Democratic parly
Is true, but to suy Unit the free coinage
of gold aud silver nt a ratio which dues
out represent tho relative commercial
value of the two mentis Is false,
the time when tho constitution wus
adopted both gold und silver were uul-
vorsaUy employed as money. They
weru tlio money of tho world. Nothing
else was. They were tho wolld'a
money, not by the legislative enact
ment of any country, hut by the uni
versal acceptance of all men. Govern-
moats, hi making them legal teuder
for debts and regulating Uleir use
money, merely accepted a situation
which they hod done uothlug to create.
The constitution, therefore, in declar
ing tlmt -no state should mako any thing
hut gold aud slim- legal tender, mvaut
only that no statu should make any
thing legal money which the world bad
not ulrcudy uiude money. Tho Demo
cratic doctrine In favor of bimetallism
Is the ductr.uo of tho uuustitutlou—
nothing mure. The men who niude tho
aoustitutiou, tf they were lit work umv,
would accept tlio situation us It Is and
not shnpo their action to suit tho dr-
cumstuuecs of a hundred years ago,
aud Unit Is what thu Democrats party
will tlu.
upon this vital Issue, end looking solely
to the future and to the momentous con
sequences which wait upon the action of
congress In thin regard, we Inxofce at the
hands of teose upurt whutO la laid the rc ;
sponatbllity of Hs decision, hit speedy
determination of the futare coinage of
both gold and sliver, und the fiture
equality of both gold and silver coin ns
the money of final payment, to the-end
that the future proeperlty and develop
ment of the country may be assured.
•Third. That me hold It to be the con
stitutional right of the nevsril states to
enact ttillr own banking lawn by which
banking corpora,tic:.* within their bor
ders shall bo empowered to Issue tank
I.flls for clrcukitjon among their people
for the necessary transaction of business;
and that there to no constitutional right
In the general government to lay upon
the states a prohibition against the exer
cise of that right, whether direct or indi
rect, regulate or control the exercise of
such right
•Fourth. That we hold that taxation,
whether direct or Indirect, Is only Justi
fied as a means for raining revenue for
the government, snd that therefore, cus.
toms duties should be laid for the purport
revenue only, and we endorse the pres
ent administration and the present con
gress In their efforts to so resdjust the
tariff laws that they shall be upon a
strict revenue bajla only.
Fifth. That iwe favor tho Imposition
by the general govsmment of an Income
tax. which shall be so graduated that
the chief burden shall be laid upon large
Incomes, to the end that the wealth of
th* country ahull bear Us due share of
the burden of supporting ths federal gov
ernment.”
The fifth of these resolutions the Tel
cgrnpli docs not llfco anil has nrgued
against. But the question is not a prac
tical one, and probably will never lic-
como ho. What, beside* this, Is there
In the platform that Is not Democratic?
THE STATE CAMPAIGN.
Populism Is not gaining any m.it trial
headway In Oeorgla, Is the 'opinion of
tho Perry Home Journal.
We commend this from tho Bnrnes-
vlllo Journal to oil good party men;
lit there lo any Democrat In Georgia
disposed to be Indifferent he must wake
up and remember that the Democratic
party must be preserved.
The Georgia Cracker pays this well
deserved compliment;
For a man who knows what to say,
and how t'o soy It, and one that never
gushes over playing tho toady act, we
commend you to Editor Blackburn of
the Atlanta Commercial.

UNJUST TO MAJ. BACON.
Tho Eatoutun -Messenger, on tho eve
of the primary about to bo held vu Put-
Ham county, makes an attack upon tho
political record of MaJ. Racou which
tho fuel’s of the case do not Justify
The main points of this attack are, filet
that MaJ. Bacon was a few years ago a
pronounced protcct.-oulst; second, that
uu u certain occasion, ta a published
letter, ho auaouucod that thereafter ho
would act with whatever party ho
pleased; third, that he has nlwhys been
Identified with corporations; fourth,
that his platform of principles ns made
publla by him hi a set of resoJutious
beforo thu last legislature shows "very
little In eoimnon with Democracy, hut
much that hurmouizos with third par
ty Ism.”
In reply to tho tlrgt of these charges.
It is sufficient to say that MaJ. Uucon
defiles emphatically ever having been
protectionist, and challenges any
tnnu to produce a lino wrlttea by him
In favor of protection, or to bring a
witness who will testify to his having
spoken ini favor of that system .
As to tho second charge, MaJ. Bacon
denies that In iluy letter ho has said
that ho would voto for auy party ho
pleased.
As to tho thlnl and fourth charges,
they are Inconsistent with each other.
Whatever may be tho faults of tlio
thlnl party. If Is not tlio party of cor
poration*. To allege that MaJ. Bacon
Is miller tho Influence of corporations
nud at the same two shows a leaning
towunl tho party whose chief stock la
trade la the denunciation of corpora
tions may bo a very guod wny to excite
prejudice, hut It is not likely to hn
press people who take the trouble to
tlituk.
IVrltapa tho host way to Ulustmto
the Injustice of tho Messenger’s attack
Is to print in full the series of resolu
tions Intsoduccd by JJaj. Bacon In the
legislature, which that paper calls lii
platform of pr.nclplrs. sod denounces as
baring “little in common with Deans:
racy but much that harmonize* with
thlnl party ism.” Those resolutions are
as follows:
“First. That we hoM It to b* to the to.
tereat of the people of the United Sue
that the govern went of the United States
nhoukl cots both sold and sliver ex th
money of final payment without discrim
ination against either motel, tho dollar
unit of cotnaga of which shall be of equal
Intrinsic «nd exchangeable value,
“Second. That indulging In ho spirit
trU&etn, but on ths contrary recocnbxne
fully th* Integrity of purpose nnd ths pa
triotic desites which hav* animated and
(raided thost who hav* honrarly differed
Col. Rucker of tho La-wreiicevlllo
Nows proposes this facer to our Popu
list friends:
The Populists profoM hostility to cor
porations. How do they reconcile this
fact with the other ono that their -ai-
didst* for governor, Judge Hines, :s the
president of n railroad company and the
regular attorney for four other corpo
rations? How can corporation! be -rip
pled or hampered by placing-ifihelr bf-
fleers nnd nttorney* In control of the
government? Our friends, thy enemy,
ind belt take down rome of their can
didate* or shut up pbuut corporations.’’
BOUND DEMOCRACY. ,
The Worth County Local enunciates
a Dozen truth <us follow*: “The county
that holds a political meeting non and
doesn’t Indorse Cleveland und hU nd-
mlnlstrntlmi has nn awful lonetmne
time of It.”
Pall Boyd ot -Mie Rome Hustler can
condense il great truth In a few words.
He says: ’The -more the protective
tariff Democrats in the senate orate on
the tariff hill the more their words
they will have to swallow later on. The
people are In earnest. They want tariff
reform nnd they tlM have it. Then*

Dr. Stapler Write* a Letter On the Sub
ject 1'Yorn New York.
To the Editof of tho Telegraph: The
effort Mdccm ,s making to establish a
hospital prompts mo to scud you a few
hues uu tho subject. Hundreds gather
ut tho hospitals tn this great city every
day, and to know the amount of good
tlmt ,s Umug done brightens our ad-
mirutnun and commands our respect for
a people who provide so liberally for
tho unfortunate poor.
Tho rnu-n-y magnificent hospitals are
but tho pulse by which strangers may
know that tao heart of chur.ty Is boat
ing with full vigor in this teeming und
soouiiogly thoughtless c»ty. Dozens of
tho best doctors minister cheerfully
each day to the crowds, which for the
most part, are the scum of tho world.
It wus among one of these motly
gatherings of yesterday that I noticed
a ueauy dressed child about S years of
age. Her lmtr was light and, bu.ng in
curls, shaded n pair of beautifully
shaped brown eyes, which seemed to
be without a blemish. I beckoned for
the cbJd to come to me, but its mother
came instead, and told mo that the
child had boon bora blind and that a
living had beeu earned for herself und
child upon the stage, but tnat times
were-so dull was why she bad to bring
the child to the hospital for treatment.
The teeth of the child told to tlio doc
tors of a mother's sinful life and of he
reditary disease thu cause of the child
haviing been bora bltad. Tho case Is
biiug treated aud the little girl will have
lier sight.
A most unpleasant task Is to tell peo
ple they wUl never seo again and seo
the chuuge of countenance from hope
to despair. One of tho most touehtug
scenes, was not the old nmn or woman
weeping for their lost vision, for their
time of hfc is nearly ended, nor wus
It the breaking down of a strong young
nma because lie could no longer see tho
heuutlful world, hut tho anguish of
young mother when told that sight
could not bo rcstrev.1l to her child, u
baby boy.
Rad and heartrending ns these scenes
are, they ure followed thick and fast
by brighter ones, and when we remem
ber that the snd cases are tho excep
tions and the brighter ones the rule,
ant’ when we see so many of tho blind
given their right and deaf made to
hoar, ive forget to some extent
weight of woe. Tho great mnjorlty of
those who come aro benefited.
.Not a mansion In tills city Is kept so
scrupulously clean us are these hospi
tals, nnd tho ouly distinction between
the wards of tho poor and ihe rooms
for those who pay Is In tho elegance
of'the furnishing. Tho nurses who at-
toail the sick tire required to be neat,
aro trained for tlielr profession anil
have diplomas glvou by tho Training
School.
Macon's greatest need Is a small hos
pital, well sustain si nnd kept ns these
are, freo of even the suspicion of dirt.
The luiUvldunl charity practiced by tlie
people of Maoou lu u scattered wuy v
it systematically given ivxmld keep hi
first-class condition a hospital, where
the rick would get tho best medical
treatment ta a wny most effectual.
Ro fur-reaching is the charity nf such
Institutions that I heard a ’nan who liml
received niedlenl treatment and modi-
chics free ask it tho hospital would not
refund his car fare. And so ignorant
are some of tlie foreign patients, one
to whose throat nn application was be-
to prosecute wise and judicious efforts
to tho consummation of the important
legislative reforms demanded by tlie
people. And the surest, best and speed-
test method of attaining this result is
by mslntutnlng a thorough and cun'
plete organization ot the party.

ORGANIZATION NECESSARY.
In Order to Gain the Fullest Suocei
Democrats Must Get Together aud
Work.
From the Monroe Advertiser.
The present political aspect In this
country clearly Indicates that a thor
ough organisation of the. Democratic
party Is very necessary. Event* ate
cropping out hirre and -here In various
sections of the country that should Im
press every Democrat with the ‘mpor-
tance of this step. This Is true In our
•tate. The factious contests between
Democrats—we might say to too great
nn extent—have been productive of
fruits that make • thorough organiza
tion of Democrats In Georgia very l-v
p rtant. There arc prejudiced feelings
existing and biased Judgments formed
that can be speedily snd effectually al
layed In no other way.
The light between Populism and Dem
ocracy in Georgia Is again on, ind she
way for Democracy to triumph Is for
every Dtarfocrat to align htmstlf with
the thoroughly organized ranks of Dem
ocracy and work constantly and con
tinuously to that end.
Whatever dlaeatisfactloa or disaffec
tion that may have token hold upon
some Democrat* is largely due to mis
information or mnspprehenston of the
real facte.
Of these the enemies of Demozta-..
take advantage and push them to the
fullest extent.
When the reel, solid facts are clearly
understood there la as Uttle, If not lest,
reason for .disaffection among Detno-
AT THE PAVILION.
The favorites made almost a dean
sweep at Sara togs yesterday. Five jut
of six were winners. It was Just the re
verse at Brighton Beach, where five out
of six,were defeated. The sport was too
tame to get up much excltemsit There
wasn't a surprise at either place. At
tendance In the pavilion goad; specula
tion only fair. The crowd will be larger
and business much lieuvler today. The
cards for this afternoon guarantee that.
