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.

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.

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.

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* much-t*lkl-..g senators will Rave to give It to them or step down and out.

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.

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. RACES YESTERDAY.

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.
