A CONTRACT. The Democratic convention of thn tuniIt district adopted the following resolutions: "We favor the free coinage of ellver at (ha ratio of 11 to 1, and demand that eueh law b# enacted without waiting upon the Haw procure of international agreement." Tlio convention of tho fifth district, of Itho platfonu committee of which the Edltar of the Atlaotn Constitution wns chulriimn, ndoptivl tho following: "We demand the Immediate restoration by till! government, Independent of any foreign power, of the free nnd unlimited coinage of ellver at a ratio of It to 1 The state convention of pressed Itself on the silver question ns follows: "We demand the Immediate pamege ot Such legislation us will restore silver to Its constitutional position ua a money metnl, and will eecure at one# the free end unlimited coinage of gold and allver on a parity, and give to every dollar In circulation, whether coin or paper, the eomo debt rnylng and purlhoetng power." The first of these resolutions was commended by tho (Jonatltutlon to tho slate convention In strong terms. Tho second, no doubt, represents lit words chosen by himself the views of tho od Itor of that paper. It Is therefore per fectly elcar whit? kind of .declaration our esteemed contemporary wished tho stato convention to make. That such u resolution was mndc, no otio who has read tho three resolutions above can Jiellcve. Tho first mid second abso lutely Ignore tho condition of parity, .which means lu this connection equal! ty of vnluo of tho gold and silver money the colulug of which 1 manded. They are exactly lu tho line of tho Populist platform. Tlicro cun l>o no doubt tlmt If Messrs. Ulnck and (Livingston obey Ihelr Instructions, they Will vole precisely as their Populist op patients would vote on tho question, If they gitl£c<l seats In congress. On tlio other hand, tho stnto convention. In its resolution, sticks closo to tliu old Dcm ocrntlo Idea tlmt coined money must have In It the vnluo expressed by tho stamp on Its face. Tlio convention's resolution was absolutely antagonistic to the Populistic resolutions adopted tn the fifth and tenth districts. Wr tiro sorry to say that nevertheless the Coiistlluttou Is endeavoring to inuko it appear tlmt In tlio resolution of the stnto convention the faction which it lends wuo it great victory. It seems to argue that the resolution means tlmt gold tuid allver money shall lie *nt partly In the statutes only-that parity mentn Is not purity In vnluo nail use. AVo regard this attempt unfor tunate. It Is calculated to reader use loss tlio sacrifices made by both tac tions in tho eouvoiitlon In the Interest ot party harmony. No attempt to uniko the three resolutions which wo have given mean the «amo thing eau bo sue cessful. It can only nccenttmtc differ- cneva lu the parly and weaken It at time wlion It is about to engage In contest with tho uuciuy. Its chnucos of victory wilt not be Increased by the result,ug want of harmony, nor by Iho Idea which Is sought to ho convoyed that Populists nud Democrats lu the ory nud intention. In regard to tho sil ver question, stand together. They do not stand together, and the sacrifice of Democratic principles whir our coat«nponury desires to ho made mid which It Insists lu the faro of fuc showing to the contrary has boon made cannot have tho effect of Increasing the colhnakum and oonfideueu of the Demorratle party lu Ucorgla. SKOULTURY SMITH ON SOUTH EltN RESOURCES. Secretary Hoke Smith omtrtbutes tho August nnmbar of the North Arne lean Review an article In which he out atrougly the advantages of South from tho point ot view ot capitalist seeking InvoatmeiiL Some of the facts Mated by him, drawn fro the census reports, liavo of course long been georaslble, bat ueverlhel, less.ni thuy teneli Iuih not he been impretved up.ni the public uiind Pot Instance, few Remember that I$UO tlio value of Iho farms of South waa about 35 per cent, or value yf all the fariua of the Ualted Slates; that during ton years, from llsSo to lortv, Uk> value of farm lamts in llic l^t-.uih imrvjxvl from 81gt0U.WXk000 «1,0.s, ihxi; ilial die y -utb produced ^obout to per eeuL of the corn of tlio coumry, oue-thlnl of iho wheat and about 35 |>er cent of the !.\c stocL, that of the total wealth of the country. flAdnfiyWiXOOO, fho South tt.thM.tWU.,MX We have been w i ustoiued of late yean to regard -muth as exceedingly poor au.l the North ns exceedingly rich, that we do not realise the change in their relative ■mittens' brought about by the war. Mr. Smith show! that the terrible loss the South caused by the war was not all that she suffered; that after the close of tho struggle the decrease 111 iho value or her property continued until about 1880, when the white peo ple hail fully resumed control of polit ical a (fairs and began to give these states good government Tv ahow wlrnt has been done since that time, Mr. Smith gives some Inter esting figures to prove the rapid ad vance of the South in wealth, lu the development of her resources nud the growth of her public school system, in tended to fit her newly enfranchised citizens to fully perform tho.r new du ties, thrust upon them as a result of the war. Ho shows that during the ten years from 1880 to 1800 tho true valua tion of real auil personal properly in tho thirteen Southern states increased more than fifty per cent., their expend itures for public kchool* more than ninety-all per cent, tho vnluo of their manufacturing product! more than one hundred anil eight per cent., the value of their fnnit lands more than forty per cent., mid tho vnluo of their farm products more than seventeen per cent He also shows that during tho sumo pe riod tho value of personal property In tlio New England and Middlo states wns only twenty-six per cent., that tho expenditures for public school! in crcoied less than six per ccnL, that there wns an actual decreuso In the vnluo of farm luuds of ten per cent., anil a falling off In tho value of farm products of more than six per cent I’erhaps tho most striking statement made by Mr. Smith In showing tho su perior Inducements of the South ns n field for Investment Is that the gross proceeds from agriculture la the South for 18U0 wan twenty-four nnd one- tenth per cunt, of tlio value of the In vestment, while In other states of tho Union It wus only thirteen and one- tenth per cent Mr. Smith believes that In cotton, tron, coal, and especially in tho manu facture of cotton, tho South lias re sources that must oventually make It ono ot tho richest aud strongest sections of tho Union. IVo think he lias done good service lu taking advantage of an opportunity to reach tho readers of n great review with so clear nnd consist ent a statement of fnots which though known to tho few nro unknown to tho vast majority of Northern and Eu ropoan Investors. We do not doubt tlmt in tho wlso and steady develop ment of theso resources tho South will found her future greatness. nnd In its consequences horrible, but is also pathetic. Society, however much Its horror of such u creature may be mixed with ty, cannot 'afford to treat him as a madman. It must treat him, for Its own safety, as it does mad dogs. A DAIRYMAN'S ASSOCIATION. The dairymen of Oeorgla and others interested tn dairying and stock ruis- ng, are Invited by Director R. J. Red ding to meet at Grifila on the ‘.’2d and '23d of this month, for the purpose of organizing u state dairyman's associa tion. Tho usual concessions on railroad rates, full fare going nnd one-third fare returning, has been secured by Mr. Redding, provided so many as one hun dred slutII attend. We think this Invitation should be accepted by those to whom it Is ad. dressed, and the proposed association started upon its career with a large membership of earnest men. During recent years there has been a very great Improvement in the breeding of live stook in Georgia, but there Is stiU plenty of room tor progress, nud espe cially room for new methods of getting from tho business the profits which le gitimately belong to 1L It was tluough united effort la the Western states that great dairying business was built up a dairying business that contributes many millions of dollars’ worth of pro ducts to our export trndo and adds millions more to (ho value of the lands where this business has been devel oped. There is no reason why the dairying business should not prosper In Ucorgiu, and wo bopo the means which huvo made it successful In the West will bo adopted here, with what ever modification may bo made neces sary by tho local environment. Mr. Redding will take pleasure In furnish lug full Information in regard to the meeting and the matters with which It will deal to any ono who may apply to him In person or by letter. His ad dress Is Experiment, Ga. JUDGE BARTLETT'S SUCCESS. The action of Henry county yesterday makes certain tho fact that Judge Charles L. Uartlett will lie tho Demo cratic nominee for congress in this dis trict All the counties of the district lmvo not yet held their primaries, but Judgo Bartlett has already secured majority of the whole membership of tlio convention. When nit tho circumstances are con- altlered, the race mudo by Judge Uart lett must bo conceded to bo one of tUo moot remarkablo In tho history of Georgia politics. Both of ills opponents were nlilo and popular men. Ouc of them, Mr. Cnbanlss, was serving ills first tend nud entitled lu tho opinion of many to tho customary compliment of at-least ono re-election. There was n strong fooling, too. In tho district that Blhb having had tho congressman for twenty consecutive years timuedl- Htcly preceding Mr. Cahnnlss' election, should yield tho honor for a long period to tho other counties of tho district, la spite of theso handicaps, Judge Bartlett carried every county outside tlio homo counties ot his rivals except Butts—and that he lust by only ono YOte-whlch had up to yesterday held Its primary. Tlio man able to rnitko such a race for tlio pnrty nomination will know how to tnko rare of himself la tho cant pnlgn with tho Populist nominee. \V predict for Judgo Bartlett an extended and highly useriil career in congress. A VICTIM OP BAD LITERATURE The telegrams brought the expected luformntlon that the boy Cacserlo, the murderer of President Carnot, bad been eoudoiuncd to tho guillotine. The also described tho proceedings tn the urt and the demeanor of the youth ful criminal. A man was never more justly condemned to death, aud the safety of society imperatively demands that he should die. Yet the story knives on the mind of tho render Impression of sadness rather than satisfaction that a murderous mou stcr Is about to bo made harmless. Cacserlo Is described as a mlld-tuan cored, gentle sort of creature, danger ous only* because he bad become thor oughly Unbind lu anarchistic We take It that his tuiod was In about the condition of the young fellows common lu this country, who have ed ucated themselves ou dime novels, ccpt that anarchistic literature deals with matters more serious than We cm cowboys aud Indians. Where < American boys have perverted th ideas until they believe that to swi ger arouad with a revolver at his hip and a sombrero on his head Is the bloat Conduct ot the manly man. this pro duct of European nnarvhy looks tip himself as the champion of humanity and upon assassination as the i virtuous of acts. Tbe spectacle ol ignorant boy assuming this nttitud wards all of humanity, making bin Its champion and doing so reversing his etude in.lid all the niKs of condnet which the experience of hu manity has established.

John Bolfeulllet came up from Macon on a late train last night and was at once the centre of a group of enthusiastic friends from all parts of ths state, ftir John has many friends from Rabun gap to Tybeo light. All of them were glad to hear, sa they had heard from other members bf the Ma- oon delegation. that Ills chances for being returned to the legislature are bright. The rest of the state undoubt edly believes that Bibb county should send him back to the legislature, for certainly Bibb has had m> better repre sentative than he. In tbe event of his return he will bn a very strong factor the speakership race. His services „ speaker pro tem of the last house demonstrated his ability In this line and he -will have very many warm support ers. not only among those who were in the last house, but from all parts of the state." i REPLY TO "A RKVERY" By W.

In a very large vote In Henry county MaJ. Bacon was defeated by a major- ity of 3. py reason of other engage ments lie find no opportunity to address tho peoplo of Henry, nnd to this fact and tho work In the county of lnllucntlnl friends of Mr. Garrard living In Atlanta his defeat Is no doubt due. The real stato'of public opinion Is shown, however, we think, by MaJ. Bacon's victories yesterday in Monroe nnd Putnam. They nro two tho most influential counties In the state. Tho verdict of theso centers of Intelligence, representing tho^ central nnd eastern parts of tho stiite, tests tlio fact tlmt In the opinion of Democrats generally MaJ.

We wish to impress upon the public the importance of iving particular uttention to the prices quoted in our adver tisement this morning. In this hour of the much parading of so-called bargains, the genuine values offered by reliable houses inay be overlooked in the desire to get cheap goods. But read carefully each item here, then come to our stores and be convinced that not only arc our prices the lowest, but that every item is as represented, and when you call for what we advertise, that thing itself you get. We do not advertise cheap and shoddy goods under names of well known brands of staple stuffs. Our stores are crowded daily and there is good reason for it. We are closing otif' Summer Dry Goods at prices that make trade, but they cannot last long. They m- e too good. So come while there is yet time. RACES YESTERDAY, How the Horses Ran at Brighton Beach and Saratoga. Brighton Beach, Aug. 4.—The pleasant weather and the Saturday hiUf* holiday were the means of toVmglng a large crowd to the Brighton Beach race trade today. The course was In splendid shape. Numer ous scratches had reduced an admirable programme to mediocrity. The betting was brisk. The talent were vlctorloua at first. Dr. Garnett, a warm favome; and Roburta, the second choice, securing the first and aecond places respectively. In the second race, however, Golden Valley, a 30 to 1 shot, beat George Dixon, the favorite, a 1 to 2, by a length and a lialf and First Light, a 12 to 1 outsider, did the unexpected In the third. The fourth and fifth were also dumps, and steeple chase racing la m> uncertain that the »alent re covered little of their lost coin by the victory of St. Anthony In the sixth race. AT SARATOGA. Saratoga, Aug. 4.—The greatest crowd of the meeting put In an appearance to day, halt of which were women. The grand stand was packed, and the betting ring was taxed to Its capacity. The prin cipal events on the cord were the Bitter Roof stakes and the Beverwyck stakes. In the former race, the crack Western colt, Llssak. ridden by Garriecm. was heavily backed as the winner, and was bucked down from 2d to 1 to 8 to 1. There was also a big plunge on Sadie, the favorlte.and Gutta Pencha was well backed When the flag fell Keenan was the first away, but he almost Immediately dropped back, while Annlsette and Llssak went »o the front, with Agltaor third. Annlsette won In a hard finish by a head. Agitator lasted long enough to beat Llssak a neck for the place. In the Bevewlck stakes the other big event of the day, Cicero took the lead, followed by Correy and Ballarat, and they ran In these plac&s until after the second quarter, when C&rrejr broke down, Bal larat then took the lead and finished at least three lengths ahead. IN THE PAVILION. There was a large crowd of smart spec* ulatlon on hand arfd business was brisk. A majority of them turned the bad fa vorites over to the commission men and put their cosh on the good ones. With theoe everything was lowly and tho "goosj hung high." It’s ever thus with winners. The only trouble Is that all can’t get them at the same time. Somebody has to pay the fiddler. The cards tor to morrow are very inviting.
