A GRAND RALLY AT BARNE8VILLE General Evans Delivered a Splendid Speech in Behalf of Afkinson and Democracy. BLOUNT AND GORDON SPOKE liurlwell the Seen© of » Great P illltcal feathering— -neon, Garrard and Other* Shelled the Bueniy With Telling Kflficl. Barnesville, Aug. 25—(Special).—The great Democratic rally at Barnesvllle today was a maguifleent success. A great crowd melt Gent Gordon unci v .wGen... Evans at the depot, 'the band playing "Dixie’' us they alighted from the cars, and marched to a beautiful frove. As the two old war-scarred veterans sat upon the rostrum, facing the large audience, they presented in themselves- living pictures of holy nerooriea Gen. Bvaus was looking well. Nobler than any epitaph upon his tombstone as statesman or -warrior will be the grand wwk done for the last thirty years in the cause of the Master. Tils defeat has made him con queror. and has aroused In the hearts of all the people u. peculiar tenderness of feeling for him. Gen.' Gordon was the same as ever— majestic of mein, composed: his very looks inspiring admiration^ Dr. J. P Thurman delivered the opening address of welcome, followed by MaJ. T. J. Hunt, who introduced the speakers. Gen. Evans spoke first. He said: Fellow citizens: I have no gauge to day by which I can measure the grati tude 1 feel for uhe words that have uilen from the Ups of my friend (Mr. bunt), and for the presence of this large company, called together -to lis ten u> myself and my honored empau- ioii upou uie issues oi -liic oay. 1 know iu<*L x am m uie uiouae of my personal menus. Dong years since the people at uns lovely city and this bpieuuid county won iny aeepost u-ifectlon, mid mat affection abides with me to the present moment. I am here to spcait to you tuaay tor the same reasons '..hat would move me to speak in your pres ence upon any question, that involves your xicrsonaJ, individual and general welfare. 1 will not assume that I am in the presence of a people unreusuu- unly discontented with their situation. Admitting tlm there are troubles ex isting, not caused by -me Democratic party, but brought upon .us by the ad verse legislation of tne great euemy of popular government and of Democratic policy, I shjill-still direct your atten tion to the'fact that we a res urrou rul ed by* circumstances of such char acter aa would inspire us with the warmest hope that Deter times are ly ing >u8t anend of us. DTWue Provi dence has been smiling upon the state of Georgia. We are making hog and hominy in abundance for our people, aui rhere is but little of dissatisfaction throughout the state. We ure a thrifty people, In spite of the difficulties by which we are surrounded, and the em barrassments under which we suiter mv not occasioned by reason of any fault of our own, nor by reason of any failure of Providence on our behalf, buc simply because we have been brought into these straits through long . depressing influnece of a policy which has held this country by the throat for a whole generation. I shall not speak today for the purpose of making any apologies whatsoever for any falluro that the Democratic party may lr.tve nude to meet public expectation, for I conceive than no such apologies are necessary. I shill talk to you concern ing straight, pure Democratic princi ples, for the reason that I believe 'Unit tfrose principles jre found In the very constitutional structure of our govern ment; thit they % are principles essen tial to the development of truth, hu man rights and human liberties; that they are eternal principles, and that they will prevail in this land to bring peace and prosperity to our entire peo ple. Tile Democratic principles are the rock upan which the people of this great nation may build tlie fabric of a government that shall be a model for all the nations of the whole world. I shall speak fully and plainly for Democracy, because I believe that WJJg » the party of this country. Tae profoundesc convictions of my Judgment are A at as s people we have no resarc outside of thtt party. So P«>Dle to twite wvrh; no party -to go to, »>rhere to point the prow of the ship or our state except to that port where D t rnoC w tIc P rtD CipIes tire found and wnere pemocria^t government can be bii. fApplause.) It is very evident there Is a deter mined effort made throughout this die country of ours to produce dlst* faction with Democratic policy. Demo cratic principles and the Democratic party. I sha'.l not assail the motive by witch -this dissatisfaction Is uttemp’t- ed to he engendered. It is In tt large pa-rt merely, partisan; * It is In some part on uocount of mistake. Reasonable men will not listen to the demagogue w*ho seeks .to dissatisfy the people with thu principles and policy of die Demo cratic party. Ybu observe that every difference that ex,sis among Demo- crats upon even trivial issues inside of Democratic lines, has been magnified and exa-ggerated as 4f those differences were of such a ch'amcter as to forbid the possibility of coming to any agree ment. Every faT.ure that has been made by the Democratc party w over* come tne terrible obstacles which it has encountered -In its efforts to reform this government, and 'to restore tm* rig.its of the people to the people uud bring back this entire nation once more to Its constltiriono.1 privileges has bee>n magnified Into some desperate «vu«u of fealty to principle and some desperate lack of patriotism. I have no sympathy wh.t'.tVBi- with these attempt.--, up- a false ground to breed such discontent ami bring our people throug.i/iu mis nacion into discord. I regret thou even Democrats have, here ami there, lent tiemselves to this effort to produce d’.s.Vi'iJsfuction. (Applause.) I concede tba'; vnere ifc a liberty of discussion in* s. 1 • .the 1 ><“in •cr.ii.it- P.itnrly; w*» are «-n- ay -IVavaoruU't-* <1* If t am.mg our selves within the sphere of Demo cratic p>atform and policy. Any party chat is organized so as uo forbid free discussion iwJuiita Its rim Its a a tyranny, and Vito Democratic party does not deny th-is ,rlgh*t to its members, ,bu* leaves us free, Wholly and fairly to discuss public -measures, and Chen to come to an agreement and advance as a united people to administer the government put in hands so as to bring tne greatest happiness and prosperity tc>-.ho j) -oplo. I nlnll ( therefore, at the outset siy chat 1 see no reason growing out of difficulties which fairly exist among Democrats for auy desertion to Che ranks of 'the enemy of Democracy. (Cheers.) Let us deprecate all division of every kind. They are the bathe of good parties and should not be encour aged. I know of no Buoh division—no such proper classification of Demo crats a3 '^tfnrindstratkm Democrats” and "anti-admlnhrtraltton" Democrats. I do not understand that we have any proper clarification of ourselves as "gold bug”. Deurocrats and "silver crank" Democrats. These are epithets that are npplle to us by the enemies of Democracy, and I have learned not to go to my enemy and nor to borrow nreihode from those who opppse my party. I am, as you are, Democratic from principle and from conviction, be lieving in my deepest heart that my p-a'trtoDc duty to my people und my country lies in imy standing firmly, fair and square, eTwayfc, through thick and -thin, In disappointment and In success, In defea't \>r 'in overthrow, by the party of constitutional liberty for this coun try. ( Enthusiastic cheers.) Some of you may meet with this statement: Thwt the Democratic party has not fulfilled fts pledges. Let me frankly answer that the pledges of the Democratic party made In Its platform have not yet been fulfilled; but I am not going .so desert my party just sim ply beca/use obstacles have been thrown in their way, Which up to this day have prevented them from accomplish ing the great hope of the party. (Ap plause.) You state to me that some Democrats have ignored the principles Of the party and (using your own words) "tfbey are'not good enough Dem- ocra'ts for you." Let that be true; but I did not learn hi the Confederate war to cast down my flag because some body is not faithful, and I have not learned to betray my church .because some men were hypocrites. (Tumult uous applause.) h You say to me the party is In such peril, euch dissensions exist that it is on the eve of overthrow and that It will soon cease to have any power In the Uni/ted States. Do you understand that in using that argument with me you a*e asking me to desert the party In the time of its distress? I h'nve learned In my life that the hour of need —of danger—of peril. Is the time when a man shows his manhood, his fealty to principle and his faithfulness to his friends. (Applause.) Were ail the East to slough and all the West to desert and the Denfrcrntlo flag should be com pelled to retire from its present place on the crest of Sts present high achieve ments. I would march wKh that flag still in the hour of defeat and show my self to be a tru»* Democrat—true to the principles of my party and my pe’o- ple In the dark hour of Its defeat. (Ap plause). I have witnessed recently an exhibi tion of Democratic fealty that charmed my soul. Going lately at the command of parties Interested In our great inter national exposition to the city of Wash ington, It fell to my lot to he a witness, • >( th.* final struggle of Di-m-u r.icy with it* graft antagonist In the celebrated tariff controversy. I sat in the gjllery and listened to those brief, pungent, earnest discussions pro and con, and saw the shots fired at the South and the Democratic party, and I listened to replies of Northern and Southern Democrat!*. It wusji severe tonleal. But the Democrats were true in their fealty to party principles. This filled me with hope. In the gallery as I was I felt like giving three cheers for Dem ocracy. Let us criticise our congrK*s- men no -more. have trials to un dergo. As I lor' resound me I saw the portrait of Jv /fJon, and he seemed to emlle upon Democratic effort to uphold hf.s principles. We have reason to take hope and courage. We aye as sailed today by the tame old enemy that has confronted us for thirty odd years; the antagonism between Democ racy and Republicanism Is a vital one and the conflict is absolutely Irrepressi ble. There Ls no compromise between these two antagonists and no truce for one single hour can exist between these two armies. One holds to one theory of government directly opposite to the other. . The Republican party Is the 1 creature of fanaticism: the Democratic I party originated among the fathers who constructed the constitution of our country. The Republican party, foster ed by sectional feeling, sprang Into ex-1 istence in a time Of sectional discord; the Democratic party the national 1 party, attempting at all times to keep peace among the nation and to produce equal prosperity among the state* and equal rights among the people. The I Republican party Is proud, pampered, arrogant und pnverful; it can be nv?t with euocens only by the Democratic party. Shall we help that terrible foe I of popular liberty and human right by deserting Democmcy?. Has the time come when these Georgians will, in any possible way, give aid to this enemy of our country? Look at Its record for thirty-four years and answer. It has created that vast pntollo debt under I which we have been suffering; It found ed, on account of thit debt, that na tional bank system which we desire to I ref /nm; It has constructed under that national bank system a financial policy I th*t V * been for the especial benefit of its own eection: it took the money of I our people that was to be paid at one price and turned it Into the hands of I theae great corporations :rt a price I double to them who bought it. It t>rigl-1 A GREAT RACE AT SHEEPS’HEAD Tfenty-fivo Thoi'sand People Witness tns Greatest Raca Ever Run on That Course. THE BUTTERFLIES THE.WINNER Of th, $03,000 I’rl..—Jtcury. Sln.beil Tlielr Mounts Fearfully in Their *Y«ln KntlenYor* to Get the Lead Under the Wire. ‘Continued page a) New York, Aug. 23.—Tlie second fu turity was won by Tlie Butterflies, af ter a bitter struggle with Brandywine, lu the presence of 25,000 people, ut Sheepslieud pay this uftcruoon. She can Justly claim to bo the queen of ilio 2-year-olds of the world. Her victory Is one thut will live long In tbo minds of nil that saw It It will bo years be fore any colt eclipses tbe time. She lowered tbe record to 1:11 flat for the race. Tbe best previous time was made by Morello. He won the $30,000 prize In 1:12 1-5. Thou again, sho Is tlie first Ally to win the ltelcli stake. These facts alone make her victory a memo rable one. Another coincidence about her vic tory Is that sho Is tbe second represent ative from Gideon and Daly's string to capture the coveted blue ribbon of tho 2-year-old world. Tills popular Arm carried off tlie prize la 1801 with His Illghuess. All tho conditions for today's great race were favorable. Tlie track was In perfect order, tlie weather was de lightful and the attendance large. Tlie only drawback was ocbasloned by the delays at tbe post. Tho entiro .after noon's sport was marred by long waits, while tho horses were sklrmlslilug about waiting for the signal to start. This was tlie case with nearly every race. It was 4:13 o'clock when the sev enteen candidates for the futurity Hied past the staud on tlielr way to the post They were nil In tlie starter's hands nt 4:20 o'clock. Seventeen minutes had cljpsed before anything approaching a break was made. Then' all hut Cnll- fora’a. Agitator, Wnltzer and St. Ve ronica came out to the furlong post, y -Another long wait. In which they nnj- paired to he tolling turns as to who should spoil the start, occurred. Sev eral small breaks occurred and finally, ufter they had beeu nt the post forty- seven minutes, the flag went down mid the “they are oil" rang out Into the air. .Monaco, California, Tho Butterflies, Gutta Perchn and Hon eh ester got away oil practically even terms. As tey dis appeared In the dtp Tlie Butterflies was leading, with Agitator, Uutta Perelta nud Manchester nt her saddle glrtli. The dust lilil ihe otliera from view. The Butterflies was leading with Agi tator under the lash only three-quar ters of n length away, when they came Into sight again. Monaco anil Uutta Percha hud given up the struggle. They swung Into the home stretch with Tlie Butterflies hugging tlie rail, a couple of lengths to the good of Man chester, who headed Agitator for a fow strides. Griflln was taking matters easy when tbo Inst furlong post was reached. The Butterflies had her Held spread-eagled and was bounding along like a big kitten, with Ag.tator and Manchester alternation in second place under the severest kind of punishment "She walks 111" rang out from thous ands of throats. The rich prize was not to be carried off so easily. Tlie cry was premature. Brandywine, tvbo got off In the rear rank, and who was ima- ble to get through until tho last furlong of tho race was in progress, then made his big effort Clayton urged him for ward with whip and spur. He sent Brandy wine alter The ButtorlllcM like a shot from n cannon. Urillln saw Ida danger anil began to urge liis Ally. Hlio responded to the last gasp. It was plain to all practiced eyes that Tho But- terfltes was tiring fast* The torrllle strain was lolling all p by slop and lin-!i by lueh. Amid a breathless silence Brandywine closed up the streak of daylight that was between them. He was running and good. Tlie Butterflies was wavering. Grlltln began to lasli her mul tlie excitement was intense. Griflln fought like a young demon anil the wonderful courage of the lllly alone stayed olT defeat. Brandywine man aged to get his nose to her withers, but could get no further before the all-im portant line was crossed, and tho fu turity of 1801 went on record ns hav ing been won by The Butterflies l>y a neck from Brandywine. Agitator was third, two lengtlis away. A length and a half away came Connoisseur. Mnn- ebester’8 struggle nt tlie brad of the home stretch proved too much for him His stable companion. Counter Tenor, warn pulled up lame and flnlslii-tl hist: Monaco's bolt was shot before they hail gone n Couple of furlongs. California was never dangerous when the race re solved itself Into a struggle. Nettber were Wnltzer, Canterbury, Cromwell. Doggett. Sadie. St. Veronica or such cattle as Bombasetts und t'rtin. The victory was a most popular one. Apart from the futurity irtildh over- shslowel everything else an excellent day’s raging wus witnessed. Hugh Penny pu: tt* talent In good humor by cankering home a winner of the first race. He wax an even mbney favorite. Ifal,-no and Datirbrs, the second and third favorites respectively, di'd more •than was required -of them In4h* sec ond race. They beat tbe favorite, Mc Kee. Henry of Navarre gave DorUr twelve pounds nod beat him for the Dolphin t:: ikes. Tbe finish of this .-ace between this pair was one of the grand est duels teen -this soaein. They dis puted every Inch of sbe ground of tbe last fur fang end a half and crossed the llr.e noses only -apiit. Henry of Na varre won. but he earned tiln victory. Domino, to tbe bitter dhuppoatment of many, dodged the Issue in the fall •ukes They were captured ‘somewhat easily by lady Violet from Correction, wthb iiftjonlebed many honaemwv by (funding 0 drive. St. MIchutrt was a trot favorite tn the sixth race. Taral rode him. It was ®trge:y, if not entirely, due to Torsi's Indomitable energy that St. Michael ■won the race. Taral drove him up tils fleld amt drove film .through It. He Hogg.* t him for fully three furlonx*. and to this •treaCmoni Ills victory must be ascribed. A bookmaker nuined Brewer, doing urine os under tho name of Iitie Congress Club, weldhed- ufter the third rate. His sheets showed be 'had taken in *023. He left $94 in his (Mull box. AT SARATOGA. Saratoga, Aug. 2i.—with the races of today the meeting at this truck closed, rt has been highly successful from a ttnon- ctal standpoint, and the so-Journecs regret that their principal afternoon amusement la a thing of the past. The principal event on today's card traa the race for tho Spen cer stake for s-ycar-otds at ons and a quarter miles. Lamplighter waa a top heavy favorite at 4 tn li, with Yo Tam- beln, the second choice, at 7 to a. At the start Victorious went to the front ond re mained there to the stretch with Yo Tam- beln In second place. She took the lea.! after passing the ktat quarter, and In n furious drive .Iordan Innded her a winner by a neck with Iaimphghter only a head before Victorious. Glen Lilly cleverly wun the race for 2-year-olds and the Trophy Gelding, 8 to 1 stiot, captured' the raro for 3-year-olds., AT THU PAVILION. The showing, made at fiheepshead Ray yesterday was four Urals snd two seconds, and the talent'declared a dividend. They never full to do that on a break of that kind. The attendance wna large and they wore all Speculators. For the next Blx weeks there will be the grandest nf raving nt tbe best tracks tn the country. It follows that tho pavilion Will lie crowded every day during that time. Glance at Monday's enrd. Two slake races end the other events have quality and quantltygaiore.
