In preferring nnotker over him n» IJlilted Sialett aennlor, the Telegrnph ojinnot ho suspected of imfrlendllueea to Mr. Turner. It la entitled, on tlio contrary, to the presumption that Ha opposition to Mr. Turner, ns a Candi da l e for the senate, is well us Its sup port of him, ns a member of the lower house, Is purely In tho public Interest. The situation Is that Georgia has tho choice of retaining In the station whero he can lie moat useful a very able and faithful representative, while gaining tho services of an equally able nud faithful reprweutatlvo m nuother sta- Hon, or of retaining Mr. Turner's ser vices. whllu room I* made for an un known and untried nu'i. It Is plainly evident to us that Georgia will lie bet ter off wlUi both Room a ml Turner In congress than with Turner alone. The people, In onr opinion, should have little regard for the personal am bition of either gontlemnn, but only for 1he public Interest. Mr. Turner Is cer tain to be re-elected to tho house. If Ills rnoo foe the senate were successful, tl special election would bo. necessary to choose his successor. Who can say who Hint successor would be? laioklng toward tlio Eleventh district, do wo see tiny man In public life or out of It who can be expected to do Mr. Turner's work, or who In proved ability c psres with MnJ. Bacon? The Telegraph does not. 'MaJ. Bacon’s election means not only tl first-rate senator but a first-rate mem ber from tho Elcveutli—and first-rate members of the house nro rare. If Maj. Bacon were not Mr. Turner's equal In nblllly, In force of character nud ns n speaker, the question would 1k> n dlfilrult one; hut It cannot be se riously contended that MaJ. llacou Is not Mr, Turner’s opuil In all these, re aped*. IUCMBDY FOR DlPMTHBltU. A few day* ago the Telegraph gave the general reaulls of experiments with Dr. Koch’s tiow remedy for diphtheria In New York and Brooklyn, Wo find In thu New York Tims* fuller reports of tho results In Europe of tho sanio kind of experiments with the now rem edy, now called "nntltoxlne.'’ ter the tlms> years Immediately pro coding the application of nnll-tnitao In the Kntpswc mid Empress Frederick's Children'* Hospital, at Berlin, l.OSl case* of diphtheria wees tivated. nud the mortality was 111 per cent. After the middle of last March 133 eases were treated by the nppUcaUon of tho new remedy, and the mortality loll to 13 per cent. It should be borne In mind that all these were case* In which the disease had Ihhmiuo established be fore the Injections were nude. Tho physician* In charge of the hospital ulso Inoculated seveuty-two yhlldA-u who bad been exposed to Hie diaesi mid only eight of these afterward l,ad dlptherla, tho disease appearing li mild form. In n paper read at the recent .Medical Congress ,\t Rintu-iVsth by M. ilanx, a similar reduction of tho mortality per rentage In the Children's Hospital at l’ana was reported. In tho four years ending wllh IStU the number of cases of diphtheria Irene 1 lu that hospital was i»71 uud then* were 3,039 dcalhs, the mortality being nearly Mi per cent. Between February 1 aad July M of this year nutl-toxlua was useo. In tips pe riod tho uuuUkt of cases XfUS 333 und the mnulier of doo'-ha lOp, showing a mortality of 34 1-2 per cent., or a reduc tion of more than one-half. The gen eral condition of the patients was very much Unproved by the Inoculations, ex cept wheu the disease had become very far advanced before the aml-ioxtne wo* applied. Tbe offset iqi >a the local 1,-shm* of the disease was very marked. There V* evidence that me inoculations diminished tho let loo of the dlphlhe r’.ric |k>l*oa on the kntucys and pre- i.-nted in many cases the appearance of albuminuria. An T.ugtlsb physician report* the treatmeat of seven patients at Fulkstaae with antl-toxlae. All or them recovered. In the Moablt Uo» pital at Berlin aml-toxiue i:aa used in forty-four casco lu tha three months ending on March 22 List, the mortality lieing 25 prfr cent., hut of the eleven children who died four were moribund when they entered the hospital, and In the coses of /inly five was there any. prospect of a beanfiol.il result from any courso of treatment. While such statiatlc* may not be con clusive, they do Indicate that a - very valuable agent for the treatment of this disease has been discovered. It should not bo forgotten that no one claims that the injections will prevent a fatal result when they nre made after the disease bus become well developed. The scrum of Hie Iduod of thu immune animal contains a substance hostile to the diphtheritic polsoa, and It is be- Ileved that this substance, when intro duced Into the system by subcutaneous Injection will overcome nnd neutralise the diphtheritic poison if the Injections are mude at a sufficiently curly date. That Is to say, wncu the anti-toxlne is thus applied to persons who have been exposed to dtphtjier'.tlc Infection, but In whom the sypiptoms of thu disease have not yet appeared. It Is believed to be an effective safeguard, for the poison In such cases ceil easily Is* over come. This belief Is supported by the statistics thus far available. And If the Inoculation Is made Immediately after the appearance of the disease, it is almost as effective. But utter the disease has become well developed nnd firmly seated the nuU-toxhio may be powerful enough to retard the progress of It and to ameliorate the suffering of the patient, although It rnay not pre vent a fatal Issue. Tho experience of hospitals does not affor.l an Ideal test of the cfilcscy nud power of the rem edy, beoause hospital physicians do not, as a rule, have en opportunity to apply the untl-toxlne In the earliest stages of the disease. Nevertheless, the hospital records which we huvo pointed out are quite encouraging, because they Judi cata a marked reduction of the mortal ity per ceutage In eases wliero tlio ap plication of tha remedy could not be made at the right time. made Just as safe as United States notes. It U only kb rough such Issue* tMt ghare can be any permanent and complete financial relief for tbe Sou.h. 'And to Oiah relief the Republican and Populist parlies ore opposed. GEORGIA FARMS AND FARMERS. GOOD ROADS. The people of Mecklenburg comity, N. C„ from belug Indifferent nnd hos tile to ruud Improvement, have come to be most enthusiastic on the subject. Forty miles of atone road have already been laid, and the work la being rapidly extended. At first the farmers, as In other parts of the country, were op- posed to paying tho extra rand tax, be lieving tliut they were uol to ho spe cially bcnollled, or that they would liuVe to pay tor the advantages accru ing to others. But they are .now eager to stand their share of the expense unit are clamorous for oxtoiislohs, even of fering to deliver stotto free In order to uxpcdlto tho work. The labor Is done by convicts, and tho Telford system is used. The roadbed Is made thirty feot wide and tho metal, ns road engineers cull tho stone, Is placed over about half of Its width., Tho other fifteen feet of Uni roiul Is made smooth for a summer road, being, when dry and hard, much better for driving over than a stone road. Other counties of the state, It Is reported, ore atieut to adopt the Meck lenburg plan. Sumo of the benefits de rived from good roads were set forth ut the recent Charlotte rojul congress. One of the spoukers said. “Tlie social isolation of country life Jias bceu great ly decreased. Farmers keep hotter horses anil better vehicles. Four hales of cottou cau bo‘carried to market with the team that was formerly required to haul one hale.

ABOUT NATIONAL AFFAIRS. The bolt of the Louisiana sugar planters, breruse the Democratic party would not continue to -pay them n bounty of 2 cents per pound on their product, doer tail seem .to worry the unterrWlcd IXmouractlc newspaper* of Georgia. Here are a few opinions about It: The Telfair Enterprise says: The Louisiana sugar (Canters bare gone over to the Republicans because the Democratic party 1* opposed to ptu- tOoKVin -rad tho bounty ayweip. They are altogether right In so doing. Mon who ram*, Che people robbed by high tariff* end bounties, ln'tlhetr interest, have no bustaet* In ’die -Domocral.lo dump. They belong with either the Republicans or klhe JVpultata. In the nhn tone Is this from tbe Grinin New* and Sun: Tne defection of the Louisiana sugar planter* Is of gnat value to Uhe Demoorakto party. Columns of argument* could never, ■how so ptalny sfiMdt party t* consid ered the beA friend' of trusts and un just tuxatKm by the persona most in- tcredhtl. The Uufttoch Times Is Inclined to be remonssrant and Indignant about the matter. It ears: "Louisiana sugar oilmens get the I etV: of the Increased price of ttselr pro duce. resuming from tbe 10 per cent." duty on new sugar. How then can they twve any equitable claim for the sugar bounty for the present year?.

To the Editor of the Telegraph: I learn that -mt copied na editorial or part of It, from a recent Issue of the Hawklnsvllle Dispatch aud News <n regard to Speaker Crisp mid the sena- t-irshlp, and that you made certain com ments thereupon, based on tbe assump tion that 1 wrote the editorial, und Hint you attached special significance to it because tUe writer Is -private secretary to the sp-iker. I failed to see that issue of tho Tele graph aud know what ivu* In It ouly by hearsay, and 1 have only just now heard of It. As a matter of justice to all conoorned, permit ine to say that I did not write Uio editorial in the Dis patch nnd News, and knew nothing of it until It appeared In prim. Hence there Is no significance attaching to It, as you suppose. Indeed, It would have been manifestly improper for mo to write such an article. It expresses the hope tliut tho speaker’s friends will ‘‘quit annoying lilm to outer the sena torlal race." Sucn an expression from me would he simple Impertinence. I am not the editor of the Dispatch and News, but corresponding editor; and I am not responsible for what tbe paper says outside of lily contributions to It over my Initials. . . Speaker Crisp's position In regard to the senatorshtp ought to be well under stood. Some months ago a number of the citizens of Rome, Gu., wrote him a letter. In which they urged him to an- nounce himself a candidate, aud as sured him Hint they were confident he would be elected. In reply he wrote them a letter in which he declined to i-omply with their request, aud gave his reasons therefor. Tills letter was pretty generally published throughout the sta to. So far ns 1 know, he holds the same position now that he did then. If he has given any expression to the contrary, either In publlo. or private, I am not aware of it. Very- reaps fifully J. T.

Brown’s Iron Bitters. Monticello, Sept. 24.—(Special.)—Supe rior court Is In oosslon, Judge Jenkins presiding. At noon a large audience gathered In the court house to tlston t‘o MaJ. Bacon on the auctions of the day. MaJ. Bacon was Introduced by Col. Wil lis Newton dt Machen, chairman of the Democratic executive committee. QlaJ. Bacon hi opening Ms speech said tt was the first time he ever spoke In Monticello. hut not hi* first effort In Jasper county. Tweoty-elx year* ago, In 1803, he was presidential elector tor the then -Fourth district, and the au thorities of Jasper selected -Hillsboro a* the rallying point. -He spoke then In behalf of the Democratic party, and af ter the lapse of twenty-alx years, under assignment of the state' executive committee,he is In Jasper county again speaking for -the party, and In all these years there was In -him no variableness nor shadow of turning. The epoch we have passed through during 'these twenty-six years has been eventful, he said. In that time we have had only one party In Georgia—a most remarkable fact—without a parallel In history. Our people had been oppressed by war and sorely tried, and an enemy was at the door 'threatening our very civili zation. All that men hoid most dear was.at stake. Our social fabric was in danger. All other Issues fell inito Insig nificance. Such conduct challenged the admiration of the world. In that great day of trial there was 'but one party, one rook of refuge, one protector, and a maat took It as an Insult to be railed other -than a Democrat. We are now.however, confronted with different Issues. It is not so easy to unite our people. Demoralization has followed 'hard time*, low prices of cot ton, and depression of business, and men under financial pressure have be come more loose In their notion* and mare careless for their country's good. In the day of our unity we realized that the Republican party was hostile to ev ery Southern interest, and today that party has relaxed none of Its hostility und enmity. ilaj. Bacn set forth the Republican doctrine and showed up its antagonism to Southern views and Ideas, always ar raying Itself against the South. The Republican press and magazine* and Its entire literature misrepresented the South and Its people and held then) ur In a false light before the world, om Republicans were never content unite* they were striking at the very root of our hupplneas and prosperity. , Under such conditions no voter should sever his connection with the Demo cratic party, the only party which could resist the evil legislation of the rich Republican Party of the North. While the DemocrVtlo party has been the means by which In the past we have es tablished a supremacy of virtue and in telligence over carpet-bag rule, nnd while :t has stood for nil that was best tn the past. If It Is not now the cham pion of the principles on which rest the fabric of 'our prosperity and happl ness It has no claims to support. "What party can best advance your Interests?" he asked. "Is the. Demo cratic party still entitled to bur loyal ty? If It 1* the party -best calculated to subserve the Interests of the people then no man has the right to csreletwly tain another and thus break down that which Is best for the country's good." The voting power Is a serious rcapon Blblllty. It Is the duty of a man not to vote carelessly, but for the best inter ests of his country. How shall the people vote? Some say the best Interest of the country 4s In the Democratic .party; othens say the party has forfeited its right to the people'* confidence nnd trust. It is a melancholy spectacle to see some of our people going Into a third party and setting up a separate existence. Independent of the old party, which must result In evil to us all tn producing passion, strife, Jealously, prejudice and 111 will. Every considera tion of prudence, of duty, of wisdom warns us not to divide, not to separate, not to destroy our unity, but to remain one people, on* brotherhood, one party. We cannot afford division as long no the Republican party, our natural enemy. Is alive and eager to strike a blow at our power and strength and prosperity. The great principles on -which the fab ric of Southern happiness nnd Southern prosperity rests arc found only In the Democra tic party. The charge, continued the speaker, made against the party Is based on the Idea that our country Is not prosperous. Befre we should be condemned for wan t of prosperity it should be shown that the Democratic party produced this want of -prosperity. This country Is en- ilfrled to the largest prosperity. Its agri cultural and mineral resources nnd Its ruturel advantages entitle H to the highest degree of prosperity. What are the causes of a want of prosperity? The Democratic party, recognising these causes, planted Itself on a platform to remove the ca-uses and give the people not only more comfort, but advance ment and progress. The conditions mtut be favorable be fore a nun can make money, and the laws must be such that what he has shill not be unjustly filched from him. The tariff and the money question are the two great questions. The tariff re- lat« to the question whether a man shall keep that which ts hi* own or permit laws to be made to force the man to stand and deliver hi* own to enrich ■nether. The McKinley law will be put back on us If the Republicans get back in power, and the people of Georgia will pay 113,000.000 to 820.00e.000 In tariff taxes,and two-thirds of It will go not to the treusury.tnt the pockest of manu facturers. Tbe -McKinley law drew from the people of the United States over and above the old tariff law 8185,- 000.000. The Republicans always hold to the view that the South has no rights they are bound to respect A people cannot be prosperous with out a proper financial system. A proper financial system is one that does not conduce to AUHnat prices. A man will not invest In land or a house If he knows It will depreciate In value. The result Is he lets his money lay Idle. The result of Idle money Is stagnation std It affects everybody. The merchant dlschargra his clerks, the farmer his hands, the contractor his assistants and business paralysis ensues, What has iwoduced tbe filling prices ami the star- nation eo general? The financial sys tem Is 'largely responsible. A great Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov’t Report Absolutely pure For sale at ■wholesale by Sy 15- JAQUES &■ TINSLEY and A. B.

Restore eilver. Gold and sil ver, must again be the -Jolnt money of the world. St was an outrage to the progress and prosperity of mankind when silver was dethroned. Our peo ple. he said, must cultivate the patriot ism that lies in patience. The old party will bring silver out all right yet and do other needful things. Great evils ore to be corrected, great wrongs re dressed. burden* to be removod and rights to be restored. The Democrats have not been in cower long. The party must legislate not for Gebrgia alone, bu* for 70,000,000 of people. To do this properly takes time, and we Should not grow too Impatient. The Republican party says in Its plat form It favors bimetallism, but plants lti»lf on international agreement only; the Democratic party favors It by Inter national agreement or by safegunrda of legislation; the Populist favor it. regard- lees of any conditions or results and at 16 to 1. The Democratic party, national and state, favors the restoration of silver as prior to 1S73. The state platform goes farther than the Chicago platform and looks more to American legislation with proper safeguards. The Democratic party demands sound money as necessary to prosperity. We ore not threatened with too much money. In France the per capita in silver Is $18; in the United States It Is $8. If all the silver dug In the United: States In one year were coined. Into dc liars, 4t would only be $1 per capita. Hence, we are in no immedate danger of being flooded with silver beyond, the danger line. From 1813 to '73 silver was at a premium; Its degradation came after 1873. Sliver will be restored. We will have bimetallism yet. It is coming. With a contraction all men see the fu tility of a progressive industry. There Is absence of investment; enterprise lags, and Idleness usurps the place of energy. Crops may ever be so -rood, and man nnd nuture work co-operating and people do ali they can, yet mohey is essential to prosperity, and there must be a proper circulating medium and a proper circula tion of money. The system of congesting all the money In big centres will not do. It hurts the South and those of us living on the cir cumference of the Union. We need, state banks under proper guards to gtve us a local currency for home purposes and to be auxiliary to federal money. The Populists have no national hopes. They can never control. A party must have power, a controlling power, to effect reforms or enact a.iy leginlatlon. No one looks to the Republican party to lower the tariff or reform the financial system. The Populists cannot do It, so why throw away votes on a party so weak? We only weaken ourselves to bother with them. We Increase the power of the Re publican' party when we vote with the Populists. All roads which lead from tho Democratic party lead to the Republican party. Accept nq doctrine, said the speaker im pressively. ‘‘Affiliate with no party which leads from Democracy. The old Demo cratic party, with all Its faults* 1b the best party in the country, iweep it us the fathers left It—the friend of the people." The Populists, ho continued, when in convention In Atlanta Indorsed the Oma ha platform, and accepted It as their national creed. That platform does not suit the South. It is a Western platform. It is at war with our Ideas of this govern, menu ' )», ,i The Democratic party has not forfeited its right to the confidence of the people. It is struggling in the. rlgU’t direction, Tbe task of reform Is no easy one. A vo* woriT lies before the party.

No one can say the Democratic party ha* not done well lh the state of Georgia. For twenty-three year* It has teen in power, and for these years, It has, aa a party, been true to the people, und mind ful of the poor and'bccdy. Maj. Bacon closed his speech with a strong appeal to the people not to allow anything to beguile them Into strange paths, but to remain together. The South needs unity in the future os In the past. Unity gave her strength*oni power. Is is Impossible to give the reader a faint conception of Maj. Bacon'll speech In this short and -mperfcct report. But the report is not without uso If it whet the attitude of the realer to go and hear Maj. Bacon expound the great principles of true Democracy. One would never know from Maj. Ba con's speech In Monticello that he was a candidate for the United States senate. He mode no allusion to It. His controlling thought seemed to be tn restore to the people their old love for tbe party, and to qicken their enegies In *ts behalf. Nor did he alude to the letter he wrote some sixteen years ago, when the Repub lican party had for :ts policy the demone tization of stiver, in which letter he set forth evils which Would come to us from such a policy. He leplcted* the then trouble which would follow. It would prodifce contraction, and contraction would produce agricultural and industrial depression and falling prices, and to prevent these inevitable disasters he plead for state banks and urged a course in congress of Immediate agitation of the state bank question, so that the consent of the West and North would be had in time to guard agilnst the coming day of depression end stagnation. Others did not. at the time, sympathize with his penetrating insight Into the future and his suggestion was not acted upon. JASPER WILL DECLARE FOR A SEN ATOR TODAY. Machen. Sept. 24.—(Special.Maj.
