THE MAC OK TELEGRAPH: SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 28, 1894.
THE NEW GOVERNOR.
PLEASE EXPLAIN.
Tho Atlanta Constitution tins a lead
ing cd.tulT.il nrtlelo In which Hie fol
lowing iKiragrnpb occurs:
"The most serious ilcficctllhs tbut
bare been inutlo in tho Democratic
party in Georg,a are due solely to tho
Party In charge that tb« Dcmlrratlo
party In congress la rcipnnxlblo for tbo
repudiation of tlic platform pledge und
for the failure to substitute Demucntllo
legislation for llio Sherman set. Tho
Constitution nud other Democratic
newspapers ih flip stsio have shown
tliue and aga,u ,li.it this charge was
utterly groundless, amt they would
have bceu nltlo \o prevent defection
hut for the fact Hiat, at n critical mo
ment In the campaign, tho people of
ih« aisle were treated to Iho spectacle
of a bushwhacking attack mudo on' tho
Mate plat form aud on that position of
tho Democratic candidate for governor,
'litis gave color to tho Populist chargo
that the Democratic party lu congress
Is responsible for' the repudiation of
tho llnanclal pledge of tho Chicago
platform. X'he efforts of tho Demo-
cratio Imsliwliaekcrg to popularise the
financial doctrine* of John Hhermun
and tho Republlnan party lu Georgia
not only drove many voter* out of tho
Party on election day, hut had tiio ef
fect of coollug tho ardor of thousands
of houeat aud Hlncuro Democrats."
\\ e hav* boveral times called the nt-
teuilon of our coutemporary to tho fact
dint tho defection* from the Demo
cratic ranks which it deplores occurred
nmlnly, If not entirely, fit (hut part
of the stute of Gcirg.s In which lA
olrculatlou la law*!, aud !u wlilch It
has tho cooperation of other umvapa-
pers devolqd ]lkdw»o to tho cause of
mnklug l'opuliat Uuotrino ou tho in.'-
roncy question seem to bo Domocrntlo
dootrlqe. Wo have seen no reply to
this, except that Mr. Crisp'* district
gave tho usual Domocratlo ma;or»ty,
cud Mr. Crisp la a froo silver man.
This Is not an answer at nil Wo do
nut underauiud Mr. Crisp's position to
lot that which la adrootted With so
much energy aud veliemeuco by our
Atlanta contemporary, nor do Wo t„.uk
that his position on itmnltvor t,ttrt*on,
whsthor for or ngtlitoi live coinage,
would tuaterla!ly affect the majority
he would receive In his d,strict. Not that
the peoplo of mat district cro not u- I
lercslial hi the silver question, tmt ho- !
cau*c Mr. Crtsp hits r,*ou to tho staturo '
c* * potutetan that enables him to over-
Shadow nil minor queatloas whoa Ids
claims for re-dection nro coustderod by
tils admiring utd devoted consUtueuts.
If It bo true, as our comempwary *aya,
that It nud other Domocratlo newspa
pers would havo been able to prevent
defections but for “tho fact that at a
critical moment In tho campaign tho
people of tho st.ato wore treated to tho
Wo think tlie people of Georg!* havo
reason to hope for a great deal from
tho administration of iheir state af
fairs which begun yesterday. It was
Inevitable tlint n young man of aggres
sivc disposition, In lighting tils way to
tho front In politics, should create con
sldcrahlo antagonism. It Is true, there
fore, that Mr. Atkinson goes Into
office with a considerable number of
Democrat* resen Jut of his success. But
this docs not mean that til* adminis
tration will have the Hostility of a fac
tion In tho party bo enntoud with. It
means only that lu oomlug to the front
he. In a certain degree, aliens a new
era In Georgia politics—the era of a
younger gcoeratlon than that which
fought tho war nud met tho difficulties
of the reconstruction era. There Is no
reason to bcllevo that this ucw genera
tlon Is In uny way tho superior, If it
be the equal, of the generation which
showed Itself so noble In meeting great
responsibilities. But it has the advan
tage of being suited In age, education
and experience to the ihnn in which It
lives, and In leading this generation
Mr. Atkinson has great opportunities
of serving his state and of achieving
distinction for himself.
It was charged against him -luring
his campaign, and reiterated from one
end of tlie state to tin other, that he
•was merely the chief llgnre of a little
group of active politician* who had un
dertaken to se-'ro upon tho gfVeruutcnt
of the state and divide out mnong
themselves Its offices. Wo look icry
little stock lu this charge. Tho so-
called ring seemed to us nothing moro
than the natural association nud friend-
lines* for each other of men similarly
circumstanced, who bad been In poli
tics together and who liked each other.
Nevertheless, tills cry of “ring" mndo
a Tory considerable Impression on tlie
public mind, mid Mr. Atkinson's ad
ministration will bo watched sharply
to see If in It fhero Is anything to. Just
ify the suspicion Uint he ia merely one
of a band of politicians In charge of
tlie affairs of tho state, and not solely
the representative of the people nud
responsible only to them. It vy.ll not,
ia the auspicious state of tho public
mind, take much to convluco tlie public
that there was nt toast some foundation
for the charges so freely made, aud
the public ouee convinced, will know
how to show Its resentment. Wo ex
pect nothing of tho kiud. Wo'havo
supported Mr. Alkiuson because vvo
thought It in tlie lino of the best pub-
lie-policy that, ho shoul-t lie elected.
We betievo that he has shown himself
capable of .'Mug to tlie level of any
occasion which no has boon obliged to
face, and wo think hi will continue to
show that capability, A man of un
deniable nblllty, of courage, of firm
convictions, famdlar with politics nnd
politicians, yet devoted to tho Interests
of tho people, wo expect to sen him de
velop Into ono of the best governors
the stnto bus bad, and no; less a good
governor nor less useful In every re
spect because ho may not find hla pith
so smooth a ono n* navo tlie governors
who preceded him.
SENSIBLE ENGLISHMEN.
Somo of tho most Important of tho
English papers Imvo taken up tho
ridiculous campaign started by tho nc-
gress. Ida Welts, tn England against
the Southern whlto peoplo, and treated
It much in tho way that It would lie
treated by Southern newHpnpcrs not
better Informed of tho facts of tho caso
than nro tho English newspapers. Thnt
Is to say, they have shown a disposi
tion to ho perfectly folr lu ilto matter,
and they are free of tho sickening cant
to treating tho negro question which
so often reduces otherw-so good and

north of England netv*papor, taktw tip
the matftr aud deals with It at great
length nnd In n very intelligent man
ner. From its criticism of tho loiter
written by the secretory of tho com-
mltteo and llio reply to that letter of
Governor Jones of Alabama wo tako
the following;
•The lynching of nesroe* in th* United
English civilisation if the reported
currence* nhoutd prove to be true, would,'
he observes, 'be deemed the work of dls-
ewed or Ignorant mind*, and wholly i g -
nored.' The governor of Alabama might
properly have pursued *uch a course; but
we cannot rogret that he was moved ta-
eteod to offer thla kind of rebuke. In in-
ternatlonal representation*, Uicro 1s not
ono code of manners for cranks
other for diplomats, however honorable
nnd delicate-hearted the crank* may be."
VVo understand that tfio directors of
the fair havo decided to suppress, or
have already suppressed, somo of m 0
features of the so-called Midway
ITalstince ut tho Dixie liacerstatu Fair,
in our opinion, this actlor, was not
uikun too aoon. From what we havo
heard, the worst of these features,
these so-called attractions, wera Jn

THROUGH EYES'-,
EEMINIFE.
The most prominent social event of
the past week was tho german given
by llio Tcrpsiehoreau Club at tho humo
of Mr. B. 0. Smith on Friday evening.
Courtesies aro often exchanged be
tween the clubs composed of U|o young
folks, und ou this occasion the entiro
Cotillion Club wero tho guests of tho
Terpsichoreans, oonacquonUy tho danco
was unusually large and brilllaht. The
girls were lovelier and moro charming
than over, if possible. Card's orchestra
furnished good music, aud at midnight
delicious Ices and wakes were served.
So, altogotlier, it was an occasion not
soon to bo forgotten by those present.
As hostess of tho evening, M:s* Cleve
land binith was *ho peraoaifirtiHoa of
grace and lovelln.-sA Ucr frock of
white organdlo with rink ribbons und
I«1 Frauce rosebuds, was must becom

Miss Carnes la one of the lovely debu

One of the most beautiful young
