18 ANYTHING DOING?
It Is now within two montho of the
presidential election and wo Southern
folk have been holding our men to the
ground for aotne time waiting to hear
the thunder of the oratorleal gun* In
the battle-field* of the doubtful slots*.
Dot we hoar no aound of daahtng arm*
and we arc fearful leet *omo great
conflict be Imminent, the locale and
character of which we are not ap
prised, and that aome morning we ahall
wake up to learn that the reepeettve
forces have suddenly encountered each
other, after .the period of tactical gum
shoeing. and that the hospital corps
art busy carrying oft the dead and
wounded.
Presidential campaigns In the dap*
of the etage-coach used to begin In the
spring or late winter of their event.
Hut since 1840 when it waa necessary
for Democrats to wagon H all the way
from the Mississippi and the Ohio to
attend a political barbecue In Nush
villa and to listen to a “Jlnt ’spute" the
development of the railroad, the tele
graph, the telephone, the postal and
the newspeper systems has so facllt
tilted the trnnsmlaelon of news that
the campaigns have grown shorter
e o h quadrennial until today we llnd
an unprecedented brevity. That thle
H well for the country we have no
doubt, the reason being that business
Is less disturbed. A prominent party
advocate may speak tonight In Ban
Francisco and deliver a “keynote",
will be printed In Maine, Tessa, Geor
gia, London. Berlin. Parle, Ht. Peters
burg, Toklo, Munllu and In aJI other
great centers of the world’s population
tomorrow morning. While thle la true
aough, the fact remains thst the poo.
le are now disposed to make up thoir
minds, and that they are depending
far more upon the arguments i|nd In
terpretations of the public press, In
thn matter of the campaign Issues than
upon the spell-binders upon the hust-
lugs. The Democrats and Hepubllcatu
and Populists thus far are bearing the
heat and burden of tha day so far as
their respective partlea are concerned
and they will continue to pave the
way according to their own lights and
material, even if the national commlt-
teee bo shrouded in the gloom of ap
parent, If not real. Inactivity.

There ore many Confederate soldiers
In Georgia and othej Southern states
who were In these battles and they will
read of the maneuver* with great In
terest. Some of them may wonder
why it should be that the “Blues"
should bo called the "Blue*." while the
designation of "Browns" la used In
stead tf the "Grays."
Nobody should get hurt in this ex
penditure of blank cartridges, and we
do not oxpect to see re-enacted the
spectacle of the rout of the Federal*
In 1881, when the roads wero crowded
with gunlesat soldiers falling over one
another In the retreat to the cspitol.
Thera are episodes In both the battles
that will not be duplicated upon this
stage' of mimic war.

fact beyond dispute.

that claim we are not able now to

be able to testify accurately as to thaL
But even if It Is provable that Wat
son Is the only presidential candidate—
but, hold on—-what about James B.
Weaver In 1882? Still we say. If Wat

plead In defense, as the unfortunate
girl did about her baby—"It Is such a
little one!"

One of our exchanges that rather
sympathises personally with Watson
almost chsllcnges some one, any one, to

there Is "perhaps not a man In the state

We think Ham Small would be n good
match for him, and It la dollars to

building was replaced by one of ce
