Rtarting out immediately after the war, the first bindues* venture with which he was connected, so f*r as I am In formed, waa a nursery near Atlanta, from which he proposed to sell fruit trees to the peo ple of Oeorgla. I don't, know how many he sold around Columbns. I bonaht some from him my* self, and waa not satiated with the transaction. Within a short time bis enterprise failed. Ue left it. or it was abandoned. This was of the least Im portance. The next enterprise in which he embarked was in which any man other than General Gordon was I the United States Senate, who had ever able to swindle this colossal fraud. Gordon la I been bounred by practically a uuanlnmus re-elec- extreinely enthusiastic lie is fickle, and when he j tiou to this high position, should have resorted to gets u on any enterprise that he winhcs to estab-1 tbts flimsy effort at explanation—these contra* lish with other men's money, he is one of the beet I dictory subterf.iges—should have permitted hlw- talkers tbat yon ever listened to.

Credit was ex tended to him. and as ha said the other day in Dub lin—l never knew before how man^iuilu he bad — be started five saw-mills, lief, re h«- had a single mill In operation, before he had cot a f<x 1 of^un- her, th* port of Brunswick was tnroniod wl7n a fleet of ship*, waiting for cargoes of lumber to be cut by his mills. While they were waiting, of coarse they were on demurrage and damage • waa thus incurred. By this and by general bad management, faulty Judgmeot, or whatever else you may term it Gen. Gordon waa reduced to failure. Ha admitted him self. for a wonder, in this same Dublin speech, that he had failed at sawmilllng. HIS SCHOOL-ROOK SCUEMH. The next we bear of him ia In canvassing Georgia and other Rules In the bouth for subscriptions to a Kcbool-book publishing concern. Ue came before ue with ibe plea that the minds ef our children wn* being poisoned with wrong eUtemente with refe enee to the history of the country, in which we werepeculiaily into sated. He suggested aa a corrective of this evil th# establishing of a publish ing concern with capital subscribed by boutho u peer le f <jr the purpose of publishing such school books aa we were willing to place iu the bands of our children. From the heat information that can he obtained, he raised from people in Ueortcia and in the Carolina* and other Houthern HUtea the sum of flM,OUO. There la a statement in connection with the raising of this fund to the effect tbat he received 32 per cent com mission for his service* in soliciting these subscrip tions. Whether this Is true or not, I am not pre pared to sUte with absolute certainty. This money waa invested, much of it by the peop e of Georgia, and if any reonlts have ever come from it, either in the way of book-publishing or returns upon lu in vestment, I have never heard of it, except a very amaU percentage, probably 4 per cent upon tha original subscriptions, lo other words, this con cern, founded upon a theory so plausible, and which, in the bands of a comp* eat mau, would have been a great snccaas and a great blessing, un der the management of General Oordon waa a great failure. THE LIFE INSVHAECK SWINDLE. Ue next appear* aa tha manager of the Southern department ot the Southern Life Insurance Com pany. Ue has stated that the departmtnl turned into the home office the sum of $380,000. That money, or a large portion of It, waa taksn from the people of Georgia, and the other portion was taken from people of contiguous Htates. Although he •ays it was the most successful Ilf# insurance busi ness that the country has ever known, the people of Georgia were heavy loaem by it and through hi* reputation and by the confidence they bad In him. he thus secured thee* investments which might have gone Into companies that were solvent, and thus saved the people from this lose.

I beg to read again to you from a speech Governor Smith made before tbe convention whlcb wm assembled In Atlanta. In preoeutiug the name of Major B con to tbat cou veotlon m a candidate for the Democratic Domina tion for Governor, Governor Smith gave him the highest praise, aa you will see by hie speech, which I shall read yon.

Fellow cltiP-ns, that wm tbe endorsement given Major B*coq by Governor Hrnlth three years ago. PICON’* RESIGNATION. A great deal has been said about slander In thla campaign. There le but one charge so far as I aia advUedofa serious nature made against liven; aud that is of resigning from tbe adjutancy of the Ninth Georgia regiment. Fellow citizens, I svy it to-uigbt. It wbathM bean said wt'b reference to that resignation were not absolutely fates and slan derous, 1 w uld not support Major liacun for the Democratic nomination for Governor. But there baa been but statement from him touching this matter. Here i« no touuadiciion lu it, aud I accept that statement as the whole and aba lute truth, cover ing the reasons and the necessity for that resigna tion. Whet* I hear a man make two different state- mout* with reteieuce to his iesl| nation. 1 cannot give bun fourtber credence. Fellow -citizens, tha mau tbat will deceive you et one time, under one set of circumstance*, may deceive you at an other time. [Applause] lr Major Bacon should make two conflicting statements about he same subject matter, would it not be bad polh-y af terwards to believe biiu ? I do not propose for any man to tell me two inherent atoms about the tnendable, public and private. Truth Justifies everything that I have said in bff favor. CLOSING REMARKS. Fellow-citizens, there are other matters I should like to discuss but I have already nxceedsdtbe tlm^ 1 had allotted myself. I thank you for yrur pa tient attention I want to ssv to you that no matter what comes, t us stand together a’xd continue the struggle in which we are now engaged. [Applause ] We may be defeated this year a d next, but uu rro devoted to an effort to destroy tho source and center of all the political »vil* with which our: tats is afflicted. Victory will come lo us at last, and when it doea, let us preserve the per- ishabie odium of tbe Atlanta ring and make its in famy immortal.
