10 THE MACON WEEKLY TELEGRAPH. TUESDAY, JULY 13, 1886.-TWELVE PAGES. THE INSIDE OF ATLANTA.. CALLS FOB ANOTHER GUBERNA- TOKIAL CANDIDATE. AStrflne Feeling Against Gordon In Many Sections of the State—People Openly Aseert that they Will Not Vote for film. Atlanta, July 7.—An Intelligent and reliable gentleman, well known In Middle and North Geor gia, who has Just returned from a business trip through a large number of counties in the northern and southern portions of the State, expressed *o me his surprise at the strong feeling against Go- don he found among the people. Large numbers of them openly assert that they cannot and will not ▼ote for General Gordon if he is nominated by the convention. There Is a strong demand among them for a good, staunch Democratic candidate for whom they can conscientiously vote, whether such a candidate can beat Oordou or not. The gen tleman I have referred to simply gave these as facts which came nnder his personal observation, but would express no opinion and said frankly he could give no opinion, as to what would be the out come of this sentiment. THE MASS MBrriXO IN BARTOW. A mass meeting was held in Csrtersville Unlay to ala :t delegates to the gubernatorial convention The proceedings of the meeting were spirited, and indicated conclusively that there la some life yet In the campaign. The warm interest taken in the contest by the Democrats of Bartow waa shown by the presence of nearly nine hundred voters. Both candidates were strongly repre sented and warmly supported. The first tug of war came In the election of a chairman. In this Issue the Bacon side were victorious, electing their man by a majority of 40. This was something of a settler, and produced Immediate developments. Then came from the Gordon element a resolution pledging the voters in mass meeting assembled to support the nominee of the convention, whoever he might be. This resolution, which was a rath*! Irregi lar and unprecedented one, wai promptly voted down. The Gordon men, finding themselves, though Urge in number, a hopeless minority.proceeded to another place, organized a lit tle convention of their own, and elected delegates to the convention, and they will demand to be seated as the only ellgable and qualified represeta- tion from Bartow. In the meantime, the reg ularly assembled mass meeting pro ceeded to business and elected delegates. As this set of delegates was the outcome of the mass meeting called by the Democratic executive committee of the county, representing the will of ihs majority and bearing the regular official cre dentials. It U not apprehended seriously that the convention of the Sflth of July Hill Interpose any objection to their taking their seats in that body, although there Is here much talk that som«thing of that kind will be done. A number of Gordon men, speaking of it this afternoon, expressed the opinion that the Gordon set of delegates would be and ought to be recognized by the convention. They pretend to the belief that tbs developments of the meeting in Bartow to-day—the control of the meeting by a majority of the voters present. Is ths beginning of an Independent movement to defeat Gen. Gordon. HOW TtlET VOTED IN CXI LET I lull IK. Ex-Senator James M. Smith, of Oglethorpe, was In the city this afternoon. To look at him and talk with him one would not imagine that he was on the losing side In a political contest yesterday. What ever there waa of defeat to him in ths Oglethorpe election yesterday, he bore It good-naturedly and philosophically. Of the result he had noth ng new to say, but gave a description of ths voting for Rees* or Carlton delega es to the Congressional convention. It was almost Impossi bis to tell in the ordinary way how tLs crowd stood on this Issue. It was proposed first that that ell in favor of Carlton should string out on one side the street and all in favor of Iters# get In a line on tbs other. Tbs crowd disposed themselves as di rected, bat U was soon found that tie plan would not work Ufactorily. Then there waa more confusion and excitement. It was next proposed that ths crowd should fils one by one through a door into a rood where the tellers would receive the votss. This was tried, but failed to give satisfaction, and finally tho two wings asperated and held separate meetings both sides electing delegates to ths convention' If this condition of things remains, it wlllgivg convention v*Uw WWW work, immediate appeal to the city council for a ruling the 1st that will bring this tMng to a stop. The developments to-day showed that beyond a doubt. Although ft is a dry town, Atlanta is a beer drinking community, and the people will have it whenever there is an opportunity to get it. raOHIBITIONIRT DESERTS HIM COLORS. Charley C. Thorn, a young grocery merchant do ing business on Whitehall sheet, occupies rather a peculiar position in connection with the subject of prohibition In Atlanta, which is now attracting so much attention, both home and abroad. During the campaign he was an ardent and untir ing worker in the canse of prohibition. lie waa a member of the Young Men's Prohibition Club, and on account of the Interest that he manifested In the cause, waa assigned to duty on the sub-committee i registration. On the day of the election, be was the polls putting in vigorous licks for the success of the dry ticket, and no doubt did a good deal of telling work. It was known to a good many of his friends at the time that he had a wholesale license to liquor by the quart, and when it was found that he had enlisted his energies in the cause of prohlbl. tion the club congratulated itself upon making a convert of him. Since the election, however, contrary to the ex pectations of his friends, Mr. Thorn has continued in the liquor business, (tolling ell kinds of liquoi by the quart. The fact that he was a strong prohibitionist dar ing the campaign, taken in connection with the fact that he has never given up the liquor business, tuwM him to he the subjoct of much criticism. Mr. Thorn's license runs until September 33rd, of this year. At the time of the election his license extended for a period of ten months. AND STILL ANOTHER. T. 0. Mason Is another citizen of Atlonta who is just si this time coming in for his share of criti cism in connection with prohibition. He owns a wholesale license to sell all kinds of liqnor, which is good to run until near the end of the year—Oc tober, I believe. Since July 1st he has fitted up a saloon under his grocery on Marietta street whtre he sells beer, whisky and wine by the quart, and is said to be doing a handsome business. During the campaign Mason, while be took no promlneut part in the contest, waa n gardod as a prohibition ist. This opinion of him wssfotmed from the con versation that he had with his friend• upon the subject. lie told them in substance when the matter waa talked of, that he Intended selling li quor until It was voted out, anil that then he was going out of the business with tho rest of them. What liquor remained on hand unsold on the 1st of July, he was going to pour Into the streets. Mr. Mason also stated that his license ran lor several months, and that he conld sell until Its expiration, but that he had no desire to continue in the busi ness after it was prohibited by law. To one gentleman who celled and made him ai offer of $300 for his license. Mr. Mason said t‘iat he had been offered f 3.500 for it, but would not sell It at auy price. Ho sa d, in effect, that to sell his license would not be consistent with his feelings upon the question or his standing in the community. Public opinion advances two theories as to the stand that Mr. Thorn and Mr. Msson took with ief- erance to prohibition. The most charitable of the two is inconsistency; the other, the money, that was to be made by them when less fortunate dealers were obliged to close out and retire from the buslnesa. MOKE TRANSFERS OF LKJtOR LICENSES will be made to-morrow. Thorn's license, which expires September 33d, will. In whole or In part, pass Into the hands of Kenny k Wtpuer. Schu- men's license, expiring about the same time, goes to Tat Kenny, and T. C. Mason’s license, expiring October 37th, has been captured by Phillip Breiten- bncher. All .arrangements tor the transfer of these licenses have been made, and ths old saloons closed on the 1st of July will bloom again to-morrow, SAVANNAH’S LATEST SKNSATION. William T.
