THE D. & A. AGAIN.
“1 am not dead, but sleep¬
ing” could be well .applied to
the D. & A. railroad, and the
promoters, after spending
thousands of dollars on the
grade, went into a comatose
state—took a long nap. But
they have turned over in bed.
groaned a few times, and,
seemingly to the anxious
watchers, are about to wake
up.
A charted a few days ago
to a new company known as
the Dalton & Allendale rail¬
way company, and they have
elected officers, etc., and pro¬
pose to go to work in earnest
in a short while and complete
the task undertaken by the
Dalton & Alaculsy people a
few 1 years ago, and the best
of all is the fact that they have
the money behind the scheme
to complete and equip the
road, and some more. If they
do not mean business, they
will be asked to step down
and out, and another company
is waiting for an opportunity
to get to build the road.
'This will be one of tiie best
paying lines of railroad in the
country, connecting as it will
two large railroad systems,
and at the same time running
through one of the best sec
tions of country in North
Georgia. The line will run
direct through Spring Place,
the county of Murray county,
a id which has more natural
advantages than any other lit¬
tle town in the country.
Let everyone interested in
the welfare of the country do
even thing in his power to get
the road in operation, and old
Murray will not only be one
of tiie best counties in Geor¬
gia, but the very best.
Tmr peach industry has
about gone to the limit, and
our people should look after
something else in the wav of
fruit growing - , and a good idea
would be to look into the rais
ing of strawberries. There
is not a irmt of anj kind that
requires less attention and
inings a better profit than
strawberries, and they have
less attention paid them than
anything else. How many
quarts of strawberries can be
raised on an acre and how
much can you get per quart?
Look into the matter and
plant a few acres this fall.
We have all the railroad facil¬
ities needed and as fine soil as
there is in the world to raise
them, and land that will pro¬
duce corn or cotton will pro¬
duce strawberries, and the
profit derived from an acre of
them will amount to as much
as the profit on several acres
of cotton.
Hon. Hoke Smith prefers
to fight his battles alone, hav¬
ing refused to meet Judge
Russell in joint debate at
Toccoa. He wants trouble
mighty bad until it gets in
sight.
Six hundred thousand ex
Kentuckians have been invited
to participate in “home com¬
ing week,” June 13— r7- If
they all get there, won’t they
make Kentucky bourbon hop?
Uncle Sam has whipped
the paper trust, and it’is to he
hoped that he will never let
up till he puts every other
trust in the country out of
business.
The peach crop is damaged

JOURNAL’S ATTITUDE AND
ABUSIVE TIRADES
Call Forth Rebukes from Macon
Telegraph and Other Demo*
cratic Papers of the
State
(From The Macon Telegraph.)
The Atlanta organ of discord
completed its record of assaults
upon the democratic party in
Georgia. From design and for a
purpose it sums the party up as
“the ring.”
Let us brielly review its record
in this particular.
It has impeached the demo¬
cratic governor.
It has assailed the democratic
state house ofiicers.
It lias attacked the courts cre¬
ated by the democratic party
from the justice court to the su¬
preme court.
It has denounced the democrat¬
ic railroad commission.
It has condemned the Georgia
legislative bodies of “the last
twenty-five years.”
It has impaled upon the petard
of its fervid English the prison
It has employed its space to
the amount of one page at a time
m an attempt to crush the state
commissioner without marking
the article “communicated ° r
“advertisement.”
It has made a bitter attack
At the democratic . . executive .. ,
upon
committee, and luis called upon
“the white people” to assemble I
in mass meetings and applaud
work of party wreckage. i
It has stricken from its voeab
alary the word “democrat” and
employs the word “ring” in its
stead.
On the other hand, it defends
Watson. It has apologized
to him for former offenses against
him, because Tom has said so in
TOE MURRAY NEWS, FRIDAY, MAY 18, 1900
a card printed in its own columns.
It appeals to populists, and not
to democrats, to rally to its sup¬
port in its fight against the dem¬
ocratic organization.
It attacks the right of- the
democratic executive committee
to say ttmt none bur democrats
shall vote in a democratic pri
rnary.
It urges that “all white vot¬
ers” in the state shall vote in a
democratic party primary, assum¬
that, the primary is not a
democratic party primary, or
that it shall no longer bea dem¬
ocratic party primary,
U« course has caused one of its
satellites to exclaim: Show us
an organized democrat and we
will shmv you a hireling.”
That’s the stuff!
Another satellite demands that
republicans shall be permitted
vote in the democratic
Another one urges upon anti
democrats to vote, to take the
pledge, in order to help out The
Journal in its war upon
the democratic party, with a
mental reservation to “vote for
Roosevelt or Watson in 1008 .”
Another one asserts in the
lanta Journal that every
pointee by Governor Terrell “is
as corrupt as b— 1 .”
If tins programme is not a
beautiful mess to set before the
denioerats of Georgia we have
never seen anv compound crook
edness, or political insanity. We
confess we have never seen any
“ wtt do tho.e old democrats,
who fought through the
struetion era and through the
populistic uprising,of “organizetr
democrat” as a term of reproach?
What do they think of the
proposition to abandon the party
lines, by admitting into their
primary republicans and popu¬
lists without their becoming
democrats? What do they think;
of being called “asses” because
they object to this programme of
democratic dissolution?
The Telegraph has .lone as much
lighting against rings as any pa
per in Georgia—-it is always
against corrupt rings but when
“ring” is stretched out to mean
the democratic party, and when
to tight, it one must invoke unre¬
pentant republicans and popu¬
lists, The Telegraph draws the
line, and will be found fighting
on the side of the so-called
“ring.”
The democratic party has been
the friends of the people for
more than a hundred years, in
spite of some of its blunders. It
stands for human rights and in¬
dividual liberty. It stands for
the rights of property honestly
earned. It stands for progress.
It stands for commercial, agri¬
cultural and industrial develop
luent. it stands for equity and
justice between man and man.
It is not agrarian, populistic or
socialistic—and more than all,
not anarchistic. But a party is
a man in the collective form,
and like a man it is a subject to
temptations and assaults from
within and from without. That
subdivision of the democratic
party which has existed in Geor¬
gia for a number of years, is now
going through a period of temp¬
tation and attack. It is that
insidious kind which breaks out
within and attracts the enemies
without.
It is a common thing for ene¬
mies without the camp to attack
when they learn that there are
schisms- and dissension within.
But here is tlie unusual condition
of a half baked rebellion within
where the insurgents are calling
frantically to the enemies with¬
out to come and help them take
the citadel.
It is time for democrats to re
new (q ie j r party faith and party
loyalty, if they do not propose to
surrender._____
