LET THE MAJORITY RULE.
We are proud of White county's dems
ocraoy. It is true, that io consequence
of the two-third rulo in nominating
.conventions, there is some division, but
we hope this rule will soon be thrown
aside and the majority rulo.unanimously
adopted instead. If 3uch is the case,
Y/hito county will bo almost a unit in
ail the leading political questions of the
day. And not only White county hut
the whole country, will be greatly har¬
monized. Democrats will come to true
democratic principles, and when in the
nominating conventions, the two-third
syst ;tr, which has caused so much di¬
vision its the democratic party is done
away, then the party will be united:
theu, goud men can bo nominated, and
when nominated theu* election will be
a certainty.
When, two years ago, in consequence
of the requirement of two thirds of the
votes of the convention, Hon. H. P. Rell,
it is general!} conceded, was the .choice
of the people ql the Ninth ..Congressional
Distr'mt, was cast aside, and Joel A.
Billups, a man .who the people knew
but little about, and eared less, was
threat upon thorn, and they were re¬
quested to give him their support.
•This was a terrible stroke upon the
confiding people of the district.
Now the people havo the man who,
t vo years ago was their choice, Hon.
If. P. Rcll, before them as a candidate
to repress: ■ them io tho next Congress.
TT he was the choice of the people then,
■ o v an sco no reason why he should not
be vi 'W. Ho is the same man now that
he was then. He war a democrat then,
and he is a democrat npw. He was
honest and upright then, so he is now.
Ho was than a competent man to rep¬
resent the Ninth district in Congress,
so he is now. He has not “gooo bacr ’’
on the people. Why not now make
him year choice? lie would be an
■ on . to the people of bis district, and
we tbit a it would bo wise to cast your
•votes for such a man
Take Norwood an i you won't need
any reform —Mountain Signal.
Is it possible that a man who votes
for the salary grab-steal, and the pay¬
ment of bogus State bonds—the money
r.o come out of the peoples pockets, iu
onk'. that his own pocket may be filled,
and publishes so vile a document as the
“Convict Catechism,”J and strives to
make division in the democratic ranks
Ly nominating himself in the face of
anti in opposition to an overwhelming
majoiky of cue people is so pure, tnat
by taking him wo need no reform.
That won’t do, Bro. Howell. It would
require perfection to need no reform,
and no man is perfect.
Mr. J. T. Waterman, who has for
several years owned and published the
Lagrange Reporter, has sold that paper
to Mr. Win, A Wimbisb, and has pur¬
chased the Athens Banner and, in fu¬
ture, will make his home in the city of
Athens. Mr. Waterman is a successful
newspaper man, a good writer, and a
conscientious gentleman, who will ele¬
vate the standard of journalism wher¬
ever ho moves. Success to the Banner
and to its new owner, say we.
More than two-thirds ,of the votes of
White county will be cast for Alfred H.
.Colquitt on the 6th day of October,
If the people want an able man it
the United States Senate, the? would
j I do lives well to to the elect nex-t for Genera! their Repcesenta- Assembly,
; men who are in favor of Joseph E
j Brown. lie has as much ability, no
doubt, as any man,in the Un ted .States,
and more iutluoaco in Congress thaii
any other man in the .State .can have
under the existing cireumstaoces, and
when in the,Senate,, ha is the light man
in the right place.
It must bo annoying to Gov. Colquitt's
enemies, to see that all .their, abuse and
| slanderous roports only add reverence
to his character and votes to his elec¬
tion. This is as it should be. When a
Christian character is assailed, it .should
be more reverenced, especially in this
particular ease, because Governor Col¬
quitt has been prompted, no doubt, by
the purest motives throughout his
whole administration; wi:h no selfish
object in view, but with an eye to the
welfare of the State of which he is
chief executive.
Alfred H. Colquitt has reduced the'
people’s taxes., and the State’s indebt¬
edness, and has elevated the State's
credit to standard never before reached.
Think of these things and don’t forget
•to vote for him.
Colquitt will be electod by an over
whelming majority. We do not know
of a single county that will give Nor¬
wood a majority. Norwood's own coun¬
ty, it is said will give Colquitt a band
some majority
A private letter from Habersham
county, says that Col. Bell will get a
hotter vote in that county than was
given to Billups two years ago.
The firettf Niejrs from Maine,
It is not ton much to say, says the
Charleston News and Couric, , that the
result of the election in Maine gives an
entirely new aspect to the national can¬
vass. Daring the lust few weeks the
confidence of the Republicans in Gar¬
field’s election has undeniably been
growing stronger, while the Democrats,
on the other hand, showed signs of de¬
pression. This was attributable, we
think mainly to the wondorful ability,
ingenuity aud vigor—not to say vouom
—which the Republican press of the
North has brought to bear in behalf of
cause which had little else to recom¬
mend it. The Democracy havo bad
arrayed against them in the fight fully
four-fifths of the brains and energy
which are enlisted iu the work of par¬
tisan journalism. It would be difficult
to overestimate the advantage of so
overwhelming a preponderance of jour¬
nalistic artillery in a political battle.
Its effect could be seen even in the col¬
umns of the .so-called “independom,”
press, which at first showed a strong
leaning to Hancock, but has latterly
given him the cold shoulder, volunteer¬
ing in the most dispassionate and dis¬
interested manner to demonstrate the
slimness qf his ch-nce.
But Maine will open tfie eyes of stal¬
warts and .independents alike to the
fact that there is a controlling element
of the American people ,who are going
to do their own thinking in this cam¬
paign, and whose votes are not t.lie pro¬
perly of any party ‘-machine.'’ It is
this element that has dealt the Rapub
l.cans so staggering a blo.w in Maine;
and it is this element that is going to
elect Hancock by a majority that will
astonish the politicians,pf both parties.
The Republicans were beaten in Maine
after a canvass in which, under the
personal direction of their ablest and
most popular leader, they had exhaus¬
ted every effort to win. The money
wrung from reluctant office holders
throughout the country and was poured Blain out
there without stint, Senator As
canvass of the State that has made him
her favoiite son has had no parallel in
warmth, brilliancy.andjdesperationtsiuce
the famous .canvass of Henry 4 ., Wise,
which killed Know-Ncithingism in yir
ginia, Blaine knew, as everybody knew,
that the Republicans .could ,not afford
to lose Maine; and so herculean were
thoir exertions to save it that the Dem¬
ocrats throughout the Union had given
up the State as lost to them. That
Maine, under such circumstances, has
so completely revolted agamst stalwart
rulo is an event of extraordinary sig¬
nificance.
The moral effect of this stunning de¬
feat of the Republicans will be tremen¬
dous. A dozen Northern Sfates, hith¬
erto regarded as safe for Garfield, at
ouce become doubtful. New York,
Indiana, Connejiicut and New Jersey
must now be counted for Hancock
beyond peradveuture, and he has an
even chance, to say the least, of carry¬
ing Ohio and Rennsylvania. The Re¬
publicans ,may as well cease barpffig
upon the “sofid South, v If Maine be
a fair index, they are likely to hear
their political doom from a “Solid
Union:’’

Chicago Times.
The success of the fusion ticket iu
Maine, whieb is reported in the db
patchesihis morning, »H not,only be a
profound astonishment to the who’e
coun.ry, but will go a long way toward
settling the Presidential contest in ad¬
vance. Republic Scarcely a hope of defeat'll g
the ms iu Maine had been en,
tertained. A litrle mild Democratic
‘'blowing'' fi r effec, had been done,
perhaps, but the tusioDists in Maine ai d
t e members of Lite Democratic Nation
al Committee had iu their hearts really
given up tho Sta’e. The fact that the
hiavy Greenback vote of 1871) came
lirgely from t io Republican ranks, aud
that tbo excitement of a Presidential
campaign, coupled with the decline of
greenback sm all over the country,
would naturally tend to drive these
Greenbackecs hack to the .Repub iean
party, was held to render tbe election
of the Republican Governor almost
certain. The Republic ms, too, had
conducted a much more active cam
paign than the Fusionists, Many able
speakers aud a big pile of money were
sent into the.State by the Republican
National Committee, while ,the iRemo.
cractic managers sent little, either qf
oratorical talent or money. The fact
th at ,i n ,t b e fiico of these ad ve i an i u fi u -
enees theRepuhlicans have been beaten
will give an lmmenso impetus to the
Democratic com paign all over tbo coun¬
try. Its influence will be felt especially
iu Indiana, where the scale is almost
evenly balanced, aud where it needs
nothing more than this victory in Maine
to turn the balance sharply in favor of
the Democrats. It will give ttie can¬
vass for .Hancock everywhere new life!
and vigor, for it is plain that the sue- ,
cess o,f the opposition in Maine is due
moi;o to the strength of the'Democratic
national ticket than to any increasing
popularity of greenback ideas.

present outlook; in what manner and
to what extent they will bo affected by
the action of Hie Democratic conven¬
tion, which meets bore tosmonw in
adjourned session for the purpose of
nominating candidates for the legisla¬
ture, it is difficult to say. It is thypght
by some that the convention’s action
will materially mix things, its members
having already spent one day (last
Tuesday^ iu an effort to nominate and
no result having been reached. But,
let come what will, the friends of Gov¬
ernor Colquitt are determined to do
their whole duty wheu the proper time
arrives.

Dodge county, states that the vote of

An old farmer said yesterday; “The
Lord is onLolquitts side. Jf he makes
a little mistake that might hurt him,
the Norwood men abuse him bo unrea¬
sonably that a reaction ,is made in hjs
favor. ”
Mr. Goodloe JI. Yancy writes from
Athens that Clarke will give Colquitt a
good majority, possibly as much as 500.
Others write in the same spirit from
the classic city.
The Constitution says there are not
fifty Norwood men in Fulton county
outside of Atlanta and the county polls
1,500 votes or more. Yet there are
men who claim Fulton for Norwood 1 !
