Americus. The court house officials
have seen tit to deny the charge that
they belong t«» a court house “ring.”
Tiik movants in the Augusta and
< liattauooga railway are not idle. The
Public Office a Public ' runt.
The great motto of Grover Cleveland
is: “Public office is a public tru-t.”
And so It is. The Augusta joint de
bate springs the question of what i*
a public trust.
It is a legitima'e field of investi
gation, without beingguilty of “offen
sive partisanship,’* to inquire into the
matter of Bacon’s army resignation
and General Gordon’s Senatorial resig
nation.
What are fh ; conditions of the ca.-e :
Bacon held the office of adjutant of
the hth Georgia Regiment. It was iios
an office subject to the suffrages of the
|M*oplc. He wasjipjioiiited, as ail staff
officers were, by his superior officer.
After going through two campaigns lie
resigned his appointment ii|M>n the ad
vice of his army physicians. His sti
perier officers concurred in the advice
of the physicians,and lie was transfer
red to a field more suited to his physi
cal condition. This was done with the
consent of the Confederate authorities.
The adjutant of a regiment is an im
portant position, hut it is not an office
i- I of public trust.
The office of L' nited States Senator
is not only one of public trust, but ot
the highest trust in our government
except that of the Presidency. The
Senatorial office is not oulv an office of
, high honor conferred, but a high trust
! bestowed by the people of a whole
State, through their chosen delegates
ill Legislature assembled. The people
giving the office and bestowing the
i trust are a party to the contract.

the trust would have been given back
in entirety to those who bestowed it.
All the conditions of the contract
would have been filled, and at. parties

Ex-Gov. Smith now appears before
the Georgia public in a new garb. He
assigns ;is the reason for this change of
base that the verdicr of 1880 adjudicated
the senatorial resignation and that the
voice of tiie |>eople absolved him
from his opiuioiLs ami convh-
lions. However this may be, yet
it is true that Gen. Gordon does
not so regard tfie verdict of 1880. In
Savannah he said to the reporter that
lie wanted to meet the people face to
face and discuss thi- matter ami others;
and in Ainericits where he made the
o|M*uing speech of the campaign lie
introduced at length the resignation
qiiestiou. The fact of his making this
race, after six years abscuce from
Georgia politics, puts the matter In
issue; and his sudden resignation,
coupled with the unexpected appoint
ment of Gov. Brown, makes it a legiti
mate subject - of inquiry and investiga-
ti >11. But this ought to lie done iu a
proper way. Whatever cannot be sus

Chaos Again.
Until 1880 there was complete har
mony in the Democratic party. We
were a united hand of brothers—one in
feeling, one in sentiment, one in poli
cy. We were like the members of one
family whose hopes aud fears and am
bitions were in common. But the
tempter came In 1880. The party was
givn no nominee. Men were preferred
o party unity. During the past five
years, this storm within our own
l>arty, so violent and destructive for a
*hort while, has subsided. It was
unpleasantness men were willing to
bbry. Even the political proscription,
under Democratic ascendency, though
producing some restiveness, had not
disturbed the quiet return to oar form
er conservatism. But all is ch
igain. Hen are on the Up toe of re
volt. War rages again In our own
ranks. The future is lost sight of.
Vnd what is all this furor about?
Simply this: Hen must be honored
•*r vindicated at whatever cost.

The News and Advertiser is au-
•Jiorized to announce that Judge
F. Jones, of this city, will be a candi-
late before the next Democratic con
tention for nomination for Congress.
Judge Jones is a young man who
has long since won a place in the front
rank of the baruf the Albany circuit,
md none who know him will question
bis ability to fill the honorable
position to which he aspires. Hp will
wage no war upon the present worthy
incumbent nor upon either of the
itlier candidates, but proposes, through
his friends and a solid delegation from
Dougherty and perhaps two or three
other counties, to submit his name in
honorable competition with theirs to the
convention.
For the present Judge Jones will
make no campaign appointments, but
he will address the people of the district
upon the issues of tlje day whenever or
wherever the people may want to sam
ple him.
Georgia public opinion is a funny
thing. It vacillates like the waves of
the sea. But the people of Georgia see
the virtues of her public men—though
these same public men wage war on
each other. Georgia honored Gen.
Toombs yet be and Gov. Brown at
times were enemies. Georgia honored
Alex Stephens, yet be hated Ben. Hill

Whatever be the result of this
Gubernatorial campaign, it is evident
Georgia will yet honor A. O. Bacon,
uid will not permit his political de
struction by the combination of a few
men.
The News and Advertiser is glad
to know that the joint discussion be
tween Gordon and Bacon was discon
tinued from last Saturday. This paper
suggested the propriety of a discontin
uance the morning after the Leesburg
meeting, well knowing that the people
would not be in sympathy with a can
vass in which no issue was joined, and
which persolalities were to take
place of argument. We verily believe
that if the joint discussion bad contin
ued two weeks longer, that there would
have been a “spontaneous uprising** of
tiie indignant people to stamp with
condemnation any such a canvass, by
selecting a candidate not now in the
race. The dignity of the State de
manded that the joint discussions be
discontinued, aud we are glad that the
friends of Major Bacon and General
Gordon have not closed their ears to
tiie voice of* disapproval from all over
die State.
Alluding to Coi. J. H. Guerrv*3 an

friends in Early county who share onr

predominating sentiment in favor of
retaining Hon. H. G. Turner as the
Representative of our district, on ac
count of the distinguished work he has
already done for his constituency.*’
One would imagine that the object
of elect!ug a Governor is to get a man
to look after the future welfare of the
State. This seems to be lost sight of.
The fighting seems to be over die ups
aud downs of the Confederacy. If the
Republicans found campaign material
iu the visit of Jeff. Davis, they will
fiud it iu abundance in the utterances
Of our speakers Iu this fight after office.
One would suppose the time had about
come to rally to the front and fight die
Yankees. The old war spirit is sought
to be rekindled. How does tiie Consti
tution reconcile all tills with its cry for
men to represent the new South ?
bitter fight between Gordon and Bacon
has led thoughtful and prudent men to
fear that it would result in harm to the
party, aud it seems that these fears are
about to be realized.
Last night an Enquirer-Sun repor
ter was talking to a gentleman in this
city, and incidentally spoke of the Gu
bernatorial campaigu.
“Well, 1 can tell you ^
about the campaign that will be news
to the people of Georgia.”
“Wbat is it?** eagerly inquired tbe
reporter.
“You needn’t tell anybody that I
told yon so, but it is a fact Dr. Felton
will’make the race for Governor of
Georgia. I have it from what I
aider reliable authority that for
time past he has been quietly fixing
things. A Knight of Labor who ought
to know what he is talking about told
me that recently the principal assem
blies of this order in this State have been
in correspondence with each other,and
that they have about definitely agreed to
support Felton. He is to be the candi
date of the laboring people. This
also says that the colored asa
have agreed to support him. The
Knights says that Gordon is a convict
man, and they will not vote for him.
They . have nothing particularly
against Bacon, nor do they particularly
admire him, and consequently they
have settled upon Felton.**
“Will Felton go before the conven
tion?’*
“Oh, I guess not. Hisgsupportersdo
not contemplate such a course, as they
do not' think they* would have a fair
showing before a convention. This
Knight says that Felton would not
have been a candidate of his own ac
cord, but that the laboring men are
bringing him to tbe front as their
champion. I don’t think there is an;-
doubt that he will be in the race. 1
looks that way now.”
We give the above for what it is
worth, but will add that we think the
gentleman is in a position to know
what he *is talking about, and is not
simply seeking to be tiie author of a
political sensation.
The Bnnnini Account.
Macon Telegraph.
General Gordon is still industriously
laboring to collect something more out
of the State of Georgia for his services,
though she holds a receipt in full
which would be recognized and enforc
ed byany court of equity. He admits
tluitSouth Carolina paid him in a silver
service.
In the absence of any statement to
the contrary, it is to. be presumed that
Florida discharged her indebtedness to
him by tbe grant of lands and privi
leges to build tbe Grand luternatoinal
railway and steamship combination.
Louisiana may be in default of tbe
ransom money for her salvation, or
she may claim as a set-off the General’.-
Senatorial attitude in the celebrate* I
Spofiord-Kellogg case.
But no matter who has defaulted in
payment, Georgia continued to settle
until the Gene nil threw away his com
mission to become the Adviser-General
of a great railroad corporation.
The Democrats of Wilkes county
will assemble in' mass meeting the 1st
day of June. Wonder if the integrity
of her Democratic Executive Commit-
will now be attacked? Is that
Democratic Committee, like all tbe
rest which call mass meetings, a little
comity “ring” attempting to throttle
tiie voice of the people ? On the other
band, is it not simply discharging its
duty ? Why attempt to cast suspicion
on the Executive committees of the
respective counties? They are usually
composed of honest men. Why is all
tlds attack upon the usage of the
party ever since tbe war? What does
it mean? What is to be gained by
bringing it into disrepute? Will we
not need the party after this cam
paign?
The Quitman Free Pres* says:
“There will be a business revolution in
Atlanta on the 30th of Jane, when pro
hibition takes effect. On the 1st of
March there were 203 bar rooms and
beer saloons in that city, and on June
30tb, under the provisions of the law,
all will be required to close. It is said
tliat one or two will refuse to dose,the
proprietors will be arrested,give bond,
and test the legality of tiie law before
the courts.

moderation in this campaign. The At
lanta ring wanted it otherwise, and it
had to be. There seems to be an effort
to overturn the conservatism or the
people and to get a “new deal” all
arooud, even putting new men into
tted for “the new South,”
in accord with “these stir
ring times.” The Nkws and Advek-
tisek hoped for a quiet canvass and no
return ever to the days and doings of
1880. But we can only patiently await
tbe passing of the storm.
PoLmciL storms are" unlike those
brought about by theeontending forces
of nature. Atmospheric storms poriry
the atmosphere and bring healing to
the people. Political storms, confined
to members of one household, produce
disaster, strife, demoralization; they
leave sores which never heai; they
dividefamiliesandfriemls; rend partie*
in twain aud make uo rctnm for the
ruin wrought.
If there is one man in Georgia who
who want his place, we would have at has a supreme contempt for that Yan
kee phrase “The New South,”
which seem* a pet name' with
the papers, it is old Tom Hardeman.
