ently refuses to 3how his hand.
The Atlanta Journal apologizes for

Tme News and Advertiser is criti
cised by the supporters of Mr. Stevens
because it is fighting lor straight and
pure Democracy. Do you catch on ?
Dummy Stevens, the pantomime
candidate for Congress, should pur
chase a bathing suit. He will need it
to swim home in when the Democratic
tide comes in.
Political machinery never im
proves the condition of the laboring
classes. This fact is beyond question,
yet you will fiad them blindly follow
ing after the political demogogues.
Candidate Stevens seems very
anxious for two nominating conven-
tlohs. The truth is he wants some
loop hole that be will use for authority
to go before the people in any event.
An Alliance orator in western Kan
sas recently electrified his audience by
the following statement: “There
are In this great country sixteen mil
lion cows, ladies and gentlemen.”
Should Dummy Stevens, the panto
mime candidate, ever get to Congress,
he would never be able to gain the at
tention of the speaker by making signs,
lor Tom . Watson will not be in the
chair.

the Savannah Morning Hews says that

Democrat and—the more the merrier.
Bailiff Rainey of Dawson, sum
moned “Editoi Turner” to “come to
the stand.” He went without hesitation
answering the questions propounded
to him unequivocally and emphatically.
But Bailiff Rainey of Dawson scrupu
lously avoids putting Candidate
Stevens on the stand.
WHO ARE THE KICKERS?
The political gyrations of Candidate
Stevens, of Dummy fame, are about
as amusing a3 any pantomime per
formance could be.
From the time that the Executive
Committee of this district met and
put the party machinery in motion
Mr. Stevens and his lollowers have
been dissatisfied with that action and
it is a notorious fact that the only
kick, the only objection and the only
dissatisfaction displayed in any part of
the district has emanated from this
crowd alone.
Bat why do Mr. Stcven3 & Co.,
object to the action of the Executive
Committee?
Plainly and clearly there is bat one
reason and that is as follows: Mr.
Stevens was nominated for congress
by a number of Alllancemen who met
at Cnthbert on February 25tb, He
was assured of the perfect organiza
tion of this order in every county in
the district and his object was that by
rushing the action of the various coun
ties he could get the instructions of
enough counties in very short order to
give him the nomination.
Bat the Executive Committee wish
ed to give all parties a fair showing
and called on the various counties to
hold primaries on the 30th of July.
This was asked simply that the candi
dates would be given time to present
their claims to the people and allow
them to make an impartial choice.
But this did not soft Mr. Stevens
and his followers and ever since that
action they have been ingenuously
devising plans by which they may
stick the abortive knife to the party
ruling and carry matters political in
their own arbitrary manner.
Never has any dissatisfaction arisen
from any quarter except from them
and yet the Executive Committee is
abused a9 having applied gag law and
bos8ism in this campaign.
We would like for Mr. Stevens and
his followers to explain to the public
who have been the kickers in this
campaign and we would like for Mr
Stevens to answer if he was not the,
first person to ever suggest that there
will be two nominating conventions
In this district. We would also like
for him to assign his reasons for think
ing that two nominating conventions
will meet and that If he formed such
opinion'from any bolt made by any
one but his own supporters.
Mr. Stevens has all the while been
ac the head of the bolters and kickers
In this campaign.
Mb. Stetbns makes a beautiful pan
tomime candidate.
Griffin seems to offer no reslstence
whatever to the attacks made on it by
the soldiers.
Stevens will find himself complete*
ly snowed under by an avalanche of
Democratic votes when the election
takes place.
The Democratic party was able to
defeat the force bill, and it is going to
defeat all such men as'Winn, Watson,
Stevens and others.
■ The reason Dummy Stevens was
.dissatisfied with tho action of the Exe
cutive committe; was that he knew he
and his candidacy could not stand the
light of a political campaign. And
that Is jnst the reason he wanted to
use bis gag law and snap judgment on
the people.
Instead of fighting a good Democrat
like Capt. R. Hobbs, Winter, ol
Thomasville, should do the party he
says he belongs to some good by fight
ing the Third party which is now
boldly organizing since the cut and
dried Stevens mass meeting has got in
its work.
Because a few Hill men succeeded
in being chosen as delegates to Chicago
the Hill organs are crowing and con
tending that the anti-Cleveland forces
carried the day. They flinnt such
brags in the face of the fact that the
Cleveland men bad full control of the
convention and absolutely withdrew
* their objections to the Hill men nomi
nated from a few districts. Had they
known that their magnamity and gen
erosity would have been abused In
this manner we dare say the conven
tion would have sent an instructed
Cleveland delegation and would have
passed the unit rule.
The advocates of Candidate Stevens
have a great way of asking the oppo
nents . of their candidate if they re
garded Mr. Stevens a Democrat when
he represented his county in tho legis
lature and when he served as a mem
ber of the State Democratic Commit
tee from this district. It may be said
in reply that Tom Watson was a
Democrat when he represented his
county In the legislature and when be
ran as presidential elector. But Tom
Watson is not a Democratic now and
Candidate Stevens threatened to pit
- hlmag&iast Col. Wooten because the
latter . preached < strong Democratic
doctrine.
The Atlanta Constitution comes to
the front with the following witticism
on the political affairs in this^dlstrict:
A queer case of spontaneous com
bustion occurred In the editorial room
of the Valdosta Times a few days
since. The exchanges, after careful
persu&l. had flattered one by one, Into
the waste basket, when suddenly the
table was wrapped in fiimcs. Wheu
the editor had recovered from the
shock, an I from the exertion of toss
ing the basket with its burning con
tents into the street below, he sat
down to wonder now it happened
There had not been a spark of lire in
tho office, except what smouldered at
the end of a Havana. It was a clear
case of spontaneous combustion. The
relations between some ot the brethren
have become a little drained. The
editor had dumped the exchanges of
the Second district into the basket to
gether and the result was a contlagra-
tUn.
The Democrats of this district are

blnff and bluster will cause then) (o

Albany’s soldier boys are reveling
In the delights of camp life in Griffin

tiser hopes they are just as Dear a

What right have McIntyre, Massey
& Co., of Thomas county to demand
that a man shall not be a candidate for
any office, and that a man of their
own selection shall fill the position?
How Is that for dictation? Will
Watermelon Winter tell us something
about that?
Stevens seems to be arranging his
plans to have a little convention of his
own. We always thought there was
very little Democracy about him. He
is afraid to meet the true and tried
Democrats on the final call. If we
had no more Democracy than he has
we would be afraid to meet the gen
uine Democrats.
Editor McCook, of Brunswick, the
city by the sea, is in the swim. His
espousal or the cause of Hon. H. G.
Turner, the true and tried exponent of
Democracy, has made him many
friends not only In Brunswick and
Glynn county but throughout the
state. Long may he live to fight for
true Democracy.
Those who refer to the action of the
Executive committee orthis district as
the bossi8m of Hobbs & Co., are sup
porters of Mr. Stevens, and are the
only ones who have ever manifested
any dissatisfaction with the party rul
ing. Their candidate is now the only
one who is clamoring for two conven
tions and threatening a bolt.
J. B. Gordan sub-alliance of Thomas
county, has boldly gone into the Third
party ranks. Editor Winter held
them down until after his famous
mass meeting. The people of this dis
trict will no doubt see the whole thing
step Into the Third party as soon as
Mr. Stevens gets all oat of them that
be cm.
COYENTION CHIT CHAT,
The State Democratic convention
held in Atlanta last Wednesday, was
not a prayer meeting. In making
this statement I betray no eoLlidence
whatever.
The convention developed one thing
in its organization, and that was that
it was a fight between the Constitution
and the Journal. The Journal won,
but it appears to me that a contest was
not necessary on such an occasion.
One of the first men I met in At
lanta was Hon. It. N. Trammell. I told
him that work had been begun on
the union depot here, and he smiled in
a ' manner that would lead one to be-
live that he has a personal interest in
this work.
By the way. his son, Hon. Paul B.
Trammell, who has been clerk, repre
sentative, senator, and every thing
almost, pertaining to Georgia politics,
is a candidate for the House, and for
the ’ Speakership. He was speaker
protematthe last session, and when
he goes back ibis time I think he
will preside over the deliberations cf
the lower House.
The office-seeker was on hand in
fall bloom at the State Convention.
There were enough candidates for At
torney General to supply the State for
many years to come. Hon. Joe Ter
rell, of Meriwether, seems to be in
the lead with Hon. W. C. Glenn,
pushing him, for the honor. Our
own J. H. Gaerry u *3 there working
for the same posiifoit, and the'final
fight will be deteroiiii*nI when the
State Conventiin meets in August.
Every office hunter in the State—
except C. B. Wooten—was there, and
the Solicitor General seeker was there
in all his glory. I will make one other
exception here, and that is lion. J^hu
D. Pope. Like Mr. Wooten, he w«s
not there, and rests his case on its
merits.
But every person,! met a3ked me
about C. B. Wpoten’s chances for
congress. Many men who are
strangers to me, stopped me and asked
about him, and I never in my life
saw so much interest displayed by
strangers in any man’s candidacy.
All the enthusiasm was displayed in
the interest of a straight Democratic
candidate.
Hon. Warner Hill, of Meriwether,
was one of the most conspicuous
Agues at the convention. He Is a cau
date for congress from the Fourth dis
trict against Mr. Moses, the present
incumbent. He Is a grandson of the
late Hon. Hiram Warner,: and pos
sesses much of his crandiatbei’.
ability. The Fourth could find no
better standard bearer than lion.
Warner Hill.
Col. Dan W. Rjundtree was on
hand, and was frequency consulted
by the vast throng' in the Kimball
Arcade.
He had just returned from New
York City, snd his came was on
every tongue account of his recent
conhecttion wilh tho ' Central
railroad receivership. He ha*
sprung Into such prominence from
his connection with this ca e that his
name will be immortal. I heard
one of the unsoj li Plicated delegates
from this section ask him ILMr. Gould
bad sought to mike terms with him
on bis receivership fight during his
recent trip to New York.
I bad the pleasure of seeing Steve
Ryan, while in Atlanta. - And I did
not have to be incarcerated in jail to
enjoy this honor. When I saw this
famous person he was walking along
Whitehall street in the most uncon
cerned manner. He had been before
the auditor, who is now heatiug bis
case, a bailiff was near and his lawyer
was in front. Mr. Ryan was fault
lessly dressed- and seemed to be a king
among his fellows. If he is never re
leased he will enj »y the notoriety of
being the best advertised man in Geor
gia—next to Tolleson.
T. N. R.
Candidate A i ginson of the Elev
enth evidently wishes that be had a
little Lamb.
Frost is reported at Fort Valley
but no serious damage Is said to have
resulted. The fruit crop is said to be
safe.
It Is to be hoped that tke recent
cold spell nipped nothing in the bud
save the ambitious young legislative
statesman.
In ii recent editorial in the Thomas-
rilJe News, supposed to have been
written by Prof. Winter, the assertion
is made that the Alliance has a ma
jority of the voters of this district. In
a private conversation a few days ago
Winter made the assertion that the
Alliance .was in the minority. Now
which statement Is true?
McIntyre, Massey & Winter are
hereby notified that when thelfemc-
crats of the Second district want them
to select a delegate to a National con
vention they will be specially notified.
They are three fine one3 to attempt to
arrange things for a district composed
of Democrats. This is a little sample
of “bosslsm” that yon have heard
Prof. Winter howling about so much.
The Democrats of Thomas County
allowed themselves to be led Into a
neatly laid trap on the 12 ;h. They
made some concessions in good faith
and soon afterward learned to
their sorrow that the bosses has ar
ranged a little gag law to work on the
meeting. But after all the boss has
evidently found out that the people
of the Second district doe3 not want
him to represent them in the Chicigo
convention.
McIntyre, Massey & Whiter
thought they would dictate
to the people of this district as
to who should go as a delegate to
the Chicago convention. AS bosses
they are successful failures. The
people of the district are not yet ready
to give up Hon. John Triplett and let
the crowd run things. The district is
fall of Democrats, hence the services
of the above named £firm are not
needed.
Dictators McIntyre and Massey,
ot Thomas county, met their first
crushing defeat when the people of
this district refused to lay aside John
Triplett and take McIntyre. The
machine ran well enongh in a packed
convention, but when the people get
hold of the machine made candidate
for delegate from this district they
promptly sat down on him and elected
ihe man who had so long and faith-
sally borne the standard of Democracy
from this district to the National con
vention. That crowd of dictators are
manipulating Mr. Stevens* campaign
for him, perhsps because he cannot
run it himself because if he could he
would not entrust it in the hands of
such a crowd.
A little Third party advocate will
insert bis head in an empty barrel, the
barrel of course as empty as his head
will yell for his side with all his might
and imagine that every man in the
county is echoing his yells.
People who are prudent and wil
ling to work always find a way to pros
per. The secret of success is in en
deavoring to make the most of oppor
tunities, and unless there is a willing
ness to work opportunities never come.
—Elkhart Truth.
Fads are pcpnlar simply beca lse the
weakuess ot humanity adopts them.
Dummy Stevens, the candidate for
Congress, seems to have fallen into
the popular method, and his fad is
silence, especially when asked to
make his declarations for Democracy.
It is well to remember just here that
Candidate Stevens, the Dummy states
man, is the only man who has ever
threatened a bolt in the nominating
convention. He has sought to impress
the people with the idea that there
will be two conventions.
In trying to suppress such a good
Democrat as Capt. John Triplett, the
non de scripts of Thomas county found
their c ffjrts recoiling in heavy blows.
We are very glad that we had a hand
in the vindication of such a good and
true man as John Triplett.
Three negroes were killed at the
new waterworks station near Atlanta
last Sunday as the result of too much
bag j nice and a woman was arrested
for rnnning a blind tiger. Atlanta
seems to be confronted with the seri
ous question of stopping the dispen
sing of the ardent on Snnday.
Candidate Stevens’ articles and In
terviews in the Atlanta Constitution
have never had any effect but to mis
represent the true condition of the po
litical aspect in this district. His as
sertion that two nominating conven
tions in this district aie threatened
seems to argne nothing bat his desire
for that very condition of aff<irs.
We caunot see why it is that any
reasonable man can so far forget him
self as to go off with a crowd of politi
cal scalawags and try to form a Third
party. For a quarter of a century the
Democratic party has been presenting
solid and unbroken front to the
enemy and have worked faithfully to
obtain relief for the people, but their
efforts have beet* fruitless. Ir they
have failed to accomplish anything
how Is it reasonable to suppose a party
composed of members of the Demo
cratic party, necessarily smaller than
the original party, caa accomplish
any good -for the people? You may
rest assurred of one thing and that is
no Republicans are going to join the
new party. They are going to fight
the Democrats solidly and every
Democrat should stand to his guns.

Capt. K. Hobbs for congress.
That Is the latest suggestion in the
political field.
There is no denying the fact that
the political pot is boiling and with
Stevens, Wooten, Russell, Hand and
Hammond all, seeking the political
plum, or if not actively seeking it
prominently suggested for the posi
tion, the friends of Capt. Hobbs are
emboldened to make an effort in his
behalf.
Yesterday a number of Capt, Hobbs*
friends happened to meet accidentally
on the street corner and the subject
turning on political matters one of the
talkers at once suggested Capt. Hobbs
for the position aud spoke encour
agingly of his candidacy. One of
them said:
“I am for Wootea and it would be
a hard matter for me to decide between
the two but if I have any second
choice in the matter it is Hobbs.”
Another gentleman said '*1 have
been a warm supporter of Wooten all
through this canvass and am now but
there is one thing that impresses me in
the suggestion of Capt. Hobbs’ name
and that is it he is nominated and elect
ed it will be a complete vindiation oi
him :i3 Dictator of this district a*s he i*
facetiously referred to by the support
ers of Mr. Steven3. I am a strong
admirer of Capt. Hobbs and he has
always been a true bine Democrat.
Besides he Is a shrewd business man,
an able lawyer, a man of sound judg
ment and possesses many elements ol
Statesmanship. 1 am frank to confess
that he would make an able represent
ative in congress. I would go my
last length to see him elected if he Is
nominated.”
Another member of the crowd said
“I would not be unfavorable to the
candidacy of Cupt. Hobbs for congress
but he Is a 6trong supporter of Col.
Wcoten himself aud I don’t think he
could well afford to come out just
now. But he Is a Democrat and his
empty sleeve bears testimony to tifs
fact. I have nothing whatever to sty
against him.”
These gentlemen decided that they
would confer with Ca^ t. Hobbs at d
ask him how he felt about announcing
himself a cinlidate. Whether they
raw him is not known but a reportei
of the News and Advertiser sought
to have an interview with him on the
subj *ct and tailing to fi id him gives

friends who aie urging him as a can

A Prominent Citls n .1 Blakely
Tell, of tltc Political Completion in
Ui« Comity.
Yesterday mon ing a reporter of the
News and Advertiser cnc»untb*rec
Col. W. A. Jordan of Blakely, one oi
the most prominent lawyers of that
place and agent for the Central rail
road.
Col. Jordan is fully alive to all local
matters in his section and always
keeps posted. In speaking of the po
litical outlook in nlscjuuty he said
“fhe Executive Committee of out
county called a primary 10 elect dele
gates to the congressional convention
on July 2nd bat there is great dissatis
faction in that call. The main cause
ol dissatisfaction is that there are five
outspoken Tld d party men on the
committee. This 1 know myself to be
true and a large number of citizen-
are not satisfi-d to • nave Third partj
men act lor them in calling a Demo
cratic primary.
“In view ol these facts ti.e straight-
out Democrats tf E triy a*e going for
ward and hold a pr.maiy on July
30th to select delegates to the con
gressional convention and none but
Democrats will be allowed to partici
pate in this primary. We feel that
we must make the fight on straight
Democratic lines and that is wbat we
intend to do.”
Col. Jordan in making the above
remarks never once mentioned the
name of any candidate who is now In
the field or before the peopl* and
there was not the slightest suggestion
of “gag law” in his remarks. He
spoke simply lor Democracy, pure and.
simple, and no one could misconstrue
his remarks as leaning in favor of any
one candidate.
WHY SHOULD THEY KICK?
From th e VaMos’a Times
The Third party ites in the Second
district are making a great noise be
cause the <x cutive committee of the
district has said if they go into the
primary they must abide the primary.
And because the executive committee
of Berrien county has said the tame
thing, a few fellows in that county ate
piwiog up the earth.
We want to know what Third party
people hava got to do with Democratic
affairs anyhow?
Why should these fellows who fol
low Lease, and Mmpson and Dennis
Kearney, instead of Cleveland, Mills
and Turner, otj cl to Democratic
party usages?

The Madisoi ian published at Madi

Rosa Stovall of that city was quite ill.
Miss S ovail has many friends in
Albany where she ha» frequently vis
ited and her illness having been hrard
ofin tins'ticy her many friends and
admirers here naturally felt some so

It is with great pleasure that the
News and Advertiser announces
this morning that a ctrd received yes
terday by one of Miss Stovall’s friends
in the city gives the information that
she is not only very much better bat
rapidly recovering. This information
is given to pnt at rest some rumors
that have gained credence.
the Cleveland Tie*.
The Indianapolis News editorially
says: “The anti-Hill movement, as it
is called in N«.w Ycrk—we should say
a better name were the pro-party
movement—has by actual count en
rolled in New York City the names of
73.000 voters, which, the dispatch says,
is four hundred more than a majority
of the votes cast by Govirtior Flower
last November. And this has no ref
erence to Ward McCalHster’s “four
hundred”—which indeed has become
the “150.” It is ixpected that ten
thousand Democrats wi 1 be present at
the aLti-Uill convention, so-cflJod.
Beyond question, this movement can
not be snetred at nor whistled down
the wind. It looks as it Mr. Hill’s
exceeding gall, with his February
‘•snap**, convention is-becoming the
main instrument of his undoing.. It
has shown that not he,' but Cleveland
is the real choice of the Democrats of
New York. More, it will go far,
doubtless, in moral i ffect.to toward
chow ing the laUity of the only real
substance in the opposition lo Cleve

“There used to be cats in North
America lt‘0,000 years ago.” said a
paleontologist to a writer for the Star.
•Great carniverons creatures of the fe-
!ne tribe roamed over this country
then in enormous numbers. They are
uot all extinct, and have left only their
bones behind to tell the story of how
they lived and what they ftd upon
One often reads of the art by which
the naturalist Is able to restore the
skeleton of an animal from a single
bane, and in fact a good many mistakes
have been made through over-con-
fi Jence on the part of learned gentle
men In re-constructing fossils by the
ory from insufficient material. But
there is no possibility of mistaking the
testimony afforded by the teeth. They
tell all about the mffonef of existence
led by their former owners, givirg ac
curately the habits, diet and approxi
mate age of the beast.
‘Thus it is very fortunate that teeth
last longer thao any other objects in
niture. At this day are found in a
perfect state of preservation the molais
aud incisors which were used to chew
with by the mighty reptiles of millions
of years a^o. It is from his dentition
that science declares Itran to be carni-
verous only by habit and not by na
ture. I spoke of that the other day
to a young man in search of informa
tion, who replied politely: *‘Si is a
h?u” When I asked him what he
meant b7 that he said that the denti
tion ot a hen wo >ld certainly not indi
cate that i: was not carnivercus by na
ture, and yet it evidently wa3 so jndg-
from its addiction to worms and
preference for flesh In general. How
