It i3 enbugh that the Democracy of
the Second Congressional district
should know that such men as Albert
Winter, Jas. Massey, Alex Jones and
a few others should espouse the cause
of Mr. Stevens. The fact should doom
his prospects if elected.
That was a deserved honor confer
red upon Capt. W. E. Wooten up in
the Tenth Senatorial district, when he
was nominated unanimously by accla
mation in the District Senatorial con
vention. He is a brave Democrat, and
is one of the bitterest enemies of the

Ttesn? -.can be no straddling fences
CtVnesd times; if you are not with the
i -'Democratic party you have got to say
so or be left. The time has arrived
when one has to “speak right out in a
meetin’ ” and say what he is. It will
not do to imitate the citizen between
the lines in the late war who was
“nuthiu’ much and blamed little er
that,” because a man has got to be a
heap of whatever he is just now. It’s
an absolute necessity, so to speak.—
Waynesboro True Citizen'.
The heart of every true Southern
man thrills when he reads the follow
ing from the pen of that grand illus
trious man, Grover Cleveland: “I do
not wonder that those .adopting these
resolutions speak ot the Force bill as
a horror of Republicanism. Such
doctrines as it embodies are direct at
tacks upon the theory of our govern
ment, and while such a measure espec
ially menaces the welfare and prosper
ity of the South, it must be condemned
and denounced by all those every
where who love their country and
have the least claim to be numbered
among those who believe in the prin
ciples of true Democracy, Very tru
ly yours, Grover Cleveland.” ,
Tammany is in Charge.
We had the pleasure, last Friday, of
hearing that distinguished gentleman,-
Hou. B. E. Russell, speak at the rati
fication meeting in Cuthbert. He is a
straight Democrat. There is no Tbir i
partyism or Oc&laism about him. He
is the man to send to congress. His
Democracy has never been questioned.
—Correspondent Dawson News.
That correspondent’s head is a great
deal more leveler than the one which
edits the paper.
Wooten'and Russel l are two men
to vote for now.
And the Subject Did Not Like to Haro
the Fan Kevealed, But Wanted to
Know Something About the
Future.
The lady who entered the apart
ments of the fortune teller just before
noon bad red hair and an sir of re
serve force that was very striking.
It was evident that the business on
hand was of the deepest moment to her,
inasmuch as her eyes bad a fixed ex
pression, and her thin lips were firmly
set. With majestic mien she strode
into the inner room, seated herself
stiffly and extended her hand to the
clairvoyant.
il “Reveil to me.” she loftily directed,
“my future.”
The fortune teller darted a swift
glance into the face before her and
beat attentively over the outstretched
palm.
“It is very plain,” she quietly ob
served, “you will be married twice.”
The brow-beneath the clustering au
burn curls contracted in a frown.
“Yes,” the clairvoyant continued,
“there is a distinct break in the line of
Hymen. You are destined to bless
two men with your wifely love.”
“1’wo?”
The red-haired lady’s tone was hard
and incisive, suggesting a trace of
skepticism.
“Ah, yes. The first husband will
die und er sad circumstances, bnt you
will be consoled and made happy in
the devotion of the second.”
Ben E. Russell, the silver-tongued
Democrat of the Second District, is in
the race for Congress, backed strongly
by the straighont Democrats of that
District.
Bat Russell is in a District where
third partyism runs rampant, and the
struggle lor Democratic victory must
continue without cessation, until the
last county’s vote is recorded in the
nominating convention.
The Times learned yesterday that
Judge M. L. Mershon, Glynn’s next
representative, and without exception
the most fearless Democrat that ever
expounded Jeffetsonian Democracy in
this District, has volunteered hi3 ser
vices to Russell in this his hour of
need.
Judge Mershon's action; in the mat
ter is characteristic of the mao. His
example should be followed by Demo
cratic speakers all over the State, and
the old Second should be invaded by
such an army of expounders ot true
Democracy that Third partyism would
sink never to rise again, while Russell,
the true and tried exponent ot the old
party, marches triumphantly to take
the seat he so richly deserves.—Bruns-

Camilla, Ga., July 11.—Editor Tel
egraph : You state in your today’s
paper that Candidate Stevens ot the
Second congressional; district claims to
have carried eleven counties and
needs only one more to insure him the
nomination at Albany, August 17.
It seemed as if the ruddy trees which ‘ The district executive committee act-
had escaped from the elaborate coif
fure and (depended witchingly beside
the shell-like ear was trembling, but
it might have been the play of danc
ing sunlight.
“But I will make sure.”
“Do so.”
The red-haired lady’ watched with
unfeigned eagerness while the fortune
teller consalced a horoscope and a
pack of cards. j
As 1 thought. The fates have
spokeD. You will marry twice.”
The red-haired lady breathed hard.
“All have their sorrows,” gently
suggested the clairvoyant.
The red-haired lady bit her finger
nail.
“One dollar, please.”
“Hey ?”
“One dollar.”
“Not by a jugful.”
As the red-haired lady rose from
her seat her manner had not lost a
particle of its majesty.
One dollar, indeed! Well, I guess
not. Do you think I came here to
pay a dollar for a lot of old informa
tion. Two husbands! The idea!
Why, I myself know of more than
that without anybody telling me.
Yes, ma’am. You might be interest
ed to learn that I buried my lourth
husband as long as six weeks ago.
Married twice! Why don’t you try
to tell people something they don’t
know already? You make me
drowsy. You ought to have lived ten.
years ago. You’re away behind the
times.” \ .
The sunlight kept right along danc-.
ing, but the red-haired lady was gone
like a dream that has fled.
“Late to bed and early to rise will
shorten the road to your home in the
skies,” But early to bed and a “Little
Early Riser,” the plU that makes life
longer and better and wiser.
Ben Bnuell’a Record.
We cannot see why the editor of the
Evening News should attack Ben Rus-
seil’s Democracy. Everybody knows
he is and always was a Democrat. The
charges made were so new to us, how
ever, that we have taken the trouble to
inquire into them, and we find the fol
lowing to be a statement that ean be
vouched for by any old citizen of Bain-
bridge who took any interest in poli
tics as long ago as the times referred
to. B. F. Brimberry was' the Repub
lican nominee for Senator and was
elected. Ben Bruton was running as
an Independent, and the Democracy o
Decatur county endorsed Bruton as
against Brimberry, and Ben Russell
supported him, because the Democrats'
of Decatur county.
As to the Constitutional Convention
question, there was nothing political
about that. A few men did make cap
ital by the cry that the Constitution of
1868 was the work of a Republican
convention; but long before 1877 Dem
ocratic Legislators had amended it, so
that it was in 1877 a good Constitution,
and many good 'Democrats thought
then, and are still of the opinion, that
few more amendments would have
iug under authority given by a formdr
convention of the district named the
30th of July for electing delegates in
the counties by primaries and resolved
that no others would bo admitted to
-the convention that were elected on
another date, except those that had
already been chosen from Terrell
county prior to this . action of the dis
trict committee. .
The friends of Candidate Stevens
kicked against this action ot the dis
trict committee and induced the local
committees of four counties which
were claimed by Stevens, to order
mass meetings and primaries on ear
lier dates. In two of the counties
claimed by Stevens the delegates were
elected at .mass meetings called by the
local committees to select gubernato
rial delegates and without any-
previous notice to the Democrats that
congressional delegates would he
chosen. A large number of voters
participating in the mass meeting of
these two counties—Thomas and
Worth—have since connected them
selves with the People’s Party and
in Worth county three of the gentle
men named as delegates to the con
gressional convention have since joined
the People’ Party.
In Randolph, Clay, Early and
Worth counties the loyal and straight
Democrats refused to take part in
the primaries and mass meetings, and
are organized and will hold primary
elections on the 30th inst.. to select
congressional delegates.
The true and loyal Democrats of
the district claim that “Candidate
Stevens,” has carried ouly one county,
Terrell, and that on the 30th inst.,
fourteen counties ot the district, will
select Russell delegates to represent
them in the congressional convention,
and that Hon. Ben E. Russell will
represent them in the next congress.—

Every county under the sun has its
drawbacks as well as its advantages.
But it now seems that our farming
is going to have two other drawbacks
and hardly no advantage.
Tne several large wholesale booses
in Albany employ a number of travel
ing men who traverse thoroughly, tht
territory which draws on Albany as
its storehouse. These men, known as
drummers are necessarily a very intel
ligent clasl oi men, and possess keen
powers of observation. They bear the
same relation to the business world
that an idler does to a large book. 1
is their business to be in touch with
the people and keep themselves weh
informed as to. Che condition of the
country through which they travel,
and they are quick to note the pros
pects of a good crop and see and know
of any threatened danger to the crops.
It is from one of these gentlemen
that the News and'Advertiser learns
something of the prospects row.
“How do you find crops?” asked
the reporter of one who had just re
turned from a trip.
“The corn crop is unusually large
and very fine. It is now fully made
and is considered safe. If the rains
do not cease pretty soon, though, the
fodder will not be sayed and that will
be considerable loss.”
“How about the cotton crop?” said
the reporter.
Well, as you already know, some
sections suffered for -rain for a long
time and the cotton crop cannot pros
per without rain. However the dry
streak was comparatively small and
the cotton grew, off with-its accustom
ed rapidity and a good crop was prom
ised^ The acreage was smaller than
usual, but the yield in prospect was
greater because it was better culti
vated.
“But the bright prospect has been
somewhat dimmed in the' last few
days.”
“flow is that?”
“Why the continuous rains are
causing the ruse to get into the cotton
and there are signs of the appearance
ot King cotton’s worst enemy, the
dread caterpillar. He comes almost
without warning and his destruction
is speedy and sure.
“The weed is just .now In a condi
tion to b9 devastated by the worm and
this wet.weather is liable to briog him
on at once. Many farmers who now
have superb fields of cotton so thickly
leaved that you cannat see the gronnd
would not be surprised any morning
to go out end nothing bnt marked
stalks starring at them ^vhere the day
before was a perfect sea of green
leaves,
“But there is one good thing if thi
worm is to come to do any damage he
must arrive in the next few days or he
will nof be in it, because it will soon
be out of danger and I for one will be
glad if be does come too late.”
“Is there no other ill threatened ?”
“Oh, yes. But it does not amount
to much compared with the others. It
is the grass. It is growing now with
astonishing rapidity and will cause
trouble, but it can be endured if the
other dangers aie escaped.”
These threatened dangers will seri
ously effect the crop, but it is possible
chat they may ‘ be escaped and the
News and Advertiser hopes that
they will be escaped.
