V 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.

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- A THREATENED DANGER. wick Times.

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.— Maeon Telegraph. The; Jacksonville Times-Union of the 9th, in its special from Madison, Fla., has a very complimentary notice of Miss Lula Walker, a . charming young lady of Atlanta. The Madison Ametuer Dramatic Association pre sented in that city the beautiful Drama, French Frau Frou for the benefit of the Presbyterian church of that city.

LOST. Last Tuesday morning, a large cream colored Texas horse: black mane and tail; branded on hip “E L C.” A suitable reward will be paid for the delivery of same to Frank Gatewood, or Cruger & Pace, A.bany, Ga. 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.
