It has been proposed by several of the leading Democrats of the county that We have a grand rally here on the evening of the 16 :h Inst, and at the re quest of many Democrats l hereby call a meeting of the Dougherty County Democrats for next Tuesday evening at 8:30 to consider this matter and to take such steps as may seem proper. Vice-President B. L. Weston will pre side and will be the official head of the club, during my absence. I hope that a good crowd may be present on Tuesday evening and thus show that you appreciate the efforts of organized Democracy. v S. J. Jones. August 6th, 1892 * Don’t forget to curl your hair Por the Democrats will all be rfere. Democracy will be pure and free And Ben E. Russell the nominee. So the Democrats say. The Dawson News has toned down. That will be a grand rally on the 16th inst. The alarmist would have you believe that this year we are face to face with a great crisis. What cris? Will Hill speak for Cleveland is a question asked by a great many people* They would like to know. Nobody is saying much about it, but new houses are being built all over Albany. A sure sign of prosperity. The rain makers have given up their job in Kansas. They have about decided that God has more control than they. Small manufacturing enter prises are said to pay handsome ly. Why don’t some of our moneyed men look into this.- “A burnt child dreads the fire.” This is an old addage and will doubtless prove a warning to the right Hon. O. B. Stevens. Perhaps in the course of time the Hon. 0. B. Stevens will learn that it is far better to keep com pany with good Democrats when seeking their sufferage. Altogether—The Democrats of both House and Senate have served their party the best they . could and deserve commenda tion rather than condemnation. The Liberal-Enterprise of Cuth- bert fails to show up at this office. We presume the fire within.the able editor has about consumed -him. If so he needfc to he put on ice to restore him. Wonder who will touch the button,, that will'charge the. wire that will put the convention in order, that will nominate Ben E. Bussell for Congress, from the Second Congressional District? The Stevens gang are now' set ting the cry of harmony! har mony ! The cry is too late, and. harmony'ought and should prevail in all things, still, he and his crowd have shown no inclination in this direction until every hope of success on their part had been banished by the nobjy fight of the straight Democrats.?' No, the peo ple want Ben Bussell or no oth er. .< It OUR ELECTOR. An honor worthily bestowed. Such was the case in the elec tion of Hon. Jesse W. Walters Presidential; Elector from, ‘the Second Congressional District. Georgia, Dougherty and Al- banv.has no truer Democrat than Mr. Walters, and the State Con vention assembled has demon strated the wisdom,of their de liberations in the selection of of him as an advocate of Demo cratic principles. Mr. Walteys is an able lawyer, true and tried in his Democracy, bold and fearless in his advocacy of its noble principles, ever ready to proclaim its doctrines at any and all times. . During the^ present campaign between the so-called Ocala or Al liance Democrats and the straight- outs he has done some effective work. Going into the thickest of the battles he has fought -valiant ly for the success of the party, and how just as victory is about to perch itself upon his banners, it is a fitting tribute that he should be chosen as one of our Presidential electors. From him will resound the force and eloquence of earliest Democracy, and every vale and hamlet of the Second district will be made to echo, and re-echo pure and lofty Democracy wh en he raises his voice in defense of her righteous principles. The News and Advertiser only voices the sentiments of hundreds of friends all over this district when w r e say no worthier man could have been selected for the duties to be performed, than Hon. Jesse W. Walters. All hands to the wheel and lets push the Democratic rally on the night of the 16th, to a »rand and glorious success. The Farmers’ Alliance claims that they are not the Third party, and yet, they as an organ ization have an open and avowed Third party paper as their official organ. Let them acknowledge the corn or pull down their sign. The would-be bosses around Dawson are a little sore over the fact that they haven’t been-recog nized when it comes to bossing. Try the right sort of a man next time and maybe you’ll come in. We throw this out by way of suggestion. Col. Albert Winter wields a trenchant pen, but it failed to sub serve the end desired after entering the employ of 0. B. Stevens. It is a pity that such an able writer should have enlisted in a work : or a man so utterly unworthy of the labor of which he was capa- )le. However here’s to the lealth of the Captain, and the success of Ben E. Russell. That Ben E. Russell special car that will come from Bain- iridge next week will be elegant- y festooned with moss and adorned on each side with a handsome portrait of Russell and will bear the significant inscrip tion—the “Moss-back Democrats of Decatur.” Decatur county is going to honor her noble son and hero of Democratic battles. The State convention assem bled at Atlanta this week has acted ^wisely in the nomination of Gov. Northen and the other State officers. The men selected as standard hearers of the Democ racy is proof conclusive of the brains and intelligence that pre vailed in that meeting. A Celebrated D-iutl Cas™ueciaeci. El Reno, Ok., Aug. 11.—The cele brated laud case, involving the Okla homa City town site, has been decided, and.in favor of the contestant, John F. Dawson. The tract was the one settled upon by the unfortunate boomer, Cap tain W. L. Couch. It was on this that Captain Couch was shot by J. C. Ad ams, whose trial is still pending. The ground has since been contested by ssv- eral persons, and in addition has twice been jumped and settled upon by people claiming it as a town site. The tract is valuable, being the best portion of Ok lahoma City. *Tl»e Granite Strike Kuded. - % • ' -> A ' New Haven, Conn., Aug. 11.—The granite cutters’ strike at Branford quar ries is practically ended, the men being completely beaten. At a recent meet ing, the strikers voted to go back at the terms offered by the manufacturers’.as sociation, but no attention is being paid to that action.

A TTrentj'-Thonaiuid-Dollar . Hr«. Two Rivers, Wis., Aug. 11.—The Two Rivers Manufacturing company's plant was hurned with a loss of $20,000. The building was struck by lightning during a severe storm. The rain was falling so fast that members of the fire department refused to leave their quar ters and respond to the alarm. Indian Kenegade Murderers. Deminq, N. M., Aug. IL—The bodies of Lee Hodgdon, son of J. B. Hodgdon, of this towp, and a Mexican named Escantalay, were found near Hatchita. A band of fifteen renegade Indians from San Carlo3, has been committing many depredations, and undoubtedly commit ted the crime. * No Reporters Wanted. Pittsburg, Aug. 11.—The conference between theiron manufacturers and the scale committee of the Amalgamated association did not resume work until 10:1:0 a. m.

THE SECOND DAY. The Knights Templar ill Denver—They Have No Competitive Drill. Denver, Aug. 11.—The second day of the conclave opened sunshiny and bright. The streets were thronged with people and*-the headquarters of tbs' various clubs presented an animated ap pearance. The principal event of the day wu3 the grand encampment. The session was secret, and very little could be learned of the proceedings. There was no competive drill, because Grand Master Gobin thought it would not be the proper thing. An" exhibition drill was held, however, at River Front park and a large crowd witnessed it. Thera was some disappointment because only twp commauderies appeared to take part. They were California, No. 1, mounted, and St. Bernard, of Chicago, one of the crack drill corps of America. The absence of Detroit drill corps .and other corps detracted from the exhibi tion, yet the California knights wt:ir through some astonishing evolutions on horseback and were applauded to t- echo. It is unofficially announced that the California and St. Bernard’s will be presented with silver bricks by the chamber of commerce. These are the prizes whicli were to have been given to the best drilled corps had the competi tive drill been allowed to proceed. « THE STRANGEST DEATH. M. D.

Statesboro, Ga., Aug. 11.—The strangest death on record in this part of Georgia—if not in the entire south—has just occurred here. A few days ago, several people who bad gathered in the store of J. W. OlifE & Co., began to discuss the strength of the members of the party. It was finally dicided to settle the question by practi cal test and they began raising bags of shot in their hands. Allen Hagins, a prominent farmer, living near here, was one" of the party and he took part in the tests with alac rity. He put up two or three hags of shot over his head with apparent, ease when all at once he cried out, "Oh, I’ve broken my hack!” Hagins was taken at once to the home of a physician near by and everything possible was done for him, but he died the next morning. He had in fact broken his ba^k. The Prosecution’s Policy.
