From unmistakable evidenoe which
has 11 Am laid before this committee. It
nupears that the Third Party th this

sent out in secret to the members of
tho Third Party of the district InstruO'
tlons to organize and vote at the Dorn
oorntlo primaries and select delegates
of their own party to the Democratic
convention who will vote for their
nominees. And It further appears
that many misguided men heretofore

From Tlmnolav's Kvenlng Humid.
The most enthuslnstio Democratic
meeting held iu Dougherty county
since the exoitlng campaign of the
early "Seventies” gathered at the
Court House last night.
It was a meeting nf the Democratic
Club of Dougherty County, nnd “the
boys” were there in force.
Eloquent speeches were made by
Judge R. P. Trlppe, Mr; W.W. Turner,
Col. W. A. Harris, of Worth,' Capt. R.
Hobbs and Mr. E. R. Jones.
Enthusiasm for the Simon-pure, un,
adulterated Democratic creed ran high,
and the dloquentBpeakcrs were cheered
to the coho.
The following resolution, introduced
by Mr. W. W, Turner, was received
with a whoop, and was as enthusias
tically adopted:
Resolved, That we reoognize in Col.
O. B, Wooten a man fully endowed
with the ability to ohamplon Demo
cratic principles and a man worthy of
the confidence of all Democrats; there
fore, be It
Resolved, That we Indorse him un
qualifiedly for the Democratic nomi
nation for Congress from the Seoond
Congressional dlstrlot.
Mr. W. O. Watson, a member of the
olub, raised the point of order that
this olub was not organized in the In
terest of Col. Wooten or any other
candidate, bdt for the harmony of th
Democratic party, and that a resolu
tion to indorse Col. Wooten was, there
fore, out of order. The chair over
ruled the' point of order, whereupon
Mr. Watson, moved to lay the resolu
tion on the table.
Mr. J. A. Walters rose to make some
remarks In support of Mr. Watson’s
motion, bnt wns cuff off by the point of
order that a motion to table was not
debatable; raised by Mr. W. W. Tur
ner, and sustained by the chair.
Following the adoption of the reso
lution Indorsing Col. Wooten there
was a running debate between Messrs.
Watson and Walters,, sb representa
tive ARiancemen, and Messrs. Turner
and Jones, in which many good points
were scored and sallies made that kept
upa lively interest In the meeting.
, The meeting adjourned subject to
the call of S, J. Jones, President.
