The Democratic Executive Commit tee of the Second Congressional ills trlct met In this city to-day, and was called to order at 12 o’clock by Capt. K. Hobbs, Chairman.

Chairman llobbB stated that he had called the committee together on ac count of Information which ha had which seemed to make' a more active and aggressive campaign upon the part of the true Democraoy of the DIs. triot necessary. Col. Harris offered a preamble -and resolutions to bo adopted as, express ing the views and recommendations of tJ>“ "•mimltteiuui tlic,situation. After considerable discussion a committee was appointed on resolutions, and the paper offered by Col. Harris was re ferred to that committee. The com mittee on resolutions wns appointed by the Chairman, nnd consisted of Messrs. Spence, Triplett and Irwin. The ooinmittce on resolutions ac cepted the main features of Col. Har ris’s resolutions, and reported thorn with some slight alterations nnd amendments. The aoinmittee then madu spine alterations, and the resolu 11011 h as Anally adopted were as fol lows 1 From unmistakable evidenoe which has 11 Am laid before this committee. It nupears that the Third Party th this dlstrlot has formed Itself Into n pollt ioal party, having appointed a cam pnlgn committee, which In turn has 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 Democrats In the dlstrlot, have for mally renounced Delnooraoy and joined the Third Party and pronose, then .to go to the polls and vote 1 m Demoorati •It f .. further appearing that, although this committee requested all the coum ties In the district to hold their sev eral primaries on the 80th day of July next for the selection of delegates to the Congressional Convention to be held on the 17th day of August next, that several oountles, the Executive Committees of which have upon them Third Party meu, are ignoring said In structions, and are catling and holding their conventions now with a view to select Third Party men as delegates to said Congressional Convention to rt Third Party men. The coin- support Third Party mlttee feel jthat, in thus trying to le Oon'gres • - • • * ■ bring on the Congressional primaries before the time recommended by this committee, and in thus aoting In disk regard and lu violation of Democratic usage, the promoters and abettors of the Third Party are seeking to force Democrats to submit to their obnox.- lousand dangerous doctrines.' Be it Resolved, That we respectfully ' he dlstrlot who quest the true men of the nave been enticed Into this unholy Third Party movement to withdraw from the same, and be with us as in the past, battling shoulder to shoulder for our mutual interests, whloh ore identical. Be it further Resolved, That the Democrats of the several counties of this district are re quested to refrain from participating inany way iu the primaries. or oon- di ventlons which, under the organize, tlon and manipulation of the Third tion ana manipulation 0 Party, are now being hrid contrary to the Instructiona of this committee, and to bold aa requested Democratic primaries on the 80th pf July next for the selection .of delegates to. the Con gressional convention. Be it further Resolved, That the Democratsof. the several counties In which conventions are about to be held, ignore the same and hold primaries on the 80th of July next, to appoint delegates to the Con gressional oonvention. Be it further Resolved, That the convention which is called to meet in Albany on the 17th day of August next to nominate a can INDSTINCT PRINT 1 didate for Congress for this district, are respectfully requested to recognize only the delegates which are selected by the primaries held on the 80th of July next. In making these recommendations the convention does not wish to be un derstood as dictating to the Democrats nf this district. We simply see the dangerous conspiracy which Is organ ized against your welfare, and beg yon T. I». Oma. ized against your welfare, and beg yon to buokle on your nrmor, and defeat the machinations nf these dangerous men. We further request that the Demo crats of the several counties get to gether and see to it that their Exeou. tlve Committees are composed of Dem. ocrats, purging, the committees of all “■' ' Party mei Third Party men and those who will not abide by the party rules adopted by this committee, and that the com mittee, when purged and organized, shall nold primaries as provided by law. And that the returns of the elec tions thus held shall be returned to the Executive Committees ot the several counties by the managers of said elec- Ton. tlons, after consolldatl Resolved, That the test for a voter at the Democratic primaries In this district be that the voter, when chal lenged, shall swear that lie accepts, in good faith, the platform of principles adopted by the National Democratic Convention at Chloago, and that the National Democratic platform adopted at Chicago be the true test of Democ racy, Col. E, L. Wight appeared before the committee as the representative of the Dougherty County Democratic Club and asked that Democrats who favor the Ocala platform, and olalm to be Democrats, be not read out of the party, Mr. J. H. Scalfe, Chairman of the Executive Committee of Mitchell county, and Mr. Scott, Chairman of the Clay uounty committee, were present and addressed the'committee, giving the status of affairs in their respective counties.

C. n* Woolen Vnounllaedljr In, iloreed lor Congreee. 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. -F O R- J. V. Him. FURNITURE GO TO GREEN & MASON. Having purchased R. L.
