Richard Hobbs.is a pfonihfent i.Htnr. j citizen hf Albaiiy, and is well known ; throughout Georgia. Capt. Richard i Hobbs |j} Olnurimmsif tile Executive Gouiiniitee of the Democratic, party foil the beooftd Congressional district. N't 11 her of these facts, however, is a reason why there should jie a howl against Hobbs, The howl proceeds .fropi a very dlfferanvtruth against the distinguished gentleman, and that truth Is that he Is a Democrat, lie ns a Democrat, at the head ot the Execu tive Committee, wants to see Demn- erntle principles prevail, and is a sort of An'.ly Jackson, by the eternal way of expressing his devotion to those principles, aiul hence the howl. Who are tho howlers? Why,certain AUlnncemen, who had planned to cap ture the Democracy of the glo/lous old Second nnd subvert It to the base uses of the Ocala platform and the Third Pnrty; and, the avowed Third Party? Hob who, but for this very Hobbs nnd his committee, would, with impunity, have voted in the Democratic primar- les, perhaps unchallenged, nnd there fore boast their St. Louis heresies. Now, Hobbs, tbnt old Democratic lion, who had been thickest In the light ngninjt Radicalism for the past quar ter of n century for the love of his country (for he never sought olllce), jusl as naturally ns anything in the world threw Ills protest in tho way of the despollera of the Democratic parly, lie did not even roar! Only a smoth ered growl of his contempt and In dignation wiih permitted to break the stillness of Iho political atmosphere of the Second, Hut H was.unite enough, It die] the work. The old Democratic ship which was top-henvy with if range doctrines, nnd side-heavy with strange gods, began to right herself. lint oh! what a howl there came, my countrymen! The weak-kneed Democrats, those who controlled printing presses In particular, began to trend water, to straddle and to be moan. Tlie Democratic Yardstick— Die stick by wlilcb Iheir daddies Imd been measured for a century, was now like a red-hot poker to them. But, “in the reproof of fortune lies the true proof of men” anyway, nnd we are not surprised. Then enme certain Alli ance nianlpiihitors. In holy horror they lifted up their pious hands, and while for three years past engaged in the ncfnriuiis occupation of dissatis fying the agricultural classes with the Democratic party, unit doing nil in their power lo subvert Its principles, and boasting that they Imd 80,- 000 white voters who fnvored tho Ooafn In preference to the Democratic idea, and who declared wholesale boycott upon any news paper o? mcrohnnt who dared to differ with them, these anything but Democrats, for the past three years at least, arc lustiest in the howl against Hobbs. Their Democratic (?) hearts are made sail. Their Democratic (?) souls linvo gone a sorrowing. Their Domooratlo (?) gizzards are made to “purge thick amber.” Their Demo cratic (?) slirlno has been ruthlesscly torn down, and they go from place to place weeping nnd will not be comfor ted, because this Hobbs Ims wrung their Democratic (?) hearts, by just simply delliilog what Democratic doc trine is. Puss the carbolic nclil please. And then what do tlicsu disgruntled people, who for the past three years have threatened the Democratic party with dire destruction If It did not ac cept certain “demnmls," proceed to do to break the force of tho little healthy discipline administered by tills one- armed Confederate soldier, this grand old Irishman and Democrat, Capt. Richard Hobbs?. Why it is saifl that sataii trembles when be sees the weak est Balnt upon his Knees.” And there was a great trembling anil rattling of the dry bonus among the “faithful” of the Alliance leaders and Third Party. “We must stlok together for this time,” the would wont -out. “We must stay in the ranks for this time for we have got opr Stevens to look after.” “Alll- ancemen,Third Party men, everything antagonistic to the Democratic party must stick together for this time, or until Btevens Is nominated. Hobbs has forced us to tlils.uonolusion.” And they began to howl against Hobbs. They began to fulminate against Hobbs. They began to reso lute against llobbs. Hobbs is tlielr nightmare, llobbs D the Banquo who ups in all their strange political orgies and will not down 1" Hobbs is “the skeleton In the olonet” of this faction which would subvert the doctrine of Democracy to that of Simpsonian sock- lessism. But Hobbs can stand the storm. He is an old-fashioned, dyed- in-the-wood Democrat. He is a citi zen worthy of any town, county, State or country. He stands drm and un moved, while the faotions roar and fume around him, utterly oblivious of the turmoil. Would the Democratic party bad a Hobbs within every square mile of Georgia's soil! Hobbs la an intensely loyal Democrat, In the loyalty of the rank and file of the Democracy we hope to find success at last. Nothing elBe will count, especially in these “corrupted times.” Ocean steamers are now fitted out with folding berths. The Atlanta Constitution has felt'lfc j TheMkftiih fids TffWlldve a tiling seH ’chHed upon'to read a couple of before it cfiiV advocate it or manifest lectures'to the D<‘i&ocratin''ExecutiveS ttn e»thosia8m over It that la. oaten- Eleventh I_ he, PAny man or cause. Being Committees of the Second ami Elcvv Congressional districts, mid Icis also ■jrnwp an jntervie.w Irym .Bate Chair man Atkinson deprecating a afate of affaire, in these districts- which does not exist, so far as the Second district Is concerhort. ' In line of the editorial /lectures to which we refer the Constitution says: “We regret to hoc a diwiHi-itlon man!rested In the Second and Kleventh Coitsvessioiml dist.dcl* to refuse to nhnw llomoeiatio AlUancetnco, WllO nru favorable to the demands of the Ocala |ilntfunn, to pnrllehiule hi the Denioeratie pri maries td the dtsU'lcV The proceedings of*the Executive Committee of the Second district hava been published throughout the dis trict, and the Constitution ought to have read them if It did not. The committee sat with open dooifs in this city on the 21st of April, and official publication of its nctlon was promptly made. We cannot speak so positively for the committee of the Eleventh dis trict, for we have seen no report of its proceedings; hut there was certainly nothing done by (lie Executive Com mittee of the Mccoml district to call forth the lectures that have been vol unteered by the Constitution and Chairman Atkinson, or to give the Constitution Anything upon which to base Its regrets Hint “Alliancemen who are favorable to the demands of the Ocnln platform” linve not or will not be allowed to participate in the Dem ocratic primaries. The only action taken by our Execu tive Committee bearing upon the qual ification of voters In the Democratic primaries was embodied In the follow ing resolution: Resolved, gltnt the test for a voter at the Ilemoerntle primaries In this district he that tho votur, when challenged, shall swear that he accepts in good faith the plutform ot princi ples adopted by the National Dcmuorntla Con vention at Chicago, and that the national Dem ocratic platform adopted at Chicago he the true tost of Democracy. * Now, Mr. Constitution, and Mr. At kinson, too, what’s the matter with this? There Is not the Slightest refer ence to the Ocala platform nor to “Democrats favorable to the demands of the Ocnln platform" In It, Otte member of the committee insisted upon a clause In tho resolutions adopted which made some roferenoe to the “demands of tho Ooaln platform,” but the committee very promptly voted It down and plnntcd Itself upon the platform of the Democratic party. In Chairman Atkinson’s interview he prcsuincs’ta lecture our Executive Committee, and then when he himself undertakes to dcllne the Democratic test he uses the same ideas and almost the'Identical'language employed by, the committee lie assumes to reprove. Cliairmnn Atkinson ami the Constitu tion, too, will be safe in patterning after our Executive Committee when it comes to defining Democratic creeds and principles, bot when tliey do this they should not turn lecturers. The Democratic Executive Commit tee of the Second district is composed of Democrats tried and true, and the Constitution's solicitude with refer ence to its action is gratuitous and en tirely unnecessary. Ma. Jbshk Waltkks siiyn that If-Stovcng is iioniinutu.1, Dougherty county will give's Re publican majority of 1,000. Mr. Walters and this Inch of orthodoxy la raepcetfully ivfcrrod to die Now* and Advertiser.—'Tlianinavillo News. Mr. Walters 'doesn’t say any such thing. The News reported him ns having made some such assertion ns this at Isabella duringcourt week, and Mr. Walters promptly published a card in the Herald in which lie denied having used the language attributed to him. Why does the News persist in charging Mr. Walters with this rash assertion after lie has denouhoed It as false? It would doubtless be very pleasing to Editor Winter to see Dougherty county go Republican by 1,000 majority; but be need lay no sucb flattering unction to his soul. Capt. llobbs and the Democratic Club of Dougherty County, whose politics are not shaped or designed to suit the ideas of snob exotics in this Demo cratic clime as Editor Winter appears to be, will take care of Dougherty county, The Cbioago Inter Ooean thus ex presses true Cbrlstian philosophy: stand back a little and give Feed Ward an other ohancc. A man should not bo killed for a single mistake. . Yea; give him another obance—a man is not necessarily bad all through beoause he has made one mistake. Ward has had trials enough within the last few years to soften the heart of the wont of criminals. He has lost hla wife, his father and his mother, and if the man desires an opportunity to mend his ways, lend him a helping hand. (H&hS -“Bi 1 ‘ Vtal As ilius constituted; we can join’ the 'cm- Ihmlants for ndltliei* Mr. Cleveland nor Mr. Hill;” foe we are fully persuaded thnt fHc'Deriiocratic pnrty will "make a grcnt mlstake by nominating either of them.'""' Mr. Cleveland'is the best man, but Mr. Hill is the best Democrat, when the two men are weighed amt meas ured by the pnrty standard. The one Is a gold-bug with Mugwumplan ten dencies; the other a cold-blooded ma chine politician. If forced to chose be tween the two we would take Mr. Hill for tlie present emergency, on the Idea of baying a man who would “light the devil with fire” and wage relentless war upon the Republican party; but we believe that the Democratic pnrty can do better than take either of them for its Presidential candidate. It is extremely doubtful whether either Mr. Cleveland or Mr. HllI could carry New York In the election. The State Is never reliably Democratic In a Presidential election, yet it is essential to Democratic success in tho aggregate of States. Thnt the State is badly di vided between the two men there can be no doubt, and the breach has widened until the followers of each openly dcclnre that the other ennnot carry It for Democracy if nominated. We fail to see why the Democratic pnrty should, of necessity, be confined to these two men in selecting a Presi dential candidate, and unless thelend- ers of the party entt find another available mgn and unite upon him, the Democratic outlook cannot be regard ed, from a standpoint of reason nnd common sense, as a very hopeful one in this year of our Lord 1802. Cot,. VVooTKN's friends Imvo been his worst enem'es In the Congressional campaign. Ity tlicir intemperate seal and ill-advised partisan ship they havo effectually destroyed any chances tho gentleman might havo had for the nomination. In tho old-fnsiiioned spelling iMMik there is n hit of philosophy to the effect that experience keeps a costly school, hut thnt individuals or certain turns or mind will learn in no other.—Thomusvlllc News. It may be true thnt some of Col. Wooten’s friends have been indiscreet and have done him more ftnrm than good; but in politics, ns in everything elpe, a man ought to be judged by his own actions and utterances. Col. Wooten has dodged none of the issues ofsthe day in his campaign so fnr v He stands flat-footed oh the Dcmoeratlo platform, and evades nothing in his addresses to the people. He hns made more speeohes than any other gentle man in the district since the present oatqpalgn opened; and yet none of those who oppose him have been able to make nny capital out of any of his utterances. lie Is not n man given to silly speech or petty flings, but stands as an able nnd consistent exponent and ndvocato of the principles of pure Democracy. Judge tlie man by his own utterances nnd not by those of some of his indiscreet friends. Thus judged and measured, Col. Wooten will compare favorably with any gen tleman in the district, and in an issue where native ability, lenrning and "po litical sngaclty, based, upon principle; are worth anything, be has nothing to fear. Editor W. W. Turner, of the News nnd Advertiser, filled an appointment for Col. Wooten at Blakely on Satur day, and divided time with Messrs. Griggs and Wilson, who appeared as the champions of Candidate Stevens. It is useless to say that Mr. Turner took a bold stand for straiglitout Democracy and bit straight from the shoulder. He was given a cordial re ception nnd respectful hearing by the people of Early county, and thu friends of Col. Wooten were more than satis fied with the results of the joint de bate between Mr. Turner, on one side, and Messrs. Griggs and Wilson on tlie other. The indications are that Early will send a Wooten delegation to the Congressional convention. W. T, CaatsTOFUEH has sold out the Montezuma Becord and gone to Texas. Well, moving to Texas is better than trying to run a Third Party paper in Georgia. The Atlanta Constitution boasts that it throws away more telegraphic mat ter thntiiis printed by any other Geor gia daily. This will be questioned or denied by some of its contemporaries, but It is not the purpose of the Herald to volunteer an opinion on the Con stitution's extravagance.’ We do want to say, however, that it doesn’t throw away enough to get rid of all tlie rot that is sent to it over the wires. This is not only true with referen ee to the Constitution, but might be applied with equal justice to all the leading metro politan journals of the day. Nor do we want to be understood as under rating tbe Constitution’s excellence as a newspaper. It is a great paper, and prints the news when there isany, but at the same time it and all other big dailies issue a lot of telegraphic mat ter daily that isn’t news. The time la coming when a more rigid discrimi nation between telegraphio mews that is news and rot that ia only rot, even though It be sent over the wires, will have to be made in metropolitan jour- naliarn. . J*gjg| _ Ah, r assqclJtffori'TIns "been formed in New York Which has for Its ’■ bbject a' burial reform. This society has issued a circular for the purpose of bringing abpiita change in burial customs, and It supports a project by which inter- inent cro be liad t at a reasonable cost- varying from $10 to $200. This reform has tiie support of such men as Bishop Rotter, Bishop Little john, Dr. Morgan Dix, Rev. Charles Hall, and others. The advanced thinkers of the age recognize the necessity of a cleaner nnd more sensible way of disposing of the dead than by burial in caskets de signed to preserve the body. To those who are acquainted with the horrible state of ufl'airs that have from time to time nrlsen In London from tlie time- honored custoiA ofbnrylng in churches,• the constantly more pressing net'll of at once returning a dead human body to its native element, is felt. Death would be robbed of half tbe horror It lias for many people were it not for the grave. The. change from this life to the next, to a well-balanced mind and a God-fearing sou), lias little of terror In It. But the concomitant of death strikes a chill to the bravest heart—“tbe narrow, house,” tile suffo cating, deep burial anil the slow decay —each have their separate dread. The Idea of promoting a quick return to the “earth which nourished thee’’ seems the* only dean and Christian kind of burial. Cremation Is now in its infancy. The horror with which the idea was first entertained is dying out amt the cleaniless of the custom is more and more recoifilhendiiig itself to the people. A burial reform association ought lo receive the hearty support of a com munity, for a different disposition of the human dead Is pile of the needed reforms of the times. Candidate Stevens Is out in a four- onliimn article In the Tlimnasville News in which he undertakes to pull himself out of the hole in which the address issued by the Democratic Club of Dougherty County, tlie early .part of tills week, plnced him. It Is but a repetition of the statements made in, his campaign circular Issued from Clay county last week, a inters de signed to appeal to the sympathies nnd prejudices of the Alliancemen—to array them against Capt. Iloblis, the Chairman of the Democratic Execu tive Committee, and prejudice them against everything and everybody in Albany, Mr. Stevens evidently called in some help In the preparation of his four columns pf artful dudging, but it was nf a snrt hbt ituligcnous to tho Demoorntio soil of Southwest Georgia and altogether too fmntetjish lor the politleal olime In which it Is expected to do duty; The following, from the Chicago In ter Ooean, is. too good to be lost, even if it does put the laugh on the Demo crats : A Demoorntio politician in Georgia wns recently kicked in the mouth by a horse. A horse shoe bung up over such un entrance ought to certainly bring good luck. IT would by a very, very sad thing if the Al bany Democratic clah tdmald refuse to abide the Hemoonitle nomination la the Congtcii- UmfdTucc.—TUomiittville KeWa. Don’t you be worried about tho Albany Democratic club. There is not half so much danger of that or ganization refusing to abide the Demo cratic nomination as there is that the gang which the new Thomasville or gan is trying to serve will be captured by the Third Party. There Is a hidden moral in this lit tle paragraph from the Boston Herald which tenches a good lesson : “They sny that the dnughter of the Astors proposes to return to America and live down the scandal which has given the family name so unpleasant notoriety. Living down a scandal is not so easy a task as It might be. A slanderous woman wns mice sentenced by n priest to the duty of plucking a chicken as shj walked through tlie streets, scat tering the feathers. She having ac- 'compiislied this, he imposed a further task of gathering up every feather which liad been tossed about hither and thither by the winds of heaven, telling her that until this wns done the evil she lind worked oould not be re paired.” . Camp Narlheu Bendy- for ihe Roys. Camp_Nortlien, at Griffin, is nearly If not quite ready for the boys. Some ol\ the military boys who w,ere at Clnckninaiiga last year say that Camp Northen is by far the prettiest and most convenient site for an encamp ment. The Savannah Press says of it: As it looks now, with the forests bud ding into greenness, with tbe dog woods and honeysuckles and wild flowers blooming nil around, its lovely miniature lake and its sparkling foun tains of pure water, it is an 'deal spot for tbe gallant volunteer soldiery to go into,.camp to spend a few weeks of pleasure and instruction. Mr. Will McDowell is soon to leave Albany, much to the regret of hundreds of bis friends here. Next Monday be will leave for Blakely. Shortly after this, he will leave for Dallas, Tex, and go thence to Mexico. Mr. McDowell' has ' decided on this move for a number of reasons, but wherever he goes he will carry the best wishes of a host of friends in Al bany. .. •.. '• ’’.£#[ 1-MtseemMsM , bxcbb- AlNBBltfbB. A All wW nnd Ilnrln* n Good Time. it a \ Baindkidoe, Ga, May 8, 1892. Dear Herald :—Thinking that Steve Pfice nnd the loved ones at home would he glad to learn our whereat abouts and welfare, I thought that W would drop yon a few lines. We reached the Baiu.bridgr v.iinrf at 1:80 this afternoon. The steamer did .a good business all the way down; mW-our party found ample time to take in nnd admire the beautiful scenery, which, at this sea son, is second to none on any stream In the South. Tlie genial Judge W. T. Jones met our party here, and is now quartered among us. -We all gave the Judge warm welcome^for we were indeed glad to add his name to otir list, and our happiness would be complete if we oould only have our good friend Steve Price. Mnj. Andy Floyed and Col. J, W, Walters furnished fish for supper last night. We are always glad to-soe Mnj. Floyed shove his boat overboard (While tbe steamer is discharging freight) and start down the river.lor we.know that trout cannot resist his “flies." . Some pf the boys l'eel disappointed owing to tlie news wc received at,tiling, place to tbe effect tbnt it is almost a death penalty to shoot a turkey or deer around the Dead Lakes—can’t shoot anything but alligators and squirrels. Capt, O. G. Gurley paid our party a pleasant visit this afternoon. He says that the Tobacco erbp around Bain bridge is a success up to date, and that the county is in guotl condition. It is silid that if the farmers get as good prices for their tobacco (his year as last they will get entirely out of debt. L Capt. Gurley stated thnt one farmer 'k paid out of debt last season froth his tobacco receipts for tbe first time in sixteen yenrs. We took Capt. Markham aboard this evening, nnd he will pilot ns down the lower river. We will leave here at. about 8 o’clock to-night, and will prob- nbly reach the Lakes at daylight to- morrow morning. The entire party send their beBt love to the Herald. Frrz doodle. A Chat About Fashions, The summer dress is one designed for comfort — ostensibly. In some points it is a comfortable attire. Iti others—well, the time never will come when women will be willing to sacri fice appearances for oomfort, and they v linve become so thoroughly imbued with the idea of the grace nhd ele gance thnt that much-abused half yard ? • of cloth called tbe demi-train adds to their appearance, that a desperate struggle will ensue before it Is rele- . gated to the dim closet of “old fash- )d ions."' • Tennis gowns and dresses for coun try and scnsiile'are riiade with long skirts. There is one consolation, how ever—grass is clean. The blazer, the bell skirt, and the Sp" blouse waist of silk are the distinctive features of tlie summer traveling dress. There are fashions in perfumery as well as in other things. A lady of elegance no longer uses liquid per fume on her handkerchief or clothing. Indeed, it is considered quite vulgar. Odors as dainty as though doubly dis tilled from all the sweet perfumes you can recall from your birth, are the odors that are disseminated on the air - from the judicious use of sachets. If you have a passion for dainty odors, line all tlie drawers of your wardrobes and dressers with pads perfumed with delicate sachet powders. Use liquid perfumes only in the bath or to cool and freshen the skin after the bath. = It was a German chemist who orig inated the Pasta-nacks which have now become so popular with men and women for scenting the bath. These' preparations come in.tiny tablets, each Wrapped with gold foil. Half of a tablet used in the bath will give a de licious perfume to the body and pene trate even the. garments. S3 The outside of some of the newpook- . etbooks represents more value than the inside. White ivory and white kid with silver or gold mountings, gray suede with Vi covering of woven steel, and lizard skin ip dull green with gold filigree decoration are among the novelties. Heart shaped purses . are newest, and in every case the pur*. 8e8 must match the costume and the card cases must match thfpocketbook. *•» Beep Oeol. Don’t eat. Don’t think. Don’t go in the sun. Don’t drink ice water; Don’t get interested in politics. From the Darien Gazette. The Third . Party cranks are after the scalp of tbe Hon. Bill Harris, sec retary of the State Senate. Bill Har ris will have their scalps before the summer is over. He is a very -hart man to down, and don’t yon forget M
