The Dawson News of this reluctant ly admits that Its candidate for Con gress Is as good as defeated for the Democratic nomination. In an artlole on the situation, after all the counties have aoted, the News says: Mr. Stevens seems to have won the nomination, but It Is the general opin ion that enough of the contesting del egates will be seated to give Mr. Rus sell the nomination. And here is another paragraph from the same souroe. and bossing the ] party, while the other Demoornts'seem to oco DEMOCRATS IN SIMMON. At the State Demoeratlo convention In Atlanta Wednesday, Hon. J. W. Wal ters, of this city, was made Demo cratic Presidential Elector for the Second Congressional district, with Hon. S. G. McLendon, of Thomas, as alternate. The selection of Hr. Walters Is a de served compliment to one of the truest and most brainy Democrats of the State, and It Is safe to say that the cause of Democracy will not be with out an able advocate In the Second dis trict in the present Presidential cam- palgn. Mr. Walters has already done some very effective work for the organised Democracy of the district in the present remarkable and altogether unprecedented Congressional oam palgn. When the situation was most serious and the supremacy of Demo cratic party organization was danger ously threatened, Mr. Walters went into the thickest of the fight and proudly carried the banner of Simon- pure organized Democracy, His ear nestness and eloquence did much to rally the people around the banner that he bore so triumphantly, and now that he has been made the Presidential Elector for this district, he will be hoard from again whenever and wher ever theoauseof true Democracy needs an able and fearless advocate before the people of the district. T9m Male Ticket Naaeiaaled YMardav. POLITICAL AND OTHERWISE. Tom Watson came out Wednesday with one of his usual political har angues, before a crowd of his followers who were assembled to hear him speak at his home at Thomson. Tom told about all he had done for them during his past eight months stewardship In the halls of Congress, and before he had finished his gilt-edged falsehoods and wonderful promises had the orowd all his way. He stated that he had proved his oharges of drunken ness against members of the House, and, of course, his pnrmdtes believed him. But there are still some sensible people in the Tenth, and, we believe, enough of them with the power to vote to put down this blaokguard who at tempts to win fame through slander ing others. It is rumored that Messrs. W. A. Poe, John Y, Lowe and Bob Johnson will be the Third Party candidates for tho Legislature from Bibb. Mr. Poe is a lawyer, and Messrs. Lowe and John son are farmers. The Third Party In Bibb county is said to be the strongest In the Warrior distriol, though there Is quite a sprinkling in the East Ma con distrlot. The State Democratic Convention met In Atlanta yesterday In the ball of the House of Representatives. Everything moved along smoothly and harmoniously, and where there was no contest for the oflloe, the offi cers were nominated by acclamation. The convention was opened by Chairman Atklnson’s'speeob, who an nounced the purpose of the convention, and made a strong appeal In favor of Democratic harmony throughout the State. After Mr. Atkinson had finished his speech, Temporary Chairman Stovall took the ohalr amid loud cheering and prolonged applause. The eloquence of this able and loyal Democrat was cheered time and again during Ills speech. After one or two more short speeches the convention proceeded to business. All candidates, except those in the race for Attorney General, were nom inated by acclamation, Hon. W. J. Northen being nominated for Gov ernor by Judge F. L. Little, of Han- cook, in a bright speeoh, which was a glowing tribute to Gqvernor Northen’s administration. Hon. Joe Terrell’was successful-over his opponent, Hon. W. C. Glenn, how ever, in the race for Attorney General, and Col. R. T. Nesbitt was nominated for Commissioner of Agriculture. The full tloket as nominated Is as follows: FOR GOVERNOR, Hon. William J. Northen. The Albany^ fellows seem to be on top ) occupy as important a position In party oounolls as the minis' *' - ‘ * ‘ ster to Dahomey. Rather hard on the rest of we fellows, but what is Is. The Kolb men In Alabama are charg ing the other side with fraud in re gard to the election returns. The vote of several districts, which gave Kolb majorities, have been thrown out be- ORiiso they were not accompanied by the proper election certificates. The Kolb men claim that certificates were with the boxes when turned over to the authorities, and that they have been tampered with since. Kolb, in fact, claims that he is elected, and bases his claim on these grounds. This will protnbly bring about a con test. Great indignation is belngexpressed on all sides in Memphis on account of Gov. Buchanan's action in commuting the sentence of Col. II. Clay King, the murderer of David II. l’osten, to life imprisonment. Public sentiment is strong in condemnation of the mur derer, and, while the Governor’s notion did not oreate much surprise, it was desired by a large number of citizens that the law be allowed to take its course. Petitions asking for executive clemency were signed by fully 20,000 persons, while counter petitions against King were signed by fully as many people. The press is strong in its denunciation of the Governor’s ac tion. The prominence of the criminal undoubtedly led the Governor to take the course he did. Ex-Third Party leader C. C. Post has gone to Michigan to take an active part in the People’s Party campaign there. Post once posed as the leader of the party in Georgia, but now that there are several other Riohmonds in the field, he has taken somewhat of a back seat, and is endeavoring to estab lish himself in other fields. “LM Vs nave Peace.” From the Dawson Nows. The News Iv for peace. FOR SECRETARY OF STATE, General Phil Cook. FOR COMPTROLLER GENERAL, Hon. William A. Wright. FOR TREASURER, Hon. Robert U. Hardeman. FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL,’ Hon Joseph M. Terrell. FOR COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE, Hon. R. T. Nesbit. The convention has made good se lections in Its nominations. All of the nominees are good stanch Demo crats, and everything portends well for a rousing Democratic majority when the elections come off. Tom Watson will have his hands full looking after his own fences In this campaign, and will not have much time to waste fighting Crisp in the Third. Tom Watson, in his opening speeoh, leaves no room to doubt the fact that he has purposely pulled himself away from the Democratic party, and that he relies as muoh upon the Negro vote as the Third.
