The IIEhalU prints on its fth page
to-day a letter from Hon. O. B. Stev
ens which will be read with Interest
throughout the Second Congressional
district.
in view of the fact that Mr, Stevens
has been the Alliance candidate for
Congress In this district, his letter is
of especial interest and significance.
It breathes the spirit of true Democ
racy, and appeals in strong and most
convincing terms to those who sup
ported Mr. Stevens in his candidacy to
stand by the Democratic party anil
make their fight for reform inside the
Democratfc party organization. “For,”
says lie, “to that party we must after
all look for relief from our grievances
anil deliverance from tpe burdens tlmt
oppress our people.” These are true
words fitly spoken.
There Is but one sentence In Mr.
Stevens’letter to which the IIebai.d,
from the standpoint of those who op
posed him in his candidacy, would
tako the IcaBt exception, and in refer
ring to It here we desire to do so
more in the way of nil explanation
than in a spirit of criticism. We al
lude to that part of the letter In which
It is said that the past canvass was
“purely and simply the farmers’ fight
against nil other trndes nml profess
ions not th full sympathy with their
views and purposes for reform.” This
may be true; but If It Is, It Is nlso true
that the fight was invited nnd precipi
tated by the farmers themselves by the
organization of a District Alliance for
political purposes and bringing out n
candidate of their own faith and order,
and upon a platform of principles that
had been promulgated by the Farmers’
Alliance in advance of any action upon
the part of the Democratic party upon
the questions or issues involved.
But Mr. Stevens’ letter is, in Its en
tirety, so timely and thoroughly Demo
cratic—so manly and patriotic as com
ing from one who has grncefully yield
ed to the will of the political party to
which, after all, he says wo must “look
for relief from our grievances nnd tie
liveranoe from the burdens that op
press our people,” that the Herald
would commend it rather than criti
die it. Mr. Stevens isdoing what he
can to preserve the unity of the Demo,
oratic party, and the Herald Is glad
to be tnado the medium of carrying
his menage of party loyalty to the
people of the Second Congressional
district.

GENERAL
Slnoo Editor Winter, of theThomas-
vtlle News, retired from the Held of ac
tive journalism, there are perhaps not
more than two newspaper men in
Georgia whose wealth runs up into
the hundreds of thousands; nnd, if the
truth were told, It would have to be
said that the great majority of them
And it hard to keep their paper bills
paid and to meet the weekly payroll.
But the true newspaper man never
complains, and knows that he is expec
ted to boom the town and keep the
bright aide out whether his own bus
iness is prosperous or his heart within
haa reason to be glad and oheerful or
not. lie Is acoustomed to sawl ng wood
in hla own back yard, so to speak, and
holding a light without by which the
world may see and know the advanta
ges that hit town has over all competi
tors nnd the excellencies of his fellow-
oitizens over thoso of any other town
on the faoe of the globe. He Is expec
ted to hold the light so It will shine
upon the bright aide of his neighbor
and ills fellow-townsman’s business,
too, and oast a shadow over the things
that would look hotter unBeen.
Blit we are about to digress. It is
about the newspaper man’s kinsfolk
that we started to write.
Newspapermen, strange as it may
nppear to some, come into the world
like unto other men, and are generally
blessed with the usual quota of klns-
people—relations rioh and poor, good,
bad and Indifferent.
But he may have a thousand, extend
ing through all the degress of consan
guinity from brother nnd uncle out to
tlfth cousin, nnd perhaps not more than
one out of every hundred will bo con
siderate enough to subscribe for his
paper nnd pny him for it. The other
ninety-nine will think he ought to
send it to them in n complimentary
way.
“Why don’t yon send me your paper!
asks or writes uncle or oounsln So-and-
80. “I would like so much to have
it.” Indeed! And yet it has perhaps
never ocourred to this dear relation
of the impeounious editor that he
ought to subsoribe and pay for the
paper. In the aggregate the paid
subscriptions of all the well
meaning and perhaps admiring
kinspeople of the average coun
try editor would be enough
to make him feel glad that he had been
born; while to send his paper out free
to them would be a tax upon him that
he 1b unable to bear, and that he ought
not to be expected to bear apy more
than the dealer in any commodity
should be expeoted to supply his rela
tions with it free of charge.
