tee of Thomas comity, as we learn from
the Times-Enterprlse, (net at the of
fice of A. T. McIntyre, Jr., on Monday.
In view of facts well known through
out the Second Congressional dlstriot,
the action of the Thomas county Exec
utive Committee, after hearing the
news from the district Democratic
convention, is matter of interest to the
people of the district, and the Herald
therefore reproduces from the Tlmes-
Enterprise the report of the commit
tee’s proceedings at its meeting on
Moridny:
The following members were pres
ent: 'A. T. McIntyre, Jr.. J. S. Mont
gomery, Walter Stephen-on, Jesse
Cooper, Theo. Titus, proxy of J. I,.
Beverly, Albert Winter, proxy of B. II.
Pope.
Mr. McIntyre called the meeting to
order and then requested Mr. Tilde.
Titus to take the chair, when he sub
mitted the following address for adop
tion by the committee:
To the Demooratsof Thomas county:
On May 12,1892, a mnss meeting was
regularly called by H. W. Hopkins,
then chairman of the Democratic Ex
ecutive Committee of Thomas county.
At said mass meeting there were from
GOO to 800 assembled in the court house,
who elected a new executive committee,
sent delegates to the presidential, gub
ernatorial, senatorial and congress
ional conventions, all of which was
done without a dissenting voice. The
delegates were recognized without a

Albany was peaceably invaded by
nearly 800 of the colored population of
Thomasville Thursday.
They came on the regular passenger
train, arriving at II o’clook.
A benevolent society, known ns the
Thomasville Aid Kaising Society, con
stituted the greater number of the
orowd. The members of this society
formed in procession at the-depot nnd
marched up town to the rat-n-ta-ta-
bum-bum of n drum corps.
The sooiety embraces both sexes nnd
includes boys and girls. The men
were dressed in blaok, wearing blue
badges and white snshes, while tile
women were attired in white waists
and black skirts, the sombre black be
ing relieved by two white stars on
either side about midway the skirt.
Proceeding to Broad street, the pro
cession went through a series of evo
lutions—a sort of dress parade. They
made n line appearance and attracted
quite a crowd.
Altogether tills was the most re-
speotablo looking and orderly Negro
excursion that has visited Albany this
summer. They returned on the 8
o’clock train this afternoon.

Colquitt. This executive committee
was recognized by the State Execu

few in this and other counties in the
Second Congressional district.
A meeting was called on July 23d
at the court house, at the instanoe of
parties here, who were dissatisfied
with the selection of Congressional
delegates on May 12th, 1892. The ob
ject of this mnss meeting was to an
nul the notion of May 12th in selecting
delegates to the Congressional conven
tion. After a discussion, full nnd fair,
tills meeting overwhelmingly endorsed
the action of the meeting of May 12tli
in selecting delegates
On the evening or night of the same
itlf
day, a few, still dissatisfied with the
verdiot of the peoplo twice overwhel
mingly expressed, met nnd proceeded
to call a primary eleotiontobe held on
July 80th. At said eleotion of July
80th, only two hundred and seventy-
seven legal votes were cast, out of a
eg:
total white vote of between 1,000
and 2,000.
Your committee advised the Demo
crats to abstain from voting on July
30th, hecause the party had already
twloe acted.
At the Congressional convention,
held in Albany August 17th, 1892, the
delegates selected May 12th and reaf
firmed July 28rd, were not recognized.
. Honestly and firmly believing that
all power ought to rest-in the people,

that the Democratic masses ought to
rule, and that the executive committee
should obey rather than order them,
we solemnly protest against this notion
and hereby declare that we believe
that your rights were ignored.

rather favorable to potatoes and other

Dr. E. Campbell Davis, formerly of

ville, Ky., where he recently graduated
with high honora in the medical de
partment of the University of Louis
ville, after a four years’ course of study,
Is in the oit.y and will practice here.
Dr. Davis is, perhaps, one of the best
informed young medical men in the
Southern States. He took a special
course of studies in chemistry under
Dr. Harry White, at the State Univer
sity, before going off to other medical
niversities. That he will reach all

Dr. Davis is a native and former in

His father, Dr. W. L. Davis, was for
many years one of the leading prac

try, and his brother, Dr. W. L. Davis,
who is yet a young man, is one of the
leading physicians here.
As a former citizen of Albany and

Tlie Columbus Southern railroad
will soon be in the hands of the Plant
system.
The ofilcinl notification of the deal
lias not yet been made publio, but
those in n position to know say that
this is the turn that things have taken,
ami that it will be announced officially
111 a few day8.
As is v tall known, the Columbus
Southern was built .under the superin
tendence of tlie Cliattnhooohee Brick
Company, a large amount of bonds
having been floated, and many funds
having been raised by popular sub
scription in the territory through
which tlie road passes.
Under the original agreement be
tween the bond-holders and the Chat
tahoochee Brick Company, tlie latter
company was to operate the road up to
a certain time, which time expires on
the 15th of September. As Is well
known, the road has become bankrupt,
and has not been able to clear running
expenses. The passenger trains were
taken off some time ago, and now
there is only one train per day, an ac
commodation train, n combination
freight and passenger.
Some time ago Mr. II. B. Plant, of
the Plant system,
Mnde nn Offer
to the Chattahooohee Briok Company
of 8800,000 for their Interest m the
road.
Mr. Plant was largely interested in
the tloating of tlie bonds by which the
road was originally built, and his lie
terest in tlie bonds, together with the
interest owned by the briok company,
would have given his system a full
controlling interest.
But the offer wns rejeoted at that
time, the brick company thinking they
could operate it to better advantage
until the expiration of their agree
ment, whioh goes Into eifeot next
month. It is not a settled fact whether
the offer lias been accepted now or
not. Either this trade has been mnde,
or Mr. Plant has obtained possession
of the road
Through Ihe Bond-Holders,
whose interest he Is in a position to
control. Suffice it to say that the road
has been contracted for by the Plant
system, anil the trade will go Into ef-
feot on the 15th of September, when
the agreement of the Chattahooohee
Briok Company expires.
The Plant system has desirfed to get
possession of the Columbus Southern
for some time, and they are now suc
cessful. After the middle of next
month the road will be operated by
the Brunswick and Western, whioh is
n part of that system, and it is prob-
nble that
Through Trains
will be put on from Brunswlok to Co
lumbus.
ThU is doubtless good news to the
people, who will be glad to know that
the rond will be in hands which will
give them good service. In its present
condition, run down as ft is, the ser-

The death of Mrs. Willis Began has

It seems terrible indeed tlint tills

In sooiety she wns n charming ele

NOI.ICITOR S. J. JONES
the Duties of Ills OtBee
To-Dnr.
Mr. S. J. Jones, the new County
Court Solicitor, entered on the duties
of his office Wednesday.
This office, the term of which is four
years, has just been vacated by Mr.
Jno. D. Pope, who has made an
able and efficient as well as a faithful
officer, and who, as Solicitor, has a rec*
ord to be emulated by his successors.
Mr. Jones takes up the insignia of
the office to-day, and has been busy all
the morning drawing accusations and
issuing warrants preparatory to the
holding of Judge., Jones’ court to
morrow.
Just before the appointment of Mr.
Pope, Mr. Jones was Solicitor pro tem
of the Court for a month, and is now
using some old warrants which con
tain the name of William Oliver, who
held the office at that time just prev
ious to his death.
Mr. Jones will make an able Solici

It is probable that the Plant system
will pull it up and better its condition.
Mr. C. M. Autry, agent of the Co
lumbus Southern here, has had offers
of several positions elsewhere. He
has aooepted a position offered him in
LaGrange, his old home, with the Ma
con and Birmingham division of the
Georgia Midland. Mr. Autry will
leave in a few days to take charge of
his new position.
Anything further in the way of in
formation concerning the deal will be

A Blank nnd Wklle Picnic.
Special to the Atlanta Journal.
Acworth, Ga., August 24.—A cir
cular posted at Aoworth in the Alli
ance store announces, in large, blaok
type, that there will be a grand pionio
and rally here on the 28th of August.
The colored people are cordially in
vited to come and bring their wives
and children and eat with their white
brethren, and hear that noble expo
nent of Third Partyism, Tom Watson,
promulgate and expound its doctrines.
The “riff-raff” and Negroes will eat,
drink and be merry next" Friday at
Acworth. But when the good cheer is
gone it is more than probable the col
ored brother will be also. For, to use
one of these mountain “niggers’” ex
pressions, “Ef dar is anything I db
hate it am a pc’ white man.”
The Negroes know which side their
bread is buttered on; they also know
there is precious little of it with the
Third Party.
The people of Albany, as well as
those along the entire line of the Co
lumbus Southern railroad, will doubt
less be glad to see the rumored change
in the management or operation of
that road confirmed and go into effeet.
The Plant System does a legitimate
railroad business, and keeps every
branch of its great system fully up to
the public demands. Under its man
agement there will no doubt be a
through daily passenger train from
Thomasville to Atlanta, taking the
Georgia Midland at Columbus.
The people of Albany will regret to
learn that they are to lose two good
citizens on the 1st of September.
Mr, James M. Grantham, who has
made Albany his home for tlie past six
years, and who is now with the La
mar Drug Company, will go to Ocala,
Fla., where he will continue In the
same business as a presorlptionist.
Mr. J. F. Bruns, who also leaves at
the same time for his old homo In Co
lumbia, S- C., has mnde Albany his
home for the past four years, and dur
ing that tune has been with Mr. Phil
Harris.
For the past year these two gentlo-
men have been room mates and close
friends.
Albany regrets to lose two suoh
good citizens, and hopes they can see
their way dear to return at an early
date.

be admitted to the college.
Mr. Davis has notified President J.

examination of these young ladies, and
has been Informed that the appoint

they will reflect credit upon Dough*

trnni tlto Atlanta Constitution.
Chained to his bed, John Davis died a
horrible death Saturday afternoon at his
home six miles south of the city.
He died of hydrophobia—an awful dis
ease which no human aid can relieve.
The Constitution of last Wednesday
gave a graphic account of Davis's suffer
ings. Nearly ten days ago he was taken
with the first symptoms of hydrophobia.
Each day he grew (vorsc and ltl3 suffer
ings were terrible to see.
John Davis was a well-to-do former
residing in the lower port of Fulton
county near south river, and six miles
from the city. He lived on tlie planta
tion known ns the McWillinms place,
and worked hard and lived in the com
fortable circumstances of a prosperous
farmer. He wob about forty years old
and had a wife and three children.
About a mouth ago he was walking
along the road near his home with a
friend. Suddenly n cat dragging a long
string after it darted across the road just
in front of them. Davis grabbed the
siring nnd drew tlie cat to him. Thr
eat was frightened and as booh as it catue
in reach of Davis it seized his thumb
viciously, and burled its teeth deep in
the flesh. It held the thumb In a vise
like grip, and try as he would Davis
could not extricate it. His friend put a
stick in the cat's mouth nnd tried to
force it open, but quick as lightning the
cat seized hold of Mr. Davis's remaining
thumb nnd held both of them between
its teeth. After much hard work Mr.
Davis finally got his fingers out of the
cat'B mouth The bite left a bad flesh
wound on each of Mr. Davis’s thumbs,
but they were quickly healed uo and he
anticipated no trouble from them.
He went along all right until last
Monday. He went.to the well to draw a
bucket of water and when he started to
take a drink of it, it choked him. He
fell to the ground in a fit, frothing at
the mouth.
It was a day or so before the doctors
could nuke out what the trouble was.
The symptoms were strange and unlike
those in any ordinary disease. Finally
they decided that it was a case of gen*
uine hydrophobia.
Davis's sufferings were something ter
rible. He was violent and when suffer
ing from convulsions frothed at the
mouth. He had to be chained to his
bed and continually suffered for water.
The casa was one of great interest to the
physicians, and many of them visited
Davis. All through the week his suffer:
lugs continued. Nothing would give
him relief aud late Saturday afternoon
he died. Death was a great relief for the
suffering man and those who had, .been
watching by his hedslde felt glad when
death put an end to his terrible pain.
He was burled at the family burying
ground of the Davises, near Hapeville,
yesterday afternoon. A great crowd of
people attended the bprial. The funeral
was conducted by Rev. B. F. Fulton, ex-
Representatlve of Clayton. An effort
was made to get a mudstone to apply to
the bite but it failed.

Now that' O. H. Ellington is Presi
dent of the State Alliance, and at the
head of the board of directors of the
Alliance Farmer, Its Third Party rot
will be more rabid and fallacious than
ever.
This, too, is the organ of the Alli
ance. The farmers read this paper in
preference to all others, and its doc
trines are in many respects tbelr polit
ical religion.
There are some, it is true, whose in
tegrity and common sense will teach
them the error of its ways, and whose
loyalty will keep them witli the Dem
ocratic party; but there are hundreds
of others who will believe that the
streets are going to be paved with
gold if the Alliance Farmer says so.
Consequently they find themselves in
the ranks of the Third Party.
The thing to do is for the Demo
cratic Alliancemen to get control of
this organ, and teach its readers a les
son. Show them how they are in
debted to Democracy for all they have
received, and how they can hope to
receive more only through Democracy.
