To-morrow the Republican conven
tion of the Second Congressional Dis
trict will hold high carnival In Al
bany.
Ask the average Dougherty county
Republican about the matter and he
will-tell you seriously, “Nobody don’t
know what dey’s gwine ter do,” but
that’s all Republican guff.
Why has Colonel Buck, the State
Republican boss, been issuing his open
letters to the Negroes of the State, and
the other Republicans, advising them
to vote the straight Third Party tick
ets and no other? Why have Major
BrlmbeiTy and the Republican lenders
In the other Congressional districts
been ndvising the Negroes to take this
course? We venture that this predic
tion will not come far amiss: the Re
publicans in this district will fuse
with tlm Third Party with no other
object in view than to defeat the Dem
ocrats—if they onn. Ay, there’s the
rub!

Receiving information that Mnjor
Brimbcrry hud written to several Ne
gro Republicans in tills district ad
vising them to vote the Third Pnrty
ticket, n Hi:ha1.1) reporter saw Major
Brimberry this morning ami question
ed him In regard to the fnntter.
“Yes,” said Major Brimberry, “the
statement Is true. 1 have sent letters
to the Republicans in every county in
the district, advising them to put out
no candidates of their own, hut to sup
port the Third Party ntiinlnees
strnlghtput, except In the National
election, in which they will, of course,
cast their ballots for Harrison and
Reid.”
“What are your reasons for advising
them to support the Third Party nom
inees?”
“Well, my only politics nre a free
bnllot. and a fair count, and it is to se
cure this that I ndvised them ns I did.”
“Are you not satisfied that previous
elections have been conducted fairly?"
asked the reporter.
“No, sir, I am not,” replied Major
Brimberry. “The Republican party
has ..a majority of about 400 votes in
Dougherty county alone, and Hie ma
jority in the district is over 1,800, and
yet they have, been going Deinocratlo.
I believe if we can poll our vote with
the Third Party, and get Third Pnrty
managers at the polls, we will get a
fair election and will poll a larger
vote in the district than the Demo
cratic pnrty. That’s why I advised
them to take the course that 1 did.”
Mlraw. Will Tall
which way the wind blows, and this
is a pretty fair sample of the condition
of things in several sections of the
State.
The Republicans hold forth to-mor
row, and things look mightily like the
Third Party is holding a li'gh hand
with them.
The more conservative of the Ne
groes, however, are taking a different
view of tile matter. Bill Pledger,
Jack Carter and other prominent Ne
gro Republicans are advising them to
vote with the Democrats in the State
election and in elections where
no Republican candidates are in
the field. They give as their reason
the educational and material advan
tages whioh the Negroes have derived
under Democratio rule in the State.
The better classes of NegroeB will
know on which side their bread is but
tered when the time comes.

Ever since the arrest
McClung, the butcher, and Reddick
Jones, colored, on last Tuesday, the
charges against them being for cow
stealing, a lively Interest has been
manifested in the case by many.
MeClung’s case is to be tried before
the Superior Court, he having waived
commitment trial and been released
under bond, but the case against Jones
was tried before Magistrate Greer
this morning. The evidence was long
and somewhat conflicting at times,
but after a careful examination of all
the points, the case against the defen
dant was dismissed.
Mr. McClung is confident that he
will also come clear when ins trial
comes off, and his many friends sin
cerely hope and trust that such is th^

The Republican convention of the
Second Congressional district met in
the Court house, pursuant to the call
of Col. Colored Islimnel Lotion, Chair
man, at 12 o’clock to-day.
It was a very weak and tame affair,
ami only eight out of the fifteen coun
ties of tile district were represented.
Postmaster Brimberry, of Albany,
got 111 tile saddle at the start and kept
tile lead.
Col. Colored Ishmaet Lonon called
the meeting to order, and Dr. Peacock,
the Postmaster ut Bainbridge, was
elected chairman nnd Postmaster
Brimberry secretary.
Postmaster Peacock confessed tlmt
he was entirely ignorant of parlia
mentary law, and protested tlmt he
was utterly inborn potent to preside
over a convention (a protostntio'n or
confession tlmt proved to he entirely
truthful), hut J. 0; Pew, of Thomas,
who Imd uninitiated him,insisted upon
Ids coining to the scrnteli, nnd lie final
ly did so.
The chairman was like a steer In a
china shop from Hie start, and didn’t
know wlmt to do nor how to do It, hut
had the redeeming trait of honesty,
not to say easy virtue, nnd resignedly
said, “Brethren, proceed.”
The crowd was cold, and matters re
fused to take shape for n while. The
bosses did’t want to say much, and the
other fellows were afraid.
Piunlly, the chairman, in his bland-
ike way, called on “Brother Brimberry
to say something.’’ Brother Brim
berry, In return, railed attention to
the fact that Dr. C. IV. Arnold was ill
the Imll, and called upon him to ad
dress the convention. Dr. Arnold
went Inside the bar,and, after remind
ing the audience that he was not well,
proceeded to speak. His remarks were
upon rather a broader text than had,
evidently, been expected. He said that
lie had not been consulted about cnlf
ing tills convention; that he had had
nothing to do with it, and might have
ndvised differently hail lie been coil
suited. But since the convention lmd
met under oall of the olinlrmnp of the
district committee, he saw no-reason
why they should not aid. He brithched
off on a discussion of the tnrlff, nnd
said lie wished lie were well and tlmt
he hud an intelligent audience so tlmt.
he might d|scl(ss the great subject.
He declined to say anything that cuing
be construed as an effort to influence
tile action of this convention with
reference tu a Congressional candidate.
At tlie conclusion of Dr. Arnold’s
remarks, Sir. Brimberry took the floor
nnd offered the following resolution:
Resolved, That we, the Republicans
of the,Second district of Georgia, in
dorse the candidate of the People's
Party, Dr. I. II. Hand, of Baker county,
since that party is pledged to “a free
ballot and a fair count,” u pledge
whioh covers the issue and the one
which is superior to all other issues
with us. And we will vote for him.
nnd use all honorable means to seoure
his election.
The resolution was adopted without
a dissenting voice.
At the invitation of the chairman,
Mr. Brimberry then addressed the con
vention. His manner was nervous
and excitable. He seemed to feel
more than he could express; but the
burden of IiIb* remarks consisted in a
declaration of his devotion to Repub
lican principles and a demand for “a
free election and a fair count.” See
ing a number of Democrats in the ball,
he took occasion to refer to his past
reoord as a Confederate soldier and
to a speech which he made at
Camilla two years ago, whioh some of
the Demooratlo papers had character
ized as “Inflammatory and Incendi
ary.” He had said nothing then
whioh he was afraid to reiterate to
day, and the things he had said then
he would repeat in ihe presence of
anybody. He concluded by deolarlng
that the only issue in this contest was
“a free ballot and a fair count,” and
since the Third Party had pledged
itself to this “reform” he was in favor
of supporting that party’s candidate
in this district for Congress.
Marion Oliver, a well-known Negro
citizen, rose to ask Mr. Brimberry a
question, and was Anally silenced with
the retort, “Just let one of my own
color ask me a question, and I will
answer him!”
Two or three colored delegates seem
ed disposed to talk, but the chairman
informed them that he “had to leave on
this afternoon’s train, and time was
short.”
Mr. Brimberry then promptly moved
to adjourn, and the chairman as
promptly bit the stand with the gavel
three times and said, “Adjourned I”

The Injunction against the Sam
road,taken out by the Central before
Judge Bower, has now been trans
ferred to tlie United States Court.
The reason for this was that the re
ceiver of the Central was appointed in
Judge Speer's court, and he now has
the direction of tlie court proceedings
in whioh the Central is plaintllf.
The papers were served on E. N.
Clark, agent of the Sam road here, on
yesterday nftertioyn, signed by Judge
Speer, who Is now at Mt. Airy, re
straining Hie Sam road from building
Into the city nlmig Its proposed lines
until after the Injunction could be
heard.
The injunction, as transferred, is
in tlie same form as it was in Judge
Bower’s court, restraining defendant
from crossing Central’s right of way
on account of alleged damage to prop
erty.
The time for the hearing of the in
junction was left blank, so that it
could he tilled out as agreed upon by
the different lawyers and ofliolals con
cerned (n the case. Judge Speer line

if lime is not agreed upon soon he will
set, the day.
The Injunction will probably oper
ate until the parties concerned come
to a settlement or ail agreement of
sotno sort, and just as like as not tills
wlli.be done. President Hawkins, of
the Sam road, will confer with Re
ceiver Comer, and, perhaps, a settle
ment will be brought about without
lltigntlon.
As yet, the matter rests with the
courts, nnd the Sam road still lingers
just outside Albany.
