A dispatch from Atlanta dated Sept,.

the populists have organized in each “stirring mil

nights in going about among the colored
people, making a house tohouseenuvass.

A Big Blow Out.
Bulloch Times:
There was a big populist “to-do” out
this Way last Saturday—a tremendous
big affair ! In the morning it leaked out
Col. It. Lee Moote and Mr. Tillman
would speak to the “colored brothers”
a little house in the back-woods. A
white democrats went and found
them there with about twenty-five or
negroes, including women and
and part of them democrats,
together with five white leaders.
At the appointed hour Col. Moore rose
and spoke telling t!*.e colored men
about how hard the times were, and ex¬
plaining that the democrats were respon¬
sible for it all. He also declared to them
that the democrats had done them no
good, aud had been false to every trust;
thev had made them great promises and
bad not fulfilled them. Mr. Tillman fol
lowed him on the same line of abuse of
the democrats. We suppose this was a
rousing meeting. Democrat.

A Short Talk About Business.
Business talks arc most interesting
when they are short . You are a business
man and cannot, lose jour time. We
realize that, and woflftt bore you bj r say¬
ing too much. ,
TV ha t a powerful argument we could
enter into by tellingyou something about
the low prices of our materials. Tiiej'
were never lower' during the history of
t he Door, Sash and Blind Jtrade— and we
are making unusually deep cuts in our
figures during these hard times. ;
If we cannot save money for you we will
not ask for your patronage. But we
know what we ure talking about. We
know that you are alive to every advan¬
tage which may be gained in your other pur¬
chases. SVrite for prices—or any
information in our line. Yours truly,

I will say to the farmers and merchants
that I now have orders for col ton and
will buy freely, giving highest limits,
spot cash, no trade, no drafts but money
l»aid you in Statesboro. I am prepared
to buy any amount in one day. I am
having Sea-island cotton seed selected on
the islands, as there is great, need of them
in this country, and it, will be well for all
parties who wish to obtain them to place de¬
their orders with me, and have them
livered later for planting season and profit
thereby. Respectfully, R. Lee.

who have been reading this filthy sheet.
We know many in the ranks of the demo¬

democrats among us. We till want re¬
form in our government; we all wish to
accomplish the same end, and as long as
we tolerate the publication of such a

Nothing of interest to communicate
this week. TIio universal depression of
trade and low prices has reached here as
well as any place else, While labor is
plentiful, and cost of living very low,
some very close figuring has to be done
so as to keep trade moving; and any one
who has meat in the house and some
meal in the barrel ought to be thankful
they do not live in a city where hundreds
of families would be thankful of having
the same. Truly the old adage is cor¬
rect: One half the world does not know
how the otiier half lives. I)o not think
from what I have said that I wish to be
placed on the list of chr onic growlers.—
have too sunny a build for that; and will
say that I hear of arrangements being
made for winter work, territory staked
off, hands promised work, and from arti¬
cles in leading papers I read the outlook
is a little more promising now than three
months ago.
A guest of ours this week was Mr. Mil
ton McArthur, a stiller of good repute
from Daisy, Tattnall county. The pur¬
port of his visit was very plain,—even a
blind nmn could comprehend his object.
Close to this [dace there resides a youug
lady who looks well and can preside over
any man’s household, aud from what was
seen any one could draw the conclusion
that Mr. McArthur’s visit meant business,
[fc is astonishing to thiuk that young
gentlemen from a distance can come here
and pluck the roses from uuder our
young men's noses! H. D. L. and R. L.
C., wake up, or you will certainly get left.
Why is it that a company cannot be

AT THE NATION’S CAPITAL.
A Week Among Our National Law
makern—Matters of Interest.
A cheerful feeling prevails at democrat¬
ic headquarters, as may be judged by the
talk of Secretary Lawrence Gardner, who
said: “The result in Maine is hardly
what we expected, considering the char¬
acter of the tight made by the republi¬
cans, the amount of money spent, and
the speakers of national reputation
thrown into the State. When compared
with the little done by the democrats, it
strikes me that the vote is ridiculously
small. The democrats in Maine had
nothing to lose, whereas the republicans
had everything to gain, not only in keep¬
ing up their majorities, but in increasing
them for t he effect elsewhere. But back
of it, all is the personal State pride of a
presidential boom. Personally, I teei de¬
lighted with the resul t, as I firmly belie.ve
that it will have the same effect on the
democrats that the democratic vote in
that State in 1880 had on 'the republi¬
cans. The democrats of the United
States have determined to elect a major¬
ity of the members of the next House.
They have not been rainbow-chasing with
the hope of securing auy votes from eith¬
er Maine or Vermont, and are not to be
panic-stricken by auy so-called phenone
nal votes, showing great percentages of -
so-called republican gains in republican
strong-holds.”
Hon. Clifton R. Breekenridge, U. S.
Minister to Russia, was at the State de¬
partment this week to receive his final in¬
structions. He expects to sail from New
York on the 20th inst., and will stop in
London a few days as the guest of Am¬
bassador Bayard before going on to St.
The democratic campaign text book is
ready for delivery, and it is a “hummer,”
as might have been expected from the
fact of Representative Bynum, of In¬
diana, having been its chief editor and
compiler. The book is not for generAi
distribution, but is intended to furnish
ready information on campaign issues to
speakers, editors and political writers. It
is supplied by the Congressional Cam¬
paign Committee.
Secretary Carlisle is daily proving that
he is the right, man in the right place.
Here is the opinion of a New York tariff
lawyer whose jiersonal interests are being
made to suffer by the Secretary’s acts:
“The prompt and liberal interpretation
Secretary Carlisle is placing upon the dis¬
puted features of the new tariff is cansing
grief among New York lawyers. You ean
not appreciate the importance of Secre¬
tary Carlisle’s action unless you are
aware that many New York lawyers
made large fortunes out of the almost
endless litigation caused by the interpre¬
tation of the McKinley tariff by republi
can Treasury officials. I don’t know
whether Mr. Carlisle was aware ol this,
but judging from the promptness with
which he has decided how certain provis¬
ions of the new law shall be construed by
the customs officers, I should suspect
that he was. As a matter of fact, he is
saving the government thousands of dol¬
lars, even if he is knocking the lawyers
out of business. And he is doing that
with such easy freedom that about the
only thing he has left them to fight over
is the question as to whether goods im¬
ported between the 1st and the28thda.ys
of August shall be rated under the old or
new law, the first being the date stated in
the bill for the new law to take effeet and
the last being the date upon which it ac¬
tually became a law. The Secretary has
ruled so decisively and quickly on the
leading features that the courts will have
practically nothing to do under the pres¬
ent law.”
U. S. Treasurer Morgan returned to
Washington this week from a six weeks
tour of I he Pacific coast. Mr. Morgan
brings good reports, both political and
business.
From a business point of view the ca¬
lamity wail, which the republican cam¬
paign managers have adopted as a party
trade-mark, is indefeasible and much to
be regretted, as it will unquestionably
have the effect of retarding the growth of
the business revival now beginning to be
felt throughout the country; but from a
partisan political point of view, it is u
mighty good thing for the democratic
party, os it will convince the doubting
voters that the men who are directing the
republican party prefer a continuance of
the business stagnation, for which they
are primarily responsible, to a revival of
business which would be properly credit¬
ed to the democratic party, and will there¬
fore be worth thousands of votes to the
democratic party from those who are too
patriotic to support a party that is wil¬
ling to talk down the business of the
country forthe purpose of trying to get
the votes of thoughtless or ignorant peo¬
ple. A party that has no better argu¬
ment to offer to get votes than the busi
nees misfortunes of the people, for which
its own legislation was responsible, will
never be returned to power in this coun¬
try, unless the people have much less
“ are credited vvwtr havmg.
