The Georgia democratic execu tive committee will probably bold a meeting soon, and call a state convention to meet in Atlanta the early part'of August. Hon. Chauncey M. Depsw and Hon. Abram S. Hewitt, of Haw York, spent last Tuesday in At lanta. They were entertained rablicly, and spoke in high terms iraise of the south. i ■ ■ Georgia editors got back rom Cuba Tuesday, and most of hem are by this time at their re spective homes. They will have something besides politics to write about during the next two weeks. The republican framers of the proposed tariff bill have decided to propitiate the southern farmers to the extent of placing jute on the free list. It is not unlikely that this “sop” is thrown out too late, as the southern alliance farmers have decided to use a substitute for jute as a covering for cotton bales- A destructive cyclone swept over portions of Kentucky, Ten nessee, Ohio and Indiana last Thursday night, destroying prop erty to the value of several hun dred thousand dollars, and killing and wounding several hundred people. Louisville, Ky., suffered more than any other point, where about 100 houses were destroyed or badly damaged, about 150 pei- sons killed, and a large number wounded. * COURT CONTRACTS. Fined for Contempt of Conrt, In Houston County Court last Monday Jim Harris, col. was ar- raingnedfor contempt of court in violating a court, in contract. The facts in the case were as follows: On March 8th last, Jim Harris enter ed into a court contract with Mr. J. M. Federick, to do general farm work for the term of 5-J months, This contract was read over and explained to both parties, signed in presence of Judge Riley, and then filed in the County Court, both parties thereby agreeing that . said contract should become judgment and decree of that court, and that the terms of the same should be enforced as otliei- judg ments and decrees of the court are enforced. Harris failed to appear at the time arranged by -the contract, moved with his family to another county, and refused to comply with the terms of the contract. Mr. Frederick made complaint to the County Court, stating that he had complied with the contract, and that Jim.Harris had not. An | attachment for contempt was is sued against Harris, in Washing ton county who was arrested by Bailiff Tuttle, and on this at tachment the case was tried. Dennard Hots. GATHERED BY THE JUDGE. it March has gone; went out mad kicking up a mighty dust went. The March of 1890 re minds me of the March of “Ye olden time” more than any that have noticed fpr years. Some of our best planters are through planting cotton,—while others are planting. I am not prophet, never prophesied, and am not going to prophesy now; but if cotton seed for planting pur poses are in demand and scarce be fore a stand is secured I shall not be surprised. Mr. J. F. Pearce had the mis fortune on last Sunday lo lose his pocket-book, but luckily found it. The hip-pocket, the devil’s scrap sack was the cause, of it. Maj. Colyer has bought himself a new organ, which dispenses with the use-of a cook. He has music for breakfast, for dinner and for supper. He thinks that if he could get an instrument that would fur nish clothing, he could soon get rich. The Maj. has been missing his pocket change for several days circumstances directed suspicion to one'youngster of doubtful de scent in his employ. Bringing his detective abilities into use, he soon located the thief and the money. I cannot close without thanking Mr. Norwood for his, to me, inter esting letter descriptive of Chiea- mauga and Missionary Ridge, Bragg’s Austerlitz and his Water loo. Though twenty-five years have passed since that disastrous evening, that solid mass of blue moving with the same coolness and precision as if on dress pa rade, is still fresh inmy memory. I don’t|think that any but an eyewit ness could understand any descrip tion that might be given of it. It is not often that I allow my mind to revert to the scenes of that war,but cannot help occasionally thinking of Missionary Ridge, and if Bragg had held it, what might have been? Mossy Hill Musiugs. DICTATED BY DOC. z The facts above stated, having been proven in court, Harris was committed to jail for 10 days for ' contempt of court, to be discharged upon payment of $26.50. Further, the prisaner was dered to carry out the contract ■previously entered into, beginning at the expiration of the ten. days imprisonment. However, Mr. Fred erick offered’to annul the contract upon the payment by Harris of -S1S.4S, the amount of damages he had sustained by the failure of .Harris to comply with the contract. Should Harris pay the damages -agreed upon, he will be absolved from all obligation to Mr. Freder ick or the court, otherwise he will be again- subject to punishment for contempt of court, if he fur ther refuses to comply with the terms of the contract. We understand that the con struction of the contract law shown by the above decision, is identical with that put upon it by each of Judge Riley’s predecessors. We are satisfied the judgment here shown is correct, else there would be no use for written con tracts. Whenever a contract is signed in the presence of a judge, and by full consent of both parties tiie contract becomes a part of the, record of that court, either party violating the terms of the contract commits a contempt of court, and becomes subject to a penalty of- fine or imprisonment for such of fense. In the ease above tried, if Mr. Frederick had violated the terms ,ke contract, he would have n subject to punishment for itempt. >urt contracts afford protection rties thereto, which pro- ! court i? obligated to to giva rties ewer 1 Yery pretty weather. News is very scarce this week. Corn is growing rapidly and looking nicely. As I stated in my other letter, oats are looking some better. They have come out wonderfully since my last letter. • Now I believe they will make a good crop. Mf. J. W. Wimberly paid a fly ing visit to the Central City last week. I observe that the thriving little village of Henderson feasted on drummers last week. Mr. B. C. Kendrick spent last Monday in Macon on a business visit. Mr. Will KilleD, of Unadilla, accompanied by his lovely sister, Miss Susie, spent last Saturday with his uncle-in-law, Mr. R. M. Davis. Mr. E. B. Till, of near Perry, spent -last Saturday with his fa ther, Mr. Calvin Till. The many friends of Mrs. Mag Tucker will rejoice to learn that she, after a long and serious spell of sickness, is now in a state of re cuperation. The school at Henderson is now in a flourishing condition under the the superb management of Miss Lizzie Kendrick . Mr. C. Pearce is having his dwelling painted, which adds great ly to its appearance. The. fishing business at Thur man’s mill is on a boom, but I ob serve that there is more fishing done than fishes caught. The draught or fishes is very small. The bridge across Thurman's mill- pond is in a bad condition. Mr. Thurman has done ail he could to it, but it still remains danger ous. I don’t wan’t to get into it as “Plow Boy” did. I desire only to make mention of the fact that it needs the attention of the conu- ty authorities. Road working.has been the or der of the day iu our section, and •nearly all the toads have been worked. Will our worthy road commissioners accept those lovely little pole bridges at the end of the Montezuma road? It seems very much like (Sheriff Cooper will not have an opponent during this campaign. Mr. J. 0. Keen left last Friday to pay a visit to his best girl at Reynolds, Ga. I learn that a cyclone passed by Mr. Bill Means’ farm last .week, and. took the top off of a negro house, and blew a stack of fedier away into the woods. April 1, 1890. The ladies and children who en joyed a picuic at the Perry Rifles armory last Tuesday, request us to extend their thanks to Capt. Davis for the use of the ’building so cordially granted. Hickory Grove. BY REPORTER. If you will allow it, I will try to let the world at large know that we are still among the Irvin This community is one of the best agricultural portions of the coun ty, and I might say the state. Yes, Hickory Grove and vicinity is wonderfully blest in climate, water and fertility of soil. A young man might travel over a great .por tion of these United States before finding a more desirable country than right here. We have some planters here who seem to appre ciate their desirable surroundings, and are showing their apprecia tion by devoting their best ener gies to make life whatit should be. Most of the farmers have very fair stands of corn up, and are now replanting the same. Quite a lum ber have been planting cotton the past week, and others will follow this week This provss that our farmers are well up with their work Not allowing their business to drive them, but driving their business. If there is any virtue in guano,'there should be a bountiful crop gathered next fall, for there has been an unprecedented amount of if used. We are having numerous “blows” just now, but as yet they have done little damage. Our worst one was on Thursday last, when it partially unroofed several negro houses for Mr. William Means,and blew down a great deal of timber in new grounds. . On last Sunday Rev. T. I. Nease gave the children a very interest ing talk upon the subject of “Fol lowing the multititude after evil.” He was met at the church by a large congregation, and most strict attention was paid to his discourse. At his next regular appointment the sacrament of the Lord’s Sap per will be administered. There will be an entertainment at Mr. W. R. Davis’ Friday night. Do'not know its nature. Mr. Bernard was sporting the “first, fairest flowers of spring,” Sunday. Wonder where they grew? Messrs. Will and Robert Killen, oE Perry, were here last Sunday. Wonder what brought them ? We do not yet know the nature of their visit, but hope they will come again. There is some talk (and I hope talk will not be all,) of resurrect ing the alliance lodge at this place. It is a great pity to let such a good thing die out, when all admit of its great need. Gentlemen, ap point a day to meet; reorganize, and begin your new life with .a de termination to make your lodge the banner one of the county. You can do it if you try. What ijabout organizing here a base ball team? Summer is com ing, and we country boys will want some amusement. What say you, boys? Meet with the alliance; join that; then for the base ball team? April 1st, 1890. -Perry narrowly escaped a disastrous conflagration last Sat urday morning. Judge A. Giles noticed smoke issuing from the shingles on the roof of the Masonic Hall building. Waiting and watching, he saw the flame spring up, and at once gave the alarm. A prompt response, and en ergetic work with ladders, buck ets and water, and the fire was put out before any material dam age resulted. The fire doubtless originated from sparks from the chimney, there beiug a liberal fire on the hearth in the barbershop, on the first floor of the build ing- ALLIANCE RESOLUTIONS, And the Olive Bill, Discussed by Hon E. A. liatiiews. In accordance with an order from the author, we reproduce the following arti cle from the Fort Talley Enterprise: Editor Ertebeeisi:: The Houston County Alliance passed a number of res- rlutions at its last- quarterly meeting, usingwords of severest censure for Hons- ton’s representatives and senator in the last legislature. The ground of the cen sure contained iu the resolutions was what was alleged to be _our vote npon the proposed measure, much spoken of count of every yoto I cast as a legislator, Mr. Dilworth Choate has been sentenced to one month’s impris onment, and to pay a fine of 8250 for contempt of court in New York City, the act of offence being that he secreted himself in a jury room in order to secure a sensational piece of news for the New York World, for which paper he has been a reporter for several years. Dilworth is a native of Perry, Ga., and his first newspaper service was performed in the Home Journal office. It is not unlikely that the punishment imposed will proveto Dilworth a financial bonanza. A plot to murder the Czar of of Russia by poison has bsen dis closed. The originator of the plot committed suicide. A Lady?s Perfect Conipanioji. Our new book by Dr. Jobn H. Dye, one of New Fork’s most skillful physicians, shows that pain is not necessary in child birth, but res alts from causes easily un derstood and overcome. It clearly proves that- any woman may become a mother without suffering any pain what ever. It also tells how to overcome and prevent morning sickness and the many other evils attending pregnancy. It is highly endorsed by physicians every where as the wife’s true private compan ion. Out this out; it will save you great pain, and possibly your life. Send two cent stamp for discriptive circulars, tes timonials and confidential letter in seal ed envelope. Address Frank Thomas & Co., Publishers, Baltimore, Md. of late as the Olive bill. I desire to beg your indulgence and the use of your col umns for a brief and candid discussion of this matter with my Tate constituents. I wish mainly to discuss the Olivo bill and its provisions as they would afreet tho people, but I wish also to give that notice to the resolutions of the county alliance that the prominence and res pectability of that body demand. These resolutions were introduced by Mr. A. P. Jones, of Henderson, who has, I believe, been an officer of ;he county al liance most of the time since its organi zation, and so should surely be posted on what has taken place in the body. These resolutions were passed, although not by any means unanimously, and were order ed published, and were published, in the Atlanta Journal and in the Alliance Fanner. Those resolutions were pre ceded hy a preamble about as follows: 1st. That it is the policy of the Hous ton county alliance that the Olive bill should have passed. 2nd. Thatthe alliance had instructed Houston’s representatives and senator to vote for the bill. 3rd. That said representatives and sen ator had disregarded the wishes of the alliance and voted to please themselves. Now follow the resolutions proper, about as follows: Eesolved 1st, That the representatives and senator in voting against the Olive bill voted against the interests of the people, etc. 2nd, That we—meaning the members of the alliance —will never Tote for eitlfer of the pres ent representatives or our senator for any office of honor or trust. Now, that last resolution beyond doubt was intended to be severe, and it unques tionably is pretty rough language. To justify such words by any one with knowledge of the English language there should have been^ome grave discovery of utter rottenness. Mr. Jones, when he arose with the resolutions in hand, ought to have been sure thet he had found some very dark and damning spots upon our moral record before he would feel bound to call upon a representative body to re solve that Houston’s late representatives and senator had been round unworthy of “honor and trust.” And the county alli ance should, in justice to itself, have been satisfied of tho absolute necessity there for before it would publish to the world its opinion that, tried by the test, the in fallible test of the Olive bill, we had been found wanting in those qualitie that make people worthy to be voted for for offices of honor and trust. Now, Mr. Editor, that these resolutions are unjust, let me show by the following facts: There are severalmistakes of fact in the preambles on which these resolu tions are based. Neither the Honston counl y alfiance, nor any alliance in the county, nor any other organization of Houston, ever instructed us on the Olive bill, or ever expressed any concerted views on the.subject that were ever pub lished, or that ever came to our knowl edge as representatives. It does seem that Mr. Jones should have known this, I commend to Mr. Jones the-propriety of finding facts npon which to found his resolutions. Facts make a much better bottom for sensational and slashing res olutions than even the bounding imagi nation of Mr. Jones. I have carefully in vestigated this matter since the publica tion of the Jones resolutions, and I find from correspondence with the secretaries of the county alliance that no such action or Instruction as Mr. Jones speaks of in his immortal resolutions were ever pass ed. Mr. Jones thus enjoys the honor of having committed the county alliance to the severest censure of representatives for not obeying instructions that were never issued. Nay, more; Mr. Jones tripped np the county alliance in refer ence to Senator Sanford forinducingit to condemn him for voting against the Olive Bill, when, in fact, the bill never saw the senate. Verily, Mr. Jones, with his reso lutions, would seem to be an unsafe lead er. I wish to state here, for myself, that I was never more surprised than by the assertion in the resolutions that we had been instructedin this matter. I had the honor to discuss the Olive Bill in a speech I made in April last at a dinner of the county alliance, and I frankly explained the state of my mind to be that of very grave uncertainty as to the wisdom of the provisions of the bill, although the object professed by the bill was one that enlist ed my heartiest approval, being an ob ject that I would ever strive by practica ble means to promote. And privately with many prominent citizens did I dis cuss this measure; with alliancemen, and others, and found as much divergence o: views among alliancemen and farmers as among merchants and doctors. So far from hearing of any concerted views by the alliance on the subject, I was informed by a prominent county al liance official thatthe alliance was op posed to tho bill, as they thought it a harmful measure. Now, Mr. Editor, I do not wish to be understood as abusing Mr. Jonas, or as lecturing the alliance. I have respect for Mr /ones, although he does not seem to think it important to know anything about the facts of the case when he starts out with his abusive resolutions. I havo the very highest respect for the county alliance, and think that some of them were betrayed into what l am sure they themselves wi 1 ! acknowledge to be hasty and unjust action in this matter. One word more. I have waited several weeks to write this letter. I have been expect ing that tfiese resolutions would be pub lished in the county papers, and being busy, I concluded to await their publica tion here before replying, as I desired to make my letter a reply for all who might read them. They were immediate ly printed, and we had no intimation that we were to be so severely characterized until their appearance in the Atlanta Journal and the Alliance Farmer. It is hard to believe that many of the men who voted for the resolutions fully real ized their scope. If they did intend all that the language of the resolutions im plies, and if they were willing to public ly declare of men having heretofore the reputation of being reasonably honest, hat tliey were unworthy of honor and trust, and that without giving them op portunity to explain the action under criticism, I do not care to waste your Epace in appealing to them for anythin, like a fair and dispassionate hearing, these men, having readin the sensational press, abontrampant bribery of tbelegis lature, believing everyirresponsible squib they saw, have reached the conclusion that all the legislature were bought, and that particularly the members from Houston sold out to the railroads, I do not address this letter to them, for they are too prejudiced and too narrow to give any credit to what-I may say. I feel that it is right that I should give an ac- if my people require it, and 1 am not complaining of any criticism that might be made, however severe, of the wisdom or unwisdom of any action or any vote of mine in the legislature. All I ask is fair chance to explain before being un conditionally condemned; nor am I seek ing to propitiate votes with a view to the coming election. While not a candidate for the legislature, or any other office, am and expect evertobe a candidate for the’ esteem and confidence of right-think ing and generous people of all classes. Having attempted to dear away what I conceived to bo these necessary preliininaciea, I propose to briefly exblain whj I did not vote for th.j Olive bill. "What is the Olive bill? Many people wlio discuss this bill know only that it is a bill designed to p're. vent railroad monopoly aud oppression. They say the bill professes to help the people, therefore the people mnst stick to the bill. How, Mr. Editor, this were all there is to the Olive bill it would have been a plain matter as to how we should have voted. But in legislation every intelligent and conscientious man must look carefully to sea if .proposed la .v will accomplish the purpose proposed by the author. *• Better pass no laws tban bad laws” is a favorite maxim with thinking men Hothing is more common in legislation than for bills, proprosed ior the very best purposes, defeated overwhelmingly by the intelligent, prac tical sense of the legislature, because -they would not work out what their authors design as their purpose- How. I verily believe that there has nev er been in Georgia a legislature that was posed of more thoroughly auti-monopoly men than the legislature that adjourned last October, am sure that it passed more, and more stringent lawp, for the regulation of railroads than any legis lature in Georgia’s history. Ho legislation that was proposed for regulating railroads, for control!’ ing rates, for imposing taxation npon them, for re quiring prompt shipments and prompt settle, meats, etc., was defeated unless -dearly impracti. eabie. It has been attempted in every legislature since 1878 to tax railroads. This was never accom plished until the present legislature did it. By this law railroads pay county taxes in every county through whichr'lliey paso upon their property and roadbed, just as other citizens*.^ Houston eounty will get a large addition to its taxes from this source. Of coucsethe railroads fought this bill before the committee in every way possible, but passed by a large majority. This legislature also passed a law extending tho powers of the Railroad Commission vastly by what is known as the joint rate bill, so that now the Commission can abso lutely control and fix rates over any number of connecting roads in tho state. Over the very strongest protest from the railroads this bill be came a law by the almost unanimous vote of the legislature. Those two acts alona marked a great advance in railroad legislation, but in addition the*e were passed a number of bills to require railroads to provide more speedy and more equita ble methods in their dealings with the people, which I will not now consume space in recounting in detail. now, Mr. Editor, I am aware • that I nave tres passed sufficiently upon ynur courtesy for unco, but with your consent I beg leave to complete this letter in one farther communication in your next issue, in which I will wish to discuss the Olive bill proper, and give the reasons that influence l my vote and that of my colleague, Mr. Holtzdaw.
