In .response to previous aiuioance-
meut, the Farmers’ Aiiiauee of
Houston.r—.ucy'met in convention
a; Ferry at 10 o’clock last Tuesday
morning. The convention contiu
ned in session for two hours, and,
of coarse, none bnt allianceinen
were admitted.
Previous to the opening of the
meeting, the editor of the Hohe
Journal approached several prom-
nent members of the alliance and
signified his desire to publish
whatever action the meeting in
tended for publication. After the
adjournment we were told fay ev
ery allianceman approached that
there was nothing for publication.
We were reliably informed, how
ever, that the alliance endorsed
one gentleman as a suitable per
son for the members of the order
to support for senator for this dis
trict, and two for members of the
Honse of Representatives to repre
sent Houston ccunty. This endorse
ment was held to be subject to
democratic nomination,.'and no
member of the alliance was con
sidered absolutely pledged to vote
for the gentlemen named.
We were further informed that
a committee was appointed to no
tify the gentlemen named of the
action of the alliance, and if they
consented to the use of their names
in the connection mentioned, then
a public announcement was to be
made by authority of a resolution
passed, but for the present with
held from the public. We under
stand the convention was com
posed of about 40 delegates, and
though about 100 alliaucemen were
present, none but the delegates
were authorized to vote.
As these statements are made
from hearsay, we do not vouch for
their absolute accuracy, and if
anything is incorrectly stated, w.e
are ready to make a strictly accu
rate statement in accnd with the
official petiou of the alliance, when
so informed by authority of any
delegate participating.
The announcement oE candidates
for the Seuato and House of Rep
resentatives which appears in an
other column by authority - of
“Democrats,” purporting to be the
work of “a large and enthusiastic
meeting of democratic voters,
calls for some explanation.
There were two meetings in
Perry Tuesday—the county alli
ance, by delegates, and the county
executive committee--both com
posed of democrats. The alliance
meeting took the action upon which
this political announcement was
based, but that meeting was called
and held as an alliance conven
tion strictly, not as a meeting of
democratic voters. None but al-
liancemen were allowed in the
room, and it is not fair that an act
performed by the alliance in se
cret session should be given to the
people as the work of “a large and
enthusiastic meeting of democratic
voters.”
We write this in behalf of dem
ocratic unity, and not in favor of
any candidate or candidates for
the legislature.

The minutes of the last court
were read and confirmed.
The abjections of Mrs. Hampton
a part of the Dr. Edgeworth and
Houser’s mill road, was taken up
and discussed; and as no compro
mise or agreement seemed proba
ble, a motion was made to recon
sider and rescind all the proceed
ings heretofore had on the same
by this, together with the judg
ment rendered on the same, which
was agreed to by the court, and
the whole proceedings heretofore
had on said road are wiped out.
A petition was received and filed
i i office, signed by Wiley Leverett,
M. F. Etheridge, W. D. Tharp, J.
H. Bateman, Ira Aiken and oth
ers, to remove the voting precinct
from Busbyville, in the Upper 5th
district, to Centerville (Hattie P.
O.) upon the grounds that the
court ground for said district has
already been moved there, and
that it is nearer the center of pop
ulation, and more convenient.
A petition was filed in office,
signed by H. E. Murray and otlk
ers, to establish a public road from
the Dr. Edgeworth place io A J.
Houser’s mill, which will lake its
regular course.

In accord with the published
request of the recent meeting of
Houston county democrats, the
newly-elected executive committee
met at the court house this May
1S9Q, for organization, and for the

The Perry Sunday School Picnic.
The members of the Perry Sun
day schools, with a number of their
friends in and near Perry, enjoy
ed their annual picnic last Friday,
at the Giles hammock, just beyond
the southwestern limit of the town
The hammock is a thickly-wooded
tract of land, covering fifteen
twenty acres. A portion of this
had been cleared of the under
brush for the occasion, and seats,
tats, tables and swings arranged.
The crowd began gathering at
about nine o’clock, and by eleven,
more than two bandied people
were freely enjoying themselves.
There was no arranged, pro
gramme, and each one sought and
found pleasure in accord with the
inclination prompting. Mr. T.
J. Anderson had charge of the
lemonade stand, and during the
day about 80 gallons of that bev
erage was disposed of. This fact
is sufficient evidence that it was
good. About half that amount of
ice-water was also used.
The children.were happy, play
ing such games as “tap the rabbit,’
“many, many stars in the. heavens,’
etc. The swings were also freely
used, and many “saplings” bent
down served the boys as “horses.”
To the older people the occasion
was fall of social enjoyment,
watching the merry-making of the
ckildern, and listening to their
joyous laughter, completely unre
strained.
Dinner time came in due order,
and all were ready for it An at
tempt to describe that dinner
would be altogether useless. It
was altogether unsurpassable
variety, quantity and management,
and more than two-fold abundant
for those who partook of it. It
was equal to the best culinary
skill of the ladies who prepared it,
and in that lfoe our ladies have no
superiors.
The picnic concluded at about
4 o’clock, some going home ear
lier. It was a complete success as
ud occasion of plensure. Howev
er, very general regret was ex
pressed that the Havsliallville and
Montezuma schools could not be
present, in response to the invita
tions extended. This fact, though,
was due to tho failure of these
schools to secure transportation.
Our people were happy then,
and are happy now, that they were
enabled, by the blersings of Prov
idence to enjoy such a day.
There are..many who desire that
some arrangement be made to
convert the hammock into a regu
lar park.
Wellston Dots*
We are not making much fuss,
but our town is gradually getting
a boom. We are expecting
very soon to have a variety works
here, as we learn it has been taken
hold of by three or four reliable
parties who purchased lots here
last week.
This section was vistied by a se
vere hail and rain storm last Sun
day afternoon, which did much
damage to the young cotton and
watermelon plants. Messrs. Paul
Frederick and Bill White’s entire
crops are reported almost rained.
Our friend, G. G. White, who
was reported to be in the field
against onr efficient sheriff, Milt
Cooper, was in town yesterday, and
I feel safe in saying he is not com
ing out for that office, as he was
very clean shaveD. The report
that he-was in the field was started
by some one saying he was learn
ing to pull his whiskers like Mr.
Cooper.
Miss Mattie Watson, of Macon,
who has been visiting relatives
here and at Bonaire, returned
home Sunday. Come again Miss
Mattie, there’s some one loDging
for- your smiles, and to hear yoar
soft words again.
We are glad to note those who
have been on the sick list for the
last few days are improving.

—Immediately after the adjourn
ment of the meeting of the demo
cratic executive committee, Rev.
Mr. Hunnicut, of Coweta county,
was introduced to the assembled
citizens, and then and there he de
livered a most excellent address.
He is a candidate for State Com
missioner of Agricnltunre, and his
address declared him to be a gen
uine friend of the farmers, whose
interests are the especial care of
the office he hopes to fill. He
The bafbacue was a grand suc-
cuccess. Everybody had a good
time. One thousand more men
could hare easily been supplied
with choice bits of pork, mntton
and beef. Everything was done
to please and we are glad that a
satisfactory smile crowned the
face of avery visitor. The barbe
cue is here to stay, and we annonce
that on Tuesday the 13th of May,
will again be open to friends at
Bonaire, on the Georgia Southern
& Florida railroad. On that day we
propose to have a grand barbecue,
enough for 1,500 people, and will
give all present the chance of buy-
a corner lot in that thriving
village, twenty-two miles from
Macon, and in the splendid agri
cultural belt of Houston, occupied
by a host of first-class farmers.
The Watsons, the Sassers, Smiths,
Thompsons and Feagins, all bear
testimony to the fertility • of the
farms and healthfulness of the
climate. Bonaire is one of the
best points on the road. Keep
your .eye on it, for it is sure to grow.
Five years from now lots will rule
from §500 to SI,500 that you may
get at this sale- for a nominal snm.
Don’t be a clam, keep up with the
procession, and you will grow rich
in just the proportion that you in-
yesf in these new towns.
Wellston is now on a boom; over
twenty houses will go np at once.
The same will be said of Bonaire
after this sate. Put a few hundred
dollars in this town ana you will
be pleased with the results.
Mr. George M. Feagin is now
organizing a company for a cotton
seed fertilizer company, also a'

Subscirbe for the Home Journal.
News scarce this week.
We are having a fine raiu this
morning, which is much needed on
the oat crop. Crops are lookin
well in this section of the county.
Mr. R. G. Watson will soon have
Judge King’s store house at Bo
naire completed.
Two of the most selfish men
about fish in this community are
R. G. W. and A. C. B. They bring
out- a load twice a week and carry
them home, and then close their
doors for fear that their near neigh
bors will smell them cooking.
Well, let them rip; Messrs. "J. M.
P. and J. N. B. are going to put
in some fish baskets, and the first
mess they catch they will invite
these gentlemen to sapper, and
will bet my old hat they will come,
just as if they hadn’t seen a fish
in six months. The doors of the
latter gentlemen are always open,
except in the warmest days of
campaign, when they have to keep
them closed to keep the candidates
out ,
J. M. Pitts has the best melon
vines in this section. I don’t hear
anything of the Judge’s nail keg
melons now-a-days.
I have always heard that “the
larger the ears the better the hear
ing,” but it is not so in telling,
know some with very small ears
who can tell more than anybody
else, whether, they hear it or not.
The man who wants to have some
thing to do with everybody’s busi
ness, is the man whom no oue
wants to nttend to his bnsiness.
Misses Ola and Claud Barker,
two of Bonaire’s charming young
ladies, spent a few days last week
with relatives at Tivola. ,
A man can't entertain company
and chop cotton. A gentleman
drove up to Mr. J. N. Barker’s
field the day he started to chop
cotton. Mr. Barker’s whole soul
and mind was on what he was
doing, and nothing else. The gen
tleman said: “Good morning, Mr.
Barker.” Mr. B. replied: “Ju9t
started to-day.” “How is yonr
health, sir?” “I had three hands,
but one of them got sick.” “How
is your family, this morning?” “I
won’t get through with my old
cotton this week.” “Well, I will
be going, good-day, Mr. Barker.”
“Yes, I would be glad to have a
good rain on my oats.” The gen
tleman went his way, and Mr.
Barker kept chopping.
I heard a man say the day after
the send storm that he was gomg
to sow cabbage seeds in bis eyes.
It is not likely that his cabbages
will suffer for woik.
Candidates are so polite we
don’t know what to do with them.
I don’t wonder that there are so
many candidates, and that they love
to canvass the county so long.
Those who get beat get two or
three months board for nothing,
and that is right good pay; while
those that are lucky enough to get
the election make a big thing of
it. If the candidates who visit
this section, coming from Perry or
Fort Yalley, will, after passing the
Bivins place, take the left hand
road, leading to F. M. Walker’s,
they will find him at the well near
his house, where they will be wel
comed to just as much, good water
as they can drink, and Mr. W. will
entertain them daring their stay
with him.
We are sorry to note that Mrs.
Brown, mother of Mr. C. E. Brown,
is quite sick.
