To-morrow will be editors’day at the Piedmont Exposition. The State Fair will open at Ma- con next Wednesday, and continue through the 30th inst. The Piedmont Exposition open, ed at Atlanta yesterday, October 15th, and will continne until No vember 1st. There is an upward tendency in the prices of all goods on which a high.rate, of import duty is placed by the tariff law. Gen. Belknap, Secretary of War under President Grant, died suddenly tit his office in New Or leans last Monday. Hon. A. O, Bacon has declined to.be a candidate for TJnited States Senator, in answer to a request from pierce county. that tlie ' It seems to us now combination against Gov. Gordon is strong enough to defeat his election to the United. States Sen ate. Requested Legislation. Col. James Atkinson, a promi nent republican of Savannah, su perintendant of the census of land mortgages in Georgia, died one day last week. The so-called “Jeffersonian dem ocrats” failed to secure a conven tion in the fifth district to nomi nate a candidate to oppose Col Livingston. Justice Miller, of the United States Supreme Court was stricken with parlysis at his home in Wash ington City lai3t Friday. He lin gered until Monday morning, when he died. Judge J. K. Hines of the Mid dle Superior court circuit, has an nounced himself a candidate for United States Senator, in response to a call from the Washington county alliance. It is apparent that the census' figures have been manipulated in Judge James M. Smith, of the the .politicalinterestof the repub Chattahoochee Superior court cir cuit, is regarded as a candidate for United States Senator, and it is believed he will soon make such an announcement publicly. Spain threatens to exclude Uni ted States products from its West Indies possessions if the republi can tariff duties are imposed upon the products that they desire to ship to this country—tobacco and sugar especially. The engagement of Miss Winnie Davis, “Daughter of the Confeder acy,” to Mr. Alfred Wilkinson, of Syraouse, New Tork, has been broken, by desire of Mrs Davis. Ill health is the cause given the public. Already tho iniquitous repub lican tariff law is working injury to the people. Merchants in near ly every section of the union are announcing that the prices of pro tected articles will be advanced within a short while. The Hotel Lanier will be head quarters for Georgians attending the state fair. Manager Crawford will be ready to accommodate as many as the house will hold, and all will receive courteous and prompt attention. Comfortable rooms and excellent table fare. Col. Livingston returned sev eral days ago from North Carolina, where Jie delivered several alliance political speeches. He declares himself satisfied with tho condi tion of affairs in that state, and says the 52d congress will contain between.$0 and 50 alliance mem bers. . Legislators are representatives, or agents, of the people, and their officinl acts should be in accord with the wishes of the people,when ever such wishes are known. It is entirely correct foi the people to make known their desires concern ing legislation, and whenever a re spectable number of them agree, their recemmendntious should re ceive careful consideration at the hands of their representatives. Our legislators have been elect ed, and within a few weeks they will begin the work of. legislation for the state of Georgia. The state constitution is the guide by which they must be "gov erned, and within it they ; 1 are re quired to work for the material in terests of all the people. By two reputable and represen tative bodies of Houston citizens onr representatives have b'eed rec ommended to secure, if possible, the enactment Of certain laws. The specific details of these de sired laws, are left to the discretion of onr representatives/general de mands only having been made: At a recent meeting of the Hous ton County Alliance, a resolution was adopted demanding of dur rep resentatives enlarged facilities for public schools in agricultural dis tricts. A similar demand was made by the grand jury that was in ses sion last week. The Same body of aliiancemen placed oh record their desire that the existing crop-lien-mortgage law be repealed, or so ‘Amended that such mortgages may be given by tenants only to landlords. These aliiancemen also entered their protest against the dealing in futures of any agricultural' prod ucts, and demanded legislation, state and federal,' against such im proper and iniquitous speculation. The grand jury further recom mends that a law be enacted giving tax assessors to Houston connty, and to all the counties of Georgia, if possible. Here we see demands have been made npon our representatives for the enactment of certain legisla tion. These demands are entirely in-order, and we are satisfied they are in accord • with the desires of a majority of onr thinking people. These recommendations are in the shape of commauds, so far as to cause our representatives to'con sider them carefully and faithful iy- , Of course we know that the peo ple of other counties moy not think as our people do apont these mat ters, but affairs are so arranged that each county can secure special legislation, when the interests of all -the counties cannot.be equalized. We sincerely hope our represen tatives will not flippantly disregard the recommendations that have been made. The Congressional Campaign. The legislators elected from about twenty counties may be barfed from participation in the organization of the next -.Georgia- legislature, on account of the fact that the returns have been direct ed to the speaker of’ the house, when the law says they shall be directed to the Secretary of State There being no speaker, no one will be authorized to .open the re turns until the legislature is organ ized. Bibb «<?dhty is among the counties infault, and. steps are. be ing taken to correct the error. lican party. The New York World charges thaff the census of thiafc state, and others that have a ma jority of democrats in their con. gressional delegations, have been fraudulently cut down iu order to prevent an increase of congress men under the next apportionment. It is also charged that the figures in republican states have -been fraudulently increased. Only three companies have so far entered the state militai-y prize contest that will take place at the Piedmont Exposition next Tues day: The Brunswick Riflemen, of Brunswick, Floyd Rifles, of Macon, Perry Rifles, of Perry/-'- The Co lumbus Guards are expected-to en ter. Hr. Gilbert, representative elect from Muscogee, says he will introduce in the next legislature a bill providing for ballot reform in Georgia, It will embrace a secret ballot, and practically disfranchise all who cannot read and write. This is certainly an era of letter writing in Georgia judging from the large number that have been written and published concerning the- approaching Senatorial elec tion by the legislature. It seems to be “anybody to beat Gordon” with the Alliance. That sort of a campaign has been' run several times in Georgia, aDd was defeated every time. Passenger trains or the Macon & Birmingham ..railroad are now run through from Macon to Atlan ta, On Tuesday, the fourth day of November next, ten congressmen will be elected to represent Geor gia i n't he 52nd congress. In each of the ten districts there is a democratic uominee, and it is the duty of every democrat to vote for the nominee of his district that day. Republican orders have been is sued, and there is a republican can didate in nearly every district. It is not believed that there is any re publican hope of success in any except the first and the ninth dis triets, and these will be supplied with a liberal corruption fand. However, it is hoped that a -foun dation for contest will be laid, and democrats unseated if there should be a republican majority in the next congress. The democratic duty is two-fold to cast a full vote for the nomi nees. First: The nominees are such by a majority vote of the demo crats in the several districts, and it is the positive duty of the dem ocrats to fully endorse the prima ry selections made. Second: There will be opposi tion in nearly every-district, and by a fall yote the demoo'rats should see to it that these candidates are elected by each majorities as to preclude the possibility of success ful-republican contest before the next congress, In the first district Hon. Rufus E. Lester, the democratic nominee, will be opposed by a republican candidate whose name is not now at our command. In the second district a oner armed pensioner, is the republican opponeut of the Hon. Henry G. Turner. In- the third Hon. C. F. Crisp is opposed by a negro, Peter O. Gib son. In the fourth the republicans have a candidate in the person of W. H. Johnson and a strong effort will be made to defeat the demo cratic nominee, Mr. C. L. Moses. Col. L. F. Livingston, in the fifth, has republican' opposition in the person of Judge Will Haight, a native of Maryland, now living and practicing law in Atlanta. In the sixth Hon. J. H: Blount is without,opgnsition. There is double opposition to Col R. W. Everett in the seventh, Dr. W. H. Felton, independent-, and Zach Hargrove, republican. Judge G. T. Lawson has no op position m the eighth.. Col. Thos. E. Winn, the demo cratic nominee in the ninth, is op posed by Rev. Thad Pickett, inde pendent; and S. A. Darnell, repub lican. m In the tenth there is no opposi tion candidate against Hon. Thos. E. Watson. Eyery democratic vote is needed in the contested districts, and they should be polled in the others as a matter of duty. Instructing for Senator; Mr. Editor: It will be ouly about four weeks before the next legisla ture of Georgia meets, which body will be of more than ordinary im portance, as a Senator must be elected. I see the members in some counties are being instruct ed by the alliance not to vote | for Gen. Gordon, for United States Senator, bnt no instructions are is sued as to who shall be voted for. This is all wrong. Our legisla tors were elected by the democrat ic party of Georgia, and should represent that party in electing a United States Senator. Our constitution says all public officers areuervants of the people, and are amenable to them. Not amenable to the instructions of few, with all the other democrats barred from a voice. In some instances men not al lowed to vote in a democratic pri mary have been prominent iu se curing recommendations to vote against Gov.- Gordon, in counties where a large majority of the peo ple favored his election. I think the legislators should be instructed for whom to vote for senator, bat the instruction should come from the democratic parly of Georgia. I think the press of the state should urge mass meetings, (or primary election) in each county, so that the democrats -of the state can say for whom they desire their representatives should vote. We have a rigt under'our organic law to demand this much, as freemen. 1 am opposed to black horses for senators. We find written in the good book that men lore dark ness rather than light,, because their deeds are evil. As a candi date, the white horse, he that comes out before the people, is much preferable to the dark horse who keeps under cover. More anon. Liberality. Denuard Mews. BY THE JUDGE. The State Fair.
