RIGHT TRIUMPHANT.
Houston Gives au Emphatic Ma-
joiity for Democracy, Goad
Government and Justice.
Prior to the opening of the polls
yesterday morning, there was some
apprehension that a large propor
tion of the colored people would
vote the third party ticket, and it
was known that Fort Valley and
Perry would be avoided, if the ad
vice of the ‘ third party apostles
was heeded.
At Perry it was soon ascertain
ed that the first assumption had
foundation in fact, but the inten
tion on the part of the colored peo
ple to vote the third party ticket
was not hearty by any means. The
leading colored men in this vicini
ty had studied the situation care
fully, and decided to vote for Gov.
Northeu and our local candidates,
if not for the entire democratic
ticket. This was a pure choice of
men, leaving out party politics en
tirely. Talking on this line, much
good for democracy was accom
plished,and those colored men who
came to Perry for the purpose of
voting the third party ticket soon
entertained a doubt, and then de
cided to vote for Northen, or not
at all. Many of them voted the
entire democratic ticket, many oth
ers didn’t vote at all, and only a
few voted for Peek and his gang..
At Perry the polls opened at 8
o’clock, and at all the other pre
cincts at 9 o’clock. Here at 10
o’cleck only one third party ticket
had been polled.’ This could be
easily told by au observer on the
outside, as the tickets were so dis
similar that they could be readily
distinguished. That third party
ticket was voted by a white maD,
and np to that time he was the on
ly third party man in town. This
proved that Perry is not a popular
precinct for the third party.
A spotted dog, and a black one,
were decorated with a placard,
“The Third Party,” and much
amusement was thereby created.
The argument around here was
almost entirely among the colored
people, the white people smilingly
watching and giving full scope for
a'fair decision.
The vote here, and in the county
throughout, was smaller than we
hoped for, but the democratic ma
jority is sufficient to fill our people
with great rejoicing.
The polls were closed at all the
precincts, except Perry, at three
o’clock, and the returns began
coming in shortly after 4 o’clock.
Mr. W. L. Carr, one of the third
party candidatos for the legisla
ture, was in Perry during the day.
We give below the precinct vote,
the consolidation having been
made at 12 o’clock to day.
We do not give the entire ticket,
it being practically the same as
the vote fcr governor.
The third party .tickets contain
ed both sides of the amendments,
the intention being that the part
not wanted should be scratched
out, but the tickets were mostly
voted as printed, and therefore
amounted to no vote at all on the
amendments.
We do not give the precise vote
on the amendments, but the result
in Houston is a majority against
the first two, and a riiajority for
the other two.

As we went to press before the
vote was officially consolidated,
there maybe a few slight mistakes
in the figures, but the third party
has all it got.
THE PRIZE DRILL.
About 200 Perry people and
visitors, mostly ladies, witnessed
the prize drill of the Perry Rifles
in the Superior court room last
Tuesday night.
The company assembled at the
armory, and marched from there
to the court house, where for a
few minutes they were _ drilled
preliminary to the . combat.
There were seventeen members
in ranks ,and all entered the.con
test, which began at 8:30 o’clock.
Capt. Davis gave the commands,
and Lieutenants C. E. Gilbert and
J. G. Holtzclaw joined him in
judging the drill. ,
The drill was in the manual of
arms, and it was soon manifested
that slight errors must be counted,
else the contest would never be
concluded.
At the end of five minutes Pri
vates Tounsley and Zack Houser
“fell out” on slight errors, aiid
then by-twos and threes the num
ber of contestants was decreased.
When 20 ^minutes had elapsed,
there were only six contcstants (
Sergts. Felder and Fuller, Cor
porals Dew and Houser, Privetes
Mann Martin, Will Sims. These
dropped out iu order, Fuller, Dew,
Houser, Felder, leaving the final
contest between privates W. Sims
and Mann Martin. The contest
between these two continued ten
minutes, neither making an error
that the other did uotnlso make.
Finally Martin made a slight mis
take iu a movement that was per
fectly executed by the other, and
private Will Sims was declared
the victor.
In a short and very appropriate
spbeech Sergt. E. Ragin, wbc won
the medal a year ago, but was not
in the contest this time, 'delivered
the prize to the. victor, and the
drill was concluded.
The medal is a handsome gold
military badge, made to order for
the company. . I,
The drill was almost perfect,
the boys handling the guns almost
like clockwork. The occasion was
very.pleasaut indeed.

—The Houston County Alliance

or, W. H. ‘Norwood:
Mb. Editor:^
Your editorial entitled. “About
School Books,” in the Journal of
the 22nd of September, was time
ly, conservative and sensible.
As a patron of the public schools
of Houston county, I beg space in
-your paper not only to endorse
what you have written,, but to add
a few reflections for the considera
tion of the hoard of education. . I
feel confident that the honorable
gentlemen who compose the board
will not think that either you or ^
are disposed- to dictate to them. I
have faith in the conservatism of
them. They are representative cit-
izeus, and will not knowingly do
anything against the interests of
the people of the county, whom
they were elected to serve.
As you stated,the board will meet
October 18th to adopt books for
another five years. I agree with
you that no change should be made
unless the “books now in use are
decidedly inferior.” My reasons
for taking this position are:
1st. My information is that the
books now in use are giving gen
eral satisfaction, except; perhaps j
the grammar.
2nd. The teachers are familiar
with the books in use,, and for that
reason most of them can more suc
cessfully teach them.
3rd. A change would necessarily
bring about more or less coufu-
sion and dissatisfaction all over
the county.
4th. The cost of a change under
most favorable conditions would
be great, but such an expense un
der the existing stringency of the
times,, seems to me, would be al
most unbearable.
5th. The cost to the people of
the whole county by the change of
Readers alone would, in my hum
ble opinion, be not less than Sl,-
000; for there are thousands of
readers in the homes of families
that would have to be discarded,
besides those swapped for new
ones by paying boot. . .
6th. If a change should be or
dered, many .poor parents would
be unable to get new books, and
some who might be able would not,
thereby throwing many children
out of school.
I certainly think with yon, Mr.
Editor, “that it is the duty of the
board. of education to consider
first, last and all the time the in
terests of the people of Houston
county, regardless of the wishes or
importunities of the agents, whose
business it is to sell books.”
In behalf of the patrons of the
public schools I have written the
above, and ask that you insert it
in your paper. I am as sure that
your editorial was written solely
in the interests of the people as I
am that these lines are thus pen
ned. I have read iu the newspa
pers of much confusion and dissat
isfaction created in other counties
in this state by a change of text
books. I hope that no such thing
will happen in HoustoD. I am, as
I have said, au interested

On thenveof the 27th of Sep

rustled by the last gentle breeze
of the dying day, the spirit of
little “General,” infant son of Mr.

earthly tenement and winged its
Cay to that land beyond, where no
night displaces the beauty of the
bright and everlasting day. For 3
months he has withstood the rava

any great demonstration of his ag

h
expressions of suiiering within,an-

of rest prepared for Christ and his
