Bays a pair of white mocking birds

Col. Tom Bell, the affable and
brainy Clerk of the Superior court
of Hall county, is being groomed
for Congressional honors by his
frieuds, as the successor of Col.
Tate.
“The Georgia Record” is the
name of a sprightly little weekly
paper issued in Atlanta, with Col.
Robt. L. Rogers as editor. It is
as bright as a silver dollars and
expresses itself in plain language.
Success to the Record.
When Gen’l. Joe Wheeler ar-
rives in the Philippines you are
going to hear good reports from
our soldiers, and the fighting will
begin in earnest. If Gen’l. Otis
will just staud aside and give
Fighting Joe full swing there

Aguinaldo’s army by Christinas.
The only hope for high-priced
cotton this fall is in a calamity to
the growing crop. That Texas dis
aster was just a drop in the buck
et, destroying only 200,000 bales.
It will require a destruction of at
least a million bales to bring high
prices. Now is the time for the
calamity howlers to get in their
work.
Hon. Howard Thompson, of
Gainesville, was attending City
court here this week. Howard
has many friends in Gwinnett,
and it is freely predicted by some
of those who voted against him in
the last race that he could easi.y
carry this couuty against Col.
Tate should he again offer for
Congress.
Rev. Brough ton’s charges against
Mayor Woodward, of Atlanta,havo
falleu flat. The prevailing opin
ion seems to be that Broughton
as a minister of the gospel should
have gone to Woodward in a quiet
way and extended a helping hand,
instead of denouncing him from
the pulpit. Woodward has sinned,
made confession, and has prom
ised to reform. And Broughton
has shown himself to be revenge
ful and hyena-like in his conduct
toward Woodward; quite the
wrong spirit for a follower of the
meek and lowly Nazarine.
The News-Herald has it from
good authority that the editor of
the Jackson Herald. Hon. John N.
Holder, at present a member of
the lower house of the General
Assembly, will allow his name to
be used as a candidate for Senator
from his seqatorial district, this
being Jackson’s turn to furnish
the candidate. Mr. Holder not
only successfully manages the
Jackson Herald, one of the best
weeklies in,Georgia, but is promi
nent in politics and in all that
appertains to the welfare and pros
perity of Jackson county. He
made an excellent record as a wise,
intelligent and safe legislator at
the first session of this legislature,
and if elected to the Senate we
predict that he will easily rank
with its leaders.

Col. William J. Bryan, while in
Gainesville Thursday night, was
the recipient of a bale of cotton,
presented by Col. Charles
Webb one of
biggest cotton
OT c?uyenTof that section. The bale
was in the form of the new Low ry
round lap bale, and was presented
in a neat speech by Col. Webb,
and accepted in as neat a response
by Col. Bryan. The Governor of
the state, of whose staff Col Webb
is a member, was likewise present
ed with one of the new compress
ed bales as a souvenir of his visit
to his home city and h' r Chau
tauqua. Mr. Webb has put in
compresses for baling Ihe new
bales at Jefferson, Harmony
Grove, Mouroe, Gillsville and
other points in North Georgia.
TAXES HIS PATIENCE.
Col, W. J, Bryan, the silver
knight of the wost, has been in
terviewed by Trox Bankston, the
versatile editor of the Ringgold
j New South.
In the course of his remarks
Col. Bryan said:
“It taxes my patience to talk to a gold bug.
It requires all my Christian fortitude and pa
tience to -lo it.”
No doubt the “goldhug” is a
thorn in the flesh to Col. Bryan,
but he should remember “gold
i bugs” have as much right to their
| opinions as we have to ours. There
are thousands of loyal democrats
who differ with us on the currency
question, aud if we are to treat
them fairly we must accord to
them sincerity of purpose aud
honesty of thought in their views.
And Col. Bryan should not allow
the tension cord of his “Christian
fortitude and patience to be un
duly strained when he meets up
with them.
It looks now as if he will secure
the democratic nomiuation for
the presidency, and in that event
be will need their votes, aB well as
those of the “silver bugs,” to land
him in the presidential chair.
If the Canton Advance and Al
pharetta Free Press are authorized
to speak for Col. Tate, the next
Congressman from this district
will be selected by a white prima
ry, in which event white demo
crats in the 9th district will staud
on a level. The candidate receiv
ing the iargest number of votes
will be the democratic standard
bearer. This will obviate the ne
cessity of a farcial convention, in
which everything is cut and dried
beforehand, and will bring the
candidates direct before the popu
lar will of the party. This is as
it should be, and we are glad to
see that Col, Tate and his sup
porters have recognized the fair
uess of the plan proposed. The
ratio of representation in the con
vention has heretofore been mani-
festly unfair to the large and pop
ulous counties of the district, and
when Hon, J. T. Baxter, a Tate
delegate from this county in the
last convention, Bought to remedy
the evil, he was unceremoniously
“sot down” on by the Tate dele
gates from “beyai: t the mountings.’
However, the justice of Col. Bax
ter’s protest is now beiDg recog
nized, and a change is so mani
festly necessary to the purification
of 9th district politics that it can
not longer be resisted, unless open
revolt is invited. We do not un
dertake to gainsay Col. Tate’s pop
ularity before the masses of the
white democrats of the district, or
his ability to again capture the
nomiuation in a white primary,
but we do insist that there are
other democrats in the district as
worthy of honors as he. And the
sentiment is growing, without
prejudice to Col. Tate, that he has
held ttie position long enough and
should now gracefully retire and
give others a pull at the public
teat.
Now that poor Montgomery Fol
som is no more, his praises are be
ing sung on every side, and the
newspapers are filled with loving
tributes to his memory. His was
indeed a sad life and a sadder end
ing. His death brings to us many
solemn thoughts. Hoy much hap
pier his earthly career might have
been had some of the flowers
that were laid at his bier been
strewn in his pathway during his
pilgrimage here below, and how
much sweeter could his songs of
nature have made his own life could
he have heard the applauditß of his
friends, ere the summons came
calling him to his last sleep. Had
some loving hand been stretched
forth to help him, when his very
soul yearned for strength, his
bright genius and his life might
have been spared for many years
to come. But the cruel winds of
fate blew few blossoms iu Folsom’s
way. as the waves tossed him from
pillar to post; and yet his tired
and bleeding heart cried out, and
his soul thirsted for the milk of
human kindness. Uncomplain
ingly he bore his cross like a
martyr, scattering sunshine by
his genius in the lives of others,
yet his own pathway was hedged
about with briars and tangled
weeds. While it is of courso con
soling to his family and friends
know that in his death the '

aSM-wmve in song and story, yet
we can but refrain a tear of sor
row and a sigh of regret when we
remember that the raiubow of hope
might have appeared before his
vision and spared him to us had
some of the blossoms that came in
such profusion after the cord of
life was broken been strewn among
the thorns as ho battled with the
adversities of life. Indeed how
much happier the lives of all of
us would be could the garlands b 8

MODERN POLITICS IN KENTUCKY.
From the Sandusky (O) Register.
Politics is lively in Kentucky.
When Goebel was nominated for
Governor by the Democracy,
Stone who was knocked out sent
by a friend to Goebel this mes
sage: “You are a damned liar,
thief and scoundrel.”
Goebel returned this message:
“My complements to Captain Stone, and nay
to him that I say he is a damned fool.”
No blood has been shed and may
not be by these fellow Democrats.
In the “good old days” of Ken
tucky chivalry Goebel would have
demanded satisfaction at once foi
being called a thief, a liar and a
scoundrel. Now-a-days politicians
takt that sort of thing without
getting mad, unless they fill up
on whiskey, thereby work up cour
age and run amuck on the high
way.
Goebel having won out in the
convention is as cool as a cucum
ber aud happy as a clam at high
tide. Stone having been defeated
dose not take defeat gracefully,
and is mad clean through to the
marrow of his bones.
Yet before the election comes
he will be stumping the state for
Goebel and dividing pot luck over
a cold bottle with the man he now
calls “a thief, a liar and a damn
ed scoundrel. ”
Sensitive people may think this
very wicked, but in truth it is
modern politics, and modem pol
itics is a very nasty pool, and he
who enters it leaves personal
honor behind or he can’t be in the
swim.
W ANTS TO SEE THE ELEPHANT.
From Tfote Georgia Record.
On lust Tuesday at Baruesville
the Chautaqua had the attraction
of a speech from the late Colonel
Wjlliam J. Bryan, a Nebraska
Populist Politician, and ex-Con
gressmau, and a whilom cauidate
for President on a puddling
Populist platform, the great
American cyclone orator and self
nominator, and peripatetic .bab
bler about silver. On the same
day, in the evening, he came to
this city, so it is reported, aud
was the chief guest at a banquet.
The daily papers printed notices of
the affair, and a list of names of
“those to bo present.” What
sort of league politic? is this ex
clusive arrangement? In olden
times it use to be so that when a
“big man” came to town as an as
pirant for office, or exponent of
any party policy, or political prin
ciple, he would mix and mingle
amongst all the people, and with
out any printed list of a 1 charm
ed circle” who would surround
him. How about this Bryan bus
iness? Is Democracy only illus
trated in a league of adolescence?
Are the people, the great body of
people, those who are the founda
tion of republican government of
Democratic principles, not to be
permitted to “see jthe elephant?”

WHO IS TO BLAME T
If the statements of the ad
mistration at Washington are
true General Otis will have to
bear much of the blame for the
failure of the campaign in the
Philippines. It will be remem
bered that some time ago, mes
sages from him stated that he had
sufficient force upon the island to
suppress the rebellion. It is evi
dent that the administration
placed confidence in his state
ments, though we believed from
the first that a mistake was being
made in underestimating the
strength of the enemy. In a re
cent interview with a reporter,
Secretary Alger is quoted as say
ing: .
“As long as Major General Otis
is in command of the military
forces in the Philippines—and I
havo no idea that he will bo re
-4
lieved—ho is the man to deter
mine the number of men he
should have to crush the insurrec
tion. The president stands ready
to give him every man, every sup
ply, every piece of equipment he
asks for. He has asked for 30,-
<XX) men, and they will be given
him. All the information I have
received from General Otis hps
been given to the president.
Anybody’s opinion on the situa
tion is as good as mine. To me
the condition of affairs, is satis
factory”
It is clearly the purpose of the
Secretary to shift the entire re
sponsibility to the shoulders of
Goneral Otis. It may be true
that General Otis misled the ad
ministration by his rosy views of
conditions on the island, but part
of the blame must fall on the ad
ministration all the same. The
hair-breadth escapes in Cuba
should have been a warning to
the war department, to say noth
ing of the counsel given by promi
nent army officials who had studi
ed the situation in Luzon.—Val

bale in his mill, and recently publish
ed a letter, in wnich he said that cot
ton in this form was worth $2.00 a
bale inora to his mill than square-bale
cotton. Recently he telegraphed as
follows:
“After two years experience with
the Roundlap bale as the American
Cotton Company as a manufacturer, I
can postively state that my experience
is that it can be sampled equally as
well as the square bale; that it saves
in waste, that it uuwinds the core
perfectly, and saves much labor In the
opening room. Mixed are false pack
ed bales or never found. For the
planter, ginner and manufacturer it is
the greatest invention of the age.”
