Major Bacon is a-gwine on.
We confess wo are astonished at
Ihe faith of third party men.
All the defeated candidates who
ran in the recent primary are good
democrats, and will cheerfully
abide the will of their party.
Sam Jones says the third party
leaders may get to heaven some
time, but they will never get to
Washington. The two places are
not on the same, road.
The men who voted in last Sat
urday’s primary will never vote for
the third party man who called
them “the riff-raff and rag-tag;”
no, never in a thousand years.
The third party will not poll
more than nine hundred votes in
Gwinnett county in October. We
doubt if there are that many third j
party men in the county. They
ain’t in it—that’s all.
The Buford Plow Boy advised [
the independent thinkers to stay
out of last Saturday’s primary.
They did, Brother Wilson, but we
lmd enough without them. It will
be the same way in the fall.
Wk have heard, from reliable
sources, that a certain third party
candidate said that “none but rifT
rf.il’ and rag-tag” voted in last
Saturday’s primary. That candi
date will indiscretion
before the eleeflL is over. Wait
and see if he doesn't.
Tlic Platform.
The Georgia state democratic
platform, adopted in the Atlanta
convention last week, seems to
givo satisfaction to ull democrats.
There were no amendments, and
the convention adopted the plat-
Jorm just as it came from the
"A" j."nmmitten.
'* l, *®*J** ii - . Ujg^result of
jrWmipromiae. It declares for sti
ver coinage, hut insists that the
value of all dollars must be of
equal value, both in purchasing
power and in the payment of debts.
The News is willing, for the sake
of party harmony, to sacrifice, to
some extent, its convictions on the
financial question. While we do
not believe that the United States
alone can coin all the silver that
would he brought to our mints,
without damaging the national
credit anß entailing groat loss up
on o9r people, yet there are many
democrats who seem to differ with
us, and of course we accord to
them the freedom of thought
which we ourselves always exercise.
However, if the entire silver plank
shall he adhered to, we shall be
perfectly satisfied.
The thing to do now is to work
for the democratic party’s trium
phant success, and The News will
bend its energies to that end.
Cleveland In Alabama.
The triumphant election of Col.
Oates in Alabama is an index to
President Cleveland’s popularity
in that state. It will be remem
bered that Col. Oates ran in the
primaries us a Cleveland democrat.
He was nominated by a large ma
jority, and now he has been elected
by a much larger majority than
Jones was elected in 1822.
The most stupid observer can
tell why Oates'has increased the
democratic majority in Alabama.
The secret of the whole story is
the fact that he went before
the people and told them the truth
about the financial question. Here
tofore the democratic orators and
candidates in Alabama have not
had the nerve to tell the people
the truth concerning Cleveland
and his administration. They
have had an idea that a Cleveland
man could not be elected to an of
fice in the south. They have
thought all the while that Cleve
land and his policies were very
unpopular with our people. We
do not deny that this has been true
in a great many instances, but the
cause of it was lack of information
or fairness. Col. Oates went be
fore the people of Alabama and
told them the truth about Cleve
land and his policies, and when
the people understood the man and
his purposes they registered their
Votes in Ills favor.
Here in Georgia a great many
people are abusing Cleveland be
cause newspapers unfriendly to his
administration have misrepresent
ed him. We hopeevery democrat
ic orator who takes the stump
this year will be a man of the
Oates stripe, who will have the
information and the honesty to
tell the ]>eople the truth concern
ing Cleveland and his administra
tion. Jfall our orators will do
that we shall have a victory tire
like of which hgs never been wit-t
, n«*eed in Georgia. ]
! Tlic Populist Party—An Incon
gruous Aggregation.
A great many honest farmers
have marched into the populistic
ranks, under the delusion that
they were merely following the
Alliance, but a greater mistake
was never made. The Alliance
was truly a farmers movement,
and, if its original principles had
been rigidly adhered to, would
have been a great potentiality in
advancing the agricultural and
social interests of that class. But
it only preserved its integrity for
two years, when a crowd of politi
cal hacks took charge of it, and
proceeded to run the organization,
not only regardless of its funda
mental principles, but in direct
antagonism to the same, and for
their own personal aggrandize
ment. It was, originally, compos
ed exclusively of farmers, and con
trolled by them in the formula
tion of its plans and policies, but
now its dominating elements have
no interest in agricultural affairs.
At the outset of its career, the
first and leading declaration of its
principles and purposes, as set
forth in its constitution, was “to
labor for the education of the ag
ricultural classes in the science of
economical goverment in a strict
ly non-partisan spirit,” and before
the obligation of membership was
taken, the applicant was assured
that it would “not conflict with
the freedom of his political or re
ligious views.” But all this was
changed at the State Convention
of the Alliance, held at Griffin, j
this year, und the word “non-par
tisan” was stricken from its con-j
stitution, and the organization j
marched into the ranks of popu- ’
lism. From that moment it j
ceased to be a farmers movement, j
and became simply one wing of an j
inconguous political aggregation,
composed of a number of elements,
not only without a common inter
est, or purpose, but each actually an
tagonistic to the other.
The platform of this hybrid par
ty is the greatest conglomeration
of inconsistent and adverse prin
ciples ever grouped together since
the birth of government, and could
only have been framed by a con
vention composed of a half dozen
variety of cranks.
It was evidently the purpose of
the builders of this platform to
insert at least one plank for each
variety of cranks, and thus weld
the whole into an army of several
corps, each marching under dif
ferent, Hags, and actuated by dis
tinct and separate motives.
In verification of this we pro
pose to refer briefly to some of the
different declarations of principles
made by the national conventions
of that party.
The Omaha platform declared
“that the forces of reform this day
organized will never cease to move
forward until every wrong is
righted and equal rights and equal
privileges securely established for
all the men and women of this
country.”
The purpose of this declaration
was to catch that element in the
north and west, composed of long
haired men and short haired wo
men, who favor woman suffrage.
The same platform also declared
that “transportation being a
means of exchange and a public
necessity, the government should
own and operate the railroads in
the interest of the people.” Also
“to shorten the hours of labor,
and demand a rigid enforcement
of the existing eight hour law on
the government work, and ask
that a penalty clause U* added to
said law.”
This declaration was designed
to catch the votes of the railroad,
and government employers. If
the government should become
the owner of the railroads both
these classes would come under
the eight hour system. These
people receive from $2 to $lO per
day, while farm hands get from
fifty to seventy five cents from
ten to fourteen hours work. Of
course the farmers do not favor
this unjust discrimination against
j them, and must know that this de
mand was made as a sop to an en
tirely different element.
There is another element of agit
tators who favor changing the ele
mentary system of American gov
erment relative to legislation, and
the following resolution was adopt
ed for them:
“That we commend to the
thoughtful consideration of the
people and reform press the legis
lative system known as the initia
tive and referendum.“
Under this system no act of the
legislature, or of congress, would
become a law until the same had
been submitted to the people and
ratified. Such a law would re
quire an election to be held on
every day in the year in this state
and no sane man indorses it, yet
those who do have votes, and the
purpose of this resolution was to
catch them.
The St Louis Convention made
this declaration: “We demand
that the government issue legal
tender notes and pay the union
soldiers the difference between the
price of the depreciated money in
i which they were paid and gold,”
\ This was designed to catch the
soldier vote of the north, and to
J carry it out would more than
double the present national debt,
j During the war the union soldiers
were paid in greenbacks, which
were at no time, on a pur with
| gold. A portion of the time, and
a considerable portion at that, one
; dollar in gold was worth two in
! greenbacks. The southern soldiers
were paid in confederate money
j which was-worth many times loss
than greenbacks during the early
years of the war, and almost total
|ly worthless the last two years.
!No southern man dosires to be
! taxed to raise this enormous sum.
The confederate soldiers get rio
pension from the federal govern
ment, and feel that the yunkqes
ought to be satisfied with green
backs and pensions, in as much as
they only recieved worthless paper
for their services, and were poorly
clothed and half fed.
The foregoing are the leading
declarations that have been made
by the populists in their nationitl
conventions, which are in conflict
with those of the national and
state democratic conventions, and
the populist who repudiates all of
them is not in harmony with his
party, nor a fit member of it, but
is really a democrat, and should
come back to his party. What
sense is there in our people divid
ing up over such infernal non
sense?
Last Saturday’s Primary.
In last Saturday’s primary eigh
teen hundred and forty-seven votes
were polled. In the May primary
there were only eleven hundred
and sixty-three, making a gain of
nearly seven hundred votes within
less than three months.
Gentle reader, do you know
what it all means? It means that
the third party is no longer a con
sideration in the minds of the peo
ple of Gwinnett county. It means
that the people have decided to
let the sore-head politicians go to
thunder. They have been follow
ing them for some time that is, a
few of them have- - but now they
have got a hate ajfd will come
home to the democratic household
of their fathers. God grant that
they may all come, and come now.
j The News makes the prediction
j now that in October the democrats
I will Carry this county by at least
seven hundred and fifty majority.
In fact, there is a possibility of
the majority reaching one round
thousand. If election day should
happen to be a pretty day the ma
jority will he so large that the
party of the third part will stand
off and view it in perfect amaze
ment.
And now a word to democrats.
What we have written has not
been said to make you over con
fident. We have merely shown
you the possibilities which lie be
fore you. It is with you to say
what the majority shall be. If
you sit down and fold your hands
it will not be more than five hun
dred. If you go to work and keep
at it until the polls are closed in
October, the majority will be one
thousand, and we shall never again
hear of third party ism in the good
old county of Gwinnett.

Senatorial Drifts.

The Clarksville Advertiser lias

They are both Jackson county

they will get out a tip-top paper.
The paper will ho enlarged to a

The people of Georgia are for j
Major A. O. Bacon for the United
States senate, of course. Mr. Tur- j
tier's home, the old second and
the new eleventh congressional
districts, cannot he expected to be
solid for Major Bacon as long as
Mr. Turner remains in the race; j
then, too, Mr. Garrard has a re
spectable following in bis home i
counties, but a large majority of
the democrats of Georgia are for
A. O. Bacon. Yes, the unstained
mantle of the lamented and be
loved Colquitt has, it seems to us,:
fatten upon Major Bacon, and it is
weifl thut it has.—Lee County En

The second district is not so
j unanimous for Mr. Turner for the'
; senate, ufter all that has been)

j Bacon’s Gainesville speech thsj
Georgia Cracker says: “In £
word it was a grand speech—omyj
worthy of the speaker and his nrJp

Love For Mother Above All Else.
There was an incident in the
j proceedings of the late state con
vention which all observed but
few were able to understand.
When Hon. W. Y. Atkinson was
j formally nominated for governor
land brought before the convention
by a regularly appointed commit
tee to accept the honor that had
been conferred on him, he looked
the very impersonation of com
posure.
As he began his address liis eyes i
spoke that determination which
had characterized him in all his
fights for democracy, his manner
was confident and his every bear
ing indicated courage and force.
Suddenly a slight tremor was
noticed in his voice, his eyes be
came moistened, and for the time,
those who observed him closely ap
preciated that tho speaker was la
boring with great effort to control
himself.
It was all momentary—a min
ute of intense anxiety in which all
the elements of sympathy, anxie
ty and curiosity figured—but it
was soon over, and the hero assert
ed himself and delivered to the vast
audience a speech that stirred to
the depths every democrat present.
After the adjournment a close
| friend of Mr. Atkinson spoke to
| him of the incident, and asked if
the sight of his wife did not cause
1 the faultering.
“Did you notice it,” inquired
] the brilliant young leader.
“Well,” said he, “the presence of
! my wife was not unobserved, and
: yet it did not produce tho faulter
ing to which you allude. As I
j looked upon her 1 thought of my
! lovable mother, whose extreme
age had kept her from attending
: the convention, and involuntarily
thought of tho great delight that
I the occasion would have given her
had she been present.” “This
thought,” he continued, his eyes
j moisting, “gave me embarrassment
| that, for the moment came nigh
| overwhelming me, and it was with j
j great effort that 1 asserted suffi
cent control to proceed with my!
j speech.”
The democracy of Georgia lias
honored themselves in calling up
on such a man to lead them to
'victory in a battle against the ene-
I mies of popular government. One
j who, under such conditions, will
allow his mind to turn to home
i and mother, is a leader who pos
, sesses the noblest and lordliest j
| qualities of man.
On more than one occasion has j
Mr. Atkinson demonstrated that-)
lie was made in no common mould, j
and in this and many other re- j
spects he has exhibited those at-1
tributes that appeal to the finer i
sensibilities of men of intense na-!
tures. .
Every mother in Georgia will in
voluntarily pray God to bless the
splendid young leader who, in
such a supreme!, moment, thought
of the dearest ntimo in life.
