THE LAWRENCEVILLE NEWS. PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY Lawrenceville Publishing Co., Proprietors. GEO, D. RUCKER, Editor. Entered at Lawrenceville poatofflce as second-class matter. All Coin munlent ion*, to rwelve prompt attention, mn«t b« addretfMMl to THE NEWS, I.awrenoeville, Oa. Lnwreneevllle, Ga., August 10,181)4. 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. TATE NOMINATED. He Goes In For a Second Term Without Opposition. The Congressional Convention of the Ninth District assembled in Gainesville Wednesday morning. It was a large ntid representative gathering of enthusiastic demo crats, and the deliberations were harmonious throughout. Con gressman Tate had no opposition and was complimented with a unanimous nomination for a sec ond term. The convention was called to or der at 12 o’clock hv Hon. C. 11.

Bacon is elected j United States senator he should ; not neglect to thank the Atlanta ' Gazette for its hearty opposition 1 to hint. —Clarksville Advertiser. The Clarksville Advertiser lias again changed hands, and M. I). Lamar becomes editor and John ; Silman the business manager. They are both Jackson county boys, and although new in journal istic experience we are confident they will get out a tip-top paper. The paper will ho enlarged to a four-page, seven-column, and will bean ardent supporter of Georgia’s favorite statesman, Maj. A. 0. Ba con. Good luck to you, boys! 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 terprise ' j Major A. O. Bacon epent Mon-j day in McDonough getting ac quainted with our per.pie, and, looking after his interest as can didate for senator. Maj, Bacon is > one of the ablest men in Georgia, and so far is decidedly in the lead in the senatorial race.—Henry i County News.. The second district is not so j unanimous for Mr. Turner for the' ; senate, ufter all that has been) ! said about it. Terrell has instruct- j ed for Maj. Bacon and Dougherty j was saved to Mr. Turner by a small i | majority. In speaking of Maj. j j Bacon’s Gainesville speech thsj Georgia Cracker says: “In £ word it was a grand speech—omyj worthy of the speaker and his nrJp bio theme. And if it did ml* make a lasting impression on a'Tk who heard it, it lias, we are satis-l fled, fallen like seed on goiitfj ground and will give thousands of) democrats ample reasons for the faith that is in them, and will in ; the future bear fruit fifty and a hundred fold. Should Georgia j choose Maj. Bacon in the coming! race, our people may rest assured j that she will have reason to be justly proud. Hon. A. 0. Bacon for the senate \ and Henry G. Turner for the posi tion he now occupies is our ticket. Wo don’t see any use in troubling or changing a good thing. Mr. Bacon is qualified to serve his country in a very distinguished way if given an opportunity. Let’s give it to him.—Telfair Enterprise. The progress of Ma j. A. O. Ba con’s candidacy for the United States senate is satisfactory to his many friends throughout the state. Maj. Bacon is the ablest man in the field for that high position and nearer in sympathy with those of the people of Georgia that the views of his competitors. He is capturing county after county in j his race .and tho outlook for elect-! ion is most favorable.—Athens i Banner. Hon. A. O. Bacon is making a vigorous canvass which is very pleasing to a, largo majority of the people of Georgia. We place this week the name of Hon. A. (). Bacon at the head of our columns as our choice for Uni ted States senator. He is our j choice because of his great ability; j because of his familiarity with all j national questions, and especially because of his financial .views. Our people, by a large majority, j indorse the money views of Maj. Bacon and will give him their sup- j port. —Hale’s Weekly Hon. A. O. Bacon appears to "be the favorite of the people for Uni ted States senator. He is-a man of recognized ability and will re flect credit upon the Empire State. —Middle Georgia Progress. 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. NEWS I.AWHENCEVILI.E, OA.
