Executive Committee’s Action.
At a meeting of the democratic
executive committee yesterday a
call was made for a mass meeting
of the democratic party of Rock¬
dale county on the 30th of June at
2 o’clock p. m. at the court house
to select two delegates and two al¬
ternates to attend the congressional
convention to be held in Atlanta on
the 11th of July, and the same
number of delegates and alternates
to the senatorial convention of this
district.
And also called a primary elec¬
tion of the democratic party of
said county on Saturday July 21st
at the several precints of the coun¬
ty to select a candidate for the low¬
er house of the next general assem¬
bly, said election to be governed by
the rules heretofore adopted by the
executive committee, which will
appear hereafter,
J. N. Gi.e.vn, Ch. Ex. Com.
Conyers, Ga., June 14th 1888.
John Scott Harrison, father of
Benjamin Harrison, voted for Til
den. He quit the republican party
in 1874 and died a democrat. His
son is still impenitent.
An autopsy on the body of Nel¬
son Lee. who was killed in Charles¬
ton. W. Va., a few days ago, showed
that his heart was situated on the
right side of his breast. There is
nothing strange in this. Some men
are altogether heartless.
The United States circuit court
at Little Rock, Ark,, decided on
Saturday that 1 lrd cider Was an
intoxicant, and its sale illegal in the
prohibition counties of that state.
Such a decision in New England
would almost stir up a rebellion.
Instead of the Band playing
"Nearer My God To Thee,” on
opening a session at the Republican
Convention, it would have been far
more appropriate to have treated
the audience to ‘‘Jordan ia a hard
road to ti able, I believe.”
A person selling intoxicants in
Telfair county is required to pay a
license of $5,000to sell in any quan¬
tity, not only by retail but by the
gallon or barrel. In addition to
this he must obtain tne consent of
a majority of the freeholders living
within three miles of such place as
the seller desires to sell. He must
also give bond, as the law requires
for retailers.
With Henry George, Dr. Mc
Glynn and Mr. Powderly, the great
leaders of the labor organizations,
all denouncing the republican plat¬
form for its favor to protected mo¬
nopolies, its declaration in favor
free whisky rather than cheaper
clothing and other necessariss
life, etc., is there any good reason
to doubt that the bulk of the labor
vote will be given to the democratic
ticket 9
