CEMETERY QUESTION SETTLED.
He Believe* Some Member of Council
Will Again Raise |t— Says He Be
lieve* Hie Majority of the Board
Is Appreciative of the Need of a
New Cemetery—Alderman Hans
Has Not Decided AY lint He Will Do.
Alderman Mills Thinks the Project
to Buy the Garrard Tract Is Dead
and Will Not Be Resurrected.
Mayor Myers thinks it probable '.that
pome member of the City Council will
again bring tip the matter of anew cem
et ry. Whether the Garrard tract will be
taken up again or some other si ! te cham
pioned is mere than he could predict. He
has net been advised of the intention of
any member of the b ard to again bring
up the issue, but it is his opinion that it
will soon be heard from.
The and feat of the effort to secure the
Garrard tiae: was, the Mayor believes,
due to a lack of informa'ion. If the Aider
men had had more facts as to the land
before ‘them, he said he is sure the vote
■would have been different.
Its inaccessibility, the Mayor thinks,
is but a minor objection to the Garrard
tract. If it were to be used for cemetery
purposes, he is con Idem that satisfactory
railway arrangemer.ts coul i soon be
made. The advantage of other tracts in
already having street car facilities is not
regarded by the Mayor as sufficient to
make their claims f r the city’s recogni
ti n Stronger than those of the Garrard
t: act.
Alderman Haas was asked if it is his
purpose to bring up the question again,
lie said he did not know what he would
do. The turn proceedings had taken in
Council had "gagged” him, he said, and
he was not able to reply to the last words
of Alderman Tiedeman, who had closed
the debate with an argument against the
purchase of the Garrard tract. The motion
of Alderman Tiedem in had bo°n to lay
the commi:tee’s report on the (able, a mo
tion that, under pari 'amen ary rules, ad
mitted of no debate. He had risen, he said,
to ask to be allowed to speak, but the
Mayor did not recognize him.
Alderman Tiedeman said he had
heard of no intention entertained by
any alderman to again bring up the c me
ttiry question. Mr. Tiedeman felt relieved
by the result of the tigh't in Conn il as
he has be n convinced that the purchc.* ■
of the Garrard tract by the city would
have been unwise.
Alderman Mills believes the issue is
dead. He dees not believe it will be rais
ed again, for some. time, at all events. The
vote of Council, he declared, is precisely
in accord with pub’ic ser.'timc-nt upon the
question, and he. does net believe this
sentiment will be braved by the resurrec
tion of the project to purchase the Gar
rard tract. Reaching the cemetery, Mr.
Mills believes, would be the prime ob
jection to it if it were established, on the
Garrard tract.
THANKS FOR ( APT. NORTON,
Veteran* of Eighth Georgia Express
Their Gratitude.
A meeting of the survivors of the
Eighth Georgia Regiment of Volunteers
of the Confederate States of America was
held at the Willard Hotel, Louisville, Kv.,
June 2, Col.-John R. Towers was called
to the chair and F. W. Quarels, Jr., acted
as secretary.
A committee was appointed by the chair
to the number of five to draft resolutions,
to express to Capt. Geo. C. Norton the
thanks of the survivors of the Eighth
Georgia Regiment. C. S. A., for the hos
pitable manner in which he and his good
wife have entertain/d us during the tenth
annual reunion at Louisville.
The following resolutions were submit
ted by the committee and unanimously
adopted:
"Resolved, first. That we, the under
signed members of the Eighth Georgia
Regiment of Georgia Volunteers, here
present, as invited veteran guo.As of Capt.
Geo. C. Norton, member of Company A.
and captain and A. C. S. of the regiment,
desire to express our thanks to him for
his generous hospitality to us as his
guests at the Willard Hotel and his home.
"Resolved, second. That we. the sur
viving comrades of the Eighth Georgia
Regiment cannot adjourn our reunion
without giving thanks to cur generous
comrade, Capt. Geo. C. Norton, whose
guests we have been since here. We hove
not forgotten how diligently be worked
nearly forty years ago to provide for us
the wants of the inner man, and he never
failed us then—nor has he forgotten us
now. But the sentiment of his kindness
Is worth far more than the provision for
our bodily comfort. The heart is of more
value than the body, and we thank him
from the heart for having kept his love
and regard for his old comrades so long
and so pure. May the good Lord preserve
and keep him'and all those who are near
and dear to him. and may his last days
pass serenely with no clouds of grief or
sorrow.
"Resolved third. That these resolutions
be filed with him, and that he be re
quested to furnish- a copy of the some to
each member of the regiment, who has re
sponded with his presence at the Tenth
Annual Reunion of U. S. C. V .
in Louisville. Ivy., so that he
may file said copy in the archives
of hi 9 home, as a memento of Capt.
George <?. Norton and family, and to be
banded down os an heir-loom of him. and
the regiment and, the Tenth Reunion at
Louisville, Ky.
"Resolved fourth. That we express our
feelings of respect for our venerable and
worthy colonel. John R. Towers, who has
honored us wi-th his presence, also for our
aged and brave general. George T. An
derson. better known ns 'Old Tige,’ and as
he has passed the eightieth notch in life.
M hone and pray that a kind Provi
dence will help him to reach his hun
dredth anniversary.
"Resolved, fifth. That our comrades be*
ing widely scattered over the South and
West, and Indeed over the whole United
States, that the papers of Chattanooga,
Rome. Atlanta, 'Macon ond Savannah,
eopy these resolutions for especial rea
sons, and we, nlso request the Louisville
pape-rs end all other Southern papers
feeling kindly to Confederate Veterans,
to do the eame. so our comrades thus
wVlely scattered, may see them, and know
of our notion on this occasion.

A ISIS UNDERSTOOD CONTRACT.
Air*. Redan Thought She Could Mor
row $ 1 ,(H)0 ou a $3,000 Life Insur
anco Policy.
In yesterday’s Morning News appeared
an article descriptive of an attempt made
by Mrs. Annie Redan to recover certain
diamonds, which she claimed belonged to
her, from the Mutual Reserve Fund Life
Association or its agent here, Capt. W.
M. Tumlin.
The decision in the case was based on
Judge Norwood’s agreement with the
legal contention of the defendant, that as
the policy was made payable to Mrs. Re
dan in the event of the death of her hus
band, who was the holder of the policy,
and as she was the sole beneficiary under
hs terms, she could apply her money to
the payment of the premiums and in th's
manner become liable for the deb:s of
the husband.
It transpired from the evidence that was
given in the case that there was consid
erable diversity of opinion or recollection
as to the details of the contract upon
which the poiicy of insurance was based.
Mrs. Redan and her husband testified for
instance, that when the policy was taken
out she was assured that immediately
after its issue she would be entitled to
borrow sl,uOO from the company upon i't,
and that it was with this understanding
that she agreed to give up her jewels for
the payment of the first premium.
Capt. Tumlin denied that any such
agreement with the plaintiff had ever
been made. It was a straight out transac
tion, he said, the jewels having been ac
cepted by him and the amount due the
ccmpany paid out cf his own pocket.
The evidence showed that after the pol
icy had been issued Mrs. Redan made the
attempt to borrow' from the company the
sum cf SI,OOO, which she had understood
she was to be al owed to do. and was
promptly turned Gown. Then she wanted
back her jewels. The suit in trover to re
cover them was brought in last October,
but only came to trial on Wednesday. It
was then decided against her.

demanded looking to the prevention of
such a utilization of capital.
Tariff for revenue only is advocated an!
the repeal of the present tariff act is de- i
manded.
.iKdinat Imperialism,
The platform holds that since it is not
practical to apply the constitution of the
United States to the people of another na
tion. the imperialistic policy of the Repub
lican party is contrary to the theory' of
our government.
The party declares its opposition to a
large standing army. The Republican
policy regarding the Porto Rican tariff aot
is condemned.
The platform favors expansion by all
reasonable and practical means, but de-*-
nies that the present policy regarding the
acquisition of foreign territory' is subserv
ient to this end. In this connection the
platform says that foreign trade expan
sion is better promoted by the arts of
peace and friendly relations than by war.
The acts of bravery and gallantry of
the soldiers and sailors of the United
States are commended.
The repeal of the 10 per cent, tax on
state banks of issue is demanded.
After a ringing indorsement of W. J.
Brvan and the instruction of delegates to i
the National Convention, the platform
concludes by extending to all voters irre
spective of past party affiliations an invi
tation to join the Democratic party.

Atlanta. June I.4—After the nominations
wore made in to-day’o convention Gov.
Candler was escorted to the chairman's
desk and made the following address:
Mr. Chairman. Gentlemen of the Con
vention: I thank you and the democracy
of Georgia whom you represent for th‘
renewed manifestation of your confidence. |
Two years ago our grear party called me
to the discharge of, the arduous duties of 1
the Chief Magistracy. When I assumed
the duties of the high office I pledged my
self to a plain, unostentatious, econom
ic*! administration of the government of
the State, and I promieed that so long as
I presided at its head there should lx* no
reserved seats at the Democratic Council [
Board. I have tried to redeem both p’.edg- j
os. I have in matters of appointment os. \
traeised no Democrat because of a differ- |
ence of opinion but have recognized all
who subscribe to the cardinal doctrines I
of Democracy ns taught by Jefferson and
Jackson, however mu#h we may have
differed in matters of detail and of mere
party policy.
I have redeemed ae far as it has been
possible to do so, the pledge for economy
in the ministration of the State govern
ment, and with the aid of co-operation of
a legislature wise and faithful to the In
terests of the people the rate of taxation
has been lowered and at tlie same time,

all of our institutions have been supported
and kept up to the highest standard of
efficiency and usefulness. Our university,
sanitarium, institutions for tho deaf and
dumb and tho blind, have been well sup
ported while our common schools have
continued to improve, the standard of pro
fessional excellence among our teachers
has been elevated, and they have been
paid as well end as promptly as at any
time in the past, and the high credit of
the state has been maintained in a man
ner most gratifying to every patriotic
Georgian.
All these results have been attained
without a resort to even temporary loans,
save in one instance, when pay the
teachers in our common schools a hundred
thousand dollars was borrowed for three
months. This loan was effected at the'low
est rate of interest at which any state or
o\'en the United States has ever been able
to borrow money.
The white people of the state are again
practically united under the banner of
Democracy. Most of our brethren who
were driven a few years ago into a sepa
rate party organization by the stress of
hard times brought about largely by vi
cious Federal legislation, have, become
convinced that there is no room in this
country for a third party, are back in the
fold and are as true and loyal to the
principles of Democracy as those of us
who have never faltered in our allegiance.
All classes of our people arc more pros
perous and contented than for several
years past. That lawlessness and crime,
which for a time disturbed the peace and
quiet of the people and brought reproach
upon our state, has largely disappeared,
and, all in all, Georgia is more prosper
ous and her people, white and black, are
more contented than those, of any other
Southern state. These results are to be
attributed largely to the unbroken rule
for twenty-seven years of an honest, just
and ever-faithful Democracy.
But our work is not done and will not
he done when the state election is over.
Our Democratic brethren in other slates
and in the Union need all the support,
moral and physical, that w<- can give
them. The work before tiie National Dem
ocracy is herculean and urgent. The na
tional election which confionts us is the
most important without any exception in
the history of the republic. The contest
will not be for party supremacy nor the
spoils of office, nor will it involve merely
questions of legislative policy, not alone
the question of a single or a double stand
ard of values, nor the question of a high
or a low r tariff. Thesp questions ordinarily
of paramount importance, pale into utter
insignificance at such a crisis. The ques
tion that confronts us is whether this
shall continue to be a republic or be
changtd into an empire. I am no alarm
ist, but 1 declare that I want to go on
record as declaring that the issues cf 1860
out of which grbw the most desolating
civil -war of modern times, were not so
fiaught with danger to the principles foi
which our ancestors fought in 177 G as are
the issues involved in the pending elec
tion. In 1860 all parties adhered to the
Monroe do trine, the. doctrines of the De
claration of independence and of the con
stitution.
The present Republican administration
has abandoned the Monroe doctrine, the
sheet anchor of the safety of the repub
lics of the Western hemisphere. It has
*pit upon the doctrine that all govern
ments derive their just powers from the
consent of the governed, and has in a
thousand ways defied and ignored, the con
stitution of the fathers. It has waged a
war of conquest against a people whom
it found struggling against a Spanish ty
rant for the right of self-government. It
has imposed taxes without represen a ion
on a people whom the fortunes of war
have put under its rule. It has by engag
ing in a war of conquest created a neces
sity for a standing army of a hundred
thousand men in times of peace, and lor
a large and expensive navy. It has ta
meet the demands for money thus mat
ed, imposed a tax of s4> per annum on
every voter in the republic, and thus built
up monopolies that have closed every av* -
nue to successful individual enteiprise.
The people who fight the battles and pay
the taxes no longer control Federal elec
tions nor shape Federal legislation. The
trusts and monopolies and combinations in
restraint of trade fostered by unj st Re
publican legislation have usurp and these
' prepogatives of the people. Our govern
ment is no longer*the republic of ’he fath
ers, but 1 an oligarchy'. The next
step is into empire. It is ‘4ho prcvince of
the Democracy, the party of the people
and of the corsiitution. to avert so dire
a calamity. 1h ? last hope for the liberties
of the people is in its success. The miss s
of the people are with us. The only hope
of the enemy Is in force and fraud and
bribery. Hence his frantic effort to rai.-c
a corruption fund of thirty millions. Thi:=
party has already stolen the presidency
once and bought it at another time. They
realize that they cannot steal it azain and
hence will go any length to buy it. Ic is
our mission to arrest them in this mad ea
rcer. Empire must be made odious. Tiler
is no room in our system for vassal
states. A British colrnial policy' can have
no place in a republic. The West Ind>
are a part of the Western Hemisphere. It
is right that we extend the Aegis of our
protection over them. In co rg so we do
not vi late the Monroe doctrine nor the
traditions of the republic. The Philippines
are a ja-t of the Eastern Hemisphere on
the o; polite side of the globe. Th re is
nothing m common between us an 1 tl eir
people. Differing from us in race, lan
guage, religion, tastes and habits. thy
cannot be assimilated, or absorbed int >
the body of the American people. We
should treat them as we promised in the
outs- 1 to tn at them, and a i we promised
to treat the Island of Cuba, exercise a
guard an care over them till trey aro
able to maintain a stable government of
’their own. and then withdraw our hand.
To do 1* ss would be Inhuman and treach

The safety and even the perpetuity of
this republic and the happiness and pros
perity of our own people demand a re
turn to the old landmarks. The policy
of imperialism, Inaugurated by the Re

well as the dinner pail of the wage earner,
must bear Its share of the burdens of
government. The way must be opened
as of old to successful individual effort.
•Men must be elevated to high official posi
tion because of what they are, and not
what they have. The Senate must, be
filled with men of brains iu*tea I of men
o.' millions'. Legisl.itlorn must he in the
Interest of the masse*, iid not of the
classes. Vbte buying and vote selling
must be mode ar, odious ns treason, for
they are treason. The United States S'*n
i ator. who buys a vote, i.- as mean and un
l patriotic as the negro who sells his vote.
Both should bo disfranchised and sent 1
to tho penitentiary. These are not Uto
pian ideas. They are the doctrines of j
Jefferson and Monroe and Jackson. They j
are the true Democratic doctrines. They i
are the diametric opposites of Republican
doctrines, and methods and practices. To
reinaugurate them, it is first necessary
to destroy the present Republican party, ,
the author and the finisher of all the woes
of the body politic—the prime cause of
the poverty and unhappiness, and want
of the last ten years, and mainly respon
sible for tho carnival of crime that has
cursed the country, for poverty and hard
timea breed criminals.
It is said cf a great Roman Senator that
his daily exclamation as he entered the
senate house was "Carthago delenda est,”
—Carthage must be destroyed. The daily
declaration of each loyal Democrat and of
each lover of the traditions of the fathers
should be, "the Republican party must be
destroyed." Destroy it and you destroy the
baleful trust, the destructive monopoly,
the oligarchy, tho plutocracy, the empire.
The rule of the people will be restored.
The number of your miil'onoires will
grow smaller, tho number of helpless pau
pers will grow infinitely less, tramps will
disappear from your highways, crime will
abate, prosperity will abound and
country will, again, become what the fa
thers made ir and what it should be—a
government of the people, for the people,
by the people.
Gentlemen of the convention, again in
conclusion I thank you and the ever faith
ful Democracy of Georgia for this renewed
manifestation of your confidence, and in
accepting tho trust your partiality reposes
in me I renew tho pledge to administer
your state government honestly, faith
fully and impartially with an eye single
to the honor and glory of Georgia and
ihe prosperity and happiness of all her
people.

The Cheosnian Gin.
Mr. J. E. Chessman, inventor of the
Cheesman cotton gin, Is stopping at the
De Soto. •
This new gin hae attracted the atten
tion of cotton growers and manufacturers
wherever It has been exhibited, Mr.
Cheesman said yesterday.
For years nothing except the saw gins
have been used in Georgia, atxl the rest
of tne cotton growing states. While this
has answered the purpose in; the absence
of anything better, there has always been
an objection to these gins. They destroy
the fibre of the cotton. In the new gin,
the inventor says, this has* been over,
cc me. It is a roller gin—has no saws.
A leather eovered roller and a set of ver
tical strippers are about all there are to
It. The cotton when brought against the
rollers by combs. Is separated from the
seed by the strippers which have a verti
cal ond an elliptical motion. The leather
covered roller takes the. lint forward,
where a brush, revolving in an opposite
direction, removes and deposits It in
receptacle, the seeding falling under the
feed table. Another Interesting and Im
portant feature of the Cheesman gin. sold
Mr. Cheesman, Is In the immunity It gives
from fire. Blazing cotton has been fed
Into It. end the gin choked It out. This
is a strong feature. As there is great
dangers always in the saw gins from tills
score. Matches are often dropped In cot
ton by pickers, and they are Invariably
struck by the old style gins.
Mr. £heesman will remain in Savannah
until Monday, then go Into Southeast
Georgia.
