Lons— The Qaarrelaoma Repabliesn Elements
of O -orfiu at the Capital w.th Their
Orlcvonoea-Capital Gossip, Eio
■Washington. January 19.—[Speciul.]—
■Georgia politics arc getting badly mixed at
the capital over tbc cradle of the new coali-
tion. A family quarrel has already arisen
■which clouds the prospects of the young hope
ful. General Longstrcet, Janies Atkins, Wal
ter Johnson, postmaster at Columbus, Tom
Johnson, collector at * Savannah, and
Mr. Arnold, . postmaster at Albany, are
in consultation with the administration
•as lo the best methods to break up the demo
cratic rule in Georgia. They represent the
ideas advanced in the recent accidental con
ference at Atlanta, and insist that the only
■way to buildup the new party is by coalescing
•with the independents, and a libera! use of
federal patronage among the prominent dem
ocrats who may be induced to join the move
ment.
Andrew Clark and Chairman Buck. of the
state committee, are here represent
ing the pure republicanism and
Jelling the administration how
devilish siy the average independent is.
They want to carry out the programme recent
ly announced by their committee in Atlanta.
They are willing to have a coalition with the
independents, but want the light to be made
by the republican party with as many allies
as may choose to eonie.
Both factions were busy to-day maturing
plans, and the friends of each claim for it the
favor of the administration. It
is somewhat remarkable that neither
•of these elements of Georgia republicanism
lias invited the co-opetwtion of the colored
•Georgia leaders, though some of the most
prominent of them are in the city. They
•naturally feel that their intlucncc is being
disposes! of without their knowledge or con
sent, and among them are signs of dissatis
faction, which lias long existed in the colored
masses. That none of the proposed schemes
-can count on solid negro support is already
•evident. It does not seem possible that
tbc two factions now pressing
their views on the president
-can lie harmonized, and a preference to either
will disaffect the other. This, with the
threatened revolt of the colored leaders,
makes the Georgia problem look like a ten
•cent puzzle.
Governor Bullock is here, but not on a po
litical mission, as chairman of the committee
■from the late tariff convention. He called
with other members, on the president to-day
and will ask a hearing before the committee!
of congress on the pruposed modification of
the tariff. The governor thinks there is a fast
growing protection party in the south, and
does not apprehend any important change in
.the present policy.
I’crwonal, Political and Peripatetic*
■Washington, January 17.—[Special Corres
pondence.]—One of the wildest assertions
■ever made was that of an afternoon paper
few flays ago, that Senator Brown had been
approached and asked to take the lead of the
new Georgia coalition.
The administration and the Washington
agents of the coalition are too well acquaint
ed with the senator's sentiments to dream of
such a proposition
His instant, and somewhat huni.-rous state
ment, that the item was news to him was not
necessary to rob it of credibility, either here
■or in Georgia. This new phase of the Geor
gia movement seems to have originated in the
fertile brain of the journalist. • — •>.-
In Georgia’s congressional delegation, sen
ate and house, there is but one man who i:
■expected to countenance or aid the effort
to “revolutionize” the politics of the
state. I mean Mr. Speer. Tliere are those
among his friends who predict that lie will
not join ttife new movement, but will attend
strictly to business in his own district.
Thus the work here for the coalition must
lie done by ouiside parties for the most part,
if not entirely.
Collector Andrew Clark is in the city, but
he does not pin his faith to independents.
His theory is that of other prominent repub
licans in Georgia. They are willing to make
a stand against the doiuinanparty, but pre
fer to do it as republicans, und not as fusion-
ists.
Georgia lias pnispcred so well under “bour
bon” rule, as they call it, that it is hard tosee
where the coalition thunder for a change is to
come from.
Judge by the first bugle blast from the
leader, the campaign is lo be waged against
individuals rather titan any particular party
principle. The glossary of abuse will need
enlargement, for alreudy a good part of it has
been called into requisition.
ARREARAGE OF PENSIONS.
Some senators, while commending Mr.
Beck’s strung assault on the frauds of the
pension system, think the question was inju
diciously agitated. That there is a gigantic
awinJle they admit, but the abuse lias gone
rather far to be remedied now. Many ot the
arrearages have been paid. To cut them oil
now would be to pour upon congress a torrent
of applications for equity.
Besides this, enough lias already developed
to show that neither liouse will consent to a
■repeal of the act.
A democratic senator sprung the matter in
a spirited speech, to be answered in a speech
of as much spirit hv another democratic sen
ator. While Beck and Voorhees were wrang
ling, Ingalls came in for the only real capital
to •'.<! made of the discussion by off ring a res
olution declaring the sense of the senate
against the repeal of the act.
INTERNAL REVENUE.
It lias been shown that but for this big leak
in the national money-chest the present un
equal internal revenue system could be en
tirely swept away.
Mr. Clements, of the seventh, is going
to introduce a bill to abolish the system any
way. lie has studied tiie question carefully
and is prepared to stand strongly behind -his
measure.
Mr. Stephens has often expressed himself
on this question. He regards the present sys
tem as an imposition of an unjust burden
and tiie restriction of the rights of the citi
zen.
Senator Brown speaks of it as an * excres
cence on our institutions."
It appears that Georgia is going to lead the
attack on the internal revenue.
It will be stoutly defended by the rcpubli
cans. It is one of their pet institutions. It
.gives a big addition to the governmental pat
ronage. Revenue officials scattered through
out the country are perhaps the most activ
of federal servants in support of the party in
power.
A solid democratic support cannot by any
means be counted on in either house or sen
ate in an effort to abolish the system. The

a hard question to handle. Through the j
ability and energy of Colonel T. 1*. Westmore
land, of Atlanta, the case was pressed in
the courts until it was appealed lo Wash
ington. where last winter a compromise was
had on the condition that the government
pay Mr. Lloyd $9,000 in satisfaction
of his claim. It is now necessary to have a
bill passed before be can receive the money,
but no trouble in the further settlement of
this ugly matter is anticipated.
AN IDEA FROM GEORGIA.
The constitution of Georgia has been
soundly abused until it is becoming tiie fashion
at home among some of our politicians to
sjieak lightly of it. Tliere is in it, however,
one provision that congress is thinking of im
itating.
A bill is now pending before the house to
regulate the appropriation of money on the
Georgia plan. When a sum over $19,000 is to
he voted away, the bill provides that
shall require a vote of a major
ity of all the members of the house
and not simply a majority of those present, as
is now tiie case. Republican congresses are
pretty free with the nation’s shekels, and the
Gill may not pass, but it deserves to becoipe a
law.
THE PRESENT SESSION.
Calculations on a long session are well based.
Congress has had live working weeks and
there is nothing to show as their result ex
cept a preparation for what is to come.
The session may be said to be at its begin
ning now. When it will end no man cun
tell. The big minority in the house has al
ready shown that it means to be felt in the
deliberation of the popular branch, while the
senate with the ponderous person of David
Davis delicately divided between both sides,
keens a charming equilibrium.
Tiie rush of private bills lias been
unprecedented. The entire number
of bills introduced in' the
last congress was aiiout 7,000, and already
tfiis prolific session lias brought forth 4,000
with the prospect of myriads more. Com
mittee work is no tun now.
siierman’s bill.
The senate continues to fire away at John
Sherman’s funding bill—the chances against
its passage, as offered, becoming stronger
every day. The democrats generally seem to
be pressiug the Carlisle amendment. Senator
Teller says the thing can’t be doctored or
trimmed so as to meet bis approval. He is
against it finally and forever.
The bill cannot pass with its present pre
visions tending toward perpetuity of tiie
national debt and restriction of silver coin
age. Sherman realizes that, and in his old
character of the “artful dodger,” is preparing
to make the most of it. He has already
linked his name to tiie measure, and however
much it may be changed he will claim it as his
child and assert that it is really just such
a one as he wanted all the while. The aver
age fox could study the primer of cunning
under the long Ohio statesman.
Sherman is about the worst speaker in the
senate. At his first word lie strikes a harsh,
monotonous tone to which he sticks all the
way through.
He tries to talk fast, and getting his words
tangled has frequently to go back to smooth
them out. Frequently he hesitates for the
appropriate expression until lie becomes plain
ly perplexed. His gestures are usually made
with the long finger of the bony right band
in a sort of “I told you so” fashion.
His speeches read better than they sound.
The scant use of adjectives and the rare ap
pearance of the metaphor remind one of the
Anglo Saxon simplicity of the junior senator
from Georgia.

Augusta, January 20.—Andejson Jones,
colored, was hanged here to-day at four min
utes past one.
The crime for which lie suffered the death-
penalty was one of the most brutal ever re
corded in the annals of the courts. It showed
a blackness of heart rarely developed in
criminal trials.
John G. Haralson was a young man who
kept a small store at McBean’s station, only a
few miles from the city. He slept in his store,
as is usual with most village store keepers.
On the morning of the I6th of December,
1879. be was found in the store brutally
murdered. A ghastly wound on
the head, from which the blood had
oozed and clotted upon the floor, with a mur
derous and bloodstained hatchet laying close
beside the corpse, told of the terrible deed of
the night before. There in that quiet village
the cowardly assassin liad enacted one of liis
most brutal deeds of blood.
The first knowledge of the crime came to a
Mr. William H. Haralson, a bruther of the
murdered man. John G. Haralson, the young
man who conducted the store had determined
to visit Augusta on the 16th of December by
an early train which passed McBean at four
o'clock in tiie morning. For fear of being un
able to awake in time forthe train lieengaged
Anderson Jones, a colored man, to awake
him at the appointed hour. His brother,
William II. Haralson, had agreed to open the
store and carry on the business while lie was
away. On the morning cf the lGtli
the store did not open as usual.
But this fact was' nothing strange to
the Haralsons, who thought tiie proprietor
was away on a purchasing tour in Au
gusta. About noon Mr. William H. Haralson
went down to the store to open it.
according to promise. Everything ap
peared in order. Not a door nor
a window was out of its accustomed
place. Everything wore that quiet air which
can only be found about a deserted village
store. The young man bad a duplicate key,
and fitting in into the lock be turned the
bolt and pushed the door in. As be did so a
pet dog which had been confined
the room sprang out with a bound and
ran off. He appeared unduly excited, and
the young man hardly knew what to expect.
He entered the store and was horror-struck
with the spectacle which greeted his eyes
He retraced his steps and quickly spread'the
news of the friglitiul crime.
An investigation was instituted and a chain
circumstantial evidence was gathered
which was overwhelming. It developed that
Anderson Jones had agreed to awake Haral
son in time for the morning train, that lie
boarded that train and came to Augusta alone
and that other evidences of guilt were
against him. He was arrested and
May following, these facts and others
were produced against him at a trial

ty. lie was convicted and sentenced to be
hanged. His attorneys moved for a new trial
which was refused and the case went to
the supreme court. A new trial was
granted but a second conviction resulted,
The evidence, although circumstantial, was
overwhelming and few people, if any, in this
county doubt that Jones committed the crime
for which he lias just been banged.
Recently his friends, principally among the
colored people, have exerted themselves in
his behalf. A petition fora cummutation was
sent to Governor Colquitt, but he declined to
interfere. At the last—just a day or two be
fore the execution—an effort was made to se
cure for him a week’s lease of life,

decision to let the law take its course.
Jones’s demeanor in the juil has been much
to liis credit. He was a good prisoner and al
ways kept quiet and behaved well. He de
clined to receive visitors and talked very
little toward the last. During the
past few days he grew dejected and wished
to be left alone. He shuddered when a day
or two ago -tiie jailer, Mr. Bridges, told him
that the governor had declined to interfere,
and that all hope was lost.
The gallows was erected in the side yard of
the jail to the southeast of the building out of
sight of the public. It was of the old plat
form style with ropetrigger, and trap door and
a fall of about 8 feet. The prisoner was guarded
during the last two or three days of his con
finement to prevent self destruction.
He was taken from the jail shortly be

was adjusted and the trigger sprung at four

by the fall and liis death was easy
A few minutes after the execution the fol
lowing written confession was produced and
substantiated by a confession made to the
jailer, who was sworn to secrecy:

In his confession made to the turnkey.
Jones said that on the night of the murder
he went to Haralson’s store to pay him some
money that he owed him. He hid an ax on
his person and secreted it in the store. Har
raison, after counting the money received for
the day. placed it in liis pocket and lay down
on a bench in the back room of the store.
Jones was in the room playing with Harral-
son’s little dog. While playing with the dog
he slipped the ax behind him and struck his
unsuspecting victim two blows on the head,
killing him instantly. Jones kicked the body
to see if there was any life in it. He then
robbed the murdered man of forty-two dol
lars wiped the blood off the axe with leaves
and returned to the mill close by.
Everything was quiet and no special excite

assure you it will not hurt you in the least, a
little tingling sensation and all is over.”
IIA well known physician of this city was
very busy yesterday with various mem

fear of small-pox was rampant in the breasts

remarkable curative powers have been proven in
many thousand cases, and, actuated by the desire
to relieve suffering humanity, I gladly assume the
