Saturday was a great day for
Democracy of Baldwin county.
Hon. F. G. duBinion, chairman of
the Slate Democratic Executive Com
mittee, Hon. Allen 1). Candler; the
Democratic Candidate for Governor,
and Congressman C. L. Bartlett ad
dressed the voters ot this county last
Saturday in strong and telling speeches.
The State Democratic Executive
Committee determined to open the
State campaign in Baldwin county and
to redeem it from the partial hold of
Populism, wnil arrangements were
made for Col. Candler and Mr. du-
Bignon to speak fiere Saturday. The
Executive Committee ot the county
was notified and arrangements were
made to have a grand Democratic rally.
The speakers arrived in the city on
th* Georgia railroad train at 10 o’clock
and were met at the depot by a com
mittee and escorted to the hotel, where
an informal reception was held for an
hour, during which time the Apollo
SiUer Band discoursed sweet and in
spiring music, on the front veranda.
Many of our citizens went to the ho-
t'd and shook hands with Col. Candler.
About 11 o’clock Mr. Candler, Mr.
duBignon and Mr. Bartlett walked
Irom the hotel to the Court House
$ pjare, where a platform had been
erected for the speaking. A large
crowd of Democrats and Populists had
gathered and after the Band had play-
11, Col. J. D. Howard-in a few very
happy remarks presented Hon. F. G.
duBignon. As Mr. duBignon arose
he was given a most cordial greeting.
He said that it was a pleasure for him
to come back to old Baldwin, as it was
a home corning, he loved the good old
county tor it was here that lie was
born and reared and that it was her
people who had first honored him with
political office, and while he would not
talk very long at this time lie would
come back at a later date during the
campaign and render all the assistance
in his power to redeem this county In
all the past and glorious history ot
Georgia, from the time it became a
state "to the present, Baldwin county
and this old capital city had been a star
in its diadem. All past traditions ap
pealed to the people ot this county to
support the democratic ticket, and the
maintenance of the state institutions,
built and supported under democratic
admintrution appeals to the voters. He
asked if there was a democrat, a popu
list or republican among his tiearers who
could tell him who the man was the pop
ulist party had named as their candidate
tor state Treasurer. He knew his
name was Oobb and ttiat was all be
knew about him, and that all the 1 op-
ulist candidates were practically un
known.
Mr. duBignon held the close atten
tion of his hearers and the words, he
spoke made a deep impression upon all,
auu there is no doubt that they will
b. ar fruit in the October election.
Capt. T. F. Newell introduced Col.
Candler in a very happy style. He said
that Col. Candler’s father was born in
this county and that we would claim
him as her grandson.
Col. Candler made a very clear and
comprehensive statement of Demo
cratic principles. lie said that he was
a Jeffersonian Democrat. He stood on
the Chicago platform. There was very
little difference between the principles
advocated by the Populist party and
the Democratic party. He had advo
cated the free and unlimited coinage of
•liver before the. Populist party was
dreamed of. He did not believe that
because a Democrat favored the gold
standard be should be driven from the
party, as the free and unlimited coinage
was not a cardinal doctrine of demo-
in a speech in Madison that the Demo.
cratic. Executive Committee had bor
rowed state money from Treasurer
Hardeman, when Mr. Clay was chair
man. He read a letter from Senator
Clay branding it as false, and he de
nounced such politics in strong terms.
lie said*tlmt the present leaders o!
the Populist party were self-constituted
leaders. He told the negroes present
that the Georgia negroes were ahead
of their race in any other state
in the United States and t he
Democrats had made them what they
are. His speech made a deep impress
ion upon Populists hearers, and many
of them will east their votes for him
in October.
After Mr. Candler had concluded
Col. ,J. D. Howard introduced Con
gressman C. L. Bartlett, who was
greeted with cheers. Mr. Bartlett is
quite popular in this county, and has
never failed to get a majority here in
the congressional election. Mr. Bart-'
lett lirst spoke of State issues, He
said that every one knew that Georgia
was going democratic, but lie wanted
to see Baldwin county tall in line.
He spoke of the necessity for Baldwin
county, with all ot her state interests
to elect a democratic representative.
He then went into national issues and
told of the circumstances leading up to
the late war. He said that he had vo
ted for war because he thought that the
honor of the country demanded it. He
spoke of the many gallant deeds ot the
Southern men in the war. The coun
try was now united. He favored the*
annexation of Porto Rico, but was op
posed to the annexation of the Phil-
lipines, as it would bring entangle
ments with foreign nations.
He bad opposed the war revenue
bill because it placed the burderi of tax
ation on the, poor and exempted the
rich.
The democrats of Baldwin county
were greatly encouraged by the day’s
proceedings and great enthusiasm will
be shown from now until October.
Baldwin county will be back in the
democratic column at the fall election.
