DEMOCRATICJPLATFORM.
An Able Defense by the New
York Journal.
SincH tho Chicago convention a
number of so cuilcd Democratic
papers of Nu.v York and N v> Eng
' land have bolted the nomination,
' and have said that the Democratic
platform was a tissue o* Populism
and anarchism.
Commenting on these statements
the New ’l ork Journal says:
J his crusade has been one of
reckless misrepresentation from
the start. The libelers of the late
convention know that the Chicago
platform is not anarchial. In most
respects it is inspired bv enlight
ened progressiveness. The anarch-■
ial elements in the convention
Tillman and Altgeld—wore dis
tinctly frowned upon. Tillman '
‘ was hissed whenever ho rose to
speak. The mild implied criticism
of the supreme court, or rather of
the one justice who changed his I
mind, was thoroughly wi ll do-|
| s'TVed, and might have been made]
much stronger without improprie
ty. Since when have we boon on- I
plowed with infallible judges, whose '
i acts are not above criticism?
Il the advocacy of the just and
scientific principle of taxation of
largo incomes was anarchistic, t hen
every statsinan in England is an
j anarchist, and instead of search
ing (ho cellars of of the
houses of parliament for barrels
d gun powder, tho authorities
ought to search tho pockets of every
member for bombs. r J he income
lax is the backbone of the British
financial system. It is about to be
intr duced in a graduated form in
to Franc.und it alr< ady exists in
its most e: Iroine < groe i Ge
many. Th condo: iat. ; o of tl
practice of substituting govern
ment by injunction for tho old
orderly process of courts and juries
s> far from being revolutionary, is
a vindication of the ancient rights
I of t-liu English speaking race against
a novel and dangerous innovation
which deserves the name of an
archy much better than anything
done at Chicago.
■\\ o hold,’ adds the democratic
profession of faith, ‘that, the most
efficient way of protecting Amer
ican labor is to prevent the impor
tation of foreign pauper labor to
compete with it in tho home mar
ket.’
‘‘ I hat is honest, straightforward
protection—the only kind that
doos what it protends to do. The
Chicago platform demands sim
plicity and economy in government
and protests against the profligate
waste of money that has charac
terized republican legislation.
1 hat is not tho reckless spirit of a
mob; it is rather the sober utter
ances of prudent property owners
and taxpayers, of whom tho Chica
go convention was principally com
posed. The protest against arbi
trary federal interfermco in local
affairs is one w hich Jefferson would
have commended as the very
foundation stone of his political
faith. Moreover the silver plank
I in the Chicago platform does not
deserve the frantic vituperation
leveled against it. If its auth >rs
I were mistaken in their methods
their aim was to introduce bimet
allism and bimetallism is a scien-'
title theory with too much expert'
i authority on its side to brand its ;
advocates as lunatics or incend
iaries.”
In closing The Journal says:
‘“On the other side we have Wil
liam McKinley, bound hand, foot
and tongue to the most corrupt
combination that ever exhibited

ity of the democratic candidate is
so palpable as to make comparison
n' Jlcssly cruel to his opponent.
M hat then is the duty of American
. citizens who desire to secure the
best possible government for the
republic during the next four
years? Plainly it is to vote for
that presidential candidate who is
manifestly best fitted to adminis
ter the government and to settle
tho financial question through
their representatives in congress.
Gold men may vote for gold candi
dates, silver men for silver candi
nates and bimetalists for bimetal
, ists, but nobody who realizes what
.is at stake in this campaign can
i vote to abandon a government of
tho people, by the people, for the
people, in favor of a government
of Mckinley by Ilsnna for a syn

A GOOD ONE FROM KANSAS.
Remarkable Death and Burial of a
Hermit in Kansas.
A story comes from Butler coun-
I ty Kan., which is as romantic as it
is strange and peculiar. While a
I terrific storm was raging, Otto
Schaller, a hermit farmer who had
j iived there many years, took shelter
' in his cabin and was offering up a
prayer for protection when a bolt
of lightning demolished the house
and killed him. Neighbors found
tho body on the floor and sum
moned tho coroner, who prepaied
the body for burial, and in doing
so made a discovery that has been
the talk of the county. He says
Schaffer was a woman. The de
ceased was an ex-soldier, and par
ticipated in many battles of the
war. Despite this discovery the
grand army veterans turned out
and gave Schaffer a soldier’s burial.
An incident happened in the burial
services which the ohl c mrad -
believe was a .ruing sent from
God. As one of the comrades fiml
a last salute over the empty grave
into which the coffin was being
lowered it was found that the gun
was loaded with a ball as well as
power, and the shot killed a dove
that was Hying over. The dove
fluttered and fell on the coffin dead.
The deceased leaves considerable
property, but no one in the county
knows of ai y relatives.
Last summer one of our grand
children was sick with a severe
bowel trouble. Our doctor’s rem
edies had failed, then we tried
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy, which gave
very speedy relief. We regard it
as the best medicine ever put on
the market for bowel complaints.

A young man named Hutchinson
employed at Smith’s saw mill, in
Johnson caunty, Ga., met with a
ghastly accident Tuesday of last
week. He was working near the
saw, helping put logs into position,
and while pulling with all might his
foot slipped and his head fell
; against the saw, which completely
decapitated him. When the ma
; chinery was stopped his body was
picked up and found to be horribly
mutilated otherwise. His death
was witnessed by several employes
of the mill, but it occurred so
quickly that all were powerless to
prevent it.

SUMMERVILLE, CHATTOOGA COUNTY, GEORGIA, JULY 22,1896
In Memory.
Summerville Lodge No. 109 F.
and A. M. has again been called
upon to pay the last tribute of re
j spect to the memory of one
of its members.
And whereas a committee has
been appointed to draft suitable
resolutions to the memory of Bro.
E. C- Smith, who was born in
Walker Co., May 12, 1858. Was
married to Miss Rachel A-llman
Dec. 1, 1878. And was called from
labor to rest Juno 26, 1896.
Ist. Therefor be it resolved that
while mourning our loss, we recog
nize our obligation to bow to the
will of our Supreme Master above;
and to treasure in our hearts our
Brother’s memory as an example
and incentive to nobler and truer
lives.
2nd. That whilst we sorrowfully
record the demise of Bro. Smith,
we are consoled with the hope that
our loss is his gain.
But we cannot but mourn the
loss of a Master Mason as estimable
and useful a Brother so honestand
true, yet believing that all the or
dering of the Merciful Grand Mas
ter above is wise, righteous and
prompted by love, we would bow
humble subinsision to His Holy
will and earnestly pray that He
will enable us to say “Tho will of
the Lord be done.”
3rd. That the Lodge extend its
heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved
family of our deceased. Brother and
that the Secretary be directed to
spread this humbi ■ tribute to his
memory upon the minutes of the
Lodge, and that a copy be sent to
bis family, and a copy to the Chat
tooga News with a request for its
publication. Res[> jctl'ully sub
mitted.

Cut It Short.
These hints to contributors ap
pear in a market journal. They
deserve the close study of all writ
ers.
“Life is short. Time is precious.
We ask our contributors to write
every paper as they would a tele
gram that they have to pay for by
the word. Verbosity kills many
a good article. Few care to take
the pains to get the meaning of a
verbose writer. Go over your pa
pers again and again, cutting out
every word and sentence tliat adds
nothing to the meaning. Try and
give in ten words the same idea
that when first written took twen
ty. Every good writer is such be
cause his finished sentences con
! tain only the ten and not the
• twenty words. Do not string out
I .
your sentences with conjunctions.
Make them all short and pithy.
We ask you t- do this for your
own sake and the sake of your
readers. They will the better un
derst .nd ant 1 , be :.ior ■ willing to
render to you ti meed oi appr -
ciation.’’
It is said that a negro accused
of rape and anothtr one accused
of murder, escaped from the jail
at Cusseta, in Chattahoochee coun
ty, on Wednesday night. Anyway
their cells were found empty, and
no one appears to know how the
two prisoners happened to turn up
missing.

McGarrity the man,
Who Will Oppose Hon. John W,
Maddox.
Dallas, Ga , July 15.—The pop
ulist of the Seventh Georgia con
gressional district met in Dallas,
Paulding county, yesterday, and
nominated James W. McGarrity
of Paulding county, as their can
didate for congress, against Hon.
John W. Maddox.
The convention was called to or
der by S. J. McKnight, of Whitfield
county. M. L. Palmer, of Floyd
county, was made permanent
chairman.
They adopted resolutions strong
ly condemning the action of the
Chicago convention in repudiating
Teller and Bland, tho great cham
pions of free silver, and in nomi
nating a “boy orator ’ as the can
didate of the democratic party for
President.
They also condemned, in severe
terms, the nomination of Sewall, a
millionare national bank president,
for second place on the ticket.
Tho resolutions declare that
} ‘both of these nominations were
made by a faction in the democrat
ic party, antagonized by the brains,
culture and influence of the wisest
men in the party.”
Theresolutiong recommend that
“populists assemble in St. Louis
on July 22, and formulate their
own platform of principles, and
make their nomination for Pres
ident. and vice-president, without
reference or regard, so the dismem
bered democratic party.” They
recommended that delegates to the
St. Louis convention support Tell
er for President, and indorsed the
Omaha platform in toto.

For once the big daily papers
were caught napping. When Sow
all of Maine was nominated as can
didate for vice president, not a big
I daily in the south had his picture I
ready for publication, which is a
very unusual circumstance. Un-|
j der ordinary conditions the politi-j
cal prophets are able to foretell
the ticket with a reasonable degree 1
of certainty, thus enabling the pa- 1
pers to make ample preparations,
but this time the unexpected hap
pened and they were caught out.
Weak Where He Is Not Strong.
“McKinley is neither strong
' enough or weak enough to be dan
gerous. The mil'.ionare agencies :

nace to the well-being of the re
public. They would make him
pret lent not / r his sake, but for
their own. If h. b ■ instated in the
White House, Hanna and his asso
ciates wil abide there also. Per
, haps never have the American peo
ple been confronted by a situation
so grave. Never has triumphant
plutocracy been so insolently self
. assertive as in making of this nom
ination. Mark Hanna, a most of

Bab Is for Temperance.
Personally, I am a believer in
temperance, but I think people
' ought to be just as temperate with
their words as with their wine, and
‘just as temperate in their judg
: meats as with their tea. Green
i tea, taken strong, has done as
I much harm if not more than whis
i key. And yet how good a cup of
tea is—of good tea ; of that kind of
tea that, when the hot water is put
on it, sends up a fragrance like a
thanksgiving; a liquid without the
crudeness as the green tea, and
without the bitterness of tho black
tea, is tea pure and simple, amber
in color, exquisite of taste and bra
cing in effect. This kind of tea
has no bad aftertime. And so
many of our pleasures have I If
you dance all night until broad
daylight and go home with the
girls in the morning, your head,
not your heels, aches dredfully,
and the figures in the day book
waltz in the queerest sort of fash
ion. If you commence to play
cards at 10 o’clock and don’t stop
until the chimes of the milkman
are heard, you are to apt to be left
with one pink chip and no money
no money for the matinee. If you
have an entrancing book and read
until the late night and early
morning meet, how peculiar one’s
eyes feel the next day. If you eat
lobster add soft-shell crabs, and
and chicken, and asparagus, and
strawberries, that nice way in
whipped cream, and almond cakes
and a few sweets, and a little more
fruit, you like it, but oh ! how much
better does your doctor like it, and
how rapidly does your bill at the
druggist run up. There is no
pleasure in life that is a pleasure
all the way through unless it is
temperately taken. Oh, I know as
well as you do that there is always
a time when we are intemperate in
everything. We give all our love
to one man.
"When we are older and wiser we
divide it between that one man
and five small babies. With a
better return. Or else we daucei
.prance and play and are joyfully
fo' lish until some day we are tired
of it. And then we grow poky. If
we had been more temperate incur
enjoyment it have been
spread over a whole lifetime, but
we were too extravegant.
We gathered our rosebuds all at
once; we took all there were, and
behold! we never had any full
blown roses. And after all they,
are the ones Wurth having- You
can get at the heart of a rose and
enjoy its sweetness. If tho rose
bud has a heart it is so closely
covered that nobody ever finds it
out. And life is only worth get
ting at the heart of things. We
men and women hide our hearts
under fine clothes and po ite
speeches, but once and awhile the l
heart gets the better of everything
else and we know each other as we
really are. Don’t, my friend, cov

JOSE MACEO MURDEBED.
Said To Have Been Killed by Men
of His Own Army.
Philadelphia, July 15. —Cable-
grams received here from Cuba an
nouce the killing of General Jose
Maceo, brother of Antonio, the
great insurgent leader.
It is announced that the killing
of Maceo was deliberate murder
and cleancut race war has broken
out.
Since the arrival of General
Calixto Garica that loader and
Maceo have not been frindly. Ma
ceo resented the superior authority
conferred upon Garcia by the Cu
ban junta in New York, and Garcia
has been determined to assert his
superior rank.
hen the last cargo from the
filibustering steamer, Bermuda,
was land, Jose Maceo seized all the
arms and ammunition. Garcia
protested against this confiscation.
When the last cargo from the
steamer Three Friends was landed
on the coast near Juragua, Maceo
marched to the seaboard with 150
men and took posesion of the arms
and ammunition. As he was re
turning from the coast he was am
bushed and shot to death by men
whom it was asserted were from
his own army.
Printers’ Jargon.
Many people are not aware that
printers have a language of their
own, unintelligible to the uninitia
ted. The following “up-to-date”
orders give an idea of the printing
office lingo: “Billy, put Sir Chas.
1 upper on the galley, and finish
up that murder you commenced
yesterday. Set up the ruins of
Herculaneum and distribute the
small-pox. Lock up Laurier and ■
slide McCarthy into the hell box
and leave the pi alone until after
dinner. Put the ladies’ form to
press, and go to the devil and put ,
him to work on Deacon Fogg’s ar- ,
ticle on ‘Eternal Punishment.’ ” (
Now this is all simple enough
when translated into English, and '

HIRED NEGRO WOMEN.
Aud Whites Promptly Refuse to
Work by Them—Trouble in a
Rome Cotton Mill.
Rome, July 15.—The superinten
dent of the Massachusetts cotton
mill employed a number of negro
women in the weaving department

The white employes at once re
fused to work with the negroes
and nearly all left the mills.

pressed his determination to re
main firm and employ such labor
as he saw fit and to discharge ev
erybody connected with the strike.
The affair created much excite
ment and trouble was anticipated.
Efforts are being made to have the
matter adjusted.
Several hundred hands are em

“We were married thirty-seven
years,” a man said, who had just
lost his wife, “and in all that time
she never gave mo a cross word.
But I shall never forget the first
time I scolded her. One morning
when we had been married about
two years, I found a button off my
shirt. I threw the garment at her
and said in a rough voice, ‘Sow a
button on.’ She got a button and
sewed it on saying, ‘forgive mo,
husband, 1 had a great deal to do
yesterday, and I forgot it, but it
shall never happen again.’ Iler
gentle words almost broke my
heart. I could have got down on my
knees to ask her forgiveness. She
made a different man of me, and.
the world has been a different
place since she died.”

Two thingi in life are absolute
ly certain—death and sorrow ; and \
these two, about which there is no
contingent, alone possess the pow
er to surprise us. All that is
problematical we are ready for,
and accept without raising our
eyebrows; but to the figure of sor
row, whose shadows fall athwart
our path a short journey alnad
and death, who awaits at its end,
without clamor, since he is sure of
us—to these wo say, “It cannot
be! It is impossible !” We count
upon the uncertain, but the inevi
table surprises us.—Marietta Jour
