M. A. WRENCH, Editor and Proprietor.
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1882.
Thb party man who kicks after the
election, may be said to ha re the amir
gripes.
The election of Governor Colquitt as
■enator ia most favorably received by the
preen of the country.
k aoM the number of contents proposed
the integrity of the next congress will
t>e thoroughly tested.
TniCitir.cn editor prognostfcah** as
sadly deficient in judgement over ths
choice of U. 8. senator as lie has in
other matters of the past.
How would Joe Brown and Alfred 11.
Colquitt do for President ami vice Presi
dent in 1884? The party-nt-large may
need spins of their kind of hosa'ng.
To ovr mind there is a dishonest dang
about the how) of “Georgia bossism’’
from those fellows who have been so
loud in their denunciation of Indepen
dent! Mil .
Tut Atlanta Constitution says that
the re-districting of Georgia eleven
yc*rs ago was for the purpose of demo
cratic success, but now, as the negro
districts have proved the most reliable
democratic strong holds, and the white
districts have given the only trouble, it
suggest districts of the most compact
formation. Now, let the curtain drcp.
Tub Georgia malcontents, or those
who stood to the organization’ which
they claim, after the election, to be in
the hands of a combination of bosses,
talk about reorganizing for the nextelee
tion. Bro. Whitman seems to be tick
ling the Lail of the forlorn hope up this
way.
Wz announce, to-<lay, by request’ a
list of young gentleman for alderinim.
The selection of names is a bold nifcve
on our local chess board, ami while it
may occur to some people as a mere
prank, we know that the ticket is ten
dered in good faith. They are all capa
ble representative young men of the
best elements of our community. They
are thoroughly trained in the practical
requirements of life, as is evinced by
their individual successes. Every in
centive which could inspire their offi
cial sanction must look to Dalton’s fu
ture progres. We like(the ticket.
Tub recent outbreak of small pox st
Chattanooga, and the scattering of pes
tilence from that quarter all around us,
admonishes providential citizen
that something should he done to pro- I
tectour town. There is, at all times a j
regular influx of Chattanooga people
kite our place. Wherever enforced
vac i tuition has, been*.,resorted to the
disease has been stamped out. Atlanta
evidences this fact. Our city Esthers
should act at once. The cost would
only be a few hundred hundred dollars,
A tew cases would cost thousands.
Vaccination is most needed, where it
can only be reached by enforcement.
Thu Citizen attempts monstrous se
verity at the vote of Senator Jones for
Gov. Colquitt for U. 8. Senator. We
cannot surmise why this running over
of bitterness on the part of its editor after
the battle, when, if he represents a ma
jority sentiment as he claims, and has,
at no time before pulled his glittering
blade, in defence of a wronged constitu
ency. His present slogon sounds too
much like “Ain’t we brave, Nancy.”
The fact of the busines is that Mr. Jones
took every opportunity to reach the sen-
timent of bis people, as to the senatorial
contest, ami Colquitt, of all those before
the legislature, was their choice. More
than one'attempt has been made to turn
thia county against Colquitt, and each
time has I wen so disgracefuly insignifi
cant us to the make his opponents the
laughing stock of the community for
their weakness. Ho has made a good
governoa—he will make a better senator
—may be not not so brilliant as Hill—
but more conservative and useful. The
reflection that he is to be the tool of
Brown is as contemptible as it iegratui
tous.
Io the last Gainesiville Southron,
Hon. Emory Speer comes out in an open
address to hie friends, thanking them
for their devotion to his cause, in w hich
he assures them that w hile success did
not make him vain glorious, defeat can
not make him despondent. He assures
that he is young and »trong, and has a
useful and popular profession, which
will employ him; and that he returns to
the people his commission as representa
tive, with the proud consciousness that
be has done his duty.
At the late election in New York City,
a Democrat pa mod Wm. 11. Kennedy,
and a Republican who was also named
Wm. H. Kennedy, were candidates for
Coroner. The result showed that Win.
H. Kennedy was elected, but as there
was nothing on the ballots to inilieate
which Kennedy was the lucky man,
there appears to be no way of deciding
the question. The Democrats claim
that their Kennedy was elected, while
tlie friends of the Jiepiil>lican*Kennedv,
contend with equal plausibility, that
tlieir candidate won the race. It is an
interesting muddle.
TIIE SPIRIT OF I>ISF.UPTION.
Nothing more full) illustrates the pecu
liarities of Georgia politics,perhaps,than
the recent.charges and consequent dis
cussions growing out of the U. S. Sena
torial election.
The Arhus has held up on the ques
tion, not from the same motives which
impelled the Rome Courier, but not en
tirely from unselfish instincts. We
have felt from the first issue of the Ar
hus, considering its phenoniinal popu
lai ity, that there was a mission for its
coming, and if it shall, in ever so hum
ble a manner, do no more than blaze the
way for the eventual obliteration of war
sympathies and passions from our poli
tics, and entomb them in the sanctity of
the southern heart, only as a memory
of the valor of our section, we shall feel
that a duty has been well performed. ,
From the standpoint of a common na- i
tionality, echoed and re echoed from the ■
highest sources of our body politic, it
cannot but appear to the thoughtful ,
and candid mind as both inconsistant I
and hurtful to reflect the sunshine of j
confederate glories ami the shadows of I
its passions over and around the selfish
struggles of local aspiration. It is like*
the ghoul work of the grave yard,ami the
dragging of the drapery of mourning into
the sloughs of filth and vice.
In this work we bane felt that the sur
est amidmost patriotic method of the
undertaking was in bringing men face to
face in the bitterness and contention of
opposite issues, thus nerving them to
the call that should come in the interest
and glory of a common country.
Sentimental‘democracy at the south
baa so solidified its body as to cast a
suspicion of folly at the efforts of all
contending elements arrayed* against
its embankment, and uur work has only
been as the eb and tide, softening and
drilling the movable particles of its bulk,
that the unbalancing of its gravity
might result in a new party of princi
ples, which shall become a responsible
factor Indore the;people, and force poli
tics to a higher plane than the mere sus
picious and bickerings of personal dis
appointment.
Thus we,have thought it the work of
patriotic policy to.lndulge in no side
sharp shooting where actual engage
ment wasjineyitable,;'from,the very na
ture of the inharmonious results sure to
follow the disappointments of the incon
gruous elements massed together in this
state ns a solid political family.
Wv have cherished ;the belief, from
the very first coming of Gov. Colquitt
into our active state polities, that it was
an incident looking to the final oblitera
tion of organized solidity, and we have
never lost faith. Diflerring from inde
pendent leaders, we have also nursed
the consolation of Gov. Brown’s final
acceomplishrnent of events which are
now sending their flickering shadows in'
to every nook and corner of the state.
And while never doubting the political
manipulations of Gov. Brown, in which
Singular happenings have followed in
rapid succession, we have pacified our
inclination to indulge discussion in the
interest of local contests, by the higher
consolation of what was sure, to follow.
Whatever might have been the pur
poses and ambitions which have again
drawn Gov. Brown into the agitated
cauldron, or the maneuvers which have
insured his success’s, he has at all times
represented a conservative and progres
sive sentiment entirely in sympathy
w ith our own ; and we do not believe that
he has overstepped the bounds of legiti
mate politics in his scheming.
The ; Macon“
one element of Georgia democracy, has
persistently charged all manner of trad
ing, corruption, and combination as the
I p >wer,of Brown and Colquitt.
Ibis has followed through a respecta
ble element of papers,
from.various sections.
oaThis smothering volcanic tire was
patched ovar the bursting leaks in the
gubernatorial convention, but has never
been quilted.
The indignation meeting at Augusta,
sailed by the domineering utterances of
the chronicle, the enthusiastic reeep
tiou of Black’s speech before the legisla
ture, and the character of his generali
ties, indicated a disntfeCtion, the danger
of which can only be soothed by the pro
fessions of party loyalily by the agita
tors.
The necessity of Goy. Brown’s recent
letter, in which he feels called upon to
deny the existence of bossism in Geor
gia, and to appeal to the generosity of
the young democracy, this year so lib
erally recognized, as an evidence that
the party has really fallen into new
hands, andjdl that is done is the effect
of popular, overpowering expression of
the people.
The Rome Courier criticises Gov.
Brown’s letter and points to it as the
clinching evidence of his determination
to make Colquitt C. 8. Senator, and
apologetically -admits a belief in the
“capital understanding” between
Brown, Colquitt ami Gordon, and the
present election of Colquitt as the final
of the transaction. The simple apology
of Courier for not sooner expressing it
self, was that it was so much interested
in the defeat of Dr. Felton, and was
afraid to complicate tlie canvass in this j
• Harriet, with an idea which had been '
Dr. Felton’s chief capital in his various
races—that of bossism and ring power.
We simply revert to these facts as an
e\ idence that politics shall not become -
j pacified in Georgia even with a solid del
egation of democratic congressmen, and
that those who have gone into this work
of regeneration with a consciousness of
right doing, may take courage. The
skirmish has just commenced.
> The only vexed question is, as to
which aide the Independents (ball be-
i come a part.
PUBLIC SENTIMENT.
Reeklemlyi Expressed by Various Opinions of
these Nauxhtv Times.
Vennor predicts a succession of cold
waves for December.
A perfect flood of prohibitory and
( local option bills deluges the Legisla
ture.
The Macon Telegraph estimates that
about 75,(MX) white men in Georgia never
cast a vote.
An Augusta minister says that lawyers
oppose prohibition through policy, and
editors through ignorance.
The Atlanta Herald fears that after
this general assembly adjourns a new
revision of the code will bo necessarily
in order.
Senator Baker introduced a bill Mon
day making betting on elect ions a crime,
and its adoption would undoubtedly be
in the interests of public morality.
It is to be regretted that the Macon
Telegraph has pitched into Gov. Ste
phens at this early stage of his adminis
tration because he has issued a few par
dons.
The proposed amendments to the
constitution of Virginia abolishing the
capitation tax were adopted by the peo
ple at the late election by a large majori
ty-
It is grieving the friends of Blount and
Hardeman that they must both be
thrown into the same district and the
one, or the other, necessarily deprived of
a re-election to congress.—Herald.
The distinction of being the youngest
member of the Forty-eighth congress is
supposed to lie between George Yaple,
of Michigan, and John E. Lamb, of In
diana. Both are under 30.
The Post Appeal says: It is quite
probable that the Legislature will ad
journ at an early day. In that event, an
adjourned session will be held next sum
mer.
“Gath” predicts that the manufactur
ing fever in the South will develop a
protective tariff sentiment that will
overwhelm the Democratic anti-tariff
papers, and compel them to change their
tactics.
Senator Blair, of New Hampshire,
says: “This country is a young man’s
country. It is ruled by its young men.
The young men are to the front always,
and always must be. Old issues are al
most entirely exhausted.”
We believe, with Governor Stephens,
that the general assembly can finish all
its essential work in forty days limit. If
It does not do sc, the people will know
who to blame for the doliance, delay
and cost. In the above sentiment the
Arhus fully agrees with the Atlanta
Evening Herald.
There seems to bo it general desire in
the legislature to avoid any gerryman
dering schemes in the re-districting of
the state. The call is for close compact
districts. The fear is that should a ger
rymander be apparent there will be
many independent revolts in the next
congressional campaign.—Herald.
With two such men in tho senate as
Brown and Colquitt, Georgia will be far
in the lead of the southern states in
democratic ability and character. Both
gentleman are pronounced protection
ists, and are among the most progres
sive and useful statesmen in tho coun
try . —Chattanooga Tiines.
An increase of the salaries of tho
Judges of the Supreme and Superior
Courts is urged, on the ground that the
best legal talent of the State should be
called to these positions. But is there
in the State any better legal.talent than
that possessed b» the lawyers who seek
the bench with the present salaries?—
' Rome Courier.
The follow ing Washington dispatch of
the 19th inst., is published by the Post-
Appeal: Emory Speer, who was defeat
ed for re-election to Congress, from the
9th district of Georgia, denies the report
that he will act with the Republicans
this winter, and declares his intention
of asserting his independence by going
back into the Democratic party.
The following opinion from the
Greensboro Herald is worthy of consid
eration : “In our judgment the six offices
of sheriff", clerk of the superior court, or
dinary, tax receiver, tax collector could
in nearly every county in the state he
filled by three men as well as six. If
this be true, then the duties of those I
several offices could be discharged with !
less expense to the government, and atj
the same time with greater eompensa- i
tion to the office-holders.”

Cleveland has been cleared awav.

The blood is the foundation of
life, it circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition; and also that
all the iroti preparalions hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Brown’s Iron Bitters will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the bloo.i, purifying and strengthen
ing it. a:i 1 thus drive disease from
any part of the system, and it will
not blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or const’] ation, and is posi
tively n„i injurious.

Gents;—Upon the recommenda
tion of a friend 1 tried Brown’s
Ikon J‘i iters as a tonic and i -
storative for try daughter, who i
I was thoroughly convinced was
wasting away with Consumption.
Having lost three daughters by the
terrible disease, tinder the care of
eminent physicians, 1 was loth to
believe that anything could arrest
the progress of the disease, but, t<
my great surprise, befoie n.y daugh
ter had taken one bottle of Brown’s
Iron Bi fters, she began to mend
and now is quite restored to former
health. A fifth daughter begun to
show signs of Consumption, and
when the physician was consulted
he quickly s. id “Tonics were re
quired and when informed that
the elder sister was taking Brown’s
Iron Bitters, responded “that is
a good tonic, take it.’*
