The Latest About Local and State
Political Moves.
Ex-General Master Workman Sovereign says
the story of the effect that he and Debs and other
labor leaders during the Pullman strike were in
vited to commit high treason is true. He states
that a plan of rebellion against the government,
drawn up by two Chicago lawyers, was submit
ted to the labor leaders for consideration. The
scheme contemplated the formation of a pro
visional government in the west, with a plan of
campaign toward tlje east.
“Won’t it be lovely when we girls vote?” said
Mrs. Bobleigh. “Yes,” replied Mrs. Giddithing.
“Only I do hope they’ll leave rooqj enough on
the ballots for a postscript.”—Washington Star.
The editor of the Darien Gazette says’that Mr.
Cleveland is going so do what he thinks is right,
if it hurts every sorehead in the country.
The present, county officers will have suc
cessors elected in October, 1896, according u>
the new election law, but as they were elected
for a term of two years, they will probably hold
over until January, 1897.
Mrs. Cleveland is ill. She took a severe cold
on New Year's day during a reception at the
white house. The draughts through the old
5! mansion are responsible for the trouble. The
white house has tor years been untit for the et.e
. CUtlve residence; still congress will not remedy
the evil Probably when the nation is called
Upon to mourn the loss of a President or his wife
~ because of the damp walls and chilling draughts
I in the old building, congress will open its eyes
' to the situation.—Savannah News.
A year or so ago Senat or Walthall of Mississippi
resigned. He had just been re-elected for a
long term. The term he was then serving, and
for which he resigned, will not eml until next
March, when the term for which he was re-elec
ted will begin. Senator Walthall’s resignation
was accepted, and Mr. MeLauren was chosen to
fill the unexpired term. It seems to have been
tacitly agreed that Walthall could not resign
for the term not yet begun, because he had not
qualified for it and had no control over it.
When the Senate of the next congress is called
to order, he will go forward to qualify for the
new term. I'liis is probably the first ease on
record in which a senator who resigned his
senatorship still had a senators!!’p left him.
The Savannah News thinks it is greatly to be
regretted that Congressmen cannot quit playing
politics long enough to enable them to do a lit
tle legislation for the benefit of the country.
The Tennessee legislature will makea thorough
and searching itivestigati »n into the charges of
fraud committed in the November election.
This will necessarily take several weeks of its
time, until which limenoofffeial announcements
will tie made as to who was elected governor.
But if the charges are sustained, and there is
good ground for believing they will be, Turney
will be governor for the next two years. No
doubt, the investigation will develop some
curious fact* with reference to the enforcenv nt
of the election law in East Au n >n

Every county in Georgia held an election
some da., s since foe county officers, and dem
ocracy came out on top. Not a county was lost
and several were redeemed. The populistsex.
perienced a heavy loss everywhere, and the re
sult elearlv shows that the people are deter
mined to have the local government remain in
the hands of the d mocrats. The canvass was a
very quiet one, there being no stump speeches,
and' the press of .ieorgia did most of the work.

Tuesday, a populist, in nominating one of
the men w hom the fusionists in North I'aro'ina
have elected to the. senate, declared that the
populist am! republican parties “havemarried.”
If that is so. we cannot imagine that the g. o. p.

Ex-Gov. Pattison, whom the Philadelphia
democrats have nominated for mayor, seems to
enjoy the distinction of being about the only

Tom Reed seems to be the favorite presiden
tial possibility with the republicans in the
North Carolina legislative. It is alleged that
already deals looking to a Reed delegation to
the republican national convention are being
made at Raleigh.
The Macon County Citizen says it fully agrees
with Speaker Crisp when lie said that the pres
ent situation should uot be permitted to remain
long. A financial system which puts it in the
power of anyone to deplete the treasury of gold
and to compel the government to increase in
terest-bearing obligations by the issue of bonds,
is vicious, and should be corrected as speedily as
possible No obstacles should hinder demo
cratic congressmen from uniting on some legis
lion that w ill correct it as soon as possible
Congressman Bryan, of Nebraska, probably
, thinks it is the privilege and function of the
government to make “money” of anything it
pleases, and to elnb the iiii.n who refuses to ac
cept it lor wl a. it purports to be. He has intro
duced ;i bill to make ii a misdemeanor, punish
able with live y .ns of imprisonment, for any
person to present to the treasury greenbacks or
treasury notes and demand coin for them “for
the purpose of embarrassing the government."
His evident purpose is to strike a blow at the
people who draw gold lor export. The effect of
his prop, s 1 law would be that a person might
gel into jail lor iskim: for money that he could
spend when and where he saw fit. —Savannah

— , (y H e Q; .
A Suggested jleep ’
To the Editor of The Argus.
I see in The Argus that we now have
an organization of business men, who
desire their fellow citizens of the north
and east with their capital and enterprise
to assist them in the pleasure and profit
of developing the resources of our county
and state, and as confidence is a neces
sary basis of successful co-operation, and
it is known that the minds of the north
and east at least to some degree are abused
as to our characteristics social, civil and
r ligious it might be well f< r the pres
ident of said organization to request all
persons who have come to us before and
since the war, to certify, first, how long
they have been with us; second, from
what state or nation, and third, how
they and others were received and
treated by us. I suppose there are over
50such persons in our county who would
willingly respond, and their answers
could go with other valuable information,
and would be accredited. 1 am ac
quainted with some who have been with
us over 50 years.

Si Plunkard Coming.
Farmer J. C. Lewis, the Yankee Com
edy King, and his talented company of
twenty first class star artists will appear
at the Dalton opera house next Tuesday
night, in that laughable Yankee Comedy
drama, Si Plunkard, the only Yankee
Comedy founded on rural life away down
East. 'There are would-be imitators of
Mr. Lewis’ success, but no equals, so the
public are cautioned against these tin
principled parties, and bear tn mind
there is only one Yankee Farmer Com
edy, Si Plunkard, so do not confound “Si
Plunkard” with playsofa similar char
acter, as it is entirely different both in
plot, scenes and incidents and far su
perior in every respect. Since the great
Si Plunkard (which is the original Yan
kee Farmer Comedy) there has been a
number of so called Yankee farmer
pitces put out, of similar ch trader, to
try and mislead the public by trying to
copy our street parade, but there is only
one Yankee Whistler, one Yankee Com
edy, one Yankee Farmer’s Parade, and
that is Farmer J. C. Lewis’ Si Plunkard
Co, which will appear at Dalton Opera
House Tuesday night. Reserved seats
