MR CEO. T. MURRELL*
The fries da of this gentleman are
urging him to nuke the race for
Commissioner of Agriculture, and
we learn that he is now considering
the matter.
We hope Mr. Morrell will decide
to permit the use of bin name, and
feel no doubt of bis election. He is
one of the most intelligent and suc
cessful planters of Clarke county,
and occuples a prominent position in
the Farmers’ Alliance, and baa been
from its suit one of the warmest and
strongest champions of that organi
sation. Bat aside from these claims,
Mr. Murrell is peculiarly fitted
this place, for there is not a clearer
beaded farmer in Georgia, or a man
who belter understand* the interests
and needs of our agricultural ele
ment. With Geo. T. Morrell at the
head of our Stale Agricultural De
partment, the farmers conld rest
sured that they bad a friend and
protector on whom they conld place
the most implioit reliance, for
would stand by them to the end, and
be has the manhood, courage and
Year by year the people have seen
their taxes increasing, and the hard-
earned money wrongjfrom them taken
to pay expensive office-holders, who
filled positions created especially for
them. Nepotism has played a high
hand, and entire families fed and
fattened at the public crib. Men
straggled and grasped for office, and
their first act was to lay their wires
for an increase in salary. Every oflU
cer was surrounded by high-priced
assistants, generally selected from
his own family. The patient and
long-suffering people have bcroe this
burthen only too long, and are now
in open rebellion. The Alliance will
lead the charge oa this hoary band
of pap-snckers, and they will be
rooted, too, horse, foot and dragoon.
The farmers are having made a new
broom of retrenchment, and it will
sweep things clean, Urn. They
will make no fight on faith fal offi
cials, but those who have heretofore
relied on the influence of professional
politicians to keep them in office,
and have used their positions to far
ther their own selfish ends, and ens
rich their kindred and supporters
at the expense of the toiling masses,
will find, like Othello, their occnpa-
