EDITORIAL NOTES.
A POUTICAI, ADVENTCBEB
AmoDg the brilliant discoveries
made by Felton in his trip to the up
per part of the District is that Col.
Trammell is called ‘‘an unscrupulous
political adventurer.”
That a man like Felton should
handy about such a term as “adven
turer” against a native born citizen
of the State, of mature age, loDg ex
perienee in politics and lor years el
ected to various offices by the people
of his county, of his Senatorial Dis
trict, and by the Georgia Senate as
its presiding officer, is a plain proof
that be does not appreciate the proper
application of the term. Any man
moderately acquainted with the mean
ing of terms, will understand that
this term “adventurer,” in its true
sense, is applied to Felton rather than
to Trammell.
GRAND DISCOVERIES MADE BETWEEN
SATURDAY BEFORE THE CONVEN
TION AND FRIDAY AFTER
THE CONVENTION.
That it would uot do to run against
Col. Printup, Col. Dabney, Col. Lester
and Col. Bass—they were all so
strong before the people. That Tram
mell instead of being “strong before
the people” as he thought, on Satur
day, was really “very weak befr rethe
people!”
“ I told my most intimate friends,
at 12 m., on Wednesday, if Tram
mell was nominated, I should contest
every inch of ground with him until
November, because hits election would
ruin the Democratic party . I liked
him very much on Saturday before,
and was no more opposed to him than
anybody else then, but I have found
out his election will ruin the party.”
CAUiISU I 011 HELP
Some gentlemen of Bartow call on
Judge Wright to help Felton, and by
way of encouragement tell him the
people will remember him and reward
him, by an expression of their confi
deuce. Now it seems to us if these
gentlemen are authorized to speak in
the name of the people they ought not
to want help. If the people want
Felton they can get him without help.
But they are going to reward the
Judge. Here is a promise of official
promotion in the future for present
help. This is a patriotic motive and
cornea very appropriately from those
pure and dis interested patriots who
are shocked at the corruption of the
Democratic party. If it could be shown
that Trammell and his friends had
agreed with Col. Dabney to reward
him for liii help, what a howl would
go up fro 11 reformer Felton! Bar
gain and corruption! Ring! Wire
pulling !
Blit Judge Wright says “these gen
tlemen are not, and never have been
politicians.” They are going to “fight
against politicians and newspaper
men” Very well. We say, “Lay on
McDuff.” “Would itnot.be better to
try and have a fair Convention" asks
Judge Wright. It is welljknown that
we made every effort to have a fair
Convention. But those who are now
calling for a fair Convention stood
aloof. Felton and his partisans not
only stood aloof hut denounced Con
ventions. Where then is the propri
ety of this call ? It conies from those
who not only refused all our iuvita
.tions and earnest appeals to come out
and aid us with their counsels and
their votes in perfecting and purifying
the organization of the Democratic
party, and send delegates to a fair
Convention reflecting the voice of the
people. That was the proper time
for a “ true Democrat" and a true re
former to come to the work. Are we
after all this to change front in the
face of the enemy, an I that too at the
bidding of men who say now that they
are wholly opposed to Conventions.
If the people cannot get up an honest
Convention in this district, there is no
hope for them. But it is not true
that they cannot. Are those whom
Felton and his co-workers call “poli
ticians news-paper men” wire-pullers,
tricksters, actually the majority ? If
they are not, why cannot the people
come out to the. county and district
meetiugs and carry things their own
way. “What Mr. Editor ought I to
do? Is the voice of these people to
be disregarded ?”
These people offer you a fair re
ward for your services, friend Wright.
If you think the reward sufficient, and
the pay certain, we do not see why the
bargain should not be struck, as all
your sympathies are with that class of
men. This is a fine beginning for a
party of reformers opposed to bar
gains, intrigue and corruption.
The Judge asks “what shall I do to
be saved ?”
If we might presume to advise
Judge Wright we would say that he
never had a better opportunity to
perform yeomanly service for the
Democratic party than now. Let
him come with us under the old flag
and fight it out with the Radicals ;
aud after the smoke and dust of the
conflict shall have drifted away, let
us go to work and perfect and purify
the organization, so that no man shall
be able to say that it does not bring
out the voice of the people.
At the battle of Seven Pines, it was
stated that a sprout of distinguished
pretentions approached General Long
street and asked if “he would permit
him to go into the battle as an inde
pendent.” The Gen. replied, “no, I
find independent fighters are not to be
depended upon.” There was much
wisdom in the reply, and it is equally
as applicable to the field of politics as
the army. In Congressional cam
paigns, independent candidates are
about as unreliable as independet
fighters.— Leesbury Washingtonian
If Felton cannot save the Demo*
cratic party," with the aid of the Rad
icals, what will become of it ?
JIOCE WRIGHT ASh COL. HAY.
Yesterday we published a letter
from Judge Wright —to-day we pub
lish a reply from Col. May. The pub'
lie will regret, no doubt, the shape
matters are taking. If the letters
show nothing else they clearly indi
cate the beautiful harmony existing
among the Democrats of Floyd coun
ty. In the absence of any suggestion
of our own we direct the attention of
both the Judge and Colonel to that
text found in the fiflh chapter of Ga
latians and fifteenth verse.
How many Radicals are to be elec
ted to the Legislature, and to various
other offices in this Congressional Dis'
trier, to compensate them for adopt
ing Felton as their candidate for Con.
gress ? Look out for some of the two
millions which the holders of fraudu
lent bonds propose to spend to get up
a Legislature that will recognize their
fraudulent claims.
TOO THIN.
Ou Saturday, August 29th, 1874,
W. H. Felton told CoL Wofford at his
office in Cartersville, that his candi
dacy was no more in opposition to Col.
Trammell than to the other candi
dates. That he knew Trammell and
liked him very much, and found him
stronger before the people than Young
or Waddell. He intended to run no
matter who should be nominated at
Calhoun. He could beat the nominee
of that Convention.
On Friday, the 4th of Sept., six
days later, this same Felton said at
Rome that if Col. Printup, Col. Les
ter, Col. Dabney or Col. Bass had
been nominated he would have given
way, placing his retiring upon the
ground of his esteem, admiration and
love of these gentlemen.
Here was a plain contradiction,
which being exposed, must he ex
plained.
The explanation is, that, in a trip
to two or three of the upper counties
Felton discovered before twelve o’clock
M., on Wednesday, the 2d of Sept
four days only after the explanation
to Col Wofford, that there were no
fewer than/our candidates who could
beat him, and that Trammell instead
of being strong was really very weak
before the people. These wonderful
discoveries he stated to his intimate
friends upon getting home at 12
o’clock ou Wednesday. We are not
favored with the uames of these inti
mate friends. Discoveries so won
derful thus rapidly made ought to be
well attested.
Down here we were led to believe
his declination would have been indu
ced by his hirh appreciation of the
character and qualification of the four
gentlemen named, while to his inti
mate friends lie revealed the some
what different reason that they could
not have been beaten by him, as he
boasted they could to Col. Wofford.
let .iinik i: in: done.
We have desired all along, to pur
sue a temperate and conciliatory
course towards those sincere DeniO'
crals, who were disappointed in the
result at Calhoun They heard many
vague rumors, prejudicial to Mr.
Tiammell, during the canvass. The
friends of the other candidates had no
interest in setting these charges right.
Indeed these rumors against a strong
competitor improved their own chan
ces. Thus Mr. Trammell enters the
campaign under a heavy load of un
just accusation. Now we put it to
every fair minded man to say wheth
er it is just to condemn and pronounce
against Col. Trammell unheard? Does
such a course comport with the char
acter of a great and magnanimous
party? But if such a course would
be unjust to Col. Trammell, it will be
serious to that great party to which
all true Democrats took for deliver
ance from the evils of Radical rule.
Shall we rend in twain this party
for no higher purpose than to gratify a
prejudice against an individual which
may be nay is unfounded ?
Have we weighed all the ruinous
consequences which may, yea must
result from such a course?
Is it not known tnat the Radicals
will either run a candidate of. their
own or adopt Felton— stipulating for
reciprocal aid in another direction ?
Does any man believe they will sup
port Feltou without an equivalent f
Who will undertake to say that Fel
ton’s alliance with the Radicals may
not result in giving the Radicals sev
eral members of the Legislature from
this Congressional District. We
speak of an alliance, because we be
lieve that Felton and his friends have
taken steps looking to Radical coun
tenance and support for Felton. We
have no doubt that Major Hargrove
has been consulted. He cau, in our
opinion, exercise a more potent con
trol over Felton than any dozen Dem
ocrats in Floyd county.
Let Felton tell you, Democrats,
whether he has not been in correspon
dence, verbal or written, by himself
or through his friends with the leaders
of the Radical party. His Demo
cratic friends owe it to themselves to
bring him out upon these points. Let
him be called upon to speak out.
As far back as April last, it was in
contemplation to have Felton nomi
nated by Grange influence if possible,
or.that failing to run him as an inde
pendent candidate. This plan was, of
course, confined to a few. In corrob
oration of this, Felton wrote to the
master of Rome G range more than
two months before the Calhoun Con
vention on the subject of his candida
cy. It is uot probable that he confined
his correspondence in this line to the
master of the Rome Grange. His
blarney towards the farmers in his
earlier speeches was with like purpose.
Thus it appears he designed to draw
the Grangers unwittingly into his sup
port, for a political office against the
armed principles and purposes of
that order.
Who believes the radicals are goiDg
to vote for Felton “to save the Demo
cratic party"
Kellogg- longs r it eet.
The Federal Government, with its
fleet and army, may overpower the
Fatriots of Louisiana—as seems to be
the aim—and restore Kellogg, the
usurper, and Longstreet, the black
hearted traitor, to power, but the
doom of these two miscreants is sealed.
If nothing else can reach them the
assassin’s knife should be employed.
Death at the hand of a paid hireling
would be too good for such ignoble
villains.
Has Felton came to an under
standing with his Radical friends on
the subject of a candidate being iun
by them ? It is very important to
his success that they should run no
candidate, but accept him as their
candidate. We think that is the pres
ent policy of the leaders.
As the representative of the Radical
party he will be in a fine position “ to
save the Democratic party .”
A FAIR PROPOSITION.
“When the county of Floyd is
made, after a declaration of the vote,
to nominate the candidate against the
expressed pledge of one of the dele
gates, ought it to stand ? If so, what
fraud would be sufficient to set aside a
nomination ?” — A. R. Wright.
Col. Trammell was nominated with
out the voce of Floyd. However we are
authorized by Col. Trammell to say
that if the Executive Committee of
the Democratic party will say that he
was not nominated and nominated fair
ly, at Calhoun, he will retire. Col.
Trammell asks nothing unfair and
regards the interests of the Democrat
ic party as paramount to any man’s
claims or aspirations. If Judge
Wright is really seeking light, let him
investigate the subject. He is too
honorable, we trust, to desire to do
any man injustice.
DeKalb county had a rousing rat
ification meeting on Wednesday, at
which speeches were made by Messrs,
M. A. Candler, Dr. Miller and others.
Mr. Candler’s speer.h is reported in the
Atlanta Const’tuiion, and we find and
print, with much uuctiou, the follow
ing (xtract from it, which ought of
itself to elect him to Congress. He
said :
You have heard distinguished men
say that Gen. Grant, though the bead
of the pany, is better than the party
itself. They say it is better to have
him in power, even though you should
have an empire; in fact, a one-man
power and a strong government, to
get rid of this measure —the Civil
Rights hill. Better submit to that
lest a worse evil come upon you.
Away with all such trimming and
tinkering! Away with all such
crooked paths and by-ways ! Let us
inquire for the good old paths of our
fathers. Let us return to the old
landmarks. Let us see that they are
clearly established by the light of tiie
Constitution The good old ways of
honesty and patriotism followed by
Washington and our illustrious fore
fathers. This is the only safe high
way to our country’s prosperity, and
no matter what others may say, let no
Georgian say that he wants Grantor
any body else for a term that Wash
ington would not accept, [immense
applause] no matter who recommends
it.
Democrats! avoid bolts and “in
dependent” candidates. Stand by
your nominees, if you have a party
whose success is important to your
principles and interests, and whose
organization is worth maintaining.—
Columbus Enquirer.
If tiif. bond holders can get a ma
jority of Radicals elected to the Leg
islature they will secure their plun
der, and the taxes will he largely in
creased.
Judge Wright’s “friends” are
seeking to induce him to imitate Ben.
Butler and commence a war 011 news
papers. Well, if the Judge can stand
it, we think the newspapers can.
Feltou told Col. Wofford that he
was aiming to carry out a great prin
ciple in his candidacy. A few (k,ys
after he concluded to run “ to save the
Democratic party."
We learn that the respectable por
tion of the Elmore county ,_ Alabama,
Republicans have withdrawn in dis
gust from the party.
Valuable Figures. —A German
work, recently issued, contains the fol
lowing statistics :
The globe is peopled by 1,391,032,-
000 souls, distributed as follows : Asia,
798,000,000; Europe, 300,500,000; Af
rica, 203,000,000; America, 84,500,-
000; aud Australia and Polynesia, 4,-
500,000. The leading Christian na
tionalities number respectively : Rus
sia, 71,000,000; Germany, 41,000,000;
United States, 40,000,000; Austria,
36,500,000; France, 36,000,000; and
the British Isles, 32,000,000. The
largest city in the world is London,
with nearly three aud a half millions
of inhabitants; the second isSutchau,
in China, with 2,000,000; Paris ranks
third, then Pekin. New York is tenth
on the list, and Philadelphia eigh
teenth. There are only nine cities in
the world that contain a million and
more of inhabitants, and seven of these
are in China. The Celestial Empire
alone numbers 425,000,000 people,
and India, which is chiefly under
British rule or influence, 240,000,000.
Lemon Juice in Diphtheria. —ln
a clinical lecture by M. Buquoy, de
livered at the Hospital Cochin, Paris,
he expressed his preference for lemon
juice, as a local application in diph
theria, to acids, chlorate of potash,
nitrate of silver, perchloride of iron,
alum or lime water. He uses it by
dipping a little plug of cotton wool,
twisted arond a wire in the juice, and
pressing it against the diseased surface
four or five times daily. A gentle
man in Charleston, who has tried it in
the case of two of his own children,
testifies to the remarkable efficacy of
very strong lemonade, administered
internally, in the treatment of diphs
theria.
The Yellow Fever Story.
The story that came to us yester
day, says the New York Herald, to
the effect that yellow fever had inade
its appearance on the Gulf and At
lantic coast seems to have been a
coarse and cruel cotton-jobbing can
ard, started at this time to affect the
price of cotton. There is no sign of
the epidemic whatever, and there is
no fear of its appearance at this sea
son of the year.

TIIE GREAT REMEDY FOR
CONSUMPTION
which can be cured by a
timely resort to this stand
ard preparation, as has been
proved by the hundreds of
testimonials received by the
proprietors. It is acknowl
edged by many prominent
physicians to be the most
reliable preparation ever in
troduced for the relief and
cure of all Lung complaints,
and is offered to the public,
sanctioned by the experience
of over forty years. 'When
resorted to in season it sel
dom fails to effect a speedy
cure in the most severe
cases of Coughs, Bronchitis,
Croup, Whooping Cough,
Influenza, Asthma, Colds,
Sore Throat, Pains or Sore
ness in the Chest and Side,
Liver Complaint, Bleeding
at the Lungs, &c. Wistar’s
Balsam does not dry up a
Cough, and leave the cause
behind, as is the case with
most preparations, but it
loosens and cleanses the
lungs, and allays irritation,
thus removing the cause of
the complaint.
