eh* Commercial WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 23, 1874. 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. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. WORKING PEOPLE— MaIe or Female.
