THE HUSTLER OF ROME, SUNDAY OCTOBER, 21 1894.
A I Al t l S NECESSARY
We fail to see how any good
Democratcan doubt the propriety
of a legislative caucus to nomi
nate a senator to be elected by the
next legislature. We see in some of
the news papers which are support
ing Mr. Turner an inclination to
create the impression that the
friends of the other senatorial can
didates are opposed to a caucus,
(he idea sought to be conveyed be
ing that Mr. Turner, representing
the extreme element of the party,
cannot look for help from the
Populist members, whereas some
of his opponents may reasonably
entertain such a hope.
We do not know what justifica
tion these papers have for these
insinuations. We have seen no ex
pressions in opposition to the
holding of a caucus. On the con.
trary, wherever the matter ha
been mentioned at all in a Demo
cratic newspaper it has been ac
companied by an expression in fa
vor of a caucus, so far as we have
observed.
As we have already stated, we
see no reason why the propriety’ of
holding a caucus shonld be doubt
ed. As we look at the matter, a cau
cus is absolutely necessary, if the
Democratic party is to reap the
fruits of the victory won by it in
the last election.
With a Populist n.eniLert-hip of
fifty three iu the general assembly
prepared to vote f rlhe candidate
who has been least active iu his sup
port of the Democratic party, or who
iu ins views approaches closest to the
Popuiist standards, we m-y be sure
that no Democrat notable for the
zeal of his services to the party or for
the orthodoxy of his Democratic be
lief can be elected to office unless he
has beeu nominated by a caucus.
He would be beaten otherwise
every time by the combination of D'.s
ivais with h’s P >pnlist enemies.
The Tel eg iap a desires to see Maje-r
Bacon elect iu t > tLe b smate, but de
sk < s him elected on ly as a repre—
sentive of the Democratic party, ff
he c mnot be e!e< tt-d except with the
help of Populist vote , then the Tele
graph wili be heartily m fav r of that
Democrat who can be elected by
Democratic votes only.
We do not doubt that M’ j. Bacon
aas this stuie feeling himseli ; that hr)
esires to oe a Democratic senator,
not merely a senator. If opposition to
he holding of a caucus shows itself,
.ve ue'u ve that it will be based on a
lesire to use the P pulist strength
m electing Democratic officials. The
persons tl r ugh waom th i oppoai
ion manifests itself ought to be
looked upon with suspicion.—Macon
Telegraph.
There is fun in the Ninth Con
gross of New York, where Republi

Here’s the pome:
My sweetheart’s name is Aggie Wood,
and she’s a love I }’ girl.
Whenever I am by her side
My heart is in a whir ,
The lovely hair that clusters oe r
Her brow so pure and white.
Would put to »hame the fabled tints
That shade the wing of night.
HeiJ eeih are fairer than the pearls
From Afric far away.
But when I gaze upon h r charms
I’m tilled with dire dismay.
Fow can 1 tell but what she takes
Those teeth out of her head,
Anil h n ;s that hair sc’oss a chair,
When’er she goes to bed.
And tha phimpbre st that now appears
So perfect aud so full;
Is made of cotton batting,
Or is the filling Wot 1?
