Thursday, may 26, 1898.
Entered in the postoffice at Lincolnton, Ga., as
tecond class matter.
, Hon. .1 It. Hogan for Governor.
ple’s ^At partv the state held convention in Atlanta of 18th the Peo¬ inst.
J. B. Ilogan, of this comity,
nominated for Governor; Felix
N. Coob, of Carroll, for attorney
general; and W. P. Glover, of Bibb,
for commissioner of agriculture.
The nomination of -Mr. Ilogan was
cs complete surprise to his friends
^ ere. No one suspected that the
at the convention would
tints honor a Lincoln county man.
We know, too, it was equally a sur
prise to Mr. Ilogan himself, for Gin
coin county, which was entitled (o
two delegates, was not represented at
all. Certainly had he desired the
nomination he would have seen to it.
that his home County was represented
in the convention.
Now that he is nominate 1 there is
considerable speculation as to
or not he will accept. On this ques¬
tion his friends differ material! v. A
large number think that he should
make the race, and that with an
aggressive campaign he could easily
be elected. There are others, how
ever, who hold to the opinion that
it would be impossible to elect any
Populist governor this year, and for
this reason lie should politely decline
the honor. In this latter class are
found some of his warmest friends.
We believe Mr. iiogan will give
the matter his careful consideration,
and the conclusion lie reaches will
be for what he deems the best interest
of his party and the reform cause.
It is-hoped that Hon. J. It. Hogan
will accept the nomination tendered
him. He is able, honest, conserva¬
tive and safe, and would make an
excellent governor.—-Daily Tribune.
The Populist convention which
convened in Atlanta Wednesday,
nominated Hon. J. It. Hogan, of
Lincoln county, for governor. Mr.
Hogan has been a member of the
legislature for a number of years
past, and is a man of recognized
ability and integrity.—People’s Press.
Mr. Hogan has been the represen -
tative of Lincoln county in the
'Georgia legislature for six years and
there is no better man in the state
than lie for governor. He is simply
a plain farmer possessed who has of the plenty conli- of
horse sense, a man
and respect of his opponents,
and if elected will h 11 the position
with credit to himself and for the
best interest of the people at large.—
Jackson Economist.

Spanish Fleet Destroyed.
The daily papers yesterday con¬
tained telegrams gi'ing rumors of
the annihilation of the Spanish Cape
Verde fleet. The news, however, is
not authenticated. The Associated
Press has news from London that the
American squadrons have destroyed
G’erevera’s fleet. A special cablegram
from the New York Journal’s London
correspondent says that the whole
city of London is excited over the
published reports that a great battle
has been fought in the winward pas¬
sage, and that the American fleet has
completely annihilated Cerevera’s
squadron.
A Madrid telegram received in
London says the Madrid authorities
have received bad news of some kind,
either oi Cerevera’s defeat or his
bottling up in Santiago harbor.
There are at Key West, hurry or¬
ders to get all hospitals in readiness.
I 11 Madrid yesterday there were
grave consultations. It is thought
the Spanish government has received
of disaster toils Cape Verde fleet.
As soon as a dispatch boat arrived 1
at Key West yesterday work was be¬
gun at the hospitals getting them in
readiness.
The Mangrove, which was with
the Oregon, is reported with block¬
ading squadron off Cuba.
Tlie Populist Candidate.
From the Macon Telegraph.
J. G. Hogan, nominated of Lincoln county,
has been for governor by
the Populists, lie succeeds Thomas
F- Watson as the field-leader of his
party. Mr. Hogan legislature. is at present He a
member of the state
is not known, as Mr. Watson is out¬
side of Georgia, but, before the cam¬
paign is over, lie will probably enjoy
a wider fame. On the stump lie will
prove formidable, for he is a man of
eloquent voice and impressive man¬
ner. in the legislature he has proved
himself a skilled parliamentarian.
He is very courteous to his opponents.
ILe does not engage in mere rodoino
tade. He is not a shrieker. Outlie
contrary, he is a man of sober mind,
thoroughly convinced that he is in
the right, fearless in assertion and
profoundly read in economics. He
is quite the beat champion the Pop¬
ulists of Georgia could ha^c selected,
after Mr. Watson, and really we do
not know but that he will prove a
more brilliant campaigner. It all
depends upon his disposition to make
a hard fight.
Against such a speaker and so sin¬
cere a man as Mr. Hogan the Demo¬
crats of the state should put up their
very best. man. If they underrate
him they will make a serious blunder.
No man of ordinary capacity should
be sent against him. He has studied
his subject. He is fluent and plaus
able. He is quick to seize the weak
points lie of an opponent’s He argument,
has a logical mind. is not
given to wild ravings. He is cool,
adroit and not easily daunted. He
represents that element of the Pop¬
ulists of which Polk was, in his day,
the type. He is unquestionably the
most skillful fencer the Populists of
Georgia could have seat to the hus¬
tings iit this time.
The Populist nominated the follow¬
ing gentlemen Wednesday: For gov¬
ernor, J. G. Hogan, of Lincoln ; for
attorney-general, Felix N. Cobb, of
Carroll; for commissioner of agricul¬
ture, W. P. Glover, of Bibb. lion.
J. G. Hogan has represented his
county in the general assembly for
two or three successive terms and
was Populist leader in the last ses¬
sion and his election is sure. Col.
W. L. Peek, of Rockdale, and Vancy
Carter, of Hart, were also in the race
but Hogan beat Peek by two votes
and Carter by several.—Gedertown

The Best Remedy for Rheumatism.
From Eairhtiven (X. Y.) Register.
Mr. James Rowland of this village
states that for twenty five years his
wife has been a sufferer from rheu¬
matism. A few nights ago she was
in such pain she was nearly crazy.
Site sent her husband for the doctor,
but lie had real of Chamberlain’s Pain
Balm and instead of going for the
physician he went to the store and
secured a hot.le of it; His wife did
not approve of the purchase at first,
but nevertheless applied the Balm

able to go to sleep. feels She now applies
it whenever she an ache or a
pain and finds that it always gives
relief. He says that no' medicine

GOOD ADVICE.
When buying Monumental Work
it is well to first be assured of the
honesty and ability of the Dealer.
Patronize your home dealer if pos¬
sible. Avoid agents, its additional they are
unneccessary, and are an
expense. Be sure the contract speci¬
fies what yon want, and more certain
the work" fills the contract before
paying. Eemember there is no ex¬
cellence without great labor, and no
great excellence without skillful
labor. You should therefore buy
a proprietor who is a workman. -The
