THE AUGUSTA TRIBUNE.
What It Says Of Mr. Fleming.
Mr. Fit ming is a man of
servatism and experience. He is
not a hairbramed fallow with a
mouth like a windmill eternally
dapping and onlv making a noise,
but a man who lias given deep
study to state subjects and whose
opinions carry weight, with them
when expressed. It would be
nothing short of a calamity to sup
plant a solid man like Fleming
with an erratic visionary like Hur
dwick. Boasting Hint ho will ad
dress himself to repealing the
fourteenth and fifteenth amend
inents-au impossibility-lie would
arouse again the old bloody shirt
issue and sectionalism wliLh it
wastlie mission of Populism to
allay. No Populist can vote tor
waver of the bloody shirt, and
Mr. Hardwick is that.
But were Mr. Hardwick the
equal of Hr, Fleming in abiltv
ami sxpofionce, which he is not
were tliers ne 1 difference) between
,
the two candidates iu their pro*
fessions, when m everything Mr;
Fleming is nearer Populism than
Mr. Hardwick ; wore the Democ
racy of the two candidates us near
alike as two black eyed peas, still
no Populist could vote for Mr.
Hardwick because of his lutoler
nnoe toward Populists iu iho days
when tho Democrats were moving
the powers of earth and hellfo
beat Tom Watson. It is reported
tjiat Mr. Hardwick is adroitly rp
pealing to Populists to knife Mr.
Fleming in this race on account of
what liichipoiid county did in
those days.f’Hue l^pufisMt^ili
not bv caught ff.h «nch •tutf.
Among the most. ra«j t d ot these
inost. int.oleraiit Washinto moss
backs was Mr. Hardwick. For all
lie poses uow ns a lover r>f Popu
lists, who believes fhut a Poputists
is just a little bit better than any
body else, he never developed this
love for populists till he wanted
their votes to put him iu office,
When the Pjpulists wero making
the fight in this district which
drew attention aud admiration of
th« world, and Democrats were re
sorting to everything low and vile
to defeat them, this sumo Mr,
Hardwick who now professes to
Jove the Populists so much was
tlm must hitter of their enemies
and most violent, in denoucing
them. At home in Ins own conn*
ty he was one tlm chief workers of
tho iniquity which held down a
large Populist majority, and stilt
lm had talent of this sort to spate
to helpehcwhere. In Augusta ho
mad a speech, Augut 20, 1895, he
Showed his fairness toward Popu
list* by urging that “iu this elec
tion we behold tlm final death
struggle of a disheartened but
throughly desperate and dangerous
opponent,” whose doctrines, lie
declared, “tend to array class,
rich against poor, which lead to
paternalism, socialism and nnar
«hy,” Ho advised that in a gov
ern.ent liko ours tlm lietto.’ clas-*
of our citizenry (tho mossbackDe
inocrnts)muBt asserts themselves
(stuff ballot boxes) or the worst
tho Populists will ruin and wreck
it,in the whirlpool ot Populist
anarchy."
During all that tune Mr. Flem
ing took no part in the wild or
gies of Democracy, poliiieal de
bauchery and Populist denuncia
tion. It was Mr. Fleming who
was the first Democrat who had
the coiirogo to recognise the Tri
bune, then the Woll-Hat, the de
spised and ignored little “third
party pr.rtv” paper published in
the woods, and who had the man
hood over signaturo to advocate
fuinuea and political tolerauce,
while Mr. Hardwick was sawing
the air in veignu.g against “Popu
list anarchy,”
Mr. Flaming wasn’t and intol
crant part ism then any more than
he is > w. lie then had (he man
hood to cohtend tor .fairness for
Pnpu< sts. j«*tf «g„be is now has
U.J ma- h^od'fo vote neiiinscDein

they tiro wrong. And Mr. Hard
is the same old moss back,
Nvlfii now’yaya he would vote for
‘partly right or ... ong, who de
nounced' Populists as “dangerous
anarchist*” in 1805.
The, Populists will elect the re
present at ve in the Tenth d istrict
year, as indicated above. If
Mr. Hardwick should be pieced it
would present the Populists of
the Tdnth in a most unfavorable
light to world.
But the Populists* ot the Tenth
district will not do this. " r -
Hardwick may tlnitk lie is bur
ning them for fools, but he will
find when the vites are counted
that he has lost his ashes.
—Augusta Tribune,
An Average Man.

Ah old writer tells a story of a
man who prided himself on his

us onCu a
Scotchman to build n fenre around
his lot, and gave him very parti
cului direjtious a* to his work
I » the evening, when the Scotch
man came in from his labor, the
man said:
“Well, Jock, is the fence built
and is it tight and strong?”
“I cannot say that it is all tight
and strong,” replied Jock; “but
it’s a go3d average fence, anyhow,
If some parts are a little weak,
others aro extra strong. 1 don,t
know but I may have left a gap
hare and there, a yard wide or so;
but the I made up for itbydoub

sulo of Iho gap. I dare say that
that die cattle will find it a very

that it is perfect,

the cattle will be sure to find it,

niust be perfect or it is worthless?
1 “I used to think so,” said the
drv Scotchman; “but I hear you
talk so much about average mut
tors with tho Lord , seems to me
that wo might try it witli the cat"
G e . If nn average fence won't do

average character won't do iu the
Day of Judgement. When I whs
on shipboard and storm was driv
mg us on the rocks, the captain
cried. ‘Let go ihe the anchor!’
n,e mate shouted back:
There’s a broken link in cable.'
Did the captain say when hoard
that, ‘No matter, it s only the one
link; tlm rest on iho chain is good
ninety-nine of the hundred links
are strong; its average is high; It
only lacks ono per cent of being
perfect; surely the anchor ought
to respect so excellent a chain,
and not break away from it? No,
indeed. Ho shoutedw ‘Gotnooth
tr chan!
lie knew that the chain with one
broken link wne no chain at nll.
Tlmt he might as well throw the
anchor overboard without any ca
ble as with a defective one. So
with the anchor of souls. If there
is the least (law in llu> cable it is
uot safe."

“Having lived a very active life as wife
and working partner of a busy minister,
my health failed me a few years ago. I
lost my husband about the same time,
and gradually 1 seemed to lose health
and spirit. My daughter is a confirmed
invalid, and we both felt great need of
an tnvfgorator. _
