A Mitchell County Executive Coni'
mitteeman’s Racy Statement.
Prom the Albany Herald,
Pelham, Ga , May 6, 1904
To the Editor of the Herald, Al¬
bany, Ga:
In a short report in yesterday’s
Herald of tho mass meeting at
Camilla yesterday, you grave the
resolutions that were adopted,
etc., and stated that the Demo¬
cratic Executive Committee was,
at the timethe Hera’d was issued,
in executive session, and that it
could not be stated at the time
what their action would be.
A quorum o£ the Executive
Committee was opposed to the
cal’iKgrof the meeting, and was
not present at the so-called meet¬
ing Friday.
As you have turned on tho
light and rung up the curtain on
the “-comic opera;” that part of
it in which the scene is h id in
Mitchell county may be of pass¬
ing: interest.
1 On the mornlmt of the 21st nit,
the Dem erat’c Executive Oom
Lrfttw* of Mitchell conn tv met arin !
i consolidated ✓ , the , vote , of , the
j primary and announced the re¬
sult# of the same. The chairman
then stated that delegates to the
Congressional and State Conven¬
tions were in "be elected. Messrs.
•T. B. Lewis and J. W. Everett
were thereupon elected to rep¬
resent the county in the State
Convention, and Messrs. J. J.
Mize. C. M. "Hages. S. S. Bennett,
R. D. Hush, E. M. Davis and
Dawson " eve selected to attend
the Congressional Convention.
This latter delegation, be it re¬
membered, went to Albany and
regularly served in the conven¬
tion.
Judge W. N. Spence, as the
State Convention delegates did
not suit him, circulated a. petition
and got a majority ol the Execu¬
tive Committee, during the latter
part of court week, to sign it
It requested the chairman of the
committee‘to call a mass meet¬
ing to “elect delegates,” etc., “to
the Stale Convention.” This the
chairman -did, in open violation
of'the rules governing the Mitch¬
ell County ^Executive Committee,
as the rules-expressly state that
the chairman can call the com¬
mittee together, but he is given
■no other power.
In the meantime, the secretary
of the committee issued creden¬
tials to Messrs, Lewis and Ever¬
ett, and stated that he recognized
them as the regularly elected
delegates to the State Conven¬
tion. These credentials were
presented to S. S. Hen-nett (Ben¬
netti3 Judge Spencers nephew
in-law), chairman^of refused the com¬
mittee, but he to sign
them.
As the policy being pursued by
Judge Spence *nd his nephew
in-law was considered likeiy to
disorganize the party and breed
independentism in the county
again a counter-petition signed
by a majority of tne Executive
Committee, stating that some of
them had signed the first petition
inadvertently and under a mis¬
understanding as to its real char¬
acter, asking of Charman Bennet
that by the same power with
which he had called the mass
meeting he then call it off. This
Bennet refused to do.
Judge Spence role over the
county several days before the
meeting, getting out his kinsmen
of whom and the tenantry of
whose “new” partner the “mass”
meeting was largely composed
and securing the proxies of such
eommittemen as would give them.
Ho obtained the proxy of one
gentleman of the committee who
did not think he could attend,
but did-^oj When this member
reached Camilla, and before (he
mass meeting assembled, he
.vent to the chairman of the
committee and recalled the proxy,
which was in possession of the
chairman. The committeeman
demanded his proxy, stating that
ashe was in town he would con¬
trol his met bership,' and if he
saw fit, do his own voting. The
chairman told the committeeman
that he would return the proxy
‘‘afterawhile” ashe was busy
just- then,
The committeeman then went
to the gentleman whose name
appeared in the proxy and gave
notice that the proxy had been re¬
called, stating that the services
of (lie holder of the proxy would
not be needed. Again, the mem¬
ber of the committee went to
Chairman Bennet and demanded
the proxy. Ho was informed by
the chairman, after the latter had
looked through a batch of pa¬
pers, that the proxy “could not
bo found,” but that it would be
returned at tho dinner hour. The
member of the “committee then
told the chairman that he forbade
(he use of that proxy and left.
After the adjournment of the
mass meeting, and while the ex¬
ecutive committee was trying to
meet to ratify the action of the
said mass meeting, Judge Spence
was cn the street looking for the
member of the committee who
had forbade tho u-se of his proxy.
Not finding the member, who was
at one of (he hotels at dinner,
Judge Spenee returned and sent
after the gentleman in whose
name the proxy had been issued.
The latter is a nephew of Judge
Spence, and had himself gone to
dinner. This recalled proxy was
then presented and voted, for
without it no quorum could be
mustered.
On returning from dinner and
finding that his forbidden proxy
had been used, the committee¬
man was just'y indignant, and
his affidavit can be obtained to
the facts as stated above.
Now, tiie above are the facts
concerning the part Mitchell
county has played in th9 “uomic
opera. Committeeman.
A«i Open Letter.
From the Olutpin, S. O., News: Ear¬
ly in ( lie spring my wife and I wore ta¬
ken with diarrhoea and so severe the
pains that- wo called a physician who
prescribed for us, but his medicines fail¬
ed to give any relief. A friend who had
a bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera
and Diarrliuie Remedy on hand gave
oae-b of us a dose and we at once felt the
effects. 1 procured a bottle and before
using the entire contents wo were en¬
tirely cured. It is a wonderful remedy
mid should be found iu every household.

A Wise Virgin.
The woman reporter was in¬
terviewing Senator Arthur P.
Gorman about suffrage, accord¬
ing to the Troy Times. The
astute politician answered with a
story.” Now, young woman,
what would happen to men if
women went into politics? W hy,
they are keener than we are, even
in their Sunday schools, and we
wouldn’t stand any chance with
them. In one of the few Sunday
school classes I ever addressed I
was nonplussed by a miss of six
sum iners. I w T as telling the girls
the story of the seven wise and
seven foolish virgins, and I ask'
od what we might learn from the
beautiful story, when a little
blossom in blue replied: “That’s
easy enough: learn to keep our
eyes peeled for a bridegroom!”
One of the greatest blessings a modest
man can wish for is a good, reliable set
of bowels. If you are not the happy
possessor of such an outfit you ean great¬
ly improve the efficiency of those you
have by the judicious use of Cham¬
berlain’s Stomach" and Liver Tablets.
They are pleasant to take and agreeable
