Gen. John B. Gordon.
In another column will be found
the manly and patriotic letter of Gen.
John B. Gordon, announcing .bis in
tention logo lie fore the Slute Demo
cratic Convention as a candidate tor
Governor. His letter, as every thing
else be says or writes, h«s the ring
of pure gold. We hoist his name to
the t”p of our masthead, ns our
choice for governor, un i hope he
wilt carry the State by a larger ma
jority than ever Senator Colquitt
did. We say three cheers and a
tiger for the face soldier who
has always, in field and forum, so
nobly represented Georgia.
OoL W. Y. Atkinson,
Os N»*wnar, is most favorably
and flatteringly spoken of for one of
the two legislators from Coweta
county.
We have known Col. Atkinson
from his ear'y youth, we having
gone to school together when we
were children, and we unhesitatingly
say that Coweta has no man in her
borders, who would do more credit
to himself or to his county, or to »h«
State, than would he. Upright, in
telligent, a first-class lawyer, a high
toned gentleman, he is the embody.
m<*nt of all that got s to make a use
ful and conscientious legislator. We
bed noeaeion a short time since, to
eay thkt < oweta, the county of our
nativity, would always do what was
right, and what was best for her own
interests, We now repeat the asser
tion, and arid that they will show it
by sending Col. W. Y. Atkinsoa to
the legislature.
GORDON TO THE PEOPLE.
Ho Announces Himself For The
Governorship.
General John B, Gordon makes the following
announcement to the people of Georgia.
AT Hom*, DeKalb County, M«y 8, 5886.
To the People of Georgia: Alter much reflec
tion I have decided to lieoome a candidate for
nomination by the democratic party of Georgia
tor the uffloe of Igovernor. This decision has
not been reached without sober thought and
fnll ouneideration. For many months pas* per
sonal and political friends have urged me to be
come a oandloatc. From every section ot the
Hate, and from all class?* and former divisions
la the party, these requests have come. I have
hesitated arid waited, because I desired to know
whether the wish was general with the people.
Os this 1 cannot longer entertain a doubt. The
evidence which have reached me (particularly
in tho last few weeks) of the devise of the peo
ple, h.> ve profoundly stirred my heart and satis
fied me us my duty. Front distant portions of
the Mhrte and from my Immediate neighbors
( some of whom have known me tn mot intimate
NvmeiatioM from my boyhood up) there solicita
tion* have come. This movement by the people
so far as lam able to Judge, is alwolutely sp«n
taneone. 1 have not written one letter upon
the subject, except in answer to . those which
have reached me; ami 1 have solicited the aid ,
of no man nor conversed with any who have not
Introduoed the subject.
New a candidate. I trust that none of;
my fellow cittens of Georgia will misunder- I
stand me. From the ungenerous, unwarranted
and utterly uutrutht ul criUclsms which have
heretofuiw been Indulged In by certain parties
in reference tn myself, I seek uo vindication at
the hands at the people.
If the life that I have led for mor* than half a '
century, before this people among whom I was
Ikwm and reared, is not a sufficient answer to my
enemies, who are enemies without cause or ex
cuse, no reply from me would satisfy them. If,
at any time of my life, if iu private or public
ateuosu In peace or in war, I have ever deserved
the confidenee and sstcem ot this people, I de
awrw the same now as surely and as completely.
I wish, however, to make known tn this public i
msm-.er, that I shall visit and speak to ns many |
euonuns as pondhle, and am ready on all ooca- !
-ions to confront these enemies before the peo-
P>.
Should the people prefer either of the other
able and honorable gentlemen who are candi
d-»t-« Kir the <»«see. I shall support their choice
roost ofeeertftl ly. If, however, the people sbou Id
h*MT me a* their choice. I shall endeavor to
ewrw tbeto wtih an eye aingie to the best inter
eat* of
J B .Gummax.
LET BEASON ANSWER.
W e have placed at the mast-head of
the Star, the name of W. T. Roberts
as our choice for Representative in
the n/oxt General Assembly. We do
so after making a calm and impartial
mental canvass of the claims and
qualifications of every other candi
date whose name has been announced
or mentioned.
It is universally conceded by eve
rybody, that Col. Roberts is a young
man of ability and integrity. V\ e
say, and without fear of successful
contradiction, that his character for
honesty and uprightness of purpose,
is unimpeachable. The people of
the county during the past five years
have had the opportunity to see and
know him, and no charge of any dis
honorable action has ever been laid
at his door. It was here among us
that the first years of his young man
hood were spent, in trying to solve
the perplexing problem which is the
lot of every young man who is poor
and without friends of influence to
solve, the problem of existence. Dur
ing this period, he has shown himself
to be upright, temperate and conser
vative, and has made for himself a
name among his fellow-citizens that
is without spot or blemish. In the
very prime of young manhood, with
a mind highly trained and cultivated,
and a kind, genial disposition that
makes friends wherever he goes, he
is a splendid specimen of Georgia’s
young, active and progressive sons.
He is a lawyer and a good one, and
’ we know that no reasonable man
will urge this as a reason for refusing
to support him, as we are satisfied
that his attainments in this direction
will not render him less capable to
represent the interests intrusted to
him. Os the truth of this assertion
we have no doubt.
To be brief, we believe Col. Rob
erts to be better fitted to fill the
office he asks for than the other gen
tlemen whose names are mentioned,
and equally as honest and industri
ous.
We mean no disparagement of the
other gentlemen when we any this.
Mr. Watson is a man who is respect
ed* and no doubt admired by many.
That he is appreciated is evidenced
by the fact, that in the last ten or
twelve years he has, in business, ac
cumulated what in these localities is
considered a handsome amount of
property. IFe respect and admire
him, but, at the some time, do not
think he is the num for the place.
W bile he is a man of good business
qualifications and has succeeded well
thus far in life, financially, it seems
to us that a calm, unbiased compari
son of the two, by any sober-minded
man, must result in an indorsement
of Col. Roberts.
we have the kindest of feeling for
Mr. Watson, and would not detract,
if we could, an iota from his merits,
but at the same time, we cannot but
feel, that at this time, when public
matters of the highest concern to our
people, will be agitated and acted
upon in the next session of the Leg
islature, we should send the ablest
men we have in the country, to see
that our interests are fostered and
protected.
IFe not only know Col. Roberts
has the ability to do this, so far as
our county is concerned, but that be
will actually do it, which is far better.
If it was a mere question of honor-1
Ing one of these two gentlemen, and ■
saying whom we prefer to cast the
yeaor nay vote for Douglas county,
we would W indifferent, but the at
mosphere of the Capitol will be full
of important problems for the next
General Assembly to solve, and the
’ man who believes, as every one ought
to believe in political matters, in plac
mg the interest of the country in the
! hands best qualified to manage them
I for the people, will have but one
question to ascertain—who is best
| qualified to represent us at this time ?
i If every voter in the county will put
this question to himself, and let rea
son answer, we have no doubt of an
overwhelming endorsement of the
position taken by the Star in this
important question.

PLEADS GUILTY.
Some time ago the Douglasville Star charged
that the “professional politician” of Meriweth
er were opposing the rotation plan in salt ettng
a state senator and endeavoring to deprive
Douglas or her just dues. We responded that
though the rotation plan had been abolished by
the senatorial convention and never re-adopted
yet we thought in right and that Douglas was
entitled to select a senator this year. Strange
ly enough the Star declined to copy what we
said about rotation and rights of Douglas. In
connection-with the charges of “professional
politicians” we said.
“Speaking of “professionals,“ the best illus
iustration of this specimen of the GENNS HO
MO we have ever known was given by a dele
gate to the senatorial convention held in New
nan in 1882. This delegate was credited to
Douglas and with a number of proxies obtain
ed by some means controled the county. So
strictly “professional” was he, that it is said
that a pair of shoes, a caHco dress or two, a
package of sugar and coffee with sundry drinks,
caused him to put his vote where it would do
the most good."
This little scrap of history seems to have
touched the Star on a sore place. The editor
admitting that Douglas furnished the most un
adulterated specimen of a crack “professional
polltieion" ever known, presents the following
udicrous and flimsy defense. Though the Star
feared to publish our article, we give his plea
of guilty and justification in full. Here it is-
“It will be remembered, that in the Newnan
convention of 1882,Meriwether county was Jen
titled to the Senator from the 36th District, and
that the Chief Engineer of the esteemed Vindi
cator was a most prominent aspirant for the po
sition. This being true, the aforesaid Chief
Engineer very probably has good grounds to
know wherof he speaks.
If our surmise is correct as to who the “dele
gate from Douglas” was, we have this littleflea
to put into the ear of the esteemed Vindicator.
The aforesaid “Delegate from Douglas" was a
recent importation into Douglas county, hehav.
ing come here from Meriwether county, only a
few months before the convention of 1882.
Meriwether being then entitled to the .-enator,
and the “delegate who was accredited to Doug
las," being just from that county, and presuma
bly well acquainted with the "professional poli
ticians" of that county, and being a compara
tive stranger here, it was an easy matter for
him to get the proxies of other delegates who
did not attend the convention. The said “dele
gate," according to our best recollection, cast
several votes for the aforesaid Chief Engineer,
and because Martin was a better wire puller
than the said Chief Engineer, and finally got
the "delegate who was accredited to Douglas"
to vote for him, and thereby secure the nomina
tion, we don‘ t think the Vindicator should feel
so badly. You enjoyed it awhile, anyhow, when
you was filling the "delegate" with tanglefoot
bug juice. We may be wrong In our surmise as
to who was the "delegate” alluded to, but the
one we have in mind was the first to reach New
nan from this county, and when the others ar
rived there he was found with the aforesaid
Chief Engineer and his friends, and was glori
ously drunk. Verily Meriwether can furnish
-professionals" if lie is a genuine specimen?,
1. Guilty, thrice guilty, says the Star “but our
man was imported from Meriwether." What
do you import such jh ople into your county forY
Instead of bringing them Into Douglas you had
better keep them out. We export such fel
lows, you IHPOIIT them. Such a defense is In
keeping with the conduct of Yorn professional
delegate,
2. You say "he came here only a few months
before delegates were selected?* If he had not
been in the county long enough t<> lw tt vo
ter why make a delegate of him.’ t- that the
kind of men Douglas usually semi < to hi <trict
and state conventions? You'' uu.-t
rat nor hard pressed to send up suci» u p> *»
3. Yon say, b ing a <:onrp:v. r <v•» sts inger
here, it was an easy matter tor him to get prox
ies?* Well, my friend, down tide w;iy. we don*t
allow “comparative strangers" to act tie proxies.
When a resident of "only a few months" and a
"comparative stranger" ia selected as a dele
gate, does it not strike you that "something Is
rotten" in Douglas as well as Denmark?
4. The delegate aforesaid may have cast one
or even “several votes" for the “Chief Engin
eer of the VixtHCATOit" for aught we know, but
he had no promise of dresses or fillings “of tan
gle foot bug jutoe,. or to Induce him to do so.
If we ever fel£ badly about the matter, aS bad
feellinga are removed by the revelations of the
“wire pullers" was engineered the so called vic
tory. Though we acknowledge the right of
Dbuglas to select a senator thia time, we trust
she will not send her old imported delegate a
gatn nor present as a fit and suitable candidate
for senator any of the crew who aided in his im
portation or selection. Can the Star endorse
thia desire?
5. You close by saying: "Meriwether can fur
nish professionals." Yes. my dear brother.
Meriwether, may now and then, produce anch a
creature, but you seem to import them a* soon
as they grow up and press them into services
l»efore fully acclimated. They leave v« fur their
safety, why do you import them?
6. While confessing to importin’? and using
an acknowld;ed professional politician who
had not even received naturalization papers,
you appear charmingly unconscious of any
wrong doing. In such eases is it folly to be .
wise?
7. Pray excuse us from the charge of getting
your inan gloriously drunk. From the report
of those who rumor says did secure a bill of sale
to his vote and proxies, we would sooner at
tempt to fill a snake hole with water than to ex
pect to stagger your late imported professional
with :«11 the mixtures that ever issued from all
the stills in the 36th senatorial district. He
conld drink a whole convention drunk and then
walk off with the jugs. We never indulge in
such "wire pulling- as hobnobbing with a pro
fessional or trying to moke him
Meriwether Vindicator. j
Ist- We do not plead guilty at ;
all, save in tbh: The peop e of
Dougins allowed one “profensifintd
politician” of Meriwether, lo ixport
another into ti«o county, with the
avowed purpose of reiutn'ng to
Newnan as a delegate to the conven
tion, to help nouiinstethe exporter.
And hy “professional wirepulling”
the exported secure I the proxies
for his boss, by so'iciting them under
the plea that “be new the Candida es.”
By some hokus-pokus, his vole was
changed, and consequently, a speech
spoiled. Douvlas was truly unfor
tunate in this case of “imporiarion,’
but to largely it ore than oflsett it,
she has “impnrteu" from Meriwether I
about twenty of the Ijest uen in the ;
state, (one of whom is ©nr sheriff,'
than whom bo better man Eves) and
your eaeportation is the only “profes
sional in the county.
Sad. Ha bad been here long
! enough to vote. The exporter
I knew too well what was necessary to
j overlook that point. Aa to why be
j was selected,—well, we were not let
i into the secrets of the “professionals,”
! ani cam’t say,-—but we can guess,
j Can’t you ?
j 3d. The only thing in
i Douglas,” was the “wire-pulling” of
the “professionals” to get the “dele
gate appointed and then to get the
proxies’ for delegates who could not
go to the convention. The people of
Douglas have always been honest
and straight-forward in their deal
inge—political and otherwise,—and
not being familiar with the “ways
that are dark, and tricks that are
vain” of the “professionals” were
sadly tasen in, once,—.but they will
not be any more. Selah.
4tb. We are too nice to call names,
but onr information is, that the con
tract that was made at the exporta
tion, was not completed until certain
votes were east in the convention,
and that the “delegate” did not get
“promises,” but bona file rtioes, cal
ico dresses, sugar, coffee, money and
drunk, to p y for his service.. We
dont know, and don’t say who gave,
or paid them to him, but the cost is
said to have been a great deal more
than several years subscription to a
country weekly would amount to.
We are ul»d vou have gotten over
your bal f« lings, sour stomach,
spoiled and most devout-
ly join you in your laudable wis .
And more, we will do all we can to
accomplish that end, and keep out
aiders, abetters, importers and ex
porleis of such ilk.
sth. Perhaps i;. is within the scope
ot the Vindicator's knowledge, un
der what»iicuniHtar.ces the importa
tion, or, as you term to prefer, the
exp station, was made, and after
casting yotes so rs to spoil a really
magnificent speech, it is no doubt
true, that “be left for his safety.” It
would doubtless have been danger
ous for him to have gone back to
Meriwether, and we are told he never
has been back, even in a visit,
7th. “Sc»t.” “Cbestne'.”
Listen at the old Veteran I
W»* were speaking the other day
to a Confed* rate Veteran who has a
wry emphatic way of exoresring
himself, as well u** a number of scars
scattered over bis anatomy, w‘ ich
were rec< ived during the war, and of
nei'her of which he seems to be
ashamed, when the subject of Gener
al Gordon's candidacy was mention
ed. We asked him what he thought
of it, and he replied :
“Do you remember the fearful cy
clone that passed over Leeds, Ala.,
two years ago ? Well, sir, that cy
clone was baby’s play to the popular
wave of sentiment that will permeate
every nook and corner of Georgia
for the galiant Gordon.”
“Do you know,” he continued
“thatev ry soldier now living in
Georgia who was in the Virginia
army, and nine tenths of those who
were in the other armies of the Con
federacy, love Gordon almost aa they
did Lee or J ckson? Well they do, *
and they have had the good sense to
teach it to tbdr children.”
“But,” we suggested, “you know
there is no man free from enemies,
political or otherwise, and don’t you
think they wi 1 injure Gordon by
charging through the press that be
sold out his B“st in the senate ?”
,‘See here, Peavy” be flared out,
“I have seen tha’ infamous ya r n in a
few fou’lh-rate papers, that were ed
ited by hairbraioed loots, and you
just do this 'or a man who loves
John B. Gordon. You just say in
the outset, that, that yarn is a stinkin
lie. There is not a man in Geoigia,
wno was with Gordon in Virginia,
unless be is aderned sneak and cow
ard, but that knows ats a a d—.d lie.
Why sir, if he should do such a
thing, hia wife, (who, by the way, is
one of the be«t women God ever
made, and the only one I ever saw
face yankee bullets) would quit biro,
and teach her children to look on
him as a traitor to bis state. No,sir,
you just say it’s a * lie, to start
with, and every old soldier in the
state will back you.”
*‘What about Mrs. Gordcw facing
yank<*e bullets ?”
“Why this. At the battle of I
Winch*ster. Va., in 1K64, we god
badiy whipped, for the first time I
during the war. Our army wais
demoralized, and every man was
locking out for number ore. The
officers tried to rally the mei», but
as toon as ft few of them would get
together, the bullets would begin
to fly so thick and fast from the
yankee guns, that it eeenM(l a gen
oral stampede was inevitable. Just
at this juncture, Mrs* Gordon, rid
ing a beautiful, spirited pony, with
General Gordon’s headquarter flag
in her hands, rode in among the
flying bullets and re! resting soldiers,
and at the top of her voice called
out: 4 Here’s your General Gor
don’s flag, men; rally to it! Well,
sir, in lees than ten minutes, she
rallied more men than every officer
intheaimy could have done in ten
hours. Do you think the husband
of such a woman could sell out,
even if he wanted to ? No, God
bless her, its a lie.”

SALT SPRING SHOTS.
May, sth.
The liotel at this place will soon be completed
and ready for summer boarders, and then with
the convenience of a railroad to the springs, no
better, healthier or prettier place need be de
sired for a summer rest.
I Mr. I. M.&M. B. AVatson, of Douglasville,
! paid a flying visit to Salt Springs Sunday even
ing.
Dr. C. C. Garrett stands a foot higher in his
shoes as he smilingly says there is a “wee bit”
of a girl stopping at his house.
Douglas county was well represented in At
lanta Saturday. Every body seemed to be en
thused, as well they should be, to witness such
honor done the memory of Georgia’s greatest
Statesman.
We extend a hearty welcome to the Douglas
ville schools that will picnic at this place next
Saturday, and hope the day will pass pleasantly
to all. These school picnics are a good thing and
should be encouraged. When memory goes
back to my old school days, I date our anual
May picnics as among the brightest days of my
life. We should scatter the roses ilong the
pathway of the young, keeping the thorns out
of sight as long as possible, for they will cer
tainly find them by and by.
We think that Salt Springs will give a rous -
ing majority for J. P. Watson for the Legislat
ure.

Mr. Editor.—Your correspondent feels more
than an ordinary interest in the Star, and
would be pleased to seea wider circulation here.
I think an impartial reader will give it equal
rank with any paper of our country.
Well the picnic is over and is now numbered
with the i Hings of the past, and from what I
saw, I think the young people enjoyed itfinelly.
There was one who I am satisfied enjoyed it. for
I heard him ask hi* girl to go with him after
some water, when she replied: “There is water
Ln the bucket.'’
The farmers are all plowing their corn and
making ready for the cotton which will be up by
and by.
The church and Sunday school at this place
will be compelled to build a larger house for the
accommodation of the people who attend Sun
day school, a’nd I Nope when our subscriptioS
man comes to Douglasville that you will all
lend a helping hand, candidates and all.
Mr. W. F. Wright, of Morristown, visited ns
last Sunday. Come often old fellow, no man's
visit would be more highly appreciated.
Miss Mollie Yancey, from near Campbelton, is
visiting her brother near this place.
Mr. Editor we don't want any stock law down
here at present, we don,t know what we may
need after awhile, but from the looks of the
woods and timlter I think we can make out sev
eral years yet without it.

Card from Col. W. A. James.
To the people of Douglas County.
After a careful consideration of the matter, I
have decided not to become a candidate for
Representative of this county in the next Gen
eral Assembly.
I have been strongly solicited by friends from
all parts of the county, to enter the field, I have
had many assurances, also, that my candidacy
would meet with the hearty cooperation of ma
ny of the citizens of the county. But think that
one of a family is enough at the same time. It
would give me great pleasure to serve my peo-I
pie in the legislrture, but under the circum- I
stances think it best not to run. In this connec
tion, I return my sincere thanks to my f riends
who have kindly mentioned my name in this
connection, and others who have given me their
encouragement and support. With my best
wishes for each of the candidates who are in
the race, as well for the happiness and prosperi
ty of the citizens of the whole county, I sub
scribe myself very truly.
