' Editor Times : This seems to be a
father difficult question to settle, if we
may j'> ui the last few issues
of the Dalton Enterprise, where the
heading as above weekly greets its read
ers. Where a man assumes to run for
a responsible office like that oi Senator
Trom this District, it does seem to us
'he ought to be so well known to the
people of whom he asks suffrage as not
to be driven to the necessity of asking
and endeavoring to answer this ques
tion, and having to g\.o a detailed per
sonal history of himself right in the
midst of a canvass. There is no need of
asking continually who Col. x.ain is.—
Born and raised in Cherokee Georgia,
his every interest i i-m fi with the
people among whom he lives, ho is
known by all throughout the Disttie.,
and known too, as a man who has faith
fully discharged every duty to his peo
ple in the publio positions to which he
has been honorably called.
In the Dalton Enterprise first appear
ed an article over the sign-lure of
“Democrat,” who in a tempting to show
who Maj. Wells was, proved himself
either ignorant of facts or guilty ofwilN
ful misrepiesentation, and we as “ Vo*
tors ” unwilling that our fellow -citizens
in the other portions of the District
should be thes imposed upon sent to the
Er.tevp.iae au article in which we en*
deavored to correct the impressions at
tempted to be set afloat, and our arti
cle, like a fire-brand, we see, provokeg
the displeasure of Mr J. G. B. Erwin
of this county, who comes forth this
week in a manner whicu plainly shows
that his stoct of that article “truth
has run too low to accuse us of a lack
of it when he makes it a ''lamentable
fiet that there can be found in Calhoun
a.man capable of penning an article so
devoid of truth as that of Voters.’ ” We
know that article to contain the truth
and facta which Wells himself will not
deny.
Mr. Erwin is glad to ba numbered
among the “immortal eight who sug
gested Maj. wells, because he knew the
voter* of our county chose him to ‘Vo
ters’ chosen champion knowing it.
Would bring to fever heat ail the bad
blood of * Voters’ ’ town or the Calhoun
ring.” Mr. Editor, to what *traight B
m trtt a man bo driven to deal out euoh
slanders as these upon the respectable
people of a quiet and peaceable town, in
what ought to be an honorable politca)
contest? Have the friends of Maj. Wells
no iac.s upon which they can bu'ld up
his c'aims to the Seuato s * p, that they
must so far transce id the limi s of de
cency as to seize falsehood and slander
as their weapons of contest ? While Col.
Fain i# our choice,we do not claim credit
for bringing him out. for we know he
is the most capable man and the choice
ot the voitra of Whi iield and Murray
aa well a* our ova -muoty. If “Voters'
ring,” says Mr Erwin, “c uid have as
they usually have done.gagg-d there tof
Goidon county and nominated his chaui
pion, it would have Leen all light and
nice y lniuey -combed to suithim a least
tf not the people; but when eight res'
pectable citizens happen to n ee* at a
little country store in Fait n*oun\ and
dare write a le.te which is partly the
means ol presenting (wi'hout * \ iter"
endorsement) a man capable, honest an I
upright, as a candidate *o represent the
43d -Senatorial District, it is branded as
a ring and a ho. id thing.” Here is
alander. falsehood and malice, linked to
gether iu a u;a*s. We ask in a 1
candor when the people of Calhoun have j
ever ‘at temp ed to gag the rest of
Goidon county ? or where is the Calhoun
ring: th * chain jin of iu-leho and speaks ,
of? And and and not Mr. Erwin and his
friends propose to g..g not only the peo
ple of Gordo- e*u*.;y. but also of Whit
fi. Id and Murray ecunlios when they at,
tempted aloue to -ay ?ho should ivpre
lent this District? And now, Mr. Ed- I
itor, is slander such as some of Mr I
Wells friends are using to outweigh pa
HietMu, truth and public worth iu the t
selection of our Representatives ? L
the voters of this district answer.
And now, Mr. Edito*\ we as voters
have a right to ask who is this J. G B
Erwin ; he parades the military sc
complisbments of his candidate, where
was he when the poor men of his coun
try left their little alls behind them,
and trusting to Providence for the keep
ing of their families, went forth to dm
thousands of whom now fill patriot
graves on the fields of Virginia and
Tennessee ? Did he show his mar. hood
by joining their ranks ? No, he did not,
but,making a breast work of his nej> es*
lie kept out of the fight, and shared r. t
the privation* of his countrymen. Aod
now let Mr. Erwin assert that these
-tatemecU are “devoid of truth.”
