STAND FOR THE TRUTH.

Let me advise you to wear no ar
NOR for your backs when you have
determined to follow the track Of
truth. Receive upon your breast
plate of righteousness the sword-cuts
of your adversaries their stern metal
shall turn the edge Of your toeman' $
weapon. Let the right be your lord
par amount, and for the rest be free
and your own master still. Follow
truth for her own sake follow her
in evil report; let not many waters
quench your love to her. Bow to
no customs if they be evil, Yield to
no established rules if they involve
a lie. DO not evil though good
should come off it, Consequences 2"
this is the devils argument. Leave
consequences to God, but do right,
If friends fail thee, do the right. BE
genuine, real, sincere, true, upright,
God-ike. The worlds maxim is,
trim your sails and yield to circum
stances, and "turn your coat to suit
any crowd" But if you would do
any good in your generation you
must be made of sterner stuff, and
help make your times rather than be
made by them. You must not yield
to customs, but, like the anvil, EN-
dure all the blows, until the hammers
break themselves When misrepre.
sented use no crooked means to clear
yourself. Clouds do not last long
If in the course of the day you are
tried by the distrust of friends, grid
up your loins, and say in your heart,
was not driven to virtue by the en-
courasement of friends, nor will | be
repealed from it by their coldness.--'
Finally, be just, and fear not; "cor
ruption wins not more than honesty
truth lives and rciguS when falsehood
dies and rols.

MISTAKEN

Col. Christy, the Athens Watch
man, is mistaken about DIR. Felton.s
proposition to submit his claims to
the primary system. DR.. Felton's
proposition, as stated in Marietta
Tuesday, was that eceyy cotcr, re-
gardless of politics or color, Repub,
lican, Negro and Democrat, should at
the October election endorse on their
tickets who they desired should be
their Representative, and he would
abide the decision. AS this would
virtually obliterate all party distinc-
ton and party lines, and allow the
Republicans to say who shall, or who
shall not be the Democratic nomi4
nee, yon can at once see where it
would lead to, as well as see its un-
business aud abSurdity. Confne
the vote to avowed Democrats and
it would be fair, otherwise it is un-
democratic. 1t is the first time we
ever heard such proposition coming
from a professed democrat. Its
very nature should cause the defeat
of DIR. FELTON,. Some of his previous
supporters express adherence at
such political amalgamation, and
others will no doubt abandon him
when they stop and give the prOpo-
sition serious thought.
Let DIR. FELTON, modify his propo-
sition and include none but Demo
Gratis in the primary election as
none but Democrats have the right
to make Democratic nominations
then the proposition will not be q
"dodge," but sincere, fair and
square, and we will support who
ever the democrats may choose
whether it be FELTON, or Dabney.

DIR. FELToNs SPEECH.

After the adjournment of the
county convention last Tuesday,
Rev. w. IL. FELTON, addressed a
large audience at the Court House.
He spoke two hours in reviewing his
candidacy two years ago, rendering
thanks to his supporters, and laud>
ing his record. His speech was full
of self praise and egotism, although
the good book says let others speak
of thee in praise, and not myself. He
declared himself for Tilden and Hen,
bricks, the democratic Presidential
nominees, but failed to. state wheth'
err he was foV Colquftt or not, but he
did not fail to state that he was an
Independent candidate for re election
to Congress. In our opinion he did
not meet with that enthusiasm this
time that he did when Trammell was
his opponent. The applause was
tame and only occasional. His
ablest flights of eloquence were re-
ceived in silence. 1t was only when
he said something funny that the
multitude had their risibles excited
or clapped their hands in approval
DR.. FELTON, has his admirers here
though, who will adhere to him, but
there are many who voted for him
before, who will return to their first
love and vote against him this time.
There were many thousands in this
district who did not vote before who
will this time be induced to come
out and cast their votes for the regu>
lar democratic nominee. Let the
canvass be conducted fairly and
honorably, free from Islander ard
abuse, and we do not fear the result.

THE ART OF GETTING RICH.
Philadelphia Ledger.


Look we'll to your spending. No
matter what comes in, if more goes
out you will be always poor. The
art is not in making money but in
keeping it. Little expenses, like
mice in a barn, when they are many,
make great waste. Hair by hair
heads get bald straw by straw the
thatch goes off the cottage, and drop
by drop the rain comes into the
chamber. 4 barrel IS soon empty If
the tap leaks but a drop minute.-
When you mean to fave begin with
your mouth many thieves pass down
the red lane. The ale jug is great
waste. In all other things keep
within compass. Never stretch your
legs further than your blankets will
reach or you will soon be cold. In
clothes choose suitable and lasting
stuff, and not tawdry fineries To
be warm is the main thing, never
mind the looks. A fool may make
money, but it needs a wise man to
spend it. Remember, II is easier to
build two chimneys than to keep one
going. Ifyou give all to back and
board there is nothing left for the
savings bank. Fare hard and work
hard when you are young, and you
will have a chance TO rest when you
are old.

Equal SHARE.

Col. j. w. Woford, in recent
speech at Cedartown, advocating the
election of TiIden and Hendricks,
said "The people of Georgia pay
annually of taxes to defrsy interest
on the public debt and the other exc
penses 'of the State Government
about 81 100000. OF this amount
the colored people pay $4,000 II.
1t will be remembered in this con
nection there are III ,8I0 white
males in the State over twenty one
years of age, and 6G,5G2 colored
males in the State over twenty -one
years of age. Now, in a State
every department Of which is gov
erned by white Democrats, and
which pays to the public school fund
of the State over 100000 annually,
and in which there are about 40O,-
900 children of school age, both
white and black, 100000 of whom
are black, without reference to the
fact that the total tax paid by all the
colored people in the State is only a
little over $4,000, and the white
people pay over $l,300,0GO the
fund is equally distributed, and each
black child in Georgia gets just as
much benefit from the fund as each
white child in Georgia. Teachers
for the white schools and teachers
for the colorcd schools are examined
by the same commissioner and paid
from the same fund and precisely
the same amounts per scholar"

PAFT's ORDER.

Secretary of War Taft, has just
issued the following instructions,
through Gen. Sherman, to his mar

give the concluding paragraph:

may be his occupation, whether
civilians or not, and including the
military of all denominations, militia
soldiers and marines, all of whom are
alike commanded to obey you. The
fact that they are organized as mill

of the United States, under the i'm
mediate command of their own off

legal character They are strictly

quote above statement of the law
upon this point from an opinion by

Gushing, because it thus appears to

can be no State law or State official
in this country, who has jurisdiction
to oppose you in discharging your
official duties under the laws of the
United States. If such Interference
shall take place, thing not antics
pated, you are to disregard it en-
tirely. The laws of the United
States are supreme, and so conse>
quently is the action of officials OF
the United States in enforcing them.
There is, as virtually you have been
told, no officer of State whom you

which devolves upon an officer
clothed with such powers and res
quired to guard the highest right of

with their powers and rights, and

proper to advise you that in prepsr>
ing this circular | have considered

A DREAM AND WHAT FOLLOWED

Dr.A. NJ. Black man. a well>known
phi ysician of Cresco, Kossnth county,
Iowa, was recently killed by being
thrown from his carriage. a few
nights previous he had a dream, in
which he was called to the neighbor
ing town of Ridg@ay to visit a little
girl On his return he came to a
broad river, which seemed impossible
to cross, and, while he was deyising
means 70 cross, an old friend, long
since head, appeared and assisisted
him in crossing. W hen the Doctor
arose in the morning he related his
dream to his family, aud it appeared
to make deep impression upon him.
Tic at once secured a policy Of life
insurance for $40, 900. He called
his family together, talked over all
his business affairs, and SO arranged
matters that he felt easy as to their
wef1re; and he then express d tic
impression that some sad fatili'y
awaited him. A day or two after,
he was called to Ridgway to visit a
little girl, and. when returning, his
team, which was a splendid one, be
came frightened and ran away.
They ran nearly mile, passing sev
eral teams, which were hurried to the
roadside. 1t is probable tha; the
! Doctor became exhausted in his eff
forts to stop them, and turoed them
mo the brush, whore they went
astride of tree with such force as
to throw the Doctor to the ground.
He was seen to fall by person who
was quickly at his side, when the
Doctor placed his hands on his head,
excIaiming, "Oh, my head !" which
were the last words he spoke. Death
resulted in a few hours from concus
sion of the brain He was a man
highly esteemed for his many virtues
and professional worth

From tie Providence journal.
John H. Docher of Charleston, S.
C, (nulatto), was married in New
port, R. l., Monday evening, to
Jeanette Burbridge (white), daughter
OF one of the business men of that
city. The marriage ceremony was
performed by the pastor of the Union
Congregational (coloredl Church.
As it was generally understood that
the wedding was to take place, a
large and boisterous crowd Of men.
women and children congregated
about the house and made night hid
eous. They threw stones at the
house. broke windows, and used the
most insulting language, the women
being the most demonstrative. The
police were summoned, but to no
purpose. Tar barrels were burned,
and the wedding was delayed in con-
sequence of the mob, The bride had
not lived at home for a long time,
and her father, although opposed to
the wedding, took no measure to pre-
vent the union. The bridegroom is
college graduate and very good
looking.

THIS is fast age. The fact was
exemplihed the other day on an open
car of the Gates avenue line, Brook
Ign. Three young women Of respec-
table appearance took possession OF
one of the rear seats usually reserved
for smokers. When the car started
each drew from her pocket cigar,
obtained a light, and proceeded to
smoke with the utmost equanimlty.
Nothing else about their conduct or
speech was of doubtful or unusual
import. They smoked all the way
to their destination. a distance OF
nearly three miles In general it is
sad sight when an American girl
takes lighted cigar between her
teeth, even if she does not make a
mistake as to which end goes in Bat
in this instance there was no unpleas>
ant results apparent, The smokers
rather seemed to enjoy themselves.
OF course, the other passengers on
the car made invidious remarks, but
probably they were rot believers in
