DOWN In GEORGIA.
GORDON NoMINTED FOR
GOVERNOR.
BeeeIylng Eyery vote Du. Two.

Georgia has labored and the result is
Gordon. A more disgusted accoucheul
than Major Bacon, however, has seldom
been seen. Three months ago Bacon
had waik-oyer for the Governorship
but In an evil hour for him jefferson
Davis started out on his celebrated trip.
Gen. Gordan became one of the attach
ments of the party and then began that
famous ride through Georgia which
warmed up the Confed derates with mem
ories Of 1852, and made -Gordon,s arm
the prop,upon which the venerable ex-
Confederate leader leaned. From that
day to this almost every county conyen-
ton has been q Waterloo for Bacon and
a ringing victory for Gordon. The local
politicians were unhpfsc by the sol
diers, who rushed to Gord0n's rescue.
On the eve of the assembly of the con-
vention, Bacon made last appeal to
his followers to crafty him at least by
refusing to make Gordon's nomination
unanimous. He declared that the ring
which worked against him had in its
membership the two United States Sem
rators, vthe Governor. an unscrupulous
press, and the result had been achieved
by corruption.
Judge John T. Clark, as temporary
president, referred TO the TACT that the
convention represented the white peo-
pie.
Judge B. H. Bigham was made perma-
nent chairman.
The delegation from Barlow county
was refused seat because suspected of
independentism, one of the speakers al
+leging that "this was the best time to
rush out independentism." After Bacon
had been nominated in five minutes
speech as the representative of personal
purity, Gen. Gordon's name was put for
ward by several orators who had been
In training for the occasion.
Notwithstanding the appeal of Maj.
Bacon before referred to for his men to
die in the last ditch, they all finally went
over to Gordon, except two, whose voices
of disagreement could be heard occasion
ally above the din.
Gen. Gordon made feeling speech,
after which the convention completed its
work as follows: For secretary of state
N. G. Barnett. For treasurer-R. Har-
ceman. For attorney general Clifford
Anderson. For comptroller, VIM. A.
Wright.
