SAM SMALL.

didate for Senator in this district,
addressed large crowd at the
Court House in this place on last
Tuesday night at u o'clock and has
made another appointment for next
Tuesday afternoon at o'clock. His
speech was a very caustic one
against Hon. Frank Rice Democrat
ic nominee for Senator, claiming
that he was a member OF the M. A.
Bs., secret liquor league of Allan
ia, yet Mr.. Small must know that
Mr.. Rice was nominated by Dem
ocratic primary, in open daylight,
where every democrat went to the
polls and cast his ballot for Senator.
Mr.. Rice secured that nomination
by majority vote, and it was de-
clared to be the fairest and quietest
election ever held in Atlanta. We
know nothing OF Mr.. Rice personal
ly, nor of his past record, and Cobb
county is not responsible for his
nomination. Atlanta has become
responsible as to his being a worthy
man for the place and as the Demo-
cratic nominee he will be elected.
Mr.. Small has no claims upon any
Democrat for his vote. He is run
ming more with view to disorgan-
ize and disintegrate the Democratic
party than he is to benefit it. He
supported Reuben Arnold, indie
pendent, and recently in Atlanta
he declared that che thanked God
he was no longer Democrat. He
has abused the Democratic party
throughout the north and if he is
ashamed to be known and classed as
a Democrat, then the Democrats
should be ashamed to vote for him
to disorganize and rend assunder
the party. Mr.. Small is brilliant
speaker, ana his speech was one of
the most rasping and terrible phil
lipics we ever heard against can
didate, but at the same time prohi-
bition is not an issue in this race,
and it Will be time enough for our
people to rally to fight for it when
it is before them for disposal.
The Importance of party organiza-
ton is as necessary as Church or
ganization, for without organization
in party or church there would be
no party or church, and, therefore,
every man who claims to be a Dem
ocrat must perforce be loyal, or
gained Democrat or he must be an
Independent Democrat. An In
dependent Democrat means that he
has thrown off all party allegiance
and is acting independent of party
methods, and is on his own hook,
independent of the party and not
depending on the party or or
ganized democrats tor support. To
be an organized Church member, a
man cannot be independent of its
discipline, or rules, but must abide
and be in accord Herewith, and
cannot say that he is an Indepen
dent Baptist, an Independent Meth
odist or an Independent Presbyte-
rian, for such things cannot be in
church government, because it
would create trouble and disruption
of the Church. What would be
thought ola soldier who would desert
his army, and go to bushwhacking
and declare that he was an Indepen-
dent soldier? A man is either 10y
al or disloyal, for his party or
against it, and his obedience to its
rules, methods and discipline COM
pletes the organization and makes
him in reality what he processes. .
Stand by your party and vote for
its nominees.

Life of Matthew f. Maury.

To the Editor of the Alexandria Gazette:
Among eminent Virgnians of the last
two generations there is scarcely one whose
merit has been so imperfectly recognized as
that of Matthew F. Maury. On the break
ing out of the war he was at the zsnith of a
fame which had extended to every country
of Europe, and, slender as had been the
comprehension of it by his countrymen,
there is little doubt that but for that great
CONFUSION this entire land would 10 due time
have acknowledged his services to science
and the world as frankly as it now does
those of Morse and Edison. But passion
usurped the place of reason, and the fact
that Maury was Confederate was enough
to prove to most Of the enemies of the
Southern cause that the sovereigus of Eu.

sARD1NEs IN GREAT PLENTY.-som

SARDINEs IN GREAT LENTY-Some
years since there was as great scarcity Of
sardines in France as there was of cray fish,
which, much to the disgust of devoted pa
triots, had to be obtained in Prussia for the
astronomical requirements of the sons and
daughters of night who patronizs nocturnal
restaurants The sardines, it appears had
left the coast Ct Brittany in shoals and had
migrated toward Portugal, the Nantes fish
ermen having had to follow them to Cape
Saint Vincent. This, OF course, gave the
pecheurs great trouble, and caused them to
incur heavy expense IN fitting out larger
boats than those in which they usually piled
their adventurous ling. The government,
however, promised to assis, them, and a
fishery commission was appointed, when
suddenly the Grant sa.lles turned their tails to
Lusitanan cliffs and fteered hack to their old
ground. At the present time sardines are used
for manure at Les Fables d'Olonne and other
places on that part of the coast, and the boatmen
are unable to carry away half the fish that come
into their nets.
