THE CANVASS.

The public, which have taken the
trouble to read the CHRONICLE, will
Lear witness to the fact that in all
our discussion of the questions which
seemed to divide to Democratic par
~ in the county, that we have never
used any harsh terms or any abusive
cpithets, but have discussed the ques-
lions really at issue, and in the inter
est Of the organization of the Demo
cratic party. We have held the
principles Of the party above any
uul all men, and its organization Is
absolutely essential TO the mainten-
anee Of these principles. Had we
been disposed to indulge in abuse,
ample opportunity has been offered
Tor retaliation. We have stated that
tho Democratic party in convention
assembled, with a full representation
from every district were the true rep
rcscntaIives of the party and ought
O. know what the people wished,

We stated that the Executive Com
nittce had nothing to do with the

refusing to call primary, when the
convention hal virtually refused it.

Hello central. Twenty-efght and
the Dover please. Yes ! Yes that's
what said.
Hello, 2S, who is that ?
All right, say, have Quarles ant
Reynolds Withdrawn?
This is Ike, 60 and tell me.
What, off the track, my God, who
am / to vote for now, what must
do, ! resigned my place on the regu
lar committee for the Craftsmanship
Of the committee, and you ought not
to have taken them off without my
approval. Oh shucks! What is
that? Let me see if / understand
you. You say ] am to tell every
body, that "the Democratic Execu-
tive Committee told Quarles and
Reynolds that if they would get off,
we could have a primary, and that
the matter has been amicably set
tled"' But did the committee agree
to the primary, and say it should be
held?
Did you say no? Well what do
you want me to tell something that
amt true about it for.
Oh, / see, one policy is to make
folks believe we won, yes, yes,
And Quarles and Reynolds are off
then? l was a little afraid we would
overshoot the mark, but we bolted,
didn't we?
All right, will tell everybody.
Yes! / expect you are right about
that twenty-eight, and agree with
you, that we are mighty fortunate to
get back with the party before the
election.
Say, what do you think about
electing the Republicans so as to
defeat Corban and Goodpasture ?
Eth, what's that?
All right, Wen think about that,
somebody might hear us, good bye.
Say, what about hold that primary ?
I'll hold it down here, understand,
yes, yes, all right. Good bye. But,
say, suppose the Executive Commit
tee says we are telling something
that amt true, then what?
Uh hu, yes that's so, we can make
some folks believe it, we can fuss
over it until after the election. Say,
"you did, you did," and then when
the election is over we will say, "if
we had thought they wouldn't have
done it, we would have elected
Quarles and Reynolds"
Say, %, there are but five or six
boilers in this district, how many
have you? My stars, Pm glad you
concocted that yarn. When ever I
want to get out of a snap, I'll remem-
Der this. Good bye.

Wonder Why

This community cannot get up a
rattling nice Democratic flag and pole
at point in the city where visitors
will catch onto it as soon as they get
here?
All the towns of Tennessee show
this amount Of enthusiasm toward
the coming national contest, and
the CHRONICLE wants GAINESVILLE to
keep up with the procession. Let's
"chip in" and get a splendid one.

Young Women of Peru.

The young women of Lima are rs f.
nous for their beauty of form as for their
beauty Of face. They arc always slender,
generally short of stature and rs graceful
as sylphs. Peruvian women never wear
colors in the street, and this custom is
observed by the aristocracy as well as by
the peasantry. The mania is worn by
every woman when she appears on the
street, but in their homes. at the opera
and at afternoon receptions and even
ing balls the ladies adopt Partisan
styles and dress with great deal
of taste. The manta is square in
shape and about two yards in size. It is
folded SO as to be triangular and the CEN
ter of the fold is placed upon the fore
head, where there is usually a bit of lace
that hangs down to the eyes. One end
falls down the front of the dress, whilO
the other is thrown around the shoulders
and fastened at the breast with an orna-
mental pin.
There is romantic story about the
manta that explains why it is always
black. The Inca women wore colors
until their King Atahualpa was killed by
the Spaniards. Then every woman in
the great empire, which stretched from
the Isthmus of Panama to the Straits of
Magellan, abandoned colors and put ON u
black manta, and it has since been worn
as perpetual mourning for the last Of tho
IncaS. William Eleroy Curtis.

Some months ago a negro boy five
yesrs old, was bitten by rattlesnake
near Birmingham, Ala. Recently he
began to show signs ofpeculiar ailments
Every time he gets out in the yard he
lies down with his face on the ground
and erals along, trying to initiate the
motion of snake. When left alone he
will Grail along on the ground until he
finds some place where he can conceal
himself, and there he will remain in
hiding until his parents find him.
When angered the boy does as he for
merly but makes peculiar Missing
nois similar to the hiss OF IL angry sna Ike.
The veins in his neck, face and forehead
swell to enormous dimension mt such
times, his eyes assume greenish hue,
and remaid that color until he RECEIVERS

How easy it is in Russia to get high
officials signature to any sort of dccu-
ment may Ee illustrated by an anecdote
that have every reason to believe is alb
soiutely true. \ ''stola nachalnik," or
head of bureau, in the provincial adj
ministration of Tobolsk, while Boosting
ono day about his power to shape and
direct governmental action, made .
wager with another chinovnik that he
could get the governor of the province
the late governor Lissogorski-to sign q
manuscript copy of the Lords Prayer.
He wrote the prayer out in the form of
al official document on q sheet of stamp
ed paper, numbered it, attached the
proper seal to it, and handed it to tho
governor with pile of other papers
which required signature. He won his
wager. The governor duly signed the
Lords Prayer, and it was probably as
harmless an official document as ever
came out of his office.-George KEENAN,
in The Century.

A change o. tactics Is announced
by the leading Boilers. They had q

grow vehement about and nominate
two candidates against theDemOcratiC
nominees. Appointed out the speak
The people must know how the
Autocrutic Committee had outraged
and usurped their rights. Now the
boiling candle ates are off, none left
to take care of the people. The
leaders of the people have deserted
them right in the eve of battle. The
Autocratic Committee has not
budged one inch. They are still
denying the PEOPLE their "cOnstltu-
ton and inhei ent right"
They still teach the boilers had no
authority to form themselves into
committee, Or anything you may
call them, assume the right to
represent the Democratic party, and
call primary. They still say this
action was, and is, disorganization,
and will not receive from the people
any more favOrs than did the nom
nations made by the same little linn
tied set. The committee still hold
the people have the right to instruct
their Representatives in any way
they adopt. This principle, no one
has ever denied. But the committee
did resist the claims, and does resist
the right OF a few men to assume to
represent that part of the people in
the Democratic party, and order a
primary that people had declined in
the convention to call industrious
circulation by the boiling leaders, for
the committee has concleeded they
had the right to call q primary for
Democrats will not succeed. This
is not true. The Democratic
Committee met on Monday
last and determined to stand
by its action. They knew the con-
vention alone had the right to call a
primary and that the demand for it
was hardly ocrceptible among the
people. Our candidates have not re-
tracted their position and will not.
They still deny the disorganizers
have any aut lority to bind them to
vote the result of their primary. The
candidates recognized he regular or
ganization, not the irregular COM
aosition calico Il committee. To say
the people have the right to instruct
as they please is to affirm right
never question, and deny the charge
made against the Democratic Com.
mittee, that i had refused the peO-
pie right; and is not to recognize
the right Of the self constituted COM
mittee To call Il primary for the Demo-
cratic party. The committee has not
done this in its action, in its address
or in any other way. Organization
is essential to party maintenance and
success. fla ew can stand outside of
party conven ions and methods and
say who shall be done in one
thing and another, organization and
methods are othing. Non-submis-
sion to any ac ion of the organization
is rs much bolt as to nominate cam
didates against the straight ticket.
This is what was done first, and is a
bolt Democrats will rebuke. This
bolt the leaders now say to the peo-
pie the comm ittee conceed a right.

and discover it is made by
