A CARD ON THE COMMISSIONERS
RACE.

MARIETrA. Ga, April 9, 1890-To the
Voters Of Georgia: In the letters that
Judge Henderson has addressed to Colonel
E. T. Nesbitt, he lays great stress on the
president of alliance 20ll, and insinuates
that Colonel N. only joined the alliance to
further his private ends. Colonel Nesbitt,
in response to wishes of alliancemen,
Joined the order and accepted the presi-
dency of lodge 20ll. This he did in Octo-
Der. And we beg further to state that it
was upon our earnest solicitation that he
consented to make the race for commits
sioner of agriculture. The proposition
emenated from us and was a CONF lete
surprise to Colonel Nesbitt We oppose
Judge Henderson for the following reasons:
l. AS farmer he was complete failure.
2. We know of no benefit that has been
derived by any farmer ofour acquaintance
under his administration, and judging the
entire state by our section, we deemed a
change Of men essential.
3. We think eleven years a sufficient
length of time to demonstrate mans ft.
ness for the Office. We ask change not
because we think that too long term for
one man to serve the state but, because we
think that is q sufficient time for the
farmers to pay too dear for the whistle. !"
We support Colonel Nesbitt and recon-
mend him to the state, because he is a sue.

At fourteen years Of age his father died,
leaving debt of $1,000 on his estate.
Within three years the entire amount was

democratic banner to victory, in the days
that tried mems souls" and such is the

DEPEW DISCANTS
ON THE SOUTH, BEFORE THE YALE
I ~ 1aof asiALUMNI. d'

Chauncey M. Depew, who re-
Gently visited the South, talked to
the Yale Alumni, at Delmonico's,
last Friday night, in New York.
He thought the Southern people
we're too sensitive to criticism, he
praises Southern hospitality, etc.
He says. '.'the negro is not badly
treated in the South SO far as his
physical relation to the comm unity
in which he lives is concerned. If
he leaves politics alone he is treated
probably better than he is here, be-
cause he has opportunities in the
South which he has not here" He
saws, zone Of the saddest things that
happened to me are visits of educa.
ted negroes 20 my Office, who come to
me complaining that there is moth.
ing for an educated negro to do in
in New York y He says the South
ern people want the negro to
remain. "He thinks education and
acquisition of property are the two
forces that are working out the So
luton" -
He passes on to speak of the New
South and its exponents; of the
vast development of mineral wealth,
which was building up cities and
bringing prosperity.
''Fow, them he said in closing,
''the net result of this visit to the
South, from hearty observation and
broad generalization, to my mind
is Just thus, that the South is the
bonanza Of the future. We have
developed all the great and sudden
opportunities for wealth or most Of
them in our Northwestern States
and on the Pacific Slope. But here
is a vast country, with, vast for
ests untouched, With enormous
veins Of coal and; iron, which yei
have not known anything beyond
their original conditions, with soil
that, under proper cultivation, for
little capital, can support a tremen-
dous population; with conditions in
the atmosphere for comfortable liv-
ing winter and summer which exist
nowhere else in the country; and
that is to be, the attraction for the
young men who are going out from
the farms to seek other farms, and
in the settlement not by immigra
ton from abroad-for | do not thing
that that will go that way-but by
the internal immigration from our
own country, it is to become in
time, and in our time, as prosperous
as any other section of the country,
and prosperous by purely Ameri-
can development" Loud and pro-
longed cheers.)

HIGHER EDUCATION.
COBB NORMAL SCHOOL TO BE Es-
TABLISHED. 81

Ads Is an lneLlLution mucn neeu-
ed in this section, that is in the
bounds of Cobb Circuit and some
Of the people have begun to see and
to realize their great need Of higher
education, as we'll as common school
education.
We do not need any more schools
in Cobb County such as We have,
but We want less Of them, and we
want schools that are better in
quality and of higher grade, also
purer in morals. We do not want
to educate God out Of the hearts of
thepeople, but welwantlto educate
God into the hearts of the people;
that is we want to teach the people
that there is a God and that he has
laws and his laws must be observed.
How can this be done !? By all
our people uniting in one grand,
common cause for the good of all.
Laying aside all little selfish notions,
and working for the greatest good
to the greatest number.
There is a move on foot to build a
church school at the Marietta Camp
Ground or at Antioch. Nothing
could be done that would tell more
or so much even for every. interest
OF the community as to build this
school. 1t would be an honor to
Cobb county as well as to the State
at large; would attract population
and be great factor in toning and
developing the minds OF the young,
socially, mentally J, and religiously.o
We hail with pleasure this start
on a new line; and hope it will be
pressed TO- q glorious contamination.
Why mott 1t will assuredly, if it
gets the help it needs and deserves.
True genuine christian work is best
done il done. where most needed- to
be done. This good and great work
Of christian education somnch need
ed in all this region, ought to be
done, it can be done; and we, put
into this great interest ouf hearts
and conscience it will be done. 81
We are impressed with the
thought, and the more thought We
give the question the stronger the
conviction-that a wise outlay Of
men and money in this field, white
unto harvest, will come back to us
in blessings manifold and immediate.
1t is significant and points almost
with certainty to large and gracious
results. If we move wisely and
promptly a high school in this Sec
ton will be built.
A beginning has been made, let
US push it heartily, persistent|y to
the outcome of all there is in it. If
we hold back and do nothing we
may slip an opportunity that may
not come again tor years.

B. a. Enloe, better known as
@Gus," the brainy and brilliant
Congressman from the Jackson
district, is m the city to-day en-
route home from Washington. He
has a walk-oyer for denomination
equivalent to it for reelection.
Mr. Enloe has rapidly forged to
the front in Congress, and has
borne himself SO gallantIy on many
a field Chat he has won a national
reputation.
A Herald representative had an
interesting conversation with him
concerning political affairs. Said
he. Tam confdenttha the Dem
ocrats will control the next House,
and very many of the best posted
Republican politicians at Wash
ington are of the same opinion.
The only menace to that happy
achievement lies in the fact thatthe
Republican Congressional Execu-
tive Committee has at it's disposal
a colossal fund to be expended in
the campaign for bribery and cor
ruption under the direction Of
Clarkson, who has been First AS
sistance Postmaster General. This
doodle was forced by the Repub-
lican managers from the protected
industries Of the country while the
tariff bill was pending It was
worked this way. All of these
classes of manufacturers had their

They would be asked what would
be their profit from the passage of

The agent would name an estimat-
ed figure and this would be report
ed to Clarkson. He would then
assess an industry a proportion
Of its profits, and this they had to
pay before the bill was passed, the
clear understanding being that the
Republicans were to spend the
money to,retain power in Congress
and SO prevent interference with
the tariff. Clarkson- has in this
way secured an enormous campaign
fund; but, Notwithstanding, De-.
mocracy will be triumphant"
"How about the Speakership?"
