Political News In the State.
MoRAE, Ga, April 2O-Hon. H G..
Turner addressed the people Of Telfair
county on the political issues here to- day.
The court house was packed, standing room
being at premium. ]. Il. Ryals introduced
Mr.. Turner in his usual happy style. Mr..
Turner arose amidst deafening applause.
He said he was glad to meet the democracy
| of old Telfair face TO face. He said there
was dissension in some localities but be
| hoped there was none here He said he had
come to talk and reason with the people, noe
to misrepresent or mislead them. They we're
| Georgians and democrats, and IL any one
present differed with bis views he invited in
terrup tion. He discussed the fallacies OF
| government ownership of railroads in
earnest aud forcible language. He
next paid his respects to the sub-treasury as
laid down in the Ocals platform. His ar
gument upon the sub-treasury delusion was
| convincing and unAnswerable. Applause
| greeted Mr.. Turner as he uncovered the
delusions Of the sub-treasury scheme. He
said there we're some things that our south
| ern democratio alliancemen injected into
| the Ocala platform which he approved,
namely: Equal justice to all and special
| favors to none; that one industry should

| the railroad and sub-treasury scheme were
western ideas which met with his disap~
prevail
THE TARIFF ISSUE.
He handled the tariff question with gloves
off, and explained it most thoroughly to the
people, denouncing the fraud in bold aud
| eloquent terms. Those who were fortunate
| enough to hear Mr.. Turner's matohless
argument against the tariff system have
better idea of the burdens imposed upon the
| citizens, and certainly must confess thai
| tariff reform should be the battle cry OF she
| democracy. Mr.. Turner concluded his adj
dress with an earnest appeal TO the democ-
| raoy TO stand shoulder to shoulder and give
to the country q democratic administration.
| AS be concluded amid applause the voice OF
| an aged farmer was heard clamoring for
| recognition. When order was restored all
eyes we're directed to Daniel r. McRae, one
| OF Telfair's most prominent alliancemens
| With uplifted hands and heart full to
| overfiowing he announced that he was an
| allanceman because he believed 1t to the
| best interest Of his county, but since hear
ing our distinguished congressman explain
| everything he was as true democrat as
| ever lived and he moved to indorse Hon.
| H. G.. Turner and every word he said. The
| motion came from the bottom Of Mr.. Mc-
| Rae's heart and was carried unanimously
| There waS an old time democratio love
feast Many farmers gathered around Mr..
MoRae and warmly grasped his hand. The
democracy Ia solid here.
