The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1892-09-21
BANKRUPT Regulations.

that THE News has not been telling the
truth in its reports of the recent politi-
cal meetings.
THE NEWS is partisan, of conrse. Its
editor is partisan, too, but never when
he can help it, THE News only tries to
be impartial 1t does not claim that 1T
succeeds.
Ordinarily, when we write thing is
true we mean that it is really true. We
understand, of course, that it is now De-
ing frequently said among certain ele-
lement that such and such is one of THE
NEWS lies.
Men with the best possible reputa-
TONS with characters for a whole life
time above reproach, are designated as
common liars. The campaign for the
past year or two has swept from good
men regulations which they have been
years and years in building up. gen
tleman whose life has been beyond sus-
picion wakes up some morning to find
his reputation for truth and decency
gone, and in it's place wild and mad men
have manufactured special character
for him.
THE NEWS is not so good as to escape
its share of the niagara of abuse which
is sweeping the country, or so bad as to
deserve it. We may not be impartial,
but VIC sc en- no premeditated excursion
of lying, and those readers who have fol.
lowed us for years ought not now, be-
cause of party feeling, suffer themselves
to be led off in to such belief. They, at
least, should know us better.
Ordinarily, THE News has very de-
cent reputation as newspaper, but now,
alas, with some it is getting to be the
commonest of political prostitutes and a
wholesale liar.
In some future day perhaps, God
knows how long first, men and papers
will be judged by what they are, and
not by what the infamed senses of an
angry people unjustly make them.
When most sovereign reason, now
''like sweet bells jingled out of tune and
harsh," shall resume :her sway honest
men may get justice and struggling
newspapers, trying to be right, will be
heard.
Until then we expect our news col
umns to be discredited.
The records show that General J. B.
Weaver said of Confederates:
81 don't give rebels in the South vouch-
ers. | would rather furnish rope to hang
every damn one of Them"
And this man ohe Peoples party
would elect president. 1t is surprising
that any Southerner would think of vot-
ing for him. He is now in Georgia, and
Georgians should treat him with
the contempt he deserves.
AN esteemed contemporary calls at
tention to the fact that of the eighteen
States carried by Cleveland in 1888 not
one has since been carried by the Repub-
licans. OF the twenty States giving
their electoral vote TO Harrison eleven
have in the meantime gone Democratic.
Is not this the verdict on McKinley's
bill?
IT is said that the independent vote of
Indiana that supported and carried the
State for Harrison in 1888 will give
Cleveland such support in the coming
election as to insure the electoral vote
for the Democratic party.
JOHN SIBLEY, of Cobb county, the
young man of lusty lungs who has been
begging for the Third party nomination
for Congress in the Seventh, has got
what he wanted. The Democrats will
do the rest.
Mr.. TUMEIN, the Third party legisla-
tive candidate down in Clay has quit
the race because he is not eligible. An
other nomination will be made. id.
Rambo is the Democratic nominee.
FIsHBAcK, in Arkansas, only got
about 50, 600 over the combined majority
votes of the Peoples party and Repub-
licans. The Peoples party had only
enough "people'in it to win Que county.
