What interest have the rank and HE
of Jeffersonians in that hybrid candidate
put out for Congress at Albany oy tw'
conventions? Is it not apparent ina
such action was taken in the interest Q
a few so-called Jeffersonian leaders ana
lot of "lilly whites" such as Brlm-
berry and few others, for their own
personal ends and for their personal
gain? What interest, say we, have these
Jeffersonian voters and these republican
voters in this ofice-seeking and Office
holding crew? We grant that some OF
the delegates to the first convention
were sincere, honest and patriotic, but
can that be. said of "a majority OF the
leaders? sSas StSa4ssS
A few people are hoodwinking some
mighty good people who call themselves
"Jeffersonians,' and a few others
"standing'' for the Republican party are
hoodwinking the great mass of the col
ored people whose interest these self
styled leaders pretend to represent.
Hadn't these Jeffersonians and these
Republicans best vote for Cleveland and
Russell who stand for tariff reform?
STEWART, the Republican Senator
from Nevada, wants free silver and nat
uraily comes over to the Democratic par
ty. He will be endorsed by the Demo-
Gratis and will be reelected to the Senate
on the Democratic platform and will act
with the Democrats: The attention of
the local silver gentlemen who are chas-
ing the Democratic nominees with drawn
knives is called to the action of the big
Drained and earnest William Stewart,
the silver Senator from the silver State
of Nevada.
A MAYOR up in Pennsylvania does not
believe in sending drunken men to Jail.
The other day instead of sending John
Underwood and Louis Gilleman to pris-
on for thirty days on the charge of
drunkenness, he sentenced them to one
hour in church. They were taken to
religious services by two policemen, and
after hearing the sermon they reformed.
To those people vino have an idea that
Weaver may be elected President it
might be we'll enough to say that if ev-
cry elector put out in his favor in the
United States was elected it would not
make him President. There are not
enough electors out. Weaver electors
are out in only few States, and for a
set purpose.
JUDGE BARRETT, the Third party can
didate for the legislature in Pike county,
who said he would't care for the Force
bill or negro domination so long as he
made all the money he wanted, has been
left at home by majority of 1853 agai. st
him. There are lots of decent white
people in old Pike.
OLD Dan Sickles seems to be some
thing of fraud. He has joined the Re-
publican party presumably because
Cleveland vetoed some thieving pension
bills which were favored by the &. A. r
buns. We can lose Danny without be-
ing the least disturbed by the desertion.
BoYCoTTs and prosecutions, commun
ism and social equality, have been
squelched. Sucn principles have no
abiding place in this Southern country.
Born in Russia and nurtured in Kansas,
they will never flourish in Georgia.
THE Democratic cateclysm that has
overwhelmed Georgia calls to mind the
remark of Henry Watterson anent the
great Democratic victory several years
ago. He said it was "from Cape Cod to
Kalamazoo, from Alpha to Omega, from
hell to break fast
EDITOR IRWIN gets up on his hind legs
and howls out: "The times are OmlnOuS.
There will be bloodshed and death I'M
less there is change" Irwin ought to
put his head under the town pump. He
needs cooling off.
THE colored men who worked so earn

remembered for good. What they did
was right in principle and it will prove
