reach such investments is by tax on the
general income of the holders of such Sc
curities. That is the fairest way to levy
a tax-so adjust it as that men pay. in
proportion to their ability AS it is now the
richest man in the country may pay the
smallest proportion of taxes to his wealth,
yet when trouble comes it takes more men
and money to protect his interests than those
of thousand other men who pay hun
dred times more taxes. While the trich are
entitled to be thus protected, they ougnt
also to pay II just proportion of the cost
of government and protection. Yes, sir. we
should have this form of taxation, by all
MEANS"
Judge Fort said, in conclusion, Il believe
if the democratic party keeps IT'S pledges
as l think it will do. and gives the country
the relief it promises. the third party will
20 out of business. I find that to be the
disposition of the populists in our section
of the state But if the democratic party
fails to redeem those promises, ! think the
third party will surely give us much trouble
in the future"

FORT ON THE FUTURE
POLICY OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
IN LEGISLATION.
Tariff Reform of Solid Substance Demand.
ed by the People with Increased Currency,
State Banks and All Income Tax.

In the thriving and beautiful little south
Georgia metropolis with the original and
patriotic name, Americas, lives one of the
most cultured, conservative and successful
of the young leaders Of Georgia affairs
Hon. Allen Fort.
In an old-fashioned, one-story frame resi-
dence, the famous old Reese homestead,
with its ample grounds and refined sugges-
tons of comfort and contentment, he en-
joys work or leisure as he will, in the fond
companionship of his most interesting
family. The house stands on Lee street.
about four blocks away from the courthouse,
and is in easy reach of the hustle of the
town, or accessible from all points to the
social world of the little city and of which
Judge Fort and his charming wife are con-
spicuous members. Any event of his public
career that would remove them from the
daily life of Americas would be taken there
as Il personal grievance and public depriya-
ton.
His Upward Career.
When Allen Fort graduated from the Uni
versity he had no purpose to become a
lawyer, but had a desire to perfect him,

In 1868, however, by the hnancial mis-
fortunes of his father, Allen Fort was
thrown upon the need for immediate activi-
ty and determined to speedily acquire a
knowledge of law and enter upon its active
practice He studied under the direction of
Hon. Willis A. Hawkins i'll Americas, and
was admitted to the bar by Judge David
A. Vason, of honorable memory. He at
once entered upoN q profitable practice, and
from then until now all his labors as a law

Through with Their Labors.

Richmond, Va. April 13.-(Specal.) His
excellency, Philip Watkins Mckinney,
sounded the keynote to which the conven-
ton Of southern governors turned its ac-
ton when, in welcoming the chief execu-
tives of the other southern states to Nir-
ginias capital yesterday, he expressed the
hone that the body would be u working
rather than laxative
The convention which, after holding
three sessions of some two hours each,
concluded its labOrs late this afternoon
and adjourned sine die, was indeed IA work
ing body and it was distinctiyely free from
speech making.
Indeed, signal and unique feature of
the gathering was that besides the adj
dress of welcome and response yesterday
not a single speech of five minutes length
was made, but great deal was done and
the effects of the measures taken today
will be seen in years to come in the further
development of the great resources of the
fair and sunny southland.
The work. though, was done mainly by
the committee on plans and resolutions,
to which all papers introduced were re-
ferred without debate. This committee
worked very laboriously; and after pretty
well agreeing upon the general provisions
of what should be done, delegated a sub
committee with Governor Stone, of Mis-
souri,, as chairman to prepare an address
to the public, which was subsequently
adopted by both the general committee and
the full body. This address set forth the
resources. climate and other advantages
of the south and invites immigration and
the investment of capital for which it is
asserted that there are most desirable
fields.
Two other very important resolutions
adopted We're by Governor Carr, of North
Carolina, recommending that the COVER
norS of the several states appoint persons
to investigate the several subjects of di-
rect trade and manufacture. and another
by Governor Fishback providing that each
governor have prepared a paper on his
state, not to exceed 5000 words setting
torth the social, religious and educational
condition, etc, of the states.
A thoroughly conservative sentiment pre-
vailed in the convention and there was
pronounced opposition to any action with
this ground that objection was made to
the letter proposed by Governor Fishback
and intended to be sent to President Cleye-
land asking that conslllates be appointed
who will fairly represent the south abroad.
which, it was declared. was not being done
under republican administrations. The let
ter was, therefore, withdrawn from the
committee.
Mr.. Waddell, of Georgia. made a motion
that when the convention adjourned il do
so to meet in Atlanta GA. at Il fixed time.
but this was ruled out by the presiding
officer, who said that the subject of max
ton and holding another meeting next year
had been discussed in the committee and
voted down.
