WATSON AT sYLvANIA.
A Crowd of4 300 Turn Out 90 Hear
the Third Party Champion.

Sylvania, Ga. July l3-Hon. Tom
Watson spoke to-day % the largest crowd
ever assembled al one place in Scrivcn
county. At7o'cloc5 this morning 900
people were in town and the crowd was
swelled TO at least 400 at TO O'Clock
when the speaking began The people
were pretty evenly divided on politics
although il was party occasion. There
were nearly as many democrats present as
peoples party folks. Mr.. Watson spoke
exactly two hours and delivered one Of
his characteristic addresses. His immense
audience was in excellent humOr and all
during the morning there was not rip
pie TO mar the evenncss of the crowd.
During the speech there We're no inter
ruptious except occasional de whole
truf' and like expressions from the
cOlOred aggregation present.
Mr. Watson spent last night IN the
lower part Of the county at the residence
of one of his acquaintance of II years
ago when he taught school at Scrlven.
He came to Sylvania this morning and
stopped at the residence Of Judge w. T.
Matthews, whence he was escorted by
the Peoples party executive committee
Observer to a stand erected in the public
square.
GREETED WITH A CHEER.
a IbuSluR tuCGT went up from Ills lDl-
lowers when he walked upon the plat
form. He was introduced by Judge
Matthews. Mr.. Watson said he appre-
ciated the welcome accorded him by the
people of his home of long ago. He
was here to speak of JeffersOnian democ-
racy, not as Wall street teaches it, not as
the old city bosses teach it. but as Jeffcr-
son himself taught il. He said it was
good crowd for a dead party. for people
that had Just come from a political COro-
ner. The Peoples party advocated no
war of the rich against the poor, country
against city, but principles which are as
Just as the God who rules over US
MIR. Watson discussed at great length
the silver question and endcavOred to
show that Senator Sherman was not alone
responsible for the crime ofulS73 but such
democrats as Secretary Bayard as well
The national banks, transportation, the
tariff and an income tax were discussed
on the same line as in his other speeches
He paid special attention to the discussion
of the rights of the negro. He said he was
a white man and proud of his race, but
God forbid that he should ever be
disposed to deny the negro his legal
rights. In conclusion Mr.. Watson said
he had tried to make out case, had sub
mitted his evidence to the audience and
wanted to know if they would give him a
verdict. He asked all resolved to stand
by the third party to hold up their hands.
The hands of about one half the audience
went up, including women and children.
When the speech was concluded, the
crowd assembled around long tables,
where a public dinner was spread.
The day was marked by quietness, not
even quarrel having occurred

Virginia Applicants.

The Virginia contingent ofapplicants
for Office under the present administers
ton is q strong one. Mr. Basil B. Cor
don is now centering his strength on
some of the sccond-class missions. Aus
tria or Italy are said to be his prefer
ences. Gen. Dabney II. Maury, who
represented this government in the
United States of Colombia four years
ago, is willing to take the place again,
and has so said to his friends, who will
do what they can to further his ambi-
ton. Mr.. John L. Hart would like to
live ut Prague, and will accept an ap-
pointmcnt there if he can secure it.
There are at least dozen candidates
for marshal of the eastern and western
districts. Among those in the eastern
district list are James r. Gordon, r. r.
Prentiss, of Suffolk; Col. Starke, of
Norfolk; Meade Haskins, of Rich
mond: F. X. Lassiter, of Petersburg
Catlett Gibson, of Culpeper, and for the
western, eX-Congressman George c. Ca
bell Mr.. Montague, of Danville, Mr.
Byrd, of Winchester; Mr.. Downing, of
Front Royal A. H. Blanchard, of Bris-
tol, and Hampton Hoge. Col. Thomas
Smith, of Warrenton, has come to the
font as candidate for thejudgeship of
the new Court of Appeals.
In the Treasury Department there
were only two applications filed by
Virginians, those of 7. NJ. Wade, of
Lexington, for the sixth authorship,
and l.. w. Reid, of Alexandria, as as
sistant register of the treasury. Mr.
Reid held the position under President
Cleveland before and was succeeded by
Harry Smith, exjournal clerk of the
House.
There are fully twenty-five young
lawyers in the State who would be will
ing to serve in the Department of JUS
tice in some capacity, but who have not
vet made their wishes known to the At
torney-G General.
The impression is growing among
Judge Goodies friends that he will carry
off the solicitor-generalship prize. He
is highly thought of by several of the
cabinet, and it is believed they have
presented to the President the judges
name in strong terms. A cabinet Off
Ger is the authority for the statement
that Judge Goode is by far the strong
est candidate so far in the race.-Baiti-

Agninst n Single Tax.

BALTIMORE, Mar. 15.-The anti
single tax men have won. The Court
of Appeals of Maryland has decided
that tax upon land alone for the sup
port of the government of this State or
any part of it, or the government OF
any county or municipality is not in
accordance with the provisions of our
present constitution and cannot, there
fore, be enforced. This decision grows
out of the single tax system enforced
upon the citizens Of Hyattsville, in
Prince Georges county. The system
has been in operation since July l, 1892.
This decision ends the attempt TO try
the single tax in Maryland.

THE PHILADELPHIA Record says
'With the best disposition in the world
the Cleveland administration can do
nothing to mitigate the iniquity OF the
tariff. 4 democratic Senate is in SEES
sion. it is true; but it has no power to
legislate." All the administration now
lacks in order to mitigate the iniquity
of the tariff" is session of the House,
and that lack can be supplied by q
stroke of the Presidents pen. The
President can convene both branches OF
Congress as easily as he can convene
one: and with a democratic Congress IN
session, and a democratic President to
approve its action, the tariff iniquity
could not only be mitigated, but be
abolished in short order, and the prom
Use upon which the administration was
elected be redeemed, and the eXpecta-
ton and hope of the democratic party

WEDNESDAY EVENING, MAR Is, 1893.

THIS GOVERNMENT has sent q COM
missioner to Hawaii to determine
whether or not the people of that coun-
try want to have it annexed to the
United States. What reason it had to
DO any such thing cannot easily be dis
covered, except the old one that might
makes right. Hawaii an independent
country, and its people have the right
10 conduct their own affairs i'll their
own way, and that, too, without hinder
ance from the United States. But
some disnaturalized Americans, with
the assistance of the American Minister
and American marines, deposed the
legitimate rulers Of the country ana
seized their government, and now,
against the protest of the people of that
country, ask for annexation: and instead
of an immediate recall and punishment
of the Minister, this government
has sent commissioner to see
whether or not the people of Hawaii
want to surrender their native land
and home rule, and be governed by
foreigners. That they do not, is as well
known now as it will be upon the re-
turn of the commissioner. But whether
they do or not, is for them to determine,
and is matter with which the gov
eminent of this country has nothing

SENATOR CocKRILL took the right
ground when, in opposing republican
resolution prescribing the business to
be considered at the present executive
session of the Senate, he said that the
democrats now have majority in that
body and can determine upon the Or
der of its proceedings as they may see
lit. and that, therefore, they should not
bind themselves by the adoption of any
such resolution as that referred to, The
democratic Senators are starting oil
right. They now have control of the
Senate and they are going to exercise
that control according to their own
ideas, and not those of the republicans.
They refused to pass the resolution al
luded to and they have determined to
substitute democrats for the republican
officers of the Senate.

THE PROPOSED railroad strike at
Chicago has been abandoned. The
railroads, in anticipation of it, concen-
trated large force of non-union men,
ready to take the strikers places. The
latter being informed of this, at once
withdrew their demands. They were
wise. Better to have done so without
losing any wages, than after weeks or
months of enforced idleness and short
commons: for strikes have at last es-
tablishcd the Just rule that employers
have the right to conduct their own
business in their own way, and forced
them to make provision for making that
rule effective.
