TURNER ENDORSED.
The Eighth Senatorial District In
dorses Him Strongly.


dorses Him Strongly.
Townsville, Ca, Aug 3O.-Resolutions
iudorsing Representative Turner for
senator were unanimously adopted at the
senatorial convention for the Eighth dis
trict, held in cambridge yesterday.
we. the re representatives Of the democratic
party OF the Eighth senatorial district, be-
leving II TO be our right and privilege to eX-
press the choice of the democracy of this
district for United States senator, hereby
declare that IN the candidacy OF Hon. Henry
@. Turner for that h ugh ONCE, South Georgia
presents man whose record Tor me past
fourteen years in congress shows him to be
a statesman of eminent ability. and a party
leader in every way worthy OF the confidence
OF the people. His record also demonstrates
that he Is thoroughly in accord with the
principles OF his party on all great questions
that have come before that body.
We point with especial pride to his atti-
tude as party leader in the campaigns Of
1890 and l,9- in this and the Eleventh con
gressional districts, when the Democratic
party was in imminent danger OF being over
whelmed with Ocalaism and so many of our
leaders in other portions Of the state, in their
thirst for political promotion, went astray
after false political gods and gave
their Endorsement to the particular
legislation" devised by the politicians Of the
treasury pill, the support Of which involved
a surrender OF democratic principles. Mr..
turner nad the pontlcal sagacltY 10 SeS that
the principles underlying this measure of re
Lief, demanded by the said alliance poll
ticians, were alike opposed to the principles
OF the party and the true prosperity of the
farmers, and had the courage
to oppose these wild legislative schemes
and radical departures from democratic
principles from every stump in this congress
ional district. His bold fight for principle
saved at least two congressional districts of
Georgia from Ocalalsm and populism. There
fore, be IL resolved.
/. That the candidate this day nominated
to represent the Eighth senatorial district be,
and he is hereby instructed, to cast his vote in
the general assembly for Hon. Henry G. Tur-
ner for the long term in the United States
Senate, beginning March !, 1895, and that he
cooperate with other friends of Mr. Turner
in the general assembly in the use of all hon
Orable means to secure his election.
?. That we request the publication OF this
preamble and resolution by the democratic
press throughout Georgia

TENTH TEXAS DISTRICT.
Republicans and Populists Nomin ate
Separate Candidates.


Separate Candidates.
Galveston, Tex, Aug. 30.-Yesterday
at Columbus the populists of the Tenth
congressional district nominated Gen. J.
c. Mcbride for congress. To-day the
republicans of the Tenth district assem-
bled at Dallas and nominated Hon. A. J.
Rosenthal as their candidate for con-
gress.
Following is the state ticket nominated
by the republicans: Governor, w. A. Nc
Henson; lieutenant governor, r. Renfro !;
treasurer, j. G. Low attorney general, J.
A. Hurley; land commissioner, Ed Ander-
son; controller, G.. A. Tomhnson; super
intendent of education, A. H. Calwell a;
chief justice of the supreme court, j. M
Mccormick; associate, c. H. Morris; as
sociate, 9. O. Harris; chief justice cir
cult criminal appeals, w. X. Holman; as
sOciates, Henry Terrell and c. G. White.
The platform favors the extreme re-
publican idea of protection. 1t says: I'VE
denOunce the attitude of the democratic
congress in legislating against the indus
trial interests of the country. We de-
nounce their fragrant discrimination
against agricultural and pastoral growth
everywhere, while fostering combinations
and trusts of aggregated capital, creating
and maintaining monOpolies at the eX-
pense of every consumer and to the injury
of the entire country" 1t then proceeds
to condemn everything democratic, down
to Cleyeland's letter to Catchings.

A BIG PARADE.
The Turnout on Labor Day VIII Be a
Monster One.

New Bedford, Mass. Aug. 30.-As a re-
suit Of the fact that about 1000 workers
in this city are out Of employment, the
Labor day parade of next Monday will be
one of the greatest demonstrations ever
seen in the city, if not in Massachusetts.
Every labor union IN New Bedford Will
participate. The feature of particular
novelty will be the turnout Of women,
member of the Weavers' and Card Room
unions. and If the weather is good they
will come out strong There is no change
in the strike situation in this city.
WILL NOT START soon.
New Bedford, Mass, Aug 3O.-It was
stated by a well known mill man this
afternoon that not a mill in New Bedford
would start up next week as has been
currently reported. He said that he con-
sidered il doubtful if the mills started up
inside of a month. and thought it def
nitely settled that no move in the direc-
ton of opening the mills would be made
inside of two or three weeks at the most.
A most determined step has been taken
by the Card and Picker Room Associa-
ton. 1t seems by the starting up of the
Rowland, Rotch, New Bedford Manufac-
turing Company, Columbia and Bennett
mills, that about one-third of the union
members are now working. To help
their fellow members who are out
on strike, the ma GRITTY of those
working have pledged part of
their earnings weekly to assist in
carrying on the strike. Thus, indirectly
the managers of the mills that are run
ming are aiding the strikers The weav-
ers held a mass meetiag in City hall this
afternoon and voted it was the sense of
the meeting that not a weaver should go
to work under the reduction or until the
mill managers agree to give particulars.
RUNNING ON REDUCED TIME.
Danielsonville Conn, Aug. 30-Mills
at Waurgan, Danielsonville, Williams
vile, Attawauga and other small places
on the Quinebaug and Five Mile rivers
are running from 20 to 80 hours per week
on account of law water. Rivers are the
lowest for over ten years. Unless rain
falls soon some Of the mills may be forced
TO stop entirely.

ATLANTA SPORTS.
A Fine of $500 Assessed Against One
of Them in Court

OF Them in Court.
Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 30.-Another chap
ter in the fight of the city detectives
against the gamblers occurred in Judge
Westmoreland's branch of the city court
to-day, when William Brown plead guilty
TO gaming and keeping a gaming house
and was fined $500 in one case and $500 in
the other. In the course of the proceed
ings Brown, who is well known about
town, filed a deposition swearing of from
cards forever in future. Brown is the
man who was alleged 10 have paid money
10 city detectives for their protection. He
denied this, however, in open court. He is
also said To have benin league with the
detectives when a number of well known
men were arrested in his room a few
weeks ago. 1t was asserted that Brown
had invited them there and then turned
the detectives loose on them. He also
denied this in his deposition aud the
500 fine appears 10 corroborate his denial.
Swearing OFF from cards appears 10 be
the proper caper among those convicted
in Judge Westmoreland's court. Brown
is the third in the last week. A swear
of insures clemency the judge says.

The American Railway Union Seeks
TO Control the Distribution.
Chicago, Aug. 90.-There is trouble at
Pullman among those who have been as
sisted in the work of distributing supplies
TO the needy. 1t is really a strife be-
tween the American Railway Union and
the workmen who did not Join that or
ganllation. The trouble arose over the
appointment of Theodore Ropde as
chairman Of the relief commit
tee. Mcclure, secretary OF the com
mittee, claims that Ropde was
not regularly appointed, that his author
ity 10 serve came from j. W. Heathcote
and r. w. Brown, the leaders of the
strike, when it should have come from
the central committee, who had charge
of relief matters II Is further said that
the members Of the American Rail way
Union seek 10 gain control of the distribu-
ton of relief in order that none but union
men may receive the benefits Il IL.

BUFFALO ELKS.

Atlantic City Elks.

Lodge 20 Votes to Ally Itself With
Atlantic City Elks.
Buffalo, N. Y, Aug, 3O-Bufalo
Lodge No. 23, B. P. 0. Elks, met last
night, and after three hours of an excit-
ing session voted to ally itself with the
Atlantic City faction. Inasmuch as the
exalted ruler of the Buffalo Lodge, Harry
Robe, is a grand trustee of the faction
which met at jamestown, the action OF
the local Elks is significant. The statement
that 50 lodges with a total membership
of 1000 had declared in favor of the At
lantic City contingent, had considerable
influence on the final decision. IL is ex-
pected that the action of the Buffalo
lodge will have the effect of settling the
present controversy between the two
factions, though some of the mem bers
think the split will continue, and that
there will be two separate orders of Elks.

Foy's mill to hear Hon. T. S. Morgan Jr.,
Hon. n. p. Wade and Col. j. A. Brannen
discuss the political issues of the day.
The turnout was at least three times as
large as the more enthusiastic democrats
had expected and shows that the people
Of Bulloch county are almost solid once
more in the democratic ranks. The most
conservative men estimate this county
will go democratic this time by a good
majority. There was a large barbecue
and basket dinner spread and the people,
both white and colored, Toasted to their
hearts content Quite a number of orr
populist friends were out and seemed to
enjoy themselves hugely.
