pion of populsm in this section.

were present about 500 voters Judge
Mershon opened the debate with a strong
democratic speech. He was followed by
Bishop. Bishop made an hours speech
and had much to say about nothing. Col.
Wilson then spoke. His speech was the
most eloquent he ever made and was the
best democratic address the writer ever
heard in Georgia This is a deserved COM
pliment to one of the most brilliant sons
of South Georgia.
Col Wilson said that Bishop advocated
the government ownership of railroads
and was opposed to the repeal of the tax
on railroads. The government would
not pay taxes on railroads." he said, "and
the county and state would
lose the taxes" The question
of national banks was referred
to. Bishop had said that
the present national system was robbery
and he wanted it abolished. Wilson
showed that Bishops partner in busi-
ness, a populist, was president of the
Brunswick National Bank He said
Bishop voted the republican ticket prev
ious to 1858, and was nothern man who
had no friendship for the solid south.
Col. Mcdonald said that ne had served
about twenty years in the legislature,
and no vote or act of his had been criti-
cised by the people Of this county He
was going to continue to serve the people
faithfully. The meeting was a decided
success for the democrats. II was the
opening of Col Wilson's campaign in this
district. His opponent, MIR. Grifis, de-
clined TO speak, and during the meeting
sat down beside pine tree and chewed
tobacco and whitfield on stick

The washington's Victorious.

Two teams, known as the Bella Unions
and WaShiDgtOnS, engaged in baseball
match game at the San Pedro park last
Saturday afternoon. The game proved
one OF the most interesting and xciting
contests that took place on those memoir
able battle grounds for some time. The
score at the wind-up was to in favor
of the WashingtonS.
Prominent among the players OF the
victorious team were: "Lennie" Green,
pitcher; Charles Gates, first base; Louis
Rooney, short stops; Tom Wade, third
base; John Green, right held. They all
PLAYED good ball and took great interest
In the game, which made it so for the
fifty spectators that turned out to witness
it. Two players, however, were over
looked, and they are Emmett Rogers and
Red Sutor. The former caught and the
latter played centre field. Rogers played
his usual good game and Red" surprised
everyone the way he played the field and
used the stick. Tom Wade played third
in regular Billy Nash style, and John
Green in right was corker.
Lennie Green played second base the
forepart of the game, and pitched the last
half. His hitting and fielding were above
the average. Little Tommy Rooney, NO
relation whatever to time worn Annie,
and big Charley Gates, played on the reg
nlar professional order, and those who
missed the game, missed one OF the best
exhibitions of the season.
The vanQuished team was made up OF
Harry Holmes, Joe MOrney, ESpideon
RiVaS and number of outsiders. They
we're playing against a good team and put
up good game, considering that TACT
Their hitting was not quite as hard and
frequent as the opposing teams, but they
seemed to field pretty near as we'll.
