A POSSIBLE CANDIDATE.
go.

The Macon Bee is authority for the in
nation that Maj. j. f. Hanson's anti
democratic speech may be the initiatory
step of that gentleman's entry into race
for congress. In connection with the
matter, the Bee says:
Here is the way his position is figured
out He went to Ohio and stumped the
state for Mckinley last fall. While
there, and since, he discussed the polit-
ical situation thoroughly with anti-dem-
ocratic leaders. AS result, he has been
assigned to the work of revolutionizing
politics in this district with seat in
congress and the restoration of the Nc
Kiuley tariff schedule as a hope of re-
ward.
Inspired by their recent success, the
republican leaders are preparing for the
greatest campaign in the history of.the
party. With solid republican lines from
one end of the country to the other, aug
mented by the DIVISIONS of democracy
which they greatly overate, they havebeen
bold enough to plan nothing less than a
clean sweep of the entire country. They
expect to invade the solid south and send
many meu of Hanson's political faith to
congress.
Wherever they have got man of any
strength and standing at all in south
ern district they will put him out, furnish
money, imported orators and other effec-
tive influences to elect them to congress,
hoping thereby to give organized democ-
racy a blow from which it will never
recover.

ABOUT PRIMARIES,

THE News heartily agrees with the
Gwinnett Herald when it says the day OF
caucuses aud county conventions ought
to be ended in the democratic party in
the several counties Of Georgia. The
people understand how they are manip-
ulated.
Under the present law sof the state
primaries can be held under the same
rules and regulations provided for cleo
tions. This gives every man an equal
chance to vote his choice at his own
precinct, without having to lose day
going TO the county site to attend con-
vention or mass meeting.
If the democratic party is expected to
be bound by a nomination, give every
democrat an equal chance to express his
choice. In this way the harmony of the
partv can be maintained. Any effort tc
control the party method without fail
expression of popular opinion Will not

a COTTON FAcT0RK.

As has been frequently remarked in
these columns before, Dawson must
have cotton factory.
Necessarily, the south will first manu-
fac.ure the great bulk of the coarser
goods, but gradually she will undertake
the manufacture of the finer goods. AS
the labor becomes skilled and her CAPT
tai increases she will be in position to
successfully compete with the north in
the manufacture of the higher grades.
This being true, the community that
moves first will reap the best results.
THE NEWS would again urge upon the
business men of Dawson the necessity of
building cotton factoryhere, nor will it
cease it's efforts until that end is accom-
plished. There is money lying idle in
Dawson, and now that labor and material
are cheap there is no better time where
in TO push the enterprise to success.
Dawson must have a cotton factory.

THE JOINT DEBATES.

The series of joint discussions arrang-
ed between General Evans and Mr.. At
kinson we're begun at Griffin last We'd
nesday and will end to-day at Hawkins
Vile. Debates have occurred at Griffin,
Athens and Rome, and appear to have
given very general satisfaction to their
respective friends.
According to the best reports the ma
jority of the crowd at each place appears
to have been Evans men, and he aroused
the greater enthusiasm. At Griffin, Mr..
Atkinson's old stamping ground, two
thirds of the audience of $500 people
were for General Evans according to the
Atlanta Constitution, Notwithstanding
the fact that MI. Atkinson's managers
did everything to gather his forces there,
even distributing free railroad tickets to
all who would take them.
The two candidates do not differ mate
rally in their views on state and national
issues. General Evans is the more sin
cere. He says what he things without
considering what effect his utterances
will have. For instance, he favors an
income tax not because he wants to place
a special burden upon the rich, but be-
cause he thinks the tax is founded upon
correct principle. Mr.. Atkinson, if he
is correctly reported, approves an in
come tax because he thinks there should
be discrimination against the rich.
Mr.. Atkinson did not appear to be sure
of his ground in respect to the money
question at Griffin. He wants an honest
currency, and seems to favor the free
coinage of silver at ratio different from
the existing one If he believes in
changing the ratio, he evidently does
not think the present silver dollar al
honest one. .
General Evans speeches show that he
is we'll acquainted with state and nation
al questions, and that he is disposed to
discuss them frankly. He states his
opinions clearly and gives his reasons for
them He is a master of English, aud has
used it to his advantage in the debates,
being heartily cheered during the deliv-
cry of each speech. Even the Newman
band was unable to stop him when they
tried to drown him out at Griffin.
The result of the meetings demonstrates
that the people are not willing to entrust
the reins of government to man who can
see nothing good or useful in any one
but himself, and who arrogates to him
self all the credit for all the good work
ofrecent legislatures and the big victories
of the party. The old hero of the six
ties, who has spotless record, and who
is making the race at the call of the peo-
pie and not at che command of personal
egotism, has scored a victory at every
meeting. His nomination is more Ger
tain than ever.
