WAY rhsre shonld be a oaueus.

As soon as it was known that the pop
ulists had elected a large number of the
members of the legislature, the Morning
News said that the democratic Legislators
ought to hold a caucus for the purpose of
choosing a candidate for senator. Can
didates for the other offices which are TO
be filled by the legislature should also be
selected by d caucus.
The reasons for a caucus are so clear
and strong that it is strange that there
are democrats who oppose it. The Demo-
cratic party will be held responsible for
whatever the legislature does. If in
capable men, or men who are not in thor
ough harmony with democratic princi-
pies, are put into places Of responsibility
and trust, the Democratic party will be
the sufferer.
If the populists are permitted to have a
voice in the choice OF a senator or other
officer it Is almost certain that there will
be combinations with the populists. and
in these combinations something will
have to be conceded to them.
If the democrats should refuse to grant
them concessions they would nominate
and vote for candidates of their own po-
IiticaI faith. They would have no reason
for acting with the democrats.
They know, of course, that they cannot
elect a populst to any one of the places
to be filed without the consent of demo-
Gratis, but this consent might be obtained
in one or two or more instances in con-
siderauon of the assistance they could
give a combination of democrats who are
desirous Of accomplishing certain ends.
The populists might even succeed in
bringing about the election of senator,
who, although processing to be demo-
crat, might be almost as satisfactory to
them as an outspoken populist.
We do not mean to say that there are
democratic members of the Legislature
who would deliberately vote for a man
for senator who was not known to be a
democrat of the most sterling character,
but we do say that in a heated and bitter
contest man might be chosen senator
with the help of the populists who would
not prove true to democratic principles
if an emergency should arise in the Sen
ate requiring every SGlidtOl " oHoW Aihl
self in his true colors.
1t is impossible to predict with any de-
gree of certainty what party questions
are likely to arise in the Senate, but it is
certain that the democrats of Georgia
want to feel that if such questions should
arise their senators would be true to
democratic principles.
The only way to have tried and true
democrats in the places of honor and re-
sponsibiity is for democrats. and demo
Gratis alone, to choose them. The only
reason there can be for allowing the popu-
lists to assist in selecting the senator and
other officers is that they may be used
to bring about the election of some par
ticular man. In that case the populists
would have to be given something-eithei
some of the offices, or some of the off,
eials would have to be, for good reasons
| acceptable to them. The Democratic
party cannot afford to make any bargains
| or concessions. In order to retain the
! confidence of the people, it must fill the
offices with the purest and ablest mer
within It's ranks.

1t is little peculiar that the supporters
OF Maj. Bacon should regard the move
ment in favor OF caucus as an anti
Bacon movement If the major has as
many democratic votes pledged to him
as IL is alleged he has. he will have no
trouble in controlling the caucus The de-
mand for a caucus was made in order that
the populists might not control the Sc
lection Of men to MI the several offices at
the disposal OF the Legislature. II Maj
Bacons election depends upon populist
votes. It is well enough that he should be
shut out by the caucus. II It does not de-
pend upon upplist votes the caucus will
not hurt him.

orisp's District and Farmers.
From valdosta (Ga) Telescope tDem)

Without snatching a single laurel from
the gallant Crisp, 1t may be stated that
comparatively speaking, his district came
up a thousand votes behind MIR. Turner S
majority. The democratic majority there
was 729 less than was Mr.. Crisps plu-
rality two years ago, while in the Eleve-
enth district ii was only 625 less than Mr..
Turner'S plurality for the corresponding
year. OF course Mr. Crisp was placed at
a disadvantage by having the endorsement
of the Constitution. Mr.. Turner's cam
paign for the Senate has been conducted
on q high plane and he has neither adopted
nor allowed his friends, to use the little
methods that have been used against him.
He stands the peer of any man in America
in illustrious ability, and the greatest
tribute to him is that his traducers are
afraid to place him squarely and honestly
before the people.

CURRENT COMMENT.
"GoldbuR', and Humbup.

From the valdosta (Ga,) Times Dem.).
1t is better to be "goldbug' in the sense
that ii is applied to Grover Cleveland,
than to be vacillating humbug without
principles or purposes, which are not
prompted by malice and the love of rule.
If Grover Cleveland is a "goldbug" then
the appellation is a coronation of honor
when applied to sound money advocates
in Georgia.

The story is current in New York that
Senator Hill VIII not resign his seat in
the Senate, If he is elected governor Of
New York, I'm case the next Legislature Of
that state is republican. 1t IS generally
understood that ex-senator Thomas c.
Platt bosses the Republican party Of
New York, hence If Senator Hin were to
resign the senatorship Mr.. Plat would
dictste his successor II the legislature
were rvpublncan. The senator, if elect
ed, would, therefore, resign the governor

wood 10 qualify as governor. thus shut

I lay awake and listened to the voices in

Mourning some faint and beautiful refrain,
And I heard the distant echoes, on the

AS it sang it's witching chorus to the
strain
But / merely idly pondered
Listening to the music sweet,
Never dreaming that the voices
Chanted only Marguerite"
