HON. L. F. SELL, OF JACKSON.
The Georgia Populist, one among
the first and best organs of the peoples
party, carries at its head the name of
the Hon. L. T. Sell, one of Jackson
county's representatives., as business
manager.
Mr.. Sell was democrat until 1892,
when he resigned his position on the
democratic executive committee be-
cause of that party's perfidy and ao-
cepted n similar one with the populists.
He has been twice elected as a dele
gate TO represent his county in the
state convention. Nominated by his
party in 1894 for the general assembly,
he received majority of 1856 votes.
He has introduced bills to abolish
the city court OF his county, which
would have saved heavy costs in the
Judicial machinery of the county; to
make the justices OF the peace the jury
rcvisers, in order to prevent the par
tisan appointees Of superior court
judges from throwing good men out of
| the jury box for partisan reasons; to
extend the jurisdiction of justice
courts SO as to save. superior court
costs, and bill to reduce fees of coun-
| ty officers, but the great democratic
party saw fit to defeat
his bills, which would have
saved the money of the
/ tax payers and given the people more
power to control their affairs.
Mr.. Sell was born in 1864 in jack
son county, Ga, he is a practical
farmer Of lifelong experience and his
record in the house is e good illustra-
tion of the wisdom of farmers and la
borers entrusting their affairs to the
care of men of their own calling who
thoroughly understand their needs and
Will guard their every interest.

status Of tho states interest in the
North Eastern Railroad; also on a
committee of five from the House and
three from the Senate to formulate a
Registration Law, on which commit
tee, by firm stand, he was instru-
mental in modifying the extreme ideas
Of Democrats who were on the com
mittee.
Carroll county could not have Sc
lected two better men to cast her vote
than Messrs. Murrah and Spence.

HON. s. D. GREER, OF HARRIS.
Hon. s. d. Greer, of Harris county,
was born in Taylor county, Georgia,
in 1914, moved to Harris county,
which, in connection with his col
league, Hon. r. B. Traylor, he now
represents, during the year 1869. Mr..
Greer is quiet, thoughtful farmer,
who, much against his Will, was forced
upon the political arena by his per-
sonal and political friends. His con-
seryative politics have won for him the
approval Of his supporters and COM
meudation Of the democratic press of
his county. A democrat until
the peoples party sprang up
to advocate the cause of the people.
He was this party's choice for the
house in 1892, but was defeated by
$50 majority. As the populist nom
inee in 1884 he reversed this majority
and was elected by the votes of $500
of Harris countys yeoman.
Mr.. Greer was placed by the speaker
on the following important commit
tees, to-wit: Agriculture, lunatic as
lynn, manufacturers and peui.
Tertiary. Mr.. Greer has made a
brad working committeeman and
a faithful membar of tho
house. He has supported and worked
for bills no matter by whom intro
duced when they were IN line with
the needs of the people and consistent
with the promises Of the Peoples
Party to the people OF Georgia.

Hon. J. J. Pope of HARRISON county,
is Primitive Baptist preacher who
stands high in the estimation of his
people, like most Of his faith and order
he was a democrat of the strictest sort
until 1898, when he was compelled to
go to the populist party to find the
true principles OF democracy. Haral-
son county is probably tho banner
county of Georgia as regards per cent
ofchange from modern democracy to
popuIism, the democratic majority of
over 800 in 1892 being changed
to majority of nearly 400
for Hon. j. j. Pope in 1894.
Born in Newton county, Georgia, in
1853 he las since 1855 lived in Her-
alison county, his present home, and
as a farmer and school teacher his
time has been spent proftably to him
self and his fellow man, for he stands
high as p teacher and minister. AT
the request of his people he secured
the passage Of bill chartering the
college at Buchanan, the county site OF
his county.

1t affords me real pleasure to say a
few words about man like Sam En-
mis-, of Baldwin county, quiet aud IN
assuming, but rs brave and fearless II
man rs ever trod the halls of Georgia's
capitol. Ii every county in Georgia
had such men to espouse the cause Of
her people, then the foul Blot of
men honestly elected turned out
by partisan spirit run riot, would
never have stained the fair pages
OF her history. With q commend
able spirit of fairness and submission
to the viii OF the majority, Sam in
formed his opponent that if defeated
he would submit without murmur
And if, on the other hand, he, Ennis,
was elected and a contest was entered
to Gust him from his fairly won seat,
there would be a funeral at which one
of the opposing candidates for the
legislature would be the corpse.
Sam was elected by u majority Of
only s votes, and there 1aas no contest.
A democrat until 1892, he was
forced TO quit the party because it
failed to fulfill any of its promises.
Being the only avowod populist in the
field. he was defeated for tax assessor
by 40 votes ia 1893 in 1894 he was
elected as populist to the house by
S votes majority.
MIR. Ennis is an alIinncemen, far
mer. and was born in Baldwin county,
Ga, in 1853. True to his promises to
his people, he has supported appro-
priations for the insane asylum and
the girls normal school, which are
located in BALDWIN county, and the
principles OF the peoples party plat

Mr. Joseph Upton was bachelor Of
exceedingly methodical habits Prim
and neat in appearance, he never affect
ed any new fashions, but always looked
exactly the same day after day-pepper
and salt colored trousers, with. black
cutaway coat. No one had ever seen
him in different attire Not even when
he was supposed to be indulging in a
holiday did he condescend to a moro
comfortable looking costume. He was
10 much the creature Of routine that it
would have been no comfort to have
been in any other garments than those
he usually wore. He was short, his fig
ure had slight idea of developing into
rotundity, but evidently it was only a
half formed idea. for ho remained COM
paratively thin. He had mild, ordina-
ry looking face, which he tried to make
severe by cultivating his rather thick
eyebrows we'll over his eyes, hut if you
took the trouble to look underneath them
and behind the gold trimmed glasses
you would have discovered that his eyes
were Of dull grayish hue, tho reverse
Of what he desired to make them ap.
pear Still the little irritable, narrow
lines about the mouth and chin prevent
ed his face from wearing that beneyo-
lent look which would have made chill.

The Writing of "Ben-Har"

General Lew Wallace in his lecture
OH "Ben-Hur" recounts somo facts in
connection with the writing of that IA
nous novel. At the time he wrote the
story General Wallace had never visited
the Holy Land, and under the oircum.
stances his accurate pictures are little
short of marvellous. All the information
he had was obtained from personal &C.
quaintances who had travelled through
Palestine and from reading the writings
Of other authors. A large map was be-
fore him as he wrote, and he constantly
had to draw on his imagination, but in
this respect he was always fortunate
and never made blunder in his descrip.
tions. In fact, the Palestine Of "Ben.
Hur" is generally regarded as authori-
tative, and General Wallace relates with
keen relish how q younger author wrote
a story, the scene Of which was laid in
the Holy Land, and stole all his descrip.
tions bodily from "Ben-Hur. !" General
Wallace says that his hardest task in
writing the book was to find hero.
His favorite passage in the story is the
scene Of Ben-Hur's house, where he de-
scribes the miracles Of Christ General
Wallace believes that more art is dis
played in this passage than even in the
famous chariot race, which is generally
regarded as the strongest passage OF the
hook

have never regretted that I babe him
90. Then came dreadful days, but the
most dreadful Of all was when we read
that the Germans had betrayed the land,
and that they had given up our land,
with all our dead, to the Danes! Then
called on the Lord and said: o Lord,
my God, how is that possible? Why let
test thou the wicked triumph and allow
est the just to perish?'
"And I was told that the Germans
were sorry for what they had done, but
that they could not help it. But that,
gentlemen, I could never understand
We should never do wrong nor allow
wrong to be done. And therefore,
thought, it cannot always remain So
Our good Lord knows his own good
time, and in his own good time he will
come and deliver u.s. And I prayed ev-
cry evening that our gracious Lord
would permit me to see that day when
the land should be free and our dear
dead should sleep no more in Danish
soil. And as I had no other son against
that day I saved every year what I
could save, and on every Christmas eve
I placed it before me on a table, where,
in former years, / had always placed a
small present for my John, and l said
in my heart, The war will come again,
and the land win be free, and thou
shalt sleep in a free grave, my only

woman has been told that tho day has
come, and that her prayer has been

again, and that is why she has brought
her money-the money she saved for
her son. Good morning, gentlemen"
But before she had left the room all
old gentleman said, loud enough for
her to hear: Poor bodyl I hope she
may not be deceived.
"Ah," said the old woman, turning
back, II know what you mean. have
been told all is not right yet, but have

THE BETTER PART.

There's gray old church on wind swept hill
Where three bent yew trees cover.
The gypsy roses grew there still,
And the thyme and st. Johns gold flower,
The pale blue violets that love the chalk
Cling light round the lichen stone,
And starlings chatter and gray owls talk
In the belfry O. nights alone.
It's a thousand leagues and thousand years
From the brick built gas lit town
To the church where the wild thyme hears
The bees and the breeze of the down.
The town is crowded and hard and rough.
Let those fight in its press who will,
But the little churchyard is quiet enough,
And there's room in the churchyard still.
