MIR. WATsON'S APPOINTM ENTS.

Thomson, October 20.
V0te.-At the above named places
l hope to meet those who are inter
ested. from the standpoint OF patrl-
otism, in the great cause OF good
government.
The discussion will be confined
almost exclusively to questions OF
Finance, Transportation and Taxa
ton. Partisan politics, save from
those standpoints, will not be treated
at all. My purpose is to have a
calm, dispassionate examination of
our present methods of Legislation
and administration as compared
with the principles of Jefferson and
as compared with the constitution
itself. 49,
II viii be > aim to so Oreat these
questions that no Democrat present
will have cause to say that his feel
ings or his convictions are treated
with disrespect.
Where we must continue to diff.
fer, it is my wish that we may do SC
with mutual goodwill and mutual
forbearance.
, To avoid as far as possible all dis.
agreeable incidents and all excessive
display of partisan zeal, will de-
cline to enter into debates" with
anyone whomsoever.

The action of Mr.. Cleveland in
appointing negroes to represent this
government at some of the most i'm
portant consulates was a slap in the
face to every Southern man who
voted the Democratic ticket. 1t was
an insult to the Southern people
antagonistic to social equality. 1t is
a disgrace to the government and
something which no Republican

pe natives became guilty of
against their English mas
From our standpoint the natives
are heathens, and the English are
Christians. af''io,
The heathens shot down an Eng
lishman who was shamefully abusing
one of their comrades.
How did the Christians set the
matter right? z g
By taking eleven of those benight-
ed heathens and shooting them from
the lannon's mouth.
Here is the cool manner in which
he London papers narrate this be-
nevolent occurrence
FROM THE cANNoN's MOUTH.
LONDON, Oct. THE Calcutta
correspondent of the Times says:
"Lahore advices state that there
was serious disturbance in Cabul
before the arrival of the British Mis-
sion, under Sir H. M. Durand, on
Monday. Malik Jan Kan, Assistant
COMMANDMENT. chief of the army,
abused a Sepoy belonging to the
Herati Regiment, whereupon the
Sepoy's company fired a volley, kill
ing Malik.
'The mutineers fled at once, but
were caught on the same day.
"Eleven of them we're blown from
the lannon's mouth"
In this manner do our Christian
rulers aid our Missionaries in con-
vincing the 'poor heathens" that we
are devoted followers of the "Meek
and lowly Jesus"
AS long as the heathens of India
Africa, Siam, and China know the
people of Europe only as rapacious
and remorseless gang of plunderers
and thieves, the huge sums of money
spent on Missionary work will bear
no adequate results. T. E W.

is that everybody knows it.
VIOLATING THE LAW.
Senator Luois Davis, of Georgia,
is still holding his place in the State
Senate; also a place under the Fed
oral Government.
This certainly violates the spirit,
if not the letter of the law. Is con-
trary to the uniform practice hereto
fore. Yet these Democratic Bosses
who hold two offices at the same
time are the very fellows who viii
fed the Populists for "wanting

an election
Because he fears the Populists
will win that seat, Just as we did in

GOVERNOR NoRTHEN's LETTER
Atlanta Constitution.
The Washington Gazette is some
what in the dark in regard to Gov
ernor Northen's letter to President
Cleveveland, but it cannot refrain
from the following general COM
ment:
eve should like to read Governor
Northen's letter to the President
giving an account of things in Geor-
gia. This called for the Presidents
letter. The Atlanta Constitution
has read and commends it.
awe have the highest confidence
in Governor Northen's honesty of
sentiment, and do not believe he has
particle of factlous spirit. Still,
the Governor made a statement
about matters in regard to which
there is a good deal of difference of
opinion and large number Of the
most intelligent and substantial bust
ness men, farmers as well as mer-
chants, disagree with the Consti-
tuition. There is disaffec-
ton and division in Georgia. When
the tariff question comes up, when
cotton sells for good price, the
ranks will close up again and the
Populists receive a final and crush
ing blow"
Our contemporary labors under a
mistaken impression. We have not
read the Governors letter, nor has
the substance of it been communi-
Gated to US, except in such a manner
as we could get it from hearsay.
We are satisfied, however, that its
statements concerning the situation
here in Geoagia were characterized
by that conservatism which appears
in almost everything that emanates
from Governor Northen's pen. II
the letter called attention to the i'm.
patience manifested In the Demo.
cratic ranks over the unnecessary
delay in redeeming the pledges Of
the Chicago platform, the Gazett,
must admit that the facts of the case
Justify the Governors anxiety. The
result of various recent county cleo,
lions in Georgia shows that it is i'm
peritively necessary to convince the
masses that the promises of our plat.
form will be speedily carried out.
Our Washington contemporary pre-
diets that when the tariff question il
settled and cotton sells for gooc
price, our ranks will close up and thu
Popuhsts will meet with a crushing
defeat. But when will Congress
dispose of the tariff? Why not d.
something with it, instead of wasting
valuable time in the committed
room, listening to the appeals of thu
protected manufacturers Congress
has been in session two months, AM
practically nothing has been accom-
p)ished. There is no excuse for thi

Is still grinding out chm music. The
Senate is debating Silver, and the
House is talking about frazzled and
decayed scare-crow called the "Force

bombarded with some very fine ora

upon the Force Bill issue. He was
asked, in effect, if the negroes in
Mississippi should have the right to
vote the right TO "manhood suf-
