There is not the slightest necessit,

wrong is done,

That wrong is also done to US; and they are
slaves most base

Christ said. '.If you love me keen
my commandments, and the COM
mandment was: ''As We would that
others should do unto you, do We even
so unto them" That settles the uues-
tion, solves the problem, makes every-
thing clear, straightens all the crooked
pathways of life, lifts, ennobles and
sublimates human nature, eliminates
selfishness and introduces love-in a
word, only those are true to God who
are true to men whenever wrong is
done.

larges his dominions to afford them
accommodations by and by.
When the wrong is done Ito the
humblest and weakest" then is the
time for the bravest and the strongest
to help them--and when, under such
circumstances, men hesitate, who have
no love of right except for themselves,
are ''slaves most base"-mOral and

Gold the commercial standard of the
world! Gold the money of the world
The satellites and minions of mammor
who thus cxclaim, like the ancient
sooth-sayers, when they meet sslooked
each other in the face and smiled. >
Boldness Ovcrawes the timid. and the
mysterious confounds. the ignorant.
They proclaim through the newspa-
pers, and on the hustings, that gold is
the money of the world; that no ma
ton can make money-that God made
money-and that all efforts by man tc
make money and regulate the value
thereof are impious.
The satellites and minions of power
and place, but few years ago, main
tained that kings ruled bydivine right:
but when that right was challenged,
it does not appear that God came to
earth on special mission to take care
of his deputies. Besides. if gold is the
money of the world. the less we use at
home the more we have to use abroad.
The champions of mammon, while
denying the power of the government
to make money, and meekly insisting
that God has invested gold with the ex-
elusive privilege OF being money, pray
earnestly and long that receivability
Tor taxes and legal tender for debt be
limited to gold! And why? Because,
without these functions gold would be
stripped OF its prestige and descend to
the vulgar grade OF commerce. What
ever else the goveanment might de-
clare receivable for taxes, and make a
legal tender for debt, would be money;
and as such, equally serviceable as a
medium of exchange, but interjects

be left to care for, as all would be
overwhelmed in ruin.-G. w. Jones,

and yet while he fought for it as when
he grasped it no one could have found
IN any word or look of his the least evil
dence that the whole stirring time
wasn't the easiest and most evenly bal

AS is well understood, judge Crisn
was to be elected United States senator
from Georgia when the legislature con-
vened today. This was an honor
he coveted, and it seems the ironv of
fate that he should be stricken down
just as the goal is won. The people of
Georgia were anxious to confer this
honor upon him, and his election
would have been encompassed without
a dissenting vote.
THE BODY IN STATE.
At 10 80 O'Clock Saturday mOrnino
the body of the dead statesman was re.
moved from the sanitarium to the
capitol, where it lay in state until 7 :3C

Gus the remains were placed in the

NO SCRUB RACE THIS YEAR.
PRIMARY FOR MAYOR AND AL.
DERMEN.
Citizens Take the Matter in Hand
And Order a Primary For
.-
November 5th.

There will be no scrub race for mayor
and aldermen in Dawson this year. The
people have had enough of that, and
have decided to choose the municipal
officers in decent and orderly way.
Wednesday night about $50 of the best
citizens of the city met at the court
house to take the nomination of NUM-
cipal ticket under advisement and the
result was the calling of primary to
nominate mayor and three aldermen on
November 5th.
Prof. j. W. F. Lowrey stated the OBJ
Ject of the meeting, and upon his mo-
ton Judge J. M. Griggs was elected to
the chair.
Hon. o. B. Stevens introduced reso-
luton naming Messrs j. W. F. Lowrey
E. j. Hart, F. M. McNuJty, L. D. Hatch
er, G. F, Ward, S. P. Christie and T. E.
Gurr as city democratic executive COM
mlttee, with the power to call demo-
cratic primary. A motion to table was
lost, and Mr.. j. W. F. Lowrey offered as
a substitute that primary be called by
the meeting for November 5th. Mr.. NJ.
Z. Edwards offered as a substitute for
the whole that the chair appoint COM
mittee consisting of Hon. A. j. Baldwin
and DR.. W. 3. Cheatham, candidates for
mayor, to select an executive committee.
Several speeches were made on the diff
terent resolutions, and vote resulted in
the adoption of the one offered by Mr..
Lowrey by 50 to 81.
The meeting then adjourned without
providing for managers to hold the pri-
mary. The candidates for mayor will
! arrange this by selecting the managers.
The crowd was pretty evenly divided
between the two factions, and both ex-
press themselves as satisfied with the
result of the meeting.
A CARD FROM MR.. L. A. HATCHER.
To THE CITIZENS OF DAWSON: AS it
is being urged against DR.. Cheatham in
his candidacy for mayor that if elected 1
will be made chief of police, hereby
state that will not be candidate for
such position, nor will accept it under
any circumstances. 1 further state
will not accept any position on the police
force of the city of Dawson.

A FIGHT FOR CRIsP's SEAT.
Several Candidates Want 1t. Evans FavoI-
lite For Governor in the Event of At
kinsOn's Promotion

SeVeraI candidates Want 1t. Evans FavOJ-
lite For Governor in the Event of At.
kinsOn's Promotion.
From The Atlanta Journal.
Governor Atkinson will be in the race
for United States senator.
Mr.. Steve Clay will also be in the race.
Captain Evan P. Howell is looking
over the field and will enter the contest,
Hon. Pat Walsh is being doomed for
the senatorship.
General Clemant A. Evans is the ia
vorite and will be put forward as the
democratic candidate for governor to
succeed Atkinson and is also mentioned
for the senate.
Mr.. Robert L. Berner, if he is elected
president of the state senate, will be
governor temporarily, it Coy, Atkinson
is elected, and will in all PROBABILITY enter
the race for the unexpired term.
Ex-TreasuTer Hardeman, who it has
been understood would make the race
for governor two years hence, will in all
probability, enter the race for the unex-
pired term.
The pOpulists and republicans will
probably fuse and put out some strong
man. Mr.. Watson is most prominently
mentioned to make the race against the
democrat candidate.
This seems to be the POLITICAL situa-
ton as near as it can be determined as a
result of Mr.. Crisp's death, and as con-
sequent party friends for long years will
be separated and old political ties will
be broken.
