GEORGIA DEMOCRATS
Nominate a State Ticket and Make
Patriotic Speeches

Atlanta, Ga. June 29.-The demo-
Gratis of Georgia today formally plac-
ed in nomination the ticket chosen by
them at the primaries June 3rd, headed
with Allen d. Chandler for governor.
The war with Spain overshadowed
all issues. Patriotic utterances and
references to a united country began
with the first speech. Hon. Z. T.
Brown, temporary chairman, in his
speech said:
The world looks on in amaZement.
Less than thirty-five years ago one
section was arrayed against the other
in internecine war, the like of which
was never witnessed on the globe, and
yet when the first foreign foe would
dare insult the national honor or lay
his unhOly hand upon the national flag,
these two, as if they had never been
apart, rush together with one accord,
with one purpose to see which can do
greatest honor to his country's cause"
The platform pledges the state of
Georgia "to the flag of our country"
and affirmS the cause for which the
United States is engaged in war with
Spain is just and righteous and on the
subject says further:
There is cause for universal con-
graduation in the fact that the patri-
otic uprising of the whole people has
obliterated sectionalism from the pol
itics of our country; and while the
people Of the south unite with those
of the north in cordial enthusiasm over
the marvellous victory Of Dewey in an
initiating Spains Asiatic fleet, it is
gratifying to observe that those of
the north are no less cordial in be
slowing praise and commendation upon
the heroic deeds of the two brave
young southerners, Bagley and Hob
son, who with their intrepid comrades,
have won distinction which will rem
der their names immortal and add new
lustre to the American navy"

Commission House Sales Form the
Principal Support.

New York, Nov. l5.-The Treasury
statement for October of the country's
foreign trade was the most interesting
circumstance of the day. The showing
throws clear light upon the present
powerful position the United States oc-
cupy in the foreign exchanges. AS COM
pared with last year there was small
increase in the imports of merchandise,
the amount being about 81, 100000 The
country's exports for the month in
creased about s7,o00,O00 over those of last
October and the excess of exports over
imports was s66, 81, ,03S. For the ten
months of the calendar year the excess
of exports amounted to s60i,2 .S02 and
against this the gold imports for the
period foot up only Sl29596.2i6. After
making all the proper allowances in the
shape of interest payments, freight
charges, etc, it is evident that the
country has some reserve balance which
may be drawn upon in the event of u
closer money market in New York.
Current operations for foreign account
in the stock market indicate a disposi-
tion to liquidate Europe's Indebtedness
to this country through the sale of Sc
curities. and there could be no more pro-
pitious occasion than the present for the
reabsorption of our foreign-held stocks
and bonds. London houses again sold
heavily in the local market, disposing of
upward of -. 900 shares of various stocks.
There was also heavy profit-realizing sell
ling for local account, and the traders
hammered one stock after anotherson the
theory that reaction was reasonably
due. In these circumstances the market
developed an uncertain tone. Its princi-
pal support was again in the purchases
of commission houses, and the broad and
well distributed dealings showed that
there was little diminution in outside in

cally no news bearing upon the general

CHARGEABLE TO POLITICS.
aIrs. FELTON, on the Recent Race
Riots in North Carolina

Atlanta, Ca, Nov. Elm answer to the
charge that an address Of hers instigated
the article published by Manly. the negro
editor, which precipitated the North
Carolina race riots, Mrs. ". ii. FELTON,.
wife of former Congressman FELTON,, OF
Georgia, replies In a statement to the
press in which she reiterates the vital
portions of her speech and declares that
1000 negroes should be lynched every
week, if necessary to protect the white
women of the South. Mrs. FELTON, says:
I'm reply to the statements made in the
New York papers that Manly-s editorial
was made in reply to my address before
the Agricultural Society. at Tybee. one
year ago last August. | here repeat what
was said at Tybee. and reaffirm the
same:
Addressing farmers. | said: The cry
ing need of women on the farms is secur-
ity for their lives and homes. IL Is dis
grace in a free country where rape and
violence are public reproach and the best
part of Gods creation are trembling ana
afraid to be left alone in their homes.
With due respect to your politics, say
that when you take the negro into your
embraces on election day to control his
vote and use liquor to befuddle his un-
derstanding and make him believe he Is
your man and brother. when you honey
snuggie him at the polls and make him
familiar with dirty tricks in politics so
long will lynching prevail, because the
cause will grow and increase with every
election. and when there is not enough re-
ligion in the pulpit to organize d crusade
against this sin nor justice in the court
house to promptly punish the crime. nor
manhood enough in the nation TO put a
sheltering arm about innocence and vir-
tue. If it requires lynching TO protect wo-
mans dearest possession from rayaging.
drunken human beasts. then, / say, lynch
a thousand a week if it is necessary
Since that address was made. the
crime and lynchings have decreased 30
per cent in Georgia. The condition in
North Carolina is the manifest result of
corruption in politics and undue familiar
ity with North Carolina negroes at the
polls. II is the unwritten law in Georgia
that the black fend who destroys white
woman in her home or on the highway
and is identified. with proof positive, must
die without clergy, judge or jury.
Il know that tens of thousands OF hon
orable. colored men and women in Georgia
viii approve the verdict. The race will
be destroyed by the whites in self-defense
unless law and order prevail in regard to
the crime of rape and the lynching that
follows. | placed the blame where it
should be in my Tybee address. Such
politics will ruin the prosperity Of the
South and destroy the colored race at
last When the negro Manly attributed
the crime of rape To lewd intimacy be-
tween negro men and the white women of
the South the slanderer should be made To
fear a Ixynpbar'e than
a place in the New York newspapers.
