the debate, and serious variance be-

The farmers of Georgia thanked him for
his efforts for agriculture. He aided La

misrule and was empowered by Governor
Hampton to look after South Cardinals in
terests having canvaSSed the state for its

Of Thomas jefferson" His last election
as United States senator was marvellous
political victory. Unopposed. until he an
tagonized the subtreasury plan of the
Farmers Alliance. which had four-fifths of
the legislature in its favor, he was elected
after the most exciting contest of the time
In the wild enthusiasm succeeding his vic
tory he was borne by the multitude through
the capitol to the streets, placed on a cais-
son and drawn about the city, amid shouts
and rejoicing. while the whole state was
ablaze with bonfires Mr. Gordon was all
his life a model of social worth and an
ardent Christian worker.
In late years he had Travelled through the
western country as lecturer, his lecture
on 1.-THE Last Days of the Confederacy''
being regarded by many as a most interest
ing and forceful presentation of the closing
hours of that southern regime. Wherever
he lectured he was greeted with large audi
ences, and was also made the recipient
of many social attentions from many IN
the higher walkseof life, regardless of per-
sonal or local political views.
