should cast his vote in this election is
that our congressman, representing as
they do 100000 people, have in previous
elections received only from 5000 to
5000 votes. 1t is for this reason that
the Republicans argue that a large
part of our voting population is dis
franchised. This, of course, weakens
the influence of our congressman and
puts them upon the defensive and
cripples their usefulness.
Our Democratic voters owe it to
themselves and to their interest to see
that their congressman receive a full
vote and large majority.
1t would make my heart rejoice to
see in Georgia a Democratic majority
OF 100000 on Nov. 8. 1t is within our
power to give it to our nominees, and
II is our duty to do so. Let every
Democrat who participated in the pri-
mary Of April 20 go to the polls on
Nov. and cast his ballot for the
straight Democratic nominees.

THE PRESENT CALM is
DUE TO EXHAUSTION.

Mukden. Oct. 22.-Field Marshal
Oyama's counter offensive was definite
ly checked with the loss of men, guns
and munitions.
Gen. Kuropatkin's army extends
along a line running over twelve and
a half miles south of Mukden and is
supported by strong Notifications on
the Hun river. The present calm is
enforced by the exhaustion of the ar
mics on both sides, which lost in killed
and wounded $4,000 men during the ten
days fighting.
There is every indication that the
battle will be resumed soon and that
a decisive result will be achieved.

can only be undertaken by the Demo-

will not attempt IT. 1t only promises
such a revision as the friends of the
tariff wish. AS they do not wish any
revision downward there will be none
in that direction while that party can
prevent it. Any other revision will not
