The End Came Saturday Night
at 1905 al HIS Winter Home
Near Miami, Fla
A B,i I Sketch of
His Career.
nes-DemOcrat.

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 9.-Lieut.
Gen. John Brown Gordon died at
his winter home near Miami,
Fla, at 1905 tonight. His fatal
illness, which overlook him last
Wednesday, was congestion of
the stomach and liver, following
an acute attack of indigestion, to
which he was subject.
Gen. Gordon had been uncOnsci-
ousnearly all day. The beginning
of the end occurred this after
noon, serious complications set
ting in, and by night his physi-
clans had abandoned all hope, as
his kidneys refused to secrete
and the symptoms OF uraemlc
poisoning we're very decided. His
death was quiet. He fell peace
fully to sleep and all was over.
Gen. Gordon became i'll Wednes-
day afternoon with acute lndl-
gestiun. He had suffered from
the same trouble in Mississippi
many months ago. AT ii O'Clock
Thursday morning a consultation
of doctors was held, and 1t was
found that he was critically Ill.
His son, Major Hugh Gordon,
who resides at Biscayne, was
with him. A Telegram was sent
to his daughter, Mrs. Burton
Smith, Of Atlanta, calling her to
his bedside. She Was with him
when he died. Gen Gordon grew
steadily worse until to-day, when
he was unconscious most Ut the
time.
Ge n. Gordon was born in Up
son county, Ga July 8. 1882, of
Scotch ancestry, which had
prominent part in the Revolution
airy War. Young Gordon gradu-
ated from the Georgia State Uni
versity in 1852, and few months
later was admitted to the pract-
ice of law. Early in 1861 he en-
listed in the volunteer COnfeder-
ate service and was elected
captain of his company. He rose
rapidly by promotion to be lieu
tenant colonel of the Sixth Ala
bama Infantryin December 1851.
He participated in the struggle

IN the Virginia Peninsula, had
part in the battle at MalvernH Hill,
and was commissioned brigadier
General in November, 1892. At
the battle of Sharpsburg he held
a portion of the line on the left
wing of the army and was
wounded five times, and during
the war was wounded eight times
in all. He was in command Of
troops at Charlottesville and in
the Pennsylvania cOmpaign,
taking part in the battle of
Gettysburg as commander of a
division. In the battles of the
wilderness he bore so cOnspicu-
Gus a part with his command as
to become known through his
brilliant achievement as "The
Man of the Twelfth of May" At
this time, May, 1864, he was
promoted to be Major General,
and took part in the important
battle which marked the closing
scenes of the civil war. His
bearing was characterized by a
holiness and a dash which made
him the idol of his soldiers. In
official report of Gen. D. H.
Hill, Gen. Gordon was character
lied as The Chevalier Bayard of
the COnfederacy.
When hOstilities were ended
he called his men about him and
advised them to bear the trial of
defeat, to 60 home in peace, obey
the laws and rebuild the wasted
country.
He has taken prominent part
in the council of his party since
1866. He was a candidate for
Governor IF Georgia in 1868 and
in 1873. and in 1879 was elected
to the United States Senate. Re-
signing that position in 1880, he
participated actively in building
the Georgia Pacific Railroad. In
1886 and 1888 he was elected
Governor of Georgia. and in 1890
entered again the United States
Senate for the full term.
Since his retirement from
political activity he has devoted
most of his time to lecturing,
presenting to the North, as well
as the South, his famous lecture
upon "The Last Days of the Con-
federacy."
Since the organization of the
United Confederate Veterans he
has held the position of it's COM
mander in chief, and his frequent
reflections to that position have
testified to the warmth of affec-
ton in which he has been held in
the South.

Thine shall unfold what plated
cunning hides" A memorable date
is about to give an event in Louisiana
politics. The cry of the masses for
reform in our state government has
stirred the political atmosphere to
such a pitch that the ''Old time" poll
ticians are wrought up and have in
some parts of our State almost left
discussions of issues and are jabber-
ing at personalities as means to at
tain victory in Office. "A dark cloud
has shaded the faces of the profess
siOnal bosses and speculative pOliti-
clans and caused them to yield to
some of the demands of the people for
policy's sake to land in Office.
Men of the State who locked them
selves up in caucus rooms in New
Orleans at the very outset OF the cam
paign consulting as to whom the
United States SehatOrsnip should be
given, as to whom the GOvernOrship
should be given, as to whom this
Office or that Office should be given.
and trying to plan a campaign in a
dark abyss so the paOple could not
question them, are now to their great
est fear making some provisional
Yields to the great current. Shall the
masses of the people support men who
remained perched on the renee, waiting
until they felt the aerial wave ema-
mating from the sentiment Of the
masses, and who are now kneeling to
the people and begging for their sup
port to get lucrative offices and
highest honOrs within the gilt Of the
state! Looking at the present situa-
ton, we see the Blanchard faction
and It's followers in that very category.
Any ticket that yields for policy TO
get in Office, especially at the end OF
It's campaign is dangerous to the
Interests of the masses. Sincerity Of
purpose in management OF govern
mental affairs lies at the starr in open,
declared principles to the end OF a
campaign. In the event of the Blan-
chard ticket getting into power the
head will let the boss at discretion
serve themselves, rule and good
government, afterwards.
The peoples legitimate demands have
so puzzled the Blanchard faction that
it has declared without prOvisO, the
curtailment of Offices and the decrease
of the s., 1000, 900 extravaganza to run
the government.
Had Gen. Jastremski not declared
the extravaganza in the administra-
ton Of the State government the
Blanchard faction would have re-
NAMED mum on that issue, while on
the other hand would have boosted on
the great progress, great wealth and
industry which the masses of the
people only can boast of.
