GARFIELD PLEADS
FOR INSURGENCY
Denounces Both the Demo
Gratis and Stand-Pat
Republicans.

Cleveland, Ohio, July I2-Cheered
by an audience of progressive Republi-
cans as the Peoples candidate for gov
ernor of Ohio" James r. Garfield open
ed the fight to place Ohio in fthe insur-
gent column.
In a two hour speech in which he
avowed himself an insurgent the for
ner secretary of the interior set forth
the platform upon which the progress
siYe Republicans of this state will en-
ter the fall campaign.
Mr.. Garfield declared that the nation
stood today in a critical situation, that
confronting the country was the prob
lem whether the fight of the progress
sives was to be carried 10 a successful
issue or whether they were to surrender
and admit that government for and by
the people was failure He said in
particular:
"At the coming election we are to
choose between two great national par
ties. The Democratic party, while de-
claring against special interests, has,
when in power, allied itself with spe-
cial interests. Many of its leaders
have been and are the recognized rep
reSentativeS of special interests
How is it with the Republican par
ty? II likewise has among its leaders
some who are allied with or represent
special interests, but on the other hand
1t has progressive, aggressive leaders
who are the peoples representatives
The country owes debt of gratitude
to the insurgents to congress who
would fight against the domination of
special interests and who placed the
common good high above party advan-
tage.
@Insurgnt senator's prevented the pass
age of the Alaska bill, which in its
original form might have turned over
the untold wealth of Alaska to a ia
vored few.
THE real danger to the Republican
party" he said, comes from the reac-
tionary who Is controlled by special in
terests and from the standpatter who.
because it is the easiest way, is willing
to-return to the weak policy of laissez
faire. To follow such leaders leads to
disaster

SPEND NEXT WEEK IN
INSTRUCTION SCHOOL
AmeriCuS Officers Go to
Fort Mcpherson.

Capt. McLendon and First Lieuten-
ant Dunn, of the Amecicus Light In
fantry, will spend next week in At
lanta, attending the school of instruc-
tion for the military officers of the
state The school will be held at Fort
Mcpherson. Probably $50 officers will
be in attendance from all over the
state. Each will carry his officers
uniform and also a privates uniform.
They are to be quartered at the fort
and they will be required to put III
some hard and effective work.
1t is probable that these schools
of instruction will be held every year
hereafter at Fort Mcpherson and that
Immediate and great benefits will
result. This is part of the COVE IL
ment's program to bring the state
troops up to a higher point of eff
cheney. 1t is realized that more eff
Gent officers are necessary before a ly
great improvement can be made in the
efficiency of the troops as a whole.

LOTS BRING THE PRICE
AND MANY ARE. SOLD.
Sale Yesterday is Attended
With Interest.

Several hundred spectators, nj
bidders and home-seekers attended
yesterday morning the sale of surbur-
ban lots of the South Americus Realty
Co., conducted by Mr.. B. F. Arthu.,
and the interest manifested through
out the two hours of sale was appre-
ciated by the management.
Fifteen residence lots were disposed
vi at the morning sale while othery
We're disposed of at the sale in the
afternoon, held in front of the court
house.
Mr.. Gaffney, an experienced land
sales artist, did the selling, and to
tie best advantage.
The lots are in the college Place"
tract, in the prettiest residence sur
burb Of Americus, and in a locality
where values will enhance as the tide
Of population flows southward. They
are situated upon a higa plateau and
very desirable from the standpoint Of
location.
The crowd of buyers went out in
hacks and carriages headed by the
College Bapd, and at 1O:30 o'clock
the sale was started.
The first lot filtered was the most
desirable of the entire 78. 1t is at
the corner of Elm avenue and Gless-
ner street, 65 by 80 feet, and was
sold for 81 per front foot on Gless-
ner, or $3.50 for the lot.
The adjoining lot of like dimension
sold at $1.1O per front foot, or $71.5o
for the lot.
The crowd was carried back and
forth over the wide expanse of open
field, marked by cross streets, and
lot sold here and there. Mr.. John W.
SILVER paid $3.50 for a large lot
fronting Elm avenue, with part of
a peach orchard thereon. This waA
the highest figure paid
Three large lots next the Seaboard
railway and with sidetrack upon il
brought $l15 altogether. 1t measures
1877 by 2O9 feet.
The lot donated the Americus Hos
pital was sold to Mr.. ]. w. SILVER
for $25. Only $40 was offered for the
lot donated the baseball team and it
was withdrawn. Mrs. Meta Castellow
was the holder of the lucky ticket,
No. SCI, which drew the free lot pre-
sented by the company.
At the morning sale fifteen lots were
disposed Of at an average price of
about $51 each.

Is TEARING DOWN THE
ENTIRE OLD FRONT.
Handsome Pressed Brick
Will Succeed 1t.

The plans originally made by Mr.
Charles l.. Ansley for the renovation
of the store building at the corner OF
Forsyth and Jackson streets have been
modified and improved to the extent
that the entire front of the building
will be turn down. Workmen were
put at this job yesterday and had
made good progress by night. BY
the close of the week the entire front
will be gone and the ground cleared
and in readiness for the laying of new
brick. The new front will be made
of fine hard pressed red brick, with
large display windows and a handsome
entrance. This, will add materially
to the appearance of the entire build
ing and make the store more attract
i've than it would otherwise have been.
AS has been stated, the entire interior
will be changed and converted into a
fine business emporium.

SOLDIERS
WILL CAMP AT TIBEE.
Seems TO Have Been Final
Iy Decided.

The statement is now made that the
Americus Light Infantry will go into
camp at Fort Screven on Tybee Is
land.
1t has been the understanding of
the Americas officers that the whole
question of the camping ground
would be taken up at the school for
officers at Atlanta next week, thor
oughly discussed, and a majority vote
would decide the question as to where
the state troops would go this summe..
1t had been the idea that all of Geo.
gias soldiers were to be camped it
the same place. There seems to have
been another change in the program,
though, and the Fourth Battalion, of
which the Americus Light Infantry is
company, will go to Tybee. Tue
Columbus Enquirer-Sun has this to
say about it:
major H. Mozen, of the Fourth Bat
TALON, returned Monday from Sa-
yannah, where he went to make ar
rangements for the coming encamp-
ment of the battalion at Fort Screven.
Under the recently announced plans
OF the acknowledgement, it became
necessary to send the local compa-
MES to Chfckamauga in July, but this
arrangement did not suit the local
boys, and they requested the privil-
ege of going to the seacoast, as orig
inally intended.
Sat the recent Albany assembly the
matter was taken up with 'Adjutant
Scott, who agreed to allow the local
companies to go to Fort Screven, if
permission was secured from the war
department authorities there. To Sc
cure this permission Major Mozen
went down on Saturday and met with
success, the officers being perfectly
willing to have THE four companies
of this battalion there, providing a
mutually agreeable date can be agreed
upon.
so it is definitely settled that the
Fourth Battalion can go to Fort
Screven, although the exact date is
yet to be settled. The men and Off
GERS are pleased at the change in the
plans, as the Chickamauga trip did
not appeal to them at all"

REALTY TO SELL FOR
BIG BUNCH OF TAXES.
Fifteen Years Bill Unpaid
Thereon.

A piece of Americus real estate will
be sold by City Marshal w. G. Bar
row at June public sale here upon
which fifteen years tax is to be col
lected. This is probably the most
remarkable sale of property for taxes
ever recorded here, and it is an even
bet whether it will bring a sum more
than sufficient to pay the tax bill il
interest on deferred payments is
charged. Just how this piece of prop
erty has been overlooked for fifteen
years in the collection of taxes seems
alike remarkable, and the city will be
enriched by the recent discovery.

HOWARD HOT AFTER
YOUR JUNGLE LON.'
But the Old Fellow is Hard
to Beat.
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

Especial to T1meS-RecOrder.)
Atlanta, Ga, May 5.-Po1itics in the
Fifth congressional district in which
Fulton county is situated, continues
at fever heat. AS is known, Hon. Will
liam Schley Howard is a candidate for
congress in opposition to "Uncle
Lon" Livingston. Howard is not let
ting any grass grow under his feet :
in his campaign work. He is making
speeches, morning, noon and night. He
is scheduled to speak Friday night at
Henderson's hall. There are those
who believe that Mr. Howard will
make good race, as he expects to be
elected.
Your "Uncle Lon" however is pol
itician of great shrewdness who
knows the ins and outs of effective
campaigning. Furthermore, Col Liv-
ingston has been in office many years
and is constantly looking after the
interests of his constituents. 1t is
stated, and with truth, too, that he
knows how to get at the nations ap-
preparation in behalf of his district
Howard takes the position that Liv-
ingston has been in office long enough,
and that he should make way for a
younger man. Mr.. Howard has made
a good record as solicitor general
of the Stone Mountain circuit, and
is regarded as good lawyer.
The result of the race between the
old campaigner and the hustling
young Atlantian remains, of course,
to be seen.
