The name of the 4 State" "was adopted for the new daily. The company have plenty or money, and t*ill in all probability issue a firstclass newspaper. Mr. Gonzales, the managing editor, 13 a gentleman, of long experience in jauruaJUii) and under hi>: management we feel :>'ire lhat the editorial columns will be cci? . ^ . ^u.ted with ability. It.it be true that there is a wholesale intimidation of the negro vote in the South and that they are prevented from voting at the point of bayonets, pistols, rjlfles and bowie-knives, then the President ought to send out troops and treat the South as a conquered country. Senator Hoar in presenting th$ reasons why his Federal election bill .should become a law unguardedly lets, slip tlic real truth. It is because such action will have the semblance of a djesire to, [protect the negro in the South and,thvis it will retain the negro at the. North in the Republican party. I It will not be long before the time r will be here for making preparation# \ for the next crop, and now is the opportnnc tjire for organizing prize J <?Ju,b?. The best and strongest argument that can be presented in favor of foiming these clubs is what was accomplished by the White Oik and Watercc f Clubs last year. We know that Secre ?rtr R.-ioo Af Whitft Oak. and Secre rtpry Wylie, of Wateree, will take pleasure in answering any correspoi cjence on the subject, and give infej mation concerning the plan of organ v jzation, otc. It is hoped that by Jan uary, 1892, every section in the count V will have a prize club. irOiiE men are born croakera and R grumblers, and spend the greater part of their time abusing ^verythiijg. but themselves. They hurl, their scurrilous vimperations against their neighbors, i hey are dissatisfied with every SB body and everything about them, they ?jp^-cok4 water on every movement Wt begim>1fcJr&rc9lse tbe prosperity oi [ the country, failure in life at the door oi some oouj else, they are continually harping ot the poverty of th.e country, they tall qonstantly of the general worthlessyess of, the county and ai:e ever threat cuing to leave. Xow the best thine I *ajch men $an do, is. to vote for tin A railroads so that they . will have in created facilities for getting out of th< Sggig&k country. It would be the best thin? y?5S8gj for them and the best thing tor th< p county. Let everybody else vrho ii fuller of hope and less selfish also vote for the railroads, and lets get rid o: the croakers. It requires the force of circumstani ces !? m^ke an agricultural people abandon the lavishing system of plantlag only one crop and owning large plantations, a system which experience has shown to be ruinous and suicidal I Jest after the war when cottoi: brought thirty and forty cents a pound farmer? were allured into the idea oi I making fabulous fortunes ou: of the staple and held tenaciously to the old system of large land estates. Thus the method of farmiug incident tc slavery survived. Within a few year* cotto? fell down to ten cents and lower, and farming on small tracts, though not general over the country, has followed to gome extent. But in the absence of circumstances wholly outside of farming, nine times out ol leu tbe man who tries the &raan larro and raises other crops besides cotton makes money and will invariably buy more land. The tendencr is that after abandoning tbe old system and adopting the new, a return i? made to the days of the large plantations. In apite of the admonition of experience this will be done. It seems that it is incorporated in the nature of our ra Southern people. What we need ft then is a change of environment that kwill change this system. Countries intersected by railroads are increased I / in population, more divrrsHv of industry* are found in them, and lands be come more valuable and are cultivated ] more intelligently. Give us railroads | and we bhall hare one ot the <:reat i fore s to force us into a system ot small farms and greater diversity of industry. Hill Elected. ! The election of Governor 115:1, ot !

(Athens Banner.) | DEKALB County, GA. , December 12. ?Genera! Gordon is now a full fcfidged A'iianceman, and will hereafter be made to toe the mark, aud adikre?s j Livingston, Ma-;une, and Harry Si-own i as 'brother.' The initiation or this j distinguished gentleman went ihrongh ! without a jostle, and was witnessed by i a l.sr^c and cn'.husiastic audience ot" Aliiancemeu. At the risk o? being shot for <-xpo*ing the secrets of our order, I will give tlje Banner a full report of the impressive ceremony that snatched General Gordon from the clutches of 1 the noliticians at;u made him an hum [ ble disciple of the plow. | The candidate was escorted into ihe ! ante room of the^Alliancemeu by a J bedr guard of farmers. He mani! fcslecl *otne nervousness when his j conductors demanded that he partially . disrobe and submit to the ordeal of j being curried off with a corn cob and j rubbed down with a bundle of fodder; I the reason for this phantom agriculj tural bath oeing that it was necessary J to cleanse his person from the contaminating (fleets <*?f too close a contact i rrifK Atlanta n, tlif i# >'j n? .TefTr*rSflliLaU I .. .vw -.v.-... democrats, independents and other andean elements, and ih:v: he might enter the realms ot agiictiiiural bliss.. He wa? then arrayed in a pair of copperas pants, upheld by one suspender, and a j hickory shirt, wool iiai and brogan j shoes. The Alliance (hi? ??ide exj plained) was no refpectoir of persons i and every member must be on an eojual ! footing.. | Three raps were given on the lodgej room door, and a sepulchral voice from within demanded:; i "Who come6 there?" I A. [JSJUt ucimciii nau t-? m i darkness, and asks that th'j light of I the Alliance be turned upon him," I was the ireply. : u'-l3 the candidate a tuler of the soil?' J was the nexl querry from witniu. , "He sa>s he has always been the ! best friend the farmer of Georgia ever i had," was the evasive response. | "See il there arc any corns in his ' hand or cuckle-burrs iu his hair," was the command. "The seeker of light j>ayg he is only ; a farmer by proxy, and the corns are . | in (he hands of the men who wcrk his i land," was the response. J^_uDoes the candidate ask admittance Tl/iT^mS^cder on his own volition. j and is he prepared to pass through the ordeal of initiation?" : "He does and he is," was the reply from without. 4'Let the candidate then remain in r j darkness until his eyes are prepared to ' i receive the great light that the Alliance ' i will turn upon him and he can be ad ! milled into our sacred precincts," was i J the next order. r; The eyes of the applicant for Alli^ i aice knowledge were bandaged with ; | a second-handed guano sack, the door 5 j of the lodge room thrown open, and ; I Georgia's er-governor and United f! States Senator, for the first time in his I life, found himself in the inner sancj tnarv of the farmers' lair. He was ! marched three times around the room, j while the members welcomed him ;; with ? . I "While the lamp holds out to burn " j The vilest sinner may return." [ j With a "gee" and "haw" the candi' j date was escorted to the' Grand Tv I coon, who used as ckair of state the i | small end of a hale of cotton. [ ' ' Our would-be brether, yaur humi!. I iating entry into this room teaches you : a usetul lesson. A few -minutes ago : j you came to us reeking with the order I of the politician, and arrayed in the j j paraphernalia ol a great man. You (I were stripped of your fine apparels, i ' | which meaus that you must also leave II behind you in your luture communi i i cations witn iarraers your woriuiy uigr j nity, or the Alliance will strip you of j year honors as easily as it did of your ' j tailor made garments. All men (ex1; cept the nigger) are free and equal. ; "Tne odious bandage that obscured ' | your vision is a. necessary attachment | j to the farm; and while i? teaches an Allianceman that he must not expect! 1 his pathway through life to be spriu- j ; kled with the otter of roses, will be a : ! special reminder to you of the oflen.! sive manner that you >poke of our ! leaders and friends during your recent I j campaign.

The II. and if. hister was squatting j between the handles of x. plow-stock, i i Without further ado the candidate had lan iron hook fastened ia the seat of i L \ - J his pants, te which a rope was attached and thrown over a team absve. With a steady pull by two sinewy Alliancemen, the distinguished gentleman was cnnn duTicriijio- in the air. witk hands wvv" o ? ? / ana feet vainly clutching at the floor. "Now hold the candidate in that position. where he can better appreciate the beautiful lessons inculcated by the Alliance/' remarked the G. and M. II. "It is needless for the partially initiated brother to longer clutch at the floor. He has already had some experience at resigning, and the rriscut thing he can do is to put into practice that virtue and be resigned to the position Tve have placed him in, and not postpone this matter until he gststo Washington again." "That hook," the High Ulster explained, illustrates the lirm hold the Farmers' Alliance has on mankind. Your struggles in the air shows the folly of a candidate trying to regain his equilibrium while in the mighty grasp of our Order. It also illustrates our political power to elevate 01* lower a man at will. Your futile clutches in the air is to show the folly of a candidate trying to reach for office through . politicians. The candidate can now be released, and carried before the Supreme Spanker for further enlight eminent: and while lie is making the circuit of the room the brothers will sing, "On Greenland's Icy Mountains,1" j as 1 notice that the candidate is Jbegin- j ning to shiver in the cold air of the room. The Supreme Spanker sat upon a : bale of hay. He ordered the Jbandage removed from the candidate's eyes, remarking that he had perhaps progressed far enough to stand the light of the Alliance; and, besides, he was to go through another ordeal that re quired all of a man's faculties to ey- ; dure. ! The seeker after light vras then led up to a barrel, and in a twinkling! stretched over it. " ! "Hiring forth theI .ue" Supreme Spanker, and convince the new brother that it is not a rotton one. but. made of good, sound timber. Let the High Executioner do his duty like a good and true Alliance man, while we will all sing: "Once I was bliml, but now I see."' Forty times that plank rose in the air and came down with a mighty thump, before the writhing victim was released and carried before the Supreme Spanker again, to have the lesson lie had just received explained. "You have passed through one of ll? ?iiul prlifrit!?" fliail UIC UJVM urauiuin tu?v% r tersin the Alliance mode of initiation. Yon hare publicly asserted that we had only one plank in our platform, and that a rotten one. 1 feel assured that you are now prepared to correct this statement, and assert that our sub-treasury plank is one of the soundest you have ever felt. We hare several other planks, as we can prove fo your entire satisfaction, if so desired. ! Oh! yon say you aie satisfied 1 Well. J be careful in the future how yon speak slurrinjly of something you know nothing about. Now carry the candidate, Brother Conductor for other useful lessons, and while he is on the move let the members sing. I "This is the wav I loiue have ought.'" j The great drencher had on a table before him three black feathers and a ! goblet half tilled with what appeared I to be old Bourbon. "After his long fatiguing pilgrimage our brother is doubtless in need of rest and refreshments. Place a chair that lie mar be seated/' This was done, but by seme s?eightof-hand the candidate made a miss, and landed on the floor. "My unfortunate brother, von have now learned the uncertainty of politi cal campaigns. Jusl. as a man tninKs lie has fonnd a nice, comfortable seat, the Alliance slips it from beneaih him, and painful indeed is his disappointment. I spoke just now ot refreshments, and had prepared a nice mess of crow for you; but I now discover , in your recent anxiety to explain mat famous speech yon made before the Alliance convention, that you hare already eaten all of the sub-treasury crow, except a few tail feathers. But 'here is a glass of Jeflersonian dtmocracy, according to the Epistle of the Romans, that you were so partial to a short time since. This is the last of the cask and please swallow the same. Well, if you hesitate, I will have to order the grand executioner, to show 'you another one of the planks in our "platform. Ah, you find the liquid is enceaseu in glass, so mat h win nut wet vonr parched lips. That, my brother, is modern Jeffersonian democracy. It is very nice to look upon, but, like Dead Sea fruit, tasteless. This shows you that to depend on other classes than the Alliance and the organized democracy for office and honors is to partake- of a phantom political lunch.
