Mr. Alt. C. Perry, who has been a
clerk in the U. S. Collector’s office in

to vacate the other day and make

necessary to say that friend Alf is a
democrat. Mr. Perry Chisolm filled
the vacancy.
Miss Hattie Anderson, of Atlanta,
took first premium at the Exposition
for best display of free hand crayon
portraits. Mr. \Vm. B. Henderson’s

Anderson, of this county. Mr. Hen¬
derson is a son of Judge Henderson,
Commissioner of Agriculture.
A republican has relieved Maj. J C
Flowers as storekeeper at Col. R W.
Bagby’g distillery. Of course friend
John is a democrat, and ought not to
grumble because “the rascals’’ are he -
ing turned in again. These things
will be remembered when our folks
get control of the appointments after
1892. However, the new storekeeper,
Capt. Greer, is a polished gentleman,
an ex ex-editor, and a decided im¬
provement over a vast majority of re -
publican office holders.
DEATH’S SAD ROLL.
Mrs. John J. Thompson, of Rocky
Plains district, is dead. She was tak¬
en sick on Monday and departed this
life the next morning, Tuesday. She
was one of the hest ladies in Newton

relatives and hosts of friends to mourn
her departure.
Mr. Howard Guffin, son-in-law of
Esquire Alfred Livingston, died in
Indian Territory, where he has been
engaged in business about one year,
on Sunday last. His remains were
brought to Newton county for burial
A good man, generous, kind anti true
has been called away from the busy
scenes of this life.
YVALNUT GROVE STILL DRY.’
A long and salty debate arose in the
house of representatives Friday over
a bill by Mr. Carithers, of YY'altou
county, to repeal the act prohibiting
the sale of liquor within three miles
of YY’alnut Grove Academy, YY r alton
county. The temperance committee
had reported the bill adversely. Mr.
G'arithers sent up a long list of names
of his constituents who asked for re
peal, and another petition, numerous¬
ly signed, was presented to the House,
asking that the prohibitory law be
retained. Mr. Candler, of DeKalb,
made a 1 particularly clever and tren
chant speech. , He „ showed , . that . the ,

OUR COUNTY DEBT.
Newton county owes a public debt
of over $40,000, borrows money now
at 7 per cent, per annum and assesses
* 8 P ecial tox of 200 per cent, over
and ab ” ve tbe amount of the state
tax to raise money to meet this obli
trat,0n ’ antl ?et the debt '"cretres al ,
-
m ° st ? per cent. w not
unreasonable interest, but 200 per
cen “ a P««l tax, that don’t lower the
dcbt at all > is becoming monotonous if
Dl,t bUrdenSome - If the ««ntj
, m a position where it must have
| ey higher the capitalist can and will demand
a rate of interest, which must
t* paid . You ask what is the matter?
< and W e answer; that the money bor
rowed is for from one to five years, at
7 per cent—interest paid annually,
which amounts to compound interest,
J and every the dollar borrowed and turned
over to treasurer is subject to 21
cents commission. The same dollar,
"hen paid out, is subject to another
cents as commission, making five
| cetlt8 0,1 every dollar as commission,
which when added to the 7 cents for
interest, makes 12 cents on the dollar
V* T an,,ura fur eve, T doilar lwrrowed
and paid out ’ Borr " win g a,ld P a >’
ing out is going on all the while and
every time one note is taken up and
a new note made with another party
this commission comes out. $100 bor¬
rowed for 20 years, from 20 different
persons, would l>e subject to commis¬
j sion 20 times. In that time the $100
would be lost in commission and the
county would still owe $140 simple
interest on the $100 that belonged to
another party. $240 out in 20 years,
j allll not a cent id on the debt!
Ig there a sane man on earth who
wou ld „r could do business in this
wav, when a better plan was in his
reach? You ask the remedy, and
liere it is : Bond the debt for thirty
years, and take up the bonds in five
payments, the first after 15 years and
the others every three years thereaf.
ter until all are paid. Pay the inter
est every year. Provide a sinking
fund after ten years. Bonds can be
floated at 5 per cent.—perhaps less,
Commission can only be collected one
time on the same money or bond.—
Opinions and discussions on the ques
tion solicited. Articles restricted to
not more than 15 inches. Other live,
progressive and wealthy counties have
bonded their debt, and are pleased
thereat. It is cruel to urge a higher
rate of taxation, for the people are
too hard pressed to pay any more. It
is a settled fact that the debt cannot
be paid under the present arrange¬
ment. If not bonded, what must be
done with it ? Posterity inurt shoul¬
der it, that’s all ; and “posterity” will
we wise enough to bond it. and t hat’.
ALL AGAIN !
BOLD BURGLARY”.
The residence of Mrs. II. J. Bates
was entered by a thief Thursday night
while Mrs. Bates arid iier daughter,
Mrs. \ r . C. Conyers were attending
prayer meeting at the Methodist
church. Several trunks were broken
open and sixty-five dollars in money
and a fine gold watch was stolen fr on
Mrs. Conyers. The thief entered the
house by forcing open one of the win¬
dows with an axe. It was generally
thought that the thief was well ac
quainted with the house and premises,
knew where the watch and money was,
and knew that the family were absent
at religious services. In view of this
fact Mrs Conyers telegraphed that
night to Atlanta for a detective. On
Friday night a triftling negro who
lives here, by the name of YY’ill Smith,
was picked up in Atlanta and the
watch recovered, but none of the
money could be found. Saturday
night Sheriff Anderson brought the
thief to Covington and placed him
in jail, where he remains, being una
Lie to give a $300 bond.
CUPID’S VVORK-MARRIAGES.
Mr. Sidney O. Cook, of Newton
county, was united in marriage to
Miss Hughie Hurst, of YY r alton coun¬
ty, on Thursday last. Elder YY’m.
Adams officiated. The bride is a
daughter of Elder Dock Hurst and is
a most lovely and charming young
lady. The groom is a young man of
energy, industry and unquestioned ill
tegrity. We tender congratulations
and wish for the happy couple a long
life of peaee and plenty.
