Our Railroad Again.
Mr. Editor: — l fear that our people con
sider our Railroad already built. At least,
they seem to have settled into an idle security ;
ami they are now listening for the whistle to
blow. True, Gainesville has voted for the
bonds; and these bonds are ready to be
placed : The money can be raised on them
in a few days: We have abundant means
to commence the work, and I suppose the
survey-ors will be in the field before this meets
the eyes of your readers.
We will have enough money to carry the
work on for some lime ; but Jackson county
has not filled her subscription yet. We are
more vitally interested than Gainesville.
>She has the Air-Line and will soon have a
branch to the richest mining region in the
state. Her prosperity is secured even with
out our aid. We have no facilities of this
kind ; but we have a brilliant opportunity-,
such as will not probably- be presented again
in the next fifty years. It is not impossible
that we may lose this chance, if we do not
meet our obligations promptly. I have
leceived and heard many congratulations
from some of the wisest and most far seeing
men in middle and upper Georgia, expressing
their confidence in our bright future if our
Railroad is completed. The3 T think, as I do,
that Jackson county can be made one of the
richest sections in the South. Can we pos
sibly sleep now over our interests ? Can we
possibly- rest till the enterprise is perfectly
secuaed ? Some two or three thousand dollars
are yet lacking to fill out our minimum sub
scription. We can raise not only that but
enough to equip and run our own road. This
would make it doubly valuable to our people.
Fellow citizens, let 113 have it so we can
easily secure the means to complete the road
by the fall season. Why not ? Let those
icho are holding off, come forward and sub
scribe at once. There cannot possibly be any
further excuse for delay-, success is in our
own hands. Let not a miserable selfishness
cheat us of superior facilties and possible
wealth by holding on to a few dimes in hand.
I suggest, Mr. Editor, that, so soon as the
crops are laid by, we have a large barbacue
in this place, and that all the people be in
vited to participate with us ; and thus, at cue
stroke, we may secure the means to place
this enterprise far ab.ive any contingency.
Let us hear from the Directors ; and if all
the stock is not taken immediately, let them
appoint committees to carry this plan into
operation next month. We must have the
Railroad ; we would be worse than imbeciles
to lose this opportunity, which will increase
our property by thousands and even millions.
Let all arouse themselves and go to work.
J. W. Glenn.
Still Organized.
Editor Forest News:—Dear sir, in your
issue ot 11th inst. I find the following state
ment. The Gainesville Southron otlsets Jim
Turnbull’s desertion of Speer, by claiming
to have made a convert of Mr. Robt. White
of tills county. In the Southron of the Bth
inst. appears an article headed “ Uncle Boh
White an independent.” I did not at first
think of paying any attention to either of
these articles but have since concluded to
take some notice. The short article making
a cah for a meeting of tiie Democratic party
of Jackson county written by me and pub
lished in your paper, was not intended as
you know to bring my name before the peo
ple, it was signed “ Democrat' 5 my own name
given for your own use in accordance with
journalistic requirements. An enquiry had
been made in a previous issue of tiie News
for the member of the Executive Committee
for this county, I ventured to give as 1 be
lieved the necessary information, at the same
time making the call which has afforded an
opportunity to tiie editor of the Gainesville
Southron to publish an article, which after
all is more remarkable lor its Bobbery and
misrepresentation than any other quality.
Perhaps Mr. Lawshe felt grieved that his
name is mentioned as one opposed to con
ventions of the Democratic party-, surely of
this he ought not to complain* the words
menagerie, ring, trickster &c. were not long
since familiar in his vocabulary and may, for
ought I know, be yet, there may have been a
change recently, and I am admonished 1 >3*
the gentlemans graceful acceptance of a po
sition as delegate to the recent convention
at Atlanta that such is probably the case, if
this be truly so I can freely say come on Peter
we will receive your back into the fold only
requiring that for a time 3-011 occupy a back
seat as a means of preventing future wan
derings. Five times in your short article
you dub me 3-011 r Uncle Bob but how
the kinship comes in, I am at a loss to dis
cover as one was born in Minesota and the
other in Ireland I think it would puzzle a
Scotch highlander deeply versed in genealog
ical love to establish the connection, the in
creasing belief 111 the brotherhood of man
any afford the solution.
But laying aside all bandiage ; let me say
to you, and all others, 3?our Uncle Bob will
never join any other political party than the
Democratic, so long as it maintains its exis
tence, the first vote I cast was for the Dem
ocracy, my last which increasing years ad
monishes me is not far off, will be of the
same character.
At the proper time no doubt a call for a
convention of tiie Democracy of the 9th dist.
will bemacieand asuitablccandidatc present
ed for election there is plenty of good material
for that purpose, most prominent at this time
so far as I can learn are Hall’s little giant, A.
D. Candler, Col. Butler of Morgan, Col.
Bell of Forsyth, either of the two first would
it is believed make a good member, the last
lias already' proved his fitness. I sincerely
believe that the best interest of the Democ
racy, and when I say the Democracy I mean
the people generally', would be advanced by
tho retirement of our present representative
Mr. Speer and I know this belief does not
grow out of a feeling of unkindness towards
him, on the contrary in common with
nearly every- one, I like him and do not seek
for defects in his course in Congress. He
fought the Democratic party, consequently I
fight him and if no candidate is presented
by a Democratic convention for acceptence
by the people I will my-seif become a candi
date making Democratic usages to the two
thirds rule the only- issue.
Respectfully Robt. White.
Prejudice Kills-
T> Eleven years our daughter suffered on a
bed of misery under the care of several of the
best (and some of the worst) physicians, who
gave her disease various names but no relief,
and now she is restored to us in good health
by as simple a remedy as Hop Bitters, that we
had poohed at for two years, before using it.
We earnestly hope and pray that no one else
will let their sick suffer as we did, on ac
count of prejudice againts so good a medicine
as Hop Bitters.”—The Parents.
tdFMr. J. 11. Chapman has been very sick

Death of Mr- Jackson Bell.
Death has again’ invaded our community?,
last week its victim was are innocent prat
tling babe, now it is the aged sire ripe for
the harvest. For Several days past our fel
low citizen Mr. Jackson Bell has been lin
gering upon a bed of sickness with but little
hope of his recovery owing to his age and
physical infermities, so that the most of us
were not surprised last Wednesday- morning
to hear of his death, the night before from
an attack of typhoid pneumonia. Mr. Bell
was one of our oldest and best known citi
zens, having merchandized at this place for
a number of years, before the war. He
leaves a large family- of sons and daughters,
to whom we extend our sympathy in this
their hour of bereavement.
Tribute of Respect.
Again have we stood with silent awe in the
chill presence of the Angel of Death. Our hearts,
still aching with unhealed wounds, are throbbing
again with sorrow for the loss of another ; one
whom we all honored, repected and loved,
diaries 11. Campbell, the sincere friend, the faith
ful student, the conscientious Sabbath School
teacher is no more.
A little while ago, he came to us. a stranger,
from Harris county Georgia ; quietly took his
place among the students of Martin Institute, and
in a few short months had won his way- to the
esteem of all, by his integrity, his modest, unas
suming manners ; and, above*all, by his pure and
blameless Christian life.
Few men had a higher sense of honor than he.
and none ever raised a higher standard of noble
manhood, or pursued with more unflinching
purpose the true and the right.
We had hoped that he would gather rich har
vests in the broad fields of the future; that the
influences of his pure life and lofty- ambition
would extend through many years of usefulness,
but alas! “he is notyet we reverently bow
in submission to the will of the Father, as we
say “ lie is not, for God took him.” Ilis star is
set, but not extinguished ; it has only passed from
mortal sight to glow with undimmed beauty in
the world beyond; and the last gleam of its
mellow radiance, as it sunk in a cloudless sky,
will, we trust, illumine a path leading others to a
better life.
Then in commemoration of his many virtues
and as a token of respect to departed worth ; be
it resolved : That in the death of Charles H.
Campbell, society has lost a most promising and
valued member; the Sabbath School, an efficient
and faithful teacher, and religion, a youthful, but
bright exemplar.
Resolved : That we tender our profound sym
pathies to the bereaved family and friends.
Resolved : That, the Forest News be re
quested to publish these resolutions, and that a
copy be sent to his family, and, also one be
placed in the records of the Sabbath School.

Far away from sin and sorrow,
A home to some is given ;
Where joys pure forever follow,
That blissiul home is heaven.
The heart no longer feels a sigh,
The soul can no sadness know ;

In the home where Christians go’.
There Pilgrims find a resting place.
There orphans may find a home ;
And every weary one of earth,
The Master invites to •* come.”

Hortheast-Georgia’s Choice-
Mr. E ditor :—I would beg to suggest a3
a suitable person for Governor, Col. Samuel
P. Thurmond. lie needs no introduction to
the people of Northeast Georgia. For thirteen
years previous to the late war, with ability
and general satisfaction, he filled the office
of Solicitor General of the Western circuit.
Since tiie close of the war he has devoted
himself exclusively to the practice of his
profession (the law) and by- close applica
tion, untiring energy and an unceasing
devotion to the interest of his clients, he has
made the practice of the lav/ a success ; while
many, with perhaps more brilliancy, and by
far greater educational advantages, have
failed. Col. Thurmond is in the truest sense
of the term a self made man. Starting out in
life as a poor boy he read law at the handle
of the bellows, being a mere striker in a
blacksmith shop. Dependent in the outset
upon his own exertions with an indomitable
will he overcame obstacles such as are sur
mounted only by true merit, and to-day
worthily stands at the head of the bar of
Northeast Georgia. In no sense of the term
is he an office seeker. If elected bis adminis
tration might not prove brilliant but it would
surely prove honest, practical, firm, and
beneficial to the State. The finances of the
State would not be likely to suffer in the hands
of a man accustomed to economy, a stranger
to show and display, habituated to his office,
and ever found at the post of duty. With
vigilance would he watch and guard the finan
ces of the State and to his utmost power protect
her every interest. Citizen.
