Much of our rending matter has
been crowded out this week by ad¬
vertisements. lhit wo ask our read¬
ies to kindly bear with us, as we
Mill endeavor to so arrange as to
avoid this in our next issue, and to
give them the usual amount of read¬

As spring is upon us, and as the
warm weather follows close upon
spring, would it not be well for the
I.....pie of Forsyth to remember that
the old adage “an ounce of proven
five, &e.,” is a good one, and to pro¬
ceed ol once {<> prove its. truthfulness?
< 'omparnti vely speaking,the town has
been remarkably healthy during the
winter months, for which we should
all feel truly grateful to Him who
dispenses every blessing. But the
natural causes that operate during
the winter months to make liealtl -
ful and keep pure the atmosphere
of our town is not wit h us during the
spring and summer months, and tor
Jliis reason it is important that the
citizens see now that, the entire town
he cleaned up and kept in a cleanly
and healthy condition. During the
whiter when natural agencies oon
diieive to health, come to our aid, we
are prone to permit more or less
refuse matter to accumulate in and
about the city. This same matter,
if allowed to remain over in the warm
season, tends to the production of
malaria that carries in it the seeds
ol disease. This makes it necessary
that the city should he put in good
condition by the removal of all refuse
matter likely to contain the germs of
disease. We are satisfied that our
vigilant city officials will see that the
public port ions ofthe town are looked
after in this purlieulnr.
But this is not enough. The occu¬
pants of private lots should look well
to their own premises and see to it
that they are put and kept in aeloauly
condition through the entire warm
season. To wait til! diseases develop
and then look for the causes, would
he action taken too late. Keeping
•uir town in a cleanly and healthv I
eomlition is the preventive !m dl

Wednesday last the republican
convention for the 6 th Congressional :
district was held at the court house in
this city. All tHe counties were rep- j
resented except Crawford. The con- I
vention Mas called (o order by Robt. i
Hart, of Bibb; Charlie Ranks, of Up¬
son, was made temporary, and subse¬
quently permanent chairman of the
convention, and lie used the gavel
quite well. The organization was
quietly effected, and the session was
quite harmonious. There were four
white delegates in the convention,
two of whom were Cant. W. W.
Brown, and Major II. D. Locke, of
Bibb. Capt. W. W. Brown and P. O.
Holt were elected delegates to the
national republican convention to be
held at Chicago. During the interim
between proceedings, Major Locke
was called on to address the conven¬
tion. In responding to this call, after
paying some glowing compliments to
his party, he took up the subject of
the tariff, but handled it very care
fully, standing as far as possible from
the main issue involved in it, which
Issue lie endeavored to cover with the
false veil of free trade.
The speaker held up to his hearers
the protective tariff as advocated by
the republican party as the great
ground work and foundation stone
upon which rests the security of the
laborer’s wages in the American Un¬
ion and that free trade was the demo¬
cratic club that would knock fifty
per cent, out of these wages at the
first stroke. Why well informed lead¬
ers will mistify leading and important
political issues so as to dum-found the
populace is a question, we would like
to hear honestly answered, Free
trade is not an issue. Why, then, lug
it into a discussion except to gull the
uninformed. No, free trade is not a
democratic club, but it is the club
that is being handled by the advocates
of a high protective tariff to knock
millions of unnecessary tax into the
government treasury, and four times
as many more milRim,! of tax into
the pockets of those cMsses specially
housed under the protective shelter.
Tins special feature of high protection
is carefully kept in the back-ground
of the arguments of all protectionists.
When they are clamoring before the
laboring masses for protection to
American laborers, they do not tell
them that they are at the same time
and under this guise clamoring for
four-fifths of the tariff tax to go into
the coffers of the specially protected
classes and not to needs of the & J> -
ernment. Nevertheless under all
Ukh , . positive . assertions and declara
j°n .5 without pi oof to sustain them,
stubborn facts remain the same, and
!‘ c ai t 111 Liunoei tones to the labor
mg c,asses of this country that the
pit sent unnecessary and high pro
eefive taiiu is heaping upon them a
ourtnen of taxation grievous to be

a large force was put to work on
our eemetary the first of last week and
on Thursday evening an inspeet
ing tour through the grounds show
ed that quite a change had been made
j n its appearace. We found -Marshal
Harris superintending fifteen or
twenty hands who were buisy clean
ing the rubbish from the grounds.
All the moaning pines had been
removed from that portion of the
cemetery where lie the Confederate
dead. This having been done, a sod
ding of bermuda placed over that plat
and a nice marble slab at the liead
0 f each grave would not only make it
attractive, but would show that we,
who survive them, have some con
cern for our fallen heroes,
From the other grounds, excepting
a half dozen or so of the most sightly,
all the trees have been removed, which
from our standpoint adds very much
to its appearance. While these trees
may have been land marks to many
yet ive are disinclined to the opinion
° n the contrary they marred the
looks of the tomb-stones tliat mark
the resting place of loved ones. Their
removal opens the avenue for the
planting and culture of beautiful
shrubbery which we regard as more
appropriate for the home of the dead.
Now that the city has begun the
work of beautifying the cemetery, if
the decaying fences around a number
ofthe private lota be replaced with
new ones or removed, the appearance
will still be enhanced, Of course this
part of the needed work cannot be
expected to be devolved upon the city
authorities. It is a work devolving
upon the owners of lots and a little
work upon these now and then would
evidence the fact that the friends of
the dead are still living. The shade {
trees having been removed, would it
or grounds would with it not, bermuda? be in order to It sod would the j
not only preserve the grounds but
add much to their beauty. Having
