THE ONE-EYED PLOWBOY.
Than Allen D. Candler there is no
better man in Georgia. He is a war
vet erar, a popular man, a true and
tried statesman. He is a politician,
man of affairs, and typical Georgian.
Allen Candler was a school teacher
after the war. He knows books and
he knows men. 1 have seen him in
Augusta, when be was trying to float
the bonds of his Gainesville narrow
gauge railroad, leave the bank and
steal away to the bookstand. There
he would take down a copy of Long
fellow’s poems and remain the whole
afternoon behind the counter lost in
the jangles of “Evangeline.” Few
people know his real accomplish
ments. And yet he had not been in
congress many years before be was
made chairman of the committee on
education by Speaker Carlisle. Allen
1). Candler is a man of the people,
the plain people. He is small, quick
witted, plain spoken. He is a square
man without any frills. He dosen’t
look like a governor and yet he would
fill the chair to perfection. When
the Democrats of the Ninth district
wanted a man to defeat the eloquent
Speer they went to Gainesville and
found Allen Cnndler on a ladder
shingling his house. He came down
with his hammer and tools and ac
cepted the nomination for congress.
He had already been state senator
for Hall, Banks, and Jackson and had
represented his own county in the
legislature. He had been a moving
spirit in building the Gainesville,
Jefferson, and Southern railway.
The Democrats of the district
had asked Judge Erwin of Ath
ens to accept the nomination.
The judge did not think Speer could
be beaten. But Allen Candler put
up his handsaw and nails and con
sented to give the young independent
one trial. Congressman Speer had a
lot of fun out of the canvass. He
ridiculed his Democratic opponent.
He compared him to “Jason,” a half
witted boy, in the mountains, who
was forced by his . family to do the
chores of the household. One day a
new weed was found and the brothers
wondered if it were poisonous. They
were afraid to test it, but finally made
a stew of it and gave it to Jason to
eat. Speer’s idea was that the Dem
ocrats had forced the nomination up
on “the one-eyed plow boy of Pigeon
Roost” because the others would not
have it. But after a long and bitter
canvass Allen Candler won and re
mained eight years in congress.
He finally declined re-election and
was succeeded by Mr. Winn, who
went over to the alliance and was
defeated by Carter Tate. Allen
Candler stayed out of politics until
1894 when, upon the death of Gen
eral Phil Cook, he was nominated for
secretary of state. Everybody re
members the race between Bill Clif
ton and Allen Candler for this posi
tion, when the delegates “cheered for
Clifton and voted for Candler,”
Colonel Candler will not be an easy
man to run out of this campaign.
He is a good fighter bimself. He
went to the army with the Banks
County Guards. He isn’t a dodger
or a quitter. He will be nominated
and then he will have Tom Watson
“on his hands,” just as he had Emory
Speer to confront in 1882. This will
be a battle royal but the Democratic
party will have a good lightwood knot
campaign in Allen Candler. He
comes from the wellknown Candler
family m Georgia. They are all as
smart as whips from Warren Candler
down. Milton Candler, his cousin,
represented the Atlanta district in
congress several terms. Allen Can
dler is a graduate of Mercer univer
sity and a Baptist. Candler is all
right. The man who follows him in
this race must have a fleet steed in
Georgia. Savannah Press.
The Methodist church south will
get that $288,000 as full compensa
tion for the property of the book
concern destroyed at Nashville dur
ing the war. There wasn’t a bloody
shirt waved nor were the words
“rebel,” “sedition,” or “traitor”
heard once in the entire discussion of
the merits of the bill. It has been
21 years before the senate.
Thomas Brackett Reed put the
argument against the admission of
Mew Mexico, Arizona, and Okla
homa in a nutshell when he said :
“The free coinage of silver states and
senators have gone far enough.”
The house committee did exactly
right when it voted, without discus
sion, to exclude these immature com
munities from the Union.
A New York court decided one
day last week that a woman who
spanked another publicly on the
street for flirting with her husband
was not legally amendable. It was
an oldfashioned spanking, too, and
administered by an elderly lady to a
pretty miss in the oldfashioned,
motherly way so keenly remembered
by many.
THAT J’INT DEBATE.
! According to Mr. Thompson’s or
j gan, the Gainesville Eagle, Mr. Tate
threw a bomb into the camps by ac
cepting the challenge of Mr. Thomp
son for “a series of joint debates,”
and the Eagle yet hopes that Mr.
Tate will not meet Mr. Thompson.
Our neighbor, however, may as well
igo to work grooming its candidate
I for the “j’intdis.,” for Mr. Tate will
surely meet Mr. Thompson, and the
meeting will be creditable, too. The
committeemen named by Mr. Thomp
son and Mr. Tate will shortly meet
and fix the dates and places for the
joint discussion and at the appointed
time and place the fun will begin.
Please be present, Brother Cbaig.
—Canton Advance.
The Advance is nothing if not
absurd. A “bomb in the camp,” in
deed I We know of nothing that
could happen in the future that we
had rather would happen than that
Thompson and Tate should lock
horns on the hustings. We know
nothing would delight Col. Thomp
son more. But like wishing for a
great many other things, wishing
will be as far as the thing will ever
get.
If Brother Perry were a little
more perpendicular from the chin to
the eyebrows he would understand
this matter better. He would know
that there will be no joint discussion.
He would know that Mr. Tate does
not- intend and never did intend to
meet Mr. Thompson before the peo
ple. It is all a bluff. He had
already studied out the hole to get
out of it.
There will be no j’intdis., you bet.

COUNTY.
In announcing for the office of
Clerk of Superior Court I desire to
say that I have no apologies to make
for my position in politics, nor have
I any claim upon the people or the
Democratic party. I have n erely
done what I believed to be my duty
as a citizen. If selected by the peo
ple as the party nominee at the
primary election. I shall not glory
in the defeat of any democrat, but
will try to merit the confidence of
the people who cast their ballots for
me and uphold my political convic
tions to the best of my ability.
I do not mean to be dictatorial as to
the manner of selecting nominees for
the different officers but unless a
primary is held all over the county
and in which every Democrat can
express his choice, I shall withdraw
from the contest. Ido not mean by
this that I will run independently,
for I will not, but I shall not be a
party to any “snap-shot” convention
or concocted plans in arrangement.
1 am not presumtuous enough to
ask the people to elect me
to an office that I do not be
lieve I can fill, and if elected I
shall do my whole duty as far as I
know, and shall be vigilant in look
ing after the interest of the people
individually and collectively and
shall press my duties and not allow
my duties to press me.
I will canvass the county in suffi
cient time before the primary is held
to give the people an opportunity to
decide whether they wish to sup
port me or not. Hoping the Demo
cratic party may be successful in all
honest efforts, I am,
Very respecfully,
Thomas M. Bell.
PAYING OFF THE MORTGAGES.
The “bleeding Kansas” of Horace
Greeley’s day has become a thing of
the past. Even a few years ago she
was plastered with mortgages—a bye
word of debt. But “old things have
passed away, lo! all things are new.
Kansas is paying off her mortgages
and has money to lend or bum.
The same condition is true of many
of the Western states. A writer in
Harper’s Weekly says that in the
state of Nebraska and in the other
states of the middle West, the ioan
business, as it was formerly con
ducted, is over. Hundreds of thou
sands of dollars of Eastern money
have been sent back since last fall
because there was no market for it.
Only recently a bank official in cen
tral New York received letters of in
quiry asking as to the value of cer
tain investments. Some persons in
Kansas had money to lend in the East.
It is a fact beyond dispute that West
tern mortgages are being paid off far
in advance of maturity. One agent
of a loan company said that from the
West alone returns on unmatured
loans were coming in at one office at
the rate of $50,000 a week faster than
he could put out the money again.
He said he was simply sending back
all the Eastern money that was com
ing to him. He could not find a
market even for his Western money.
This is a hopeful sign of the times.
The broad-minded patriot rejoices in
the prosperity of the country, no mat
ter under what circumstances it may
come and the facts presented above
speak too eloquently to admit of any
controversy.
WORKING THE STRINGS.
We saw a telegram from Con
gressman Tate last week directed to
a prominent man in Toccoa tell
ing of the passage the day before in
the House of a bill which would pay
the church of which he was a mem
ber a large sum of money, and at the
same time make this gentleman (a
voter) feel kindly toward candidates
and Tate particularly. We also
noticed that the telegram was dead
headed. Tate is “on to the ropes”
and he is working them.—Toccoa
Record.
THE COTTON SITUATION.
Mr. Alfred B. Shepperson, in
the current number of Textile
America, presents some of the hope
ful features of the cotton situation.
He reasons out that the planting of a
small crop this year will send up the
price of cotton in the spring very
materially, and that it is possible that
the year 'may close on remunerative
prices, despite the fact that it is
generally conceded this will be a
record breaking crop. Mr. Shepper
son’s own estimate is about 10,430,-
000 bales. He calls attention to the
fact, however, that though a million
and a half bales more of American
cotton had come into sight at the
close of January than at the cor
responding date in 1897, there were
only 453,000 bales of American cot
ton in the world’s visible supply,
more than the year before, showing
how large a proportion of the in
creased receipts had been consumed
by spinners.
Absalom.
We Lave the best school at Pleasant
Hill that this community has had for a
number of years. Prof. L. N. Shahan,
as teacher, has done what he could to
make it such, and its present prosperous
condition is largely due to his untiring
efforts.
W. A. Cox left Saturday for Milton
county where he will make a crop.
Mrs. Alice Wingo gave a quilting party
last Saturday afternoon which was well
attended.
Herbert Davenport and wife of Green
ville, S. C., are visiting Capt. W. S. Cox
and family.
Much interest is manifested in ♦’he
Pleasant Hill Sunday school, and the
singing is unusually good.
The young people of the neighborhood
met at the home of W. D. Wilson Friday
evening. They had a delightful time
socially, and, the hostess realizing that
the nearest way to the hearts of her
guests was down their throats, furnished
them with an elegant supper.
Jim Williams’ little daughter, who
has been quite ill for some time, is now
convalescent.
T. B. and C. H. Smith are storing up
wood for summer use—good idea.
Hoschton.
Mrs. Fields spent last Friday night in
Gainesville.
Miss Candler is not quite able to be in
school yet on account of the severe
wound she received a few weeks ago.
Rev. J. P. Irwin preached two very in
teresting sermons here last Sunday,
which were appreciated very much by a
large congregation.
Miss Sopha Barr, from near Mulberry,
was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. R. A.
Hosch last week.
I. F. Duncan was in town last Monday.
George Wood has been teaching a
singing class in Whitehall for the last
few days.
J. R. Hosch has been visiting his
brother, Wm. Hosch, in Gainesville this
week.
W. B. McCants went to the city of At
lanta last Sunday.
Bob Carithers of Winder was visiting
Mrs. W. P. Delaperriere last Friday, who
has been very ill.
Many hearts were made sad last
Wednesday, Feb. 2, when we heard
about the death of Mrs. Lizzie Smith.
She was a woman who always looked on
the blight side of life, and always spoke
a kind word to everybody, and had a
smile for all.
In Their New Home.
W. H. Craig has completed his new
house on Park street, and moved into it
last Thursday. In his absence we take
the liberty of saying that it is a very de
sirable home, built according to Mr.
Craig's own taste, neatly finished, with
verandas on the east and west sides of
the house and stone steps in front.
The rooms and various apartments are
well and conveniently arranged. Every
thihg about the house is suggestive of
comfort in summer or winter. It is
built on an eminence fronting original
forests on the east and from the west
veranda one gets the most enchanting
views of the mountains to be had from
any point in or near the city.
Shot While Hunting:.
Captain J. C. Carter, chief of police of
Dallas, Texas, and one of the best known
and most efficient officers in the South,
died last Saturday night from a gunshot
Tound in the calf of his leg, received
while hunting with a party of friends on
Friday in that State. Captain Carter
was shot by Rev. George W. Truett, pas
tor of the First Baptist church of Dallas,
whose gun was accidentally discharged.
Captain Carter was born and reared in
Social Circle, and has maty relatives in
this section.
Rev. Mr. Truett is also well and favora
bly known to our people. It was he who
founded Hiawassee High School, which
is the pride of the mountain counties.
The Atkinson Ring.
Governor Atkinson has been presented
by R. K. Reaves with a ring made of
White county gold, with a large Rabun
county garnet as the setting, which is
being much discussed by the State pa
pers, as the gold and the garnet were
taken from the mines of Northeast
Georgia.
To the people who have not visited
this section we will say that there are
hundreds of people in this section who
wear nugget scarf pins, gold rings, watch
chains and other jewelry of a similar
character which were made from the
product of our local mines. Many peo
ple who have not the capital to develop
these immensely rich mines make a com
fortable living with pan and shovel.
Executive Committee Meets.
The Executive Committee of Hall
County Sunday School Association met
last Saturday in the office of the County
School Commissioner. Favorable re
ports were received from the Sunday
schools of the different districts. After
some discussion of the work to be done,
it was agreed that a Sunday school con
vention be held some time in April com
posed of delegates from all of the schools
in the county. An interesting program
will be arranged and a large attendance
is expected as all of ihe Sunday schools
are in good condition and their members
are thoroughly enthused.
A Watermelon in Midwinter. , ’
To see a 40 pound watermelon on the
10th of February is quite an unusual
sight. It is a sight that our fathers
never dreamed of; and the mention of
one in the city, which has been among
us all the winter while water pipes were
bursting and the mercury flirting in the
territory of zero causes people to almost
stand still from wonder. Nevertheless
there is such a wonder in town. At*
Mitchell’s market in the refrigerator
is a 40 pound rattlesnake watermelon in
a perfect state of preservation, and look
ing as fresh as it did the day it was
pulled from the vine.
The melon was placed in this refrig
erator about the Ist of October by Alex
Woodliff, who has solved the problem as
to keeping. *
They Were Married.
J. F. Boyd, formerly of South Carolina, j
but now of Hall County, and Miss Louise
Bobo of Nashville, Tenn, were married
last Thursday at the home of Rev. J. W.
Hargrove, who performed the ceremony.
The wedding was a very quiet one. The
bride arrived on the 11 o’clock a. m. train
and was met by the groom who carried
her immediately to the home of Mr. Har
grove where the marriage took place,
after which they drove out to the home
of the groom one and one-half miles from
the city on the Brown’s bridge road.
Gone Out of Business.
W. T. Sell dt Co. have sold their stock
of goods and gone out of business for
the present. This action on the part of
this popular firm was due to the failing
health of the senior member, W. T. Sell,
who will move to his farm near the city
and try to regain his former strength
and vigor.
Their stock of dry goods were pur
chased by Hosch Bros. & Co. H. R.
Griner purchased the groceries and has
moved into the store, where he will do a
general grocery business.
Enlarging.
The offices at the G. J. & S. railroad
have been enlarged this week. They
have always been too small, and the rail
road men have had to do their work in
an office not more than four feet wide,
as the managers claimed the road was
making nothing and they could not af
ford to add any extra expense; 4 such as
enlarging depots, offices, etc., and for
this reason the inconvenience of a small
office and an inadequate freight storage
room have been borne by the employees
of the road.
When Doctors Disagree.
He looked at my tongue,and he shook his head-
This was Dr. Smart.
He thumped on my chest, and then he said:
“Ah, there it is! Your heart! W
You mustn't run; you mustn’t hurry;
You mustn’t work; you mustn’t worry.
Just sit down and take it cool
You may live for years—l cannot say—
But in the meantime make it a rule
To take this medicine twice a day. ’
He looked at my tongue, and he shook his head—
This was Dr. Wise.
“Your liver’s a total wreck," he said.
“You must take more exercise.
You mustn’t eat sweets.
You mustn’t eat meats;
You must walk and leap; you must also run.
You mustn’t sit down in the dull old way.
Get out with the boys and have some fun
And take three doses of this a day. ”
He looked at my tongue, and he shook his head—
This was Dr. Bright.
“I’m afraid your lungs are gone," he said.
“And your kidney isn’t right.
A change of scene is what you need.
Your case is desperate indeed.
And bread is a thing you mustn’t eat—
Too much starch. And, by the way.
You must henceforth live on only meat
And take six doses of this a day."
Perhaps they were right, and perhaps they
knew.
It isn’t for me to say.
Mayhap 1 erred when I madly threw
Their bitter stuff away.
But I’m living yet, and I'm on my feet.
And grass isn’t all that 1 dare to eat.
And I walk, and 1 run, and 1 worry too.
But to save my life I cannot see
What some of the able doctors would do
If there were no fools like you and me.
—S. E. Kiser in Cleveland Leader.
A Pretty Good World.
This world's a pretty good eort of world,
Taking it all together.
In spite of the grief and sorrow we meet.
In spite of the gloomy weather.
There are friends to love and hopes to cheer
And plenty of compensation
For every ache for those who make
The best of the situation;
There are quiet nooks for lovers of books,
With nature in happy union;
There are cool retreats from the noontidt
heats
Where souls may have sweet, communion.
And if there's a spot where the sun shines not
There’s always a lamp to light it.
And if there’s a wrong we know ere long
That the God above will right it.
Bo it is not for ns to make a fuss
Because of life’s sad mischances
Nor to wear ourselves out to bring about
A change m our circumstances.
For this world's a pretty good sort of world.
And he to whom we are debtor
Appoints our place and supplies the grace
To help us to make it better.
