MAY BORROW AGAIN.
Governor Candler has called on
State Treasurer Paik for a state
ment showing the condition of the
state treasury on May Ist.
The governor is anxious to know
just what he can do with reference
to paying the school teachers of the
state. It is pretty well settled that
there is not money enough in the
treasury to make the second pay
ment on the present year, and in
order to de it Governor Candler
will have to borrow under the
authority given him in the constitu
tion. The statement of the treas
ury’s condition will show him just
how much money there is on hand
that can be used for the purpose ®f
paying the teachers, and how much
he will have to borrow to make up
the difference. It is expected the
governor will have to borrow at
least ¥IOO,OOO, or thereabouts, in
order to make the payment,.
A MOUNTAIN BOY GETS IT.
The fifth annual contest of the
Georgia State Intercollegiate Ora
torical Association held in Atlanta
last Friday night was won by Noel
W. Grant of Clarkesville, represent
ing the North Georgia Agricultural
college. Mr. Grant’s subject was
“The Righting of a Wrong.”
The four additional colleges
catered in the contest were awarded
decisions in the following order:
Second prize, Mercer university,
Sidney Hatcher.
Third prize, University of Geor
gia, Sam Johnson.
Fourth prize, Emory college,
Alfred C. Broom.
Fifth prize, Georgia School of
Technology, Charles 11. Kicklighter.
Governor Candler occupied a box
at the contest and delivered the
prizes after the judges had made
their rewards.
The young ladies of Brenau were
on hand and wore the red and blue
of the Dahlonega boys. The girls
had their special yells as welj as the
' atfil lh&y~toek a prominent
part in “rooting.”
CONFEDERATE REUNION IN DALLAS.
The twelfth annual reunion of
the United Confederate Veterans’
Association met last week in Dal
las, Texas. The city was thronged
veterans, sons atid daughters
and wives of veterans and other
visitors. It is estimated that 125,-
000 visitors were in Dallas the first
day. The meeting was full of
enthusiasm. General John B. Gor
don of Georgia was again re-elected
commander in chief and was told
that only death would release him
from that oilice. Judge John A.
Ileagan. the only surviving member
of the Confe'itT’Tate cabinet, was in
attendance.
The next reunion will be held in
New Orleans.
FREEDOM FROM MUDSLINGING.
Here of late there has been a ten
dency on the part of Air. Guerry’s
friends to engage in a mudslinging
contest with Mr. Terrell, which
fortunately for the former has been
avoided, as he would surely have
gotten the worst of the bargain.
’ ’ Mr. Guerry has a doubtful past
behind him and such a contest
would not only injure his race but
be unfortunately for him after
wards.
Air. Terrell is conducting his
campaign on too high a plane to en
gage in such an affair and his con
stituency all over the state will
learn with pleasure that he is treat
ing every one connected with his
opponents only in a fair and square
manner.—Athens Banner.

The Normal School.
Gainesville, Ga , April 30, 1902.
i To the county teachers:
As has been announced through these
I columns, Prof. J. W. Marion will com
' mence bis Normal School at the City
■ Hall in Gainesville on Monday, May the
i 19th. I have gladly accepted an invita
| tion to join him in this work, and we
i would be pleased to have every teacher
in the county schools, who can possibly
jdo so, attend. It will be a Teachers’ In
• st it ut© of one month instead of one week,
; and it is our desire to make it the most
. profitable teachers’ school ever held in
' this section. This we can do with your
' presence and co-operation. The law re
quires every teacher, be he principal or
assistant, to attend the institute one
week. Now, if you can attend only one
week you may select the one that best
suits your convenience, but two weeks
are better than one, and four are not too
many.
Tuition is free to all teachers and pros
pective teachers. Board can be had at
reasonable rates.
Bring all your text-books, including
Baldwin’s Sixth Reader. The prescribed
“teachers’ course” will be given special
attention.
Yours very truly,
T. H. Robertson, C. S. C.
Candler will Stay.
Governor Candler will build a hand
some residence on his properiy on the
corner of Race and Candler streets.
His selling his home on Green street
last week caused considerable specula
tion as to what his future plans were,
but now it is definitely settled that the
Governor will remain here, which will
be pleasing information to our people.
Gainesville and Hall county people would
not like to lose Governor Candler as a
citizen, and we are glad to know that we
will not lose him. Whatever honorable
positions be may hold in the future that
may require his absence, we want his
citizenship to remain here.
Every one will be glad to know that he
has already purchased the material to go
into his new residence and no time will
be list in erecting it.
The contract has been let to T. A.
Jones and A. M. Morgan. The plans
call for a modern 6-room dwelling.
The Resident Alumni
Os Brenau College are requested to meet

Tribute of Love.
The following resolutions were unan
imously adopted by Oakwood Lodge No.
425, F. <fc A. M., at a regular commu
nication held April 17, 1902:
Whereas God, in His wisdom, has ta
ken Artie, the only and lovely daughter
of our beloved brother, U. S. OdeH
Resolved, first, that we bow in submis
sion to the will of Him who doeth all
things well, but thank Him for her sweet
life, which sends a ray of sunshine into
the hearts of all who knew her.
Resolved, second, that we tender our
heartfelt sympathy to Bro. Odell and
wife in their sad bereavement.
Resolved, third, that these resolutions
be spread on our second book to her
memory. Also that a copy be given to
each the Gainesville Eagle and the
Georgia Cracker for publication.

Paralysis Struck Him.
11. Warren Merck died from paralysis
last Friday morning at 2 o’clock at his
home near Wood’s mill. He had plowed
all day Thursday, feeling as well as us
ual About 8 o’clock Thursday night be
was stricken with paralysis and in six
hours was dead.
His remains were carried to Sardis
church for interment. The services were
conducted by Rev. J. C. Otwell and the
Odd Fellows.
Mr. Merck was 45 years of age, a mem
ber of the Baptist church, and a promi
nent Odd Fellow. He leaves a host of
friends who held him in high esteem, a
number of relatiyes, and a wife and three
r I
children.
JARRETT.
Corn, cotton, and grass have made
their appearance, and everything invites
a liberal supply of elbow grease.
I don’t think the wheat crop ever
looked sorrier since the creation of the
world.
We have a very nice Sunday-school at
Harmony every Sunday evening. Mr. G.
H. Collins, who is superintendent of the
school, is oue of the most zealous work
ers in Sunday school in our community,
and be deserves the presence of al).
Several days ago a certain man in our
community was seen going toward the
graveyard with a shovel on bis shoulder.
It is supposed that he buried himself, as
he hasn’t been seen since.
I believe the smallpox is over at last.
It was a big booger, and as it failed to
kill anyone we feel greatly disappointed.
A certain young man in our vicinity
went to see bis “pie” last Sunday and
stayed about two hours and never said a
word till he jumped out in in the yard,
looked over his shoulder, shot his hands
to the bottom of his pocket and said in a
kind grunt: “I‘bleve’ I’ll go home and
go to bed.”
It won’t be long until the coops will
be crowded with hens and roosters, pre
paratory to satisfying the inner man next
third Sunday at Harmony. Prof. J. L
Crow will be with us and we will try to
set echoes ringing. Come down, Mr.
Editor, and enjoy the hospitality of us
“country crackers” and get you a square
meal.
The Alternative road law has caused a
great deal of confusion amoung farmers
of this section. It made its appearence
very quietly, but has terrorized everyone.
I don’t think it has a friend in our sec
tion. Everyone was pleased with the
piesentments of the last grand jury, who
recommended that the managers of the
Primary arrange so that every man
should have opportunity to vote for or
against the “road law,” but the action of
the present grand jury has caused the
Irish to rise to a high pitch among the
people, generally. Farmers claim that
the law was passed by a se f of people
largely composed of men who live in
town, where the roads are worked by
taxation, and they think they ought to
have a voice in matters with such long
fingers pointing directly to their pocket
books “For imposing oi us without
our consent” was something inscribed
upon that immortal document, the
Declaration of Independence—but we
will not write a declaration of independ
ence nor declare war, but will try to sub
mit to the crown for a season yet. When
one begins to monkey with his brother’s
pocket-book he soon severs the cords of
peace and places in its stead the germs
of selfishness, hatred, heartburnings,and
disfavor. When the time comes that a
majority has to submit to something they
don’t want, then we are ready to turn
ourselves over to the county authorities,
draw our seersucker coats tight around
our razir backs, and Jet them play
“Devil in the Briar Patch” on the seat of
our pants.

Has Some “Cowetas.”
Mr. Frank Whelcbel and a party of
fiiends from near Price returned this
morning from Oklahoma Territory. Mr.
Whelcbel brought back with him seven
young wolves which he carried home
with him to raise. He trapped the old
wolf, but she got aw T ay from him.
The little ones look very much like
puppies.
Mr. Whelcbel has been offered $35 for
the lot, but holds them at SSO It'is his
purpose to try to cross them with the
dog.
He calls them “coweta wolves.”

Texas, as he was enroute to the Confed
erate Veterans’ re-union at Dallas. He

Braselton, at Weatherford and his condi
tion is serious. In event of his recovery
it will be sometime before he will be
able to return home.
Mr. Cannon Better.
The friends of Mr. John Cannon will
be glad to learn that he is recovering
from his recent severe illness. He is
now able to sit up and walk a little.
Mr, Cannon has been a very sick man
for two months past and it was thought
for a while that he would not recover.

There is no place
LIKE HOME.
A ND there is no more desirable place for its
location than Gainesville. The climate,
water, and seasons are almost perfect; its citi
zens rank with the best in the State; the city
is prosperous, and growing on a solid founda
tion; all houses are occupied and more are de
manded, so that every kind of real estate can
be used to advantage. I have every variety of
real estate, from the cheapest lot to the most
valuable improved property; lots, dwellings,
stores, hotels, farms, large and small, hills and
valleys, in fact everything that goes to make
up the surface of this favored section. Sly
list comprises all kinds, and I can sell you
what you want at a fair price, either for cash
or on time. See me, or write me, letting me
know the character of property you desire and
I will supply you. I ask all those wishing to
buy, and those wanting to sell, to call on me
and I will do you good. I have been in this
business a good many years, and am well ac
quainted with the people and the property of
this whole section.
