To the Editor of the Courier:
There are a good many boys in the
printing business in Rome and sur
rounding country, who would like to
enter the contest for tho swiftest com
positor at the coming fair, but who do
not feel competent to compete with old
and experienced printers. Would it
not be a good idea for the Association
to offer a separate diploma for the
swiftest and best compositor, exprience
to be taken into consideration.
Respectfully,
The Boys.

T he political campaign of we, which
includes National, State and county elec
tion*, and which will undoubtedly bo the moat
active and hotly contested of any sinos the
memorable canvass of 1840, is now fairly opened.
The National Democratic Party will this year
make a bol- 1 , vigorous and doubtless successful
struggle lor the maintenance and supremacy of
those principles which nro vital to the prosper
ity of the Ropublio and cssontial to tho wtll-
bcing of tho pooplo.
In addition to the Presidential election, the
people In Georgia ami Florida will eleot new
State governments. In Florida the campaign
promises to be unusually vigorous, and there is
a probability that for the first time since tho war
the people of that Radical ridden State will
elect a Domocratio State government. In these
campaigns the people of tho South are deeply
interested; and overy Intelligent citizen, who
has the welfare uf his country and his section at
hoart, should ucquaint himself with every detail
of the great work of redemptloa and reform that
is now going on.
To this end he should aubaoribo to and assist
in circulating the SAVANNAH MORNING
NEWS, an independent Democratic newspaper,
of pronounced opinions and fearless in their ex
pression ; a paper that is reoognised overy where
as the best daily in the Sauth. Its editorial de
partment is vigorous, thoughtful and consistent,
while its news and local departments are mar
vels o( industry and completeness. Its depart
ment of Georgia and Florida affairs ii not con
fined to a mere barren summary of events
transpiring In those States, but is enlivened by
comment at once apt, timely and racy.
Tho ample resources of the establishment will
bo devoted to furnishing the readers of the
MORNINC NEWS
with the latest Intelligence from all parts of the
world, through the press dispatches, speeial
telegrams, and by msans of speeial eorreepond-
ence; and through those agencies the paper will
be the earliest chronicler of every noteworthy
inoldontof tho political campaign ot 1876,
