Little Joe has opposition you may find

The pnrngrnphers are having fun
over the Gosh-Dern wedding, in which
John Cosh married Nellie Pern.
It is to ho hoped that certain demo
cratic news pnpers will forbear attack
ing Mr. Brown daily, since he has op
position.
Among the things to be remembered
in the October general election is that
the recent change in the law requires
the people to elect the Pension Com
missioner and work already has begun
for the success of lion, J. W. Lindsey
in this county, opposition to him having
appeared.
Mr. Lindsey is not only a popular of
ficial, but comes from our neighbor
county of Wilkinson, and is one of the
most competent and obliging officials
the state has ever had.
The vetrans will no doubt be glad
of the opfortunity of ex; ension to the
high esteem in which they must
hold Mr. Lindsay, by casting their
ballots for him in October and it will
be a groat pleasure to his friends in
this county to endorse him in the elec
tion.
The 1Ikrai.ii takes more than ordi
nary pleasure in giving its support,
whatever it maybe worth, to Mr. Lind
say .and we feel sure his most excel
lent record will re-elect him to his
position.
Two platform pledges of lion. Joseph
M. Brown will be redeemed by the
present administration, namely, annual
payments of pensions and the abolish
ment of the convict lease system.
Large orders of job printing from
Davishoro indicates that the merchants
of that town propose to he right in
front for the fall business. They are
up to date in that they want good
work, too.
The talk is that an organized light
will he made ngainst the ratiliention of
the city court bill and that the ollicers
of the Brown campaign club in the re
cent campaign will act ns officers of the
organization.
The so called “pure” registration
law requires voters to register six
months before the Elections, the books
dlosing that lengt h of time beforehand.
It may he pure, but a lot of good folks
may be excluded by failure to regis

We did not attend the commence

Editor—Is it true that Mr. Hard
wick was present when the senate
committee recommended the city
court bill containing the compromise
amendment leaving the matter to the
general election where both the whites
afld colored will vote and that he did
not protest against the amendment.
•‘Subscriber.”
Ask him—Ed.
Editor—What is the salary of the
city court Judge anyhow? Seems to
be a matter worth inquiring into and
must lie too high from the way the law
is changed around.

The Judge is paid a salary of Twelve

Kick Kolums.
For some time the Columbus Ledger
has been running a Kick Kolumn and
the SandersviHe Herald has just in
augurated one. This paper calls its
communication department the ‘‘ques
tion box” and the “people’s corner,”
and not all the contributions are kicks.
They develop some decidedly lively
things at times. For instance one ener
getic render lias discovered that Com
missioner Stevens and Commissioner
Hudson, both violated the law when
they appointed Walter Coleman of
of Oedartown oil inspector. The posi
tion by rights belong to Rome.—Rome
Tribune Herald.
Notice.
Notice is hereby given that there will
be introduced in the present Legisla
tive. General Assembly of Georgia, be
fore its adjournment, an net to amend
an act creating a board of Commission
ers of Ronds and Revenues for the
county of Washington, approved Au
gust 3rd. 1904. Providing that it shall
be left in the discretion of said board
as to how much snlary shall he paid the
superintendent of roads and bridges of
snid county, .defining the duties and
linbilites of said superintendent, and
giving the board exclusive control of
the misdemeanor convict of said county
and also giving the board the right to
hire or lease misdemeanor convicts
from other counties whenever said
board should deem it nefcessary or ex
pedient. This July 16th, 1908.
The street sprinkler is doing good
service and might he used to advantage
in settling the, dust raised by the city
court bill.
The people seem to be more interest
ed in the ratification or defeat of the
city court hill than in any candidate
for the office.
If tliis light on the ratification of the
city court bill keeps up, it may get to
the ‘ jin spute” stage. Better write
cards gentlemen. «
Dont it sound natural to read—If you
oppose the city court bill. Send your
name and address to A. S. Ohnmlee,
SandersviHe, Ga.
Surgeons who have been making ex
periments have announced that bad
boys cannot be cured by operations on
the cranium. It will be a Ion); time
before a better treatment than the
carpet slipper is discovered.—The
Golden Age.
The people of Cordele don’t propose
to have such a reputation as Savannah.
The good people are lighting the near,
nearer and nearest beer in that town
by organization and public mass meet
ings. An aroused public sentiment
will put down the evil.
The Rome paper is in error, at last
so far as The IIerami is concerned,
must have referred to the Columns
paper.
We are sure the Commissioners were
right, both in law and wisdom in
selecting Coleman, and no Herai.ii
kicker has said otherwise.—Editor.

ly Choir. He died in New York Au

We congratulate Governor Smith on
liis veto of the school book bill. Every
renson in law and wisdom seems to
favor the veto to us.
Continued drouth for several days
past has injured the crops in some sec
tions of the county and caused consid
erable cotton to open.
The extra session will deal with the
convict lease question and we hope
will do away with it without so many
grand stand plays in politics.

Yts too long ahead of time for stabs
at the Brown administration to do good.
The people generally will be willing to
judge his administration by its fruits.
While the candidacy of Mr. Carter
against the democratic nominee for
governor may be a joke, there should
be none so unwise as to say so public
ly-
If Governor Smith will grasp the
opportunity to speak in behalf of Mr.
Brown, since he has opposition, a lot
of nice things will be said about
him.
A coat of paint would not hurt the
school house before school begins.
Let the city fathers glance in that di
rection and they will see the need
of it.
A Convict bill prepared by Hon.
Murphy Candler, of DeKnlb county, is
supposed to have the approval of the
governor. If so, it is likely to pass as
some measure to end the lease system
is desired, and the governors veto will
perhaps forbid some of the plans sug
gested.
The effort to abolish the PrisonCom-
mission and create another looks too
much like legislating against men to
us and loo much politics in it. The
people are after the system, not the
men. If the men have violated any
law, let them be punished in the courts
and they will then resign. Putting
men out of office on assumptions
should be unpopular in Georgia by
this time.
The Macon Telegraph thinks it im
possible that the young man with the
striped hut and turned up trousers cun
be as foolish as he looks.
