The extra session of the legislature
besides doing several things cost the
state about two thousand dollars per
day.
The merchant who advertises ap
preciates your trade : and we suppose
the ones who do not advertise don’t
care whether you trade with them or
not—at lenst they never say they do
in print.
We suspected that when John
Temple Graves was knocking one of
the candidates in the recent campaign
for Governor of Georgia that this elo
quent Georgian would bolt the demo
cratic nominee.
It seems that our neighbos, the
Progress, thinks that the Washington
county cotton crop is cut about half.
We also think the crops ef this county
short but not as much so as some seem
to think. It is to be hoped not any
way.
The Atlanta Georgian and the Con
stitution are putting it up to each
other pretty strong through the two
papers. Cut it out, boys; there’s
nothing to it, as the public will forget
who gets the best of it before the ink
gets dry.
We are not disposed to knock the
city administration for that matter, but
we do think that in justice to the tax
paying public that the proceedings of
the city council should be published,
lly doing this every one could see just
the condition of affairs here all the
time.
CONTEST CONCLUDED AND THE WINNERS NAMED.
In the hidden word contest-
story, printed in this paper last
week, many young people par
ticipated. To make the story
plain, we reprint it in this column
with the correct names , filled in
the blanks.
The girl winner is little Miss
Reba Burgnmy who gets the can
dy—she tilled in all blanks. The
boy that won is George Rawlings,
and he will I e awarded the soda-
water cheeks. The winners may
call Saturday for the prizes:
THE STORY;
Came to Sandersville recently and, naturally, wishing to
learn some
thing geographically of the pretty little city and the surrounding country, I
took a stroll the tlr«t nmmintr after remaining: over KNIGHT. *'
lirst morning after remaining over KNIGHT. Fourd the
U1IODDS in fair condition, and walking a LITTLE distance outside
the corporate limits I passed several pretty HOLMES with redolent FLOWERS
about the yards and gardens and soon cams in sight of the AN OOI) to find
that the recent approach of winter has traasformed the wonted green foliage
to a BROWN hue. The people claim to have had plenty rain recently, also
some HALE and SNOW. The streams have been FULLER than for
months. GUMMING back to the city, I went out in a direction WEST,
crossed a few BRIDGES and if 1 had remained out very much later, think I
should have struck GAMP; but turning WRIGHT about, I lllTI
a retreat for the hotel and must say that never in nil my OARRERE had I
been so thoroughly tired nnd hungry. Felt in my pocket and found sufficient
SILVER to pny my hotel bill, then I hung my lint on the WALL, went
out to bailie my face nnd when I saw the SPARKS emanating from the
KITCHENS stove line, felt that in a short while the supper BELL would
ring nnd my appetite wqtild be appeased. Sure enough, when T went to the
table, which was really lit for a KING or a 1‘RINQK? I found there
on — to call it in plain ENGLISH — VEAL, BIRD nnd other good
tilings too numerous to mention.
But it is to be lioped that the readers of Tiik lfmui.n will not think this
short story is concluded with a BLOUNT paragraph.

APPLICATION FOR ADMINISTRATION.
We desire to call attention to
the job department of the Herald
and Tribune.
We have with us two of the best
job printers to be found in this
section of the state. We pay these
printers on nu average of fifteen
dollars per week. They are high-
priced men. We have to pay them
because they can get the wages in
larger places than in Tennille
and Sandersville. Any first-class
man who knows a trade can de
maud good wages.
In order to turn out the very
best of work, on short notice, we
are compelled to keep the two
printers. We can give you a job
the same day you give the order,
if you want it. They keep busy
doing this same thing all the
time.
Some people do not care wlial
kind of a job of work they get—
others do. People who know
what good work is, will appreciate
good work and those are the kind
wo try to please; if we do not
please them we do not charge one
cent for our work. Isn’t that
fair ?
Let us do one job for you and
show you what we have said above
is true. All we want is a trial—
and then you will be convinced
that we give you none but the
best.
Our Mot‘■o:—“The Best is the
Cheapest.”
