A Mixture.
Having had occasion to go
to Ellijay on a little business
—what I saw—what They said
and what I snrmised, got
me to thinking, and at last to
writing. I saw for the first
time a good looking young la¬
dy acting as depot, express
and ticket agent. They said
she was the depot agent and
of course I only know what
they said, and I thought that
it might bo well, for those
who can to give their girls a
business education for there
are many positions and places
that|hey hoo<Hn could fill for a lively
case they get left, and
I thr that there are a great
manyyoung men who could
and might be ornaments in
church and society instead are
not fit for buzzards bait.
They said Jule Picket, sold
three tidtes as much liquor to
the Murray people, as he did
to Gilmer; and I thought that
if everybo<^ thought as much
of parson Picket and his liquor
as I, he Would mighty
lonesome th<flnan ovm: there. They
said that who keeps
the Poplar Log grocery, don't
drink a drop, and I thought,
sensible man, in that particular
he knows it isn't will®ill fit tor a hog
and that it a horse
when drenched with if. They
said some would hitch u^ and
walk through the toll gate and
I thought that the J| Devil ought
to have his dues. the road is
rough and hard tosskeep up and
the gate keeper a $ .....I
saw only one drun fellow
while on 3aid trip JED d he
looked like he was from ,ur
ary, and I thought tha ‘be
he had got mighty dr . Then
I thought about; Some of the
clever young men of my own
neighborhood—how they wil
go or send—worll than to
throw their money away with
the ruau who can do without
drinking the stuff he sefis.
Gorge themselves, run people
off from around
like so many jerseys and keep
decent people awake. “Men
and brethren what shall we
to be saved?” One poet broke
loose and saict: This world is
what we make it.” I tear away
and say Murray county will be
what the people make it.
Young ladies you may do much
in iuppressing these great evils
and need I say, keep a skinned
eye tor yourselves. Gray¬
headed, bald-headed, sensible
men, old and young, where do
you stand on the liquor qifi®
tion? let all good people £do
what they can against it and
may the good Lord help us out
with a cyclone or an earth¬
quake or something else, where
it will do the most good. Now
who says I din't see what I
saw, heard what I heard and
thought what I thought.

HOLLY CREEK RIPPLES
April 1, ‘90:—
Everything seems to indi
cate that Spring-time has coma
Birds are singing their spring
songs; buds and blooms are
bursting foTtb; Easter has come -
and gone, and the children have
eaten their Easter egg a Peach*
es are not all killed. Farmers
are preparing for planting their
cropa Rev. R B Brooks, of
Oostanaullie Association^ is
visiting at Rev. J A Phillips’
and preached at New Prospest
yesterday. He will remain in
the neighborhood yet a few
days, and probably have other
appointments for preaching.
Following is a fair sample of
calf sense: last night, while rub¬
bing, a calf of the writer got
the bell collar hung over a small
stubby hickory bush and kept
winding around until the bush
twisted almost to a kink and
fifially choked the calf to death.
Mr. Charley Ridley and wife,
who were married last Christ¬
mas are
Mr. Mm. H Trollinger and
Miss Elizabeth Helton, were
married last Thursday at 6:30
p m at the residence of Mr. A
B Trollinger by Rev. B F
Bright. So you see, while
some “part'’ others “marry.”
Parties to the “marriage con¬
tract” ought to “premeditate’
more “seriously.”

and singing societies. Eff.
Gyphum Texas, Apr. 7th. 1890.
Mms. Editors: I seat myself
once more to write your paper,
and hope you will Rive this article
space, and I will fell yon something
about the “far west“ as we use to
call it.
We have been having some dry
windy weather for the past six
months. On the 27th of March we
had a big sand storm.the worst one
ever known. I tell you it made
folks hustle to "their dug-outs. I
think a dug out is the whole idea
anyway. One could write his name
on the pillows or anything white,
so you see it was dusty. The game
was, eves and mouth shut, or see
and eat no more.
Wheat is hurting for rain.
W'heat, melons and sorghum can
do well here when it rains. Sorg<
hum is raised for feed; corn dosn't
grow well here.
Game has been plentiful, but is
getting scarce now. We have
some of the following species yet:
antelope, deer, turkey, wolves,
wild cats and pole cats.
Before I forget, I would like to
ask the Editors it they will give
space in the Ti«es for children's let
ters (say like the Constitution) I
always like to read children's let¬
ters. It does a child a great deal of
good to see a letter of his own pro¬
duction in print. I know by myself
it makes me feel like I was doable
ointed.
Another question; which is the
worst to have plenty to eat and be
sick and can't eat, or be well and
eat everything you can get hands on?
I wish you all could see the prais
rie dogs ratile snakes and tarantulas
The prairies are full of them.
There is not a great deal of farm¬
ing going on in this country.
Nothing much but stock herding.
Good wishes to all. Tom Cain.
