' 03 Doings of the Club at Its Reg¬ ular Weekly Meeting * VI SOME REMARKS BY THE PRES. AND A LETTER FROM THE HON. LOUIS DAVIDSON. The club had been called to or der. The minutes read, and the regular order of business had been gone through, when the President, looking over his spectacles with much dignity brought his gavel on the table top. “Gentle men,” said he, “It hub 01 ly been a few months since dis club hab been We hab labored under some inisadvantages in selecting from de mass de cream of de cullud elerment of dis camunity anil even after fve had skum off de cream eben den, I say, some ob dem* dat was skummed clabbored on us and had to be expulsed. Now I do want to say dat my hair rises wid pride when looking back over dem troubled waters wid one eye, I cast de odder forra'd and in de radge ob wision observe de moving tide of humanity swaying backward and forrards under de good influ¬ ence emernating from dis club. It do afford me much pleasure to state to dis club, dat I notice in de pa¬ pers dat a branch ob dis club has been organized in de City ob Wash¬ ington. It do also gib me pleasure to read to you a letter which I hab received from one ob our most prominent citizens, now resident in de far west.” After a little search the following letter was produced and read : “TotheHon. John Ruffin, Pres, of the Anti Zoological Club, Toc¬ coa Citv, Ga: My Dear Sir—It is with profound gratitude that I learn from The Toccoa Times of the rapid strides being now made in our citv towards attaining to that higher moral and interlectual plane of society, to which some have heretofore aspired but none have been able to reach, I’m now satisfied that by your skilful guid¬ ance, backed by your moral courage and sound judgment, the society of our dear little town can aspire to climb even as high as Haman, I have also been toki that the Anti Foological Club has elevated the colored society of Toccoa to such u height that the ladies walk on tip¬ toe and at certain season of the year the gentlemen refuse to en¬ tertain eVen such callers as the Hon Mr. Gribble and will not even receive the card of/the Hon Mr. Kimsy. Go on with the work my friend and may you meet with the best of success. )iVe will organize a club here soon. Ever your friend, Hon. Louis Davidson. ” “Dat is a very fine letter” re¬ marked thePrest., “yit de gentle¬ man seems a little mixed on de name ob de club. But before we ciose dis here meetin’,” continued de president, “I would jess like ter say dat de gentleman what prints er little 2x4 paper in dis town ,lvas made some remarks erbout de Sec¬ retary of dis club. He said he need side whiskers and a bath tub. Business Cards From 1.50 per 1000 up. Ask for Specimens as nd prices of our work, We un ft quivocally guarantee to do the best work of ANY printing estab ij s i imen t in north-east Georgia,and as GOOD as can be done in the state if you’ve ever had pricey lower than the above quoted ones send us the original bill with your order and we’ll duplicate the price and give you a neater job. If you are not satisfied with your work you need not take it. THE TIMES , Toccoa , Ga. 1 dont like to talk erbout some ob de white folks of de town,as I haint the liburty to express dar needs,but frum er careless obsurvation ob de gentleman in dis connection,! real¬ ly think he ought to git de tin whis¬ tle outen his throat and git some new brains and den study good manners. He needs dem all.” A committee was then ap¬ pointed to look after a sick brother, after which the meeting closed. Lonny Peyton, l - Secty. POLITICAL POINTS There is talk, so we hear, of Representative Boyd of Lumpkin county entering the race for solici¬ tor general of this circuit, and that Howard Thompson is likely to be¬ come a candic^te for congress. Now there you are! That’s a new move in the Rugged Ninth! “Howard continued is too smart informant, a pqliti tician,” our “net to be hunting office, when he hasn’t got one. If it is true that he will no be » candidate for solici¬ tor general next fall you can be as¬ sured that Howard has allowed his ambition to crawl up a notch or so, and that he is looking for some¬ thing else, probably the nomina¬ tion for Carter Tate’s seat, Then there are Peeples and Bill Simmons of Gwinnett, both of whom are likely to shy their castors into the politican ring—wanting to go to congress—both is are good men, too. Carter Tate sawing wood and saying nothing; he has made an ef¬ ficient congressman, but he has been elected twice and the boys all want a chance at the public pap themselves, so Carter wont have a walk-over this time. “Then CoL Robertson of your county is a mighty good man to represent us and could win hands down if he would make a canvass for the nomination. This,I under¬ stand he wont do, as he is one of the old time Jeffersonian demo¬ who thinks the office should seek the man,and not the man seek the office and I.am sorry to say a man must scramble for office if he wants to get it these days. Col. Robertson wont scramble but I sup¬ pose would accept the nomination if tendered him. “You’ve got-a good man, and in fact, two of them make right in your town who would good con¬ gressmen, either of whom Would make it quite warm for the fellow who kept up with him. I mean Col. Ed. Schaefer, who ndmbers his friends by the thousand in this section,and ex-StateSenator Lewis Davis, Whoso ably represented you a couple of years ago. Any one of these men would make good con¬ gressmen, blit you cant tell just where the lightning is going td strike.” \ It is stated that Flel^th Johnson of Gainesville is a candidate for solicitor general of this circuit, and as stated in last week’s paper, M. T. Perkins of Habersham is also in the race. Perkins is a good elec¬ tioneer and he will likely run a fast race. The Times man met Lawyer J. J. Bowden one day last week and on inquiry Jack admitted the soft impeachment legislative, that be honors. was a can¬ He didate for ran a fine race at the last election and was only beaten 28 votes. County officers to be elected this fall are commissioners : representative, of ordinary, and three roads revenues, sheriff, clerk, treasurer, coroner, tax receiver, and tax col¬ lector. .k- %$.. JUST OUT OF REACH jfijh Some homely Philosopher remarked L that “all the good things of life seemed to be on the other side of a barbed wire £ fence ” Now in order to remove this wire from about one of the best things in Geor¬ ==r? gia, we will receive subscriptions to this pa¬ r- between this and February 1st, at the per trial price of TEN CENTS FOR THREE ’■Q mm MONTHS, provided you are not now a sub¬ JE T 4 scriber.

THE TIMES, _— TOCCOA, QA The Harmony Grove Echo, dis¬ cussing ninth district politics, says: “Carter Tate will, of course, want to keep his seat, so there will be the rub. In our opinion the man who runs ahead of him will have to get a good move on him. Carter goes fishing with the boys in the sum¬ mer and kisses the babies, and wKen congress is in session he stays at his post and it’s a pretty hard matter to beat such a man as that.” Lives there a man, in either of the great parties, with soul so dead that to himsfelf he has not said, and also to a few confidential friends who are acquainted with members of the Associated Press, this is my own, my native land, and therefore, by the force of curcumstances, it must be generally achnited that I am the logical candidate for the presidency? If such there be, let him use all due caution and slip away to the bounds of the frozen north if he would escape booming the chief attraction «*f some dime museum.—-Denver News. V The editor of The Times is in receipt of a letter from Mr. J. W. McLaury, formerly of Toccoa, but now of Charlotte, N. C., and among other things he says ; “I am pleased with The Times and con¬ gratulate you on your splendid edit¬ ion last week. ” The Toccoa, Ga., Times, came to our table last week with a four page supplement, heavy book pa¬ per, filled with nice illustrations and great big juicy advs. Whoop ’er up, Allen. Your Texas friends are watching you, with pride.— Springtown (Tex.) Sun. The chairman of the Republican committee of Habersham county has called a meeting at .the court house in Clarkesville on Thursday, February 20, for the purpose of electing delegates to the Republi¬ can District convention and also to elect delegates to the State conven¬ tion. Our reduction of subscription price to 10 cents for three months seems to be waking the denizen up in “this neck of the woods” as our esteemed friend, Editor King of the Carnesville Tribune would write it. W'e have added about 50 new names to our list in the past week. Captain of the Band.

You are not a white capper, are you? An Explanation Tn last week’s paper we spoke of Mr. E. P. Simpson sending Dr. Allyn and family to South Ameri¬ ca and retaining them there at hit private expense as missionaries. We desire to say in justice to Mr* Simpson that he (Mr. .Simpson) knew nothing of the editor’s in¬ tention to publish said article or had knowledge that’ the editor knew of the matter, or 4 >ad" found out that he (Simpson) was the financial backer of Dr. Allyn.

The Woman’s Literary Club will meet Saturday afternoon at half past three with Miss Ola Jones. Mr. Henry Holley’s family have all been down with the measles— and all were down at once except Mr. Holley. D. J. Hayes, of Carnesville, was in the city Tuesday and called on Teh Times and left some of -the ing* lubricating oil that runs the print¬ press. One of our exchanges makes the following very interesting remarks on how we use our time : One of the most valuable demonstrations of the closing quarter of this cal century, is that a broad educa¬ tion can be obtained by very busy peoble outside of colleges and uni¬ versities. Tens of thousands of people all around the world are ac¬ complishing this by utilizing the fragments Of time by reading the very best of books. -There is scarcely one person in a hundred, even of the very busiest people, r.n h ^:"SlX“ n r r l“-.Z: rrH’SrtTv^: mind by so using one hour out of every twenty-four, in four va»rs time, oft the could history, get literature, a birds-eye philos¬ view ophy and science of all the world. A great many people lose enough time each winter in unneccesa 5 sleep to master a thousand pages history. And by gathering up the fragments of time now going to waste during the day, the same persons might master a natural science each winter. Judge J. B. Estes was a visitor in Toccoa Saturday.
