economieal suggestions. The finest cloth,
you know, is not always the longest wear¬

goods too fine for business or pleasure.

POLITICAL POINTS.
It is said that J. S. Adams Jfor of
Demorest, will be a candidate
county commisior.er. Jim would
make a good one.
The law giving Habersham
County the right to elect county
commissioners, stipilies that no two
commissioners shall be elected
from any one district. As there are
fifteen-districts in the county of
course there can only be elected one
from five—-which districts will be
the lucky ones?, Toccoa will cer¬
tainly be in it.
“What is " 1 the matter with re*
electing Hon. R. T. Nesbitt to the
office of State Commissioner of
Agriculture? He is thoroughly
competent, and has done good and
faithful service during his tenure
of the office, always watching and
caring for the farmer’s interests.
It would be a mistake at least, to
displace him for some of the candi¬
dates whose familiarity with agri¬
culture and its best interests and ad¬
vanced methods is practically infin¬
itesimal.” —Columbus Enquirer
Sun.
We endorse every word of the
above paragraph. Nesbitt is the
best man in Georgia for the place,
and we are in favor of him holding
the office as long as he wants it.
Without disparaging others it is
safe to say, there was never a bet¬
ter man for the position than’ Nes¬
bitt in that responsible office.
Of the many and great frauds
perpetrated by the national admin¬
istrations, the late bond deal was
the most colossal. Most of
the gold paid for the bonds was
drawn over one county for green¬
backs and Sherman notes and de¬
livered over another for the bonds.
Now let’s have the story of Daniel
Boone’s coon skin and the bar¬
keeper’s whiskey and we will have
the same old tale again.
There are a lot of people up
Habersham, White and Rabun
way who will never be satisfied
until they see Col. J. W. RoWrt
son, “the tribune of the moun¬
tains,” shy his castor into the con¬
gressional ring, and when be doe#
they are going to shout and holler

Silver? Well, 1 should say so.
He can throw down the average
citizen and pour a deluge of statis¬
tics over him before you could say
Jack Robinson. He is fuller of
figures than an arithmetic. His
clothes bulge put with mathematics,
and he is the best stump speaker in
North Georgia. If his friends get
him on the track there wiil be snap
