The really good Clothier does more than
sell good Clothes. He frequently makes

you know, is not always the longest wear¬
ing cloth, and he will not hesitate to tell
patrons they are mistaken when they select
goods too fine for business or pleasure.
7 The good Clothier, moreover, will often
% ly* advise a quality of cloth that will answer
two purposes—giving the buyer two suits,
TWO FOR ONE. practically for one price If the buyer
used his own judgment, it might be necessary to get two
suits.

In his tr.ivels the past week,
The Times man met Judge Jim
Gaston, of Gainesville, being and when
questioned about so faraway
from home, he said :
« s O, I am just around seeing the
beys, and trying to get the republi¬
can party in trim for the forthcom¬
ing election.
“No, I had not thought of being
a candidate for congress on the re¬
publican ticket, and I can’t say
just yet what I should do if the
nomination should be.tendered me.
We won’t know until after the
State convention whether we will
put out State and Congressional
tickets or not. • If it should happen
that my party should make me its
nominee for Congrfess, you may be
sure that I would make one of the
closest canvasses ever made in the
‘Rugged Ninth.
Judge Gaston is a good mnan for
any place he can get, and decided¬
ly the most capable Republican
candidate in the ninth district.
Republican County Convention.
The Republicans of Habersham
county, looking forward to ’97
when they expect good, fat offices
to fall in their outstretched arms
for “adherance to the faith,” met
in Clarkesville last Friday and
nominated delegates to their State
and District conventions, which
convene repectively April 29 and
March 10.
Boss Buck’s fine Italian hand
was shown in the election of dele¬
gates as all elected were favorable
to Col. McKinley. M. C. Wilcox, of MtAiry,
was chairman of the convention
and T. W. Scott, of Toccoa, was
secretary.
The delegates elected to the
State Convention were M. C. Wil¬
cox and T. W. Scott and to the
District Convention M. C. Wilcox
and O. J. Reynolds.

to most of our people. Dr.
Mr. Wright and Edge are

THE CLUB IN SESSION.
CONTINUATION OF TRIAL OF BRO.
JOE GLYNN.
“De club will now come to- or
der,'’ suid the president, the Hon.
Jno. “At de las meetin de case ob
Bro. Joe Glynn was postponed till
dis meetin, dar is no obstructun in
de way of our purceedin to to take
de everdens. Bro. Williams we
would now like to have you pros¬
trate your everdens fore dis club.”
“Yes Sah,” said Bro. Williams
“I’ll do it sah. You see ’twas dis
way I was coming down de alley
hind Mr. Jones place sah when I
hear de duTsat strains of music, I
stopped to lisen sah, and from in¬
side de fence of Mr. Jones place I
hear some one sing ‘Saw my leg
off, saw my leg off, saw my leg off
deole gray goose is dead.’ De pus
son sah what was performin dis
music was sitting on de ground
and he sung it two or three times,
about dis time sah I hear Mr Jones
say, what under de red, white and
blue sun of de Uuited States of
North America is dat. I den hear
Mr. Jones say, Is you a populist,
a democrat or what, de man sing¬
ing said no I is jess a nigger, off.’ den
he sung again ‘Saw my leg ‘Look
Den I hear Mr Jones de say, odder side
here you jess git on off,
ob de fence and saw your leg
I dont want jt done in here, git
quick, too.’ De man iess sung on
‘Saw my leg off.’ De next thing
I knowed sah de gate flew open
and a man came outen de gate head
fust jess like you’d fling u de stick lower ob
wood sah, his head struck
part of de fence on de opposite side
of de alley and stuck thar between
two planks sab, I thought de man
was shore killed. I trjed to git him
outen de fence sah, but had to
knock off de plank to do it. He
was badly scratched up, an’ I think
de jolt must ’a busted a hole in
him what let all de music out—be
didnt sing no more. Dis man sah
was Brother Joe Glynn. I tuck
him home. Data all I know.”
“Pis is very good everdens,” said
the President, “and must compli¬
ment de witnesses on dar lucidity.
Now Brother Jackson if you have
any everdens to contribet de* let us
hive it.” Brother Jackson rose
slowly. “Mr. Presiden,” he said,
“we admits de allegations of being
drunk, but we pleads extenealioo
circumstances. Dis all occurred on
lection day. De defendant visited
devotin’ preemks, and knowin’
from past experiments, dat it was
not well to vote too quick, be

Den Brother Glynn commenced to
sing and singed fer two days, and
would still be singing! guess, ef he
hadn’t er run a splinter about two
inches long in de ebrner of hi*
mouth when he butt de fence.”
“Dat will do Brother Jackson. I
see de mitigatin’ circumstance*,”
said the President, “dis ain’t de

been led astray by de white man;
and under de circumstances, dis
club cant punish him. I darfo let.

TURN ON THE LIGHT.
The Times Unearths Another
Sensation.
The Times scribe met * man last
week who bolds a respon¬
sible position with the Ensign
Car Co., of Worth, Georgia, lumbe?
dealers, and saw mill men, who
among other things said:
“Yes, there was cause for the re-'
port of the legislative investigation committee of the
making the Georgia, and
convict cafnps of
which investigation has occupied
the time and attention of the gov¬
ernor for the past several weeks’.
“When the committee came to out*
camp, we were in the bunds of a
receiver, and the convicts were not
very well fed or clothed but it was
superintendent not our fault. wrote Mr. W. the Gary, principal the
keeper of the penetentiary the sub-lessees' how
matters were—that
did not furnish clothing or food for
them in sufficient of quantity, the sub-lessees and
that on account
(the saw mill men) not being able
to do so, he also wrote the lessee#
in regard to the matter but got no
reply. “Mr. Gary paid of hit’
money out
own pockets to keep the convict*
in food and has never gotten a cent
of it back,
“The les*e«# are now Gary, trying and to'
throw the blame on Mr.
have him discharged, but Gary is’
too sharp for them. lie sent them*
word that he had a copy of all the
correspondence on the matter in
his hands, and if they tried to make’
him shoulder the lessees’ short
coming and be discharged in
in disgrace, be would turn
on the lights and there would be a!
tight the people of. of the State
know nothing that t is
“This new company run
ningour mill, feed and clothe the
convicts well. They the pay to of lessee* tbe*e
$8 per month for hire
convicts for which the State gets
only |u per year. The sub-leasing*
as I understand it is clearly against
the laws of the State.”
“If it is against the laws of thfc
State to snb-lease convicts it if
time the State took some cog¬
nizance of the fact. These convict*'
should be confined at labor in ar
penitentiary. This $ii per yea/
for big able bodied men is a
farce, then too, it is shown that
they are in ready demand at |8 per
month or fo6 per year.

see what will be de/eloped.
