“/ Know Hot What the Truth May bc> I Tell the Tale as It was Told to Me.”
TOCCOA, HABERSHAM COUNTY, GA., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1896.
“Xo matter what might be the
action of the convent on upon the
financial question, all Democrats
should support the nominees. This
position I then believed to be cor-
rect, and I ant prepared to sustain
it with equal sincerity. Now, the
Democratic party does not contine
itself to this single itesue, nor will
it? powers to serve the people cease
with the solution of that issue. It
stands for just taxation, for sup¬
pression of monopolies and trusts,
for government according to the
terms of the constitution, for the
rights of the plain people of the
land. With us Georgians it also
stands for honesty and the capaci-
ty in the management of our State
and county affairs, for the defense
of property, home and person.
The Democrat who fails to vote for
t | ie Xational Democratic ticket
-stlikes a blo\V at Democratic State
organization. I urge each Demo-
crat to vote for Bryan and Sewall-,
even though he in no wise partici¬
pated in the Chicago convention.”

cism of Judge Kitnsey, it is under-

There are no better men in
the county. The position these
gentlemen occupy is not a political
plum. They are members of ihe
three different political parties and

The goldolators and Hannacrats
made themselves ridiculous at In-
dituiapolis Wednesday. They will
probably nominate Senator Vilas, of
W isconsin for President and Gen.
Buckner, of Kentucky for Vice-
President. They only claim that
they can possibly carry four States. ’
Kentucky, Texas, Florida and
abama, We will bet them a
of jewsharps they don’t carry one
state. If this is Patriotism we
would not recognize it if we met
it in the road.
Col. Robertson, of Habersham,
one of the electors of the state at

FURNITURE FACTORY ROBBED.
Frank Hughes, Zeb Nix and Lum
Heaton Charged.
\\ ednesdav evening warrants
were sworn out by the Furniture
Company for Frank Hughes, Lum
Heaton, the former night watch-
man. and Zeb N.x for taking fur-
n,hire from the factory.
It. seems' that these men had
lormed themselves into a club to
turmture .. without . , r lot
get . paying
it, as several bureaus, bedsteads,
„- a shstands. etc., were found in the
houses of Zeb Nix and Fr.-.-k
Hughes.
Zeb Xi,\ is a voting man v *
has worked at the factory, and
knows all about the place, and it
seems through the connivance of
the nightwatchman, C. F. Ilea-
ton, he and Frank Hughes, who
has been working for Ed Harris at
the Southern repair shops, would
go to the factory after dark and
get just what they wanted of unfin-
died goods and take them to
Hughes' house and put 1 them to-
gether.
The way CoL Jones cross-exam-
ined the trio, it was plainly seen
that each tried to make it seem that
the other party gave the material
to him. but Zeb Nix virtually ad-
mitted his guilt and incriminated
each of the other men
Judge Cook bound each of the
men over to the Superior Court in
bonds of $150.00 each,
Goods to the amount of about $501,
found in the houses of Zeb Nix and
Frank Hughes, were recovered.
There has been considerable pet¬
ty thieving in this section lately,
but between Judge Cook and Judge
Kinisey it is likely to be soon brok-
