To Move Young Harrjs.
From Cleveland Progress.
We find the following paragraph
in a recent issue of the Clarkesville
Advertiser,:
“The president of Young Harris
college and his wife were at Col.
Robertson’s week before last.
The trustees are thinking of mov¬
ing the college to Nacooche Val¬
ley. ’ ’
And this is a good idea the trus¬
tees have. We understand that
they have been considering for
some time the advisability of mov-
ing- tlie their'rjem college and we' sincerely
trust deliberations wiil
materialize in a move either to Na-
coochee or Cleveland.
I! a move is . really contemplated,
our citizens will oner substantial
inducements to have the college
located here, and would give it
their unanimous support. Either
Cleveland or Nacoochee could
furnish excellent sites for the build-
| ings, and either place would be
I much more accessible than is the
I present location at Young Harris,
j om enterprising citizens we
j suggest that this is a good thing,
?o push it along !
\ es. that talk is all well enough
at long range when you do not ex-
pect the trustees to hear you and
you want to blow your town a wee
bit.
What do the trustees want to
to move the college for? Obvsous-
Iv to get railroad facilities. They
don’t want to be hampered bv a
I ride of 40 or*, miles through'the °,
I country , f to get to college. n Alien vl
the trustees see (it to make public
I their desire to move their college,

l he Southern railway company
is doing one th : ng that is certainly
worthy of emulation, aprobation
and appreciation to a very high de-
gree, and that is this company’s
wonderful amount of work in ad-
vertising the south, and especially
that section lying contiguous to its
line of roads. The company is prob-
aby doing more to bring immigra-
tion south and develop the country
than any other one agency. Mr.

lent man for the position.
Grover Cleveland has done what
he had all along threatened to do—
forsake his party and the men who
elected him to the great office which
be holds,—and gone bag and bag-
gage into Palmer and Buckner’s
addition to the republican party.
Cleveland, to say the least of it, is de-
void the finer sensibilities of appre
| ciatjon _ for he seems to think he
\ is bigger than tbe other 6even miu .
ion voters of the democratic party.
May the party never again be bur¬
dened with such an incubus as Gro¬
ver Cleveland.
W. J. Elearst, although a mill¬
ionaire, is an honest man and a
true-blue democrat. He gives to
the democratic campaign fund a
dollar for every other dollar con-
tnbuted by the people of the Unit-
ed States. Mr. Hearst is the pub-
lisher ot the greatest democratic
paper in the country and the only
large paper in New York advocat-
ing Bryan and Sevvell. The New
1 ork journal is the champion of
the people, and is in every respect
an up-to date newspaper.

Tobacco and Teetotalers.
Tho impression, which lingered very
long, that smokers tend to become drunk¬
ards, has disappeared under the evidence
of facts, all the teetotal races smoking
furiously, and the plant has come to be
regarded in its true light as a sedative
with little perceptible reaction. No one
commits crimes because he smokes, no one
loses his temper because he indulges in a
cigar—though we are bound to say tho
want of one does not in a smoker conduco
to serenity—and no one thinks the less
keenly or strenuously because he enjoys
tobacco.—London Spectator.
