Editor Journal: We have been
asked to say something in your val
uable paper about the new town of
Baldwin Really there are so many
good things that might truthfully be
said of Baldwin and her wonderful
progress and Phoenix like growti
her capabiht-.eo, and p ssibilities for
the future as we!! as the present, that
we scarcely know what to say first.
To the stranger who is unacquainted
with this country, and her varied
gifts, it would be a dificult thing to
speak of any one of her cardinals
points first and thereby reach the
point of interest that would be upper
most to every individual who might
desire to come here. If we first
spoke of her healthful climate and
deep, wells of icy cold water that
brings back flush to the cheeks and
loundDess to the limbs ot the afflicted,
that might be toe very one thing to
interest the one, while another would
sav, we are not cairing to here about
that, we want to know what about tht
financial pmspects of the town and
country too, wc want to make money
by going there, if we go—Ah l ight
‘here we have you, even if these two
points the only incentives.
What about a tewr. surrounded by a
richly yielding country, whose fertile
soil is productive of everything that
could be grown in a Southern climate
perfection, country which has both
supply and demand, a country of pos
sibilities and health to enjoy them.
Indeed it would surprise any one, who
migth have passed the town site of
Baldwin one year ago to pa s s again
and re view the scene, then a pretty
landscape, now a pretty thriving town
with building and gardens and orch
ards and vineyards and the rattle.and
rustle of vehickles coining ana going
—bringing in and taking out—ever
the result of a business planned to
meet the needs of an enterprising peo
pie. -A- C.

Tivo Girls.
Americans who have lived ir Mad
rid describe the little ex Queen Mei
cedes as the most picturesque figure
in the Spanish court. She becamee
he reigniug, but not ruling, queen
when her father died, but lost her
shadow of a crown at the birth of
her brother six months later. In case
of his death, she would again become
the sovereign of Spain.
She is described as a slight homely
young girl, with singularly modes*,
sincere bearing* She has shown, too
it is said, a womanly sympathy with
the poorer class of her people-
Upon her seventeenth birthday it
was proposed that a magnifice.nt state
ball should Vie given at the Escurial
in celebration, of the event; but the
princess refused, saying that rejoicing
and dancing were out of place in the
present condition of her country:
She asked instead that her birth
day should only be marked by her
appointment to the presidency of the
Red Cross Society in Spain-
This was done, and she then receiv
ed the directors of the society, women
belonging to every class, and after
ward drove, with iier mother and the
little king, to a hospital near Madrid,
and gave a great dinner to scores of
wounded Spanish soldiers returned
from Cuba and the Philippine Is
lands.
Wilhelmia of Holland, who is
called by her people -‘the dear queen,”
recently reached her seventeenth
year. A grand ball was given, and
the girl sovereign appeared lor the
first lime with her hair up and a
sweeping train.
It is not whollv matter of gossip
that about this time a candidate for
the place ot king consort of the Neth
eilands was urged upon her as the
one princ whom the sovereigns ot
Europe considered most suitable for
her husband.
The queen is said to hr ve gi
considered the question, and then to
have -aid, “I never can love this man,
and queen or not, I will not marry a
man whom I cannot love.”
These “little queens” have the
game questions to meet in life as
other girls. Their decisions are
worth the attention of their untitled
sisters. —Youths Companion.
Capt. \V. Smith, the gallant Roman
who was commissioned last week to
raise a company of immune volunteers
has already enlisted about 50 of as
goud men as ever shouldered a gun.
Capt.. Smith says he will finish his
command this week and that he will
at once notify Col, Ray. the com
mander of the regiment and that, his
men will be promptly examined and
ordered to Mascon.
Col. Ray’ regiment will he quarter
ed in Macon and will there be aiu
tered in as the old Regiment United
States volunteers. The regiment will
be composed of fair companies each
from South Carolina. Georgia and
Florida.
Those men under Col. Ray will be
among the first troops to be ordered
to Cuba. Capt Smith says tbat if men
want to see service all they havc„to
do is to get mustered into his compa

Editors Journal : After review
the subject matter of Mr. Moss’s lit
erary production I have sufficient rea
son to assert that lie has treated me
unfairly in his reply:
My last communication contained
no accusations whatever and only sug
gested that he make a public reputa
tion of those charges which have been
atloat for for some time past. Had he
only made reference to the question,,
questions presented and refrained
from injecting into his diabolical con
glomeration of insinuation and denials,
those things pertaining to moral char
acter. and other insults which he or
no other living person can verity,
would have taken no notice of the
same.
lie has written two articles previous
to the last one evidently referring to
me as his expression “Smoking your
Washington correspondent out” im
plies. I did not wish to assume the
role ot a coward so ventured a reply.
No blame can be attached to me in
anv particular as I have authority for
every statement made in regard to
Mr. Moss. I will proceed to give the
true circumstances of this affair or as
much space will permit.
He begins by barking up the wrong
stump. Applies to my lather the epi
thet ‘ whi h every one
kuows to be a slang expression appluß
to a negro. Accuses bin - '■
is "tv to this controversy. anoai.ce
his informant on that question a pu
si’lanimo nr of the first degree.
Jonas M..rtin and I wrote those
Washington lo als. Can prove by a
legitimate No. of witnesses that my
father was unconcerned in the writing
of my lasi, communication, eitb r to
advise or suggest. I wrote the a. dole j
while awav from home and the same
was never changed thereafter e tlie r
in wording or substance. All I have
ever heard my father sav about Mr.
Moss during the time when said Moss
was making repeated efforts to cause
iny removal from the Homer office.
Now Mr: Moss as my father has not
attacted you publicly you should have
the manhood to abstain from referring
to him in that manner. State* your
grievances personally, I toil from sun
to sun. Have no time to practice
writing Cor publication, but however
imperfect my style may be, I gener
paddle my own canoe.
As regards your going going to a
prominent lawyer for advice, my in
formers were T. E. Anderson and
others. They might have misunder
stood the matter as the Cos!, expressed
it to them. I rather surmise that in
•ident relative to vour maqing prep
aration to lease out Harmony Grove
postoffice to a democrat, Alvon Ap
plehy, Tim document was a bond
eh? I have no gold to offer as a re
ward for proof of dishonesty in any of
my transactions I haven’t had the
opportunities for making money in
such large quantities. In case of your
resignation as County Chairman. I
move you be promoted to the State
Chairmanship you will then have a
broader fiehl in which to manipulate-
I don’t say you sold out, but do say
that your royal highness, occupying
such an influential position should di
rect your public actions so as to be
above, suspicion.
What Mr. Dooly wrote me, you
fl .tly contradicted. He saysvou came
to with the p.oposition, six hundred
dollars, after he interviewed you on
the subject in Harmony Grove. Mr.
Doolv is well known, honored and
respected in Jackson county.
What about the Jefferson bank
proceeding, the recording of a mort
ga_e and etc in the clerk’s office?
I can furnish you with Thos. E-
Anderson’s affidavit that you offered
to aid him in securing *•’ Harmony
Grove pestaffico for ast ted turn.
Did vou not suggest to T. E. An
derson mu! Vm. E- Martin that you
three wouul be able to control the
patronage of Banks and adjoining
counties, and endeavor to make a
mutual agreement to charge a in mi—
nal fee for indorsing others for posi
tions? Tuat T. E. Anderson receive
the money and divide proporlioi.a.ly
with you? They refusing to enter
into any su ,- h agreement?
Why did you not deny those charges
to your most intimate friends about
the time of your lesignation? Evt
dently you were not expecting a
ne wspa |ier con trovers y.
Hail I endorsed Mr. Thompson for
the position, what’s dishonorable
about that? There was to republi
can aspirant, Did you not endorse a
populist? Tell uie what there is in
populism that so out shines democ
racy? If you be a true republican,
your views are as diametrically in
opposition to those of populists as
night and day, fire and water. Of
what political faith is Dunson pray?
No you did not tell me you were
going to report me to the depail
oastouxal.
Bears the Ttlß KM VoujjaiieAlways Bought
'T*
ment. You said it would he done by
some of the patrons of the offico anil
intimated y..u would not concern
yourself in the matter. Of course
I understood the purport of your
words and knew you were using an
ironical expression. Yes you tried
to remove me two different times,
also t.he present postmaster at Lula,
and pretended that you wyuld give
five hundred dollars to have the
present incumbent at Hormonj
Grove dismissed. What I ever did
to justify you in making these vigor
ous attempts I can’t tell. Why you
took steps of a like character all the
while I can’t understand, unless yon
weie confronted by the presentment
of visionary phanjoms of pecuniary
advancement. I have no ill S° f
grudge against you whatever because
of your efforts to thwart me in my
attempts. What yon did to iniure
me was yonr privi’ege. I do not
desire to villify yon or ctrculore these
reports, but its my God given, blood
bought privilege to resent insult, and
as you “Smoked me out” as you terra
it, shall do so to the last You are
100 well known already to be injured
any by the exposure of your schem
ing graspv tricks.
At the time f made application for
the Homer office did not have the
least id eft that my fateer would move
cut of that community. After my
a ii’tment cime, IkneW full well it
w< 1 tie impossible for me to devote
my whom time to the office. Mv
father being in feeble heuMi and in
terested in business and farming
needed my attention, and therefore
di v ided my time between the office
and home interests. After you came
to me in June with your threats, 1
only promised m your presence to
board in Homer and teach the sum
mer term of my school at. Silver
Shaal. You said there would be no
imp-opriety in that ns I would be
within the delivery of the office and
hade me God speed.
All the while 1 was only waiting a
favorable time to resign md as soon
as the busy season of spring set in,
I did so- It would have been impos
sible for me to have given my per
sonal attention to the office after that
time without matting a sacrifice. All
the contract ever made between
Thompson and I was made of my
own free will. Didn’t have to bind
myself by any contracts in order to
make my bond- As in your case n
wasn’t necessary for me to give mort
gage securities to my bondsmen.
Wasn’t reduced to any such straits-
The veracity of the following an
them will iu every instance prove
itselt apparent.
“Truth crushed to earth will rise
again”
Paul Hayden.
When you start out to“taekle’’ the
finytribe don’t forget to lake a bottle
of Dr. Tichenor’s Antiseptic. Nothing
equal to it fov tin wounds, fish hook
wounds bits and stings of insects and
it is no bad tiling for “snake bite ”
Remember it cures colic also while
you wait about ten minutes. Any
