The county claims to be busted, so busted that they can’t muster up enough money to hold an adjourned term of superior court. Judge Bland was petitioned to postpone or rather call of!' the adjourn term of court set for this week in banks for the reason that the eounty was not financially able to stand the expense of court. The paupeis home has also been sold to be applied on the indebtedness of the county. This is indeed an un fortunate situation for this good country. The county should pros per with the riwt of the world and will no doubt get back on her feet again when it has time to take a second hold.— Lavonia Times. It is said that a petition was cir culatrsl recently, signed by many prominent men of Hanks County, to have the county abolished, giv ing parts to Madison, Franklin, and Habersham. It hasn’t tieen so very long since Banks Superior Court would ad jo urn about the second day for lack of business. The Carr Hoy* 1 litigation seems to have come like a tidal wave, eiigulling the eounty. Besides, the county owes about #30,000 on road machinery.— Gainesville Fugle. Tax Collectors Notice.
