What about a county fair this fall? Politics are boiling, the candidates bawl. Listen for More hpg and hominy will strengthen the backbone of our country. Cattle raising would be a prof stable business in Dooly, if some one with the capital would only give it a fair trial. Great Scott I Ge, Whiltkins! A page advertisement in that great (?) county paper has changed the course of the A. & B. railroad, Toot! Tooti! A live and prosperous town is always surrounded by a like farm,- -ing section. Therefore, it is to our advantage to help the farmers in every way we can. tied hand and foot, so to speak, by the meat packers ol the west. To a newspaper man it appears to be species of most reprehensible thoughtlessness, to say the least. "If the western packers can come to the South, as they did a few years ago, buy our scrub cattle ship them a thousand miles or more, ( fatten and return them to us as dressed beef, why cannot the people of this section market them at home and reap the golden prof it;? In refurtation it is frequently urged that the westerners have the advantage in cheip feed, especially grain. Their grain is cheaper, but the South has in its cotton seed and products n fattening feed par ex cellent. Our mild climate would more than offset any other advan tage the west may have '‘This immediate section offers a splendid location for the estab lishment ot a great stock farm. Thousands of head ot beevers could be disposed ot on the hoof every year within the radius of too miles. It would be necessary, however, in order to reap the fullest measure of success, to start the business with improved strains of cattle. i \ ith anything like a common ense business management, it is hard to see how such a business could fait to coin money. Who doubts that the man with a big pen full, of fat beeves with any thing like present prices, wouldn’t have assets of tho most available kind? “This country will never be what It should be until the people turn their attention more to the raising of meat' and provision crops.’’—Valdosta Times.

Totntuson, as he is familiarly known in this section, is one of the best ahd most efficient public men in the'slate. He made one of the best Solicitor Generals that ever faced a jury in Dooly and the people of this county and sec tion will give him a large majority in bis race for re-election. It looks now as if the people the United States will be compelled to give more of their time to the question of railroad combinations. At the presedt rate, it will not long before this will be one of the most gigantic trusts in the world The "beef trust” isn’t in it, The governor add State School commissioner’s race is pretty racy, even at long range. What would it be at abort range? - There is no telling. We might have witnessed a contest similar to the two candi dates for judgeship in neighbpring c.rcuits a few years ago. Joint driutss may be a good thing when it comes to fighting for democratic principles—but it won’t do for men seeking the .rune office. Take a walk through any of the cemeteries throughout the country and you will believe with me that fools are slowly but surely passing away. With silent tread you pair the last resting place of the individual who blew into an empty gun. The modest tomb of the hired girl who lighted fire with kerosene, and the grass-carpeted piound that covers the mortal remains of the boy who took a mule by the tail. The tail-monument of the man who didn’t know it was loaded overshadows the dug-out of the man who jumped off the car to save a ten rod walk. Side by side lay the remains ot the ethereal creature who always kept her closet laced up to the last whole and the intellectual idiot who tried to ride a bicycle miles in ten minutes. Here reposes the young doctor who took a dose of his own medi cine and the old fool who married a young wife. Right over yonder in the north west corner, where the gentle breezes sigh through, the weeping willow that bends over his lowly bed, lie* the poor misguided young ster that told his mother-iu-law she lied. Down there in the potter’s field with his feet sticking to the rude blasts of winter snd blistering rays of summer’s sun is stretched all earthly remains of the misguided regulator who tried to liclr the editor, while the broken bones of the man who wouldn’t pay for bis paper are' piled up in a corner. Near by, his grave unmarked, reposes the mouidei ing dust of the one-horse editor who tried to run a P. P. paper in a first-class town where there was an up-to-date paper. Over by the entrance reposes the boy who wen( in swimming too early in the season, and the old ady who kepi her stryachnine and baking powder aide by side in the cupboard. Right there in the path, directly in front of the entrance, obstruct ing tbe way, is the grave of the m'icrobe-kiUer who rushed himself inside and out vArith anteseptic solution until hia agonies were cut short by acute softening of the bruin. The Iqol-ailler gathers them in one by one, and by and by we will hnve a pretty decent world to live in. T. H. GREGORY, (JNADILLH. « GEORGIA, DEALER IN General 4. Merchandise.

The News does not take ’ favor ably onto the idea of* abrogating the rotation system of selecting senators. We believe that the ro tation system is tbe best and most satisfactory to the great majority of the people of the district. Of course, it does not suit a few anx ious political acbemers, who do not have the opportunity of tbe advancement of themselves or their schemes as fast as they desire. But this is not a thing so insignificant as to be changed to suit such flimsy whims, and neither do we believe that tbe people of this senatorial district ore so blind as to their rights in the matter as to sit down quietly andjlet the matter be settled to tbe taste of a few political tricksters.
