■ ■ THEUSP OF SLANO.
.One of the crying sins of the age
is the very general and promisen-
ons use of slang words and phrases,
by young persons St both sexes.
In fact, the evil is not oonfined to
young people alone, bat is used
by their elders also, who should
set a better example. Even when
it comes from masculine lips,
slang phrase is anything but ele
gant. From a woman ft is simply
disgusting. Many times young
girls are thoughtless, and use such
language they bear it from others.
But, don’t use it, girls. True,
A .new play entitled, “Race Sni-
oidd, or the President’s Mistake”
has been brought out. It is al
leged to he a comedy, but we re
serve the rights to entertain doubts
Hoke Smith may not be the
“real reforhier’’ in tho eyes of
Dupont Guorry, Joe Hill Hall aiid
Sidney Tapp; but he is the ablest
and strongest candidate in the
state to fight against Clark Howell.
Count the market price of “the
poor farmer’s” lnad, figure out
the value of the stook, put in
his bank account and you will find
the average farmer isVorth a good
deal more than theaverage town
man.
The faot that the Ciar has
10,000,000 invested in this coun
try furnishet adequate reasou that
he would bo well received into our
best society should he find to his
advantage to sojourn a while
with us.
It would be a sad disappoint
ment to Rev. Small, should the
Rruutwick Journal directors de
cide to use the paper’s iufluence
> for some other candidate than
Clark HoweU, We that
pfesenl editor would chauge
olimate.
Editor Tom Loyless, of the Au
gusta Cbrouicle, took a dip in the
aurf at Savannah Sunday. The
gubernatorial campaign will now
receive a few hot ones from this
brilliant paragrapher, who has no
superior in Georgia. Lst ’em
come. 8
Where were some of these “real
reformers” that ars candidates
for governor now daring the Ter-
rell-Guerry-Kstill campaign? It
is charged that one of the present
candidates waa a strong supporter
of the candidate who was cl
. up with being rhn Ay the cot
and whiskey influence of the state
terial to wage a hot campaign on
daring the one approaching.
is sometimes expressive, but trite,
or slang expressions are not in
good taste, in any conversation,
nor do they add to the strengh of
a written article. To a woman of
cnlturo and refinement, such ex
pressions are abhorent, and they
at once stamp the person using
them ks wanting in good taste, to
say the least. The use of slang is
an offanse against good manners,
apd should be relentlessly frowned
upon by parents who have the*
good pf tbeir daughters at heart
Not long ago I was waiting on a
corner, for a street car. A very
pretty young girl stood near me,
who attracted my attention by the
excellent taste in which she was
dressed. Her dark skirt, with
shirt waist and Eaton jacket to
match, called for more than one
admiring glance, and gloves, shoes
and bat, all charming of their
kind, also came in for their share
of admiration. But the spell was
broken when the pretty lips open
ed to say: “There must be some
thing rotten about the way these
cars are run.", We- had been
waiting nearly five minutes.
Again the speaker asserted that
“it waB something fierce to wait
so long,” etc., but my interest in
her had vanished.
At auother time 1 heard a young
man say; of just such agiti, “Yes,
she is Very pretty, until'sho opens
her mouth,” And this Records
with my own ideas; no girl is at
tractive whb defiles her mouth
with slang talk.
Hon. Hoke Smith-recently an-
Sam Small’s' Brunswiok Jour
nal is evidently the official organ
for the new county promoters over
the entire state. It has published
a map and all the “good reasons”
why some oountiea ought to be
created in Georgia through its
columns and we suppose the bal
ance are to follow. Crisp county
has been overlooked up to the
presont if wo are not mistaken.
The fund in our neighbor city
must be running low.
The Ladies Home Journal is
offering $600 for a new pattern for
a shirt waist—one that looks well
on the streets and so looso and
easy that a woman can knoud
bread in it. We suggest the style
tho Fairbanks twins wear, au<l if
we win, the $600 goes to an editoP
who needs bread with his boots on,
and if things don’t change he’ll
flood broad without a darned
tiling oil, -
Kansas prohibitionists propose
to nominate Governor Hoch for
president in 190§, and compel the
republicans to endorse him. That
sounds like an easy way out of a
big oontest, but it promises to
be somewhat complicated before
it is alb over.
ubjio
douhlyT lfr. Smith’H organ 1ms
been proclaiming that Morgan
county .is wild with enthusiasm
over the candidacy of that gentle
man, because of his reform prin
ciples.
As every one knowg, the delight
ful town of Madison is* in the
county -of Morgpn. Vhe Advertiser
is a popular and influential news
paper in Madison.
In this week’s issue of the Ad
vertiser, that paper'stated that
Mr. Smith’s candidacy it based
upon the proposition bf “reform.”
The Advertiser says: “Now the
qmstioti is, will Mr. Smith’s re
cord bear the search light of truth
along these lines?’
The Advertiser then proceeds to
remark as follows:
When did Mr. Smith bloom
out as a full fledged reformer -*has
his past life been in keeping with
these reform measures that he is
now advocating so strongly, and
upon which he bases his main
chance to carry him into the gov
ernor’s chair? Stick a pin right
here and remember it; Hoke
Smith was never known to advo
cate any of the above reform ideas
until Clark Howell announced fur
governor of Georgia. The same
reform measures were used against
Governor Terrell three years ago,
and at that time Mr. Smith, who
was leader of the Terrell delega'
tion from Fulton county, laughed
ut and ridiculed the idia of their
existence in the state; and yet to
day his voice is raised aloud in
the land proclaiming the life of
the very thing he ridiculed three
years ago, and the state of affairs
was wofse then than now. It
seems to us that Mr. ^mith
using thU reform scare crow more
to catch votes than for any real
belief he entertains as to the ex
istence of this harmful influence
in this state.”
If all tho men, women and chil
(Iron in Morgan county are for
Mr. Smith, as Mr. Smith’s organ
would have Georgian’s believe,
the Advertiser is very daring to
take the bold stand which it dors
The Advertiser says further:
“Mr. Smith wants your vote
and in order to get it he is prac
ticing the calamity howling act to
perfection. He won’t tell you
that these corporations aro fast
losing their influence in Georgia,
that'lobbyism, is on the wane and
fading .rapidly. That the last
Georgia legislature . passed the
franchise tax bill, which was the
death blow to corporation domi
nation, anct that Clark Howell,
whom he lmtes above all other
men, was the power that caused
its passage.
We have heard this cry of re
form before pud yet this paper
belieyes that Georgia is the best
state and the best governed state
iu the Union.
“So much for the reform buga
boo.”
Tho abovo are only extracts
from the Advertiser’s editorial.
It said a great deal more on the
same line.
Here’s one more forget-me-not
from the Advertiser’s hot house:
When Hon. Hoke Smith speaks
in Madison June 29tb, he will re
ceive a hearty, genuine', Morgan
county welcome. There will be
the best of good feeling, and - he
will never know hot what every
man, woman and child in the'vast
throng who will greet him are all
8mttb supporters until after the
primary of 1000.”

. A'Card of Ajfjjreciat
t Jiaa beeij a pleasure to me to
bold* the'meat-responsible position
my^rjs^ coulfLh^ve given me
It is an hdiior for a young man to
be proud of—to be intrusted with
the educational system- of his na
tive home.- To say I sincerely ap
preciate the confidence thus shown
would be putting it in too mild
terms.
On retiring* I want to say that
as Superintendent of the Public
Schools I have done what • I
thought to be ipy duty.' I was
determined from the beginning to
di»cipline,tlio school and handle
thepourteof study'as I thought
best, In doing thisT did not ex
pect to ride on downy bed# of ease,
for the only perfect man that ever
lived wa> burdened under a crovra
of thorngjind crucified on a cruel
cross. No piano or musical in
strument will produce those sweet
vibrations of • harmony unless
tuned slightly imperfect. A per
fect instrument is too mechanical;
to please the imperfect- ear. No
man is perfect, aud in fingering
his runs over the strings of an ed-
ucationa system he is .liable to
strike the wrong note occasionally.
I am sure there have beep errors
made during my connection with
the school, but I cannot recall one
instance but that was for the good
of the school.
To those who have tried to help
me better the School and place it
ou a higher staudard let me say I
thank you siuoorsly qhd trust you
will give, my successor the same
hearty co-operation,
The Board of Education,. I am
glad to say, haa always shown me
every favor-and has upheld me in
every point vital to the school’s
interest. I appreciate your co
operation and trust our school will
be still more successful. I hope
to see the time wheu the High
School will be run ou the deport-
mental plan and give the teachers
the opportunity to do the most
effective work. By hard tjork we
arrnnged tho course of study so
that our graduates may enter the
Stuto University and female col
legos without examination.
My greatest interest lies yi the
boys and the girls. It seems that I
feel closer to them each year. No
one enjoys their sweet “good
morning” moro than I. And I
am glad they always sue mo and
’Jjgivo mo pleasant opportunity of
speaking to them. My card would
he incomplete without thanking
them for their hearty cooperation
anti their willingness to .comply
with my wishes. If I can ever
aid a worthy pupil iu ony way it
will bo a pleasure for me to do so.

preciation to my friends, I re
