Sunday School Anniversary.
The missionary anniversary of the
Methodic Sunday School, which was
postponed from Sunday night, the 7th,
came off last Sunday evening r.t the
Methodist church—the notice in the
Times-Enterprise that Dr. Hinton
would preach on that even . g, and
which was written and handed in by
the Dr. himseif, to the contrary not
withstanding. Owing to the extreme
tnclemency of the weather a number of
the recitations and songs had to be
omitted, iho children not being able to
attend. The programme was a.-, ai-
■raetive one and proved highly int. 1-
csting to the large number present.
One of the features of the evening was
the report of special workers. One

Mr. Editor:
I know that our worthy Mayor

finishing our .boulevnrd, but I wish to
ask it they camnot spare a small force
for a few <lavs to clear our streets.
The streets in many places have more
trash la them, than at anytime for
several years, and preseut a very un
inviting aspect. They ueed the scav
enger cart badly, and I hope will
not have to wait until after the holi
days. ” Citizen.

Gordon ant) tho Alliance-
The fact that Senator Gordon has
joint'd tho Alliance should convince
everyone that he is iu lull sympathy
with the farmers iu their cause.
Had he joined the order at
earlier day, before his election, the
charge that; im was doing so through
policy and to further hia political
cuds might have been made against
hint. But to do so’ now, after lie is
elected, when lie lias llio office for six
years and lias no favor to ask of the
alliauce, shows that ho lias joined the
farmers’ o^anization and cast liis lot
with them simply and solely because
he believes in their cause and is will
ing to do wbat I10 can towards bring
ing the relief they desire.
Senator Gordou has asserted all
along that ho was as good a friend to
the farmers ns any matt ill Gco-gia.
His action in joining than now when
ho has nothing to gain by > doing
