An item of new^ will always be

tborongh news servioe, so far as it is
possible for a weakly paper to do.
We shall enlarge the paper daring
the Fall in consequence of onr in
creased advertising patronage. We
are counting on the co-operation of

Assistant Postmaster W. T. Craw
ford, of Cairo, was over Monday to
seethe game of ball between his
town and a nine from Bainbridge,
and he was much rejoiced over their
victory. Mr. Crawford has been in

no doubt remain with the depart
ment so long as he may desire. He
is a son of Mr. John B. Crawford, of
Cairo.
Our local authorities should begin
a crusade against the vagrant, and
wage nnoeasing war till this class
shall be driven either to work or
beyond the oonfines of the county.
In either event the results wsuid be
satisfactory to our people. An idle
vagrant class stands for debauch,
theiving, crime and lawlessness in
general. What we now want is for
the laws passed by the recent legis
lature to be enforced against this
class whioh ls^t menace to any local
government.
We understand that Dr. I. H.
Hunter baa removed from Climax to
Chattahooohee, Fla., where, he will

The doctor located in Climax some
months ago, and during his stay
there was wedded to Miss English,
one of the fairest young ladies of
the place. He has decided to remove
to Chattahoochee, Fla., considering
that he will have a larger practice
at the latter place. He is a thor
ough graduate in his profession and
will likely do well where be will be
looated in the futnre. He is a son
of Dr. Hunter, one of the leading
physicians and business men ot Col
quitt, Ga.
From Climax.

with her aunt, Mrs. W. E. Powell,
left last Saturday for Fowltown,
where she will visit her sister,
Mrs. J. C. Griffin, and later she
will visit the springs before re
turning to her home in Bainbridge.
Evangelist Morrell, of the Meth
odist church, is holding protracted
services here, and it is greatly to
be desired that people will see the
error of their ways. What is gen
uine religion anyway ? Is it the
findjng fault with everybody and
everything and loving gossip so
dearly that one is led to glaring
misrepresentations, so glaring in
deed that people who are said to
have been born on wash day with
soap suds instead of gray matter
can spot it without hunting for it.
Is genuine religion carried in the
same heart with malice, envy and
slander? Does genuine religion
gather-her skirts aside from con
tact w!*h those who have had less
protection from the wiles of the
evil one, or is she fulljof compas
sion for the unfortunate and try
ing to protect and reclaim ? Does
true religion parade virtues (?) ten
days in the year and vices three
hundred and fifty-five? Truly
consistency is a priceless jewel.
The hit dog is invariably tb. one
you hear from. Listen ! .
