CONCERNING OUR CONTEMPORARY. A contemporary of ours declares with much gusto that local news- papers should mould and make public sentiment, and be not eter nally tagging after sentiment. We -opine that he has been moulding and making the public sentiment of Bainbridge long enough to know all about it (?) We “felici- tate” ourselves however over the fact that if we tag after public sentiment, we may at least have the choosing as to whose mark and brand we shall wear. We have never yet played in our con temporary's back yard; preferring rather to mould our own senti ments on all questions at issue— just as every American citizen should do. The safety of this republic depends not so much upon “great guns”—of our con temporary’s caliber—but on inde| pendence and thought, ’fhis paper may not have a “confrere” (what ever that means) but we shall go it alone, always preferring to pro mote peace rather than strife in all local affairs. Tillman Acquitted. After being out 20 hours, the jury in the trial of Jas. Tillman re turned a verdict of not guilty. Tillman has been released, and a great demonstration followed the announcement of the verdict. The press of the country declare the elease of Tillman as a remarks- e triumph of passionless justice. IN PLAIN ENGLISH. There’s a distinct difference be tween “convictions” and “convul sions,” our sunny friend of the Ar gus seems to have contracted a se vere case of the latter malady. We would suggest a diet of “Force” for breakfast, dinner and supper and frequent applications of wet towels and sponges to his temples. White wings now float above our contemporary’s office. We take it to mean peace. Tallahassee Schedules Resumed. Mr. W. M. Legg, the progres sive general manager of the Geor gia, Florida and Alabama railway, announces that double daily pas senger trains have been resumed to Tallahassee, and that the track and roadbed are In better shape than ever, a great deal of work having been put on them for the past few weeks. It will be remembered that the recent flood was exceeding disas trous to this road south of Bain- bridge, doing great damage, espe cially at Lake Jackson, a few miles this side of Tallahassee. The resumption of the old schedule will be good news to the traveling public who have experienced much inconvenience on account of the suspension of the trains for re pairs. Mr, Legg states that his road is expecting and preparing to handle a big travel to the Georgia State Fair, which is to be held at Macon beginning October 21st. Through coaches will be operated over the G. F. & A. and the Central to Macon, thus relieving its many potrons of the disagreeable feat ures attendant upon a change of cars. This enterprise of the road will tend to greatly increase the j travel. Brinson Briefs. T. H. Tucker and family left Sun day for Attapulgus on a visit of a few days. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Murphy went oyer to Bainbridge one day this week on a shopping trip. H. B. Brockett of Bainbridge, was over one day this week on business. He returned to town the same day. A number of our young people went over to Iron City last Sunday to attend the Clarke-Donalson mar riage. Rev. J. I. D. Miller preached at the Baptist church last Sunday and Sunday night to larffe and apprecia tive audiences. Work on the new school house is rapidly progressing but it is not thought that there will be any school held earlier than Jan., 1st, Miss Fannie E'ranklin who is again •n charge of the public school at Bethel spent Saturday and Sunday in Brinson with friends. S, J. Warren has just returned from an important business trip to Florida where he owns a large body of pine timber. He went down to close out a sale, but we understand that he did not do so. The extreme dry weather, while good on cotton, certainly has done great injury to potato and sugar cane eropB. We hope the drougth will soon be broken. After all the talk J. Pierpont Morgan didn’t show up, and con sequently the curiosity of the many concerning the real motive ! of his visit remains unsatisfied. With a Bohemian colony desirin' to settle in Georgia, and Sir Thomas Lipton contemplating ihe purchase of an extensive planta tion in our state, all speculation regarding J. Pierpont’s intentions can be readily pardoned. IF YOU LOVE MUSIC By the best talent in America, buy an Edison PHONOGRAPH together with Edi son Records ....
