The republican meeting held in
Dahlonega last Saturday was
strickly a lilly white assembly.
Not a single colored person ap
peared, and really, it was a small
gatheringy anway. As stated last
week, the republicans are getting
tired of negro office holders forced
on the people of the south. One
prominent republican is so much
opposed to it that ho told us that
he wouldn’t ask a negro even to
vote for him and didn’t care to go
to the convention in Atlanta where
negroes enjoy the same privileges
as white delegates.

It is estimated that at least
$350,000,000 in cash has been put

this year by the rise in the price of
cotton.
Mr. John Jarrard’s child, which
was burned to death 111 Hall
county at least a month ago, was
reported by some of the daily
newspaper correspondents last
week as “having occurred yestor- j
day.”
A Gainesville negro, Jesse Pool,
went to church in that city a few
Sundays ago, 'well cocked and
primed. The result was live cases
made against him, toswit: Dis
turbing divine worship’, carrying
concealed weapons; carrying pis
tol to place of worship; carrying
and having liquor at place of wor
ship; being drunk at place of wor
ship. He was fined $00 in two
cases, the balance being settled on
payment of costs, which amounted
i to something liko twice the tines.
A dispatch from New York says

democratic primary held in

At Columbus, Ga., last week at
a special term of court, Will Hut
son, a negro, was sentenced to 20
years in the penitentiary. Tho
week previous he attempted to
criminally assault the little twolve-
yoar-old girl of Mr. Burton while
she was returning from school. For
this charge he entered a plea
of guilty and was given the full
extent of the law. While they
were escorting the negro back to.
jail by 25 officers armed wiih Win
chesters, Mr. Burton attempted to
break through the guard and kill
tho negro. It took four policemen
to handle him. Mr. Burton no
doubt had the sympathy of every
officer but they had to save the nes
groes life. The militia was called
out till the negro could be jiut on
tho train for Atlanta.
As we have stated heretofore,
none but democrats should be al
lowed to participate in the next
democratic primary. Tho repub
licans don’t permit anyone but
men of their “faith ami ordbr” to
take any hand in their meetings,
and the democrats ought not to.
In other words, there should lie no
middle men. The time has come
when every man should be on one
side or the other—not be allowed to
play shut mouth till they get hung
ry for office and then claim to be
democrats just beforo the primary.
There are too many men in this
county like the guineas. You
can’t toll the hen from the rooster
till cackling time comes. Neither
can you tell whether some of these
fellows are democrats or republi
cans until a while before the dem
ocratic primary and they think
maybe they can slip in on the
strongest side and get an office.
Mr. J. A. Howard says he is

Eight months ago I was bo ill
that I was compelled to lie or sit
down nearly all the time. My
stomach was so weak and upset
that I could keep nothing on it
and I vomited frequently. I
could not urinate without great
pain and I coughed so much that
my throat and lungs were raw
and sore. Tho doctors pro
nounced it Bright’s disease and
others said it was consumption.
It mattered little to mo what
they called it and I had no de
sire to live. A sister visited me
from St. Louis and asked me if
I had ever tried Wine of Cardui.
I told her I had not and she
bought a bottle. I believe that
it saved my life. I believe many
women could save much Buffer
ing if they but knew of its value.
I)on’t you want freedom from
pain? Take Wine of Cardui
and make one supremo effort to
be well. You do not need to be
a weak, helpless sufferer. You
can have a woman's health and
do a woman’s work in life. Why
not secure a bottle of Wine of
Cardui from your druggist to
day?
