TO ORGANIZE A BOARD OT IRADE.
On the front page of this issue is
found a call for a Business Men’s
Mass Meeting at the City Hall Fri

The purpose of the meeting is to

Nothing succeeds like success,

Also read what “Tyrant” has to
say in regard to a Greater Winder.
Amopgthose who heartily indorse
this move and are interesting them
selves in pushing the matter, we

Millsaps, 11. I’. Stanton, Geo. W.
Woodruff, J. T. Strange, W. C.
Horton and W. T. Robinson.
Because he didn’t believe the war
was over, a New Hamshire woman
is slicing her husband for divorce.
And now to add to tin* hardships
of the rural mail carriers, I’ncle
Sam has issued orders forbidding to
shoot rabbits while on duty.
And now Tom Watson is talking
of a daily paper with headquarters
in Atlanta. Well, we would like
to see a Daily Jeffersonian.
The Atlanta spirit must In- some
thing fierce. Two of her preachers
recently engaged in a rough and
tumble, knock down and drag-out
fight.
The Bartow Tribune is the latest
addition to our exchange list. It
is neatly printed and well edited.
F. Callahan and C. A. Perry are
at the steering wheel.
The Augusta Herald nays Gov
ernor Brown’s administration is
noted for what it has not done.
■That's good. Keep it up, governor.
KVtton is still hanging around loc-
JSeab Wright for governor* Muse
right ftr congress and that
nephew Wright for the legislature
observes an exchange. In such an
event it is more than probable
neither one would prove to be right
when the votes were counted.
The Atlanta Journal insists that
the state pays her old soldiers their
pensions in advance. In advance
of what? We thought the services
for which these old heroes are re
membered were rendered back in
the sixties.
Little Joe Brown just keeps on
being governor, refusing to be wor
ried by the political stabs of The
Atlanta Journal. He says that on
June 4, 1908, the people of Georgia
ordered him not to report to The
Journal, and he may

Did You Ever Make S2OO Per Month?
■* ' ;|
IF YOU HAVE the ability to sell twenty lets, on easy
terms, in one month for us, that’s just what we will
pay you.
Now, think it over and see if you can get busy and
make yourself <5200.00 in thirty days, and if you know you
can, come in, sign contract and go to work. It may not
take you a month. The property is the prettiest and best
located in the growing city of Statham.
the m. j. tucker property. ■
The lots vary in price from SSO to S2OO. Terms : $25
down and the balance in 20 monthly payments (or in two
deferred payments, Fall of 1910 and 1911). Say a lot is
$lO0 —$25 down and $3.75 per month for 20 months, 8 per
cent. Nearly anybody can buy one of these lots on terms
given. Suppose you can’t quite complete your work in
one month—say it takes you two months, then you make
SIOO per month. That’s pretty good, eh? Better than
sitting around. Don’t matter where you live. Splendid
plats furnished, showing the property. Now, if you want ,
to put yourself to work on a certainty, come right along.

J. c. Bedingtield is the incumbent.
An unheard of condition exists
in Franklin county. Col. George
Goode and his father, Rev. J. F.
Goode, are both being urged to make
the race for the legislature. If
father and son both get in the game,
we shall go over and see the fur fly.
Dr. J. W. Smith, of Mountain
district, Walton county, has an
nounced for the senate, and in all
probability will be opposed by

hot times in Walton.
The Atlanta Georgian stages that
if Gov. Joseph Brown runs for a

The Winder News mentions the
name of Mr. R. L Carithers for the

man. Then how would it sound to

son? Captain C. C. Nickelson, as
he is known by his more intimate
friends is one of Jackson’s cleanest
men and is a may of sound reason
ing ability. —Statham News.

and has’t been seen since, hut the
grip remained. —Dahlonega Nugg^
