Good 6-room house, on Weigh
St. Apply to Flanigan and Flani
ism to be placed upon beautiful Tallulah Falls. Slie believes
it is almost sacrilegious to so desecrate the handiwork of the
Creator, and of course the little nugget is sincere. She was
ever thus. Far be it from her to seek the vulgar glare of
publicity. Only recently her tender heart was made to
bleed copiously over the dire distress of a Federal reprobate.
But as we said before, Helen is peeved, and it is now
probable that the supreme court of the state will be called
upon to assist Col. li. H. Dean, of Gainesville, in “the
Taming of The Shrew*’. The advance of civilization and
the conservation of Georgia’s resources have encroached upon
the mountain playhouse of the one who, all along, has over
estimated the position that Mendelsshon’s wedding march
gave her in the hearts of chivalrous Georgians. The queen
of the mountains is having intermittent spasms of tears and
rage because, as she claims, the cruel railroad trust has
swooped down upon her and caused a democratic administra
tion to appoint a deserving democratic widow as postmaster
at Gainesville, Ga., thereby removing Mrs. Longstreet from
office. Of course such an outrage is not to be tolerated in
Georgia for a moment. This federal plum was tendered to
Helen by Teddy, and that which Teddy does stands forever.
So she is in Washington giving out interviews detrimental
to the state of Georgia, and proclaiming that if the supreme
court of Georgia does not decide the Tallulah Falls case in
her favor, there is “a state for sale.” Oil, dear Helen, be
reasonable. Do not sell us on the block.
Our readers may think these lines rather personal.
Well, they are. We are dealing with the personal
whims of a willful woman riding on the waves of an adopted
influence.
As for the preservation of the scenery at Tallulah Falls,
the work being done there detracts very little, if any, from
the natural beauty of that picturesque spot.
The great God of the universe sent man from the gar
den of Eden with the stern injunction “Thou shalt earn thy
bread by the sweat of thy brow.” It was then that the
march of civilization began and all humanity has obeyed the
edict save the savage and the indolent.
The natural resources have been placed on earth that
we may carry out that injunction and we should conserve
them to our best advantage. Had the Maker intended that
we should rest ‘neatli the shade of the trees besides the gush
ing waterfalls, He would have left us in our robes of fig-leaves
in Eden. But it was not so decreed, and the daisies and the
buttercups topple in front of the plowshares of the descend
ants of Cain. Thriving cities have been builded upon Na
ture’s rugged beauty spots, and man has harnessed the wa
terfalls and sent their quivering energy thru strands of cop
per to do his bidding.
And the water power at beautiful Tallulah is destined
to send electricity humming throughout North Georgia,
turning the wheels of progress and lighting small towns
along the way.
On with the march. The hot-house roses and pansies
are just as beautiful and fragrant as are the wild flowers
blossoming amid the tangled vines in the jungles. So why
preserve the jungles that lions and monkeys may view them?
Beats the Dinky.
Mr. J, Woot feheats, Winder's
guano expert and occasional cotton
buyer had occassion to visit Mul
berry Wednesday. Going up he
boarded a train on the narrow
gauge. He says it took him just
one hour and twenty minuts to
make it behind a dinky. So he
decided life was much too short to
waste time waiting for the down
train and set out to walk to \\ in
der, making the trip in one hour
and fifteen minutes, five minutes
less than it took the dinky to make
the six miles.
Wheat and Fine Oats
Wheat and oats are fine in this
section of the state, the finest in
years, is the report coming into
Winder. J. M. Poole, whose farm
lies just outside the city limits,
brought to The News office a tine
specimen of wheat, sample of a
field he had just had cut.
The stalks were about four feet
high after being cut and nicely fill
ed out with large grains.
