SUIiSCR I PTION KATES One Year, - - - SI.OO Six Months, - - - 50 Three Months, - - -5 Thursday, September 10,1908. A RECENT DISCOVERY. It has Imtij demonstrated us a scientific fact that an overdone of crow, followed by a dessert of sour {'rapes will transform swell-headed blow-hards into little, contemptible snivclings which continually emit idiotic sputtcrings of the imagina tion- Every man woman and child in (Georgia is aware of the fact that Joe Brown never made a speech in his life, but the Atlanta Journal is still sick, very sick, and under the spell of a recent brain storm dished out the following self-man ufactured and made-to-order rumor ; tis a matter of news to its'readers: i It was rumored in Atlanta Mon day, on what should I>* considered .excellent authority, that Joseph M. Brown, Democratic nominee for governor, will stump the state in the interest of the party in both .state and national campaigns. .‘ Thursday or Friday, the rumor ' said, Mf. B v >wu will start on a tour of (ieorgia,.speaking intermit tently at places which could not be i definitely forecasted. “It was stak'd in connection with the rumor that this is due in con-1 •aideruble measure to some com plaint that has been expressed in various quarters that Mr. Brown is 1 not taking a sulliciently prominent | place in the party’s tight. “An attempt to confirm tin* vu- 1 mor developed nothing among Mr. Brown’s friends except surprise and the conjecture that there was no foundation to it. Those who would lie able to speak definitely in the matter could not be reach ed.” Then in a displayed editorial The Journal proceeds to give a hatch of letters from a few sore-heads, pos sibly written for no other purpose tlmn to give that paper an oppor tunity to continue its disgusting tight on Joe Brown while profess ing to be loyal to party policy. After violating the statement on two counts in the same editorial from which it is clipped, the editor concludes: “ vVe entered the primary iu * • • 11. Austin. good faith. We intend to abide by | the result in letter and in spirit, and so far as we can influence oth -1 its, will seek to persuade them to do likewise.” If The Journal will violate the ! “spirit of the result” and “lend its influence” to bolters at the same time it asserts loyalty, should we l>e surprised if it forgets the “letter” in October? Wc feel confident that the above i sentence would never have been written were the sore-heads and bolters numerous enough to stand a shadow of a chance to defeat the nominee of the primary. Such not being the ease, however, The Jour nal is on the hand wagon having silly bnun storms. CHASING THE RAINBOW. The daughter of Senator Elkins, of West Virginia, is to marry soon a Dago by the name of Abruzzi. The antics of the sons and daugh ters of wealthy Americans in their | search for happiness is pitiful to : behold. Surrounded by every com fort that this life affords, the Amer ican heiress endeavors to appease the mate longing of the soul for happiness and contentment bv searching among the empty titles of foreign lands for a husband, there t<> eke out a miserable existence j unequally yoked to a jabbering, | jesticulating royal spendthrift, de void of character and training as measured by American standards. And the boys. How many mil ! lionaire sons have wrecked their young lives by sailing around the bright lights of debauchery only to land in the seething cesspool of scandal? Verily their search for satisfied existence on this earth is pitiful as well as fruitless. The happiest mortal we ever knew was a sainted uncle who loved his home and native land above all , else earthly, and with an abiding faith in his Redeemer and a sancti- 1 tied smile would slap his hands! with j>\v as he gave praises to his: Father in “glory land.” 4 Wealth and titles may lx* the greatest worldly joys, but for hap- j peness and contentment seek salva-: tion. An exchange intimates that the small vote garnered by Yancey is likely to spoil old m.jn Darter s oat record. I The Gainesville Herald published a paragraph this week which was not a boost for the town nor a josh at i Editor Bacon, of the Madisonian. Fillers will creep in on the editorial 1 page some times. The $2,000 per day expense to the state is still in session. The house and senate have had four t “dog-falls,” and are no nearer a solution of the convict question than when the extra session was called. NO SIGH CONDITION HERE. The Advertiser lias received sev eral letters lately from parties from a distance wanting to get sample copies of the paper “to see what business there is.” - They won’t see much. Our merchants and most of our other business men have not waked up to newspaper advertising. Om gentleman wrote: “From lack of advertising in the paper there is not the business in your town I thought, so 1 will not investigate in that section further.” —Clarks- ville Advertiser. The same tiling could lie said about our town, for you could never tell how many stores we have here by looking at our paper. We try hard to give the patrons of our paper all the news of the town and county, and would appreciate a little advertising from our home merchants. It would certainly help them and the town, too, in many ways. —( herokee Advance. The advertising columns of the local paper is the barometer of a town’s Easiness enterprise. Take a | look at any issue of The Winder News and it will be observed that the columns are liberally, used by our local merchants. Through their untiring efforts the merchants have brought the citizens of this com munity to realize that it is to the interest of all to trade at home, and this policy has resulted in the establishment of up-to-date firms which send their representatives di rect to the eastern markets to buy goods at a cost which enables them :to compete with any prices quoted in Georgia, and land in the liegh borhood which could have been i purchased a few years ago for ten | and twelve dollars per acre with no takers is now quoted at S4O and ' SSO per aere. Therefore it is not necessary for The Winder News to accept con tracts with cheap patent medicine fakirs nor use the names of foreign firms in an attempt to send our subscribers abroad to trade, but each issue is calling them this way, where they can purchase anything from a paper of pins to an automo bile at reasonable prices. True, we have had some mer chants who failed to advertise, but by strict observation they have Iveu convinced that it pays. The newspaper located in a com munity where none of the mer cliants advertise u unfortunate in deed. JVI£ AND MY N)LKS. I Tin* Crandall correspondent of] The Murray, Ga., News writes to I that paper as follows: “Leach Aly called on his best! girl Sunday afternoon. “Mr. Ben Aly spent Sunday at Sumach. ‘‘ M iss ()ra Aly went to Chatsworth one day last week. “Mr. Leach Aly made a business trip to Dalton one day last week. “Miss Lizzie Aly was out walk ing one evening last week. “Miss Lizzie Aly spent Sunday night with Miss Ora Aly. “ Bcr. Aly has accepted a position with tl e L. and X. railroad. “Mis Ora Aly called on Mrs. Jeff Wood one night last week. “George Aly made a trip to Two Car Loads of Studebaker Wagons We do not have to tell you that the Studebaker Wagon is the best on the market. Won have seen them and you know fur yourself that it is The Best Wagon Made. Every man who buys a Studebaker Wagon is pleased with it. It runs light and is made of dry timber, and many of them run twelve years without a loose tire. THE STUDEBAKER i is the best, and the best is none too good. Come to us for the best wagon sold. Yours foi Business, WOODRUFF HARDWARE & MANUFACTURING CO., Winder, Ga. j Chatsworth last week. # “Alfred Johnson and wife visited Mr. and Mrs. George Aly one day ; last week. “Grandma Aly made a trip to Cisco one day last week “Mr- and Mrs. .J. F. Wood have moved from the restaurant back to their father’s, Mr. George Aly. Constitution. We gather from the above that the family of Mr. and Mrs. George Aly is composed of three daughters and two sons, Ora Aly being the (laughter of the oldest son, two of j the girls having also married, one to Alfred Johnson and another to Jeff Wood. Ben and Lizzie are still ■ single and the old grandmother makes her home with the family. We are of the opinion that Lizzie ' Aly wrote the items, and were we editor of The Murray News we would discontinue her paper and stationery for being so careless as to overlook the dog and Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Johnson's baby. We clip the above for analysis in pref erance to digging in our waste bas ket for an example, for the reason that there is no likelihood of any member of the family being a sub scriber to The Winder News.
