ATTENTION.
I hereby call a mass meeting of the
Democracy of Butts county to be held
at Jackson on the Ist Tuesday in July,
to appoint delegates to the State Con
vention to he held in Atlanta on the
19th of July, to nominate a caduidate
for Governor, and State house officers,
and a candidate for Congress for the
State at large, and furthermore to ap
point an Executive Committee for the
county.

Whoopee ! said we, as Max Land
stepped into the office with a basket of
nice vegetables ; those are the “ goliy
whoppingist” beets we ever saw, and
beans and unions to correspond. But
we need not have been surprised when
it was known that they were raised by
a South Georgia gentleman, who, if
there is anything he does understand
it is how to raise fine vegetables. We
would advise unsuccessful gardeners
to interview Mr. and Mrs. Henry Land
on the subject of conducting a truck
farm. Accept our thanks.
XBrother Smith denies ever being a
candidate for the Legislatuae. Since
the fact has been mentioned, it seems
to be as fresh in the memory of our
people as though it was hut a short
time ago. Put on yourstuddying cap,
Bother Smith, and repine awhile "in
your “sanctum sanctorum,” and see
if you can’t refresh your memory on
the subject—about the time you crea
ted quite a sensation among your im
mediate friends, and was ostracised by
your people for your (at that time) in
dependent political views. Don’t tin.
derstand us to be censuring you, but if
you have enough of that same inde
pendent, grit, in your giz/.atd, just ac
knowledge the corn, and it will place
you in a much better light before your
readers. y
Mr. Weaver informs us that he is
having the timbers got out for his Mer
chants mill. He seems to .he some
what di.-satisfied about the possibility
of not getting the de&it%d location se
lected some tjme ago £*'" Adairsvilfe ”
near the depot. The place selected
inejades apportion of the small stream
wipe re tlie locomotives now get their
supply of water, but learns that lot is
to be used for a railroad shop of some
kind. He says they have surveyed off
a hotel lot and other lots for purposes
stipulated, and is seems ignored his
fancy or preference for a suitable and
convenient location for his steam mill,
in fact, knowing that he wanted to
build a mill, have made no calcula
tions for it, when the gold is laying
back in the shade ready to pay for the
land when the deed is made. He says if
the mill will bo of no consequence to the
town, and they dont want it, lie don’t
propose to build it—at least be don’t
propose to take ‘Hobson’s choice’ fora
location.
We hope and think Mr. Weaver can
be accommodated. Col. Adair is pos
sessed of too much enterprise and
self interest, to treat the subject slight
ly.
And our council did refuse to ac
knowledge and acqiese in reponse to a
petition of our citizens to dig a well on
the south side of the square, and the
town hav’nt a single well either ! The
court house well demands the serious
consideration and attention of some
body. It seems to be as the fellow
said, “You will and you won’t you'll
if you do and if you don’t ’’
between the county and the city with
regard to the county property within
our limits. iTow ly aside these insig
nificant little prejudice, (childs play)
and put your shoulders to the wheel
and fix up our town in style. The
council should have charge of and im
prove or assist in improving the court
house square ;it is in the city limits
and w* believe it to be their duty as
well as a privilege. If if it is a part of
the incorporation they certainly have
jurisdiction to controleand improve it,
if it is not a part of the incorporation,
why, then, our most efficient marshal,
in our opinon, has no right to molest
any person on the court house square
without a special provision by law, or
a warrant and being duly sworn as a
lawful constable, because the jurisdic
tion of the marshal certainly does not
extend beyond that of council. Now
has the council any oontroka over the
court house yard as public property ?
We are not particularly an advocate
for or against the stock law, for we
have no direct interest at stake ; but
are interested enough to desire, as we
do on all other questions, particularly
those to he decided at the ballot box.
that fair, unprejudiced and impartial
facts and statements be given the peo
ple, that they may be prepared, on
the day of election, to cast their votes
as their judgement dictates for the best
interests for themselves and friends. If
we could not meet the question with
sound argument to influence the peo
ple we certainly would not attempt to
erudite erratically erronenoii9 propo
sitions to mislead the people from that
which may be right and greatly to
their interest. Don’t intimidate the
ignorant with mistaken ideas and by
publishing false reports ; to. do this is a
type of the unfair journalist.
The idea that if the stock law is
passed and a farmers cow is run over
by the cars, that he becomes respon
sible to the railroad company for dam
ages done, and that railroad compa
nies will no longer be responsible for
the killing of stock, is erroneous and
preposterous reasoning. If you think
the law advantageous, don’t let this
mistaken idea keep you from voting
for it.
Don’t be influenced with the idea that
if the law is once passed, you can nev
er repeal it. If you are disposed to test
the stock law, and find it not the thing
you want, send a “fence” man to the
legislature and you can have the law
repealed so far as Butts oounty is con
sented.
As to the widows we have been in
formed that a number of them are in
favor of the law, and if they could ex
ercise that prerogative, would step tip'
to tlie ballot box and cast vote in its
favor ; so don’t be made to believe that
voting for the stock law that you will
do so against the protest of all the wid
ows.
We have endeavored to nssertain
some facts in regard to the reported
murder in Henry county last week,
said to have been perpetrate on account
of the stock law, an4>we have been un
able to find anybody that knows any
thing about it; so lay that on the shelf
and let your minds be no logger troub
led about war in Butts county should
our people see propper to test tho mer
its of the stock law.
If you believe it a good law and arc
willing to try it, vote for it; as to its ad
vantages he your own judge.

“We notice a discussion going on in

originated the project of extending the
Macon and Brunswick Railroad. We
eoppy the following communication
which we find in the Jackson News,
and endorse it in full. IFliile a mem
ber of the Legislature, Mr. Fort gave
his best efforts to the Macon and
Brunswick .Railroad and the Railroad
Commission Bill, and the people are
proud of the results of his labors. At a
meeting of the delegates from thirty
counties held in Macon, who were in
terested in the M. <fc B. R. R., Mr. Fort
was selected as temporary chairman in
recognition of his services in behalf of
the bill, and declined the permanent
Presidency of the Convention on the
ground that someone on the Macon
and Brunswick road ought to preside,
whereupon Judge Mershon of Bruns
wick, was elected to that position.

One of the most horrible accidents
that ever shocked this community ac
cnired here on last Tuesday. Johnnie
Aiken while plowing made an attempt
to loose the traces from tho plow when
he was violently kicked on the head by

left side. He lived two days in the
most agonizing pain and died without
speaking a word or knowing the friends
around him.

The White machine is self threading,
top and bottom ; the running gear is
fitted up in adjuslible steal journals—
no cog-wheels to wear or break. It
has a large roomy arm (or dressmak
ing, self adjustable needle; and for
light running it is perfectly lovely. A
frail woman can run one without the
least fatigue and they should use no
other. In evidence of the durability
of this machine, a written guarantee is
given with each one for live years. For
sale at the Tost Office.
A Curious Machine.—The Pennsyl
vania railroad has in use as automatic
track-tester which discovers faults in
the track not ordinarily appreciable to
the eye and makes a record of them
which indicates their precise locality,
and all this while the machine in pass
ing over tho road t from fifteen to
twenty-five miles an hour It ha* the
external appearance of a baggage car,
but inside is fitted up with self-register
ing apparatus, electric clo;ks, elo. A
bad joint between the rails resistors it
self by the jolt it causes to the delicate
ly hung car. Errors of level in the
track arc recorded by pencils on ruled
paper, aard so nicely arranged that va
riations of an eighth of an inoh are
made manifest. If the gauge is too nar
row or tho rails have spread the fact is
noted by another apparatus. An in*
genious time and distance roghter en
ables the observer to locate Hie imper
fections recorded. A machine of this
kind kept constantly going over a rail
road would be scarcely less careful
than the track walker in discovering
sources of danger to travel.
Baggage It.y Ivxpres**.
The propposition made by Mr B. W.
H’renti, General Passenger Agent for
the Wentern and Atlantic Railroad, ex
tending from Atlanta to Chattanoo
ga—.and which propposition is publish
ed elsewhere in the Record—to turn
over the carriage of baggage of passen
gers to the Express companies, thus
doing away with baggage men, rooms
and cars, is meeting with general favor
among Railroad A/.magors, and bids
fair to make our friend W’renn famous.
So favorably impressed are the Balti
more and Ohio people with the scheme
that they announce their intention of
reorganizing their Express Company
with the understanding that it is to
handle all the baggage of the road.
By Wre’nn'a scheme tho Express
Company would, carry without ex
pense to the passenger, the amount of
baggage Ills ticket entiled hint to aril
delivered it To his abdresS at his desti
nation. Any extra weight of baggage
the passenger would pay the Express
Company for. The Railfoad Company
would pay the Express Company at an
agreed rate for the regular baggage car
ried, and collect contract rate for all
baggage the Express Company trails
ported.
Another thing, suggested by Mr.
Wrenn, we think equally good, and
should be acted upon ; that is to givo
the passenger with no baggage a re
duced rate—say ten per cent. Thou
sands of men travel with a grip sack,
and it does not look fair to charge
them the same rates as the men with
huge trunks and cases to pay

Twiggs county correspondent Ma

other of the many fatal mistakes re
sulting from the use of morphine by
people ignorant ot its power and dead
ly effects. A negro preaebet named
Lina Minims had been in bad health
for some time. Wishing to attend
the funeral of his father, lie teat to a
physician for on opiate to sustain him
during the trip. The doctor sent him
three dosas of morphine. Kulier be
cause he did not got directions or be
cause he did not think enough to hurt
him he took it all at once. On going
on hia wife notioed his drowsiness and
made repeated efforts to arouse him.
But going to sleep while driving, his
