Entered at the Jackson (Ga.) Post Office as secend class mail matter. Could we toil with other’* limbs, sacrifice with other s groans, and pay with others means — there would be no end to our liberality. In the animated picture ehows, the Atlanta people at last hare found something that suits thslr elegant tastes and tickles their fancy. Nowaday* when a politician lmsg ines’himielf abnormally overloaded with brain* ha just take* a butt billy (oat faahion at Theodore Koo*erelt, and then be ia disillusioned. The police department of the city of Atlanta eeems to be fairly obllze with politics. We would advise At lanta to clean out the whole business, elect a Hoke Smith Government and run things in modern style. Coroner C. G. Britt seems to have worked his office up to a paying pro position. Now that he has placed it on a paying basis, we expect to hear of somebody undermining hischarac ter for the purpose of installing him self into his honorable pasitior,. Party is Placed Before Principles. The fearless, and plain sponen, John Temple Graves was denied the privaligo of Bpeaking of Americas Great president at a Bryan banquet on the 10th in Chattanooga. We be lieve’the time has come when princi ples, backed by honesty and fearless ness, are of more importance than party or party doctrines. Georgia is proud of her honest Ed itor and the people of the U. &. are proud of their fearless president. |We Have a Reason for all Our Acts. There is one man in Jackson who Hays this paper was all right until it was ruined by certain affiliations. Now we don’t have to bootliok any body, This paper belongs to, nor is It controlled, by anybody but he Whose name appears at the head of the wditoriel page. We use our influence both as newspaper editor and private Individual to direct business to thoso Who r* c igr.ize, and patronize us. Wo Wont be Ignored with inpunity by any one. We love and will cherish a friend, but we deapise and regard With eoniempt an enemy. Patronize Men Who Know Their Business. There is but one medium by which our business men can reach the far mers of Butts Cos., and that 19 through the columns of The Jacksonian. For instance if our blacksmiths wish to let their country friends know that they are in the horse-shoeing, or re pairing business they can only resell them by advertising in The Jacksoni an. Messrs.). A. Kimbell and G. W Kinsman have realized this fact and are now reaping the proceeds of their foresight und husiress segacity. and we are compelled to say that from having patronized both men we know that they are masters of their trade and will give their customers tl e beet work available.' More Common Sense and Less Stubborness. The case of The Jackson Banting Cos. against Butts Cos., yet remains undecided ;But will be heard again next Saturday. It takes the courts a month to hear and decide a case that any right thinking man would decide in ten minutes. If an individ ual was to attempt to elude the pay mentof his store account, or note for borrowed money by technicalities of law, we are persuaded that either of the Commissioners would brand him as a sneak, a swindler, and a scalawag What then is the difference between the sins of the multitude and the sins of the individual? What will our neighbors think of us? What do they think of us already? How many of us regret our votes already ? It is said that there are some very interesting affidavits extant, and we mean in the near future to obtain copies of same together with other Interesting i eading on the subject and publish it for the benefit of those of our readers who would like to see a little more common sense and less stubbornness used in the matter. Hadn’t been Neglected “My son. who was the first presi dent of the Unitud States?” “George Washington sir” "Very good; well who was his suc cessor?” "Andrew Jackson sir.” Ah 1 sure enough? Well who suc ceeded Andrew Jackson?” "Abraham Lincoln sir.” "Who comes next?” “Grover Cleveland.” “And then?” “Theodore with his big stick.” “My boy, I apprehend that your historical studies have been greatly neglected. What will you do with Adams, Jefferson* Monroe and all the other names that appear between Washington and Roosevelt?” “Othev are like the dry leaves that you find in a two-for-a-nickle cigar, they were merely, fillers.” Willing to Oblige. The police court of an assize town In England was built many years ago, but since then docks, shipbuilding and repairing and boilermaking yards have grown up around the courthouse, with the result that proceedings inside the court are frequently interrupted by the too loud hum of surrounding in dustry. On a recent occasion a judge ordered a constable to go and ask the man ager of a boilermaker’s yard if he couldn't do something to lessen the din. The manager was in an Irritable mood and expressed a ready and exag geratedly courteous but sarcastic will ingness to please his lordship. The sarcasm, however, was lost upon the policeman. “Well, did you deliver that mes sage?” Inquired the Judge when the of ficer re-entered the court to the tune of a metallic tnttoo played by n hun dred hammers. “The noise is as intol erable as ever.” “Yes, sir." answered the officer in a serious tone. "The manager said ’e would order the men to get out their injer rubber ’aminers at once.”—Lou don Telegraph. Early American Bishops. Before the war for American inde pendence tlic American Episcopalians, who were connected with tlic English church, were never suffered to have a bishop among them, but remained un der the jurisdiction of the bishop of London. The rite of confirmation was unknown, and every candidate for or dination was obliged to travel to Eng luud. Out of fifty-two candidates who came from America for ordination in 1767 ten died on the voyage. At length, after the United Stutes had been de clared Independent, Dr. Seabury was ordained bishop of Connecticut by the primus and bishops of Scotland, the prelates of the English church having refused to consecrate him.

He will be the guest of Miss Eloise Found. HOT shot ( Tom & J erry. Street Taxes. Now that the city Tax Collector is scouring the town for street taxes, it behooves every Jack sonite to inquire of the city government officials to know what use is to made of the $3.00 per head you are having collected for street purposes. The law is not am biguous on the subject. Plainly it is that to observe the oath taken by each city official, the money raised for street purposes can be used ONLY on the streets To state that the Btreets of Jackson are in a deplorable condi tion, is but furnishing information which is patent to every one. Let the back-boned citizens of Jackson de mand that her street tax money be not squandered for purposes that are illegal, but that tke same be expen ded for the improvement of her streets. Law can be disregarded till it b<- comes a nulity save when it suits the eonvenience of those who are called upon to observe it. Shall the law abiding citizens stand longer with cleeed lips and knees that quake and hands that hang down ?Rise up, and in the name of the law, call for an ob servance and respect unto the law in the administration of the city govern ment. The people of the County have rights in this matter of good streets. You are taxed to keep the public roads of the Countv worked and the citizens of Jackson pay none of this road poll tax. They uso the public roads and expect—yes demand that this road tax be used to improve the condition of the public roads. Is it unfair for you to demand that they, Jackson, use her street tax to improve the condition of the streets of J ackson ? No ! it not only is a fair proposition, but a LEGAL right you possess. We do noc mean to be “knocking.” Track the law and we will shout your praises with the same vehemence that we protest when you violate the law. Chickens of the Broiling size for sale.

The inventor had called on his patent attorney and told him to “do the best he could.” He had left his blue prints and plans, and it was up to the attor ney to guard the secret. “t’ll see.” said the lawyer when his client had gone, “what's in this.” lie unfolded the plans. Across the top was this big headline: “Device for laying cables around the world In twenty-four bouts.” “One end of the cable is fastened to a PJstJXlie explanation said. “The rest of the coil is carried far up above the clouds—up above the earth’s atmos phere— 7 by an immense balloon. As the world revolves the balloon stands still, and the cable will unwind from the coll. In twenty-four hours the circuit will lie made. The earth will be in twlned and the work completed.”—Bos ton Herald. Ho W&s a Muh Eater. A Scot was staying in an American boarding house, and on coming down to breakfast the morning after his ar rival ho found himself first in the field. By and by a colored man brought in a dish of steaming porridge and placed It on the table. “It must be for me." thought our canny Scott. “It smells well, and. by the powers, ’tis a generous helping!” Saying which he finished the con tents. Soon after a boarder came in. a German, in spectacles, when the fol lowing conversation ensued: German—Good morning, sir. Soot—Good morning, sir. German (looking surprisingly into the empty porridge dish)—Have you seen de moosh? Scot (alarmed)—Eh? Well, fact Is, I’ve eaten it. German (horrified)—Eaten it! Why, it was for ail de boarders!
