Mr. Turner, the Alliance lecturer
of this district, was in Jackson last
Saturday. Every allianceman who
misseo hoaring him missed a treat,
lie made an old time lecture on unity,
manhood and the orotherhood of the
order. We were greatly pleased and
agreeably disappointed, for we ex
pected to hear a third party speech.
Mr. Turner stood above any party,
and advocated the demands of the or
der in a nonpartisan enirit. Reason
is returning to the Alliance aud be
ing a democrat or populist, does not
disfranchise a man. and render him
incompetent to hold an office in the
County Alliance as was the case at
the election last year of our county
Alliance otfleers.
To Alliauceniau, who believe the
democratic party is the only available
means to overthrow eastern monopo
ly and gold-bugisn:. Tne “iner cir
cle” of populist have, in some sections,
blended tho order and their party un
til you become disgusted and quit.
Now that is wrong, you goo.i, honest
men who know that the Alliance is
as nonpartisan as the church should
stand to your rights and never give it
tip.
There are a few people’s party men
who arc so bitter and narrow minded
that they would rather the order
would remain in its pieseut shape and
you are just playing to their hands to
remain suspended, but the rank and
file of the people’s party are honest
and arc really seeking relief. You
should go, and go now, and reinstate
yourself on the original principles.
They are the same they have ever
been, and it makes you look like cow
ards to surrender to the first obstacle.
Reinstate yourself and get your neigh
bor to do likewise.
There aie many people in Jackson,
who do not kuow all the streets
yet. While Jackson is on a boom,
why don’t wc post our streets with
their uames, and number the houses,
both business and dwelling. It would
take but little mouey aud be a great
stride toward progress. Those who
b*Ta lived in a town less than Jack
son, with these modern Improve
ments, reAlly feel lost with no names
on streets and numbers of houses.
Wout our city fathers consider the
matter?
When one aye is extinguished,
the other becomes more keen;
when one band is ent off, the other
becomes more powerful; so when
oar reason in human things is
disturbed or distroyed. our view
heavenward becomes more acute

A GOOD SHOWING.
Butts County Out of Debt and H as
Money in the Treasury.
Four years ago, January first,
there-was $1650 in the county
treasury. At that time, we were
paying a ax of five tenths of one
per cent, or five miils on the dollar.
Since that time we have erected
a jail costing $-5000, paid out S4OOO
on one murder paid the cur
rent expenses of the county, reduc
ed the tax to 4.65 millg and now
have $7,585.16 laid up.
This is more money by near two
thousand dollars than it to
pay all expenses of the county last
year. Now, with the railroad tax
which amounts to about $1,700, it
looks like the taxes should be great
ly reduced this year. This is a good
showing anu our citizens will he
proud to know that the county is in
such a healthy financial condition.
SOMEWHAT ROMANTIC.
On Sunday morning last at the
residence of the bride’s father, in
Henry county, wre united in mar
riage Miss Mary McKibben and Mr,
John Gray of Alabama, Rev. J, A.
Jackson officiating.
About fifteen years ago Mr. Gray,
the groom, was united in marriage
to Miss Ida Wyatt, in the same
community in which the last mar
riage was performed, and Miss Me-
Kibben was one of the attendants.
Shortly afterewaids the couple mov
ed to Alabama where they lived
happily till last year when the wife
died, leaving Mr. Gray with a fami
ly of children. After a lapse of
time Mr- Gray bagan to think of
marrying again but could think of
no one for a second wife hut the
sweet faced Miss Mary McKibben
whom he had left behind in Geor
gia, and whom ho had not seen in
all these years. He finally wrote to
her and a courtship correspondence
followed and finally photographs
were exchanged, and perhaps an
old love was rekindled, To in ike a
long story short, Mr. Gray came lo
Georgia last week, and on Sunday
they were happily united in the hc
ly bans of wedlock and at once went
to Mr. Gray's home in Alabama.

Silver Bedsteads.
A bed made in Paris for an In
dian prince was constructed partly
of silver, with large female figures
at each corner, each holding a del
icate looking fan, The weight of
the sleeper’s body sets certain ma
chinery in motion, which causes
the figures to keep the fans gently
in motion—a luxury in a hot cli
mate. By touching as pring a large
musical box is made to give forth
soft music as a further incentive
to slumber. Another bedstead of
silver is said to have been occupied
by the German Emperor during
his visit to the Sultan. It had Ori
ental curtains of surpassing rich
ness, heavily embroidered with
gold. What a contrast this pre
sents to the simple iron camp beds
occupied by some of the greatest
sovereigns of Europe.
Punishing Children.
A mother whose success in the
training of her little folks is some
thing beautiful to behold, believes
in “making the punishment fit the
crime,” and finds this rule to work
far better than measures that have
no real bearing on the case. For
instance, the untruthful little one
is not permitted to speak until only
correct statements are promised
faithfully to be uttered. If a
child disarranges the work basket
or litters up the room it is not sent
away after a shaking or a slap,
while the mother spends an hour
in putting things to right, but is
made to pick up everything and
arrange things just as they were
before the busy little fingers did
’Jheir mischievious work.
Flesh in the Flaring Skirt.
Fleshy women will hail the flar
ing skirt with delight, for it hides
most cunningly broadened hips
and large stomachs. The model
known as the “Trumpet” is also
a favorite with stout women. It
is gracefully wrinkled across the
front, the back arranged in horn
or trumpet folds that gradually
spread towards the lower edge.
Beer Drinking and Women’s
Feet.
The dimensions of the feet of
English and German women are
curiously ascribed to the habit of
drinking beer. The Americans
who have also adopted that drinl;
are beginning to lose the beauty c 4
thff ’r feet.

THE PROMISED LIGHT.
E’er sines the morn the shepherds kneeled,
Before the angels in the field,
And there confessed the word was true.
That what God had said He sure would and:
That in a future time he’d send
His son, the Savior of all men,
Willi heavenly power and Godly might
To a sinful world, to be the Light.
Although the night was dismal,, dark,
Above their there was a spark—
Across the hills of Judah, far,
There shone a bright, a brilliant star —
A star to guide their weary feet,
Until a Savior they would greet.
men, too, begau to stir, —
T’hey gathered frankincense and myrrh,
And gifts, whose names were never told—
Of diamonds pare and richest gold.
2 hey left their homes, and took the road,
Each burdened with a precious load.
Then to the west they looked afar
And there beheld a promised star—
The s’ar of love, of truth, of right,
That was to guide them to the Light.
They pressed along with rapid speed,
On camels or Arabian steed;
And to the star that shone on high
Thy kept a constant watchful eye.
They followed on its certain lead
Nor stopped to rest a weary head,
Until it stood above the place
Where could be seen the Savior’s face.
There in a manger lay the child,
And on his face a peaceful smile.
He was the Light.dircct from Heaven,
The promised light to men was given.
A light to guide our weary feet.
Until we walk the golden street:
Until we reach the shining shore,
W bete sin aud death is known no more.
Now let those who’ve not begun,
Begin today and follow on,
Nor lose the way, but keep the road,
(Like Moses, we will do thee good,)
For Christ the Light to m&u was given
To lead the weary ones to Heaven.

thrown open wide, disclosing a scene
of radiant loveliness. Suspended

basket tied with dainty ribbons, and
filled with hyacinth and smilax. The

on the delicate foliage of the emerald
smilax adorned the centre. The vvholj
length of the long table was a rose
satin scarf, emblematic of the file of
this noble lady, fortune’s royal ravor
ite, all colour depose. In the centre
of the tab'e towered a pyramid of hy
acinths, roses, smilax, spicy gerane
ums and violets. At either eud were
stands of luscious fruits nestling amid
hyacinths.
The service and satiny damask
were of the most exquisite. The menu
consisted of every dainty and delicacy
that heart could wish. The steaming
oysters, flaky wafers, salads, pickle-,
bread, delicious cakes, chocolates, cof
fee, wines and ice, bespeaking the
thorough supervision ot this gifted
lady in the culinary department. The

JENKLNSBURG DOTS.
On last Sunday night about 12
o’clockjjburglars entered the store of
R. E. Brown, of Locust Grove, armed
with sledge hammers, cii’sels, etc.,
evidently prepared to blow the safe,
but were frightened by the night
watch and ran away. There were
three men and a little boy in the
crowd. On Sunday morning at live
o’clock there was an explosion like
the sound of a cannon that awoke the
quiet citizenry of Jenkinsburg. The
trouble was located at the store of
Whitaker & Childs, which was bn the.
Burglars had entered the store by
prizing the guard bar of tho window
and had blown open the safe with
dynamite. They bad taken the mon
ey draw containing about $150.00 in
bills and fled, leaving thirty dollars in
silver in a shot bag and the house on
fire. There is no tangible clew to the
identity of the parties. This is the
second time this store Las been bur
glarized since November and if the
scamps are caught we would liate to
take their bill of fare.
