Down in Decatur county, 335 miles from our office, several parties wanted to give us a bushel of pindere, pota toes, corn, or fodder for our paper, but as it was so far away we told them we would semi the Argus man down with his steelyards.—National Head light. We had rather have a dollars worth of any of the above articles than sixty cents in lilty lucre. Sixty cents wont pav for the patent outside of our con temporary and we can’t see vvliat will become of the india rubber insido of its editor We suppose though that he will draw on the campaign fund of the P. P. P. Isn’t it about time But is coutity had a representative in • ~? Other counties have 1 n ns;. - he cow over us now for m ... ■ . 1 whose fault is it? Welut'c some ui as fine congressional timber within our borders as any county in ihe state, and it only needs to be matketed for it to bring out its worth in national a Hairs. If somebody from Bu s don’t get in the race for congress—and that durned quick—you can just pb, o a little vote down in your left hand vest pocket to be chugged in that \n an ballot box for your ‘‘t ! h ’ Johnnie McDonald! We are ; ,>dof seeing this county lying in a v g condition for such an indefinite : 1 and if the worat comes to the worst, and we can get no one else from here to run, we faithfully promise, whether we are elected or not, to run for all she’s worth, and then go on to Wash ington—same as all othei congressmen do, under similn r fM rnii mt <1 nr>oc ami stick our name to the pay roll and help make up a quorum. We would much rather someone else would go, however, as we are not very well ac quainted up there and don’t “hanker” Bfter mixing up with such fellows as Hoke Smith and Tom Reed, nohow ! especially when our reputation is at stake. Now, if this generous offer Is not accepted before the time for our departure rolls round, you may rest assured that it was forced upon us, and is only another case of the office seeking the man !' Next! AN ERRONEOUS BROTHER. The last issue of the National Head light says: “Say, Brother Harmon, if you will take your sack and step down on the line of Fla., you can get a lot ot sub scribers it you take country products. Aa you believe in the exchanges of products, without the medium of exchange (money), this will be a nice littlo walk tor you, as it is only 335 miles from the Argus oflbe.” If there is anything ia this world that the Headlight is an expert in, it is in misunderstanding a proposition. We stated in the article to whieh the above refers that the . “other fellow’’ must furnish the medium ofexchangc, besides our paper is local in its nature and would not be interesting to the bacic-weodsmau tur brother refers to. We think that moss-kack Okefenokee fguoramous has missed the chance of his life in not subscribing for the Headlight, for it would have been such a congenial companion tor our Florida triend to have to looked pic tures in. when the frogs cease to croak and the mosquitoes sing no more. FOUND GUILTY. The Jackson Argus was arraigned before the court Saturday and convicted. Col. M. V. MoKibben was the attorney for the prosecution, Mr. W. B. Collins, judge. The charge read as folllows: ‘‘The Jackson Argus is accused of publishing too much news for the money.” Mr. G. W. White, of Worthyille, was called to the 6tand and testified that he knew the charge to be true. Mr. Dutch Thompson corroborated Mr. White. Mr. A. M. Watkins, seeing the course things were taking, moved for a change of venue, claiming that the mayor of Pep- j per Town had jurisdiction. This was ruled out and the judgment of the court was that we were guilty. He sentenced us to wo>'k on the streets three months. Col. Curry suggested that we be discharged on condition that we raise our subscription to $2.00 per anuum. We refused to comply ind “sar aharaud,” and will go before the August term of the court and plead eur case, which is that Jackson and Butts oounty are worthy of a good paper, and we have the right to make it as good as we can, and charge nothing for it. NEWa FROM STARK. Editors Argus: —Things were not moving so smoothly on our return from a a week’s so journ in Jackson. The first thing our attention was called to was that the new council had been inaugurated and, as is generally the case, they bad started out to reduce everything and everybody. One of the newly elected members had introduced a lesolution to have the bond of the city treasurer reduced to $25,000, and then a long debate followed, which created a great deal of sympathy for and against, on a ratio of eighteen to one. The extension of the city limits was next ttken up and considerable trouble arose therefrom. Sonic waut ed to extend the western limit so as to take in the residence of our friend, Sherrod Pope, while oih rs thought McCord’s mill pond was far enough, but as the matter was tabled, we will let you know later o n. The council had received a letter of much information, and ot deep inter est tram the mayor of Worthville, Hon. Obe Hendrick, but we are not at liberty) yet to let its purport be known. Some few that a-ked leave of absence for a short space of time during court week, have not returned ■ el. There is one thing that is an assured fact, and that is the morals of this place will always bo kept up to t lie high water mark. The greatest sport around this place, And one that gives much fun, Is to hunt the sightless tiger, And see the witness run. Some run lik* the antelope, Others like the hare, But the funniest run of all the race Is one that runs like the bear! Don’t think from the above that we have get to be a poet, and that we have been urged a great number ot times by our friends to gather up out poems and have them published in book form, as some would say, for wo have not. And in order to show more conclusively that we are not that way inclined, we will borrow a few verses from Gilhooly to close with. “It is just as much impossible For every man to be a poet, As it is for every sheep That’s in the folu to be a go-at.” Occasional.

Nye in his letter to the Atlanta Journal tells of the hardships he inet with in landing. lie seems to labor under the impression that his station in life was under-rated and caused him to pay more duty than should have been collected to support Hie “dignity” of this republic. He closes as follows: “Why, therefore, shuold a custom’s examiner of small attainments become the arbiter of.these great questions and tell me at a glance where I belong when that power is vested in omnip otence and omniscence only? Shall poor, weak, feeble man with brief au thority vested in him by a fleeting administration assume the light to say at a glance whether my mental and moral sta us entitles me to visit Europe with 19 trunks or simply a package done up in a red bandanna ?

Someone has, whether intentionally or not Ido not say, done me the injustice t© report that I had, with my friend*, gone to Atlanty on last Monday to have Gov Northern appoint me Judge of the county court, of Butts county. I have this to say, it is an egregrious mistake, because I could not aspire to that position ef judge ship of a court that does not exist and in my opinion will not exist legally. If there was and could be such a thing to exist legally in this county as a county court. I would not be elligib.e to the judgeship, because 1 have not lived in tho county two years.
