The policy of all the papers and par
ties uow should be “equal lights to one
and special privileges to all.” Espec
ially is this true in regard to papers, for
every man in the community enjoys
special piivileges with his county paper,
and uo one gets equal rights with th e
editor for he is the only man that can
answer an article that is written in the
same issue with the answer.
All those parties who haye been run

know you are going to do this any way

The man who sneers at local enter

It is hard to tell whether Dr. W. C.
Bryant is a resident of Jackson or Jen

state that we now consider him a full

proud of him, too.

Every business in Jackson or any oth

“POPS” IN A LOVE FEAST.
Apropos of the “Populist Love Feast”
held at the court house on Tuesday of
this week, the following pathetic effu
sion was handed us for publication:
Oh, but there was fun in Jackson,
When the darkiep all met
Up in the Superior court room,
And began to smell aud sweat.
Bobbie engineered the meetin’
And made a wild harrangue,
An’ told the darkies how he loved ’em
Along with others of the gang.
Our Bob was in his glory.
For visions of other days
Came trooping back like ravens black,
To roost o’er lonely graves—
Graves wherein lie buried
Each murdered child of power
That lived and reigned to Georgia’s shame
But vanished in an hour.
And once he grew pathetic
(Some of the darkies cried)
When he rolled his ey s toward the skies
Aud told how at Christmas tide
The little nigs all o’er the land
Cried for striped candy—cried in vain,
For their poor old dad were off on scads,
And the democrats were all to blame!
REQCIESCAT IX PEACE.
Return to thy sepulcher—
Thy day is past—forever past—
This dream of glory is a mocking story
Too good, too beautiful to last.
COUNTRY’S MOVIN’!
Say your say an’ sing your song—
Country’s movin’ right along!
Spring or summer—hail or snow,
Country’s always on the go!
Puffin’, blowin’,
Ilot, or snowin’,
Always goin’,
Goin’!
Goin’!
Say your say by night an’ day—
Country’s happy on the way!
Spite o’ weather, spite o’ crops,
Always goin’—never stops!
Puffin’, blow ? in’,
Makes a showin’;
Always goin’,
Goin’!
Goin.!
Stormy skies, or weather fair,
Country’s got the roadway clear!
Storms may howl, or bells may chime,
Country’s goin’ all the time!
Puffin’, blowin’,
Reapin’, sowin’,
Always goin’,
Goin’!
• Goin’!

There is no rule but what will work

Mr, George R. Ridgway, who lives in
the western portion of this county, says
that his cotton crop is off half whac he
thought it would make a short while
since. He also said that he had visited
other farms in the settlement, and that
they are no better than his. The stalk
is alright but the bolls are not on them.
In many instances the worms have eaten
half the bolls on the stalk.
A man went into a store in a neighbor
ing town and asked if he could rest four
or five hours. The proprietor, who had
just found a nest of new- born mice in
the coffee grinder, told him he could
and then asked him why he didn’t go to
the hotel. The man replied: “lam suf
fering from ueryous prostration and the
doctor said to get a quiet place to rest
and I see you don’t advertise. I knew
that I couldn’t find a quieter place.”
And with that he settled back in his
chair and watched the swallows build a
nest in the cheese case.— Griffin News.

The Jackson Mercantile Company, pro
prietors of the Store, have an an
nouncement in this issue that it will
benefit our many readers to ponder over.
For the past month this live establish
ment has had three buyers in New York

spared neither pains nor money to pro
cure the best and cheapest stock of

skeptical that the Star Store is the place
to trade if you desire to get your money’s
worth of the most stylish goods at the
cheapest prices.
