Notice is given that an amendment to
the present election law of Georgia will be
offered at next session of die General As
sembly of said State, to lie entitled “All
act to'allow the Judge and Solicitor Gen
erals of Superior Courts to lie elected by

pectiou Judicial Circuits, and for other
purposes connected therewith.” Sept.
24, 1000.
The populists of Clinch county
failed to elect a single candidate

Mark Hanna says there are no

The Telfair Enterprise is thir

older, but few better.
The Fitzgeral Enterprise comes

now.
The Breeze favors democracy

ism third, independentism never!
The people must rule!
The trial Youtsey, for the mur

He will be the third, the first two
having been found guilty.
The state and county elections
having terminated favorably now
comes the struggle for indepen
dence or imperialism in Mov< ruber.
Even the women and children
are in the lines of strikers in Penn
sylvania. And tire women and
children are more concerned than
any others.
Looking over the returns from
the counties in Georgia it is seen
that independents were generally
defeated. The people’s will must
be respected. \

Some of the northern papers art
making a big howl about the burn

The Waycross Fair. I
Mr. Editor :—Permit me to call
the attention of your readers to the
approaching Fair, November 6th
to nth. We are preparing to run
day and night. Grounds will be
lighted by electricity, and there will
be a Midway attraction to attract
the crowd at night. The agricul
tural exhibits promise to be extreme
ly fine.
Can I not prevail on your readers
to try to get everyone of them to
send some article for exhibition?
If I can be of any assistance, don’t
hesitate to call on me.
The Rev. Sam Jones will deliver
a free lecture on the Fair Grounds,
Nov. Bth. This is his first time in
this section, and of course, will
draw a large crowd. May we not
include you among that number?
Respectfully,
W. W. SHARPE,
Secretary.
A Wonderful Offer to Women.
/ "We have received word of a most remark
able offer which is to bo made to women by
The Delineator , of Now York.
Taking the fact that next year begins a
new century, The Delineator offers to dietri.
bute $17,600 among 1901 women. The plan
Is so cleverly arranged that a woman living in
a smalt town or village, has just as good a
chance to win one of these 1901 prizes as a
woman living in a city—because the prizes
are given for the number of subscriptions
secured in a town in proportion to the popu
lation of that town, instead of being given
simply to those who send the largest list of
subscribers —which, of course, are most easily
obtained in big cities. Another clever feature
of the plan is, that all the cities and towns of
the United States and Canada have been ar
ranged in seven classes. The cities of the
greatest population aro groupod in Class 1,
and as these cities are not very many, the
prizes offered are twenty-eight; the high
est prize being SSOO, and the lowest $5.00.
The total amount of prizes given away in this
class is SI,OOO. The remaining smaller towns
and villages fall into six other classes, and as
the number of towns in a class increases, be
cause, of course, there are more small towns
than large ones, the amount of prizes given
away to a class increases, so that in Class 7,
there will he $4,000 distributed among 601
winners.
Furthermore, to everyone who fails to win
one of the 1901 prizes there will bo paid an
extra commission on subscriptions, provided
they equal one out of every two hundred in
habitants of the town from which the con
testant sends them.
This is altogether a very liberal offer, and
one which the famous old Delineator is well
able to make good. From our point of view,
we do not see why such an offer needs to be
made by the Publishers of The Delineator , for
we beliova it already has nearly half a million
subscribers. Its strong hold upon the affec
tions of American women has come in the
past generation, from its practical advice
about dress details and homo matters. tr-
Waycross Herald: “Fitzgerald,
the home of the party who is run
ning against Mr. Brantley, has a
vote of 1131, the entire county
4052 vetes. Brantley will get the
big end of them.” Well, suppose
he does ; the republican will have
the honor of running a Congress
ional race, if he never gets there.
The man in legislature who is
afraid to work for the Hardwick
bill on account of his personal in
terests is a weak member and
should be spotted. The sale of
votes, and the voting of unprin
cipled negroes, as it appears was
the case in Wilcox county, should
be stopped.
Having had a few months exper
ience with the carpet-baggers, the
Porto Ricans are out and out in
favor of tne democrats. They will
oecome part of the solid south if
che ballot should ever be given
them.—Valdosta Times.
The independent candidate for
representative of Wilcox county,
Mr. G. V. Gress, was elected last
week.
