A recent decision of the Georgia
supreme court puts all prohibition
counties iu doubt as to whether
they have legal prohibition or not.
We notice that the {Miners gen¬
erally throughout the Western
circuit are endorsing 0. U. Brand
for solicitor-general. So far he
has had no opposition, and will,
very likely, be re-olocted without
any.
On nccount of the recent troub¬
les in Frankfort, Ivy., and the law¬
less attitude displayed by the
mountaineer Republicans who are
flocking into Frankfort, the Deni
ocrats have moved their seat of
government to Louisville.
There arc several small enter¬
prises that could lie established in
Carnesville which would prove
paying investments. Let our citi¬
zens get together and put sonic of
them in operation. It will not
only he remunerative to them but
a benefit to our town and comntu-
A
Gov. Wm. E. Goebel, the Dem¬
ocratic governor who was assasi
nated in Frankfort, Kv., last week,
died Saturday evening at 6:45 He
had boon sworn in as governor,
and issued several official papers
before his death. Lieut. Gov.
Becham has been sworn in and
will succeed him as governor.
Carnesville neods a good flour
mill. Why can’t our people get
together and organize a stock
company and put one into opera¬
tion) It would not only bo a good
paying investment for those who
took stock in it, but would be a
great benefit to tiie town and
community, and would enoiurage
our farmers to plant more small
grain.
We hope that the Grandiury
when it meets at the March term
of court, will see fit to recommend
the taxation of dog*. Perhaps by
being forced to pay tax, a large
number of the worthless dogs will
be killed, and we will have fewer
dogs. Several people in
n ) c j, n county have been bitten

size fortlie vest pocket, arid to
sell them at 25 cents* book. The
innovation would be hailed with
pleasure by all users of postage
stamps. Almost any publisher in
the world except the government
would long ago have done away
with the great inconvenient sheets
of stamps. The clerks find the
sheets unhandy, and the purchas¬
ers often find the preservation of
the integrity ot the individual
stamps a matter of difficulty in a
moist atmosphere. Books of

Hog and Hominy la Louisiana.
The farmers of Louisiana
well as of Georgia and other
Southern states are fast departing
from the old policy of putting all
their eggs in the cotton basked.
The policy has been less narrowly
followed in Louisiana than in sonic
other states, however, for there
great crops of sugar and rice as
well as of cotton have always been
harvested. Now the tendency is
to diversify still further, as will be
seen from the following interest¬
ing statement made by the presi¬
dent ot the State Agricultural
Association to the members of
that body recently assembled it
Arcadia in northern Louisiana:
“The hog crop of Louisiana is
annually assuming far greater im-
jMjrtance than formerly and with
a correlative growth.ui the corn
crop wo may lie assured that there
will be a constant diminuation in
the expenditure of the money of
the planters of this state for the
purchase of hog products in the
other states.
•“We thus find that
agriculture is pressing itself
our attention; that we are
ally engaging in it,
ing our predis[>osition in favor
these three groat semi-tropical
crop. The frequence of disaster
has compelled us to be more care¬
ful in provisioning ourselves with
ample supplies to resist disasters
when they may come. The large
sugar plantations that formerly
spent thousands of dollars annu¬
ally for corn and oats are now
finding that home-grown corn and
their own low grade molasses fur¬
nish an abundance of most excel¬
lent feed, and with resulting bet¬
ter profits to all concerned.
“I remarked in a recent visit to
north Louisiana in the summer
time, along the line of this rail¬
way, through the parishes ot Mad-
lsori and Richland, that a traveler
would have thought himself in
Illinois rather than in Louisiana;
iu a corn country rather than in a
cotton country; the vast fields of
waiving corn resembling more that
part of Illinois known ns Egypt
rathei than the ordinary cotton
fields/of Louisiana. When the
farmer shall annually produce all
possible that he can of the articles
that he consumed he will then be
on the high road to success Ex¬
periences prove this, and the man
who does this will probably have
more surplus staple cotton crops for
than he who engages in single
culture, staking all his cap¬
therein, ouly to be ruined iu
end.”
The New Orleans Picayune finds
facts very cheering, as they
are, indeed, anil hails them as in¬
dications of greater prosperity to
come. “The fact that Southern
planters are growing their own
food crops,” It says, “as well as
the semi-tropical .staples, upon
which they chiefly depend shows
that they are on the right road to
make themselves independent of
the outside purveyors of these nec¬
essaries.”—Macon Telegraph.
Wo hope the farmers will not be
fooled into planting all cotton
this y ear 811,1 1’ 1 ^ b « cause of
comparatively high .
lhe price.
Let our farmers raise their own
meat and broad, and all the forage
and other stuff that it will take to
do them, and then plant all the
cotton they can tend, and the
price of cotton will continue to ba
high and our farmers will be in a
more prosperous condition.
