I remain voitrs GREENE,’ very truly, L. J. T. C. F. G. A Falsehood Hailed. A report has been circulated in Garnesville this week that I stated when in Hart county recently that I said ‘ A few prohibitionists and Al- liancemen were trying to run the county diy, but they could not do it.” The above statement, embellished with several paths, is being industri¬ ously circulated. I charge the whole statement, or any similar one, as be¬ ing a malicious falsehood in every particular, and challenge the produc¬ tion of the proof. Sept. 24, 1890. If. G. Fbi:em.vx. NOTICE.

Miss Dora Carson, of Bold Spring, visited Miss Minnie McEntire this week.' 31r. A\’. T. AVilliford and lady, of Harmony drove, visited in town Sun¬ day and Monday. Prat Brown, who has been taking special lessons under Prof. Looney, has returned to his home in Macon. “Alabastine,” the cheapest and best coating, for walls and ceiling, at L. G. Hardeman & Bro., Harmony Grove. .Air. X". S. Alexander, the genial editor of the Harmony drove Age, gave ns a pleasant call last Tuesday. Sunday last was a bad day for the Association. It is to be regretted that so many yellow-legged chickens, “stewed fruit and light-bread” should “go a-begging.” Col. R. II. Kinncbrew lias resigned the editorship of the Danielsville Monitor, and .Air. B. X. AA'liile has succeeded him, having purchased Col. K.’s interest. Read advertisement of L. G. Har¬ deman Bro., Harmony drove, da., in this issue. Those desiring to paint their houses cannot buy painting ma¬ terial cheaper in Atlanta than from this firm. Thos. J. AA’oaver, of this county, procured some pure seed of the flour¬ ing corn. In order to keep it from mixing with the common corn he planted it in the midst of his sorghum cane patch. To his great surprise when he gathered his flouring corn he found it had mixed with his cane, some of the ears being a beautiful red and others streaked with red. AVlio can get up a more common mixture—-buscuit and syrup ? Get our prices on clothing and hats before buying. McConxet.i. it Ca>: non*. New Advertisements In this week’s paper will be found several new advertisements, and we do not hesitate to say that they rep¬ resent f lic very best houses in the country in their respective lines. AA’e call special attention to the ad¬ vertisement of the organ and piano house, Athens, Ga., conducted by 3Ir. Hope Hale, who thoroughly under¬ stands his business, and is prepared to offer his customers every induce¬ ment that a legitimate business will allow. AVe heartily recommend this house to all who wish to purchase or pianos. The advertisement of the Hard¬ ware Store, Harmony drove, should be carefully read. This is the lead¬ ing establishment of the kind in this section of the state, everything being handled largely and purchased direct from headquarters, The stock is owned by that admirable gentleman, I)r. L. G. Hardeman, and is man¬ aged by 31r. Benton, who takes spe¬ cial pains in giving satisfaction to their large patronage. ilany of our readers will be glad to sec the advertisement of L. G. Hardeman & Bro., paints, oils, etc. These are goods that the unsurpassed development of the country demands, and which are frequently very hard to secure. This house deals exten- sivt-ly in these goods, and the sur- rounding trade can depend on them for any and everything in this line. Besides paints, oils, etc., Hardeman it Bro. carry a line of drugs that would do credit to any city drug store in the state. We can conscientiously say to our readers that business men who ad¬ vertise make a study of the people s wants, and as a rule are the best houses to trade with. All of the Lightning medicines at McConnell & Cannon’s. Sold on a positive guarantee. CLOSINO EXERCISES Of the EasttmaUec School—Prof. M. H. Looney’s Speech. Morgan 11. Looney, the great Southern educator, lias been with us. lie delivered an address at the clos¬ ing exercises of l*rof. Busha’s school on the evening of the 19th inst., tak¬ ing as his subject, “Determination, Application, Energy and Persever¬ ance.” lie held the school and au¬ dience spell-bound for one hour, showing the four points in his text as essential to the final triumph of every undertaking, illustrating by the ex¬ ample of all the great men of the na¬ tion—Clay, franklin, Moore, Cal¬ houn, and the world-renowned Hum¬ boldt. He showed with vivid force the effort on the part of Franklin. The audience could almost see him leaving his home at the age of til; his passing through the streets of Philadelphia with a ginger cake un¬ der each arm, and the Lady Reed laughing him to scorn; we could see smiling in his bosom a determination to woo her and make her his wife; we behold him applying himself in the printing office afterwards, becom¬ ing the greatest of American philos¬ ophers, spinning out the silken cord to his kite and bringing into subjec¬ tion the electricity of the clouds, by which the world can converse to¬ gether in a moment or in the twink- ling of an eye. lie showed by illus¬ tration the power of the four points in the text by Calhoun poring over his books at a late hour of the night, thereby becoming the greatest states¬ man of the world, when in the U. S. congress lie shook the nation. There were several declamations and dialogues, interspersed with mu¬ sic, and the acting of the various clowns. The whole affair was a pleasant one, and reflected great credit oil Prof. 1 haslet for his manly efforts. Vi'e were thoroughly con¬ vinced in the exercise of the clowns that it was easier for a white man to act like a negro than for a negro to act like a white man. , Franklin county should bo proud of 3Iorgan II. Looney, and labor to keep him. He belongs to Franklin county by birth, and should be kept here. Tom. Use Dr. King’s Royal Gernu-tner for rheumatism, neuralgia, paralysis, etc. Sold by A. AY.

Miss Julia Wilder is visiting friends at Fort Lamar. The stock of drummers seem to be complete and “full up.” John Duncan, of Goldmine, is keep¬ ing books for AY. A. Royston & Son. Owen L. Moore visited our town last Sunday. He certainly had a big time. 3Iiss Effie Agnew left last Alondey for Lagrange where she will enter college. Judson A. Cautlicrn 1ms bought out Hilliard & Fleming’s codfec- tiouery. Dr. J. D.Vcal has moved his drugs into the house west of Little & Le- grand’s store. Frank 31. Cook is making milk shakes and drawing soda water for J. A. Cautlicrn. AA'ilborn AA’ilder and Webb Hutch¬ erson, of Fort Lamar, was in our town last Sunday. Prof. Lee 3Iason, assistant teacher of the Goldmine school, is now clerk¬ ing for P. II. Bowers. J. J. Bond has the latest thing in the way of a shoe. They are marked “all wool and a yard wide.” Messrs. Little & Legrand have opened up a large stock of goods in the Campbell, A’eal & Campbell old stand. The post office has been moved to Hilliard’s old confectionery stand, and Cautlicrn is keeping in the old post office house. 31r. James Hall, of Cromers 3fill, was in our city lust .Alonday. From the way he talked we think lie knows something of the mule getting away from the Prof, and Plowboy. Miss Emma Gary visited Atlanta last week and purchased a nice stock of millinery goods. -She lias opened them up in the store south-west of the depot. Parties needing goods in her line will do well to call on her.
