Tiaon is authorized to solicit and collect subscriptions, advertisements and job work The Sentinel. The Sentinel. The province of an up-to-date county newspaper is to furnish its readers with the unbiased news of the county. The Sentinel has no ax to grind, belongs to no political faction, and being “foot loose and fancy free,” proposes to give the people the best newspaper published in Dooly county. Neither the present editors and publishers of this paper, nor any one now owning one dollar’s worth of the same, took any stand in the recent municipal election in this city and belonging to neither politic cal faction we are under obligations to neither, wo owe no a pologetie editorials and we have no debts to pay. We lire a democratic newspaper, and stand strictly for the rights of all our people, the upbuilding of our city and the future prosperity of our county. Every citizen of Cordele wants the chautauqua l be a success— then every citizen should put a shoulder to the wheel and do some thing to help it along. The committee will do its duty, but each and every citizen can do something to further the interest. And when it comes to entertaining visitors, our people know exactly how to do that. The return of the Third Goorgia regiment from Cuba makes glad the hearts of all Georgians, and more especially the soldier boys are glad to get. back home. They were sent to Augusta to be mustered out, and will be set free on or about the 20th day or April. One of the Sentinel’s friends tele phoned a message nine miles one day recently just to say that the Sentinel is the besi paper published in Dooly county. We appreciate such compliments. This is encour aging, too, and we promise to make t lie paper better and better. Since the death of Patrick Walsh, more Ilian four hundred names of Augusta ns have been signed to a petition urging Hon. J. C. C. Black io make the race for Mayor. It is said that last year the far mers of Georgia used -100,000 tons of fertilizers, for which they paid up ward of $7,000,000, or about one fourth as much as they received for their cotton crop, If the reading people in and around Way cross appreciate a good thing when they got it, they must have a word of praise for the Wav cross Journal. It is a good weekly. iRr Tl*e Hornet. A little paper published over on 1 lie other side of town, known as “The Hornet,” by rending between the lines, as it says of an editorial in our last issue, on “Politics in Cordele,” has paid its respects to The Senti nel, and claims that we are partisan. The most ardent friend of The Hornet, who has a thimble full of brains to understand what he reads, can but acknowledge that Cordele politics is in the “middle of a had fix,” and you need not read “between these lines” to Ree that fact. But the object of this is merely to dignify The Hornet with a passing notice,—to furnish it a little free ad vertising and let the people outside of Cordele know there is a pnper called “The Hornet” published here. As the ox would casually use his tail to switch the fly oft' bis back, so also The Sentinel, the only fair, broad minded newspaper published in Cordele, pursues the even tenor of its way and casually switches “The Hornet” aside and advise that it place its sting in something smaller, more in proportion to size, which can feel its inlluence. Easter. Today is the last day of March, and the next day is April. But the day that now is most in the minds of the ladies especially is next Sun day—Raster. The millinery shops and fancy stores have made great preparation in order that their customers might exhibit their pur chases on next Sunday—if the weather permits. Easter comes earlier this year than for a number of years and it seems that Spring is a little dilatory about coming in, but we may look for and expect everything to be in readiness on time. We would not censure one person for making a show of dress on the Easter day—we like to see it—but on that day a thought, of Him risen from the tomb to grant us the privilege of a life that should be full of aspirations to do that which is pleasing in His sight, should be given. So, while we are thinking so much of ourselves, we should also havo a nobler thought. The graded road from Irwin ville to Fitzgerald, which is being built by the chaingang, will probably be completed by the first of next week. “Georgia Education” is the title of a magazine- just entering the jour nalistic field. Its first number appear ed on Mch. 15th; it is published in Atlanta semi-monthly; is an advo cate of education. Miss S. Y. Jewett very ably edits the magazine. A SMALL SPOT CANCER.

In the, last issue of this paper there appeared an article on this subject in which we deplored the condition of municipal politics as it now exists here. We did not then and we do not now pretend to discuss the cause of the condition of things, for we dare say that there is not a roan here but who has his own immovable opinion as to the cause, and we heed waste no time discussing tlie cause. The eeffect of the present condition of our politics upon our town and county and how to settle matters, and what people abroad are saying about our wrangle over the offices of mayor and aldermen, are the important tilings to which we sincerely call the attenti »n of our people. We said that already too much ill feelings exist among our people; that the interests of oui town are at stake; that the interests of the tax payers of our county are at stake, and that the office is too small to warrant the pies ent condition of affairs when so much is at stake. We take authority to quote Judge Butt who stated in a crowd iri the Roberts hotel at Vienna the other day, that “Cordele should be ashamed of herself, creating such a stir over the small office of mayor.” We have it authentically, that three businessmen have right recently been here for the purpose of going in busi ness, but remarked that there is too much wrangling in the city politics, too much writing people up in the newspapers,—and we lost them. We congratulate ourselves that a large numb< r of men, belonging to both political factions arc now, as sug gested by The Sentinel, expressing themselves in favor of harmony and unity among our people and we are sorry that efforts made by leading par ties a few days ago to settle the mat ter did not materialize. A large ma jority of voters belonging to both political parlies in Cordele arc witli The Sentinel in this matter of “Politics in Cordele” and would like to see all differences settled at once, our people unified, stop so much wrangling and get down to business. The Chautauqua is bound to be a success, ! What is declared to be the finest chime of bells in the United States hangs in the tower of St. Joseph’s cathedral, Buffalo, There are 43 bells, and 41 of them have been un heard for more than a quarter of a century. An effort is being made to ■ put the machinery in order so that the bells may ring when the American exposition opens in the Bison City. The chime was hung in 1868. “(Sumter county farmers announce that they have stacks of hay and will have more. They have sense like folks,” says the Macon Tele graph. The Vienna Progress -wants the dogs in Dooly county muzzled, or wants a dog law, or wants makers to put a tax on the canine. A lit tle colored girl was bitten re cently, near Vienna, by a dog that was thought to have had liydropho bia. A tusk of the vicious brute cut an ugly gash just above the girl’s eye. Bro. Kelley says every dog has his day, but he thinks that there are more dogs than days. A HUSBAND SAYS ® a “ Before my wife began using '4% Mother’s Friend she could hardly get around.
