The County Should Provide,
On Saturday last at The Dooly
County Teachers Monthly Institute,
a motion was put and carried that a
representative be selected to present
to the next grand jury the necessity
of local taxation in the county for
the maintenance of the public
schools for at least nine months in
the year. Upon nomination Rev. J.
M. Kelly of Vienna was elected to
represent the public interest, and
Prof. R. J. Prentiss of Cordele, for
the Teachers Association.
In consideration of the above, we
beg leave to offer a few remarks:
The great resource of the public
schools is, and must continue to be,
some form or forms of public taxation.
Towns and cities seeing the necessity
of this tax, as well as the benefits
accruing therefrom, have pretty gen
erally adopted it. and consequently
the country places are suffering to
day.
The basis of school taxation, or the
ultimate sources of school supply, is
an important subject, Whether
more money can lie had for the
schools often depends upon the man
ner in which it is proposed to levy
the tax. If the discipline of a good
school is adapted to prevent crime,
the length of the course of study is
even more important to this need.
The wealth of the county or state
is measured by the aggregate prod
uct of the raw materials plus these
same raw raateria's converted into
manufactured goods. Counties and
states as well as nations become rich
in proportion as they multiply man
ufactories. Mere products of raw
material can never make the county
of Dooly rich. It requires intelligent
educated labor to do this; hence the
necessity for Dooly’s advance.
We challenge dispute on the fol
lowing facts:
1st, Those states in the Union have
the greatest prosperity that have the
lowest percentage of illiteracy.
2d, Those states that produce the
greatest amount of wealth annually,
by converting raw material into man :
ufactured products, are those states
that have the fines‘ system of public
schools.
3d, Crime decreases among the na
tive population just in proportion as
intelligence spreads among the labor
mg classes.
These statements being true, as

come from within—the last vestige of poison must be eradicated.

Positively the only cure for Cancer is Swift’s Specific—

—because it is the only remedy which can go deep enough to reach the root of
the disease and force it out of the system permanently. A surgical the blood operation

^ then tollows that the heM
money we can spend, will , be the
money spent in making the masses
intelligent, working for the county’s
and their own good. It is not the
increase in the number of bales of
cotton, the bushels of corn or the
bushels of wheat, the price of any
one of which can be cornered in New
York any day in the year, but it is
in the increase of brain in the masses
of the people, that will make us truly
great. Nobody has ever yet made
a “corner” on brains. But there is
another side to the question. That
other side is not the money side and
not the mere financial value of edu
cation. Besides, it is as true now as
it was two thousand years ago, that
man cannot live by bread alone It
is a serious question whether mere
money-getters are worth much to
the world. We, want underlying our
public education a better thought.
We desire that our children shall
learn at school and at home, in soci»
ety and everywhere, that the best
product of civilization is manhood and
womanhood, which cannot be pur
chased in any of the markets of the
world.
The state that maintains u political
power must be founded on a democ
racy of learning. Therefore each
county and state must provide for
the education of her rulers. How
may she do this except through her
public schools? But,

Negro Picnic at Beech Haven,
Negro picnic. A gun. The coro
nor.
The negroes had a picnic at Beech
Haven Saturday and two of them
never came back. It seems that the
red serpant, whisky, was not the
cause this time, but Satan in a negro.
The negro Red is a bad coon, and it
is said be snapped his pistol on a
man in Cordele a few njghts ago.
As to the killing we get the Grovania
letter to the Telegraph :
“There was a very large negro pic
nic held near lr;re yesterday. Some
of the negroes were quite boisterous,
which resulted in the killing of one
negro named Bob Pino.
are the particulars of the killing:
Bob Pine, a negro from near Perry,
G*., came up to a negro known as
Alabama Bed and handing him $5
asked him to change it. Alabama
Red took the bill, put it in hie pocket
and drew his 44-calibre pistol and in
stead of changing the bill he deman
ded Pine to give up the rest of Ills
cash. Pine was frightened and turn
ed to run He had made but a few
steps when Alabama Red shot him
in the back just above the hip, the
ball mnging upward. Alabama Red
then took the balance of Pine’s mon
ey, about $3, and went about the
crowd boasting of his crime. Pine
died on the ground in about an hour.
The other negroes were too afraid
of Alabama Red to attempt to
arrest him and ran whenever he
came toward any of them, but he
w as arrested as he boarded the shoofly
train by the conductor and baggage
master and taken to Elko and turned
over to a bailiff, who carried him to
Perry jail. He is a notorious charac
ter and the negroes are glad he is be
hind the bars.”
