MR. BALLENOER RETIRES.
With the last issue of this paper, my
connection with same as associate edi
tor, ceased.
Aly connection with The Sentinel
has indeed been pleasant, and I have
always hud the hearty co-operation of
the public, which lias been helpful and
gratifying throughout my connection
with the paper. My best endeavors
have been put forth, and 1 have every
evidence that my work has been appre
ciated by the patrons of the paper, for
which i am very grateful.
My relation with the paper lias been
exceedingly pleasant, and I severed my
connection with it only because I de
sired to enter llie field of lire insur
ance. 1 will from this date be with
Cobb Bros., of thiscily.
1 sincerely trust that the many
friends and patrons of The Sentinel
will continue to give the paper their
warm support in the future, as they
have in 1 lie past. for then it w ili remain,
as in the past, one of the widest circu
lated and most influential organs in this
section of the State.
Very respectfully,
G. A. Bali. eager.
TO THE PUBLIC.
As will be seen from Mr. Ballcnger’s
card, printed above, Ik* is no longer
with The Sentinel. Fm two years he
has labored faithfully willi the paper
as my associate editor. He lias the
best wishes of this office in his new field
of labor and sincere thanks for his
kindly expressions for The Sentinel.
J. AV. Bivins will, in future, be the
only editor and publisher, and will con
tinue to hold the paper up to the best
weekly published in this section.
31 r. AV. A. Snow has accepted a po
sition with us, and is too well known
to need an introduction to the people of
this section. Remember,we are turning
out job work at wholesale prices, and
that now is the time to place your or

ABOUT DOOLY COURT.
With about 150 cases on the civil
docket set for trial this week, Dooly su
perior court dragged along for three
days and adjourned for the balance of
the week on account of nothing to do.
Passing cases over to the next term of
court on account of absent parties and !
witnesses was the principal feature of
the court.—A'icnna News. i
Court adjourned Wednesday night
until next Monday. •
Just why it was done, we are not pre
pared to say, but the excuse is given
that the court ran out of business.
That is strange, since there is busi
ness enough on the dockets to run the
courts a whole month if the cases could
be brought to trial.
We arc not prepared to criticise any
body for this state of affairs.; we just
feel indignant and can’t help it.
The cases set this week seem to have
been exhausted by continuance, as
only three or four went to the jury.
AVe learn that some of the cases set for
this week will be called next week, but
we don’t know what will be done when
that time comes.
The criminal docket will be taken up
Monday, provided the court is not ad
journed over till another year or two.
There is plenty of business in the
courts, and there ought to be a remedy
for this adjourning evil.
There may be a good excuse for it,
but the tax-payer and the voter have
not been so informed.
The grand jury has adjourned to
Monday week. AVe understand that
they are doing some good work.—
Vienna Progress.
[Editors Smith and Adkins are on the
grounds and are evidently well in
formed, else surely they would not
make the serious complaints in the
above articles.]
The Macon Telegraph made a hit in
getting out the mid-night McKinley
extra.
The way of the transgressor is hard,
but some people have a way of dodging
justice.
A regular passenger schedule has
been out on the new road from Pitts to
llawkinsville.
There is many a slip betwixt the cup
and the lip—especially when the other
fellow holds the cup.
Some people who prevaricate to carry
a point, often cause more truthful peo
ple to sulfur hardships.
Some people suffer innocently, and
seem powerless to help themselves;
others are more fortunately favored.
Svm Jones and Sam Small are to
stump the slate in the interest of pro
bibition, and they will make it a “hot
time in Georgia” when they do.

nights, for miles and miles, hunting

Cotton is being hauled to Cordele in
wagons from the extreme corners of
the county and from adjoining coun
ties. Cordele is the cotton market of
this section.
Guerry is attracting more attention
at present than all the other candidates
combined, but, it is said, while Joe
Terrell is saying nothing, lie is “sawing
wood.”
The clay from excavations for new
buddings can be utilized to groat ad
vantage upon the streets. The city
will, no doubt, take the same view
make use of it.

Jim Barker, the Atlanta negro, who
was first to lay hands on Oxolgosz, who
shot President McKinley, spoke the
truth when he said the anarchist would
have been killed in Georgia.
Our observation is that Guerry made
a fine impression upon the people by
his speech at A’icnna last week, and
there are many strong and outspoken
Guerry men in Dooly today, who had
not spoken out previous to the speech *
I see the press has me down among
campaigners. They may be more of a
prophet than they think. I may give
out a list of “appointments” some of
these days that will stir the red-nose
rascals very deep —Sam P. Jones, in
Atlanta Journal.
The attempt of those newspapers
that are against Guerry, to prejudice
the public against him by misrepresent
ing his position, had better give him
credit for honesty and truthfulness,
else their efforts against him will re
dound to the good of the candidate for
governor from Bibb.

If Governor Canrller had exercised

would have been justified by his pre

displays good judgment. Turner is a
man that all Georgia is proud of.
