The Jlawkimville Dispatch and News
has declared for Prof. W 11. Merritt,
of Valdosta, for State School Commis
sioner.
Tillman art the name! which should
lie blotted out from memory and South
Carolina should remember it by reward
no more forever.
It’s a knotty problem to convince the
public that a real partisan newspaper
can fgive the other fellow equal and
exact justice nt all times.
The grand jury has ordered the last
of the court house bonds paid off and
has lowered the tax rate in Dooly
county to three mills.
It’s coming—dispensary or anti-dis
pensary—here in Dougherty county.
The issue hasn’t been formally raised
yet, hut there is lots of talk about it.—
Albany Herald,
“This is tough luck,” said Hain,
mournfully, as lie leaned over the side
of the ark. “What’s wrong now?”
queried Shorn. “Why, all this water
to fish in,” replied Ham, “and only two
worms on board.”
The Georgia Baptist Convention will
meet in Rome March 26to 30, inclusive,
and the railroads have given a rate of
one and one-tenth fare for the round
trip from all points in Georgia within
300 miles of Rome.
The Augusta Chronicle states a fact
and then asks a pertinent question in
the following: “The new'spaper is
called on to help every interest in the
community, but does every interest in
the community think about helping to
support the newspaper?”
A Kansas editor pays the following
tribute to his “girl -.” “There is glad
ness in her gladness when she’s glad—
there is sadness in her sadness when
she’s sad—but the gladness of her glad
ness nor the sadness of the sadness is
nothing to her madness when she’s
mad.”
It is estimated that the value of land
along rural delivery routes has increas
ed from $2 to $5 an acre. Then, too,
there is an educational value in the
rural free delivery, in that thousands
more magazines and periodicals are
finding their way to people’s homes.
According to Uncle Sam, the best
authority, Cordele shows the lowest
death rate in proportion to number of
inhabitants of any city in Georgia, and
yet we know of some up-the-country
people who believe Cordele is a veri
table death hole, instead of being the
healthiest city in Georgia.
Many of Mr. Terrell’s friends are
criticising him for not replying to Mr.
Guerry’s attacks, replete ns they are
with sarcasm and ridicule, and they
express the opinion that he should hit
back, even if ho does not enter joint
debates, a decision in which they have
heartily concurred.—Atlanta Cor. to

Fleming,the efficient superintendent
our public schools, for bis valued

months.” It will prove quite interest
ing to all who read it.
-
That ‘politics make strange bed fel
lers” is fully illustrated by the present
line-up in Doo'y county, The candi
date of even two years ago would hard
!y recognize the situation should he
meet it in the middle of the road in the
broad-open daylight.
'The Skntinkl has repeatedly an
nounced that it would take no stock
in county politics further than treat
all candidates fairly and impartially
and we trust that any candidate who
feels himself slighted by the Sentinel
will call and explain the slight so that
we may say something nice about him
too—provided there is anything nice to
he said—and we guess there will be.
There is a newspaper in Kansas
whose motto is‘‘Lie, steal, drink and
swear,” and it is thus explained by the
editor: When you lie let it be down to
pleasant dreams;when you steal, Jet it
be away, from immoral associates;
when you drink, let it be pure water;
when you swear let it be that you
will patronize your home paper, pay
your subscription and not send your
job work away from home.

Resolutions,
Adopted by The Teachers Insti
tute of Dooly County, Upon
the Death of Miss Nora Ingram
She was born November 9, 1878,
an d was taken from this world of
sorrow October ]6, 5901.
She joined the Baptist church at
Ml Vernon under the pastorage of
Rev. G. T. Jennings.
In the death of this young lady
the Institute loses one of its best
members, and we feel this sad loss.
She was a Christian lady and her
friends were numbered by her ac
quaintances.
She was a good worker in the
school-room and institute. May we
all imitate her example, and live
nobler, better things and the
vancement of His cause and the
enlightenment of our country.
Therefore be it Resolved, — That
the Institute has lost one of its most
worthy members.
Resolved, Second, That we strive
to carry on the work she began, to
where it is most needed.
Resolved, Third, That we extend
our sympathy to the bereaved
families, and that a copy of these
resolutions be sent to the Cordele
Sentinel, the Vienna News and
Vienna Progress.
