Let every Democrat coine nut to

just the right kind to sit around the

Mr. Solomon Gridin, who has been
confined to Ins bed for three weeks
with Typluiriiialaria! fever, is slowly
convalescing, though not able to leave
liis bed yet.
Mr. G, W, Griner and daughter
attended the yearly meeting at Tur
ner’s meeting bouse last Saturday
and Sunday.
Now t)iat wo have a neighbor—
Mr. L. ji, Tygart—who is a lull-
UedgeiJ County Commissioner, we
have some hopes of obtaining some

across Plat creek ?
Mr. Thomas Paulk, one of the pi
oneer farmers of Coffee county and
grand father of the writer’s better-half
besides pum.eroiis others, passed to
his rest ,o;i Sunday night, the 7th
instant, from old age and infirmity,
leaving a wife, near his own age—
eighty odd years. She is in very
feeble health and the indications are
that she will soon join her husband.
Their offspring numbers several score
and none know the aged couple but
to love and respect them.
Mrs. Nellie Daniel, one of Ijieir
daughters, was summoned to the bed
side of the dying hither hut ere she
arrived his spirit, passed away. She
is prolonging her stay with her

—— ——
Itolieiplun’s Budget.
(Im ii., October 17.—-The election
is over and there seems to have been
more than an average amount of
either fraud or gross irregularity,
judging from the report of contests
in the General Assembly elect.
Brethren, things ought not to be so.
The dearest right of a free citi'/.cn is
to vote as he pleases end have his
vote so counted. This is the mud
sill of Democratic government. I
am glad to see the metropolitan
press a unit for honest elections.
The Atlanta Journal did a noble
work for free government when it
recently took so decided a stand lor
I honest elections. In no other way
can our free Institutions , be pre
served. Apd, as ,i beginning, I sug
gest that every name be promptly
struck from the registry list when i
the voter, either by death, removal
hr any other cause, loses his right to I
vote in the precinct, where he is reg
istered. A man, may vote at the
October election, for instance, and
remove before the November or Jan
uary election, but his name stands on
the list as a registered voter, and, as
in our election for free schools last
year, be counts as such. Siiidi meth
ods are not honest expressions of the
will of the people.
' Were I permitted I would whisper
in Gov, Atkinson’s ear, recommend a
State Convention to rectify our State
Constitution.
Not only onr school laws demand
it, but the move for more judges of
the Supreme Court, summer sessions
of the Legislature, and other matters
require a change in our organic law.
Mr, D. Ii. Bishop killed a rabid
dog last week after the mad oanine
bad bitten other dogs and a negro
child. How long will these useless
animals be suffered to kill stock and
endanger the lives of the people?
Candidates come around occa
sionally—the last one, Mr. J. II.
Hutchinson. I am so glad these
gentlemen are gentlemen in fact. I
have yet to hear a Berrien candidate
(and they are many) speak evil of his
opponents.
Cotton at 5 cents and meat at
12 1-2, and the whole country, the
papers say, is prosperous. It is a
grave question to the farmer. How
can I make cotton, eat anil live?
Another is. the rotten cry of sound
money. It is simply a cry to fool
the people. How any man can call
the gold standard honest money
when labor is squeezed out of its
clothes, and the very bread and meat
necessary In work on, is a mystery to
all liiit heartless demagogues. The
people have the opportunity yet a
little while In right their wrongs by
tlie ballot. Anon it wtii take some
oilier method. Bohemian.

“The only true method of doing busints.” It made tlie “Old Reg
ulars” and “Old Reliables,” with their tough and long time prices,
wince. We were given three—only three—months to stay, as the
people would not buy our goods when they found out,their value.
What has been the
RESULT? THREE TIMES
Has it, become necessary for us to move into larger quarters. >
TODAY we are enjoying tlie largest trade. We are
still lighting high prices arid will CONTINUE.
We defy competition,
We welcome opposition,
But under no condition
Will we change our position
As the controlers, originators and leaders of low prices for this
section of Southwest Georgia.
Our New Ymk connection gives us decided advantages, every
day we arc receiving something new and away under value. We
put ottr usual small profit on them and it makes them almost
“walk.” Our Fall trade has been very satisfactory so far.
Thanks to the public, wo have no time to hold down our doer
steps. To-day we arc opening a line of ladies Blazers and Shawls,
also our Third Fall Shipment of Dry Goods, Siloes, Skirts, Etc.
Wo are saving great many people money. Can we do so with
you reader?
