HELP THE PUBLIC ROADS TO PERMANENCY, If you can do a nytli it it; for th** building of a system of iJofnl roads for Montgomery comity, do it, if it in nothitig more Ilian to throw a shovel full of clny on the sund hnd*. Many counties of t lu- state have begun the iui|iort un t task oi building suhstfliitml roads, and there i* no reason why thix coun ty should not begin the work, which would prove of iiicstnmibb value. More ami more the value of good roads ix xeeo and iippre eiateil, and we truat that the day ix not far dial itiit w lien t lie put die roads of Mont joinery county w ill have received attention calculated to put them in a (rood condition Thix is not referring to the mere matter of working the public roadx, or censuring the present system, but we mean to say that the public roiidx id the county can and should he built by some permanent system, and when so built can la* maintained at less cost than required to work them in the present met hod . All exchange suggests that the various (?) discoveries of the North Pole were for lln* purposes of gathering matter for the lee tun* platform, to which many ex plorers have taken. Possibly the Kskinios are rubbing up on Kng hsh preparatory to a visit among the humbug loving Americans. Mt. Vernon seems to lie infest ed wdb burglars, ax, aside from the recent postotliee follberv, II number of hollies have been enter ed, with slight losses. The shot gun cure ix the best to he used tor this, and a few doses properly administered will reveal the ident ity of t lie prowlers. As t lie year closes, it im oppor tune to be framing new year reso lutions- inly about three weeks otv, and many subject* to he con sidered. If you feel the effect* id" lligll priee cotton, do nut keep it hid— pay your debt*. Not all of its are cotton raisers. Hawkinxville News Dispatch : ( A number ot our exchanges are publishing (inventor Brown's res ponse to the toast, "Georgia, at the Taft banquet in Savannah, “by request." The editors id these papers evident Is d»> not know a good thing alien they see 0 , <<r they would have printed the governor's speech without request, as ;t was acknowledged to lie the best one delivered on tin* ah *V'* named occasion.

(dlance over the report of State Treasurer and State Hank Kxain iner Brown, which appears in an other column. It shows that tlu ll* posits ip. state ami national banks in Georgia have increased approximately om« hundred mil lion dollars 111 a year. The ligur ,-s arc not exact, f•»r reasons -till ed bv Mr. Brown, but there can le mi doubt that they arc accurate a» tsr as they reach and point straight to the above conclusion. K.verv bank in the state show- a healthy increase—a most gratify ing mgre.tsv— — in deposits. NO SACRIFICE REQUIRED, W huv -e,-n several men dur ing tin* ;m-t few months from Meld and North Georgia, and nearly nil of t hem have inquired for farm or farm lauds for sale— they wish to ptirchuse homes here • in our county—and judging them by tic* men from these sections who have already’ made their homes with 11*. they would make veil desirable fit l/e|ix. We hope that our land owners who have farms and farm lands lor-ale will not. ask extortionate priees, for we very inueli need more good farmers to cultivate l he fertile lands now covered with the gr iwtb of t he forest. But perhaps our land owners need a little warning. Me just ask that (hev remember tln? man ner in which the turpentine and timber—tin* great natural wealth ol this count 1 y—was disposed of at a mere song. Surely mir peo ple will profit by tin* experience d tln* past and will not let the fertile acre.- ot Toombs go ax did I In* t lirpent ine and t 1 111 I .er. When we hear a man boasting that he sold his farm in some I oiler par! of the state and in vested here in imieh better farm ; lands at about one-half tin* price lol* wliieh lie sold, We fee| called upon to warn our friends not to xeil too cheap. While we are all anxious to have good tanners I tom less favored sections become cit izens wit It ns, it does not re quire any sacrifice on our part to old at n this .*1 id, lor when men coni' li,*r<* and see that this is tin* favored section of our great state, they will pay the true worth of tie* farm laud and abide with us. Our public -eh oo ls are now as good ax any in the slate and our public roads are hemg put into tirst class condition, and there is no better place in the south ill which to live than in Wireginxs .Georgia. Let us put forth every elVor! possible to have good fann ers take up their abode with its, but make 110 sacrifice and require nolle of them,—Toombs County Local. \tluiilu .louniul: —lt is whis pered that Colonel Bryan ix wor rying whether lie should make prohibition, transmigration, pro I destination or infant baptism the v Uni issue this t line.
