HENRY COUNT (WEEKLY.
BY C. M.SPEER &CO.

THE OFFICIAL ORGAN OF HENRY COUNTY
WEEKLY CIRCULATION, 1800.
Entered at the Post Office, McDonough, Georgia,
aa second class mail matter.
M. SI'EER, Editor.
LIVINGSTON AND STEWART.
There was a large crowd in towu
Tuesday to hear Messrs. Livingston
and Stewart speak. The day was
warm and the frisky thermoneter had
climbed the vitrea's tube and was
monkeying around the hundredth de
gree, but it was comparatively cool as
compared to the ardour of the admit
ers of the tvo Congressional aspir
ants.
Judge Stewart lead off ill an hour
and a half speech, descanting largely
upon the many good things he had giv
en the people of the sth and ihe many
more that he would give them if he
was re-invested with Congressional
harness after the the 4tli of March
1891.
Judge Stewart attacked the farm
er's Sub-treasury bill with great jury,
and declared it a scheme calculated lo
bring uulold hardships ami wiseiy uji
on the people. lie urged that the
people needed more money, alid sug
gested that it could be given them by
oilier and better means. On the
whole the speech was masterly, and
convinced his Mends that lie was on
the right track, but the farmers weie
not convinced to any appreciable ex
tern, and withheld their approbation
until their candidate could be lieaid.
Judge Stewart was loudly applauded
by his admirers, and it was shown by
their applause that lie had many friends
in the audience.
While Judge Stewart was delivering
his speech, that cool and imperturable
Farmer’s Alliancenian, Col. L. F Liv
ingston, was taking notes, and when
Judge Stewart had finished, Col. Liv
ingston rose and delivered one of the
finest ‘arguments ever heard in the
town. Everyone was surprised that a
simple, plain farmer could stand up
and successfully refute the arguments
of so brilliant a man as Judge Siewart.
The arguments of Stewart were
torn into shreds by &e ponderous,
sledge hammer blows m Livingston 'i
eloquence as though it bad been a wov
en gossamer of the brittle winds.
Ilis elucidation of the the Sub treas
uiy plan luts confirmed the farmers of
the county that it is not unconstitution
al, but the duty of the general govern
ment to aid the farming classes by en
dorsing for them. There are but few
farmers iu the county who do know
that Liyingston is one of the most pow
erful debaters in the State; and they
, know that should he go to Washington
lie will down the opposition to the
farmer.
Tliere was a slight misunderstanding
between Judge Stewart and Col. Liv
ingston, on account of some allusions
to Col. Livingston’s record, which
was denied and refuted bv him.
There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, aud until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure 'with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to l»e a constitutional
disease, aud therefore requires consti
tutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. .1. Cheney
& Co , Toledo, Ohio, is the only con
stitutional cure on the market. It is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to a teaspoonful. It acts directly up
on the blood and mucuous surfaces of
the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure.
Send for circulars aud testimonials.

Six weeks to day and no rain yet.
The neighbors think there must be a
donah in the settlement, so your scrib
ler and Mrs. S. concluded that we
would sjjourn among our friends in the
East for a few days, to ascertain,, if
tKMisible, in the eveut that lots should
lie cast, whether they would fall on
our devoted heads. As we journeyed
on we had to pass Mr. Bob Williams,
and upon inquiry found that he and
Mrs. WilliamH. and the entire family
had journeyed toward the same country
on the same mission. Fearing, proba
bly, that they might Ik- the wicked ones,
after tarying among our more favored
friends for a teasonable time, the
thunder began to roar, the lightening
flashed, the clouds rolled, the rain de
sceuded as though we had not been
there. So on Monday, we and neigh
bor Bob returned home better satisfied
that we were not the only cause of the
dearth in our beat, though we do ac
knowledge we bad a light shower while
we were gone. We are now willing
that lots may lie cast if our neighbors
are.
Well, 1 am worried over the bagging
question; I thought it was settled a
year ago, but it seems to lie again dis
turbing somebody, lhe money sharks
are now advocating pine straw for
bagging* I oppose it, seems some fao-
tory or individual, wants to obstruct!
the manufacture and use of cotton bag
giug. to use pine straw will it diminish I
the supply of cotton and advance the
price ? No. Talk aliout eo'toa stalk
libie for bagging, let the (line straw ;
and cotton stalks stay on the land,
where they belong, and the pea vines,
tlicv are giwsl fertilizers, they enrich
the land which is conceded by eve 1 } j
farmer. 1 want bagging made of no
such stuff, it would not decrease the
supply of cotton one ounce, nor ad
vatice the price one mill. Bome advo
cute* palmetto Imaging. <Mi then
foolish, Farmer's Alliaucemeti! have
none of it, have cotton bagging manu
tacluries ; twist it up and beat it up to
to one and one half pounds to the yard
at least; we want no shoddy article.
Three quarter pound bagging was the
cau eof half cent advance in pi ice of
cotton last crop, one and one half
pound bagging will advance the price
one and oue half per cent., became it
will decrease the supply that much
more. The Alliance that used cotton
bagging last fall, lost seventy live cents
on bagging, but they got two dollars
and a bait a bale more by it, thereby a
clear gain of one dollar ai:d seventy
five cents was realized on eveiy bale
sold. If no cotton covering had been
used, that advanaed price would not
have been realized, that is acknowledg
ed by every reasonable man, Borne
pretends to held back, and attribute it
to some other cause, but you will find
on close examination that it is so, and
they are those that want high prices
lor w hat they have for sale, and low
prices f<fr what they have to buy, with
out helping to attain them.
Sir. in my. article of the 23 of June,
1 believe it was, I gave invitation to a
basket dinner to lie given at Locust
Grove on the 1 Gtli day of July, owing
to several religious meetings at the
three different churches at the Grove
at about that time, it is thought advisa
ble by the citizens, and especially the
ladies, to postp me the festivities and
Alliance speaking until the piotracted
meetings are over, and tho ladies can
get rested up. Due notice will lie giv
en ot the next appointment. The arti
cle above refered to was printed over
the signature of “Zupli” which was
unavoidable, from the fact that I did
notrsign my name to it, wdiich aiticle
was no credit or recommendation to
the able pen of “Zupli.” Therefore,
to assume the responsibility of both
that and this, I si„n,

When you visit Griffin again don’t |
fail to walk down and see Fill Morris’s
new bar fixtures. lie has the most I
complete outfit in the State, and will
take pride aud pleasure in waiting on '
his guest while in the city. Mo man
is better known in this section than
Fill Morris, and bis reputation as an
honest whiskey dealer is known from
the Gulf to the great Atlantic.
Mr. Morris owns and operates one
of the largest and neatest corn distil
leries in tite State, and his corn juice
is now equal to the famous "Old
Home Made,” which stood the test
from Dan to Bersheba.
On the 14tliday of July Mr, Morris
will give to the public at largo one of
the biggest barbecues evef given to
any community. Everybody—one
and all are invited.
When you waut anything for the
stomach’s sake or for snake bites or to
make a little camphor, or a little for
your sick wife, or any other purpose,
call on Fill Mortis aud you will be
treated all “O. K.”

There was some kind of a celebra

a political one. They undoubtedly ex
pected a hot day, as a car load of ice
was ordered for the occasion, so they
could cool off.
We hope every county in the State
will Lave strictly democratic primary
nominations, and let every man vote

We feel pained to miihous. ce the
death of Mrs. Biuce Johnson, who
i died after a short illness, and leaves- a
bright little babe behind. We deeply
sympathize with the bereaved.
The little infant daughter of Mr. and
Mis. V’.'iHiarns was interred at Bershe

W e are indeed proud to feel that the
eventful day is at last decided upon, iu*!
stead of the 4tli of July we have the
1 Gtlt as tlie choice of our Brother Alii '
‘incemeii, and as some seem to think
that the invitations have not been broad
enough, we would suggest that some
one of the committee invite Judge
Stewart and others, and let it be thor
oughly understood that it is a Soc'al
Mass Meeting for all who desire to
come and enjoy themselves. So come
one, c 'me alj, and be sure that the .in
dispensable, well filled and savory "bas
ket be not licking, as we
desire to see an “e pluribus
iinum” day of the ldtli of July, 1890.
It begin! to grow hot enough now
.to make politics come out. so, special
announcements of candidates arc being
iiulied to the front. Well, We are de
termined to vote for whom we please,
and it will please us to cast our suf
frage for the lucky man. We want
it fairly and agreeably understood that
we are desirous for the office of coroqj
er, as we want the office that the most
cash is in, so we are calmly awaiting a
committee of citizens to call upon us ;
hence we will not announce as soon as
others
We have ceased to boom the busi

truly represented here by a grand fish

was out in force, the maid the mattn>n

melons and ice cold lemonade, and ev
erybody m high glee for the occasion,
and truly it was enjoyed by all. Not
a drunken man ou the hill. Surely our
city is on the improve.
Candidates are begining to announce
and we are glad to. feel that some of
our best men are iu the field, men in
whom we may trust. Let us not fail
to give them a rousing vote on the 2G,

for men that will represent the people
And not any specialties. We say and
are here to say it, Hurrah for .hdiii |

A GIGANTIC HORSE.
X Oucrr Monster That Has Existed in
& England for Over 1,000 Years.
About tvo miles to tho north of
Lamboume, in Berkshire, England, is
f White Horse hill, on the summit of
which there is a large Roman entrench
ment called Uffington castle. A little
below the castle on the steep side of the
hill facing the northwest is the figure
of a gigantic white horse, the dimen
sions of wf itch extend over about an
acre of ground. Its head, neck, body
and tall consist of one white line, as
does also each of its four legs. The out
lines of this monstrous specimen of the
genus equu are formed hy cutting
trenches in tlgj, chalk, of which the hill
is mainly composed, the ditches being
2or 3 feet in depth and about 10 feet
wide. Tiie chalk of the trench being
of a beautiful white color, and the sur
rounding turf the greenest.of green, the
figure of the horse can be plainly seen
at a distance of twelve miles, and even
farther, it. is siyd, if the sun is sliinmg
j brightly. .A,
A white horse Is knowrf to have Men
the standard of tho Saxons, and some
have supposed that this monster em
blematic figure was made by Hengist,
one of the Saxon kings. Mr. Wise, an
author who has written much of the
celebrated white horse of Berkshire,
brings several arguments to prove that
this figure was made under order of Al
fred during Jhe reign of Ethelred, his
brotiier, mid that tiie figure is a monu
ment to a victory over tiie Danes in
tiie year 871. Other well known writers
are of the opinion that tiie wonderful
white horse is a natural freak, one of
nature’s oddest oddities. Ashmead
Burton thinks that the early tribes
noted the outlines of a horse on the
hillside and gradually worked it into
its present graceful symmetry.
However this may be, it lias been a
custom since time out of memory foi
the neighboring peasants to assemble on
a certain day of each year, usually about
midsummer, to clear away the weeds
from the White Horse and trim the
edges of the trench so as to preserve
the color and shape. Tills task is
known for miles around as “Scouring
the Horse."
A large mound at the foot of White
Horse Hill and almost directly under
the “Horse" is called Dragon Hill.
Here, according to tradition, St. George
killed the dragon. On the top of this
mound, or “barrow,” there is a space
about fifty yards square upon which
not a spear of grass, has grown during
the last thousand years. Tho peasants
say that the grass cannot grow on ac
count of the ground having been poi
soned with the dragon's blood at the
time St. George gave him the fatal
wound. —St. Louis Republic,
• "Down on the Kail***
This is a well known hall slang
phrase used for a cash payment. Of
its history I cannot speak, but I con
fess to feeling startled when I found it,
as it seetns to me, in a parliamentary
deed of King Robert the Bruce. By
indenture dated July 15, 132 G (Scots
Acts 1, 470), a tenth penny was cove
nanted for, payable to the king. On
his part he agreed not to exact certain
pri*-s mid carriages unless ho was (visa
ing through tlio realm, alter tiro cus
tom of his predecessor, Alexander 111,
“for which prises and carriages full
payment should be made super un
guent." (The words are. “Pro quibus
prisiset cariagiis plena fiat solucio super
ungueui.")
1 am aware of the classical use of
the phrase “in ungueui,” or “ad un
gueui,” signifying “to a nicety,” but it
does not seem to apply here. At the
same time th& corresponding French
phrase “payer rubis sur l’ongle" may
make this doubtful. Just below the
passage cited occurs another, in which
payment is to be made “in manu."
Botli in mv opinion refer to ready
money, and I do not hesitate to trans
late "suiier unguern” “down on the
nail.” Hitherto I have supposed the
nail to bo a figure of speech for* the
counter on which the coin was told.
Apparently this is erroneous, as it is
clearly the finger nail which is referred
to. —Notes and Queries.
