Numbers of visitors will doubtless

No enterprise should be started in a
town without enlisting the co operation
aud kind words of the entire people.
Kind words do a power of good, but
croaking will hinder aud work evil.
Dy cultivating cordial feelings of friend
ly identity we can infuse a spirit of lo
cal patriotism that will beget harmony,
strengthen energetic purposes, and
acheivf wouderful success. The fore
going is wise counsel from an exchange
which we cordially commend to our
readers.
Oar Favorites.
Wedo not Kke to boast of our own
accdhtplishments, but the followiug
items are from our favorite exchanges,
and we must be pardoned for luauife*
ting our appreciation by reproducing
them:
“The Henry County Weekly is
one of the best weeklies in the state.
It came out last week all *liome print
and was full of good reading.’’—Madi

“The Hknky County Weekly 'is
one of the neatest papers that comes to

Governor Nortben sees danger ahead.
In a recent article he says :
“We are rapidly coming to a
ism and destroying the principles of,re
publican government when a few men
of self-constituted authority assume' to
make opinions for their fellows, aud
dictate public policy that others must
blindly indorse and pursue. Great
principles underlie and uphold the fab
ric of successful government. They
cannot be disturbed by designing men
if the people are alert aud watchful.
Everything is not progress that claims
to be. There are mauy false lights iu
reform, as there are many quacks in
professions. There are many pigmies
among statesmen who have more lungs
than brains, and many importers anidtjb
ministers who have more mouth than
morals.’’
What It Costs
Must be carefully considered by the
great majority of people, in buying
eves necessities of life. Hood’s Sarsa
parilla commends itself with special
force to the great n.iddle classes, lie
cause it combines positive economy with
great medicinal power. It is the only
medicine of which call truly lie said
“100 Doses One Dollar,” and a bottle
taken according to directions will aver
age to last a month.
In Memory of B. F. Barham.
Hampton Lodglc, No 17C3, K. of

Whereas, God iu his alwise provi
deuce, has seen fit to take Irotn oar
midst our Bro. B. F. Barham, on
April 18th, 1891. By his death a
thrill of sorrow has l>een sent through
our heart, falling with crushing weight
upon the hearts of his loving wife and
devoted children, who have been be
reft of a fond and affectionate compan
ion, and a kind and devoted father;
but in the midst of our sorrow we
gather comfort from the fact that he
had registered his bereft ones among
the widows and orphans of tins noble
order of Knights of Honor, whose
mission of love and charity has been
sent to comfort the troubled aiyl dis
tressed widows aud orphans all over
our land. Therefore, be it
Resolved, Ist. That we mourn aud
sympathize with the family in their
great bcreavment on account of the
irreparable loss of a husband aud fa
ther, may they bear this great alflictiou
with Christian fortitude, looking unto
and trusting in the great God of mer
cy and love, who has promised to be a
husband to the widow and a father to
the fatherless.
Resolved, 2nd. That in the death of
Bro. Barham we feel that the brother
hood has lost oue of its most devoted
members in whose heart the interest of
the order hail a constant abiding
place.
Resolved, 3rd. That these resolu
tions be transcribed on a blank page
in the Lodge Journal and the family
be furnished with a copy, and that they
be given to the county paper for pub
lication.

perior Court.
We, the grand jury chosen and
sworn for tho April term. 1801, of
Henry Superior Court, beg leave to
make the following general present
ments :
We recommend that Island Shoals
road, near the horse lot of Has Dick
erson be changed back to the old road
where it originally ran, and the road
commissioners of said district summon
all the hands in said district to remain
and put said road in good order.
We recommend that L. 11. Thomp
son be relieved trom keeping np the
bridge near his house on the Key’s 1
Ferry road, and the eonnty assume
that duty.
We further recommend that the Me
Donough city council at once fix the
j branch at the 'Tomlinson crossing, and
jif they cannot do it, then for the Or
dinary to have it done.
We recommend the Ordinary to pay
G* L. Thrasher hack the money that
he paid for a convict, or so mnch of it
as was not worked out by said convict j
We recommend that a bridge be
built across South river at Island
Shoals, the Ordinary to ednfer with the
commissioners of Newton county, and
have it built jointly. Also to have the
bridge on Cotton Indian river below
W. G. Turner’s, on the McDonough
and Covington road, repaired at once.
And farther, we do earnestly recom
mend that the Ordinary have the Road
Commissioners to see that the public
roads are well worked and put in good
condition by the next term of court.
We also recommend that the Ordinary
see the railroad authorities and have
them put plank at every public cross -
■ ing, inside and outside, the same to lie

the refuse running from jail he kept
from running down to street, and that
the Ordinary employ some one to clean
the boxes at least every two weeks,
and that the sam* have an enclosure

We recommend further that the
County Judge’s salary for ctimiual
business bo S2OO per annum, instead
of $Ut», and we request our Represen
tative in the legislature to have an act
passed fixing said salary at S2OO.
We recommend tho Ordinary to fur
nish Charles Sloan (colored) and fun
ily provisions for four or five weeks,
until they can make their own support.
This is brought about by afflictions iu
his fam ly.
We recommend that the Ordinary
have built iu each district a court house,

I'OOU FARM.
We beg leave to make the following
report. \\ e find all the buildings in a
fair condition, also find the inmates
perfectly satisfied in every respect.
We have every reason to believe they
are well carred for.
We recommend that there be an
other chimney put at the keepers house,
aud that all the new dwelling houses
be painted with two coats of paiut; and
that the keeper be furnished with a
good wheel barrow for the benefit of
the place; and that the keeper also be
furnished with a journal and ledger so
that he may keep a correct account of
all income and expenditures of the
farm. We think Capt. Pope the right
man iu the right place.
We beg leave to submit the follow
ing concerning the Treasurer’s books.
After a careful examination we find
the books and papers neatly and cor
rectly kept, with proper vouchers for
all money disbursed, and with a bal

We find all the tJrdinariy’s hooks in
good shape with peeper vouchers for

dressed, the amount pakl by him for
. having it done.
We find the Sheriff has all the dock
ets that the law requires, and that he
has kept the same neatly and according
to law, having made all entries in the
different dockets. We believe that
Henry county has one of the best
Sheriffs iu the State, and congratulate
j the good people of Henry county in
selecfing and securing the services of
i such an efficient official as Sheriff Glass
I lias proved to be.
We, the committee appointed to ex-
I amine and report on the office of

By comparing Ibis with last year’s report j
it may lie seen that there is a greater inter- j
< M manifested in the educational cause in j
this county, and could the people
more fully interested, to t' at extent i hat j
they would provide better houses st»d look
| more to the comfort of the pupils, end for
'the taking care of school furniture, then
lal the law provides the board of education j
might consider the plausibility ot furnish- |
I itlg blackboards, maps, charts and other
’ apparatus for the adianri ntcnT of pupils.
I would further recommend that Ibccoun- i
ty lie laid off in sihool districts, that we j
may have regular, tong term schools and
employ Hie host teachers, looking well to
the improvement of our children, thus
showing md appreciation of the liberal ap
propriations, together with flier interest the
general assembly of the Slate and ear Hou- I
oruble State School Commissioner have
rnaaitested in this grand work of educating
the voting. ,
Hoping this may meet with your approv
al, I remain yours most respectfully,
Jams* 0. Daniel,
County School Com’r Henry County.
We recognize the fact that there is a
defect in our public schools, resultiug
from the existence of too many of such
schools iu some neighborhoods. Where
schools are more numerous than the
real needs of a community require it is
not so apt to command the services of
etfi cient teachers. It many times hap
pens that where a good school is in op
eration, with a patronage sufficient to
command the services of a teacher well
qualified it is very much crippled by
the establishment of smaller schools iu
the immediate vicinity. We recom
mend to the proper authorities the pro
priety ot having as few public schools
as are ample to meet the needs of the
country, believing that this wifi insure
the establishment of better schools.
We fuither recommend that the
Ordinary levy a tax of not more than
30cts on the hundred for county pur
poses.
We recommend that these preseut
rnents be published iu The Henry
County Weekly and also in the
Hampton Hustler. Roth papers to
receive SIO.OO each.
In taking leave of Jtis Houor Jas. S.
Boynton we desire tV ex press our full
est appreciation of kindnesses that he
lias shown us during this term of the
Court, and the courteait* extended to
our body and the able manner in which
he has conducted the present term of
the Court. We also return thanks to
Solicitor General Emmet Womack for
his many attentions to this body. Also
to Col Dismitke for his cousel and co
operation in the prosecution of our du
ties as Grand Jurors. Respectfully
submitted.
