WEEKLY 5 TIMES.
J*F FOUCHE dt JOUXSOX.
J. A. FOVCHE, Editor.
Entered at tbe postoffice at McDonough
Ga., as second-class mail matter.
McDonough. Ga., Nov. 20, 1891.
For Congress.
Already speculatiou is be indulged as
to who will represent the new sixth dis
trict in Congress.
Numbers uf candidates are being
mentioned, and as Henry is now iu the
sixth, and equally interested, we give
some of the gossip going the rounds.
By the way, we take occasion to re
mark just here that the other counties,
while inspecting the available timber,
should not overlook the fact that Hen
ry possesses sons who might fill the bill
with credit, and is entitled to consider
ation. At the proper time, names can
be furnished, and she may yet take the
plum.
In connection with a number of names
mentioned, the Barnesville Gazette
gives a lot of interesting gossip on the
situation; but would it not be well
enough for all the brethren to hold on
and see if the Alliance proposes to do
anything. Has it occurred to you that
thev may take a hand in time ? And
if then, what? “Something will drop”
—see if it don't.
The Gazette says:
“Hon. Robt. Whitfield, of Baldwin,
was on the committee that arranged dis
tricts as they are at present, and it has
been stated that he opposed the present
arrangement. He, too, wants to repre
sent the district, and as Jasper was his
old home, he wanted it to remain in the
Sixth. Though he failed in retaining
Jasper, he is yet hopeful, and will in
all probability be a candidate for this
high office. He is well qualified, and
he has a chance for election equally as
encouraging as any other prospective
candidate.
A member ol the re apportionment
committee states that there was not a
district in the Sute that wanted Spald
ing county. Not because it was not a
good county, but because Griffin usual
ly “wants the earth,” and generally
succeeds in getting her share, or more,
of whatever is in reach.
In this connection, it is already ru
mored that Judge John I). Stewart is
becoming tired of private life, having
been out of cougress a few months, and
that he would not consider himself sac
rificing too much to again go to IV ash
ington to serve his people. Judge
Stewart has a great many brethren in
the district who would be only too glad
to cast a vote for him, besides, they
would lend him a helping hand,
Judge John I. Hall is said also to
have some inclination in this direction,
and although he enjoys a very fine law
practice, he could easily be induced to
go to Washington, by offering him a
sufficient number of votes. What
pudge Hall is thinking of is not known,
but it has been intimated that he thinks
he could do the country good if his fel
low citizens would send him to cou
gress. No doubt Griffin will lie heard
from in due course of time.
Butts county also has one or two
men who have been mentioned in this
connection. The Rev. Mr. Atkinson
and Hon. Marcus W. Beck.
Whether it is true or not, the state
ment has beeu made that while doing
the duties of au alliance lecturer, the
Rev. Mr. Atkinson has beeu making
au active cauvassfor congressional hou*
ors. He is an allianceman of the “true
blue” profession, and who knows but
what the statement is correct? Hon.
M. W. Beck has been in the Georgia
Senate and is a man who is rapidly ris
ing in the estimation of the people.
Pike has a number of men who
would fill the office with honor. For
example, we mention: Hon. J. S. Pope
of Zebulon, Cant. B. M. Turner, Col.
J. J. Rogers, Col. S. N. Woodward,
Hon. R. J. Powell, or Col. J. F. lied
ding. It is true these men are not pol
iticians, but they are competent and
would make safe men in this high of
fice. They are as well qualified and
just as deserving as any of the other
candidates, and we know of no reason
why Pike should not present one of
them as a candidate for Cougress.
Does Protection Protect?
Certainly, in one instant, it does.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the great protec
tion against the dangers of impure
blood, and it will cure or prevent all
diseases of the class. It has well won
its name of the best blood purifier by
its many remarkable cures.
The highest praise has been won by
Hood’s Pills for their easy yet efficient
action. Sold by all druggists. Price

The farmers around here are making
preparations to sow wheat more exten
sively than for several years past. This
is a step in the right direction we think,
for it will enable them to rest their
lands, if they don't realize much from
this wheat crop, and thereby get a bet
ter production out of the lauds the fol
lowing years.
While out driving with a friend re
cently we came iu contact with a trio
of hickory nut hunters from McDon
ough and from the quauity they had
sacked we suppose the hickory nut
crop is good.

total eclipse, aud at seveu o’clock and

time.
Your Scribe aud lady attended the
annual conference of the M. P’s. at Ce
der Grove church, in DeKalb county.
It was our pleasure while there to lis
.en to the oldest minister on the Geor
gia work—Rev. John Thurman He
has been preaching for 66 years, and
has laken part in 51 conferences. He
preached the first sermon ever deliver
ed in Atlanta, and is one of tbe best
men in the State. Revs. Langford,
Bryant aud Beadles are assigned to the
Henry county circuit.
We never met a more hospitable peo
ple than those of Cedar Grove commu
nity. They have a membeiship of 100
in their church, aud paid their preacher
S2OO this year. Too much cannot be
said of these good folks. Our stay

We aie of the opinion there won’t

ton.
A change is going ti take place some
way or other. There are a great many
places which will lie out on account of
the scarcity of labor. Times are hard
now on the tenant and renter, and that

Hew are of Oinlmenls Tor ('it

v.
as mercury will surely destroy the
sense of smell and completely derange
the whole system when entering it
through the mucous surfaces. Such ar
ticles should never bo used except on
prescriptions from reputable physicians,
as the damage they will do is ten fold
to the good you can possibly derive
from them. Hall’s Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co ,

is taken internally, and acts directly
upon the blood aud mucous surfaces of

Fair Helena, I remember
When in alienee, side bv aide.
We gat and watched the winding riv v
Swift to ocean "lido.
Then our live*, sweet Helena,
Were like that peaceful at.e.im;
Not a ruffle—not a sorrow
Mar'd our happy dn am.
Once—*twai in the evening.
And the hkv was all aglow
With the lingering hum ra\* —
We took the old bateau
And rowed out on the riur,
Far away from listening ears.
And we promised to be ever faithful
Through ihe changing years.

Alas! 1 proved a truant live — .
And tailed to keep the sacred vow.
But in my dreams thy face vtili haunts me;
I see it even now.
And I’d give this world, Helena,
To live o’er those happy days again
To forget my cruel falsehood,
And this bitter pain.
