wholesome fear in which he is held,

a majority vote on any measure be
advocated, either in the Senate or the
House, and in the former every one

make than to destroy them. In the
past men built their great temples and
catnedrals with no thought of acous

ed echoes rolled freely amid the groin-
logs of the roof, down the rows of
sculptured columns and round and
round the nave. With wires strung
here and with tapestries spread there,
many of the echoes of the old world

are echo experts—builders acquainted
with the science of acoustics whose
specialty Is echoes' destruction. Some

The President probably had In mind
Uhe troubles he would have with Con-

consider the subject of a third term.
"He was recently quoteJ as saying: “I
would be the weakest man the party
could put up In 1906, because by that
I will have a large number of

was the practice of many hotels to

Iwish to most emphatically deny any
and all such rumors. I have tried to
administer the office of treasurer hon
estly and conscientiously, and I ran
for re-election on my own merits.
From the handsome majority I re
ceived over my honorable opponents,
the people approve of my administra
tion of the office of treasurer of Ware
county. To those who supported me
I am very grateful and will endeavor
to merit their approval in the further
conduct of my office. To those who
oppsoed me I have no ill feeling what
ever. I feel highly honored by the

8ATUROAY' PRIMARY.
Saturday’s primary passed off quiet
ly and,to those who were nominated,
very satisfactorily. There was no
buying and selling votes and no use of
whiskey so far as the Herald knows.
It was a fair and square, good natured
primary, and one that brought out the
entire strength of the party. There
will be no kicking or contests and the
ticket nominated will be elected.
Ware county's primary election Sat
urday demonstrated how completely
and effectually the negro Is put out of
business by this method. Everybody
seems to be in good humor today and
the Herald insists that by gons be by
gonea and we are quite rare that har
mony will continue to prevail in the
Democratic party. The Herald con
gratulates the victorious candidates,
and would If necessary tender sympa
thy to the defeated.
Do not get mad with your neighbor
if he disagrees with you about politics.
He is only exercising the same right

Bo tolerant with the one who differs

good advice. Brother Benns, and we
would all be much better off if we
paid more attention t<? It as we jour
ney along through life. The trouble
Is, we do not stop to think. We too
often misjudge our neighbor and tell
out with him for doing the same thing
that we would perhaps do or say our
selves under the same circumstances.
The good book says “love your neigh
bor as yourself.” How many of ns do
this? We not only tell to obey this
(^Ivlne injunction but oftentimes are
unwilling to even forgive our neigh
bor if be happens to do or say any
thing that offends us, whether it be
intentional or not We should learn
be more charitable toward our
neighbor.—Valdosta Times. t Amen!
