FROM THE CONGRESSIONAL RACE IN
FAVOR OF COLONEL WOOTEN.
Two Letters That Explain Themselves--A
Difference of Opinion as to the Effect
of the Judge's Retirement,
As predicted last week, by Toe NEws,
Judge Guerry has withdrawn from the
race for congressional honors.
His retirement has created more than
(_n:dmary interest, because Lie requests his
friends to support Colonel Wooten as
the race is now made up.
It was thought by some that when
5’ udge Guerry retired he would throw his
influence to Mr. Stevens, and when it be
came known that he would stiil Oppose
that gentleman, though not in the race
himself, speculation was rife as to what
effect his retirement would have.
A great many are of the opinion that
Colonel Wooten’s chances are materially
brightened, while others seem to think
that it will have but little effect either
one way or the other. .
One thing is certain, however, and that
is, in those counties in which Judge
Guerry was the strongest his friends
have turned, enthusiastically, their sup
port to Colonel Wooten, and predict that
under his leadership they will be viecto
rious.
Mr. Stevens and his friends, however,
do not appzar to be at all uneasy, and
say that the Terrell gentleman will carry
every county in the district except one
or two.
As the campaign progresses it becomes
more interesting, and there now promises
to be a number of new develcpments be
fore the nominating convention meete,
The following interesting letters, writ
ten while Judge Guerry was holding
court at Blakely last week, tell of his
withdrawal from the race:
Hon. J. H. Guerry, Blakely, Ga.:
DrAr Sir—Since now you are no
longer in the race for Congress, I think
it would be of great interest to your
many ardent friends ard. supporters for
you to giye expression as to the claims
of the two remaining candidates now in
the field, Col. Wooten and Mr. Stevens.
Yours very respectfully,
T. M. HOwWARD,
CL’n Dem. Ex. Com. Early Co.
T. M. Howard, Ch’n Dem. Ex. Com.
Early County:
Yours of this date received. In my
judgment Maj. Wooten is one of the
ablest men in the district, and being
qualified for the position every way, I
believe he ought to be the choice of the
democratic voters of the district, as the
race is now made up.
Respectfully, #
J. H. GUERRY.

About Memorial Day.
Memorial Day will soon} be here—a
day most sacred to all Georgians: The
Confederate dead in many cemeteries
will be lovingly remembered.
Will they be in Dawson?
To the noble women of the South this
duty is specially entrusted, and they,
above all others, are looked to to keep
in remembrance :he deeds of those who
perilled all that was cear for home and
country.
Noble dust sleeps in our cemetery.
On each mound let the flowers of
spring be scattered in loving remem
brance by tender hands.
We place this matter before the ladies,
and suggest that they make arrangements
for the proper observance of Memorial
Day.

How Arethe Folks?
“Oh they are all well except mother,

worn out by household cares, exposure,
and over-work. No wonder she gives
up at last and takes to her bed. But oh!
how much brighter the family fireside
would be if mother's chair was not va
cant. The doctors don’t seem to do her
any good. She says their medicines
don’t seem to go to thespot. She feelsso
weak and longs for strength. ‘Oh give
me strength,” she murmurs. Why not
give her the remedy her system craves?
Her impoverished blood and shatterred

ice cream has been contined to his family
alone, and for long years the intrinsic
merit of his cream has been such as to
excite in others the desire to know his
valuable secret of preparation, but so far
no one knows but Mr. Wallace the ingre

cream. The proof of what we write can
readily be obtained by trying this ice

- LINGO IN LIMBO
'

A SON OF THE AMERICUS CHIEF OF
| POLICE
D
{Arréstegl in Dawson on a Telegram--Do
! mestic Troubles and Two Stealing,
| Scrapes at the Bottown of It.
Saturday morning Chief Hatcher re
ceived a telegram from Americus re
questing the arrest of George Lingo, a
young white man.
Lingo was found about ten o'clock,
and was arres ed and put 1n jail, and the
authorities of Americus notified.
Lingo was drunk when arrested, and
the bruises and black spots on his face
gave him the appearance of having re
cently been enzaged in a fight.
Baliff Hawkins came down from
Americus Saturday afternoon and re
turned that night with the prisoner.
The Americus officer says that the
career of Lingo, who isa son of the
chief of police of that city, has been a
checkered one lately,
Lingo has had domestic troubles, and
he and his young wife recently separat
ed. His present troubles and bruised
face are largely due to that fac., In
Americus, the other day, he had a fight
with another man about his .wife in
which he sustained a black eye and was
atterward sentenced to a term of ten days
in the chaingang. |
While serving his sentence a warrant
was sworn out charging him with steal
ing a suit of clothes, He was taken be
fore a magistrate and a bond of %25 was
assessed. While endeavoring to give the
bond Lingo gave the officer the slip, and
started in the direction of Dawson.
On his way here he came across the
coats of a number of gentlemen who
were out fishing, and relieved one of
them of a watch that had been left in
the pecket. |
After reaching Dawson Lingo made
several attempts to pawn the watch,
and finally gave it to Wm. Lingo, a half
brother, who has been in Dawson some
time doing brick work. Wm. Lingo
left Dawson during the day with the
watch, -but the officers think they have !
him located.
It is very probable that he, too, will
soon be in the meshes of the law.
