A DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS
Judge Griggs, at Home on a Visit, Is
Encouraged Over the Outlook for
Party Success in November.
Hon. J. M. Griggs, chairman of
the democratic congressional cam
paign committee, reached home from
New York Friday morning to spend
a few days with his family and vote
for the democratic nominees in the
staie election today. He will leave

til after the elections in November.
In conversation with The News
Judge Griggs expressed himself as

confidence all along the line, and he
Says that reports from every section
of the country indicate thatthedemo

Judge Griggs is of the opinion
that the nomination of Wm. R.

John Robinson’s Parade Has Earned
Right to the Soubriquet.
On this, its eighty-third triumphal
#our, the John Robinson Show will
pay Dawson a visit on Saturday, Oc
tober 13, and for two performances
will delight the lovers of all that is
good in the circus world. Its un
paralleled success, covering a period
of more than four-score years, is the
best attest of its popularity.
One of the elementary features of
its success and one that has always
been the recipient of much attention
is the (acknowledged by all) great
gst of circus street parades.
Letter to W. E. Hickey, Dawson, Ga.
Dear Sir: There’s twice as much
horse in one horse —it may be a
mare—as there is in two or three
others together.
So with paints too. If a painter
can do vour job with 10 gallons De
voe for $5O, it'll take 12, 15 or 20
of other paints; and the cost of a
job 1s about $5 a gallon, whatever
the paint may be.
There are paints adulterated
three-quarters only one quart of
paint in a gallon—he's got to paint
four gallons of rubbish to get one
gallon of paint. The worst horse
vou've got is as good as that paint,
and he’ll go as far.
The less-gallons paint is the paint,
as the most-horse horse is the horse.
Yours truly, F. W. DEVOE & CO.

ALDERMAN BALDWIN WILL QUIT COUNCIL
«+The People Are Too Hard to Please,’”’ Says the Well-Known Offi

Alderman A. J. Baldwin has

and some claims against the city
were settled at figures which he
thought were too high. He was of

Mr. Baldwin has been connected
with the city government either as
mayor or alderman for many years,
and perhaps knows more about the
affairs of the city than any other
man in Dawson. He has given the
people long and faithful service, and
in his retirement they will lose a
valuablé official. .
If his resignation takes effect be
fore the second Wednesday in De
cember a successor to the retiring al
derman can be elected at the regular
city election, but if it does not be
come effective until January 1 a
special election will have to be held
to fill the vacancy.

THAT DEPOT IS FINISHED
Seaboard’s Magnificent Structure for
Passenger Accommodations Is
Thrown Open to the Public.
The new passenger depot the Sea
board railroad so heartily and enthu
siastically agreed to erect in Dawson,
and upon which work was begun
with so much alacrity when the mat
ter of better passenger accommoda
tions was first agitated, has been
completed. It was thrown open Fri
day, and surrounded by all of its
magnificence the traveling public
purchased and received their little
pieces of pasteboard from the proud
and smiling agent.
While the structure is not alto
gether as large and imposing as the
terminal station in Atlanta, it is
some better than the little boxes that
have done duty for the road here as
waiting rooms for sOo many years.
By crowding it will perhaps hold a
half-dozen or so more people, and
also has the added advantage of be
ing reached without the necessity of
a ladder.
Of course, the Seaboard is very
Iproud of its handsome new structure
and improved facilities in Dawson.
It is needless to say that the people
are bhesides themselves over it.
