The Survival of the Fittest.
W AYNESBORO. GA.. JUNE 8.1889.
sar T he Twiggs swords which
have been in the custody of the
government since 1SG2 has at last
been turned over to the family.
A woman who was in no way relat
ed to the family claimed these
swords as a gift from Gen. Twiggs,
but the courts have very justly de
cided that she has no claim and
the swords now are in the hands
of the family.
oer t he pension money paid
out by the U. S. government equals
the combined appropriations of all
the European nations, and our pen
sion expenditures are as great as
are the assessments for maintain
ing any of the large standing armies
of the despotism of the old world.
Pensions for the month of May foot
up the suug little sum of $12,000,-
000.
A negro named Phil. Bell
at Matthews, Jefferson county, shot
Mr. J. C. Evans without cause or
provocation. The negro was using
profane language in the presence
of Mrs. Robt. A. Rhodes, and at the
request of the husband of the lady
Mr. Evans remonstrated with the
negro, but instead of desisting he
picked up a gun and discharged
its contents blowing off the top of
the head of Mr. Evans. The negro
made his escape and at last ac
counts had not been arrested.
car The temperance movement
in Boston is a benefit to bookbind
ers. On Sunday the thirsty soul
cannot quench his thirst at the
bar of a hotel unless his name is on
the register as a guest. Last Sun
day at one of the hotels its register
showed the autographs ot so many
famishing bipeds that IS pages were
required to hold them. There are
a great many ways of whipping the
devil rouud a stump, and it is a
favorite diversion of the yood peo
ple.
car The Prince of Wales is too
muchly engaged in doing nothing
to find time for reading, and those
who keep posted with his move
ments say that he scarcely ever
opens a book. But his conversa
tion shows that he is one ot the
best informed men in England on
the general topics of the day. His
dependants and toadies load him,
and then he fires off the reverbera
tions awakening the enthusiasm
of his admiring countrymen.
gST The brother in black is kick
ing with very violent emphasis.
He charges that the administration
is giving all the offices to the “gin
ger cakes” and that the poor “nig
ger” is left entirely out in the cold.
Perhaps Mr. Harrison has been
reading the history of the middle
ages when it was very generally
conceeded that the left handed
sons of the kings, these that carried
the bar sinister always made the
bravest soldiers and the best fight
ers. The Republicans are needing
adherents, true and tried, so that
when the emergency demand action,
the trusted ones may not be found
flinching. We do not know* but that
the president believes that the wise
solution of the negro problem, con
sists in the intermingling of the races
j,and the politician is encouraging
what the elder in the church should
oppose with all his Christian man
hood. \V*e will watch and wait,
and will not take sides until we can
see our way a little further. But in
the meanwhile we would advise
“old cuff” to keep a stiff upper lip
and hold the fort as long as there is
a single grain of sand left in his giz
zard.
MIL MPlirilKY AMlTnK SCHOOL HO A UP.
Mr. L. A. Murphey is not pleased
because The Citizen did not pub
lish a lengthyand abusive communi
cation against the county school com
missioners, and charges that Tiie
Citizen is under the censorship
ot the chairman of that board. The
entire board of school commission
ers has no more influence in con-
troling the action of The Citizen
than has Mr. Murphey or even the
man in the moon. The communi
cation of Mr. Murphey was not pub
lished because of its length and ex
ceedingly “personal personalities.”
Such articles are not in good taste,
and we would prefer to furnish
other kind of reading matter for
our subscribers. If parties desire
to air their grievances, their arti
cles must come to us as advertise
ments, we will not receive them
as communications. We are not
the guardians of the school board,
i't'd hope that its members have so
discharged their duties, that when
the time comes they will be able to
show cause for what they have
done. They are the public servants
of the county and to some extent
represent the good name of the
people and wo are not therefore
disposed to get up a fight against
them just because some one else
brings the charge. A newspaper
is not intended to act as a medium
in airing private grievances, and
we therefore cannot aid or abet
Mr. Murphey in his warfare. If
his cause is just we hope the god of
battles, will give him the victory.
But it is the imperative duty of the
school board to watch over the in
terests, educational and moral, of
the children of the county, and no
man no matter how high or how
extensive his intellectual attain
ments, or how loug and diversified
his experience, if his moral charac
ter is not good v he is no fit educa
tor for our children. A teacher
should teach by precept and exam
ple, and wlnle he is instilling the
rudiments of knowledge, if he
by his example is at the same time
sewing the seeds of that “evil com
munication which corrupts good
manners,” he falls far short of the
requirements ot his high calling.
We did not attend the trial, when
the charges against Mr. Murphey
were being investigated, and can
not therefore express any opinion
as to the righteousness of the ver
dict. The opinion entertained by
some, that the board ought to li
cense a teacher provided he can
pass his examination; and the com
munity which calls him, should be
the judge of his moral character,
is altogether wrong. It is the boun-
den duty of the board to investigate
all the ingoings and outgoings of an
applicant, and if his daily walk and
conduct is such as to not be worthy
of commendation and imitation,
then we hold that his claims should
be rejected, and some other selec
tion be made, even though a com
munity may feel disposed to pass
by such shortcomings. In as much
as The Citizen is neither the
judge or the jury, the matter must
be left to another tribunal for in
vestigation. The selection of teach
ers is left altogether to the board of
education, and it is of the highest
importance to the people of Burke
county, that they do their whole
duty, without fear or favor for any
man. The grand jury is now in
session, and if the school board has
been direlect in the performance of
its important duties, charges should
be preferred and a full investiga
tion had. The matter is of too
grave and serious import to be dis
cussed on the highways. If such
charges as Mr. Murphey brings are
true, for such wrongs the remedy is
very evident. But if his charges
are but the fulminations ofa kicker
or a sorehead, justice to the useful
ness and influence of the board,
demand that the people be inform
ed so that they can silence the talk
that is so greatly calculated to les
son the influence of a body of men,
whose public actions so vitally in
terest the general wefare of the
county.
THE FLOOD AT JOHASTO 1V.\.
The catastrophe at Johnstown,
Pennsylvania, resulting from the
breaking of a dam is appalling, In
a brief space of time 15,000 lives
were lost and ; $250,000,000 of prop
erty destroyed. The loss of life and
property was as sudden and unex
pected as was the destruction over
whelming and irresistabie. In
Pennsylvania and other states
North ot us rain storms have been
general and unusually severe. On
the Baltimore and Ohio R. R. a
few miles above Johnstown, Penn
sylvania is a resorvoir now owned
by a Ashing club. It is said to be
the largest reservoir in the United
States, being three miles long and
from one to one and a half miles
wide. In some places its depth is
100 feet. The natural lake has been
by artificial means quadrupled in
size. The dam is from 700to 1,100
feet wide. It is 90 feet in thickness
at the base and is 110 feet high, the
top having a breadth of over 20 feet.
One report says that the dam was
subjected once a month to the care
ful inspection of the railroad en
gineers, and the impression prevail
ed that no power less than some
great convulsion of nature could
disturb its firm foundations. While
another report has it that the em
bankment was known to be shaky,
and ':he accident must therefore be
credited to criminal carelessness.
If th is report be true the members
of the fishing club will not only suf
fer in consequence, but will be
mulcted heavily in damages.
There were a number of laborers
at work on the dam and discover
ing the coming danger by the rapid
rise of the waters and the overflow
ing of the walls, they sent messages
to the people below warning them
of the danger. But those warnings
were disregarded; the impression
somehow prevailed that the pent
up waters were not great enough
even were they let loose to endan
ger life. But when the dam did
give way the first rush or wave
of waters carried death and des
truction in their course, and the
force was so powerful that the
strongest structures were swept
away. There was then no time for
escape, and the roar of the waters
equalled the noise of a mighty wind,
and the screams of drowning people
were unheard amid the falling of
houses and the uproar of the long
pent up waters. In less than an
hour the immense reservoir was
emptied, and beautiful towns and
stately structures have disappear
ed from the face of the earth. The
waters have passed on and left
behind them their appalling debris.
Piles of dead men, women end chil
dren lie scattered in every direc
tion, and the air is laden with the
stench from their decaying bodies.
Fifteen thousand human beings,and
the carcasses of animals whose
numbers cannot be enumerated
in the briefest space of time passed
from life 1o death, and there were
not left enough of the living to bury
the dead. And to add to the ter
rors ot the scene, scarcely had the
flood subsided before the congre
gated demons in the shape of ne
groes and Hungarians were plying
their hellish vocation of robbing the
dead.
All over the country the people
are aroused to the necessity of ex
tending aid, and the warm impul
ses of humanity will be exerted
to the utmost towards caring for the
dead and relieving the sufferings of
the living. Large sums of money
are pouring in from every direction
and the fellow feeling of humani
ty is stirred to its deepest depths;
and while New York and Philadel
phia are sending on their hundreds
of thousands, the subscriptions
from smaller towns speak well
for the generosity and humanity of
the country. It is to be hoped that
this warning will be heeded.
There are other localities in the
country subject to the same dan
gers, and freshets and overflows
are becoming of more frequent oc
currence and of greater magnitude.
A few years ago the breakage of
a factory dam on one of the streams
in Massachusetts carried death and
destruction through that section of
country. The effects ot misfor
tunes are somewhat lessened if the
survivors will learn from them les
sons of profitable experience.

Correspondence Citizen.
Girard, Ga., June 4.—Heavy
rains, accompanied by some wind,
visited our section last Thursday.
Mr. William Holland, one of our
most substantial citizens, has been
confined to his room for years with
rheumatism, has been much worse
for the past few days.
Last Wednesday we had the pleas
ure of meeting with several of our
good citizens from the G8th and the
G4th districts, at Ellison’s bridge,
where we had a splendid fish din
ner, and a gala time generally. It
was decided to have another soon,
and carry the ladies.
Last Sunday night, at Bethany
church, Rev. J. S. Lewis held ac
cording to previous appointment a
a service for men only. A good
congregation came out, and the
service was interesting, and we
trust, profitable. Rev. H. Reid, of
Sylvania, is to fill the Bethany pul
pit on the 1st Sunday in July, in
the interest of missions.
Plums are about ripe, and between
the fish pond and plum orchard the
average small boy is happy—and
sickly.
We return thanks to Miss Minnie
Mallard, of Rockville, for a box of
delicious cherries and plums.
Little Miss Mattie God bee, has re
turned from a three week’s visit to
South Carolina, and is welcomed by
her many friends.
Allow us to congratulate The
Citizen on its efforts to serve the
people in every section. The paper
should lead the people, and the peo
ple should help the paper. The
managers seem to be striving to

Rvery season since we commenced business under our pres
ent firm name in 1S7S, we have claimed that our Stock was an
improvoment on preceeding Seasons, but never has the improve
ment been so decided or marked as now. Our stock of Dry
Goods and Novelties for the Spring and Summer of 1SS9 is be
yond the reach of Competition in the South, ai;d we dely New
York and every other market in the United States both on prices
and elegance of goods.
Without goiug into detail, we may say that our Stock con
tains not only everything novel and fashionable to be found at
home and abroad, but we keep the best line of useful, seasonable
goods at moderate prices, in Georgia and Carolina.
Examination and Comparison will prove beyond dispute—
as they have in the past—the truth of what we say, and we
earnestly ask intending buyers to apply these never failing tests.
Samples sent on application, and orders filled with care-
and promptness.
No false promises, no humbug, but fair dealing and satisfac
tion always guaranteed.
