Spring all winter and win¬
ter all spring.
Reformation is slowly tak
place in the Atlanta Journal.
A whole front page came
from the press the other day
and not a Howell caitoon on
it.
“Dark nights at Christmas
and you’ll have a good fruit
year.” “March never kills
its fruit.” If the blizzard,
accompanied by the snow
storm we had Tuesday didn’t
kill the peaches, these old
sayings may be put down to
be as true as gospel.
The Fairmount News is a
new born babe in paperdom
and we predict great things
for the kid under the guid¬
ance of its dad, Neal Keeffe.
Fairmount is in one of the
finest farming sections in
Georgia and any enterprise
should Nourish there.
Every farmer in the county
should come out next Tues¬
day and hear Mark Johnson’s
speech on the cotton situa¬
tion. He is in a better posi
tion than any man in the
country to tell the cotton
growers about their condition.
It is his business to keep
posted on these matters and
he can give you something
interesting as weil as profita¬
ble to think about.
A gatlinggun is no gun :it
all when it has to contend
with a lot of enraged white
citizens, as was the case in
Chattanooga last Monday
night. The courts had been
lenient enough with the negro
rapist, Ed Johnson, through
his negro lawyers, to grant a
stay of his execution, and as
is most always the case, the
people in that good town took
the law into their own hands
and swung him into eternity.
When a negro is tried before
the court§ aud found guilty
of outraging an innocent girl
he should be legally executed
at once, There is no need of
staying his sentence from
time to time. Let him go on
to the country where he is
bound for and save the peo
pie the necessity of taking
him by force and doing the
work. Death is the penalty
for such crimes and anything
short of death will not be tol¬
erated in any country.
Too Clever.
When Chief Justice Cnase, a
man of great abilities and
maiked characteristics, was pre¬
siding in one of the country
courts of Vermont, says the
Green Bag, an appeal case from
a justice’s court came up before
him so small and contemptible
in its origin that he ordered it
stricken from the docket. The
where , a turkey , , had .
case was
trespassed upon the garden of a
neighbor and got shot for its
degradations. 1 he owner brought
suit to recover damages, and -
failing before the justice, had
appealed the case Judge ^ has ®
was angry, and when he ordered
the case from the docket, said :
Ihe lawyer who consented to
appeal this case ought to be
thrown from the window of the
courtroom. Why didn t he have
the case referred to some of the
honest^ neighbors for settle
"’“Because, your honor,” retort
ed the attorney, getting hot
under the collar, “it was our
intention not to let honest people
have anything to do with it.”
True, this was a neat resort,
but it cost the lawyer : just an
even $o0 for „ contempt , , of court. ,
How Judge Peters Collected.
Some years ago a claim was
placed in the hands of the late
Judge Peters of Bangor, Me.,
against a man who was never
known to pay his bills, says tbe
Boston Herald.
The usual notice to call and
settle to avoid costs, etc., was
sent out, and the man called and
said he would pay the account
the next Saturday night when he
was paid off.
The judge said : “Now, don’t
say you will pay Saturday night
unless you mean to; just take a
few more days and be sure. Say
you will pay next Wednesday.”
“All right,” said the man, “if
I live until next Wednesday 1
will pay that bill.”
Wednesday came, but no man
appeared to settle the bill,
whereupon the judge wrote out a
notice of the death of the man
and put it in the daily paper.
The next day the bill was set¬
tled.

The Amende Honorable.
The Washington newspaper
correspondent says that Col.
Henry Watterson once told him
that lie had always made it a
rule in the conduct of his news¬
paper never to make retractions,
holding that the paper should
assume that no mistakes were
made, says Lippincott’s.
In this connection, Col. Wat
terson said that one day there
appeared in the columns of the
paper the obituary of a man
tolerably well-known
ville. The deceased appeared
the next day in person, and,
naturally enough, demanded a
retraction. Col. Watterson, with
great suavity, explained to the
unfortunate gentleman that the
paper never made mistakes and
never corrected alleged errors.
At this the subject of the obit¬
uary waxed exceeding wroth and
demanded satisfaction.
Col. Watterson then informed
him that the only suggestion he
could think of would be to place
the gentleman in the birth col¬
umn—as a new arrival, so to
speak.

A LETTER
TO PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BUY GOODS
Now I don’t propose to cut anybody's price on Goods for I
am not running anybody’s business but my own, and can hardly
do that. I buy goods as cheap as I possibly can, and sell them
as high as I can, owing to my ability to sell them. The reason
people or merchants get more ior goods than I do is because
thev are better salesman than I am. The plain truth is, we all
^ high our ability will allow us. Now, for instance, I
o
get only 5 cents for Wm. Simpson’s Calicoes, while other mer
chants can get 6 and 7 cents per yard; I get 10 cents for Suspen¬
that other merchants Sell for 25 Cents pair. . i T Sell 1t 20
per
of Granulated Sugar for $1.00, while other merchants can
sell 16 to 18 pounds for $1.00.
So now if you are a businss person and mean the best for
yourself and (font want any taffey, I can and will please you in
goods and prices, Now remember the New Store at Dejour
nette’s old stand where you can buy anything in the General
Merchandise line, from a Paper of Pins to a Cook Stove.
And also remember that I am going to give away absolutely
free a No. 8 Range Cook Stove. Come and see for yourself.
We will be glad to see you.
Yours truly,
HULL KERR.
