Peruy, Thursday, April 14.
“An Unusual Incident.”
As our readers will remember,
the Home Journal last week con
tained an article under the above
heading. That article related the
fact that the grand jury had ex
cused a member of that body and
selected another man to fill his
place. The article was written by
the editor of the Home Journal,
and we reiterate every word of it.
We will say, however, that it was
notour intention to question the
integrity of. the judge, jury, or any
member of that body. Several of
those jurors.have endorsed the ar
ticle in question.
. The man selected by the grand
jury to serve in the place of the
excused member was Mr. S. E.
Burr, editor of the Fort Talley
Mirror. Therefore the Mirror of
last .Saturday contained editorial
comment in connection with our
article, which was intended to re
flect discreditably upon the editor
of the Home Journal.
In that comment the editor of
the Home Journal is charged with
having in two instances, one of
them last week, endeavored to be
placed on the grand jury. This is
absolutely false, and in person we
told Mr. Burr last Saturday after
noon thut the author of the charge
lied. No man,—juror or common
mortal,—can truthfully say that
the editor of this paper ever made
an effort, directly, or indirectly, to
become a member of any jury.
. In the Mirror’s comment it is
insinuated that the article in
the Home Journal, was inspired
by spite. We denounce thiB in
sinuation as absolutely false, as is
every particle of the comment re
flecting upon the editor of the
Home Journal.
We presume the editor of the
Mirror, Mr. S. B. Burr,
wrote the objectionable com
ments.
It is certain that the editor of the
Home Journal, John H. Hodges,
is the author of this article, and
is therefore personally responsi
ble for it.
We do not propose to be drawn
into a newspaper controversy, and
write this much only to publicly
denounce as absolutely untrue
the slanderous charges publicly
made against us.

The disposition of men to veri
fy their opinions operates some
times to their serious disadvantage.
Georgia planters have declared
that the business in which they
are engaged is unprofitable, and
they intend to prove that it is so.
This remark has been made before,
and is repeated because it is good.
The planters want to live in town,
and intend at least that their sons
shall be trained for towp life. Ag
riculture is to be abandoned, or
relegated to the negroes.
A planter of fair intelligence,
and the owner of two good farms,
being disgusted, like the rest, came
to town and secured a clerkship in
a livery stable at about thirty dol
lars a month. He expected to live
and prosper, not knowing that his
clerkship was rather off the line of
promotion. After a few months
of more faithful work than was
habitual to him, he returned to his
first hate, convinced that average
indifferent farming is better tbau
early and late service in a livery
stable.
Another disgusted farmer, wish
ing to better . his circumstances,
took a clerkship in a mullet shop
on Fourth street. He, too, ex
pected to rise. Somehow he seem
ed reluctant to say where he did
business, but he was in town. Like
others who come to town, he learn
ed to work, and perhaps he still
handles stale fish and lives fru
gally.
The streets are full of men
wanting work, and actually a man.
supposed to have influence is dis
inclined to air himself on the thor
oughfares if he has sympathies.
Appeals make him sad.

The question of prohibiting the

of that state next August, as an

_ | not, in justice to myself, allow the
; presentments of the last grand jury
in relation to me to go unnoticed.
I would have much preferred that
thogej presentments should have
contained an exact statement of the
particular instances of which they
complained, rather than a general
statement and complaint as they
did. This would have been but
just to me, and the good people of
Houston could then have formed
an opinion for themselves as to
whether my official conduct justi
fied the conclusion of that body,
that they “took a charitable view
and disapproved my course.” This
is, to my mind, a strange conclu
sion. If a charitable view was
taken, why disapprove? It
true they say they forbear to spe
eially present or indict, because of
that charitable view, but would it
not seem that the same “charity’
would have caused them to state
the full facts? as they failed to
do so, I will here for them.
In the outset, let me say, I do
not impugn the motives generally
of that body. I know that there
were members of it who are above
reproach, and are far from doing
towards me, or any one else, an act
of injustice; but I know at the
same time that there were mem
bers who were exceedingly hostile
to me; that these same individuals
were very active in their search
and I know farther that their dirty
work against me has been accom
plished. I have the proofs to
substantiate what I say. The pre
sentments contain but two items
that deserve notice: First, that
charged “an unlawful price in car
rying prisoners to and from the
county.” As to this, here is the
fact. The law that formerly pre
vailed for a long number of years,
allowed for this service 25c. mile
age. This law was changed a few
years ago so as to allow $2 per day
and actual expenses, but the atten
tion of neither myself noi the com
missioners was ever called to the
change. Every officer of the coun
ty who rendered such service, con
tinued to make accounts as we un
derstood the law, and my accounts
were made under the direction of
one of the commissioners, and
the Clerk of Commissioners inva
riably makes out my accounts.
In doing this, I followed an un-
unbroken custom without knowing
of the change in the law. While
I am aware that some who are de
termined to be my enemies are
prepared to say that “ignorance of
the law don’t excuse,” I can say to
them that while ignorance’don’t ex
cuse for any technical violation,
it is to all honorable men a justifi
cation of the motives that actuated
me. There are cases itt which the
new law will operate as an increase
rather than a reduction of the fee
under the old law* So much for
the first charge.
The second specification is
“charging for dieting prisoners for
a greater number of days than the
prisoners were in” my- custody.
To this I reply with the facts. •
During my official terms I have
had in custody 274 prisoners. Af
ter diligent search of ,the; entire
record, going back beyond the
actions of previous Grand Juries,
errors were found in 2 cases.
These errors aggregate the sum of
($9.50) nine dollars and.fifty cents.
To any one, Mr. Editor, who will
examine my books, it is perfectly
plain that these were entirely un
intentional, and perfectly consist
ent with. my innocence of any
wrong. My transactions with the
county have involved hundreds of
dollars, and would it not be re
markable that ! shonld have made
out a false account for such a piti
ful sum and left the proof upon
my books. A wonderful mole
from a mountain in labor! While
I make no professions as a scien
tific book-keeper, I would submit
this record in comparison with any
merchant,’or any other,who under
takes to keep books. Errors
amounting to $9.50 in four years
on my jail bookl Well, that’s the
showing, and I am perfectly con
tent it should go before the people.
God knows it is hot my purpose to,
wrong any one. Entering upon
the duties of my office, I took an
oath for their faithful discharge.
That oath 1 have kept, and I am
prepared to prove to any unbiased
mind that I have kept it. This
much I have written for my friends.
As to my enemies-(I have some;
who has not?) I will say I have
managed to move along without
their assistance in the past, and
have no fear for the future.

self got a harrow that did the best
—well I wont say. it beat the Acme,
but I think it just as good. My
harrow is so arranged that yon
can run 2, 4 or 6 plows as you like.
I think it will do fine work oh cot
ton the first- plowing. I intend
crossing my cotton withit-' at the
first plowing, running diagonally
across the field. It did spendid
on my wheat. It can be so ar
ranged as to plow out a six foot
corn row at one round. We have
no patent, and don’t intend to get
one. Any of our farmer friends
desiring one can communicate
with Mr. N. L. Allen, at Powers
ville, who will cheerfully give all
the information desired. The
construction of the harrow is sim
ple.' Any ordinary mechanic can

Home Journal ? It failed to make
its appearance last week. Some
mistake of the postmaster, -no
doubt.
Mrs. Belle Rutherford, of near
Columbus, is again among her
friends at Powersville, being the
guest of Mr. and Mrs. Scatter-
good. Mrs. Rutherford is a lady
of amiability, yet witty and full of
repartee. Therefore she is always
a welcome visitor among her many
friends.
Mrs. Sue King is also a guest of
Mr. and Mrs. Scattergood. She will
spend several weeks with them.
Miss Annie Harper, a charming
belle of Byron, spent last-week
at Powersville with her aunt, Mrs.
L. P. Warren.
Miss Ella Ross, of Florida, sis
ter of Mrs. A. C. Cliett, will arrive
at Powersville in a few days to
make her future home with her
sister. Her many friends will
give her cordial welcome.
I regret to see that so little in
terest was manifested in the meet
ing at the court house on the first
Saturday; only twelve men pres
ent. Not much enthusiasm these,
Mr. Editor, it seems. As the old
saying is, “Every man for himself
and the d—1 for all.”

No doubt the farmers of this
section are glad to see the weather
more settled than for weeks past,
as the planting of cotton is now
the order of the day with them.
Also, the early gardens are begin
ning to resuscitate.
It is generally thought by the
people of this locality that the
fruit crop has been seriously dam
aged by the past cold weathsr.
Bad stands of corn are reported
hy the farmers around Byron.
Mr. Willie Warren and sister,
both of Dallas, Texas, who have
been the guests of Mr. T. D.
Warren, of this place, left last
Monday for Powersville to spend
a while with relatives there.
Miss Katie Wiggins returned
last Monday from a visit to her
mother at Fort Valley.

Ga., is spending a few days with
