was the 6th birthday of his young
est Child! He was born In Win

his parents he came to Perry, Ga.,
in 1863. and in 1864. he entered
the Confederate service as special
courier for Gen! B. J. Hill; a cav
alry commander. He served to
the conclusion of the war.
In 1867 he began the study of
law, was admitted to the bar in
1868, and for several, years he
| practiced his . profession success
fully. In 1872 he purchased the
Home Journal, which he success
fully and acceptably edited until
1880, when he sold the paper to
engage in other pursuits.
In 1873 he married Miss Maggie
C. Mann, of Perry* T daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Joel W. Mann.
In October, 1880, he was chosen
by the democrats of Houston to
to represent them in the Georgia
Legislature, which he did ably,
worthily and acceptably.
In the fall of 1883 he went to
Savannah and
sentments.
Through committees appointed
for that purpose, we have exam
ined the public buildings and pub
lic records, and report as follows:
We find the public records cf
all the county officers neatly and
correctly kept, so far as we are
able to judge.
The County Treasurer reports
that he has[received since the 1st
of January:
—Hr. Geo. W. Killen gave us
several days ago a few pecan nuts

One of the special premiums was
for the prettiest colt.
—We learn from the Enterprise
that Messrs. T. M. Storey and M:
J. Thompson, of Fort Valley, will
soon go to Culloden and open a
buggy and carriage repair shop.
These gentlemen are excellent me
chanics, and we wish tor them a
full measure of sucess. We re
gret, however, that they see fit to
leave Houston county.
—Since 1881 the number of
true bills found-by the grand ju

ly decrrifiiie&i In 1881, the last
ypar of legal whiskey selling in
the county, the gfltod -juries sent
77 true Bills lfito court. This
year there -were only 32 true bills.
This is ah excellent showing for
prohibition, on the criminal side.
% reduction of nearly two-thirds
in 8 years.

He was buried with Masohic
Honors’.
Directly after the outbreak of
the yellow fever at Jacksonville,

Recehtty we published the
statement that 22 Bales of cotton
had been sold in Perry this season
fdr 81,144.17. In connection with
this we offered a subscription to
the Home Journal to the pupil
who would give us the number of
pounds of cotton contained in the
22, bales and the average price
per pound paid for the Cotton.
Three answers have- Been re
ceived as follows!
Master Geo. B! Hunt; 12,713
pounds df cotton.; average price
per pound, 9 fi'ents.
Master Claude Bateman: 13,-
1632-11 pounds of Cotton; 598
pounds per bale; 8 9-13 dents aver
age price per pound. ,
. Master George’ H. Houser 13,-
170 4-13 pounds of cotton; 85d3
average per pound; 598 9-15
pouuds per bale.
Neither answer is absolutely
dprrect, the fault being the inabil
ity of boys to determine .the
total number of pounds of cot
ton, -
The 22J6aleil contained 13,147-
pounds of cotton; the bales weigh
ing an average of 5931-22 pounds;
89-13 cents, Average price per
peurid.
Master Claude Bateman Has the
correct price per pound, and
thohgli his answer is-hot cofcrect
thrdiigfiofit, the preMoin premised
is subject to his order!
The Justices’ dockets,
are kept according to law,^except
that some of them keep the civil
and ci-iminal.dockets together.
The J. P. - and N. P.’s of the
769th, 500tii, :970th, 542d, 926th
and 492 districts have not pre
sented their dockets, according to
law, and we report them jfor neg
lect of thi : s duty.
We find the jail in good condi
tion and properly kept.
The court house is in gbod con
dition, except the guttering on the
east and west sides. G_the wall on
the west side near the ground, and
a few places of broken plastering
need repairifig.
We find seven inmates at the
poor house, all^fit subject^ for the
county’s care, and well attended
to. We suggest that the pauper
houses be put to better condition
for the winter.
We report the county commis
sioners of roads and revenues foi
not keeping Tharp’s bridge, at
Tharp’s mill, Staley’s bridge,
across Big Indian creek, Dinkin’s
bridge, between Echeconnee and
Byron, in safe condition.
We find tliat the Limestone
bridge, and the bridge at Audrew

We ieport the road commission

It is probably a fact that there
is no one article manufactured in
the south that meets with as ready
sale as chairs, and yet the gmaiiu-
factnre of these useful articles is
r* ■* ■
very limited, except to. the north
ern states, where they ate made in
lai’ge quantities. If their manu
facture should be started ih Perify;
there is not the least doiibt of a
profitable result. A small Begin
ning would probably lead to a
prosperous business, and the en
terprise materially benefit onr
town. Young .men could be em
ployed in the Shop, while the seat
ing of the chairs could be taken
into the homes, and matiy dollars
brought into the families to this
way. It will require energy and
money to put the project into suc
cessful operation, but what is there
of any account that does not take
both work and money? Man
ufacturing is a new business to
many of the peoplg qf thg south,
they having been born and raised^
in most instances?, as .. successful
farmers; yet at this tinie of ad
vancement, it is Accessary that
new departures should, be made.
While the farmer is raising the
cotton that will bring money into
this country, let our home manu
facturer make the articles so much
used in the hbtlsS and On the
farm, for which, exorbitant prices
are paid, and tlie money made
from cotton is sent.-back-agato, for
inanufactured goods. Everything
used to the south should be made
in the south. Gotton grown here
shotild be manufactured here. All
kinds qf wooden wase and farming
tools should be made in otir own

We request that the county
commissioners, to disbursing mon
ey for bridges, take into consider
ation the approached to suBb
bridges as have approaches which
cannot be worked by road hands
as parts l.of snch roads, and
that they appropriate money for
that purpose to the extent of 100
feet from end of bridge.'
We learn that our present Sober
itor-General, J. L. Hardeman, will
not enter the race for that office
again, and wejake this method of
expressing onr hearty approval of
his public career, believing, as we
do, that he has made an,able, hon
est and most efficient officer. We
beg the members' of the legisla
ture from this county to support
our worthy citizen, W. C. Winslot?,
for tbe office, and reqrie'st therii to
use all honorable means to elect
him, as we deem him enjtoently
qualified for the same,’ being a
good lawyer and citizen,.and who,
We believe, will discharge His dn-
ti§s.if elected, faithfully and with
out favor or malice to any party!
We regard the aefion of the
County commissioners in enipldy-
ing a clark at a salary of 8300 per
annum, very extravagant, espe
cially so, when we are* reliably to-
forded that competent clerks can
be had at from f.125 to 8150 per
annum, who would perform the
same service as the present clerk.
In taking leave of. His Honor,
G. W. Gustin, and Solicitor Gen-
* v i g
eral Hardeman, we tender them
onr thanks for courtesies shown
ibis body.
We recommend that these pre
sentments be published in The
