The prime minister of Germa-
ny will hereafter exercise, through
his under officials, the position of
press censor, and editors who ex
cite the displeasure of the govern
ment will be severely punished.
A proclamation to this- effect was
issued last week.
Several years ago the Home
Journal declared in favor of pow
er being granted to the several
counties in Georgia to enact such
laws as concern them peculiarly
and exclusively. Of course this
must be done within the restric
tions of the state constitution, and
in accord with a general law affect
ing all counties alike. The power
to be conferred should be of the
local option kind—the local law
desired to be enected by a vote of
the people, and not by decision of
any officials of the county.
There are are several reasons
why this power should be confer
red upon the several counties of
the state by the General Assem
bly.
The history of the last several
sessions of the legislature is that
local legislation has consumed a
greater portion of the time, and
caused as much, if not more, ex
pense than the general legislation
concerning the entire state. As
the several counties develop
population and business resources,
this demand for the passage of lo
cal laws will increase, ancLthe day
must surely come when the time
and expenses of each session of the
legislature will be so increased as
to become a tremendous burden
upon the people. Then, as the
counties now are, those containing
large cities desire and ask for
more local laws than do the less
populous counties. The expense
of enacting these local laws is as
great in proportion to the time
consumed as that of general state
laws. This expense is borne in pro
rata share by every county and all
the citizens of the state, though
outside the county specially speci
fied, no benefit at all follows. The
county asking for local legislation
should bear the entire expense of
securing such legislation. A law
giving- the several counties power
to enact their own special laws will
place the expense thereof just
where it belongs. A local law
should not be placed upon the
citizens of a county without the
full and free expression of their
opinion of that law. As matters
now are, a local law can be enacted
through the connivance of a very
fewof its*itizens, when a large
majority of the people may be op
posed to it. This could not be
done under a local option law.
The next legislature should pass,
by an amendment to the constitu
tion, a general law on this subject,
affecting all counties alike. This
should authorize a method of
choice that would give all citizens
a voice. Under the general rules
laid down in the law, a petition to
the Ordinary of the county would
declare that a certain law, affect
ing only that county, is desired by
the citizens thereof. This petition
should be made public by publica
tion, and if no petition of greater
numerical power is presented, an
election would be ordered. The
form of the ballots should be spec-
fied, and through such election a
specified majority will be necessa
ry to enact the. law, otherwise it
will be defeated.
Of course there are some local
measures that could not be regu
lated in this way, because of the
constitution, but all minor affairs
could be easily so settled, to
great advantage of the people di
rectly interested, and the state at
large.
The sessions/Gf the legislature
would be much shortened, the gen
eral expense greatly reduced, and
the specific expense of local legis-
lati&n placed upon the people di
rectly interested.
Such a law should certainly be
passed, and it certainly will be if
the people demand it of the legis
lators 4o be elected next Octo
ber.

SUMMED UP BY BILL HOUSTON.
I have read the presentments of
our last grand jury, and while I
think it, the jury, by far the ablest
Houston has had for many years,
in one item of its presentments' at
least, I think it might have been
more explicit. I refer to the Coun
ty Court, and its value to the coun
ty. It has been the custom of our
grand juries for many years, who
noticed the county court at all, to
say that it was a great benefit to
the county. There are some, and
among them the writer, who have
never been able to see the benefits
and savings claimed for it. It
seems to me that money spent jn
showing how it is beneficial would
be well spent. The county court
has been in operation for many
years, and while it is claimed that
We were blessed with a good
rain last Thursday night, and oats
are looking much better.
Cotton chopping will soon be
the order of the day in this sec
tion.
Con. Barker tries mighty hard
to get ahead of everybody in the
neighborhood, but somebody catch
es him out every time.
If the boys don’t watch Ben he
will get the advantage of them on
the sly.
Neighbors should be very care
ful how they feed company’s
stock when they come to see them.
Mr. W. spent the day with Mr. J.
M. Pitts a few days ago. You
know how mules are that are fed
on shucks. When they get the
crime has decreaed, it is a fact that, c ^ ance Q t corn, how they^ do eat!
with all the help that the county
court gives and all that it saves,
the Superior court still holds
two weeks session twice yearly, all
the same. I am almost forced to
exclaim that a multiplicity of courts
increase litigation. If this is not
so why do We have, with more
courts and less material, the same
amount of business? With my
present Understanding of the county
court, I can’t help but believe it to
be a burden, both direct and indi
rect, upon the people.
Hr. Henry George and Miss
Fannie Daniels were married on
Sunday evening at the residence
of Mrs. D. W. Holland, Bev. Mr.
Brewton officiating. The groom-
is a well known contractor of Cor
dele, and the bride a popular young
lady of Dennard. That they may
live long and be happy is the wish
of all who know them.
There is a right smart collection
of Housers at Dennard to-day—on
their annual picnic.
Dr. B. L. Easom is among us
again—he must be hunting some
body to wash his bottles. He
leaves this morning for Cordele on
a business trip.
I send a problem for Maj. Brun
son: Two of our heavy weights
made a trade. A says to B, I’ll
give you a gallon of Macon spring
water, and B makes the same prop
osition to A, and the trade is made-
A gets his water and sends to B
who finds it so bad that he couldn’
use it, and sends it back to A. Each
has bought the other, but who is
benefitted?
Pitts gave them a nice bait of corn
that day, and when they started
home they felt so much stronger
they wanted to run away. W. told
Mr. B. that Pitts didn’t feed his
mules, and they wanted to go home
to get something to eat. But B.
knew what was the matter, and
Pitts will know how to feed W.’s
mules next time, as he does not
wish to hurt them by giving them
something they are unaccustomed
to.
Judge King made a flying visit
to the Central City last Saturday
morning, and on his return “lit” at
Feagin’s mill, within a few Bun
dled yards of his own home.
Mr. J. M. Pitts has the best
stand of watermelons in this sec
tion. He has only about 125 hills
missing out of his whole farm.
This is the fruit of saving your
own seed. We know when we
plant the seed we save that they
have not been boiled.
Politics is all the talk in our com
munity. We hope our good al-
liancemen don’t mean to suggest
men for senator and representa
tives, as we have understood. We
hope they will consider this matter
very closely, for it is the most im
portant one in the campaign. We
want good men, and as among the
several candidates, who are the best
men, is a question for the people to
decide. We hope the candidates
will come out and declare the truth
as to where they stand. Don’t
come out with a thousand fail-
promises to the farmer, and then
down him in the legislative halls.
April 22d, 1890.
[It is entirely correct for “The
Judge”' to give expression to his
opinion concerning the usefulness
of our county court. On the face
of it, considering only the volume
of civil and criminal business be
fore the courts, and the length and
number of sessions of the superi<
court, it would appear that “The
J udge” is correct. How^ffer, it is
a fact that the criminal^ases tried
by the county court 4rould cost the
county in jail fee^ solicitor’s fees
and: other costs much more than
as the judge’s salary, if tried in
the superior court. Then, a person
charged - with a misdemeanor
about ^ the first of May:
woxffd be placed in jail, if bond
should not be given, and for each
day until October the jail fee of 40
cents must be paid by the county.
Those who have investigated closely
say the county court is a great sav
ing in court expenses to the county.
In the county court last year 268
cases were tried. It is estimated
that the trial of these cases in the
superior court, including dieting
in jail, for a portion of them, would
have cost the county $5,368. De
duct from this amount the judge’s
salary, and amount paid bailiff,
$1,282, and the saving to the county
is shown to be $4,131.

The writer of the following must
be a full-grown “Sucker.” He
wrote from Houston Factory on the
loth inst., to the Macon Evening
News. He wrote a scaly story, .and
signed himself Ed Scales:
“On yesterday the champion
fishermen from your' city arrived
here*and pitched their' tents, pre
paratory for a week’s sport in fish
ing and hunting.
Not more than an hour had
elapsed after arrival before Mr. L.
Bedingfield, having gotten his lines
rigged up and baiting his hook
with a live minnov, threw in and
in a few moments hung a trout
which by main forc§ he succeeded
in landing after a desperate strug
gle. The trout weighed twenty-
four pounds and six ounces.
Daring this time Mr. E. J. Free
man was taking in the bream to
the tune of one every minute.
Col. O. G. Sparks, the veteran,
securing the services of an old dar
key, went on the lake for the pur
pose of taking trout with the bob.
It was less than ten minutes after
starting when the colonel saw ' the
water break about twenty feet from
the boat, and instantly something
seized his bob. He pulled on it
and the fish made a break up
stream and ran for a mile and a
half, until, being exhausted, the
colonel, with the assistance of the
darkey, succeeded in getting it in
the boat. It proved to be a thir
ty-pound trout, and the old negro
says that he hung the same fish
twelve years ago, for he knew him
by a scar that he made at the time
he broke loose.”

Considering the efforts that

their newspaper friends; the gu

able that the dark horses being
groomed will outnumber the can

office.
Southwest Georgia editors
still insist that the next governor
of Georgia should be a citizen of
their section of the state. Such a
result can be reached surely only
by sectional consolidation of vo
ters, and we deem this both ini-
•practicable and improper. Our
governor should be the represent
ative ol the entire state, and-not of
any section thereof. This is not
intended to discredit the candida
cy of anyj citizen, or. citizens, of
Southwest Georgia.
—In the county court last Fri
day a negro boy, Dan Boberts,
swore in a trial directly opposite
to his testimony before the grand
jury'. For this Judge Biley com
mitted him to jail for perjury, to
await investigation by the next
grand jury. He was afterward
released on bond, the sum fixed
being $200. This action of Judge
Biley was eminently correct, and
may serve as a warning to others
whose regard for truth is no high
er than this boy’s.

REPORTED BY X.
Last Tipiaday night, 15th inst,
about one o’clock, one or Byron’s
oldest and best known citizens
quietly passed away. Three years
ago Mr. W. H. Peavy was stricken
with that most fatal of ail diseases,
pneumonia, from which he never
entirely recovered. It left him
with a severe case of bronchitis,
which terminated in his death,
Mr. Peavy was well known through
out this county as a man of ster
ling worth, whose business capaci
ty was excelled by none, of unusual
integrity, whose character could
not be questioned, and whose only
motto was “to do unto others as he
would have them do unto him.”
He was about sixty-three years of
age, and had been a faithful mem
ber of the Missionary Baptist
church for a number of years. The
interment took place Thursday af
ternoon at the cemetery, the funer
al services being conducted by
Bev. J. M. Foster. He leaves
wife, three sons and one daughter
to mourn the loss of their beloved
one.
Mr. J. B. Walton honored the
young people of Byron'with a so
cial enteftainment last .Friday
night. Quite a number were pres
ent^ and all seemed to reap the full
benefits of the pleasurable occa
sion.
The first picnic of the season
took place at Walton’s mill last
Saturday. All present expressed
themselves as having had a nice
time and plenty of fish te eat.
The labor question is being dis
cussed with much interest around
here now, as a great many' of the
gegroes have deserted the farms'
for the railroads. The farmers
fearsome difficulty in getting their
crops cultivated.
I find that those who planted
their cotton early have a better
stand than those who waited until
spring had fairly opened up.

con’s most charming and attractive

It is natural for people, when
they want to trade, to go to head
quarters. The large dry goods es
tablishment of Bvrden, Smith &
Ellis, of Macon, Ga., is recognized
as headquarters in, their line of
business. They claim that their
stock is unexcelled in Georgia for
variety, completeness, style and
quality of goods. This claim
not an empty boast, made for the
purpose of attracting attention, but
it is a fact which will be certified
to by all who have traded with
them. They’ have a wily of buying-
the best goods, and placing them
on the market at the lowest possi
ble prices, and these facts are ap
preciated by. their customers. A
discriminating public know the
difference between low-priced good
goods., And cheap shoddy goods;
and they know that Burden, Smith
& Ellis are as famous for the qual
ity and style of goods they sell, as
for the. bottom prices at which
the goods are sold. “The best
goods for the least money,” is a
motto on which Burden, Smith &
Ellis have made their reputation,
and it is a foundation as solid as a
rock. They have a reputation at
stake, and they intend to maintain
it. The only way to do this, is to
sell only goods which they can con
scientiously recommend, and to
sell them at prices which their
well-informed customers know are
as low as the lowest.
The stock kept by Burden,
Smith & Ellis embraces everything
kept in a first-class dry goods
store—dress goods from calico and
gingham up to the most magnifi
cent silk. Any taste and any purse
can be Suited. In white goods of
all kinds their stock cannot be sur
passed. It would delight any
good housekeeper to inspect this
stock. There are bargains in it,
which even this firm has not been
able to offer heretofore.
Persons at a distance are cordi
ally invited to send for samples
and prices. On orders amounting
to $10 or oyer, they will pay ex-,
pressage. Those who call in per
son wjll find a large corps of polite,
efficient and accommodating clerks
ready to serve-them.
When you visit Macon don’t for
get to call on Burden, Smith &
Ellis.
