The candidate for governor on
the old Hill is still sawing wood
and lying low, but when he does
shy his caster in the political
ring, the fun will begin ; for the
way he can kiss the babies’ and
sing the praises of the horny
handed sons of toil, will make the
other fellows turn green with en
vy. Of course on such important
questions as taxation, he i9 right
up to snuff and would give such
careful and economical adminis
tration that would 1 relieve the fi
nancial condition of the tax' bur
dened peoplo. As for the public
schools—he promises much like
the balance, and will pay the
teachers cash up and no grumb
ling. On pesions—all we widows
wilt get ours first. He is solid on
labor and Capital and believes la
bor should get a slice of the cap
ital. He, is not at all uncertain
on the liquor question, for he was
out, but believes in those strong
democratic principles that allows
every man to have a little when
he wants it. If he can get it.
Farming is moving along at a
good pace, and many are planting
over where the oat crop was kill
ed. Many of our largest farmers
say the cotton acreage will be
greatly reduced this year. And
well may it be, if there is any
truth in the old adage, “that a
burnt child' is afraid of fire.”
Some of our farmers are making
the best preparation for the
wheat crop we ever saw. Two-
horse plows was never m such de-i
maud.
The Coons are getting there
too, for they are secureiug great
stacks of almanacs that tell all
about rains and the good seasons.
Messrs. Webb of Oglethorpe and
Connell of Americas are expected

guests of Mr. C. B. Till and will
bring their fine pock of fox
hounds, and weanticipate some fine
sport. The fox and cats have be
come very numerous on the old

Bro. Houston was for more'
than 50 years an active member
of the Methodist church in Savan
nah, whfere like his Lord, he wan
always going about doing good; it
was his meat and drink to minis
ter to the afficted, to visit the
sick, and seek to elevate fallen
humanity wherever he found it.
What this good man wrought in
his long and useful life, eternity
albne will reveal. He was ten
der, gentle, kind and true. f
“His heart was rich, of such
fine mold, that if you sowed
therein the seeds of hate, it blos
somed into charity. The guiding
star of his life was love.
Why the mind of this faithful
servant should have become cloud
ed the latter years of his life, we
may not inquire.
“God holds the key in his
omnicient hand, shd somentime,
we may undersand.”
“Deep in unfathomable mines
of never failing skill, lie treas
ures lip his bright design, and
works his Soverign will.
On the morning of January
10th, 1902, this faithful old hero
laid down his armor that he had
so long worn, and passed forever
from the dreqm of conflict, to live
and be with, his Lord.
Resolved, That in the death of
Bro. Houston fliis Sunday School
has lost one of her wisest, most
useful and efficient workers.

She was born October 22nd,

county.
This good woman was suddenly
called to meet her God, being sick
only about two days, but was pre
pared for the call, having profess
ed faith in the Lord Jesus and
united with the church in her ear
ly womanhood. She joined Old
Hickory Grove Methodist church
when about 20 years of age and
remained a consistent member un
til its dissolution a year or two
before her death.
She was a loving mother,devbted
sister, faithful wife and loved by
all who knew her, for her woman

such as to attract and win the
admiration and respect of every
one.
She leaves a husband, three
children and a host of relatives
and friends to mourn, but there
is a glorious, glad hope that we
may meet her in that home above
