Col. Dean was informed by The Cracker of the petition being circu
lated requesting him to run for Mayor, and was asked whether or not
She would accept the nomination. He replied t >at, although he had
•not had time to consider the matter and did not know what he would
do, he was always willing to respond to the call of the Democratic
party, and if he did enter the race and was elected, he would serve
the people to the best of his ability. He believes that Democrats
should control the city government, and thinks the movement is
timely and proper, though he would have much preferred seme one
8lse to make the race for Mayor. Col. Dean will decide as soon as
the petition is presented to him whether or not he will run. It can
safely be stated, however, that he will be in the race, for the petition
has already been signed by three-fourths of the leading citizens of
[Gainesville.
The registration books close Monday night, and Democrats are
larged to register today and Monday, that the election of Col. Dean
imay be absolutely sure, and that he may be given a large and com
plimentary vote. Democrats should see that all Democrats register.
■?his election of Col. Dean means that a staunch Democrat* and a
Public spirited, enterprising and high toned gentleman will be Mayor,
pnd he should be given a flattering vote by his fellow Democrats.
The North Side Circle was delight
fully entertained by the Misses Dunlap
Tuesday evening. Much pleasure was
added by'the presence of Mr. J. A.
Brogan of Boston, who brightened and
enlivened the already jovial crowd by
his remarkable variations to plain old
whistling. His skill in this direction is
entitled to the prefix, professional. His
singing too was a happy feature of the
evening. The circle will gather with
Miss Green next. time around her
hearth, where genuine Southern cheer
reigns undisputed.
Lamar’s Lemon Laxative
A Genuine Madstone.
Mr. James Crocker of Banks county,
brought to Gainesville Wednesday, a
genuine madstone, which he gave to
Dr. Dan Fowler. The stone has been
exhibited to many, and every one pro
nounces it to be genuine. It is about
the size of an ordinary thumb, and is
said to be one of the best stones ever
exhibited. .
Dr. Fowler prizes it very highly and

Among the many compliments to
Miss Cutter, Miss Gaston’s much ad
