JUST TWO Something About the Greatest Weekly Newspaper in the Country.* , j-iie constitution will send a sample copy of its great Weekly to any one sending his own name and the names of six neighbors, on a postal card. Every man should take his county newspaper before anything else, and next to this he should take a good gen eral newspaper, such as \he Constitu tion. His county paper gives him the local home news, which is not supplied by a newspaper furnishing the general news from all parts of the country and from all over the world. Before a man seeks information from outside, he should first feel sure that he is being kept posted oh what is going on at home. That is why he should take his county paper first. When, however, the opportunity* is offered to get the best weekly newspaper in this country with your home paper, the inducement is such as to elicit prompt response from our readers. We will be glad .to receive clubbing subscriptions with this paper and the* Constitution, and if there are any, who are now subscribers to this paper, who wish to take thfe Constitution also, we will be glad to receive subscriptions to ' the latter and forward them, having " ^thority from that paper to do so.

Will Organize a Brotherhood Composed iljZt of Miners Throughout the Southern iji States. •, To Meet in Gaines- ville at an Early Bate. The gold miners of the south will organize a miners’ union in Gainesville at an early date. Several of the lead ing miners of northeast Georgia are interested in the matter, and will send out letters to the miners of the southern states requesting their’attendance at a meeting to be held here at an early date. , In the letter the following statement is made showing the object of the organization. “"“Having fully recognized the fact that the mining industries of this whole country, the country at large would be greatly benefitted by the establishment of closer relationship be tween onrselves, with the intention of advancing the common good of all alike, we, the undersigned, have decided and do hereby propose to organize a brotherhood, of miners for the above purpose. A date for the meetingprill be set in a few days, and as the move has the indorsement of the leading, miners of this section, no doubt the. move will be a success, and the miners will derive much benefit from the organization. Primarily, those who -are interested in the matter want to keep out speculators and boomers, aud to secure the proper development of the mines of Georgia. They believe speculators and boomers do much to retard progress in the mining industry of this section, and they want deals in properties to be put upon a legitimate basis, so that no one who wants to invest will be misled or deceived, but can rest assured that all necessary facts will he put before them. 7 , Much complaint has been made in the southern mining belt for sevsral years past of the imposition of alleged millionaire speculators upon^ .property holders who'have started booms which have almost invariably resulted in bursted baubles. Also, it is alleged that holders of properties ha ye imposed upon miners by misleading and mis informing them. There is a desire to break up all of this, and to get the industry upon strictly a legitimate plane. It is believed that the organiza tion will accomplish what it is intended fo«. It was decided yesterday to hold the meeting January 28th at the Arlington Hotel. There will be but two months of the winter te*m of the county scfibols, Be fore the legislature had cut i£he school appropriation the board of ^education of Hall county had fixed thife date for the winter schools to begii| January ( 1st. Accordingly they wer^opened at that time, but instead of continuing for the period formerly fixed they will close about March 1st.’ Thill is done to allow the state treasurer f$> catch up with the expenditures and to pay teachers monthly during the. next term, as provided for by the legislature. County School Commissioner Robert son has not yet received the checks for the last quarter of last year, but ex pects them in a day or two. The county teachers will receive their pay for January on the first of next month. Although the school term has been shortened the payment of teachers monthly will be more satisfactory- and will save them much in the discounts they have formerly paid. The Sure La Gnppe Cure.

The clubbing price of the two papers being only $1.50 per year, subscriptions to be, sent through this office and the terms to be cash. * It is a fact perhaps not generally known tliat the Weekly Constitution has the largest circulation of any newspaper on the western hemisphere. Only a few months ago a large news paper directory questioned the claim of circulation -’made by the Constitution and put up a forfeit of $100 that it could be disproved that it had more than. 100,000 circulation. The Consti tution promptly accepted the offer and submitted its books to the repre sentative of the firm. . Mr. George P. Rowell, publisher of the newspaper directory, acknowledged his error publicly and paid the forfeit. The Constitution, while being a democratic newspaper, is first aid above all things a newspap; It is a twelverpage seven-column weekly mak ing * eighty-four columns each week. Its subscription price is $1 a year, but if taken- under the a*rangement with this paper we can give them botn at. im mm
