'/V Tried to Break Jail.. !
Another effort was made last Satur
day night to break jail by several of
the prisoners. The ever alert Sheriff
Mundy prevented the intentions of the
prisoners from being carried out. He
heard the noise th^y were making and
promptly investigated the trouble.
The ring* leaders were chained and
kept securely logether. Dave Shoe-
make, Rol Peeler and Rill Addison
were the chief promoters of the scheme
to escape. They are hardened crimi
nals and great care has to be taken
with«them. They have been sent to
Atlanta for safe keeping until the.
penitentiary officers < come to carry
them to serve thei* terms. Sheriff
Miindy is keeping a close eye on the
prisoners, and they will not be allowed
to escape.

ADMITTING VISITORS TO JAIL. ,
• ' -V
During the last few months pris
oners Jiave repeatedly damaged the
jail which cost considerable money
to have repaired. To prevent fur
ther injury to the jail and the es
cape ^f prisoners, we recommend
that the sheriff or his deputy ad
mit no one to said jail without
first being carefully searched, and
should these depradation9 con
tinue we suggest that a strict pro
hibition as to visitors be thrown
around said jail. *
PUBLICATION.
* .
We recommend that, these pre
sentments be published in the
Gainesville Eagle and The Georgia
Cracker at regular rates.
We return our thanks to Judge
J. B. Estes, Solicitor-General W.
A. Charters, Clerk T. M. Bell, and
Sheriff A. J. Mundy and our effi
cient bailiff, Major Hawkins, for
continued courtesies shown us.

There is practical evidence that
the Georgia farmer has begun to
live at home. Id a recent letter
a prominent railroad man of
Georgia stated that the south
bound tonnage on his road had
'decreased at least fifty per cent.
This he attributed to the low
price of cotton and a decline in
the purchasing power of. the mer
chants. “He did not specify the
character of western shipments,”
says the Southern Farmer, “but
we are inclined to believe that
their decline in quantity is not an
evidence of Repression, as the rail
road official suggests, but is proof
that the farmers of that territory
are ceasing to depend, upon the
west .for supplies, which they can
produce themselves. This mani
festation may cau«e temporary
dullness in some lines, but it will
pass. Independence of the west
in the matter of supplies for
household and stock'is but a step
toward the ability of the Southern
farmers to become a seller to the
west and north.”
It would be poetic justice to
see the western farmer buying
from the-Georgia farmer, who has
had his smoke house in the west
