The News-Herald. Entered at Lawreneerille ;po»tofflce as second-class matter. PI BLISfiSD EVERY FRIDAY Official Organ Gwinnett County, Lawrenceville Publishing Co., Proprietors. "W. G. McNslley, Editor. The Hynds Manufacturing Com- | pany ig preparing to move their extensive plant to Atlanta. A. J. Monday, the Sheri!!’ of Hall county, is building a fine grist mill at Oakwood, in Hall county. “Down with the trusts!” is the democratic slogan for 1900. On that issue a democratic president can be elected. Bryan is doing too much talk ing. He will talk himself to death before the democratic national convention meets if he don’t mind. Representative Simpson, of Mil- 1 ton county, w’ho has been suffering with smallpox at Marietta, has re-' covered, There are several cases of the disease at Marietta. Smallpox prevails at Pender grass, in Jackson county, but the disease is of light form, and no apprehension is felt with proper precautions to prevent its spread. Flem dußignon is setting his sails toward the United States Senate, but he will encounter many a rebuff before he gets there. He may succeed Steve Clay, but Bacon—not much ! While it is most a year yet till the political pot begins to simmer it may not be amiss thus early to Bay that the sentiment of Gwin nett county democrats is over whelmingly in favor of a white primary. And that’s what we are going to have, too. Toccoa Record: Mr. Fricks, of near Avalon, a gentleman 100 years old the 9th of last month, last week walked over to Walhalla and returned after a day or two visiting; then went to the river and caught a large string of fish, one of which weighed five pounds, all in one week. This does pretty well for a centenarian, we think. Next year is Gwinnett’s turn, according to the rotation system, to furnish the Senatorial timber for the 34th Senatorial district. Ex-Representative M’Donald, Rep resentative Hutchins, Ex-Repre sentative “Smith of Gwinnett,” and Ex-Representative Clement have all been spoken of as possible candidates. The race promises to be lively, unless the friends of Judge Hutchins induce him to allow his name used, in which event the Judge would be the choice of the people, probably without opposition. While the race for Solicitor- General is yet a long ways off, it goes without saying that Hon. C. H. Brand will be re-elected by the people when he goes before them for an endorsement of his official record by a rousing major ity. In fact, it is doubtful if he will have any opposition at all. His duties have been performed with such signal ability, charac teristic of the man’s unflagging energy, that the people will take great pleasure in adding their en dorsement to the legislature’s wise choice in electing him to the Solicitorship of this circuit. All this praise of ex-Governor Northen for debating the negro question with a negro bishop up in Boston the other night makes us sick. Iu our humble opinion the ex-Governor’s discussion is calculated to do the south infinite ly more harm than good. And his condescention to debate with a negro is setting a precedent entire ly at variance with past teachings of all true southern men. The more the negro question is dis cussed, the harder it will be to settle. The best way, in our opin ion, to settle the “question” is to lynch every rapist, whose identity is undisputed, and say as little about it as possible. The question of a new union passenger depot for Atlanta is one in which the entire state is interested, and if the great rail road interests of Georgia would pay heed to the wishes of jhe peo ple they would not longer quibble over the details, but would pro ceed at once with the erection of a passenger station in keeping with the needs of the hoqr. The pres ent structure is an eye-sore not only to Atlanta but to every vis itor to that city. Let the rail roads get together and do their duty, and they will not only be doing the proper thing by Atlanta, but at the same time winning the applaudits of the people from every section of the state, who feel a just pride in their wide-awake and growing capital city. And the applaudits and good will of the people of Georgia will be worth more to the railroads than the cost of a new station. “A stitch in time saves nine” i» an old | maxim the raiiroad people would j do well to heed just at this time.] General Clearance Sale AT MBS WEBB’S Wholesale and Retail Cash Store. 15 pieces M.

Colquitt, a negro boy liv ing in Oconee county, attempted to commit an assault upon a white girl near High Shoals Saturday uight, May 20th. He was cap tured Sunday and carried to jail at Watkinsville. Judge Russell was asked to convene a special term of court to try the negro for his dastardly crime, else there would be a lynching. Judge Rus sell promptly responded, the court met Thursday and the grand jury returned a bill of iudictment. When the negro was brought to the bat of justice ho entered a plea of guilty. Judge Russell gave him the extreme limit of the law—2o years at hard labor in the penitentiary, and on Friday the culprit was hurried off to begin serving his sentence. Thus, within a week after the crime was committed justice was meted out to this wretch, and the fair name of Oconee county spared the shame of a lynching. Judge Russell and Solicitor Brand are to be commended in their prompt and efficient wotk in this matter, and if their ex ample could be emulated by other Judges and Solicitors in other parts of the state, there wouid be fewer lynchiugs in Georgia. VOUNU IIAKIUK COMMENCEMENT. The commencement of Young Harris college, which was closed on the 25th of May was the best, all iu all, Bince the college was organized. The preaching Sunday by Bishop W, W. Duncan, Dr. R. J. Bigham and Dr. John 1). Ham mond was strong, clear and elo quent, The enrollment reached beyond 300. The graduating class uumbered nineteen. G. W. Bar nett, of Hall county, won the first honor. Rev W. F. Robinson, who has been president of the college for five years, declined re-election, and was elected agent for the col lege. Professor J. W. Boyd was elected president of the faculty and will be in charge until a pres ident is elected. Professor Boyd is an experienced teacher and has been with the college since its or- J gauization. Professor Boyd will j have the following teachers to as sist him: Professor W. S. Mann, Danielsville, Ga.; Professor W. S. 1 Robinson, of North Georgia cou- 1 fereuce; Misses Bettie Boyd, of Norcross, Ga.; Willie Jones,of La grange; Maud Bailey, of Walesca, i Ga.; Mabel Lovelace, of Senoia, Ga.; May D. Burtcliell, of Nor cross, Ga. In Oconee county, eight miles from Athens, is situated a little Baptist church that was on June Ist, 100 years old. The day was appropriately celebrated. Rev. F. M. Haygood, of Atlanta, who joined the church in 1835, attend jed the exercises. The church has been served through the years by good men and has prospered. ! Fifteen years ago a new building | was erected, but it stands upon the same spot whore the church was organized 100 years ago. Mrs. Letitia Johnson, aged eighty-two, is the oldest living member of the church and resides iu Athens. Rev. L. T Reed is the present pastor. SAYS THE NEGRO HAS NO SO 111.. Chambersaurg, Pa., May 27 A startling theory, and one which has stirred the negro population of the north to excitement, is ad vanced by Rev Dr. Gottlieb Hass kail, of the Lutheran chinch, claiming scientific and biblical authority. Dr. Ilasskarl asserts the negro to be the long-sought Darwinian missing link. After affirming that the negroes’s main superiority over the gorilla, orang otang and baboon is that he utters sounds that could be imitated and understood by Adam and conver sation ensued between them ; that the baboon is thickly clothed with huir and goes erect part of time; that the orangoutang has still less hair, is of a black skin and goes erect when moving about. Dr. Hasskarl says: “It is thus 6een that the gradu ation from the monkey to the ne gro is in philosophical juxtanposi tion in God’s order of creation. In the capaity of a beast, the ne gro entered Noah’s ark, and not being counted with the eight souls that entered the ark who were Noah and his wife, his three sons and their wives, is without a soul. Therefore,it is idle and wrong to sacrifice either life or money to convert the negro either in Africa or America into Christianity.” Dr. Hasskarl, more than this, says for the negro there is no par adise for him; there was no help mate created foi him; there was no tree of knowledge, no test of obedience, consequently he is not. a moral being, nor morally respon sible, and this in spite of the un fortunate thirteenth amendment. Through his seed there is no med iator; consequently no redemp tion. The gospel is meant for a gospel people, a people who have capac ity and ability to receive it and live to it. In brief, only the de cendants of Adam and Eve in God’s image and likeness are meant to be beneficiaries of the gospel. Dr. Hasskarl is the author of several ethnological works: is a doctor of philosophy and of canon laws. He is a graduate of Mt. Airy Theological seminary and a large contributor to the Lutheran church’s literature. A PKEAOHEK'S AD VICK. Lorenzo Dow once closed a dis course with the following language which is singular for its quaint ness and practical in its advice: “I want you my young sinners, to kiss and get married. Then let your home be provided with such comforts and necessaries as piety, pickles, kettles, brushes, brooms and benevolence, bread, virtue, wine and wisdom. Have these al ways at hand, and happiness will be with yov. Do not drink any thing intoxicating, eat moderate ly, go about your business, lounge a little after dinnir, chat after tea, and kiss after quarreling Then all the joy, the peace and bliss the earth cau afford shall be yours un til the grave closes over you, and your spirits are borne to a brighter and happier world.”—Ex.

Gresham went off on a thieving expedition a few Sundays ago, but his conscience smote him and he returned home. It was a girl he was trying to steal. The Haynes Creek Literary So ciety suspended Saturday night with a very nice program, and a large crowd present. This section has advanced the most of any section we know of, due in a large part to the efforts of Mr. Pate. All the extra or loose hands have been called into use last and this week. SUWANEE Special to THE NEWS. Rev. H. A. Hodges occupied his pulpit at the Methodist church Sunday, to the delight of his en tire congregation. Some unknown party borrowed Dr. Harris’ case of surgical instru ments last Wednesday night, val ued at .$58.00. The case was re turned, after being relieved of every instrument it contained. No clue whatever to the party committing such a bold and dar ing deed. Last Friday evening Bailiff Sudderth sent a grapevine mes sage to Sheriff Haslatt that he had in charge a bird of color awaiting his cage. When the Sheriff ar rived Baililf Suddefth politely no tified him that the bird, which was charged with dispensing tea to his Pock, had broken out of the Mayor’s cage, and had flown to parts unknown.

HAVING disposed of most of our summer.goods before summer was half gone, we decided to add a little more of the same class of goods to our stock. To our sur prise we found the wholesale houses stocked with sum mer goods—their spring trade not being as good as usual— and we laid in a big stock, knowing that at the prices we could sell them they wduld not remain on the shelves long. Wc feel justified in saying that we can sell these goods for less than our competitors paid for them. “Why ?” you ask. Simply because the traveling men have a limited time in which to sell their spring goods. They are now out selling their fall goods, and the houses they reptesent must get rid of what’s left of their summer goods without the aid of their salesmen. This explains it. We bought light in the spring. Now we have bought some of the same goods at a greatly reduced price. Look at These Prices.

Special to THE NEWS. Duluth was visited yesterday by a nice rain, which pleased the far mers very much. A crowd of our young people visited Stone Mountain one day last week to picnic and see the sun rise, and report a nice time. Miss Nell Strother is expected home the first o£ June.

The rain Monday night was a great blessing to the farmers. Wheat is looking fine through this section. Midway and Snellville were well represented at Wild Cat Sunday afternoon. Johnny Hoofner has a fine crop of the fleecy staple. We agree with the Snellville correspondent for wanting the correspondents’ picnic at Law renceville, because The News-Her ald can be at home on that day and welcome its many workers. We were mistaken last week by saying that Miss Lena Richardson attended preaching at New Hope with J. W. Hoofner. It was her brother, Robert, instead. Miss Ada Camp is -very sick at this writing. S. F. Bennett. BUFORD. Special to THE NEWS. We trust this our first letter will not fall so far short of the high standard set by your esteemed Journal, that it will be consigned to the waste-basket. If, in the course of our correspondence, it develops that any commendation would be in'order, with the char acteristic modesty of an amatuer newspaper reporter, we put in a bid for our share. On the other hand if any one becomes offended, either by an act of omission or commission, it is necessarily the fault of “Ye Editor,” and the of fended party is respectfully re ferred to headquarters for satisfac tion. Hon. Mel Charles, of Flowery Branch, was with us a short while Tuesday. It was a pleasant surprise to see Col. J. A. Perry, of Lawrenceville, in our city last week. Col Perry has been very successful in masing friends during bis short stay with us, and we hope to have him again at an earlv date. Misses Carrie and Kate Shad burn, who have been visitiug rela tives in Buford, have returned to their home. Their \tay was the occasion of much pleasure to their friends. Mr. Clarence Allen has returned from an extended visit to the Eastern cities. The negro, Warren Hunter, who is supposed to have shot Wi 11 Mc- Whorther, another negro, here last week, has not be-n apprehended. McM’horther died a short time af ter the shooting. As an evidence that Buford is not suffering from the smallpox sensation, we point to the new fac tory for wood working etc., that Messrs. Jack and Leonard Patillo have just completed. Mrs. Knight, of Monroe, is visit ing her-daughter, Mrs. Bona Al len, Jr. Miss. Nevada Cleveland is visit ing relatives in Toccoa LOGANSVILLE. Special to TlfE NEWS. Aud still this little town con tinues to prow and improve. The latest news along this line is that there will soon be built a large brick warehouse, and two or more new brick stores erected. The stock for the warehouse has all been subscribed, and work will be begun on the building within a few week’s time. Messrs. N. 0 Bennett and D. Y. Hodges are the prime movers in this, enterprise, though every cotton man in the town is interested in the company. Then J. H. McGee, of Lawrence ville, will enter business here in September, He will occupy the store house that is now used by J P. Rockmore. Mr. Rockmore will build a new and larger store on the opposite side of the street, either of brick or rock,. He will let the contract for this building within a few days, so that work may be commenced at an early dav. Other enterprises will be opened up during the next four months that will startle the na tives. It is predicted that the population of the town will in crease more than 50 per cent, dur ing the coming five months. Cer tain it is that many new houses will be built, many new' business enterprises started, and many per sons move here. Messrs. W. H. Braswell, J. P. Rockmore and J. L.
