' The News-Herald. Entered at Lawrenceville Jpostoffice as second-class matter. PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY^ Official Organ Gwinnett County. Lafwnceyille Publishing Co., Proprietors. W. Q-. McHelley, Editor. GENERAL JOSEPH WHEELER. General Joseph Wheeler was born in Augusta, Ga., September 10, 1886. He was educated in the north. His parents died when he was a child.s years of age, and he was sent to the care of relatives at Cheshire, Conn., where he spent his boyhood. Here he received his education, until his appoint ment as Btudent to West Point by a congressman of his own name, John Wheeler, formerly of Darby, Conn., who, however, represented a New York district. He gradu ated at West Point in 1859; in 1860 was commissioned 2nd Lieu tenant of Dragoons. But at the breaking out of the war he was in the south, and when his native state seceeded he quickly decided which side he would take, his southern blood asserting its pri macy in this decisiou. Just 10 days after the first guu at Ft. Sumter he resigned his lieutenacy in the Federal army April 22nd, 1861, and was appointed Colonel of the 19th Alabama Infantry September 4. From that day he bore a promi nent part in the war. At Shiloh he commanded a brigade of infan try, but was afterward put in command of a cavalry regiment. On Oct. 80, 1862, he was pro moted Brigadier General. After wards he was Major General, then Lieutenant General, until the death of Gen. Stuart, when he be came senior cavalry general of the Confederate army.. He bore a promineut part in the great battles of Shiloh, Far mington, Corinth, Perryville, Mur fresboro, Chicamaugua,Missionary Ridge and Knoxville. Besides this, he was under Are in more than 500 skirmishes, and commanded in 127 battles, many of which, considering the num bers, were the most severe and successful recorded in the history of cavalry warfare. He had five horses killed under him, and a great number wounded. In some engagements he lost half his of ficers, yet he was never seriously hurt but once, though his coat and hat had been often riddled by northern bullets. After the war he studied law, which he has since practiced, and is also a cotton planter of Ala bama. He is now serving his ninth term as congressman from the eighth district of Alabama, which shows the esteem be has in the hearts of his countrymen in times of peace as well as war. When President McKinley broke the record of all his predecesors since the war and gave him a com mand in the Spauish-American war, with the rank of Major Gen eral, those who had studied histo ry in a one-sided way looked upon it more as a concession to the south than as a merited honor. But as the facts of the Santiago campaign gradually come to light, the entire country endorsed the appointment of the President as being a wise one, in that he put in charge the ablest cavalry tacti cian this country has ever pro duced. So pronounced is his popularity , that the G. A. R. veterans of Bos ton invited him, this year, to de liver the address on Memorial day, the first time an ex-ofticer of the Confederate army has ever per formed this duty for a northern army Post. General Wheeler, or “Fighting Joe,” who is every inch a soldier, is short of stature and slight of frame, and he might be overlooked in a crowd as hardly the one to call a typical hero, but his mobile face, cool judgment, calm thought fulness and quiet dignity, coupled with that piercing, commanding eye, irrepressible energy and quick decisiou, make him a natural born leader in the field of battle. What is better about General Wheeler than his military and political abilities and achieve ments, is the fact that he is a re ligious man. He was brought up in the Episcopal church, with a great reverence for sacred things and faith in the efficacy of prayer. At one time when his host'acci dentally found him on his knees and offered an apology, General Wheeler said, “Don’t mention it, I think all of us ought to kneel before we retire, and thank our good Maker for His mercies ar.d blessings. ” The members of General Wheel er’s staff say that during the San tiago campaign he never lay down to sleep without offering a prayer, and never arose in the morning without thanking God for His protection and preservation. He has none of th a vices of in temperance, or other bad habits which have ruined so many sol diers and politicions. In. publishing the map of the disputed territory between Walton and Gwinnett last week, there was an error in the diagram, though the accompanying description made the matter plain enough to any one of ordinary intelligence. Not so, however, to the youthful sage of the Walton News and Mes senger. His mental calibre was in adequate to the task, though had he stood upon his head and looked at the diagram from that position he might have comprehend it more clearly, since he relys upon his op tics instead of his brain to grasp a situation. When Col. Collier be gins hiß resurvey of this disputed line, the difference between the Shaderick Morris and the James Morris places will be made paiu fully but plainly apparent to our Walton county friends. Until then “requiescat en pace,” Bro. Upshaw. Seaboard Air Lint at Work. Columbus, S. C., June 27.—Vice President and General Manager St. John, of the Seaboard Air-Line arrived iD Columbia today with Chief Engineer Lugoff and a corps of engineers, who got into camp near here. The general manager made the announcement that the Seaboard would at ouce proceed to construct a line from Columbia to Augusta. The. sufvey of this line had al ready been completed and the pro files are in the office of the com pany ready for the contract for the work to be let. The line will be fourteen miles shorter than any existing line between the two pla ces. The survey from Augusta to Charleston, now being quietly made, Mr. St. John admits, is for his road. * The work has been in progress for two months. The road will be built by Janu ary Ist, said Mr. St. John, and will be runuiug through trains from New York to Tampa. With the Charlestou-Augusta liuk the Seaboard will build 265 miles of road in South Carolina and 150 miles will be its work in the next seven months. FOURTH OF JULY EX CURSIONS. Up-country folks and down-country folks need a shake-up at least once a year. The shake-up might as well come Fourth of July as any other day. Moun tain folks need a dash of seaside and seaside folks need that peculiar some thing called “mountain air.” Fourth of July is kind of a jolly affair anyhow. Everybody moves somewhere. The querry.is where to go? The answer is found in a glance at the Seaboard Air Line system. From the waters of the Chesapeake to the crags and deep trout pools of the Blue Ridge. This railroad will put on sale tickets pur chasable of any agent, July 2nd, 3rd and 4th and good to return on or be fore July the 7th, at one aud one third fares for the round trip. Plenty of people will be going, hut ample ac commodation will be provided thqt there will be plenty of room for the children —for the whole family. There will be no struggle nor exhaustion in cident upon crowding for those who take their Fourth of July outing by the Seaboard Air Line. Remember, the Fourth of July comes but once a year. It will neuer do to miss the outing. Married men, according to a German investigator, live longer than bachelors, and are less like ly to hecome insane. Another argument for matrimony is found in the fact that there are 88 crim inals among every 10C0 bachelors, while among the married men the ratio is only 18 per 1000. J. V. Hobbs, M. D., Fort Valley Ga., says: “I have been practicing medi cine twenty-live years and know piles to be one of the most difficult of dis eases to cure, but have known DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve to cure numbers of cases and do not hesitate to reccoin inend it.” Be sure you get “DeWitt’s.” there are injurious counterfeits on sale. K. J. Bagwell, Lawrenceville, and Dr. Hinton, Dacula. A number of farmers iu Sumner county, Kan., have filed with the county commissioner a protest against the continuance of the bounty on wolf scalps. They claim that the wolves are of great benefit to the country as rabbit exterminators, and that they do little, if any, harm. “What might have been”—lf that little cough hadn’t been neglected—is the sad reflection of thousands of con sumptives.

Subscribe for the News-Herald and make all the family happy. It will soon be “laying by time” with our farmers, and we bespeak for them a happy time as they en joy the fruits of their labor ’ under their own vine and fig tree,“ and as they visit among themselves and go to “big meetings.” It is the happiest vocation in the world, and Harry Hopeful says the surest route to heaven. We scarcely look over a single one of our Georgia exchanges with out seeing some mention of cotton factories or other manufacturing enterprises being erected. When will Lawrenceville awake to her interests, shake off her lethargy and get abreast of her neighbors ? Will she wait till all the rest are served ? We hope not. The Constitution of Tuesday last publishes a remarkable aud horri ble accident near Charlotte, N. C. A young man by the name of Parsons was run over by a train, aevering his body in twain. Each piece was laid in the baggage car separately to ship to Charlotte, and to the utter amazement of all present the’ young man lived aud was conscious for over an hour after the accident. That was a pretty heavy blow Lawrenceville got last Sunday afternoon, as well as a terrific rain. The little frame building near our office, occupied by Henry Morris, the colored shoemaker, was blown from its foundations; the editor’s woodshed was blown down, also a number of trees and branches of trees in different partß of town. Several fine com patch es were “laid by,” but aside from this we have heard of no other damage. It is a shame to our town and county to think that we have acres upon acres of rich and productive garden lands, and yet snap beans from a distance are bringing four cents per pound right here in Law renceville. Now, there is not a family in Georgia but who can raise enough vegetables on otie acre to supply all their needs, and a large number of families can supply themselves from a quarter of an acre, yet their lands grow up in grass and weeds to harbor snakes and “varmints.” Let us reform. It is not yet too late to plant a garden. DeWitt’s Little Early Kisers benefit permanently. They lend gentle assis tance to nature, causing no pains or weakness, permanently curing consti pation and liver ailments. R. J. Bag well, Lawrenceville, and Dr. Hinton, Dacula. Bam Lockridge was in town Monday buying up chickens and produce from our merchants. Sam is as “regular as clock-work” in his rounds gathering up chick ens and eggs, and makes quite a success of the business. He fur nished two boys and a mule to the government in its war with Spain, and all three went to Cuba iu the service of their country. Before the regiment was mustered out at Macon, Sam went down to see his boys and found them both well. Then he looked around for his old mule, aud was happy to find that he, too, had arrived back from Cuba safe aud sound. Sam was a little short of money, else he would have bought the mule aud brought it back home with him. Thomas Rhoads, Centerfleld, 0., writes: “I suffered from piles seven or eight years. No remedy gave me relier until DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve, less than a box of which perma nently cured me.” Soothing, healing, perfectly harmless. Beware of coun terfeits. R.J. Bagwell, Lawrenceville, and Dr. Hinton, Dacula. The concert ar.d entertainment given by the Suwanee school at the auditorium of the City school Friday night was a treat highly enjoyed by the large audience present. Miss LaHaMe, the prin cipal of the school, deserves the highest praise for the thorough training she has given her pupils. Every one of the participants ren dered their parts most excellently, and had we the space the News- Herald would take pleasure in commending each one separately; but suffice it to say no public en tertainment has been given in our city in years that has so highly pleased our people as this one. Miss LaHatte is a most accom plithed lady, and has done a great work in her school at Suwanee. The &tay of the visitors in our city was rendered most pleasant by the hospitality of those of our citizens who threw their homes open to them durirg their visit. Coroner Wilson has been using 12 jurors iu holding inquests, whereas the law only proaide%for 6. This fact was pointed out by ’Squire John M. Mills, when he was summoned last Saturday as a juror in the inquest held over the body of the uegro, John Johnson. ’Squire Mills refused to obey the summons on the ground that an inquest with 12 jurors would be contrary to law, consequently il legal. At first the Coroner was disposed to controvert ’Squire Mills’ version of the law, and proceeded to summon 12 men, as 1 had been his practice heretofore.! But when the revised statutes of 1898 were consulted he acquiesced to the law, and the inquest was held with only 6 jurors. The question nnw arises, what will our county authorities do when they come to audit the bills of cost for iuquests held heretofore with 12 jurors? Clearly, only 6 are en titled to pay, and it may be that the verdicts will be set aside as illegal, and the county saved the expense. While the taxable prop erty of the county is ou the de crease, there is no reason why the county should be run to unneces sary expense, but ou the other hand the brakes should be applied whenever the opportunity offers, Carff From Mis: LaHatte. Atlanta, Ga., June 26, 1899. Editor McNellet: In behalf of the patrons and all others con nected with the Suwanee High School, I desire, through your col umns, to express our thanks and to manifest our high appreciation of the many courtesies shown us by the citizens of Lawrenceville during our recent visit to your de lightful city. We especially thank the people for their liberal patron age and the good order given us during the progress of ourcoDcert. We had a most delightful visit, which will be long remembered by our young people. Miss Clio LaHatte. I Fine Samples of Wheat- Xorcrohs, Ga., June 24, 1899. Editor News-Herald : I send you* sample of wheat heads grown by Mr. M. C. Med lock near this place, which goes to show that wheat can be grown very success fully in this grand old county of Gwinnett. . Mr. Medlock procured the seed of this wheat from the north-iyest some two years ago, known as the “Harvest King.” A very fine crop was made of it last year, but rust appeared on it this year and caused a considerable shrinkage. You will notice the heads run from 6 to 8 inches long, and some with 4 grains to the mesh. What we need is more grain crops and less cotton, aud then we will board at home and get more for our cotton. However, I think we are improving along this line, but let the good work go on—there is more room yet. Respectfully, S. T. M. Elroy. The B. Y F. U. Convention Vis S. A. L.
