Entered at Lawrenceville Jpogtoffice as second-class matter. PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY Official Organ Gwinnett County. Lawrenceville Publishing Co., Proprietors. "W. Q-. McHslley, Editor. A farmer in Berrien county Bays a pair of white mocking birds have been nesting in his yard a couple of years. Col. Tom Bell, the affable and brainy Clerk of the Superior court of Hall county, is being groomed for Congressional honors by his frieuds, as the successor of Col. Tate. “The Georgia Record” is the name of a sprightly little weekly paper issued in Atlanta, with Col. Robt. L. Rogers as editor. It is as bright as a silver dollars and expresses itself in plain language. Success to the Record. When Gen’l. Joe Wheeler ar- rives in the Philippines you are going to hear good reports from our soldiers, and the fighting will begin in earnest. If Gen’l. Otis will just staud aside and give Fighting Joe full swing there won’t be a greasy spot left of Aguinaldo’s army by Christinas. The only hope for high-priced cotton this fall is in a calamity to the growing crop. That Texas dis aster was just a drop in the buck et, destroying only 200,000 bales. It will require a destruction of at least a million bales to bring high prices. Now is the time for the calamity howlers to get in their work. Hon. Howard Thompson, of Gainesville, was attending City court here this week. Howard has many friends in Gwinnett, and it is freely predicted by some of those who voted against him in the last race that he could easi.y carry this couuty against Col. Tate should he again offer for Congress. Rev. Brough ton’s charges against Mayor Woodward, of Atlanta,havo falleu flat. The prevailing opin ion seems to be that Broughton as a minister of the gospel should have gone to Woodward in a quiet way and extended a helping hand, instead of denouncing him from the pulpit. Woodward has sinned, made confession, and has prom ised to reform. And Broughton has shown himself to be revenge ful and hyena-like in his conduct toward Woodward; quite the wrong spirit for a follower of the meek and lowly Nazarine. The News-Herald has it from good authority that the editor of the Jackson Herald. Hon. John N. Holder, at present a member of the lower house of the General Assembly, will allow his name to be used as a candidate for Senator from his seqatorial district, this being Jackson’s turn to furnish the candidate. Mr. Holder not only successfully manages the Jackson Herald, one of the best weeklies in,Georgia, but is promi nent in politics and in all that appertains to the welfare and pros perity of Jackson county. He made an excellent record as a wise, intelligent and safe legislator at the first session of this legislature, and if elected to the Senate we predict that he will easily rank with its leaders. Thomas Rhoads, CenterfiWd, ()., writes: “1 suffered from piles seven or eight years. Jfo remedy gave me relief until DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve, less than a box of which perma nently cured me.” Soothing, healing, perfectly harmless. Beware of coun terfeits. H.J. Bagwell, Lawrenceville, and Dr. Hinton, Dacula. Col. William J. Bryan, while in Gainesville Thursday night, was the recipient of a bale of cotton, presented by Col. Charles Webb one of biggest cotton OT c?uyenTof that section. The bale was in the form of the new Low ry round lap bale, and was presented in a neat speech by Col. Webb, and accepted in as neat a response by Col. Bryan. The Governor of the state, of whose staff Col Webb is a member, was likewise present ed with one of the new compress ed bales as a souvenir of his visit to his home city and h' r Chau tauqua. Mr. Webb has put in compresses for baling Ihe new bales at Jefferson, Harmony Grove, Mouroe, Gillsville and other points in North Georgia. TAXES HIS PATIENCE. Col, W. J, Bryan, the silver knight of the wost, has been in terviewed by Trox Bankston, the versatile editor of the Ringgold j New South. In the course of his remarks Col. Bryan said: “It taxes my patience to talk to a gold bug. It requires all my Christian fortitude and pa tience to -lo it.” No doubt the “goldhug” is a thorn in the flesh to Col. Bryan, but he should remember “gold i bugs” have as much right to their | opinions as we have to ours. There are thousands of loyal democrats who differ with us on the currency question, aud if we are to treat them fairly we must accord to them sincerity of purpose aud honesty of thought in their views. And Col. Bryan should not allow the tension cord of his “Christian fortitude and patience to be un duly strained when he meets up with them. It looks now as if he will secure the democratic nomiuation for the presidency, and in that event be will need their votes, aB well as those of the “silver bugs,” to land him in the presidential chair. If the Canton Advance and Al pharetta Free Press are authorized to speak for Col. Tate, the next Congressman from this district will be selected by a white prima ry, in which event white demo crats in the 9th district will staud on a level. The candidate receiv ing the iargest number of votes will be the democratic standard bearer. This will obviate the ne cessity of a farcial convention, in which everything is cut and dried beforehand, and will bring the candidates direct before the popu lar will of the party. This is as it should be, and we are glad to see that Col, Tate and his sup porters have recognized the fair uess of the plan proposed. The ratio of representation in the con vention has heretofore been mani- festly unfair to the large and pop ulous counties of the district, and when Hon, J. T. Baxter, a Tate delegate from this county in the last convention, Bought to remedy the evil, he was unceremoniously “sot down” on by the Tate dele gates from “beyai: t the mountings.’ However, the justice of Col. Bax ter’s protest is now beiDg recog nized, and a change is so mani festly necessary to the purification of 9th district politics that it can not longer be resisted, unless open revolt is invited. We do not un dertake to gainsay Col. Tate’s pop ularity before the masses of the white democrats of the district, or his ability to again capture the nomiuation in a white primary, but we do insist that there are other democrats in the district as worthy of honors as he. And the sentiment is growing, without prejudice to Col. Tate, that he has held ttie position long enough and should now gracefully retire and give others a pull at the public teat. Now that poor Montgomery Fol som is no more, his praises are be ing sung on every side, and the newspapers are filled with loving tributes to his memory. His was indeed a sad life and a sadder end ing. His death brings to us many solemn thoughts. Hoy much hap pier his earthly career might have been had some of the flowers that were laid at his bier been strewn in his pathway during his pilgrimage here below, and how much sweeter could his songs of nature have made his own life could he have heard the applauditß of his friends, ere the summons came calling him to his last sleep. Had some loving hand been stretched forth to help him, when his very soul yearned for strength, his bright genius and his life might have been spared for many years to come. But the cruel winds of fate blew few blossoms iu Folsom’s way. as the waves tossed him from pillar to post; and yet his tired and bleeding heart cried out, and his soul thirsted for the milk of human kindness. Uncomplain ingly he bore his cross like a martyr, scattering sunshine by his genius in the lives of others, yet his own pathway was hedged about with briars and tangled weeds. While it is of courso con soling to his family and friends know that in his death the ' , , , , good deeds that came from,, - , . , , « «v'uis sympa thetic and truly.t* , , , . , V-'.ioble heart are to e remem an( j cherished, and aSM-wmve in song and story, yet we can but refrain a tear of sor row and a sigh of regret when we remember that the raiubow of hope might have appeared before his vision and spared him to us had some of the blossoms that came in such profusion after the cord of life was broken been strewn among the thorns as ho battled with the adversities of life. Indeed how much happier the lives of all of us would be could the garlands b 8 woven before the flower withers and while thewarm blood of life courses through our veins, rather than af ter the advent of old Father Time, sythe and hour glass in hand,as he calls to summon us home to the house of our fathers. MODERN POLITICS IN KENTUCKY. From the Sandusky (O) Register. Politics is lively in Kentucky. When Goebel was nominated for Governor by the Democracy, Stone who was knocked out sent by a friend to Goebel this mes sage: “You are a damned liar, thief and scoundrel.” Goebel returned this message: “My complements to Captain Stone, and nay to him that I say he is a damned fool.” No blood has been shed and may not be by these fellow Democrats. In the “good old days” of Ken tucky chivalry Goebel would have demanded satisfaction at once foi being called a thief, a liar and a scoundrel. Now-a-days politicians takt that sort of thing without getting mad, unless they fill up on whiskey, thereby work up cour age and run amuck on the high way. Goebel having won out in the convention is as cool as a cucum ber aud happy as a clam at high tide. Stone having been defeated dose not take defeat gracefully, and is mad clean through to the marrow of his bones. Yet before the election comes he will be stumping the state for Goebel and dividing pot luck over a cold bottle with the man he now calls “a thief, a liar and a damn ed scoundrel. ” Sensitive people may think this very wicked, but in truth it is modern politics, and modem pol itics is a very nasty pool, and he who enters it leaves personal honor behind or he can’t be in the swim. W ANTS TO SEE THE ELEPHANT. From Tfote Georgia Record. On lust Tuesday at Baruesville the Chautaqua had the attraction of a speech from the late Colonel Wjlliam J. Bryan, a Nebraska Populist Politician, and ex-Con gressmau, and a whilom cauidate for President on a puddling Populist platform, the great American cyclone orator and self nominator, and peripatetic .bab bler about silver. On the same day, in the evening, he came to this city, so it is reported, aud was the chief guest at a banquet. The daily papers printed notices of the affair, and a list of names of “those to bo present.” What sort of league politic? is this ex clusive arrangement? In olden times it use to be so that when a “big man” came to town as an as pirant for office, or exponent of any party policy, or political prin ciple, he would mix and mingle amongst all the people, and with out any printed list of a 1 charm ed circle” who would surround him. How about this Bryan bus iness? Is Democracy only illus trated in a league of adolescence? Are the people, the great body of people, those who are the founda tion of republican government of Democratic principles, not to be permitted to “see jthe elephant?” Now that Fighting “Joe Wheel er is to go to the Philippines the best thing that Aguinaldo can do for himself is to get off the earth entirely.—Valdosta Times. Mrs. Nellie H. Gordon, wife of Gen. W.W. Gordon, has falleu heir to a fortune of $85,000, left by her uncle, the late Julian Ma gill, of Chicago.

Bagwell, Lawrem’—rf.T' and Dr. Hinton, Dacoi" ’ A p oe t talks about Uu c*e cam and the Philippines as follows : “Spain she had a little lamb, the slickest lamb around. She sold the lamb to Uncle Sam for twenty million down; then, Sam he tooked it by the tail, to lead it home, you know; the mut ton rare turned out a bear, and Sam he can’t let it go.”—Moultrie Observer. Bob Berner made the Fourth of July speech at Augusta and among other things, said: “It is the duty of every American to give hearty support to the admin istration as long as an enemy op poses our flag ou sea or land,” and the sentiment was loudly ap plauded. Beruer evidently thinks the interests of his coun try should be the first considera teon .—Valdosta Times. B A ralltivod Ilr. Miles’ Nerve Clusters. 1 WHO IS TO BLAME T If the statements of the ad mistration at Washington are true General Otis will have to bear much of the blame for the failure of the campaign in the Philippines. It will be remem bered that some time ago, mes sages from him stated that he had sufficient force upon the island to suppress the rebellion. It is evi dent that the administration placed confidence in his state ments, though we believed from the first that a mistake was being made in underestimating the strength of the enemy. In a re cent interview with a reporter, Secretary Alger is quoted as say ing: . “As long as Major General Otis is in command of the military forces in the Philippines—and I havo no idea that he will bo re -4 lieved—ho is the man to deter mine the number of men he should have to crush the insurrec tion. The president stands ready to give him every man, every sup ply, every piece of equipment he asks for. He has asked for 30,- <XX) men, and they will be given him. All the information I have received from General Otis hps been given to the president. Anybody’s opinion on the situa tion is as good as mine. To me the condition of affairs, is satis factory” It is clearly the purpose of the Secretary to shift the entire re sponsibility to the shoulders of Goneral Otis. It may be true that General Otis misled the ad ministration by his rosy views of conditions on the island, but part of the blame must fall on the ad ministration all the same. The hair-breadth escapes in Cuba should have been a warning to the war department, to say noth ing of the counsel given by promi nent army officials who had studi ed the situation in Luzon.—Val dosta Times. QIIEEN VIC. Since her coronation, Queen Victoria has been in receipt of nearly $3,000,000 a year from the government Of this about $600,- 000 goes for salaries of her house hold, $60,000 for bounties and alms, $96,000 for annuities and pensions and $750,000 for miscel laneous expenses. She also re ceives $450,000 a year from the Duchy of Lancaster. Other mem bers of the royal family receive annuities amounting to $875,000. FOWL AND BACON. Clean a fowl, fill with bread stuffing and truss lor roasting. Cover the outside with slices of bacon tied to keep them in place and steam for two hours, or until the bird is tender. Remove the string and bacon, aud place on the rack in the baking pan. Put the bacon underneath. Dredge the fowl with salt, pepper and flour and bake to a nice brown, basting often with some of the broth, to which butter may be ad ded if necessary. IIETTKK PRICE FOB COTTON. Mr T. W. Pratt, President of the west Huntsville Cotton Mill, Hunts ville, Alabama, in additoin to his ex tensive cotton manufacturing inter ests is running what is said to be one of the largest cotton ginning plants in the world. Mr. Pratt has made a through investigation of the Roundlap bale in his mill, and recently publish ed a letter, in wnich he said that cot ton in this form was worth $2.00 a bale inora to his mill than square-bale cotton. Recently he telegraphed as follows: “After two years experience with the Roundlap bale as the American Cotton Company as a manufacturer, I can postively state that my experience is that it can be sampled equally as well as the square bale; that it saves in waste, that it uuwinds the core perfectly, and saves much labor In the opening room. Mixed are false pack ed bales or never found. For the planter, ginner and manufacturer it is the greatest invention of the age.” Cartersvillo News: Dr. W. E. Thompson lost five more cows by them getting into a sorghum patch Mouduy night. He lost several about a week ago. It seems that the sorghum is very poisonous at a certain stage, and farmers should be very careful about their stock getting to it.
