The State Fair opened up Wed
nesday in Atlanta with flying col
ors. Next Tuesday And Wednes
day are Dewey and Brumby days
and 100,000 visitors are expected.
Admiral Dewey has accepted in
vitations to visit Savannah, Ma
con, Augusta and Charleston.
Dewey accepts every thing that
comes along, and if tendered the
nomination for the Presidency he
would accept it so quick it would
make your head swim.

They Don’t Want it-
We are glad to know that the
majority of Gwinnett’s best citi
zens are opposed to a dispensary
at their county capitol. We teel
no uneasiness now whatever, that
such a curse will be thrust upon
our good neighbors. The News-
Herald, one of the very best and
most conservative weekly newspa
pers in the state, has given to the
people its disapproval of such a
move; but not before going among
the people of the county and
sounding their sentiments. For
this, we are displeased with broth
er McNeiley. He should have de
nounced the move when it was first
brought before the people several
weeks ago
With our eyes, we cau see no
other light, than that it is a piece
of cowardice on the part of any
county to whip the devil around
the stump in any such manner.
As a rule, the people who favor a
dispensary, will wink at a “blind
*: a
tiger” in their town.
Now of course there are a few
exceptions, for some men advocate
a dispensary, conscientiously be
lieving it to be for tha betterment
of the people. But they are very
scarce.
We are prouder of old Gwin
nett than ever. We congratulate
heir on the sound judgment of the
masses of her good citizens.
Now with such sound heads as
Gwinnett has, there cau be no ex
cuse for allowing “blind tigers”
to flourish within her boundary.
We believe new and renewed ef
forts will be put to task aud rid
the good town of Lawreuceville of
all the whiskey sellers that have
defied law and order for lo these
many years.
Gwinnett is all right- and will
never be found willfully toleratiug
a thing that will bring shame and
sinfulness upon her proud and am
bitious yeomanry.—Winder Dem
ocrat.

A REPLY.
The News-Herald of September 29th
asked why the last grand jury did not
cut down their pay to $1.50 per day. I
will answer this question by giving ttie
three ballots had in the grand jury
room: First ballot for SI.OO per day
had two votes, James Wilson and my
self were the voters. Second ballot 'or
$1.50 per day had nine votes. Third
ballot for $2.00 per day had 14 votes.
Now, Mr. Rounder, give us justice
when you ask us to be measured by
your half bushel. My opinion is that
all men subject to road and jury duty
should be put on an equality. There
are 2,000 road hands that work the
roads free. Why do they do this ? Be
cause they feel it their duty, and owe
this work to the county free. Let us
look at the jury : There are about 250
men, old and-young, who serve part of
the time, whether on or off the jury,
draw $2.00 per day. Now, give all men
justice, and put every juror, young or
old, on the same footing with the road
hand, free work for all
There are a good many tax payers
asking what has become of the SO,OOO
paid out since last March term of the
Superior court. I will give them all
the information I have. We found
while examening the treasurer’s books
last court that there had been paid out
fur the City court for the month of Ju
ly SOBO. This court is held- four times
each year, and every day in the year if
necessary. If the tax payers do not
understand why this SOBO is paid out
and for what purpose and to whom
paid, consult the treasurer and his
books. I mean that the SOBO was drawn
out of the treasury in July, last, for
City court purposes.
The News-Herald has pulled the vote
on the dispensary question, the gentle
man from Buford has killed the name
and a Mr. Brooks has preached its fu
neral. But she’s still living aud healthy.
If all Mr. Brooks has said about wjiisky
aud meu who drink it aud sell it be
true, the good Master had as well look
the doors to His kingdom, i can very
clearly see why the gentleman from
Buford is so ready to condemn the dis
pensary. It has been proven thatthere
is a two-horse wagon load of whisky
sold in and around Buford every week,
for from 75c to SI.OO per gallon. This
is a great saving to the whisky drink
ers, but it defeats the U. S. Government
of sl.lO per gallon and the county of
50c per gallon, if we had a dispensary.
This same Buford gentleman seems to
have full control of the voters as well
as the whisky of all of Buford district,
as he says no man will be voted for in
Buford district if he ruus on the dis
pensary ticket or makes an effort to
pass sucli a bill. I suppose that this
threat willYrigtiten the voters of ttie
county so badly that there will he but
one vote polled for the dispensary. I
am still in favor of the dispensary, and
believe it is the only hope to stop the
illegal traffic of blind tiger whisky.
The U. 8. Government has failed, and
so has the state of Georgia. It is the
duty of every tax-payer of Gwinnett
county to vote for a dispensary if he
has any respect for his labor or his
pocket-book. Taxes are growing and
labor decreasing. We must have re
lief in some way. Give us a dispensa
ry or something better. The line is
clearly drawn between the better class
who oppose the dispensary and every
blockader and blind tiger whisky deal
er. They are all voting side by side
and rejoicing over their great majority
for blockade and blind tige whisky.
This is a hard combination to beat.
I ask. where are we at ?
S. E. McDaniel has brought in one
more horse. 1 think it should have
been a mule, as he blow s hot and cold
at the same breath. When he wauts
whisky he wants to step out to a blind
tiger and get it. Who is beneUtted '>
Mr. McDaniel and the blind tiger. He
claims that the Solicitor General will
pull all the boys of this county forget
ting poisoned at the dispensary; and
that it will make room for a fat job for
some of my friends. This is like a good
many other things that iiave been
claimed by people who iiave not knowl
edge sufficient to know what is best for
them and the balance of the county for
which they speak. 1 will ask Mr Mc-
Daniel to step over in Clarke county
and call at the dispensary in Athens,
where it has been running for several
years, ami by a leading member of the
Baptist church. This man will tell ,
him that there has not been a boy in j
that dispensary ficjm (lie time it was
opened up to the present day. This man |
will also tell McDaniel that it has paid
every tax payer a considerable part of
his tax. He w ill further tell him that
there are less true bills in Clark coun
ty for blind tigers thin in any county
iu the western circuit. He will further
tell him that the revenue officers rarely
cut down a blockade still or capture a
blind tiger. He will further tell him
that there are two institutions in Ath
ens that can buy out Gwinnett county.
He will further tell him that Athens
has some of the best and most learned
preachers iu this state, and two as fine
sellools as can be found south of the
Mason and Dixon line. All or this
wisdom, religion and wealth is now
pitted against I.uxomui aud S. E. Mc-
Daniel, for AUiens has a dispensary,
and the same run by a leading member
of the Baptist church. 1 will give Mr.
McDaniel and all the rest of the gen
tlemen aud Lodges my experience in
Athens. I have bad children in Ath
ens schools for fifteen years. I have
attended most all the commencements
of both schools during this time. I
was ill Athens while the barrooms were
in full operation. I saw while the bar
rooms were there 800 drinking and

I saw a negro man strike a white man
and knocked him t,o his knees. I then
saw I(X) knives, pistols and sticks drawn
by white men. There would have been
a bloody scene had it not been for the
police. This was the case at almost ev
ery commencement, except the killing,
f have attended the commencements
since the dispensary has been in oper
ation three times, that is, once a year
for three years. I have never seen a
drunk man, white or black, on the
streets of that city during this time. I
j have never seen a fight or any other
difficulty during this time. Mr. Mc-
Daniel can run or patronize his blind
tige, or put up a dispensary of his own
in every district in the county if he
thinks it best to have whisky close at
hand, and fill all the fat places that he
mentions in his objection to the Law
renceville dispensary; provided, he
will turn over the profits to the tax
payers of Gwinnett county by placing
the same in the treasurer’s hands for
county purposes

SPINNERS PREFER KOVNUIAP
BALES.
The Detuand in New Knglaad and Abroad
Largely in Eic«m of Last Year’s.
The spinners of New England,
having learned by experience of
the advantages conferred by its
use, are heavy buyers of the Amer
ican Cotton Company’s Roundlap
baled cotton. One Massachusetts
mill alone bought 25,000 Roundlap
bales the latter part of September,
and purposes hereafter using no
cotton packed by any other meth
od if it can get enough Roundlap
bales to supply its spindles. An
other Massachusetts mill has
bought 8,000 Roiuiplap bales this
season, and twenty-five other New
England mills have ordered small
er lots.
The European demand for the
American Cotton Company’s bales
is largely in excess of last season’s.
Early in October 8,000 Roundlap
bales for Livereool were shipped
from Galveston in one steamer.
Shipments go forward regularly to
Genoa, Harve, Bremen and Barce
lona.
RESOLUTIONS OE WARNING.
Whereas. the illegal manufacture anti sale of
whisky is being carried on in open detlance of
! law in this, New Hope community, Gwinnett
‘ county, and
i Whereas, such sale and manufacture of whis
i ky is a menace to the community, a hindrance
to the progress of our churches, a barrier in
the way of education, and a sin against God,
1 Therefore, be it resolved,
i First, That we, the undersigned, call upon
: (he manufacturers and trafheers in whisky in
this community to desist from their illegal
practices, without being presented to the au
thority of the law.
Second, That while we would regret very
much to present any one to the oourts, yet we
p edge ourselves to report and prosecute any
violator of the revenue or state laws who may
come under our observation, provided said vio
lator cannot he induced to desist from said
violation without prosecution.
Third, That we are unequivocally opposed
to the establishment of a dispensary in the town
of Lawreneeville, believiug such action would
be detrimental to the best interests of our coun
ty. We urge our representatives to oppose the
establishment of a dispensary.
Fourth, That these resolutions be published,
so that all parties have a fair warning.
