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.

BROG DON, SUWANISE, GA. 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 drunk meu, black and white, I saw ODe negro man shot dead in his tracks. 1 lot of wonder shirts, laundried slick ss Kla*-, arolmt at 4#c.

Jeans, 20c goods, 10c yard. 1 piece gray Ladies Cloth, 54 inches wide, 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 E. M. Brand. SNELLVILLE. Special to THE NEWS. John Ethridge and family, four in number, are lying at the point of death. Felin Ethridge is better, but pretty bad off yet. E. C. McDaniel, of Lilburn, was here Tuesday. R. L. Shell aud E. C. McDaniel made a business trip to McDon ough Monday. Cotton seems to be pretty near all out of the field, and people have commenced turning their laud. Have you, Mr. Editor, ever as certained how the people stood on the City court question ? Better ask about 100 country people how they stand. Your correspondent, together with his neighbors, is op posed to the bill forbidding sein ing in the waters of Gwinnett. 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.
