At the entrance of Dr. Winn’s

as a stepping stone for many
years. Last week, someone turn
ed the slab over and found
the following inscription: “Be
neath this marble rests in peace
ful hope the body of John Lucus
a deciple of the blessed Jesus. He
was born in Curry county, Va.,
Jan. 11, 1765. Immigrated to
Georgia in 1796. Joined the Meth
odist church in Oct. 1802, and
left this world Oct. Ist, 1831, in
full assurance of possessing a
mansion in the House, not made
with hands. His faith rested en
tirely ou the promises and atone
ment, a dying, risen and interced
ing Jesus; and produced in him,
its uniform fruits, holiness of life,
peace of soul, and joy in the holy
ghost, and ultimately death full
of immortal hope.”
TO THE FARMERS.
Plailt enough corn to do you,
and then put in all the cotton you
can possibly cultivate, —put it in
the garden, fence comers and back
yard. The price will open up at
7/ or more next fall. This will net
you $lO per bale profit. Take my
advice, aud plant all jour land in
cotton, reserving only enough for
your necessary corn.
The farmer will make more clear
money this year than any year
since 1875. Every farmer who
has followed my suggestions nas
cold cash to his credit in our bank,
—every one of them.
W. S. WITHAM
STOCK SUBSCRIBERS
TO MBET MARCH 13th,
AT 1 P M. FOR THE PURPOSE OF
ORGANIZATION.
This is the result of a recent
communication from Mr. Witharn.
since it was shown that we only
need about $2,000 to complete our
undertaking of raising $35,000,
which amount can easily be gotten
up between now aud the date of
organization.
this news will be received with
great interest throughout this sec
tion, a 6 a cotton factory in Law
renceville means one for each of
her neighboring towns.
While we are not in a position
to start with a mill ot the size of
those that other towns have start
ed with, yet it is only a question
of a short time till this capital
will be more than doubled.
Those who have taken such an
active part in obtaining subscrip
tions for this enterprise are to be
justly congratulated, for ctrtainly
a more up-hill fight has never
been experienced in such a move
anywhere. The many obstacles
which confronted this move were
due largely to the unfortunate re
sults of the former mill here. This
objection could be largely remov
ed if the auti-mitl men would in
vestigate the cause of the failure.
The facts about the failure of the
old cotton mill are these: they
started with the mill covered
by a $40,000 mortgage, and
a set of men wholly inexperi
enced to operate it. After some
time, and with a great loss, they
realized their incompetency to
promote such a business and
they obtained the services of a
practical mill man, which resulted
in a most satisfactory showing up
to the time the mill was de
stroyed by fire.
With this in view, can anyone
fail to uuderstaud the misfortune
of the old mill ?
That Lawrenceville is on the eve
of a great boom, you have only to
observe the history of all manu
facturing towns for the past ten
years. Every subscriber to the
Gwinnett Cotton Mills is earnest
ly requested to be present on the
above date, as there are many
questions of vast importance to
be passed upon.

A Wonderful Invention.
Dr, T. T. Key, of Norcross, who
owns the right to manufacture and
sell the Kyle Hav Press, was in
town this week shaking hands with
his friends and exhibiting his press,
which he claims to be the best,
simplest and cheapest press ever
invented. This press is certainly
what every farmer needs. The
price at which it is sold puts it
within the reach of every farmer.
The work is done expediciously.
From three to ten bales can be
pressed par hour, making a great
saving in time and money, to say
nothing of utilizing of room. See
this press and order one.

Following is a synopsis of pro
ceediugs of the Executive Commit
tee of the People’s Party of Gwin
nett county, March 6th, 1900:
The meeting was called to order
by the Chairman, and W. M. Jor
dan was elected Secretary pro tern.
The roll was called aud nearly
every district in the county was
represented.
The following resolutions were
offered aud unanimously adopted:
Ist. That we reaffirm allegi
ance to the principles of the Peo
ple’s Party as set forth in the
Omaha platform of 1892, and re
iterated at St. Louis in 1896, hence
commend the bolting members of
our national committee atLincolu,
Neb , Feb. 19th, 1900, aud pledge
them our support.
2. Having been schooled to aid
io the maintenance of law aud or
der, and to assist in the elevation
oi the human race mentally, mor
ally aud socially, we believe it to
be the duty of all law-abiding cit
izens to stand firmly by the insti
tution, society or party that has
for its cardinal principle the pre
vention of crime and the suppres
sion of all local, sectional and na
tional prejudices. And to this eud
we pledge a hearty co-operation
with others equally as honest and
earnest in their endeavors.
Tho committee decided (in view
of the fact that it will be but a
short lime until the convention
meets) to elect delegates to the
State ConAentiou, which meets in
Atlanta April 10, 1900. The fol
lowing delegates were elected and
given power to select their own al
ternates: W. W. Wilson, W.
M. Jordan, John W. Morgan and
H. L. Peeples.
It was ordered that the Chair
man of each district in the county
be requested to call a meeting of
the People’s Party of his district
on or before the 4th Saturday in
March for the purposa of electing
five men from each district to serve
as an Executive Committee for the
next two years, and that the new
committee be subject to the call
ot the present county chairman
whenever he thinks the interests
of the party demand it.
The following motion was made
and adopted unanimously:
That it is the sense of this meet
ing that a County Convention be
| called at such a time as the new
! committee shall direct, for the
I purpose of nominating candidates
for the senate, legislature and for
the different couuty offices.
A resolution was adopted re
questing the Plow Boy and The
Nbws-Herald to publish the pro
ceedings of this meeting.

And didn’t tho Board of Educa
tion make a wise choice? They
could not have made a better se
