Peacock will preach at Fair view on the 3rd Sabbath in this month. J. C. Williams. The News-Herald makes an apology for connecting Mr. Seab Fambro, who used to live near Lawreuceville, with the Fambro murder case in Walton county. Our Mr. Fambro moved to Texas, where he recently died. Remember that. Rutledge & Clower are having a special March sale 1 Mrs. Georgia A. Sanders, wife of J. F, Sanders, died Friday, the 9th inst., and was buried at Bay Creek cemetery on Saturday. And on the 12th inst. Mrs. Nancy Gres ham, wife of W. P. Gresham, died. Both of these ladies lived in sight of each other, only three hundred yards apart. In this issue appears the an nouncement of Mr. James R. Gar ner for the office of Tax Receiver. Mr. Garner is a good citizen, a loyal democrat, and will receive strong support throughout the county. He is the first to make his announcement. Who will be the next to announce ? We are sorsy that Col. E. S. V. Briaut continues too feeble to do much in court, although in his zeal to do justice to his clients he ventured a trip to Atlanta Monday morning to look after one in the U.S. Court. He feels indebted to Cols. Armstead and Russell for courtesies shown him while in At lanta. Mr. W. O. Cooper informs us that the Gate City Oil Company is contemplating the building of a large improved cotton ginnery, either at this place or Loganville. Lawreneeville is very much in need of an up-to-date ginnery, and we hope that she may be fort unate in securing the location of this plant. Mr. C. D. Jacobs informs us that he will not be a candidate for County Treasurer this year. Gwinnett has never had a more efficient treasurer than Mr. Jacobs, and if he had not come to this conclusion and had entered the race for re-election, it is highly probable that he would have met with success. Dilmns Jacobs is one of Gwinnett’s staunchest citi zens, and we would that there were more like him. “He that seeks finds. ” He that takes Hood’s Sarsaparilla finds in its lire pure, rich blood and conse quently good health. Some time ago it was announced iu these columns that Mr. J. G. Mewborn and Miss Lula Langford were married. This information came through our correspondent in that community, and we pub lished the announcement in good faith. However, as soon as Mr. Mewborn had read the announce ment he sent us a card bitterly denying the marriage and de nounced our correspondent in pretty strong terms We pub lished the card and made an apol ogy to Mr. Mewborn for the mis take. We are again informed that it is a certainty that they have been recently married, and after all the News-Herald didn’t make such a great mistake. When you read anything iu the News- Herald you may rest assured that if it hasn’t happened already it will occur soon. Our wishes are extended them for long, happy I and prosperous lives. If possible our worthy Solicitor becomes more efficient in the dis charge of his duties each c >urt. ; Certainly Charley Brand hasn't a superior at the bar of North-East Georgia. Wm. M. Langley, the efficient Justice of the Peace in Lawreuce ville district, is very likely to be a candidate for Coroner in the next democratic primary. His card will appear in due time. The entfrtainmeut of G. Ls- Forest Wood at the City school last Tuesday night was a splendid success. There was a good au dience present, and every one went away highly pleased with the evening. Things needed in Lawreuceville when our factory is completed: A guano factory, an oil mill, an elec tric plant, water works and anoth er factory. This is within the reach of our enterprising citizens, and you can bet on such coming. The small attendance at court this term is very Boticable. Judge Russell’s calendar system is doubt less the only explanation for it. All the cases are set and you only have to come one day, certainly not attend two weeks. This is unquestionably a great saving to our county. The Candidates on the Primary. During Superior court we have interviewed almost all the prob able candidates on a white demo cratic primary. Not a single can didate has opposed it, and all, but two, have openly declared themselves for it. When we have given every candidate a chance to express himself, the interviews will be published. JL NOTICE. At the next regular con vocation of Mount Vernon Chap ter, No. 89, R. A. M., on tomorrow night, there will be work in Mark Master and Past Master degrees. All affiliating Royal Arch Masons are invited to be presentJ B. L. Patterson, H. P. Gwinnett County Proud of Hon- John E. Cooper. He is a candidate for Solicitor- General of the Macon circuit. He was born and reared in Gwinnett county; educated himself; iB a graduate of the State University, and in a brief period of ten years practice, mainly of the criminal law, he has won a most enviable reputation, and stands at the head of his profession. His friends over the state boast of his un questioned ability to defend suc cessfully, which bespeaks for him that high attainment necessary for a prosecuting officer. He is man ly, sober, honest and apright, and possesses merit and competency scarcely excelled by any. We wish for him the reward of success in his ambition to represent our state in her prosecutions against crime. He will make a high-toned race ou merit and competency. Central Temperance Committee. Tuesday uight the following cit izens of Lawreuceville organized a Central Temperance Committee, viz: T. R. Powell, W. M. Sasser, A. H. Holland, M. S. Cornett, J. H. McGee, J. P. Austin, T. .B. Bush. Organization was perfected by the election of A. H. Holland as chairman and T. B. Bush secreta ry. The object of this committee is to effect organization through out the county for the promotion of the cause of temperance and state prohibition. And this com mittee, composed of members of the different denominational churches in the county, request and expect the co-operation and hearty support of the church members throughout the county. We, therefore, request that the pastors of each and every church in the county send in to the chair man or secretary of this commit tee their address, in order that we may communicate with them, looking to the organization and appointment by them of temper auce committees in their churches. We wish it to be distinctly under stood that this is not an effort to organize a political party, but a move on the part of the temper ance people looking to the ad vancement of the temperance cause through their respective parties.
