Mr. Mauldin Replies.
To The News: —Please give me
space in your paper to reply to a card
from W. C. Cole, published in The
News, Oct. Bth, 1897.
Now,Mr. Editor, as to a lie being re
ported from Hog Mountain, as Mr,
|Cole alleges, I know nothing about it,
rnor do 1 know anything about Mr.
Cole try i ng to get Sugar Eberhart, col
ored, to take the post office at Teagle.
Mr. Cole says, “I don’t know your ne
gro.” That makes no difference to me
whether he knows tht negro or not.
Mr. Cole says : “1 denounce the author
of the card as a liar and a cur.” I am
not educated and don’t know the mean
ing of big words, but I reckon Mr.
Cole had reference to the political
creed of the author. It looks to me
mighty like they have politics in and
about postoftices.
If I was going to compare political
.parties to dogs 1 would say the lying
Bur is more like the republican parly
anything else. I bis is because
■Pi- lie around and growl and snap at
other creeds. The negro always loves
and the republican party al
ways carries the negro. Then there is
the setter and pointer dogs. I would
compare tueiii ,‘o those politicians who
set around and growl and point out tlie
defects of the government and the de
fects of the leaders ot other creeds.
Then there is another dog, the gray
hound, which comes out ahead of every
thing, except in appointing negro
postmasters.
Mr. Cole demanded the name of the
author. lam not the writer. Neither
do 1 know who did write the card.
Mr. Cole says the present postmaster
at Cains is well known That is true.
Mr. Oole says Mr. Pool, at Teagle,
knows the little squib is a lie. I can
not say as to that. I know Mr. Pool
to be a high-toned gentleman, and he
GWINNETT COUNTY FAIR
Tasty and Handsome Exhibits in all
Departments.
The Fair a Pronounced Success.
Exhibits for the Fair began arriving
on Friday last and continued coming
in till Monday night, when the doors
were closed and the finishing touches
given.
In all departments the exhibits are
simply great—especially in the agri
cultural building.
Fine specimens of the products of
the fertile soil of grand old Gwinnett,
the banner county of the state, are
spread out to the admiring gaze of the
multitudes that thronged through to
see them.
Every district in the county is rep
resented, both in the Agricultural and
Ladies’ buildings, and the fair is pro
nounced by everyone to be a grand
success, beyond the expectations of
those who labored so earnestly for it.
Space forbids the mention of all ex
hibitors, but some of the districts de
serve special mention.
Bay Creek made a grand display of
her resources, seconded by Goodwins.
Lawrenceville district made the
finest display of corn and turnips, va
riety considered. Major Simmons had
12 varieties of corn and 9 varieties of
turnips in the exhibit.
Buford district was handsomely rep
resented, especially in the Ladies’
Building. The display of fancy needle
work was exquisite. The feather work
by Mrs. S. J. Busha attracted much ad
miration, also the hand-painted china
by Miss Lizzie Hamilton.
J. T. Baxter, of Suwanee, carries off
the biue ribbon for variety of exhibits.
He had 101 different articles from his
garden and farm in the Goodwin’s dis
trict display.
Gates district made a fine exhibit .
’Squire Tom Pate’s corn excited quite
an interest. From one acre tie made
88 bushels and 00 pounds. Pretty
good !
Pinkrieyville district also came up
with a handsome display, both of agri
cultural products and products of the
dairy .
Sugar Hill was not lagging behind
and with agricultural products and
the various articles displayed by the
fair ladies of Buford, made up one of
the best attractions of the fair.
Martins district, Pucketts, Ben
Smiths, and, in fact, every district in
the county made creditable displays.
Many big stalks of cotton are exhib
ited, the biggest one by B. F. Askew,
of Goodwins district. The stalk is
from root to top 10 feet lj4 inches
high, and contains 214 developed bolls.
Green’s Formula guano was used, and
Mr. Askew ascribes its growth partially
to that fact.
On Wednesday fully 3,000 people
were in town and the buildings in
which the exhibits were displaye J
were crowded with a mass of moving
humanity from early morn till sunset.
THE POULTRY EXHIHIT.
This exhibit attracted a great deal
of attention, and some of the finest
fowls to be found in Georgia were
shown.

China pigs and two fine stock hogs,
besides a White'Chester sow and 2 pigs,
all of which added to the big porkers
mentioned above, made up a fine dis
play of swine.
IN THE LADIES’ BUILDiNG.
The display of fancy needle work’
painting, home industry, etc., in the
Ladies’ building was simply superb,
and would do credit to even the Cen
tennial exposition at Nashville. The
building was inadequate to display
these many exhibits to advantage, but
notwithstanding this, it was the center

IN A DENTAL PALACE.
How Science and Art Have Combined to
Conquer I’ain.
We all have teeth —that is most of
us. ,
There are times when we are glad of
the fact and there are others when we
wish that teeth were not a part of our
anatomy.
It is at those times when one’s
thoughts turn toward the dentist and
one rushes into a dentist’s chair with
trembling and fear and then —protests
that the tooth has stopped aching.
All of us do it, aud its natural. We
simply by fear paralyze the dental
nerves for the moment and io, there is
no pain! It’s a case of mental power
over the nerves that ceases when you
get away aud back home to find the of
fending molar is still “at theoldstand”
and jumping fordear life.
But dentists we must have, and in
stead of being a necessary evil, the
modern up-to-date D. D. S. makes him
self a comforter—a peacemaker so to
speak—a mediator between the ner
vous disturber of your rest and your
mental self.
“Tooth carpenter” is the name by
which we know the old fogy, good-in
tentioned, poorly equipped with me
chanical appliances, but doubly blessed
with muscular power tooth pullers,
tie is out of date, out-classed these
days, and unless one wishes to pose as
a martyr, and have bis head half jerked
off, he hies himself to a place where
science has been given full sway and
where the pain question is not even
considered on account of its absence.
! was not in misery the other day
when I called iu on Dr. .1. I>. Lanier,
dean of the American Post-Graduate
Dental school of Atlanta, and the pro
prietor of what is known as “The At
lanta Dental Parlors,” located at the
corner of Peachtree and Marietta
streets. I was not in misery, as I said
before, but fully able to appreciate
the many things I saw and to tell of
them.
The name “Dental Parlors” is good,
bqfc if it were my place 1 would call it
“A Dental Palace,” for palace it is to
the poor, suffering victim, who is hunt
ing a dentist. Dr. Lanier, who is not
only aD. D. S., but a lecturer of some
note in post-graduate schools, is the
dentist in charge and sees all cases.
An experience of many years, com
bined with the most practical up-to
date ideas, has euabled him to secure
every mechanical convenience known
to the profession to reduce pain, to
bring comfort aud ease and to restore,
so far as science can do, our teeth to
what nature intended them to be.
The reception rooms are elegant in
tDeir furnishings and equal to the par
lor of any city mansion . They sug
gest comfort ou your first entrance
and when the easy, air-cushioned head
rest is beneath your bead as you lay
back in the dentist’s chair, you are
prepared for what follows —practically
painless treatment wherever it is pos
sible.
The laboratory, the post-graduate
school and business offices are appro
priately furnished and equipped. In
the school in which only graduated
dentists are, the student’s plates are
made and laboratory work conducted.
Anything that cau be done'for the
teeth, from removing an offender tothe

The bright days—they .ire coming, no matter

And sometime—in the future, in the golden

The bright days—they are coming: there’s a

In the storm that sheds its shadows ou the starry

And some time—in the future, when the clouds

The sun will greet the morning and the night

The bright days—they are coining: in the cities

There’ll be angels at the windows and they’ll

In Mem my of Miss Sallie Os
born
Miss Sallie Osborn was born in
Towns county May 19, 1869; departed
this life near Suwanee, Gwinnett coun
ty, Ga., the 19th of August, 1897. She
lived on earth 28 years and three
months. She was reared by pious pa
rents, and as a result of her early train
ing she was converted in early life and
joined the Baptist church when 14
years old. At Osburn’s Hill, Towns
county at 5 years old she was seized
with rheumatism and for several years
she was confined to bed. She was a
great sufferer but never murmured*
For years before her death she had
gown on crutches. She was a most
industrious girl. She would go on her
crutches and pick 126 pounds of cot
ton per day. It was the writer’s pleas
ure to know “Sallie” for the past few
years; was her teacher in Sunday
school. She loved the Sunday school
and was always present with a perfect
lesson and with a sweet smile and a
cherry “Good morning.” She ardent
ly loved the church to which she be
longed. Her parents preceded her to
heaven several years ago. For four
teen years she lived in the enjoyment
of religion, and as to her religious ex
perience she was always cheerful and
hopeful. She lived very close to God
hence her faith was very strong and
her peace abiding. She suffered a
great deal the whole of her life, but
she did not her lot uor com
plain at her afflictions. We are so
glad that we can say she was ready
and prepared. She was sick but a few
days before her death, until the
angel relieved her soul from this earth
ly prison of suffering and death to live
with God and the angels on the happy,
golden shore, where the faithful part
no more. She has laid down her crutch
es never to take them up, but shall
walk the golden streets a perfect be
ing in tlie kingdom of our God. While
the homes of her two sisters and bro
thers is darkened and hearts bereaved
by her death, yet her loved ones do not
mourn as those that have no hope, but
expect to meet her again. “Sallie” was
loved by all who knew Farewell t
sweet Christian friend, but not for
ever !
Reverend Sargent preached her
funeral at Level Creek church, after
which her remains were laid to rest in
the beautiful cemetery of the same
name.
We tender our heartfelt sympathy to
the brother and two bereaved sisters

THE FAIR
TO CONTINUE TILL
SATURDAY.
tin account of the inclement
weather of the first of the week,
the Gwinnett County Fair will
continue until Saturday in order
to give everybody a chance to view
the handsome displays.
The exhibits are pronounced by
all who see them to be better than
the display at the Exposition
which gave Gwinnett the SSOO
cash prize.
It affords Thk News much
| pleasure to announce the complete
success of this undertaking, and
we feel more than doubly repaid
in raising the handsome fund for
the premium list.
Our Fair is attracting much at
tention, and the Constitution and
Journal both have special staff
correspondents on the ground,
sketching scenes and incidents for
publication in their papers.
The News, in view of the low
price of cotton will continue to
be sent broadcast at the remarka
