A BLIND TIGER RAIDED.
For some time past it hns
been reported that certain par
ties would diive their wagons
just outside of town and dis
pense “blind tiger corn"’ to all
who chanced to apply. Those
engaged in the {radio seemed to
think that just so they were out
side of the incorporation limits
they had the right to deal out
the firey liquid as they pleased.
This had been going on until
the people on that side of town
began to make complaint and
last Saturday! night Marshal
Robinson armed himself with a
state warrant and made a raid
and arrested A. T. Patrick and
Oscar Burell, both of whom
gave bond in the sum of one

was very favorably impressed
with Eawreiicevillo and found
a Situ on the Maekeii lot. that
suited him exactly, and in view
of the fact that wo have supe
rior tailroad faculties to any
other town in North Georgia il
is highly probable that he will
locate lu.re. Tlie-factory to be
erected will be a two story brick
Klxioti feet, with twenty differ
ent machines which will turn
„ut handles, spokes, hubs, sash,
doors, blinds and all kinds of

Sheriff Haslett went, to Bu
ford today armed with a war
rant. for Esquire W. W. Wilson.
The warrant was sworn out yes
terday by W. C. Vandergriff,
marshal of the town of Buford,
charging Wilson with libel. He
alleges that the following libel
ous language appeared in the
Alliance Plow Boy, of which
Mr. Wilson i editor, and which
lie says had reference to him:
“It is very aggravating, not
to say humiliating, for a citi
zen of a small city, who pays
some fifteen dollars taxes, to lie
spoken of in a derogatory man
ner by an officer, who has been
publicly charged with being ‘a
drunken horse thief, a common
cheat and swindler, a liar and a
scoundrel.’ ”
FINE PLANTING SEASON.
Last, week was an exception
ally fine week for farm work,
and the farmers of this county
put in good time. It was the
first week of good working
weather we have had since Feb
ruary. Everything was favor
able for planting. The ground
was in good condition, the days,
bright itnd balmy, and vegeta
tion waked up from its long
sleep.
A very large cotton crop is
being planted; at least we judge
so from the amount of guano
that is going to the country,
aud that is the beat index of
the area planted.

APPLYING FOR A PARDON.
J. H. Wilson of Buford, who
\\|as convicted of conspiracy in
tIW I'uited States court, is ap
plying to the President for a
pardon, with good prospects of
success.
Two strong petitions fiom
this county have been sent on
to Washington, and have been
presented to the President by
Hon. Carter Tate, our Repre
sentalive in Congress. Mr, Tate
will take au active interest in
pushing the application.
Such papers go slowly, as
they nre subject to the red tape
rule in nil the departments of
governments. The usual course,
when a petition for pardon is
presented, is to refer it to the
Attorney General’s office. In
this office it will be referred to
Judge Newman and District
Attorney Rucker, who tried the
case, and its success depends
lurgely upon the recommenda
tion that, it receives at the
hands of the officers of the
court. The papers are then re
turned to the Attorney Gener
al's office, where final action is
taken. The Attorney General
puts his endorsement ou them,
aud the President is usually
controlled I»y this recommenck-
\V r o have reason to believe
that the officers in Atlanta will
make a fuvorahle report on the
application.
Although Wilson was sen
tenced last January, he is still
in Atlanta, the court very kind
ly allowing him to remain here,
in of his efforts to get re
leased .

ODD FELLOW’S CELE
BRATION. |
A OAT. A DAY. —FINK SPEECHES,-
GOOl) music, and a big
DINNER.
The Odd Fellows’ celebratio
held last Saturday at the earn
ground, was a great occasion,
a lovely day, a big crowd, fin
speeches, good music, aud la
but '>y no means least, a sum]
tuous dinner spread in regult.
picnic style beneath the gini
oaks of the forest, mean" sui •
cess.
The regular day for the Odd
Fellows’ annual reunion tocom
memorate their 78th birthday
in America was the 2fHh of
April, but for various reasons
the lodges decided that as Mon
day was not a suitable day for
occasions like that they wouhl,
by permission of the Noble
Grand of the State, hold their
celebration on Saturday, and
hence the reason why the birth
day of the order was commemo
rated two days previous.
At 10:40 o’clock the various
lodges marched into the stand
led by the marshal of the dny
Mr. W. S. Mitchell am! then
the large number of people, who
were all around the grounds,
were soon summonsed together
by the inspiring notes of the
Lawrenceville Brass Band which
furnished music for the occa
sion.
Mr. L. M. Brand called the
assemblage to order and an
nounced that the exercises
would begin by singing the
opening ode, and suggested that
the usual sign be omitted.
The welcome address was de
livered by Col. N. L. Hutchii s
Jr. who did himself much cred
it in a speech of fifteen minutes,
which was both interesting and
appropriate and elected for him
many complimentary expres
sions from those who heard
him.
He was followed by Co'. U
M. Mitchell, the ora to" »' i'
day, who delivered one of tin
most interesting speeches we
over heard upon that subject.
Col. Mitchell is a calm and
forceful speaker, who handles
his subject like a master and
holds his crowd by hits magnet
ic oratory. His entire speech
was- au instructive presentation
of the history of the order from
its earliest organization to the
present lime. Ho said that He'
early history of Odd Fellowship
was in mystery—that it is not
exactly known when it wn«fir.-t
organized. That a large until-'
bor of labor organizations
sprang up all over Loudon ami
filially they were all united and
called themselves Odd Fellows.
1818 a number of lodges seeeo.l
ed and formed themselves into
what they called the Manches
ter Union, which is today eight
hundred thousand strong. On
Anril 26U> 1811) the Indep r.-
dent Order of Odd Fellows vns
organized in Boston by Thus.
Wildy and four others. Since
that time the Independent (> '-
der has grown mighty aud num
bers its members by the thous
ands iu every civilized country
of the world. That tl o O d
Fellows, counting the members
of the Manchester Union, has
more members today than any
other order on earth That tin
total relief fund in America i x
pemh'd in 1895 was $8,400,012.-
48. That during the seventy
eight years of its existence tho
order had expended eighty mil
lion of dollars in the alleviation
of distress. And outside the
church of God, the speaker
thought the Odd Fellows were
doiug more good than any other
organization in existence.
But our space forbids us to
attempt a synopsis of his speech.
After the conclusion of Col.
Mitchell’s address one hour’s
recess was takeu for dinner and
this constituted an important
part of the program ami a part
too that was enjpyed by every
body.
After diuuer was over and the
people had re-asseuibled at the
stand they were entertained by
a number of speeches - during
the afternoon, notable among
which wero those delivered by
Messrs. H. 11. Holland from
Buford, A. M. Baxter, of Sti
wane?, Jesse S. Bate, of Oail,
and Calvin Johnson, of Dacula
The question of where the
next anniversary would be h Id
was discussed but finally refer

it.ined later.

THE PERRY TRIAL
'l’lie special session of DeKalb
Superior court meets today. It
was called to try the Flanagan
and Perry cases, both of which
have excited a great deal of
feeling, cofoment and prejudice
in DeKalb county. It is now
understood that the Flanagan
case will not be tried on ac
count of the sickness of Col,
Glenn.
It is not known whether Perry
will be triad orjnot. His coun
sel are not disposed to try now
if it can be avoided, on account
of the excited stnte of the pub
lic mind.
The bill of ind ictmeot will
have to be found this week and
the case will be called.
If forced to trial, the defence
will show a much stronger case
than the public suppose, as his
side of the case has not been
discussed in the newspapers.

WRUES OF A CONFEDERATE AS
SOCIATION,
Rceord, Oa. Apr. 24, ‘97.
Editor Herald: I most
heartily endorse the suggestion
in the last issue of your paper
for a meeting of the ex-Confed
erates of Gwinnett, for the pur
pose of forming an association
of the survivors of the lost
cause who reside m Gwinnett.
Let them meet without regard
to_ their religious creeds, or po
litical views; both great and
small, rich and poor, on a per
fectly ecpial footing, none the
peer of the other, all heroes as
they are, and form an associa
tion with a permanent organi
zation, which shall continue
until all shall have passed over
the river and joined tltf great
Confederate host on tin- other
side. Such an organization
would greatly promote the hap
piness and strengthen the ten
der eomradship of the past.
Let there be a small member
ship fee, or annual dues, in or
der that a neat sum may be ac
cumulated to relieve the dis
tl'(>ssed or very poor, but worthy,
if any there be who have been
bereft of property, kindred and
friends, and to give any such a
decent and Christian burial.
If such an organization ex
isted it ought, through proper
committees for the purpose, to
bury or assist in burying every
old Confederate in the county
from this date forward, who
answers the long roll call of
the Master, and falls into the
arms of the Great Reaper.
It would indeed be a great
comfort and consolation to
these old soldiers, while march
ing down the shady incline .of
life, to know that the tender
hands and warm, bravo hearts
of comrades who suffered
and bled with them would with
their own hands consign their
frail ami worn bodies to mother
earth, and with devout, prayers
commend their precious souls
to God who gave them
I may be compelled to be out
of the county at the time sug
get ted for the meeting, and
thereby be deprived of the pleas
ure of meeting my old comrades,
but. I shall gladly become a
member of the association, if
one is organized.
I trust that every survivor in
our grand old county, no matter
to what command lie may have
belonged, will meet at Law
nmceville at the time suggested
and cheerfully lend his in
fluence in making the organiza
tion a success.
Yours truly,
W.T. Smith.

IS THE FRUIT KILLED?
That is a question in which
our people are deeply interested
and we have taken some (Sains
to ascertain the facts.
Meeting a party of farmers
last Saturday we asked the
question . The reply of one was
that the peaches are all killed
or will fall off the trees it being
so badly injured. The next one
said he thought there was some
left, while third replied that
there was plenty of fruit left to
give us a good crop.
Apples are not injured but
the great danger was to the
peaches. We haven’t had a
good peach crop for two years
and another failure wou'd be a
misfortune.
Perhaps this difference of
opinions arries from the fact
that the men caine from differ
ent localities. It is well known
that are sbme places so low and
damp that they never ‘.‘hit’’ ns
the expression goes.
Prom our observation and the
best information we can get,
there is an abundance of sound
fruit yet on the trees to insure
a large crop, whether they have
been affected by the.cold so as
to drop off it is impossible yet
to tell but they are seldom all
injured so young.
