Yours truly, _ Maine Tourist, Savannah, Feb. 24. : Mr. T. W, Vickery’s announce ment appears this week, This is the first time Mr. Vickery has asked any favors of the people of Charl ton county and he should receive the heaity support of the people at the primary, Heis eminently quali fied to fill the office, having worked with the collector at various times. He s strictly honest, sober and pains-taking, and we believe he would take a nride in doing his very best. i The indications are that there will be strong apposition to the the bor ing of an artesian weil in Folkston this year and*we greatly fear that the fate of last year wi'l still hang over us. Experiments are now De inz made for deeper'water, Mr. W. L. Ocain has driven seventy feet of piping but he meets with first one obstacle and another. Dr. 0 Wright has spent several dollars in an-effort to get pelow the surface water, but with .fimwr success, - We continually heat some one say, “Oh, I am going to have my pump put down sevenly five or one hundred feet,”” which, they'say will do sway with the necessity for. an artesian well, claiming that it will make taxes too high toput in an ar tesian well and pipe the, town. ' Now, lets reason ,a little. * We all want better water we all admit that it isneeded.. The past year’s ex perience provest that. Those who are opposing artesiar water on ac count of high taxes arc the very ones who are’ figuring on better water for themselves, and, judging by Dr. Wright’s and Mr. Qctain’s experience they can safely’ figure on an expenditure fa: greater than ‘the boring of an artesian ‘well would cost in increased taxes for a - ber of yoars,’and then his neighbor| weuld still be using surface water. ’E'f:ff?fmunev thz‘zt xsi bcmg \fi'gt’:red_ On oW to put pitcher pumps to a Edept&?fiéfficieht tq,getygu@(\ '»Wat‘-jj kWag-édflnwgt_ratgdfivit; voulc be suf y:eg_igt‘fidr;an artesian it that would fa pislg'ev,g&réggidgu Q) \3“61}:53:011 With wholesome water, 4 if, for - siaage, the deepening of the pumps for a time how long will. | t remain good?

Lawton Walker as a candidate for Solicilor’ General of the Brunswick Circuit. Lawton lWalker is not only well known 1n South Georgia, but throughout the state, having served three terms as representative in the legislature for Pierce County and also three terms as state senator, Mr. Walker was born at Patterson, Pierce County, taught school when a young man, and was admitted to the bar in 1892 and has since practiced law at Black shear.

Our ac quaintance with Mr. Walker, to gether with the unanimous endorse ment and uastinted praise he re ceives from a}l who know him, would make us feel that he is the right man to—, and will succeed Hon.

Webster’s first speech was made at home with h's father tor an au dience. Of his education in youth here are his words; you may com i S mit them: ‘“My opportunities in ‘youth for acquniring an education were limited, butl had the good fortune of being well supplied with useful and attractive books and these gave me my success iu life.” A very distinguished man said, ““Tell me the books a boy reads in the home and I will tell you of his character..” Suppose the boy had not read any books what could he say? The great men took care in lay ing the steps in ihe ladders by which they reached glory and fame. Shall I tell you the name of these steps? “Moments” snatched here and there as they found them and’ they were always looking. The question now is: will the young reader do likewise or will he wait?
