The saddest commentary up¬
on our county a ■’ town, that
we have any knov. • dge of, is
our county jail. In its present
condition it is utterly worthless
and its appearance is most un

you can. Advertising pays and
the tongue is a great advertiser.
You can help your town won¬
derfully by heeding this injunc

tur we really have one of the
very best towns in Georgia.
It Is Now.
Said that Hon. T. E. W. is
not only sick but angry also
He is displeased from all ac¬
counts, with Marion Butler, of
N. C., the man to whom he is
indebted for his first and last
notification letter. Mr. Wat¬
son is said to be displaying this
ill temper openly and makes no
secret of the fact that he has
scores to settle with Mr. Butler.
All this family trouble is due to
political deals and fusion prop
ositions, iu which populist lead
ers engaged without confering
-^iLh Mr. Watson, knowing at
t }j e i irne that he opposed such
deals.
The muddle actually takes
in itg scope> p eed) Mr. Watson’s
bosom friend, and in fact, the
situation is critical all around.

So far as the public under¬

Buck and some of the populist
leaders to take Hou. W. L.
Peek, populist nominee for Con¬
gress. out of the way and con¬
centrate the forces of the two
p ar ti eg j u an effort to elect
Hendrix, the republican eandi
date failed. ColPeek absolute
]y refused to be pulled down
an( j avows that he is in the race
to slay until the last ballot is
counted. Our worthy fellow
citizen carries in mind, no doubt,
instances in the past when lie
was urged, for patriotic reas¬
ons, to yield possible personal
political preferment to other
individuals and the memory is
enough for him. If reports are
true Col. Peek has really been
treated badly by his own people.

We could not pass the oppor¬
tunity to suggest to the new
general assembly that the peo¬
ple of the Stone Mountain Cir¬
cuit will be mighty well pleased
to have Judge Candler and So
'icitor Kimsey for four years
more. These gentlemen have
given perfect satisfaction since
their induction into their res¬
pective positions, and it is the
almost universal opinion that
it would be a calamity to the
circuit to remove them now.
Spalding county has added a
new page to her record. A
black brute was lynched and

by a mob of infuriated citizens,
last Thursday, within two miles
of Griffin. The fiend assaulted
a young lady 7 miles from Grif¬
fin. When captured he was
carried into the presence of the
youug lady. She identified
him—he acknowledged his guilt
and the mob did the rest. All
this occurred Thursday morning

The populist state executive
