In this neck cf the woods it is
the opinion that the platform
upon which Allen 1). Candler
will make his race for Governor
will suit not only the farmers
of Georgia but a majority of
the voters of the State,
That was a very thoughtless
or indifferent individual who
tied his mule to one of the
young shade trees at the Bapt¬
ist church Monday night. The
animal gnawed the tree fear¬
fully and it will very likely die.
It is hoped that the act may
not be repeated.
