Editor ('lark Howell will be n can

district and latterly by bis friends
throughout the State.
7)r. E G Broughton, a noted Baptist
minister of Vllanta. created a sensa¬
tion in that city by demanding lie*
impeachment of Mayor Woodward,
in his sermon Sunday nielit. The
arraignment of the Mayor was very
severe and the council is now inves¬
tigating the charges. The position
taken by the minister as official rec¬
tifier is a new one but later develop¬
ments would indicate that lie under¬
stands the business, thnrongnly.
The, Marietta Journal speaks this
wise truth: “Industry is the great
antidote against had feeling, comm
illness, discontentment and adversi¬
ty. Poverty usually grinds the hard¬
est outlie indolent, simply bocans.
that indolence violates all laws of
prosperity, An industrious people
is a contented people, and a eontent
ed pfcople means hnppv, prosperous
peoph*. A pretty good way to ruin
hoys is io allow them to act the gen¬
tleman and spend their time in idle¬
ness; while the safety-valve of boys
becoming good, true men, is to keep
the boys busy at work.”

Eggs and Fritters.
The Madison Advertiser prints a
lengthy explanation eoneerning tlie
whys and wherefores of the effect of
the cry, “Three fried eggs and a frit¬
ter for a quarter,” upon tlie young
men of Conyers. The explanation
as given by the Advertiser is very
fair and is prefaced as follows: “And.
we want it understood beforehand,
that it is not our intention to “throw
oft” at all on the p ogressive little
city of Conyers. There is tin city in
the State that has a more refined,
cultured or moral sec of citizens than
Conyers. Toe cjitlte population are
