Subscription: One Dollar per Year Payable in Advance THE GEORGIA FREE LANCE (By ELI B. HUBBARD) We have read a copy of the first issue of the Georgia Free Lance, a publication edited and owned by Hon. Thomas W. Hardwick at Dublin. We read this copy with interest, and from the several articles therein we believe that if the paper is made a success that it will operate as a restraint upon so much of playing politics by the profession al politicans of the State.

In the Court of Commissioners of Roads and Revenues of Wilkinson County, Georgia, September Term, 1925. Whereas, It appearing to the Board of Commissioners of Roads and Rev enues of Wilkinson County that the expenses of operating said County, therein requires a levy of Twenty five and No. 100 on the Thousand Dol lars of the taxable property of said county for the year 1925; it is, there fore, Ordered, That Twenty-five Dollars on the Thousand of each One Thous of 1925 be and the same is hereby and Dollars worth of the taxable property of said County as per digest levied, and the Tax Collector of said County is hereby ordered to collect the same for the following purposes, to-wit: ITEM 1.

To pay jurors a per diem compen- 1 sation,. three cents (3 cents) on the some o f the public officials cf the State were Klans men was because they wanted the Klan vote. We believe that a man should be a man. If he can not be a man he should wear a dress, and when we see some so called men playing on both sides of any question then we say that they ought to lay aside their trousers and adorn their form with a dress. There was a time we took issues with the edi tor of the Free Lance, and think that he was wrong then and still think so, but we are frank enough to give any one credit for that which they are entitled to, and although we differed with him in the past, and may perhaps differ with him in the future, we say that he is right when he criticises any man for being two sided and without any convictions of his own. With the reservation of differing with the edi tor of the Free Lance on public questions and pub lic men, we wish for him a great success jn the operation of his paper. THREE SPLENDID OFFICE HOLDERS Here’s McLendon, Wright and Speer, the only three public officals of Georgia who have never been critized. It is strange, bnt yet it is true. We never thought of it, however, until we read it in the Free Lance. . One Hundred Dollars. ITEM 7.
