IIa\ ing sold niy interest in the
Cleveland Courier, Press, good
will, etc., to Mr. Alex. Davidson,
ReV. C. W. Curry having leased
Mr. John Martin’s interest, it is
with pleasure that I turn over to
these gentlemen the responsi¬
bility of furnishing White County
with a Newspaper, Fearing that
I might follow my predecessors in
t he newspaper business, that is as
some have said, “break,” I
thought best to sell my interest in
tlie same to those who were more
experienced in the paper business,
and who were more able to stand
it, should tlie people of White see
fit to let them break.
Thanking my friends for their
support while and during tlie time
I have been connected with the
paper, and assuring them that the
l at per will now be better than, it
has been for some time previous,
1 trust that the people of White
County will give the paper their
loyal support, and that all the
public officers of the county will,
when opportunity presents for ad¬
vertising, not forget that we have
a county newspaper, and that the
gentlemen who are running it, like
the balance of us, have to live.
Again thanking the previous sup¬
porters of the Cleveland Courier
for their kindnesses, I am,
Yours Very Respectfully,
G. S. Kyti.k.

Reports from all over the state
; show that the vote cast in pri¬
mary Tuesday was vary light.
1 However small it was, in Oct.
you may expect old Georgia to
roll up a good majority for the
Democrats.
Atlantic is now thinking of
calling a convention to see as
to why Uncle Lon Livingston
did not have her in the line of
j the great eclipse. No doubt our
Uncle Lou would have used his
influence for the Gate City had
j he known her people were anx¬
ious to he in the path of the
eclipse. This convention would
very well follow the recent ca¬
nine show.
A Miners Convention.
One of the most inter¬
esting conventions of the year
will he held in Milwaukee, Wis.
June, 1$. when the men who
dig the many metals from Moth¬
er Earth assemble to exchange
ideas and perfect plans by which
the mineral interests of the coun¬
try will he more fully developed.
