There has teen no new cases of
flit in town this week. Those who
have been sick with it are now im¬
proving, and those who are not al¬
ready out are expected to be able to
be out in a short time.
School at Shoal Creek has been
suspended on account of flu, and
will not be opened again until
some time during the summer. Flu
has been raging there for the past
two weeks.’
W. B. Smith, of Mossy Creek,
died last week, after a few days’
illness with the flu. Mr. Smith
was well known in the county and
has been doing carpenter work in
Cleveland during the winter.
Born to Mr. and Mrs. Frank
McEfee Monday night, a daughter.
Clinton Faulkner, who under¬
went an operation at Downey’s
hospital, Gainesville, has sufficient¬
ly recovered to be again at home.
Those selected to prepare a list
of voters for the coming primary
met in the court house this week
and have completed their work.
Those selected to do this work were
L. G. Ash, W. J. Presley and W.
G. Allen. We have not learned
the exact number of voters there
are in the county, but we are told
it is near 1,200.
The busiest men we know of for
the past few weeks are our worthy
physicians, who have been .ushing
day and night in their endeavors
to keep up with their calls.
Telford & Ken inter are prepar¬
ing to build a warehouse on, the
lot adjoining their store.
Mrs. Sarah L, Jackson, one of
Shoal Creek’s most highly respec¬
ted ladies, died at her hhme lakt
week from flu-pneumonia. She
had many friends who will miss
her much.
It is pleasing to note thut many
farmers have profitted by holding
their cotton untill it has reached a
better price, and we frequently
note that mention is made of the
crease the farmer lias derived from
his sales, Why is it nothing is
said about how much the specula¬
tor has made from holding the flee¬
cy staple? All the fanners would
like to know how much they have
made, but there is nobody to tell
them. Mr. Farmer, the capitalist
is taking care of you, all right, and
and keeping you just where he
wants you, despite all the laws
framed to the contrary.
We give herewith the result of
Habersham county primary:

The fellow that inveneed that
saying about the “flowing bowl”
evidently wasn’t referring to the
sugar bowl.
That Missouri hen said to have
been insured by her owner for

cackle.
As peaceful as Cleveland boasts
of being, there are times wbeu a
wild man is to be found in her

Millions Meed
Pepte-Mangan
In Many Homes Better Health
Is Simply a Matter of
• Better Blood
Pepto-Mangan Improves Blood
Composed of Approved
Blood-Making Elements—
Put Up in Liquid and
Tablet Form
Are you tired and weak and
“blue?” Do you say to yourself,
“What’s the use of living? What
do I get out of life, dragging thru
this drab existence in this unhappy
way?”
You don’t feel well, and you
don’t know why you have so little
energy to do anything, and you
get all tired out before it is done.
There are millions in busy America
that have sudh feelings now and
then, and they are to be pitied. But
there is helP. Unless some serious
malady is at the bottom of their
trouble, a few weeks of Pepto
Mungun will work a wonderful
change. Pepto-Mangau puts new
vigor into the blood, and the blood
is the life fluid. With plenty of
rich, red blood coursing through
one’s body one is pretty likely
to feel good and vigorous and be
strong and look hearty.
Go to your druggist and ask for
“Gude’s Pepto-Mangan.” Be sure
to say “Gude^a,” If “Gude’s” is
not on the packade it is not Pepto
Mangan, It is put up in both
liquid and tdblet form. Tell the
druggist which you prefer. There
is no difference in medicinal value.

What It Coat Him
The law requires candidates for
office to file a report of expendi¬
tures. A patriot of Missouri ran
for office and turned in the follow¬
ing absolutely truthful report
what it cost him to get elected.
“Lost, 1,349 hours’ sleep think¬
ing about the election. Lost two
front teeth ^nd a lot of hair in a
personal encounter with an oppon¬
ent. Donated one beef, four shouts
and five sheep to country barbe¬
cues. Gave away two pairB of
suspenders, four calico dresses and
I5.00 iu cash. Kissed 1 s6 babies.
Put up four stoves. Kindled four
: teen firas. Walked 4.976
i Shook hands with 9,50s people.
: Told 10,101 lies and talked enough
; to make in print 1,000 volumes.
Attended sixteen revivals and
contributed $50.00 to foreign mis¬
sions. Made love to nine widows,
five grass, fonr sod. Hugged 49
old maids. Got dog-bit thirty
nine times and was elected by 353
majority,”—Ex.

THE SCHOOLS AND ROADS
White County, Ga., is ideal as to
climate, beutiful landscape and fer¬
tility of soil, but she is in the rear
regnrding roads and schools. How¬
ever, there are a few exceptions.
Cleveland and Nacoochee schools
reflect credit to the county, and the
citizens of these two communities
deserve credit for the manner in
which they pnllecf together to make
these schools a success, They are
a success. *
White Creek militia district has
two public schools, with approxi
j mately 150 children of school age.
whicli could have consolidated at
6ome central point and had an ideal
long-term school, similar to the two
above mentioned.
We did our very best to make
this proposed consolidated school a
reality at the polls on February 2i
for which 1 have no apology to
make! to any one, but they voted us
down, and the school is doomed
forever so far as I can see now.
As to the public roads, there is a
lot of room for imyrovement. We
have muddy roads during the win¬
ter months, and perhaps always
will have, but we can put the roads
on a better grade, thereby cutting
out the bad hills. Put the roads
around the hills and make the horse
laugh.
Let’s install the convict system.
We have the convicts, and why
not work them on the roads? If
the convict system was not good
for Habersham county roads and
citizens, surely they would abolish
the system,
J, A. Robejtson. present ordin¬
ary of Hubershom county, was re¬
nominated February 25 last bv a
nice majority, whtch signified that
the people are as well pleased with
the system, as that official has j
charge of the roads, of which they j
are well aware.
Inasmuch as the ordinary of
White county is vitally connected
with the road problem, being one
of the commissioners, we should
inquire of him, as well as all the
aspirants to that office, how they
stand on this important question.
Let’s demand of each of them thefi
plalform and then vote our con vie
victions.
Yours for progress, regardless of
your opinion of me.
Respectfully,
JONH K. KENIMER.

DON'T GET EXCITED
We trust Cleveland, citizens
will not allow themselves to be¬
lieve reports being printed in so¬
me daily papers to the effect th¬
at anarchy is on the increase in
this country as a result of this
nation,s deportation of a few of
them to Russia for there is noth¬
ing to fear in fact if history is co¬
rrect this plan will have a good
eftect all one need to do is to
remember the ha,ymarket riot in
Chicago and the hanging of »eve
ral anarchists mixed up in the cr¬
ime.
'Plie anarchist* of Chicago had
a strong organization and even
printed thire own newspaper.
Then came the throwing of a bo¬
mb that killed several policeman'
and the (arrestand conviction of
the criminals the governor was
urged to reprivo those sentenced
to death on the ground that th«
rc hanging would invoke still <rr
eater outbreaks hut he refused
and the hangings took place ther
e were no further outbreaks and
anarchy made no headway after
that.
Threats did not materialize and
»*™neUuier instead of
wilder deporting anarchists to li
ussia is going to serve as a lastiug
lesson the notice t«. the world
that we can and will send out of
this country those who try to ov¬
erthrow the goverment will be
heeded by many there will lie no
reaction against the carrying ont
of the plans to deport all who seek
to bring about a revolution in
this country let the good work
go »iirht and give it your sanction
