While Mr. F. G. Jones,of Cleve¬
land, was down attending the com¬
mencement of the N. G. A. Col¬
lege last week, the institution
which shelters him while he was
studying his lessons for a long time
up into 1895, told us many inter¬
esting things about Muscle Shoals,
in Alabama, where he has spent
quite a while during the past few
months on business. By the way,
Mr. Jones is a candidate for the
state senate this time, composing
the counties of White, Lumpkin
Dawson, being White’s time to
name the candidate, although all
three of the counties will be bene
fitted if a wide awake, public
spirited man of business qualifica¬
tions is selected for senator. Our
friend was borned and raised in
Lumpkin county. We have known
him all hit life and we are confi¬
dent that Frank comes up to these
requirements. If we did not be
Siewe it we would say so.—Dah

Owing to the very hard rains
last week, the Editor failed to get
off to Cleveland last Friday, lie
is going anyhow some time soon,
not to a press meeting there, but to
see the country and the town and
the editor of the Cleveland paper,
Jim Davidson.—Alpharetta Free
Press.
We were indeed sorry to miss
that trip to Cleveland on June Jnd,
but the terriflic rains completely up
set us. We made the trip to
Gainesville lust December during a
rainy time and we decided then
that we would never try it again.
The question of having our next
meeting is in the hands of the exe¬
cutive committee of the association
and they will make announcements
in due time.—Winder News.

In “The British and American

with keen humor as well as illumi¬

between the British and American
press.
Prof. Leacock says, the only
paper a man really enjoys and ap¬
preciates to the fullest is ttie news¬
paper of his own town. Prof.

Our good friend, Ernest Camp.
Editor of Che Walton Tribune.
Monroe, Ga.. accompanied by his
good wife, son, Ernest, Jr., and
smaller son and daughter, surprised
us with a very pleasant call last
Friday. Mr. Camp is held in the
highest esteem by all the news¬
papermen In Georgia. He is tst
Vice-President of the GeorgiaPrtls
Association and will be elected
president at the 1923 meeting. He
is President of the Eighth District
Press Association and has made a
splendid record in organizing that
district. His thriving town, Mon¬
roe, gave the Georgia Press Ass,
one of the best times they have
had, and ErnestCamp deserves that
credit.
While here Editor Camp and
family viewed our mountain range
from the Mountain View Terrace
Resort and told us what wonder¬
ful scenic grandeur we are so lucky
to possess. From Cleveland they
they motored through the famous
Nacoochee Valley by Clerkesville
to Tallulah Falls and Clayton.
We were quite sorry that the
time of Editor Camp and family
was so limited that could not be
with us longer and ascend Yonah,
but we trust they will return
again when they will have more
time witli us.
You will find the announcement
of Judge J. B, Jones for re-election
in this issue. Judge Jones has
made a splendid impression on the
public and his many friends will
make it hot for his opponents.
Col. H. II. Perry, of Gaines¬
ville, has announced for Judge of
this circuit. Col. Perry is well
known in this county as he has
made a splendid record as a jurist
and is quite capable for judge.
Col. A. H. Henderson, Jr., an
nouncement for the Senate appears
in this issue of our paper. Col.
Henderson will not be able to see
very many of the people for some
time os he will be engaged at his
duties in the Legislature. Col
Hetj.derson’s experience ex¬
perience in the legislature makes
him better fitted for the Senate.
Soon after it was announced that
the road from Blairsville would be
built across the Blue Ridge at
Frogtown Gap, Mr. Henley Wim¬
py was notified to extend his keep
up roads to the Jack Ash place on
this proposed route. But since the
tourists, together with candidates
and others interested in the Nation¬
al Highway running by Cleveland
and Gainesville, Mr. Wimpy has
been notified to suspend repair
work on or towards Frogtown Gap
until further notice, causing us to
believe that there will be no high¬
way built across the Blue Ridge to
or by way of Dnhlonega unless the
government turns all its lands into
a park and builds a road across the
mountain from Daldonega to get to
it. And such a road may be built
from some other point. You can’t
tell. It’s true that Engineer Neel
said the state highway would be
built through Frogtown Gap, but
things don't iook favorable for this,
if all reports are true. And if Mr.
Neel spoke without authority he
should jhuve kept Jiis lips closed.—
Dahlonega Nuggett.
Congressman Thos, M. Bell has
more friends than any man in the

lion. Clifford Walker has nn

destruction of the Constitutional
Limitation on new taxes and the
suppression of the Clayt Robson
Kimbali House domination of the
State.
Mr. Walker is well known in
White County and has a number
of loyal supporters who will stand
by him as in the last election.
