House Passes Hill To Abolish
Posting Of Marriage Bans
Amendment to the Defeated
Measure Calls for Affidavits
and Oath
After having killed the marriage
license bill last week the house of
representatives on Monday reversed
itself and passed the measure by a
vote of 115 to 28, but only after an
amendment had been adopted elim¬
inating certain objections made by
its opponents.
Under the present law applica¬
tions for marriage licenses must be
posted for five days in the ordi¬
nary's office. Under the terms of
the bill passed Monday, all applica¬
tions must be made under oath, the
applicant giving information as to
ancestry and previous marriage, if
any. The application must be ac¬
companied by affidavits from two
disinterested parties as to the good
character of the applicant, and the
truth of their statements.
In the case of persons under 21
the ordinary must publish notice of
application for five days, but in
the case of persons over 21 the
license may be issued without post¬
ing, if the ordinary is satisfied
with the statement of the applicant
and the affidavit.
The bill already having passed
the senate, it goes back to that
body for concurrence in the house
amendment.
Gold Mining Under Way
Near Flowery Branch
_____
’Gold mining operations _______ on the
farm of Mr. Sharp Smith, three
miles from Flowery Branch in this
county, are exciting considerable
interest in this section. The opera¬
tions are being conducted under
the direction of Mr. J. H. Dawson,
of Tampa, Fla., who has secured a
six months’ option on two hundred
acres of the farm of Mr. Smith.
Mr. Smith, who is a prospector
of no mean repute, has been find¬
ing gold on his farm for several
years, but it was only recently that
he found it in such quantities on a
creek near his home that others be¬
came interested.
Mr. Dawson, who formerly
mined successfully In Colorado, be¬
came interested in the farm, and
after investigation obtained the
option. About a dozen men have
been employed, and several shafts
have bten sunk on the farm, some
ore being discovered in which the
yellow metal can be seen. Oper¬
ations have been temporarily halt¬
ed pending an assay of the metal
to determine its value. Mr. Daw¬
son has gone to Tampa to confei
with friends who are financially
interested, and will return in about
ten days to resume work in the
mine.
If the assay shows the ore to be
rich in metal, it is understood tiiai
Mr. Dawson plans extensive oper¬
ations during the next six months,
with the installation of up-to-date
machinery and the empioyine.nt ol
many men.
Mr. Smith is of the opinion that
there is a rich vein of metal in the
vicinity of the place where the
mining is_ being done, from the fact
that he has discovered several nug¬
gets of considerable size in close
proximity in months past.—Gaines¬
ville News.

This is a hot time to get, up con¬
fusion. A house divided in itself
will soon come to pieces.
Messrs II. D. Wiley, Frank
Jones, J. Will Thurmond and
others are now much interested in
the development of the soapstone
quarry on the old E, II. Castle
berry place. The gold belt is
bound on the northwest by numer¬
ous beds of soapstone and on the
southeast by deposits of asbestos.
We have enough soapstone to keep
our railroad alive for some time
and the apple industry will be a
great help, besides we have plenty
of building stone for foundation
work. Good highways are alright
but we ajso.. need to keep our rail
road it is the way of hauling
bulky freight. It used to be said
that railroads never died but in
these latter days they sometimes
junk them. The G. & N. W.
railroad has been a greot help to
north Georgia and it will continue
to be useful if we give it an attrac¬
tive arid paying business.
