ASBESTOS BUZZING
Just from the Mountains.
An airplane passed over on Sun¬
day and Monday. 'There, are not
many people going that way these
times.
'The bean beetles and tbeColora
<lo p ituto bugs are now on hand
again. After such a warm winter
the nsects will be numerous. Srisli
potatoes should be planted far from
the house so the Bob White can
make three meals a day on the po
tatoe beetles.
Some report that, business is pick¬
ing up gradually.
Mr. ]. IE R. Barrett passed this
way recently.
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Freeman
spent part of Sunday with Mr.and
Mrs. ]. H. Brown, who lots been
feeble.
Mrs. Do: a Edmondson spent
Tuesday with Mr. Will Blalock,
who has been very feeble but is
now on gaining ground.
Mr. and Mrs. lloyt Elliott dined
with their parents last Sunday.
Miss Harriet McGee made a busi¬
ness trip to Cleveland one day last
week.
Some of our people had straw¬
berry for dinner last Sunday.
They use to sing a little song about
strawberries and cream, which
made you scream.
Our good friends, the house flies
are now on their way back. They
will be numerous this time and
they stick closer than a brother.
The slogan will soon be: On to
Chicago.for the two leading parties
meet there soon. In 1892 there
was held at Chicago the Centenni¬
al Exposition commenoiating the
four hundredth anni veisity of the
discovery of America by Columbus
This was it great eye opener. All
the uoijntries of the world were
represented there. There was the
ferris wheel and a flying machine
by a Frenchman. Soon after u
Mr. Boggs of this county built a
wheel and operated it by mule
power. Two young men of this
county conducted a prayer meeting
at a school boti-e all one summer
They kept saying : Let the cen
tenniai prayer meeting go on.Uncle
Thomas Ledford, better known as
Uncle ‘Cabbage” Th'omas, because
he grew and sold so many cabbage
didn’t know the meaning of Cen
tenniai. So these two young men
manufactured and circulated a re¬
port very detrimental and damag¬
ing to the good report of two fai
girls. Uncle Thomas then knew
the meaning of centenial.
Some of the candidates ol tjw
presidential race are withdrawing
from the contest. At this critical
period there are great responsibili
lies on the chief officer of the
nation. Grover Cleveland wen
into office as a -ingle man and had
only the burdens of the state on his
shoulders. But it was very lone
some in the White House, so be
went over into New York and
brought in Miss Francis Folsom
and they were married one June
day at the• White House. So his
burdens began soon to get very
heavy. His first term was very
pleasant. There soon come a great
depression. Cotton come to 5
cents, mule colts to $20, corn to
40 cents, eggs to 7 cents, common
labor to 4o cents a day, and soon
there arose a sentiment for the free
and unlimited coinage of silver
The President was called a “gold
bug” and there catna along a pair
of gjrl babies, }t all seemed to be
more than he could bear. James
.Buchanan was the only man that
lived at the White House in
ever intended
angle blessedness. His

The enthusiasm with which the
candidacy of Aon. Chas. R. Crisp
for the United State Senate has
been received throughout Georgia
is believed to be the fruit of a
knowledge that Mr. Crisp is
