One of Many.
One morning perhaps tlirci
weeks ago the people of Atlanta i
were startled (if such things star- ■
tie them) by the announcement i
that L , a young man well oil' <
financially and with plenty of abil- i
ity and brilliant prospects, had i
•ommitted suicide the previous i
night. He had blown his brain
>ut with a pistol. Various reasons i
vere asigned for the act, one being
that he had lost heavily in a spec- :
ulation. But this was not the rea-
son.
The young man had. been engag
ed to a prominent society young i
lady, the daughter of a widow. <
This widow had rented a house
from a man who is a i
prominent government offi
cial, a member of the Methodist <
church, a leading
and the son of a man who is dead l
but whose name is and will be as i
long as Georgia is a state a house- i
hold word throughout its borders.
The daughter called upon this good
(save the mark!) man at his office |
to pay the rent for the house which. |
she and her mother occupied. It:
loes not matter how often she call- ■ 1
ed ; perhaps the rent was due week - ■:
ly, or it may be monthly—anyhow j ]
she went once too often. She was j
tempted and—fell. By some means;
or other this reached the ears of i 1
L , who, upon investigation.)
found it to be too true. He caught
the government official and his alii- ■
anced together under circumstan- I
■ is which precluded the possibility
of a doubt resting upon his mind)
as to the relations existing between i
them. When caught the official
was greatly - alarmed for his good
name and he offered L a sum
of money to hush the matter up,
which offer was accepted. A paper
was drawn up and signed by L
to the effect that in consideration
of so much money lie would let the
matter drop. But when this paper
was signed and delivered to the
official he refused to pay the mon- ■
ey, telling L that if the mat-!
ter was not dismissed just where it
was he would prose,cute him for
blackmail. Then L , with the !
young lady who had been a witness
to the scene, left, a. I that night, ■
disgusted witn himself for hiving
signed a paper that placed him at
such a disadvantage and heart bro
ken at his betrayal by the woman'
he loved, he end 'd his life by his )
own hand.
Now this government official ha® .
a bosom friend in the person of |
one of Atlanta’s great editors, and )
this great editor proved to be of j
great service to him in this case.)
. The editor gave forth in bis paper)
■ that the unfortunate man commit- ‘
ted suicide because of financial loss |
and he saw the correspondents for’
papers published outside of Allan-:
ta and the reporters of Atlanta pa-
■ pers and induced them, soni" for
money consideration, to send out
and publish reports agreeing I
with the one which appeared in his )
paper. By means such as there the
matter was hushed up. The Meth
odist church, to which the govern
ment official belongs, felt constrain
ed to take some action in the mat
ter and they did so by
ing a good coat of whitewash. They
could not afford to turn him out,
for was he not a great man? a man
in favor of good morals and a pro
hibitionist? It is true he bad be-
' trayed his own wife and ruined the
1 reputation of a young lady—had
been the cause of a young man
cutting short his life in a most hor
rible manner; yet lie was. and is,
I unpunished.
[ Nay, he is justified in the sight
Jof men, and his victims, by the
manipulation of himself and his
friend, the editor, made to bear the
blame. Sundays he occupies his
accustomed pew in the church and
j probably in the future he will be
| promoted to higher official station
I than that which he now holds.
Meanwhile his wife is probably un
lb appy, the young lady’s life is
wrecked and her future blighted)
and in one of Atlanta’s cemeteries )
rests the earthly remains of one [
whose soul, according to the relig
ion which the government official |
professes, is lost forever.
One of our exchanges criticises I
our grammar. The sentence which
offended its delicate grammatical
sensibilities is as follows: “On this
he laid more* than four months.”
The article in which this sentence
was used was condensed from a
long article which appeared in the
.New York Star, and we used the I
s-enteuee referred to literally as it
appeared in that paper. Perhaps
lim Star jir.d the News are both
rammatical, for our critic says
,s • but tliev tret there all the tame.:
About the Roads,
If Mr. Doster had closely scan
ned the columns of the News last e
year he would have found com- t
plaints in regard to the condition (
of the roads then as now. There \
is something wrong somewhere, and 1
the way to flfid the remedy is to i
expose the evil. The roads were i
never in such a bad condition as
they are now, weather considered, i
This assersion is not intended as a s
reflection upon any individual; i
perhaps it is the fault of the law, i
which may not provide sufficient i
means to keep the roads in proper 1
condition. If this is so the law t
ought to be amended. We only (
know the roads are bad and think t
it no harm to tell the truth, and by I
telling it perhaps some one will
come forward with a plan by which :
they will be improved. Arc glad i
to know great discoveries arc never i
prevented by bad roads; still, it <
makes them more difficult and I
sometimes delays them, perhaps. I
Col. Tom Milner.
Years ago when Chattooga, by i
the rotation system in vogue, had
the naming of the state senator
and selected Col. Gamble for that 1
position, Judge Wright, of Floyd,
ran as an independent against him. 1
This was manifestly unfair, as this :
county was entitled to the senator.
During the campaign Col. Tom)
Milner annihilated Judge Wright in
I a joint discussion at Summerville,
and rendered Chattooga a favor she
has not forgotten. She- therefore
wishes Col. Milner well in his race I
; for the Judgeship of the Cherokee
circuit.
'Flic next term of the Governor- :
ship will probably be the most im- ■
portant of our past-war history. ;
Any other than a great Governor I
at the crisis of “betterments” and
other schemes that might blind the I
forthcoming General Assembly
would be a’ public misfortune be
yond repair. The exalted office is j
I Gov. Gordon’s again if he wishes it
I —nay, we do not dream that the
people would permit him to decline I
i t.—G recnsboro 11 erald.
There is nothing needing more I
| attention at the present time than )
the public roads of Georgia. In i
nearly every county they are a dis
grace to civilization and the man
ner in which they are worked is the
) biggest farce of the age. Our com-i
ing legislators should do something )
|to remedy the evil. Change the)
present law and work the roads by
i levying a road tax - , or else turn the
! convicts upon them. —Cartersville
I (lourant-American.
Canada continues to be a popu
lar resort for bank officers. Mr.
' R >yce, late cashier of the Willim
antic Savings Bank, of Connecticut,
will defray his sojourn there with .
$159,900 belonging to the bank. |
Pres. Cross and Cashier White, of
the State National Bank, of Ral
eigh, N. C., will use >5250,000 be
longing to their bank for the same
purpose.
The Atlanta Constitution devotes
whole columns to editorials oppo
sing a reduction of the tariff. It is
in order for it to devote a little)
space in explanation of how it come '
to change its views from what they
were three years ago, when it favor- :
ed a reduction. This would be much ,
more interesting reading than its
chestnutty protection editiorials. i
Carroll County Times: It seems
that Hon. J. C. Clements, the effi
cient and working congressman of I
the Seventh, is to have numerous
antagonists in his race this fall.
The people of that district had bet
j ter keep their “Mountain Colt” in
the harness. lie is filling his seat
honorably and should be re-elected.
The discussion of Church gov- •
eminent which has been and is go-;
ing on in these columns is all right, I
i for organization is necessary fori
success in Church as well as State. )
i But to all who expect and want to
Igo to Heaven perhaps it is not out
of place to say the only way known
I is via Calvary.

Tiie candidacy of our distinguish

race, with very encouraging pros
pects of “getting there.”—Carters

Clover vs. Cotton.
A number of the farmers of this
section are turning their attention
to stock, clover and grasses. Lum «
Cameron, on Capt. Napier's farm, 11
will thresh this year the clover off v
199 acres, the yield of which, ordi- *
narily, ought to be 150 bushels, 5
worth SI,OOO, besides the hay.
Where there is a good stand an 8
acre will produce sls worth of hay; v
so it will be seen that Mr. Cameron •
will realize $25 per acre on his clo
ver, if he has no bad luck, besides 1
resting and making the land better. c
Bud and Ben Hutchins will thresh 1
the clover from 30 acres, while J. 1
C. and W. M. Neal, Lnckic Knox '
and A. J. Lawrence will all proba- c
bly have more or less to thresh. (
Last year Luckie Knox made six p
acres of clover average him $lB an t
acre, besides the seed, six bushels, <
worth $lO. It can be seen at a <
glance that this kind of farming <
beats raising cotton. Those who ) 1
try it not only clear more money,
but they also improve their lauds p
which become more fertile every >
year.

With the exception of roseola
and mumps the health of our com- I
munity is good. Wheat is looking '•
very well; oats not doing so well. 1
There is very little corn planted I
yet. The rain did considerable 1
damage to lands and roads in this
section. Some of our farmers are J
very busy hauling guano from Vai- 1

HAYWOOD.
We have had a water boom in
Haywood and our rails are gone '
a-booming, and I think it is about ;
time to have another election on the j
fence or no fence if we ever intend '
to, don’t you?
News is scarce with us as the '
News did not reach Haywood on '
account of the high waters, 1 sup
pose.
We are having considerable sick- i
ness in our immediate settlement,
which Dr. Roan is successfully i
treating. Mr. .'ws Gargle bus
four children with the fever, oirn of '
whom is very low. Mr. L. G. Seog- '
ins has three which are convalesc- :
ing. Mrs. D. W. Smith has been
quite sick but is improving.
The wheat crop in our vicinity
looks quite promising. The peach '
crop I think is all killed, also the
Le Conte pears.
Farmers are taking hold of their
work with much energy since the
rains and high waters, and from
l whnt 1 can learn I don’t thing they '
will go in debt aS much this year
as heretofore. We have sn organ
ization cant'd the Farmers Alliance
in our valley which I think is a
good thing if the entire county will
take hold and all cooperate. If I
understand the working of it cm'-
I rcctly when they get suflfcdently
I strong they will have a business;
| agent to contract in buying and \
selling for them, thereby saving for l
them the middle man’s profit. Iti
I does seem to me that we farmers!
could by cooperation get what we
are necessarily compelled to buy at
first cost, and sell our cotton to the;
shippers, if we would put the right
I kind of stillness in our backbones
. and move in that direction.
1 notice our last grand jury rec- ;
I ommer.ded a higher road tax on the ,
! people, and while I believe we need |
' more road tax yet I think the poor !

of raising the tax oh the poor rent-
• er, 1 think it would be more just to :
lew a tax of about two dollars on ;

I have them to haul rock where the;
