Ono or two communications crowded out of this issue. It might be sorter funny to have a picnic one of these days. You can get your nice soda water at Buck Hollis’s Store. Miss Mamie Wakeley spent a day in the village last week. Taylor & Bro. are headquarters for School Books. W. M. Johnson has been sick this week. lie is better now, however.

Cleghorn. J. C. Neal, near Menlo, has two milch cows giving milk which lie wishes to sell: also 200 gallons sorghum. Wo have received our second I stock of Dry Goods that we will ) sell as low as the lowest. Thompson Hiles & Co. There is not a single vacant dwelling in town now, except the Methodist parsonage, and it is in bad repair. The liver and kidneys must be kept in good condition. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is a great remedy for regulating these organs. A little infant of Mr. and Mrs. G. J. Moyers, which was born Monday, died Tuesday, and was buried in the Sum merville cemetery Wednesday. NOTICE—AII persons are warned not to turn their stock on my clover field, in front of E. N. Martin’s res- ' idence, under penalty of the law. R. I). Jones. Mrs. 'William Owens, who lived about six miles above Trion in 'Walker county, died Wednesday of last week, aged about 31 years. We will certainly sell yon if you will give us a call. Price all around if you like, and then come to see us) we are determined not to be un dersold. Hollis & Hinton. Dr. J. C. Calhoun will deliver a Sunday school lecture at Perennial Springs next Sunday, the 27th, at 9:30 o’clpck, a. m. All are cordi ally invited to attend.

We have just received the largest and most elegant line of Misses. Ladies and Childeren trimmed and ; untrimmed Straw Hats ever offered ; in the Summerville market. We , have marked these goods down, and will sell them regardless. Come early. Hollis <t Hinton. The men who went out of town last Tuesday firing pistols will please come back and be fined for it. It will save trouble, as Marshall ■Walker knows who they are, and will get them when they come to town again. We are receiving our stock of spring goods, which will be sold as low as the lowest. Alter you have got all the prices you want, call on us and be convinced we will not be under sold. Thompson Hiles & Co. For the year ending May 221, 1888, Postmaster Hollis issued 564 money orders and registered 280 letters. Supposing that the orders and letters averaged $lO each—a. reasonable supposition—the amount sent from Summerville in this way for the year was $8,440. Our prices tell the people and the people tell the price. Result: quick sales, crowded store and customers happy. Hollis <fe Hinton. C. C. Johnston, of Chattoogaville who has been teaching a school at Chance, Ala., returned home some days ago. Lon Dalton has the contract to build the trestling at Jakevillc and the Harlow’ gap. The work at Jakevillc has been begun. The machinery and necessary meterials for the broom factbiy are in Rome, all paid for, and will be sent for and put up in a few days. Rev. W. A. Milner intended to attend the centennial celebration of the Presbyterians in Philadelphia, but was prevented on account of the delicate health of Mrs. Milnor.; The largest stock of shoes ever ) shown in Summerville, and at pi ices to suit everybody, at Hollis <fc Hixton. Rev. T. S. Johnston was in sown last Friday and conducted the Presbyterian prayer meeting that evening. Saturday he went to Beersheba to conduct two days services there. J. ('ooper, who keeps the grocery of Mr. Cureton, has moved his fur niture and household goods from Chattanooga, and is now a perma nent citizen of our town, wo are glad to say. R. F. Roberson, of Subligna, camo in last Saturday and renewed his subscription. He say.'- the farmers ; in his neighborhood are doing well and are right up with their crops, which are good. We recommend that the council remove the boxing around the well in front of the Knox House and in close the same with a ten-foot rail fence. This would be a better in closure than the present one. The contract for building the railroad from Mosteiler’s to Ster ling, Ala., will be let thelast of the week, the bids already have been sent in. It is generally understood that work will be begun at once. Two men by the name of Dewberry .•mil Brueo had a difficulty near Mostel-; 1 w’s while returning home from town , T icsilay. Dewberry threw a pistol at Bruce and broke his nose and put out one eye. This is bettor than being shot but still it is a pretty rough way to treat a man. J. S. McGinnis requests every one who is interested in putting the ; cemetery in proper condition to meet him at the cemetery on Friday the Ist of June, to clear it off. Those who cannot go will send a hand. Our stock of Dry Goods, Dress i Goods, Satins, Laces, Shoes, Hats,) Clothing, Gents furnishing goods, i etc, etc, is complete and our ciowd ed store, is duo to this, and espec ailly low prices. Hollis & Hinton. Rome, after bragging for three or four week about the good effects of prohibition, has now awakened to the fact that men still drink in prohibition cities. Rome is learn ing what the balance of the world already knows. Mr. Roberts, who has had charge of the construction of the railroad bridge at Trion, began last Friday the construction of the trestling across the Henry branch, two miles above town. It will take him ten days to finish. We learn that Dr. J. W. Clements of Subligna has been making sev eral trips to Athens, Tenn., lately. The impression made by the “Maid of Athens” appears, like the chan nels of streams, to deepen with time. Well, “It was ever thus.” Twelve miles of track of the C. R. & C. railroad have been laid j from Rome toward Summerville. If | the track, as has been anticipated, lis completed to Trion by next Sat urnav, there will remain only 25 miles between Rome and Chattan- I Ooga to finish. I Rev. T. IL Timmons will preach i a sermon on the subject of Sunday schools nt this place next Sunday |at 11 o’clock, a. m. All, and es pecially the young, are urged to j attend. He will preach at Raccoon at 4 o’clock, p. m., and at this place again in the evening. Editor Loomis says he appreci- ' ates the visits of the ladies; cs-I ' pecially those whom he knows do ) not come with the intention of ■ availing themselves of leap years privileges. Well a day. We ' thought the reverse of this was true in the case of Editor Loomis. , The following arc some of the - ) aged citizens of Chattooga county: > James Harlow, 87; Wesley Sliop s shire, Sr., 87; E. O. Alexander, 8S ; i. J. B. Quails, 85; Elijah Mathis, 85 : , ; O. F. Perry, 82; James Herndon, • 80. There are probably others over I 80, but we do not know of them. ; Sheriff Worsham is smiling over anew arrival. It is said a mad dog was killed in town Wednesday. The dog probiibly had the toothache, and acted curious, and thus lost his life. The house of Rev. Alfred Ma ples, in Dry Valley, caught fire last week, but was extinguished before much damage was done. Della Maxey, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Maxey, who has been very sick with typhoid fever, is no better, we are sorry to say. On the amended plea of Dr. Jones for damages for right of way, Judge Fain at Cartersville fixed the bond at $250 pend ing the final settlement of the case. Alf 'Woodruff and George Stew art, both colored and both charged with murder, broke out of Centre, Ala., jail last Saturday, and have not been recaptured. A man by the name of Dugger, who lias been selling liquor in Cold water, is liable to get into the) courts. It appears he has license to sell by the gallon, but has moved from pla.ee to place several times, and this, some claim, is a violation of the law. Tire claim of Dr. R. I). Jones for damages sustained by the railroad being built through his land adjoin ing town was not allowed by Judge Fain, before whom it was heard at; Calhoun last week, holding that the doctor had signed a paper giving: right of way. The plea was amend- i ed ami will be tried again. The cemetery ought to lie seen after. It is overgrown with briars ami bu-'hes, and is a disgrace to the j 1 town. Any one would judge, after seeing it, that the living have for gotten the dead, and are too stingy to spend a little money in having work done, that only common de cency demands. Sheriff Foster, of Walker county, came down last Saturday, his bus iness being to convey George Bogan I who is charged with assaul twith at-1 tempt to murder in Walker county j and whom Deputy Sheriff Knox | arrested and lodged in jail last! week, to 'Walker county jail. 80-1 gan failed to make the necessary! bond. The claim of At Kirby for dam-I I ages caused by tile railroad running i through his land adjoining town, j was heard by Judge Maddox last week. Judge Maddox required I S3OO to be paid into court, pend- ) i ing the final settlement of tl<e case,; j and this had to be done in order to allow the work on the road to pro ceed. W. I’. Foster, of Foster’s Store, writes: “Here lam again. Bring out your big eggs. Mr. W. H. i Dempsey brought to my store this : morning a hen egg that measured I 6 inches around and 7J inches long. This egg was laid by the regulation old yellow leg. It is powerful rough on a hen to lay these kind of eggs at 7.1 cents a dozen.” The work on the railroad is pro gressing favorably. In two weeks' all the grading and trestling be tween Rome and Chattanooga will be ready for the ties. There are yet about twenty-six miles of track to lay. The track will be laid to I Summerville in twenty days, at far thest, from this date : then our poo-1 pie, who have waited a long time; fora railroad, can all take a ride. ) Dr. Pifer, the travelling physician left town the first of the week, car rying with him as the result of two weeks’ practice a sum estimated at from SSOO to SI,OOO cash. This il lustrates how easily sick people can bo taken advantage of by plausable strangers. The doctors who live here are in every way worthy of con fidence and are, so far as can be known, as skillful as Dr. Pifer; yet no one of them ever made SSOO in | two weeks. The mail between this place and ) Centre, Ala., sometimes gets there I and sometimes it does not. We I frequently get the Centre papers a week old—sometimes not at all.; Once for all, we again state we are ; careful to mail the News to all | our subscribers every week on I Thursday, and there our part ends. We have no means to secure their delivery. While, like every body, ; we occasionally make mistakes, yet, I with the care we exercise, we know ■ they arc few and far between. Rev. D. T. Espy, who has the Icontract for furnishing cross ties I for the railroad between Trion and Foster’s bridge, has gotten out 13,- ) 668 to date. The distance from | Trion to Foster's bridge is 13 miles; and it will take 35,100 lies. Mr. | Espy thinks he will be able to fur nish enough to tie the road suffi cient to lay the track by the time the ties are needed. We learn ties i bring about twenty-four cents each,' I and this would make those Mr. Es- Ipv has already gotten out .worth | $3,280.32. Thomas 'Wade, one of the mail carriers between Trion and Rome, was arrested in the latter place last Friday, charged with violating the prohibition law. It seems that Mr. Wade has been receiving money in Rome and then buying whisky in Summerville and delivering it to parties there. In other words, cit izens of Rome sent by him for whisky, which he bought here and delivered to them. Uniform kindness and politeness will win every time. We have thought of it often and wondered why it was, but until we made it our business to see for ourselves we were in the dark. We have reference to J. W. Pitts, the leader of low prices, short profits and quick sales. Mr. Pitts treats every one politely, sells them his goods at close figures, has a kind word and a smile for all, and when you I patronize him once you will do so again. He buys and receives fresh goods every week and you will find something new every time you go. Mr. R. C. Stotts, of Haywood, was in town last week, seeing, what encouragement he could secure in building a planing mill and handle factory. The success he met with was of a nature to justify him in ’ making the statement to us that be thought there was no doubt that the mill and factory will be built, lit will take $2,5000 to build a first class planing mill and handle facto ry. Both can be operated by the same engine, and in this way the I cost is greatly lessened. The site for the mill and factory will be donated by Messrs. Henry, Taylor and Henley, who own eighty acres just east of town. It is to be hoped that the people will take hold of this enterprise in such away as to preclude its failure. Monday last the citizens of Suin ) merville met at the court house to ; take action toward building a brick I college building. The meeting was j well attended. The formation of a I joint stock company was decided : upon as tiie. best way to compass the end in view. It was decided to j issue 500 shares at $lO each, those I subscribing to have stock to the 1 amount which they subscribe. Thirteen hundred dollars was sub scribed before the meeting ad journed, which together with the) I SI,OOO to be collected on the in-j | surancc policy, makes $2,300 in ' sight and leaves $2,700 yet to bo raised. There is little doubt lint ) that the amount necessary will be | secured, and that Summerville will | have, not a High School, but a College. Notice to Teachers. The s tate School Commissioner has appointed the 29th, 30th and ; 31st days of May for the examina tion of applicants for license to teach. All persons desiring to make application will please meet me at the court house in Summerville on one of the above named days. No other opportunities forexamination will be given this year. May 10th. ! 1888. Jno. D. Taylor. County School Commissioner. FROM VALLEY STORE. I Rain, rain, rain, grass, grass,grass. The farmers are getting behind ) I with their crops in this section. ) But I recon it is all for the best.; There was no preaching Sunday in ’ our section; \hc rain preventing it. Am glad to siy that Tommy Hendrix ) has about recovered from the kick) he received last Tuesday. Mr. W. F. Tapp, our clever merchant, is going to build him a house soon. Mr. Carter has returned from his visit to Texas valley. Am glad to see him looking so well. Mr. James Story is some what better, hope he will soon be able to get about. What has become of Ruck Smith, I have not seen any thing from him lately. Johnnie I Brown says he knows my voice, but I think he is just acquainted with i nij name. It is so strange. Dick Smith. DOTS FROM DIRT TOWN. i Rain, rain. We are having too ) much rain at present. Farmers | greatly fear the damp, weather will ! ruin the wheat. J. B. Carver and son, of Rome, came out fishing last week. Wesley Shropshire, Jr., of Sum merville, was in our valley last week on professional business. Mr. Shropshire has made quite a repu tation for a lawyer of his years. H. B. McArver and wife, of Coo saville, attended the funeral of Miss ) Mary Dickson last week, and paid ) a short visit to relatives. I Dr. R. D. Jones made a trip to Cartersville this week. Rev. E. H. Baily and wife, of Bar tow county, are visiting relatives in the valley. Alpheus Crawford is spending his vacation :: t home. I W. A King, of Anniston paid his i family a short visit last week. ) Quite a number of our people are expecting to attend Sam Jones’ ) meeting. Dixie. A Point for Good Citizens. The above is a caption of a short editorial in Sunday’s Tribune. We copy part of the article and make comments that we hope will be con sidered by our people at Summer ville. “The Tribune takes it for grant ed that every citizen of Rome wish es to see Rome prosper, and would prefer living in an enterprising, wide-awake community to the ex istence of Sleepy Hollow.” Now we take it for granted that every citizen of Summerville feels the same interest in our town, that the people of Rome do in their prosperity. The crisis is now upon us. Now is the time for the people of Summerville to work together. Wo must have a School building— we must have a good one. It will take money to build it. It is an investment that will pay. The future prosperity of the town depends on what we do now. No citizen can afford to stand oif and not come up liberally in this matter. The Tribune further says: “If we are to go ahead from this time forth and prosper, as we hope to do, we have not only to work for it but we have also to pay for it, often perhaps at the cost of personal j secrilice. “Booms” to drop into popular parlance do not come unin- j vitcd; they are the result of intel ligent application of means to an j end, and while some drones may be I willing to sit supinely by in the ( hope of reaping the profit of other men's efforts, they will ultimately be relegated to the rear, where j they belong. Eras of great public prosperity, and the steady accumulation of wealth surely follow the putting j forth of energy in the right di rec-; tion. and the intelligent, discrimi nating expenditure of large sums j of money. The money must inevi table come from the pockets of the ! people no matter what agencies in - - terpose to make the people think it' may be raised without their direct aid ; and the man who deceives him-1 self into the thought that others j can do the work and pay the bill, . I while be selfishly looks after his; own personal interests, will surely I 'be called upon in the end to pay j ■ his share in a decrease of his busi- . I ness and profit.” I Now if the above views arc true I lof Rome they will be true of our, j town. Not to build a good school build ing will be suicide to every busi-I ness interest in Summerville. Now let' every man come up like ! a man and with hearty energy do i all we can ami we will have a building that will be an honor to our town and attrack others to come among us to educate their children and thus build up the town. Every one knows that the build ing of the house that was burned ■ was the means of bringing great I prosperity. Il is more important nowjustatthe completion of the railroad. The building of a $5,000 ( School building will show that we have public enterprise and mean to j I keep up with the demands upon us,! and will be an inducement to oth ] ere to invest in property here and thus build up the town. I). T. E. ALLIANCE. I am glad to see the interest I manifested by some of Chattooga’s J citizens in calling the people to gether in the interest of the Alli . I ance. Hope each district in the J county will realize the importance ; of the meeting the 2nd Saturday in I.Tune ret apart by committee of farmers. Will say to committee of farmers, that there is no lodge of t.i; ■ Alliance in Dirtto.vn as 1 have heard of, but the first and only one in the county is in Haywood. We have one lodge known as farmers’ , club in Haywood and also one at . Subligna, the intention of which is the same as the Alliance, only they are a local organization and have no state and national channel of 1 trade. I hope they will consider this matter and be one with us on the 2nd Saturday in June, for a house divided against itself cannot stand. This organisation started ’ in the state of Texas, and then to Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida, North Caroling, and finally into ■ i Georgia, and today there are be ; I tween 250 and 300 lodges in the I [ state. I have written for an organ- I izer to meet with you the 2nd Sat >' unlay in June, and I hope a goodly ; number will turn out and have an ■ interesting meeting of farmers. i ! After there are five lodges organ j ized in the county then by a dele- > ■ gation from said lodges we can es ' sablish a county Alliance which t ! tets us in a full channel of trade I with state and national lodge, etc. ■ Initiation fee fifty cents. D. W. Smith, . Sec’y Haywood Farmers Al'nee. IMMIGRATION. Editor News:—“Digs” article on Southern immigration in last week’s News gives material for thought and reflection. While he is correct as to the advantages de rived by speculators and merchants here by an exodus of Northern farmer- South, yet I don’t think they alone are benefited by such a move, but that the agricultural class also may derive considerable benefit by their removal to this country. Though like him, I claimed some time since in an arti cle in the News that what we most needed was capital to develop our untold mineral resources; also va rious kinds of manufacturingenter prises and machinists—mechanics, cotton operatives, etc., such then would give us a market not for the already impoverishing article | both to the farmers land and pocket book, (cotton) but bread stuffs, products of truck patches, dairying, hay, poultry raising, etc. In short, diversified farming would then pay here. At present we have no market much for any products raised ex cept cotton, consequently it is ruin | to a most ruinous extent. Not withstanding we mostly need the; above named class of people yet ]we cordially invite the thrifty! i Northern farmer among us, for in I his coming will be an inducement! j for the other class to also come. ! Then, too,the Southern move will! Ibe the means of increasing real estate in value. But “Dig” might claim that a farmer who doesn't ■ wish to sell and move away that J such an increase in real estate s would place no money in our pock - ets only necessitate us to pay more tax which would be true in this respect, yet I claim there is not a farmer in this country but who ! might cut their farms into half or three parts or even four and still ! make as much upon cither fraction as they do at present upon the whole. Here then is where the real profit exists in agriculture. Then I with the effects derived from sell ing off this surplus we would be I enabled to pay out of debt and with ! the residue be able to make a I change in our farming, build more I comfortable barns for housing our stock in winter, more sightly resi- I dences, and in general beautify our ? homes, imbueing our housewives i with new energy and enterprise, and | give to us a new impetus over our ! present somewhat sluggish gait and style of farming. The French- I man with his two acre farm or the Northern farmer with his ten acres ! are accumulating something while we with numberless acres of allu vial soil are barely eking out an existence. Yes, we need the capi talist, manufacturer, etc., but we too extend a hearty welcome to the thriftv New Englander with his | plow share and reap hook. .1. V. W. Chattooga Singing Choir. Now is the time to improve the culture of music. Music is one of ! the most cheering methods of di i vine worship. Singing is one of the attracting processes used to call the attention of the weak and de filed slnjier to divine worship. There are go ■ I choir.-- in Chattooga, but there is room for improvement. So now let us go to work and bring about our method of singing to the entire public. Last summer there was talk of a singing convention in Chattooga, but one waited for an other till the year rolled by, and nothing done. Now let ns all go to work in much faith, and make a success of vocal music throughout the county. Let every church and class strive for the premium of hon ' or. There is more honor given tiie community of a church for good . singing than for its Gospel for this ■ reason: our pastor does not live in our community every time or he ' moves ('lf and leaves us. So let us have the honor or credit that we can keep at home. Let all start at once and all pull together, and we ' will have a Chattooga Singing Con- • vention somewhere in thecountyon i ! the 21st, 22.1 and 23d days of Au i gust, 1888. Consisting of its neces- J sayy officers, anti committee of ar- I ■ rangements. The convention claims > j two Union Singings and one meet , I ing a year. The union sinkings and > convention also, will be calk'd for, - neither will they sponge on any > community unwanted. If more than • one call the committee will decide. The first union singing at Ami ■ church, Chattooga county, Ga., ia i eluding two days : the second Sun day in June, and Saturday before. - The whole county is invited. - ; Bring all the books you have. There - ■ will be plenty of dinner and ho’ -se i * feed on the ground for foreigners. The second union is not yet loci .ted . j but will bo near Poplar Spring i church. The convention is not lo i cated but will be somewhere, near | the middle of the county. J.H. C. Cedar Springs. I am forced to write to you again this week about the News being delayed in reaching this office. The subscribers are in the gall of bit terness, and this makes twice being delayed. There is a screw loose some where. Please find out which route your post master sends the package of the News for this office. We have been receiving the News regularly except now, and your subscribers have all got the blues about not getting the paper on Sat urday. This office is only 15 miles from your office, on the Summer ville and Centre route. Your cor respondent went out to church at Mill Creek last Saturday and Sun day to hear Rev. Mr. Harnett, of or near Centre. He preached two of the ablest sermons I ever heard, lie is a good man and we all love him. May he come often and preach for us. Long may he live and pros per and turn the sinners to God. May the Lord bless him. One of our candidates for tax collector, Mr. Win. F. Blackburn, j another good man, has been around ito see us. Let the people vote for i him. They never will regret it. ! He will make the best officer Chero i kee ever had. I hear there are sev- I eral beats solid for him. Mr. E. A. Clowdis, I believe is j steadily improving. Mr. Gus Sims will preach at Mill < 'reek next Sun ! day, May 27th. General grass and weeds are on a boom. G. W. B. Subligna Brevities. We have had an aeceptabla rain, and quite a number of our citizens have gone a-fishing today. Crops look well. Our Elder preached for us last Sunday night. There was a large congregation present. Dr. Clements has return ed from Chattanooga. Miss Kate Dixon has returned to ! Subligna. Miss Minnie Murphy is ■ | visiting her many friends at this place. The men of the farmers club meet here once a month. Mr. Lowe is doing a good business now, and so is Capt. Dill, though not a ' club man. Subligna has no more i genteel men than the Messrs. Dill. , The club men about here seem to think that “The Sunny South” will soon organize clubs from the north ern borders to the marshes of Flor- ■ ida; yes, and from the Atlantic to • the wild regions of Texas. Then 1 . reckon they will be called the united farmers of the Sunny South. Bon Random, Ju. W. M. JOIINSON, J. R.
