THE ELECTION.
The returns in last week’s News
from the precincts of the county
for representative were exactly cor
rect. They are as follows:
HENRY JONES
Trion 73 77
Dirttown 57 120
Alpine 22 66
Teloga 21 63
Coldwater 27 96
Summerville 188 232
Seminole 32 61
Dirtseller 41 41
Subligna 15 136
Haywood 5 45
Totals 481 940
Majority for Jones, 459.
The official returns were received
here in the order tliat they appear
above, Trion being first, followed by
the others in the order named. Al
though before night it was univer
sally conceded that Jones would be
elected, yet the large majorities lie
received, as they were made known,
created universal surprise. At
about 5 p. in., when Jones’ success
was assured, some of his enthusias
tic adherants placed him in a buggy
and hauled him through the streets
amidst great cheering. TU' e Henry
supporters, though badly beaten,
proposed to die game. Some of
them putlsam Echols, colored, a
strong Henry man, in a buggy and
rode him down the street amidst
cheering and laughter.
The result of the election was a
great surprise to every one. It was
thought by some of Jones' support
ers that Henry would be elected by
a small majority, and those who
thought otherwise never dreamed
of Jones being elected by a vote of
nearly two to one.
The following is the vote for gov
ernor and state senator. While the
total vote of the county for repres
tative was 1,421, yet Gordon receiv
ed only 836, which is a heavy cut,
and resulted from his action in the
Henry Pope case.
GORDON. HARRIS.
Summerville 276 385

Coldwater 92 123
Dirtto vn 116 142

[ Attorney-General, Anderson, 1,260;
' for Comptroller, Wright, 1,258.
| The proposed amendment to the
constitution authorizing the next
j legislature to elect two more judges
' to the supreme bench did not at
tract much attention. The vote
against it, what was cast, was unan
imous, it. not receiving a single vote.
The vote on it was ns follows:
FOR. AGAINST.
Subligna 00 156
Summerville 00 20
Trion 00 27
Teloga 00 79
Alpine 00 80
Dirttown 60 02
Total majority against 364*
The.* other precincts did not cast
a vote at all for or against the
amendment.
YVe like to have forgot that Glenn
received 4 votes for governor.

Obituary.
On the morning of the 21st of
August, 1888, the death angel en
tered the family of Thomas and
Elizabeth Littlejohn and took from
them their little infant boy, Vivvie
Palmer, aged eleven months. It is
sad, indeed, to give up a little one
like this, but Jesus says: “Suffer
little children to come unto me,
and forbid them not; for of such is
the kingdom of heaven.” About
eight o’clock, a. m., the little bud, .
so pure and tender, was plucked by
the Master’s hand and gently borne
on the pinions of His love to the
celestial city on high ; there to “min
gle in holier strains in realms of 1
fadeless day.” No more will the
sunlight of his smiles, or the inno- (
cent prattle of his infant tongue,
make glad his parents’ hearts and
home. But in that bright beyond,
the golden link now severed shall ;
be united, which the cruel hand of
death shall never break assunder. 1
We would now say to the parents, ,
be faithful and you will meet your :
darling Vivvie in the sweet bye and 1
bye, for he is now an angel, a bright j
shining jewel and once was a jewel
to you but he’s gone—gone to Je
sus in heaven. Ho is now standing I
at the golden gate with his white
snowy wings beckoning to you to ,
come up higher.
