Sometime ago an item was pub- ;'
lisbed in these columns stating that j
a preacher had been hanged at ■
Ozark, Ark. Mrs. J. T. Greer, writ- j
ing from tkat place, says that no
such thing occurred there, and on
her testimony we gladly’ correct the
false impression created by’ the re
port. The item referred to was ob
tained from one of the daily papers,
many’ of which, in the endeavor to
get up sensations, regard not the
truth.
No, No No.
Editor Graves threatens to pub
lish the News. Did he mean the
Chattooga News'?—Rome Herald.
The value of the railroads in the
United States is estimated at eight
billions of dollars and it is said re
quires one million cars to transact
their business.
Some of the papers say that May
or Walton, of Rome, served in Sher
man’s army’ and some that he did
not. The Rome Herald is one of I
the latter, and we incline to believe
it.
Squire Norman of Carroll conn- |
ty has been serving as Justice of
the Peace for ten years and duiing
that time has married one hundred
couples. So popular is he that
when the bands he ties are severed
by death, the widow or widower 1 hus
loosed invariably hunts around, gets
another partner and goes to him to
be bound a second time, same way’
as the first.
Those two monstrous corpora-1
tions, the Louisville & Nashville
and the E. T., Va. <fc Ga., railroads,
having swallowed nearly’ every’ other
railroad in the south, are now en
gaged in whetting their appetites
for the Western and Atlantic. At
present they seem to be rivals for
the possession of the State road.
If this continues it may result in
the lease of the State’s property at
I a fair price. If, however, they agree
I to crush the State road by refusing
■to bid for it and by withdrawing
; their business from it, they could
render it a great deal of damage,
j Sometime or other such a thing
will happen and then the folly’ of
the State owning a railroad and
' owing a debt will be made apparent. |
