There is a whole volume of truth
in the epigrammatic saying of
Senator of John M. Palmei, of Il
linois, that “tho ability of the
present congress to at tend to the
affairs of other nations is only e
qualled by its incompetency in
dealing with tho affairs of our
own.”

'l'he low., legislator has defeated
the general State Temperance bill
and the prohibitionists of tho State
seem to have no further hope. It
is not only a fatal blow to the
cause in lowa, but it will have a
disheartening effect upon tho ex
treme temperance people every
where. It is an official acknow
ledgment that prohibition has
proved a failure, even in lowa,
whore it has been tested under the
best possible conditions It is evi
dent that some other reined}' must
bo found for tho evils of the liquor
traffic.
Tbe Proper Thing.
At a called meeting of the Board
of Roads and Revenue of Walker
county held in La Payette Tuesday
of last week, that body offered a
reward of $l5O for the airest, with
proof to convict,.of the party who
assaulted Miss Jones near Rock
Springs. Gov. Atkinson has offer
ed $250 reward, and this supple
mented by $ 100 by the Jones fam
ily, makes an aggregate reward of
SSOO. Sooner or later, this amount
of money will almost be sure to
bring the guilty party to justice.
The Convict Question.
'l'he Savannah Morning News
has for years urged that the con
victs be employed in the building
of permanent public roads, and
other public works. With very
few exceptions, the public roads of
Georgia are a disgrace to ourcivil
ization. They are killing to horse
flesh, a source of enormous expense
directly and indirectly, and a hin
drance to agricultural and busi
ness prosperity. And under the
present road laws and road work
ing systems, they will never be
better. Taxpayers grudge the at
tention they are required to give
to the public roads, and shirk road
duty whenever it can be done.
The average number of convicts
in the Georgia penitentiary is
something like 2,500. Even half
of that number employed constant
ly in constructing permanent pub
lic highways would be of incalcul
able benefit to the state. The
building of a system of good roads
throughout the state would be a
vast undertaking, and would re
quire many years of time. But
the growth of the mileage of good
roads would be constant, and the
loads would be permanent. In
order to obtain the best resu ts
from the employment of convicts
on the roads, it would be necessary
to have them work under scientific
direction. A competent engineer
should make surveys of tho roads
to I e improved, and calculate the
drainage and grades upon scientific
bases. lie should be a permanent
employee of the state, responsible
to the state for the results achiov
undor his direction.
A Generous Expression.
Since the report gained currency
that Gov. Atkinson would proba
bly retire from polities ami engage
in business, numerous friends of
his from every section of the state
have written him asking that he
remain in tho field and make the
race for governor.
There seems to be a general con
census of opinion that no other
man is so fully equipped to
lead the party in Georgia this yc-r
mil there has been a very general
demand that he should do so.
Among many other letters re
ceived by Gov. Atkinson on this
subject is one from Gen. Clement
A. Evans, in which ho said (bathe
had read of the governor's “con
templated possibility of declining
(ho assured nomination and elec
tion this year to the office of gov
nor,” and adds:
“I beg leave to say most sincere
ly to you that in my judgment
your candidacy is of the highest
importance at (his juncture, and I
hope you may be ablj to ‘render
that service in tho present exigen
cy.”
That was bravely and nobly said.
It proves that Gen. Evans is cap
able of burying every trace of feel
ing engendered in the late contest,
and that he is ready to do all that
may bo done for tho cause of Dem
ocracy and good government. En
der ail the circumstances this let
ter is at once a proof of generosity
of heart and patriotism on the
part of Gen. Evans, and a high
compliment to G >v. Atkinson.

Resolutions of Respect.
Whereas, it has pleased thegreat
Grand Master of the Universe to
remove from our midst our esteem
ed and beloved brother, R. S. Con
ley to tho presence of tho Worship
ful Grand Master above.
Bro. Conley was born May 7,
1834. Was made a Mason soon
after he reached his majority, he
being a charter member of Trion.
Lodge when it was organized in
1869. Ho was devoted to the or
der, even living up to the princi
ples it fosters, Faith, Hope and
Chirity were even his watchwords.
Ho was also a strong believer in
tho religion of our blessed Savior,
which religion ho professed in ear
ly life; united with the Methodist
church and lived a consistent
member of the same up to the day
of his death.
Bro. Conley was a conscientious
man, ever ready to condemn the
wrong and contend for the right;
ever using his influence for the ele
vation of his fellow man and the
cause of his blessed Redeemer he
professed to love and serve.
For many years he was an active
man in all the avocations of life,
rendering such service as was ben
eficial to himself and family, but
in his declining years his health
gave way. That insidious destroy
er of life, consumption, began to
prey upon his system and for years
ho was unable to engage in the us
ual pursuits of life. But as tho
physical man gave way, the spirit
i ual man was strengthened and re
, nowed day by day, and the bright
star of hope continued to shine
with greater luster ana supernal
iglory, until at last the swift wing
fed angel of death came, with me
teoric speed, and in an instant our
I brother was summoned to lay down
his trussel board of hope to enjoy
i that charity that is extended
i through the boundless realms of
eternal bliss, in that house not
made with hands, eternal and in
the Heavens.
Resolved, that in the death of
Brother Conley Lyerly Lodge No.
338, F. and A. M. has lost a good
and faithful member.
Resolved, the community a good
and faithful citizen and the church
one of its brightest jewels; the
wife a faithful companion, the
children a kind, indulgent and lov
ing father.
Resolved, that Lyerly Lodge No.
338 wear the usual badge of mourn
ing thirty days for our deceased
brother, and that we tender our
heartfelt sympathies and condo
lence to the bereaved wife and
children.
That a copy of these resolutions
be tendered to the family of the
deceased brother, and that they be
spread upon the minutes of Lyer
ly Lodge, and that they be sent to
the Chattooga News for publica
tion, and that the Walker County
Messenger be requested to copy.

As a matter of information' to
those who may feel disappointed
because their usual quota of seed
has not been forthcoming from

none to send. Don’t write to John
Maddox for seed. He has none
now but wil 1 send them as seen as
he gets them.
