The North Georgia Methodist Epis
copal conference is over, and the peo
ple of the Dalton district want to
know what pastors they will have an
other year. Well, here are the publish
ed appointments:
DALTON DISTRICT.

Dalton Female College—G. J. Orr.
It is with regret that the people of
the Dalton circuit will part with Rev.
J. R. Speck. He has made hosts of
friends in his charge and among
the general public who would have so
gladly had him remain among us an
other year or two. His successor,
Rev. Marcellus D. Smith, is a young
man of great promise, and has always
been very popular where he oili
ciated.
Rev. W. C. Dunlap has been suc
ceeded as presiding elder by Rev. H.
J. Adams,who enjoys the title of “The
Watchdog of the Conference.” Mr.
Dunlap will not officiate as presiding
elder the coming year, but will have
charge of St. James church, Atlanta.
Mr. Dunlap has d*|ne valuable work
as presiding elder, as well as made
many friends here who sincerely regret
that he will not be with ns the coming
year.
There is a general expression of de
light that Rev. A. W. Quillian has
been returned to the First Methodist
church.
The next session of the conference
meets in Gainesville, despite the zeal
ous and untiring efforts of Mr. Sam E-
Berry to get it to come to Dalton.
Cartersville had it last year, and this
end of the line could not get it two
years so close together. It had to go
round. That is the reason that Mr.
Berry’s efforts did not prove success
ful.
Prof. G. J. Orr did not get the money
for the addition to the college, but he
received certain assurances that make
him very hopeful of getting part, if
not all of it.
Presiding Elder Adams sends in to
The Argus for publication the follow
ing notices of his appointments:

encouraging them to greater efforts in
the agaicultural line.
By the way, if an outsider may be al
lowed to grumble, when is Dalton going
to erect hitching posts for the conven
ience of ye countrymen? The lack of
proper advantages in Dalton of this kind
is an oft heard complaint among the
country people.

FILLMORE FLIPFLAPS,
Candidatea and Fleas Are Numerous
The Thoma* Cat Sing*.
Fillmore, Ga., December 7.—Our
usually quiet neighborhood is
unnusually quiet just now. However,
as we write, our ears are assailed by
the musical strains of the festive tom
cat, and we are reminded that “the
world do move.” We hape the cat
will be similarly inclined.
Candidates are as thick as fleas at a
picnic, and just now the individuality
of every citizen looms up as of the
greatest importance. The candidates
are such good hearted, friendly fellows,
that is a pity they cannot all be elec
ted. We cannot mention them by
name, as a score or more of them have
not yet announced through the regu
lar channel, The Argus.
Pleasant Grove Sunday school will

somewhere between here and Varnell

g<» up that way and come back
shouting happy.
RED CLAY .
What In Doing on in That Lively Little
Free! net.
Red Clay, December C>.—ln as
suming the vast and Herculean task
of correcting the abuses of govern
ment, some of which are largely sup
posed whilst others are quite real,
would not the best sense be consulted
by going a little slow? There is quite
a shower of predictions and talk
among the patriots and statesmen, as
well ns by lesser lights and small
fry about the advisability of an extra
session of congress. The elect head of
this great nation is being importuned
for and against with force suffi
cient to addle a head not fully in pos
session of its owner. He has just re
turned irom the woods, where he went
to escape personal contact with a
horde of unanimous friends and sup
porters, with a smart sprinkle of vol
unteer advisors—only to be re-be
sieged with all the odor that lies in
patriotic hearts. But with it all, we
regard him in line with Davy Crock
etl’s motto, which was: “Be sure-you
are right and then go ahead.” This
government of ours is a big thing,
and cannot be handled like turning
Over pancakes. These are too man}
interests in antagonism to be concilia
ted in a day. We have to go away
back to the good old days to get pat
terns for the work in hand. The job
is 100 great and too valuable to be pro
ceeded with in haste. The best enei
gy bind manhood of the world are in
volved. The untold millions that will
come after us will either approve or
reject the fabric we are weaving—re
joicing in the glory of our triumph
or lamenting our object and pitiabh
failure. 8o let us go slow, but sure,
for as Aunt Sally says:
Yon may say what you please,
But I've often seen it tried,
That the fastest trotting pony
Is not the best to ride—
That a slow ambling gate
Is the best after all,
As it assures ourgetting there
And never let’s us fall.
Local news is not as extensive aS it
is in Dalton. Our friends, Cousin
Lank Barrett and Tom Glenn, paid
our town a visit today. Both are good
looking and confident of favorable re
sults in January next.
Our esteemed friend, Dr. B. B.
Brown, has purchased the HufT prop
erty in this place, and will remove
here about the first of January. Out
people extend to the doctor a beauty
greeting.
Judge Henderson Wilson paid our
town a pleasant visit, on Monday.
R. A. Dean opened school here on
Monday. He is highly encouraged al
the outlook. Mr. Dean is an energetic
teacher, and will have order, system
and subordination.
Candy pullings and singings are all
the rage now.
Our Big Circular will be
sent around Wednesday.
