Do the People of the United States Want
Annexation?
1. It has tho largest leper colony
in tbo world.

are enfranchised or have any
civil rights.
3. Only men of wealth can be
members of the upper house of its
legislature.
4. This upper house has tho mak¬
ing of the president and, contrary to
the usage of every civilized country,
has the absolute coutrol of tho purse
strings.
5. Its finances are in hopeless
confusion because the rich men who
constitute the government refuse to
tax themselves.
6. Ten-elevenths of its products
aro sugar, raised on fifty-two planta¬
tions owned by about 100 men and
worked by 50,000 coolies and semi-
slaves.
7. Every great power of Europe
and Japan have refused flatly to even
consider a proposition to annex the
island.
8. Tho only liopo of the present
government is annexation to the
United States, which would thereby
guarantee lands it tho ruling class in the
lias stolen and give it fresh
and hotter opportunities for thieving.
9. There are less than 3,000 men

birth or ancestry.
30. There are more than 35,000
Chinese and Japanese contract labor¬
ers, the only sort of labor that can

1890, arrived i» this port today
Aboard tho steamship Liberia. They
say that the scheme was a total fail-
tiro; that many of their number died
of starvation and fevers; that the
society did not fulfill the contract and
many members of the expedition are
stranded in England, unablo to get
back to thoir homes.” Tho Southern

Whothor our last grand jury acted
through ignorance or whether they
thought it a fair price wo do not

any one possessing the least bit of

tion of the general presentments.
"VVe would do all in our power to
secure 10 cents for every pound of
cotton each ono of our friends put

a 5 cent price. Wo publish the pre¬
sentments as a matter of news for
our many subscribers, not for the
money there is in it, for $10 would
hardly pay for the compositson.
We think tho general presentments

paid fot at something like legal rates,
which aro low enough the Lord

stingy to pay »fair price tho, .h.nld

report made by JamesKeel, W.B. Joiner

the above committee having been ap¬

We recommend that the proper au¬

We find the public buildings—court

committee’s report.
The undersigned committee, appointed
by the Grand Jury at the February ad¬
journed term 1897 Superior Court of
Calhoun county to examine books of
county officers and make report of same
to next Grand Jury, beg leave to submit
tlio followiug report:
We find upon examining the tax re¬
ceiver’s books, that the digest for 1896
shows that in said year there were re¬
turned for taxes 170,704 acres of land.
By reference to the county map we fiud
iu Calhoun county 180,700 acres of land
which shows 18,996 acres not returned,
which, if returned at a proper valuation,
would foot up more than $500, entailing a
loss to the county of more than $500 iu
the way of taxes. That the average valua¬
tion of land in the county ns appears from
tho digest of 1890 is a little less than $2.35
per acre, ihat She average valuation of
merchandise in tho county is $j 3,.»75,
and that of city and town property
$74,773, all of said valuations, in the
judgment of your committee, aro entirely
too low and very much out of harmony
with tho grand appearance of things.
And we recommend, therefore, that the
next grand jury bo more diligent in look-
ing into this particular feature of tho
county’s affairs, and see to it that the tax
receiver does his full duty in having all
specios of property returned at a fair
valuation, as required by law under his
oath.
tVo fiud that some of the fiuest lands
in tho county are received by the tax
assessors at from $3 to $4 per acre, when
in tho opinion of your committee, it is
well known by tho assessors at tho time
said returns are made that these lands
ean bo , sold ,, any time .. for ... twice or three ,,
times the price placed upon them by the
owners in their tax returns.

lowing, with few exceptions as far as

IN THE 5WIM
He said the suit he rented came up half¬
way his thighs, with sleeves in proportion;
he said he was almost ashamed to appear
in the surf in such styde; as it made him
think when he was a little boy with his
waifctpants on. ‘T examined the suit,
walked around in room No. 65 a good
while before I could muster up courage to
go out. I surveyed the surroundings
through the hall and on down to the briny
deep, and saw that all the other men were
In the same garb. I then mustered up
courage to put In (he arena. I peeped
east, west, north and south to see If any
women were near. Could see none and
I made my exit from room, going down
steps of bath house feeling as gay as a
peacock when lo, and behold! there were
thirty-six hellos from Atlanta gazing on
this beautiful form. I trembled and cut
out for the surf 150 yards distant, far j
over in mother ocean.”
Sly better half is aquatic to a great de¬
gree; loves to plunge in fresh water creeks
at home when there is no one (ladies)
near, but he told me he swallowed half a
gallon of salt water, and the women kept
him in there four hours, as they kept
coming tho later it got, bo it was dark be-
fore ■ he reached the shoro. He landed
j safe at Brunswick on the 1 O’clock boat;
so much for him. My niece and myself
made arrangements to go to St. Simons
Monday the 14th, to take in the island
and surroundings. Going aboard the
beautiful steamer, ‘ Pope Cutlier” wo
rived there at 9.30 o’clock, andfound about
200 guests from all portions of the State
engaged in various amusements. Of
course we. too, joined them and spent a
