A glorious shower of rain fell in
this section Tuesday afternoon and
the farmers are wearing more cheer¬
ful countenances in consequence.
Now that, war with Spun is a
certainty, our farmers should stop
long enough to figure on the ques-
tion whether they haven’t overdone
the cotton acreage.
Messrs. Hofmayer, Jones & Co.,
of Albany, will make a display of
goods at W. D. Cowdrey's store in
Arlington tomorrow. See their spe-
eial notice elsewhere.

Day, which always brings tender
memories of the heroes who wore
the gray during the fierce civil war.

soldiers’ graves in our cemetery that
will receive reverent attention on
this sacred, anniversary.
A petition has been signed by the
Cuthbert bar indorsing the candi¬
dacy and urging the re-election of
Judge H. C. Sheffield to the Supe¬
rior Court judgeship. This is one
of the many deserving compliments
that are being paid the faithful and
painstaking service of this able
jurist. The judge is a popular offi¬
cial and he bids fair to be re-elected
without opposition.—Cuthbert Lib¬
eral.

The Democrats of Calhoun county
havo been called by Chairman Cart-
ledge to assemble in mass meeting
at Morgan on Monday next, for the
purpose of reorganizing the execu¬
tive committee and transacting such
other business as they may see fit.

have the next representative hail

might be well for them to turn out
in full force.
The fourth and last shipment of
cattle from Arlington to tho Indian
territory was sent forward Tuesday
afternoon. The shipment consisted
of thirteen carloads, 1,027 head. Mr.
J. F. Stevenson, the clever gentle¬
man who has been buying the cattle
at this point, went with this train.
In all about 3,500 or 3,600 head have
been shipped from Arlington, and
this represents only a small fraction
of the number shipped from South¬
west Georgia the past three months.
The coming into our section of these
western parties in search for cattle
should open the eyes of our people
to the possibilities of cattle raising
and lead them to improve their
herds and thus insure a better price
in future transactions.
