One -Thing 'Overlooked.
In the many articles written about
Brunswick and its manifold attrac
tions, “its wonderful harbor, its
health-giving waters, bountifully sup,
plied by natnre, its flowery parks and
its parks that are not floiyery, its
magnificent moss laden oaks, balmy
pines and fragrant magnolias, its per
fect climate at all seasons, its elegant
hotel accommodations, second to
none in thq South, its fine residences)*
massive brick buildings, commodious
street cars, and unarivalled boule
vards; onevery important institution
has been overlooked."
In a city numbering ten thousand
inhabitants and hoasting of improve
ments and progress in every direc
tion; is it not remarkable that after
four years hard struggle for existence,
our Brunswick Public Library num
bers less than one hundred members,
and they have succeeded in placing
on thp .shelves about two thousand
volumes of the best authors.
The citizens of Brunswick are
ur-.'H to make this a successful and
permanent institution, by increasing
the membership and aiding and en
couraging every etf6rt made, in its
behalf, and to that end don’t forget
the entertainment at the Hall to-mor
row night. , f '
We only sell the best pocket knife.
We guarantee our scissors and ra

lines. Lloyd A Adams.

Sunday School Convention.
The Fifth Semi-Annual Convention,
6t the Sunday School workers, of the
87th District of Georgia State Son,
day School Association, comprised
of the counties of Ware, Pierce, Cof
fee, Charlton and'Berrien, was held
at Alapaha Georgia on last Saturday
and Sunday. A large and enthusias
tic gathering of delegates was in at
tendance, to review the Sunday School
work in the District for the past six
months and map out plans for the fu
ture, and to learn more of the Sun
day School work in all its various
and important phases. During the
Convention addresses were delivered
by Rev. W.. H. Scuggs, ofWaycross;
Rev. H. P. Myers, of Fort Valley;
Rev. J. R. Foster, of Boston, Sunday
School Missionary; Prof. S. P. Set
tles, of Waresboro and C. I. Stacy, of
Brunswick.
In this connection, we would say
that our people in this section do not
seem to appreciate the value of united
efforts in the way of Sunday School
Associations, Conventions, etc., by
which an interchange of ideas is had,
and an enthusiasm created, which
can be brought about in no other
way. We have here a County 'Bun-
day School Association, but it seems
to he dormant or dead. Can’t it be
revived? .
Our Trip to the Mountains.
As a member of the Georgia Press
Association, the writer took an ex
tended trip the past week from Ma
rietta, Ga. to Murphy, N. C., over the
Marietta and North Georgin Rail
road. A description of which we
propose giving our readers in two ar-
treles, the first of which-will appear
to morrow. Onr trip really covered
a distance of 420 miles hnd reached
from the sea to the tops of the great
mountains. In that vast expanse of
territory we naturally saw much that
was interesting and instructing.

He chose for his text the words,
“Except the Lord 1 Hid the house,

had said that cltieB ' *ere the “con
gestion of poputatio ”—in short, a
disease—everything-i fishing to some
given point. This % aying he dis
proved, showing that over since the
world began, even as far backus the
days of thenephew <i Adam, people
built cities that we: i the deposito
ries of wealth, knowledge, literature,
etc,, and were really j scessary to the
growth of every conn! y. The speak

around him; that j hen wo invite

to a part of Chicago, where there
lived 50,000 people, comparatively
withoiit the preaching of the gospel
the population having grown faster
than the moral and religious advance
ment. Seaport cities were especially
in peril on this point, for they were
not only cosmopolitan in growth and
ideas, but in sin as well, and that this
was especially true of Brunswick.
The next peril, he said, was in.
temperance—170 votes to a saloon
was about the rule in all sections
North and West, but it remained for
Brunswick to out step them all—hav
ing only 64 votes to every saloon
This was based on a population of
8,000 people and an estimate of one
voter to every five citizens.
Another peril was the fact that
the evangelical churches were losing
their hold upon the people, for Sun
day excursions and amusements lead
the people away, and that as proof
of this fact, if everybody should at
tend church there would not bo seat
ing capacity for them.
Another peril was the seculariza
tion of the Sabbath as shown by the
many things done upon that day in
the shape of work that are not in
harmoDy with that command that
went fourth years ago from the great
law giver: “Remember the Sabb&th
day to keep it holy, etc.”,
Still another peril was the great
tevdency, especially of the sea coast,
to social gaieties.
Bnt he was not discouraged. He
read God in everything—the passing

cloud. Grand opportunities, bo said,

Congressional convention for June

have for a long time been held in Sa

this year the convention will be held
about sLx weeks earlier than usual,
The change is made, through Mr.
Norwood’s influence, in order that he
may complete his canvas and return
to Washington before Congress ad
journs. About half the counties in
the district have chosen delegates,
and the delegations are 'about equal
ly divided between Capt. W. W. Gor
don and Mr. Norwood. The strength
of tbe latter lies in 'the country and
the probability that he will, in case
of anything like a deadlock parry
the counties west of the Altamaho,
puts him in the lead in v ,he race.

The Prohibition Programme.
The Prohibitionists have decided
to make prohibition a political issue
in this State, and next fall they wilt
nominate candidates for the Legisla
ture in each county. Their purpose,
as declared at the meeting of their
association in Atlanta, on Tuesday,
is to enact a prohibitory law against
the manufacture and sale of intoxica
ting liquors, In Texas and Tennes
see Inst year the prohibitionists of
those States submitted to the people
a constitutional amendment, which
provided for the suppression of the
liquor traffic, bnt tho Prohibitionists
of Georgia are determined to see if
they cannot accomplish their object
by means' of a statue. In view of the
fact that more than two-thirds of the
counties have adopted,prohibition,- it
must be admitted that they have a
very good chance for carrying out -
their programme. If they nominate
good men w^io are Democrats, .and if
they are united, they will, in all prob
ability, control the next Legislature.

Out of nearly twenty million dol
lars appropriated by the river and
harbor bill, Georgia gets only $305,-
650. We life confident that our rep
resentatives did the best they could
to secure a fair share of the appropri
ations for Georgia, hut the figures
show that they did not succeed. It
is Georgia’s misfortune that she haS-
no member of the river and .harbor
committee. States which have di
rect representation in that committee
get the lion’s share of the money de
voted to the river apd harbor im-,
provement. Our Senators will en
deavor to have the Georgia items in
creased, but it is doubtful <f they can
add much to them. Tbe bill is al
ready so large that its. friends are
afraid it will bo vetoed.- It undoubt
edly has many objectionable features,
and wastes money in Borne places
while it leaves others without proper
appropriations. The bill is not past
all danger yet.
