JESUP, C a. April 5. 1001.
What we need now is a new court¬
house Judge Bennett endorsed
this move at the last terip of court.
Bonds should be issued for $20,000
and a handsome edifice erected,
something in keeping with the
other buildings now just comple¬
ted. T*he building now used is
inadequate for the needs of the
officials, besides is old and delap
idated. It would be an irrepara¬
ble loss were our records destroyed
by fire, as has recently been the
fute of Twiggs County, Let us
provide means to prevent such a
catastrophe in Wayne,
We have reipamed silent on the
railroad question until something
authentic could be stated. It is
•now an assured fact that Jesup
will have two new railroads. The
charter was granted chiojvp ck to
Rhejgsup, "St. Mary’s & Jackson¬
ville which will be a direct rmite
to Jacksonville which will be a
direct’route to Jacksonville from
Jeaup via. St. J/ary’s. The Plant
System’s short line to Jacksonville
via. Fo.kston will also be built at
an early date. With these valu¬
able acquisitions, Jesup cannot
help from building up and we pre¬
dict that ere long we will have a
city second to none in South Geor¬
gia, '•
T here is as much democracy in
ft man who will announce for ux
receiver m a populist paper sub
jbbt to the ricinooratio primary,
when he could have announced in
a democratic paper f6r the saute
price, as there if gratitude in a
municipal government that would
award the town printing to a pa¬
per thftt opposes them, in prefer¬
ence to one Who supported them
because the latter refused to enter
into a’grab game lor cheap print¬
ing at 87^ cts. a hundred—(Wayne
County News April ttth. 1900 )
The town printing for 1901 has
just been awarded our opponents,
they submitting a bid of 30c u
hundred. Evidently our munici¬
pal government’s policy is to fa¬
vor the opposing paper or to oli
tain their printing gratis. Doubt¬
less npxtyear this will be offered
them by ihe Sentinel. In my opin¬
ion the town council is ‘“running
with the hare and barking
with the hounds.
The same thing might be said of
om democratic officials, merchants
«nd business men, who give “ ll
tbeir advertising tys well as print

COMMUNICATION
January 28th, 1901.
Bill says lie, Mary I got a T.tlle
business over to Mr Hickinbot
toms to see if I can trade him out
en that dun eollard cow of bi°en
Art I axed him what he wanted
with that cow no how an further
*
more she aint worth mutch an be¬
sides she is only a stripper and if
I was you I woudent bother with
her.
Well says bill 1 thought OS
Hickenbottom was our neighbor
an as I can make a little oute n
him by getting that are cow,
1 can trade before he sees Mr. Bu
gall As Hickenbottom said a«
how I could have her for $18.00
and Buga 11 told ire this morning
IhH he’d give m- $25.00 for her
But Bill t.-ii dont i you think Dick
*nbottom orter no what Buga]!
will give for t^at are cow now
) that seemB right to me that is the
way one neighbor should do by
another. ♦
, So it is Mary, ltut you forgit he
aint our neighbor, unless we can
usy him and I like Bro. flicken
bottom sa want to neighbor with
powerful I bad just now, and be¬
sides if I make that are trade T
will get that calico dress I promis¬
ed you.
Lord sake! but don I want that
dress Bill, after thinking about
hit I recon we had better go.
but understand: we are just going
a to visit our neighbor.
Thets the idea, now you are a
talking, an so we started an when
we got to the foot of the moun¬
tain , where the road runs just be¬
twixt hit an the river, k> an benqld
there was a big rock a lying right
in the road, righljeurs'ap dab in
the road an there whs n hull lot
of men a working at hit to move
hit outen the way, but they could
just lift hit up by prying on both
sides but could not get hit outen
the way.
Bill, says he, mary 1 vow that
nary one of (hem galoots have ev¬
er been to congress.
Why what makes you think so?
can. I.
Well you see hit is sorter this
way in Congress, when they find
a rock, stump orsOmebtg fellow
in their way to keep them from
passing a bill they work with him
' while an if he dont move they
put wheelee under him and then
they can role him outen the way
of course the bigger the fellow the
more wheels it takes .
About that time along
our member from Spoon Hollow,
an s-tre enough the first thing lie
said was, why dont you put wheels
under bit, and as Bill was interest
ed in getting by that air rock, he
must help with the wheels, An
when hit was outer the way our
member lowed as that was tbe
way they did in congress, but said
it was mighty nic as hard move
that air rock, as hit was to in¬
crease the standing army, Kilt
he lowed as they had u bigger < b
stickle to move, yes he said obsti
eles, what ever that meens
r»eb I rccon Meil he sa/d
how hit was so large he thought if
they moved hit atall that hit
would take a power of wheels. and
he thought that they would have
to move Clay, before they got by
They do say as how they have
tried to put wheeles under him,
