As will be seen elsewhere in this is
sue that 1 have sohl the Times to T.
A. Havron; loi reasons best known to
myself. In making my how to the
readers of the 'Limes and the public I
do so with regret, and thank them foi
the liberal patronage they have given
the paper. I have made enemies while
i nning the paper, only wit It those who
are natural horn lools and newspaper
deadbeats, and I don’t deny tlmt I am
K ! ad of it. I hope the paper will suc
ceed as long as it is not run in the in
terest of cliques and for office. It has
been controlled by the undersign
who only spoke the sentiments of him
self. I have,l think,succeeded in es
tablishing a ncwspaj ei in Dade county,
T. A .1 MAJORS
T might write you a long salutatory
address, but I deem it unnecessary
The c li foi ials that will a-pear in the

tell you my view of life, and for my

by my works.

Ihi mint iin wit t between Fain and

is not the object ot our uaper, we lo
not propone to take sides. But such
« thing as not having a preference is
hardly possible. All know something
otJudson <J. (Jlenieiits position, ami
in fact if he were not nominated* and
elected, it would not be because he
is in any way unworthy ot *.ho po

In the early part of May a storm
swept over Wall Btreot. For a short
time there was almost a panic in
stocks. Everybody wished to sell, and
nobody dared to bny. As a conse
quence the prices in railroad and other
stocks went tumbling down with a
crash.
Had it not been lor two circumstan
ces at the time, this disturbance in
Wall street would have been sufficient
to cause a repetion of the great disas
ter 0f1873. One was, that stocks had
been declining so long that conserva
tive men had not beeu large purchasers,
and were not, in a condition to he ruin
ed by a sudden drop in prices. The
other, that general business was on a
sound basis.
The general prediction ol Gen. Neal
Dow that prohibition will soon become
an accomplished fact in ail English
speaking countries is regarded as too
sanguine and extravagant. It would

the times that an enlightened public

will greatly leduce the extent ol the
evil. At the present rate of progress

RAM DOM THOUGHTS
TO TER WEEKLY TIMES.]
I uiulerstanded that T A J Majors
ii going to quit the staff ed the Times
for other and perhaps gieener pasture.
While we wish yon all the “good
luck” that could befall a young man,
with health, strength and promise;
we...milst .say,, ve will mira you.
Those of us, who have been from time,
sending you our “ramdom thoughts”
tor publication and have received at
tention are hound to let turned to you
our gratitude lor such past favors
1 do earnestly hope that von will
have better success in the new home
to which yon are going than yon have
ever met with in Dade. And now
you must not forget the Times, but
sometime, let uh hoar from you and
your whereabouts. And light here
i will say what I have thought, that
it Ed L Sutton would write a line for
‘‘our D ide paper’’ now and then it
would be read with interest by many
However often our paper has changed
its name and publishers. \v® have ever
been a constant aud interested reader
We wish it much success under its
present administration. May it live
and become a fixture.
How sad we felt upon learning of
Mr ABisoiPs death! We extend to
family our heartfelt sympathy, and we
know we utter the sentiment of many
a heart in Dade when we say, “How
we will Trias him;” and his scat in the
churdh, (here is none to fill.
How well do we remember the first
exhortation we ever heard him make
years ago in “Johnsons Crook.” It
was soul stin ing, and made our hearts
burn within us, and the lost one at
Trenton last summer is not forgotten.
He had an earnestness about him
which few men have. We can but say
in our bereavement “How blessed the
righteous when ho dies.” I hope some
one fully competent and knowing all
the circumstances 'vil! give ns a more
extended account cl his sickness and
death.
I believe the storm at the Fawn is
a bunt over—hope so at least lor the
good feeling concerned. Annt Pollie
has ventured out and I guess the dan
ger is all over. She think the “sis*
tern” ought to write oftener. Remem
ber Aunt, that it takes a fertile brain
like yours and Bill Arp’s to write »
readable letter every week with uoth«i
ing to write. Just “say on” and re
member we are listening, and I have
heard to be a good listener, is some
accomplishment. While we may have
regretted some of tlio letters from the
Fawn, we have .been very much
amused over two others that have ap
peared -in the Times lately. Too me
“blowing their own horn.” If 1 were
in a paying business and did not want
advertise 1 would give (ha editor five
dollars to givl%ie a puff’, I think 1
would H I Cere those. A. J. T,
