We return thanks to our triends for getting the paper out last week. They done the best they knew how and all we have to say to the kickers is for them to attend strictly to their own business. During our absence last week the devil made way with“AuntPoilyV’ letter. At least we have been un able to find it since our return. We hop* “Aunt Polly” and our readers will excuse us for its non appearance. The time for city people to begin hunting rural retreats is at hand and our hotel keepers should com mence to mrke bits for their patron age. Enough could lie fiot Jout of Chattanooga to fill all the spare rooms in Trenton.

A casejwas disposed of lastJSatur day in the Justice court that has run the parties considerable in debt or cost, The original amount of suit was $22.50. The cost alone is now near three hundred dollars besides attorney fees. The plaintiff lost the case. It is cheaper to settle disputes outside of the court house. Those thinking that they hold the key to Trenton’s prosperity will wake up one of these fine mornings and find out that they have cut off their nose to spit* their face. Mor rison is going to be the coming place and Trenton will have to act the part of a third rate suburb. Dynamite men were here again this week. If our people intend to try and get the town on the road to prosperity they should encourage every man that visits the town to locate. We are not going to get what we want eveiy time and any enterprise that will employone man helps that much. Don’t drive the dynamite factory away.

It is said that the hotejsm New York are preparing to rob the peo ple that expect to attend ‘he cen tennial to be held in that city the' 30th of this month. Postmaster General Wannanm ker is firing out Democratic fourth class postmasters at the rate of one hundred and fifty per day. The rads are hungry for office. The Columbus Enquirer-Sun is one of the staunchest Democratic papers. It never lets a day pass what it show up the rottenness of the Republican party. It should be in every house. The fish in Yellow and 1 South rivers, in Rockdale county, are be ing destroyed by the use of dyna mite, The scoundrels using this stuff should be dealt with to the full extent of the law. The Chattanooga Times has this place on a big boom when there is nothing of it. Hewitt, formerly Morrison, three miles north of town is the place that is going to do the booming act. * It is rumored that Oklahoma is not the paradise that it was said to be, That is all on account of our not being able to get enought mon ey from our delinquents to carry us out there. Thus all our hopes are blasted. Russell Harrison, the son of his dad. is making an ass of himself. He should remember that the pa tience of the public will soon wear oat at his cou tinual noisy rantings about the condition of the white house. If his father cant stand the ants he can evacuate and the country will not be the loser thereby. Some ot the old Repuhlioan leaders in the South don’t believe in the Presidents idea to build up a strictly white protective tariff Re publican party in the South. We fail to see the point of this so-called white Republican party any way. Tne name Republican has become synonymous of spoils and every thing dishonorable. No respectable southern born white man can af ford to affiliate with such a party. The Chattanooga Times should end its reporters to school again and learn them thegeographyof the country. Lookout and Wills val lies aie in different States and Trenton is in Lookout Valley and the boom in Wills. Henry Grady, of the Atlanta Constitution, has succeeded raising about thirty-six thousand dollars towards building a Confederate Home to be erected in or near At lanta. This is the crowning act of Grady’s busy life and hid name will be handed down to posterity as one of the few relics, of the late civil war, who are ever mindful of those w’hose losses in the great struggle, both physical and pecuni ary rendered them, in a measure* destitute and dependent upon their more fortunate. Some of our property owners are waking up at last. This should have been long ago. Now let them go to work and try to induce out siders to come among us. The people of this county are well ac quainted with the resources and the kind of people we want to settle among us is the New Englanders and others who have the almighty dollar to spend. We want their dollars as bad as we want them and there is not a bit’of use of denying it. We have the mineral and they have the money. We want the money. The people here know that the resources of Trenton and Dade county cannot be excelled in quality or quantity and now all should make an effort to get capi- tal to locate at Trenton. This way of every man being for him self and the devil for all is abom inable. When this spirit changes Trenton will prosper. Go to work fdr your town and county people. The men that want to invest here are not a set of aft fools and you just as well get off of that Blgh horse you have been 1 Property owners shoulwpuild a few mure residences for \pnt. If the town ever grows the home peo people have got to commence push ing their town to the front.

Bennett offer to give to any one a quarter acre lot that will agree to erect a dwelling on it not to cost less than four hundred dollars. This is, we think liberal inducements .to those Jwanting a home. The only stipulation is that parties excepting the offer will have to commence building inside of three months.

WILDWOOD ENTERS HER PLEA FOR MORE M IL TRAINS A Snake With Sixteen Rattle* Killed at Wl dwood-A Runaway Team- Trying to Buld a School by Popular Subscription, Etc, Wildwood, Ga., April 17.—Since •‘Uncle Sam” has got sour and just gives us one mail a day we receive vour paper very late. We wonder how fur it has been sometimes it looks so travel worn. As I am about to ask what we have done to merit this treatment some one sug gest that we did not vote for the right man last November. not. But I would sug est that our member of Congress be interro gated on the subject. But it would be of no avail I think as Mr. Brown is up there too and the little Vlountain Colt could not cope with such a largo boss. What do they care any way for us little moun tain “sang diggers” so long as they have the approval of city dudes, and the city dudes wants fast mail and our roads want more money. This is clearly shown by the de portment of the Chattanooga Times men. The Times is a good paper and can bawl louder than Baatam’s quadruped when Chattanooga is in terested. Whoop ’em up Jack. We are only mice but we can c>*rry the dirt from under the wall dis crimination and ma3*be it will fall some time. Mr. Bud Taylor has been with us for a day or two. Mr. J, E. Pat terson is taking subscription to build a school house. We are sure he will succeed for one man worth five thousand dollars signed one of them. We had no school last year because we had no house. Can’t some Trenton man show the “ban ner honr to do things in the way of charity. Oh yes some one will say a “croaker” is running down his set tlement but we say investigate. We will soon see crates of nice strawberries being shipped to mar ket from this place. WILDWOOD WAKBLINGB. A Btf Snake Killed—Sabbath School Organized—Other News. Wildwood, Ga., April 17.—Dr. Deakins is able to be about again. Plenty of rain the past few days. No Sunday school last Sunday owing to the inclemency of the weather.

They had a very en joyable time but had very poor success in capturing any of the finny tribe. Walter Deakins as us ual was the life of the company, * What a monster.” “Isn’t ne a big one.” “Never seen such a large one before.” These are a few of the many remarks as we heard as we came up to a crowd that had gathered around one of the largest rattle snakes we ever seen. It was fully six feet long and had sixteen rattles. The monitor causedconsiderable trouble before it was killed. While Ed S m iin ami Cicero Johnson were doing some hau ing wrhen they discovered the snake and both jumped off of the wagon to kill it and left the team standing. The snake ran Ixdweea the team, which becatwo frightened began running. Both drivers being on the ground and the team began un hitched they were at liberty to go where they pleased. They ran about one mile before bitting anything. The wagon was badly demolished and the team injured to some extent.
