par t of the moral vineyard. Come at once. We will sei! goods at less than 30 cents on the dollar. Nothing in the
house above cost except Butterick’s patterns and contract corsets, which weare unable to control, everything
else shall go for what it will bring, nothing above cost.

Judge Maddox defeats Judge
Harris for the congressional
nomination by an almost clean
sweep, and will succeed himself
in congress for this district. The
lesson for ourselves and tho de
feated candidates, whose cause
we espoused, is that the step
ping stone to success is defeat.

Editor Stovall, of the esteemed
Savannah Press, says: “It is
safe to say that had the race
continued a month ’onger Mr
Berner would have sto >d a good
chance for the nomination, for
lie was breaking into Colonel t
i Candler’s strongholds very per
' ceptibly.” Evident!} Bro. Sto
vall intended- this -is a joke. • A
careful review of the returns
show that Candi 'ate B rm r did
not even “break in”» ‘o the'
stronghold of his own di-trict,
losing six of the ten counties in
the Sixth. Really, had the race
lasted a month longer the people
of Georgia would have made the
nomination of Mr. Candler
I unanimous.—Americus Times-
