THESE Will WN
(a WORD ABOUT THE MEN WHO WILL
GET THERE NEXT WEDNESDAY)
At the head of the Sheriff's tick
et stands James P. McConnell,
then where there is no better nor
cleverer man ever asked for office
in Floyd county a man of sterling
integrity good business qualities
and possesing the most confidence
of all classes of our people
He is cool and conserva
tive in all his words and
actions—Sober and though Jul for
the public good and equinomical
in all public expenditures. He has
made a most excellent record as
deputy sheriff for the past four
years he is in everj r sens* qua ifie 1
for the office he asks at the hands
of the people es Floyd County,and
they are sure to acknowledge his
merit by giving to him and his dep
uties a large majority of the votes
of Floyd county on January the
2nd 1895
J. D. Turner, the senitor deputy
is widely known and highly appre
ciated as a public spirited citizen
and a good and faithful officer.
He is of, and connected with some
of the very best families of this
part of the state. He has already
made a most efficient deputy and
after next Wednesday will contin
ue, for two years, to add new hon
ors to the office he has so well and
capably filled for the last 6 years.
Clip Williamson, the Junior
Deputy is well and favorbly known
all ever the county, but better
known in the city of Rome as a
strong, progressive and brainy
young man. —He has filled with
honor and ability every trust he
has heretofore been confided with.
Ha has served two terms on the
City Council, and is at present a
member of the School Board of
the City, and when elected to the
responsible position of Deputy
Sheriff will not disappoint his
friends.
R. L. Foster the hustling, and
most fleet-footed of all the candi
dates in th* race, ha* astonished
th* most sangvine of his friends,
at the skill and ability, with whioh
he has managed his campaign. He
ha* »imply raised a land —slide
which will give him one of the
largest majorities ever given any
young politition of Floyd county.
Mr. Foster is the youngest son of
the late W. G. Foster of thia coun
ty, and nephew of the Hon. J. C.
Foster, Chairman of the Board es
County Commissioner. He ha*
much keen forsight and indomi ta
bl* energy of hi* father, and he
has made a host of strong* and in
fluential friends among all classes
of the people by his quiet sensable
and gentleman deportment among
the masses. He is well qualified to
fill the office and will be elected on
next Wednesday by an overwhelm
ing majority
John J. Black the best tax collet
tor in the state of Georgia will for
th* first time in twenty years have
a walk —over for the office. And
when w* come t* consider the Sig
nal victory he has gained at this
ptrticular time, bis elections de
mand* more than a passing notice.
For mor* than a scor* of years
be has faithfully and efficiently
filled'he office cf Tax Collector
passing through all kind* of politi
cal combination, that have arisen
rand Jury Rooms, and in oth
er rooms of closed doors a* well as
th so formed and planed on the
•treat* and business hou*ed of fh*
county. Through all of ihe ßß
changes and criticism* Mr. Black
ba* coolly and euccessfutly carved
his way, until he find* him*elf the
h*ro of ultimate victory. Mo man
bat one of business tack, political
skill and a high order of common
sei.Be could have gained *o signet
victory. And if J. J. Black doe*
not hold the < fflee of Tax Collec
tor as long as b* wants it, it wii
n*t because he dot,* not deserve it.
A Voter.

but life was extinct. 1 bs dead man

AN AGED COUPLE
Robbed of $6,009, They Claim
Through Hypnotic Aft
Kokomo, Ind., Dec. 29. —A re
markable case of alleged hypno
tism, in which $6,000 in cash is
involved, entered the Court* here
to-day. The plaintiff' is Mrs. Nan
cy Trimble, of Greensburg, Deca
tur County, aged 78 years,, who
lives alone with her husband, aged
82. Theaa n d couple are, os-were,
quite wealthy, and they Ixve no
children.
The defenanta ar* George and
Edward Trimble, distant relatives
of the plaintiff s husband. They
reside in Tipton County, 20 miles
South of here.
The complaint contains the fol
lowing allegations: In 1889 plain
tiff had SI,OOO on deposit in bank.
The defendants, by good promises,
borrowed the money.
That in January, 181*4, the de
fendants, learning that the old
people had $5,000 on deposit in the
First National Bank at Greensburg
made a second trip there and
sought to get control of this hand
some sum.
That by the weakness of mind
and body of the old people and
the Buperior mental strength of
the defendants, th* former yeildtd
drew $5,000 from th* bank and
turned it over to the defendant*
without security of any kind
Th* defendants urged that th*
old couple had not long to live,
and advised that they tnrn the
money over to them and they
would tak* car* of them the re
mainder ©f their days, promising
to put the money in real estate,
give the old couple first mortgage
nnd 6 per cent interest.
They bought no real estate, gave
no security whatever, and gave
them nothing for support. The
old pecpl* have not the scratch of
a pan to show for their vanished
$6,0C0, except an agreement to
pay them $360 per year for sup
port and this promise was like the
others, unkept. That th* defend
ants, after getting their finger* on
the money, returned home aad
divided the swag with another
brother. The case will b* up for
trial this term.
LADIES WHITECAPPED.
Plain City, Ohio, December 29.
—Three lady teachers of Union
County, received white-cap notic*
to resign at once, or their sohool
house* would be burned, and them
selves severely handled. No atten
tion was paid to them, until one
of the houses was burned and an
attempt made upon another. Th*
teachers are much alarmed, but
are still holding their positions.
It is thought that an unsuccessful
applicant for the schools is at the
bottom of the affair.
