18 FACTIONAL LINEN AT THE
STATE’S EXPENSE.
From the Augusta Chronicle.
There are, still, other people—

who see in this wliole matter mere-

when you come to think of it.
A pretty ^high-priced proceeding,
too—for the State. The legislature
y has been in session nearly a month
' already and,.outside of a few local
and unimportant bills, has wasted
most of its time in wrangling over
the McLendon matter, at a cost of
about <1,500 a day.
And there are some Joe Brown
partisans who say, "Let them wash
it—it needs it.” And they refuse
to worry at the outcome, one way
other; believing that the

‘airing” that is being
the holier-than-thou
the “divine call”
Bat'the trouble is, there is such
a "big wash”; the deeper they dig
into the Hoke Smith basket, the
more dirty Hqen do they drag out.
m There’e the Hon. Quyfa cast-off-
f 'saceusion robes, to start - : with—and
his appear to be alwut the cleanest
of the lot. For, as is generally ad
mitted, he did go to to work and
study-up on the questions before
him; with the result that he came
to the oonelneion that the “port
rate” plank of the Macon platform
was a "gold brick”—and said so.
Althougn it ie right here—and in
other spots—that he may he

much.” But that he was honest

man with an open mind doubts.

"attorney’s fees” paid to him on
Hoke Smith’s official

at a legislator; all in dear
distinct violation of the State
law which says: '
"Nor shall any senator or repre

such, he circled by the General As

ernor, either with or without the
advice and consent of the senate, t >

But the thousand'or so dollars
paid out of the State’s treasury to

Smith just before the rollers were

“bag-’o-shells,’’ as the saying goes
compared witli what the retiring
governor did for his chief bugle man
just a few hours before he went out
of office. Mr. McLendon has shown
that almost at the very moment
political rigor mortis set in, the
Hon. Hoke, still governor for a few

tract with the Hon. "Whoopee,”

something like <40,000 in fees by
representing the State in "back
tax” proceeding against certain
railroads.

WLKINQ’S NEW DISCOVERY
111 tartly Slop That Utah.
CM Dedication.
EHitor Courier: —
On Sunday morning July 25th,
after a pleasant drive through the
country, we arrived at the thriving
and progressive town of Center, in
our adjoining county of Jackson.
The distance friun Athens, for
the greater part, over a good road,
passing through a fine farming sec
tion, can be accomplished in little
overall hour.
The ride itself was both invig
orating and delightful; the day
ideal; the temperature being cool
and bracing, more like a fall than
a summer’s day.
Center has a natural location of
such beauty; its level expanse of
clean white sand, interpersed by
lovely cool and shady groves anti
surrounded hy fertile farms, renders
it singularly fitted for the site.of a
town, whoso growth within the last
decade has indeed been phenominal.
Reaching the hospitable mansion
of Mr. C. C. Chandler, its wide
awake mayor,, where a cordial
welcome awaited us, we found the
hour for holding their weekly Sun
day School was at hand, so pro
ceeded to the Presbyterian church,
where a most enjoyable and
interesting Sabbath School service
was held. Not having visited this
place in a number of years, we
were greatly impressed at the won
derful transformation in this edifice
which through the earnest efforts of
its Sunday School superintendent,
coupled with its corps of able
teachers ami other Christian workers
had been rcmodlcd, painted uud
otherwise beautified, as well as freed
from debt, ready for its dedication
to the Lord upon that day.
The Sunday School exercises be
ing over, after an impressive read
ing of the 8th Chapter of 1st Kings,
the pastor, Rev. Mr. McPhail,
preached an appropriate and beau
tiful dedication sermon taken from
Romans, XII Chapter 1st verse 1 —
"I-beseech you therefore brethren,
hy tho mercies of God, tlijt ye
present your bodies, a living sacri
fice, holy, acceptable unto God,
whioh is'your reasonable service,”
This gentleman having recently
accepted the pastorate of this church
preached this, his first sermon here,
to a largo and attentive '’engroga
tion.
Judging from the skillful and
eloquent manner with which he
hopdeld his subject, the people of
Center and vicinity have many rare
treats in store for them.
The music was excellent, being
finely rendered hy the choir under
the skillful leadership of Miss
Chandler, the organist. At the
conclusion of this most appropriate
and impressive service, we returned
to the residence of our host and
hostess, where a most bountiful and
elegant repast had lieen provided
and which was served to numerous
guests, beneath the spreading
branches of the stately oaks sur
rounding their lovely home.
After a most enjoyable day of
recreation and rest, the rapidly
deccnding sun, warning us of the
close of this beautiful Sabbath, we
reluctantly hid our friends adieu,
with fondly cherished hopes, that
many such bright days might come
our way.

that they do not want him too close

Ski far, indeed, has the hobgoblin

the Burlington Free Press bold

“If the Government officials

presence of so large a body of ne

adds: “A Southern town could
