A newspaper, if it has any brains, ;
conscience and muscle back of it, .
must continually decide between do
ing its duty and injuring its pocket.
In any position but that of editor the
public is able to separate the indi
vidual home from the collective citi
zen. But if an editor does not pie tse
them it is at his pockets the)’ aim.
Thus it is the newspapers learn who
their friends are. The man reads a
newspaper and admires it all the year ।
around, yet gives his business sup-;
port to some other concern, is not a ]
friend to the former newspaper. Ad
miration ajone will- not run a news
paper. There are too many men who
exect an editor to slave in defense of
their pet notions and hobbies, advo
cate their views against the strongest
opposition and coolly withhold their
business support, by which alone a
country newspaper can live.
Talk about a paper having a public
duly to perform and an editor having
to work for his pinciple is cheap
when others stand back and extend
a luke-warm neutrality. —Seaford

this artificial feed for their soil in
broken doses, a portion at time of
planting and the remainder at the
second and third plowings, which is
the best plan, as the spring rains
will not then leach all of the good
qualities, and the second and third
doses will do the ciops more good.—
Sandersville Progress.
This appears to us to be a good
idea, and it might be well for the
farmers of every county to emulate
this plan. It cannot injure the
crops. Suppose you try it, and no
doubt you will reap wonderful bene
fits from this plan.’
Writing Up The News.
One of the county correspondents
of The Adams Enterprise writes to
that paper as follows,
‘•Sunday fast was meetiu’ day—
The gospel we were breathin’;
A big collection taken up:—
(I think it Twas for the heathen.)
“ i'he howlin’ heathen get the best
Os everything, Lord knows; '
They do not need much money—
They wear so little clothes.
“A saw mill blowed up Tuesday night—
It went in smoke an’ flame;
One man last a head an’ leg—
-1 did not learn his name.
“Ob, let us walk the narrow way
To glory,—have no fear
I think there is no more to say:
Good roads are needed here.”

GOA Daughtry from Macon was
in tbwn this week. We are always
glad to see George come around.
John II Densen of the Central
city was also in our town this week.
I took a stroll down in Mingo last
week and met Uncle Jake of Frog
Valley. It is a source of genuine
pleasure to me to read Uncle Jake’s
letters for I have often thought that
he was blessed With wisdom from on
high to be able to write such good
cheering letters, and I yet feel so,
but wlie.i I view his surrounding
neighbors, ns he is blessed with the
best neighbors I ever met, such as
J R Ellington, Uncle Braz Wynn,
Jesse P Thompson, L E Thompson
and others. A nice bill of fare for
spot cash with best c ish discounts as
those people in Mingo all seem to
have plenty ol money. I spent one
night with Mr Jesse P Thompson,
who is one of the cleverest, big-heart
ed gentlemen I ever met. He has
some 25 or 30 bales of cotton lying
under his gin-house, this being year
befre last crop, and I was told Mr
Thompson has ali his last year’s crop
yet which is still in the seed and has
not been ginned. So Mr Editor,
Uncle Jake’s surroundings no doubt,
prompt him with the good
spirit to write such good letters. So
come often Uncle Jake and tell us
all the news from Mingo and Frog
Valley.
With best wishes to all, I am
Uncle Tom.
