Once Again

| We are prepared to assert facts
that are already fixed in the minds
of many of the largest buyers in
Allen county, who are convinced
that it pays to buy of merchants
who pay cash for their goods.
Every dollars worth of goods
that come into our house are paid
for as soon as they are opened and
found to be correct. In this way
we can save profit out of our
cash discounts. Merchants buying
on credit lose the discounts, be-
sides paying much more for their
goods.
An examination of our stock can
do you no harm, but it will prove
to you that as long as forced sales
exist and bankrupt stocks can be
bought, when cash is offered, just
so long can Good Staple Goods
be sold at prices from 10 to 20 per
cent below regular rates.
When in town give us call, and
if we fail to prove what we state to
be facts, we will not ask you to
buy.

The closing exercises of the MARKETS.

Friday night at the Court House. The ex'

Rev Dr. Buttolph. 1t was stated by the
teachers that the pupils who were to declain
were those who only volunteered as it had
not been made obligatory, consequently on

responded in the order named

On last Thursday morning nj the con
Wet camps of the Marietta and North Geor-
sia Railroad, near Jasper, Pickens county,
negro convict named Monroe Frederick
stubbornly refused to go to work out on the
grade He was allowed to remain and
work about the camps. Next morning he
still refused to obey orders and swore he
didn't intend to work and the squad went
out without him The Superintendent was
informed of the negro's INSTRUMENTATION and
he told Frederick that his defiant conduct
couldn't be tolerated and he must so to
work The negro was sent out with three
others, one 4 white man, and note was
sent to the whipping boss, Mr.: Griggs, TO
chastise them Three of them submitted 70
the punishment, but Frederick swore that
not man in the camps should whip him,
and he went down the railroad embankment
and picked up a shovel and threw out sew
eral shovels Of dirt and then stopped, rest
ing the shovel on his shoulder Mr.. Ike
Young and Mr.. Dewitt Green, guards fol-
lowed him with view to bringing him
back The negro raised his shovel and
threatened to kill the first one that APP
preached him. Nothing daunted, Young
approached him, when the hegro's shovel
descended on Young's left arm, The second
blow he received ON his right arm, but the
third blow the shovel struck Young back
of the head, knocking him to the ground
While on his knees, the negro rushed upon
Young and was in the act of striking him

with his shot gun, the load lodging in the

The Free Press and Mr. Stephens

Eds. JOURNAL-The Carersvie Free Press
is disconnected by the Stephens Smith letter
and charges that it was Brown, Colqui't and
the managing editor of the Constitution talking
to the people of Georgia through Mr.. Stephens
and that he (Stephens) will see the mistake lac
made in due time. And paradoXical AS 1t may
appear, he says the letter IN tact was written
by an Independent to save the Organized dem
ocracy of the State. If Stephens occupies the
position assigned him by the Free Press then
every Independent in the State should repn
date the man aud his utterances, for he is no
longer the great commoner, the upright states
man the patriotic leader, but demagogue and
political tricks Of the first water

by Joe Brown to save the organized demoeia-
