Laing's cheap cash store.
Mr. James E. Newberrv will
occupy the residence on Lee street
next year known as the Hoyl lot.
The blessed rain has come at
last and the farmer and merchant
alike are both happy.
Joe Laing is selling the cheap
est goods in town, at Roberts
Bros. old stand.
Mr. M. G. Statham and family
have arrived and taken up their
residence in our city.
The fees and perquisites of the
city officers for the new wear are
to remain the same as those of the
present.
If our farmers will turn their
attention now to the making of
compost it will be all the better for
them.
If you want something nice for
a Christmas or New Year present
send to Welch & Agar, ALBANY,
Ga. They can certainly suit you.
Mr.. W. A. James is the youngest
alderman that Dawson ever had.
But, for all that, he will make q
good one.
1t is gratifying to know that our
farmers are giving more attention
to the shedding and penning of
their cattle. 1t will pay to do it.
Mr.. Charles Deubler's re-elec-
ton as an alderman Of the city was
compliment most worthily be-
slowed.
AT CosT! Roberts Bros. en-
tire stock is selling at cost rapid
ly. Come before they are all
gone.
The exhibition, at Bronwood,
has been postponed until after
Christmas. We hope, and believe,
that this will only insure it a
more brilliant success.
Those of our people who have
the means to spare should be will
ling at all times to aid the suffer-
ing and the poor. Our county is
full OF people who need help.
Messrs. Seal h Ke8sler, OF Bal
timore, were in the city last week,
They are probably the best known
guano men in the South, and, GER
tainly, the cleyerest.
, Don't wait to SOW oats; and don /
fail to give them heavy coating
of cotton seed. A good crop Of
oats will be sadly needed in this
country another year.
A. J. Baldwin & Co. have just
received a beautiful lot Of Dado
Window Shades. In point of
beauty and elegance they can not
be surpassed. Prices low down.
Col. j. L. James will still contin-
ue to perform the duties of clerk
of the City Council while Mr.. T.
r. Thornton will carry the city S

The porkers slaughtered in this
section on last Saturday were le-
gion. What blessing to our
people that they have at length
removed their smoke-houses tc
their homes.
For Fine Christmas Whistles
call on me. [ will sell you cheap
er and better Whiskey than any
body. Call, sample my stock and
be convinced. Il. GEESLIN.
The overcoat we advertlzed last
week, has been found and deliver
ed to the owner, but our Honora-
BILE Ordinary, who lost his from
his hall, few days ago, has still
to shiver in the cold.
We met three different gentle
men in our city on last Saturday
all looking for dwelling houses to
rent. Not one of them found a
house to suit. This tells the tale
whether or not Dawson is grow
ing, eh?
We learn from one of our J,
P's., residing in the county, that
there is an unusual amount of
litigation going on at this time
The most of it is brought by guano
agents.
The amount of "raffiing" going
on in our city is immense. There
are some people who number this
transaction along with games OF
gambling; but the boys claim that
the church set the precedent and,
therefore, there is no harm (?) III
it.
Welch & Agar, Albany, Ga.
don't believe in hard times, they
have an immense stock of goods,
especially in Toys, Fire Works
and Christmas Goods. Don't fail
