County Commissioner Dobey.
This gentleman made trip last week,
through wind and weather. great deal
OF wind and weather-to inspect couple |
of bridges in the Meeting Street section.
He reports said bridges to be in by no
means so bad condition as he had ex-
pected. Commissioner Dobey has al
ready demonstrated that he is not afraid
OF hard work
Ex-Commissioner Edison.
From the last annual Report Of Ex-
School Commissioner Edison, we copy the
following admirable paragraph "Some
provision should be made for local taxa
ton, thereby enabling each School Dis
trict to Keep up school for at least eight
months in the year. Teachers should be
paid better salaries. Such salaries should
be prescribed by law, and should range in
accordance with grade Of certificate"
Col. John r. Abney.
This popular gentleman was among us
for day or two last week, and we chatted
with him little concerning the Southern
Land Loan Association, in which he is
one OF the prime movers. Beyond what
we have already lately published, howev-
Ell, Col. Abney said he had but little To
tell ua. 1t would seem that the perma-
nent organization and practical workings
of the Association are matters Of consid-
cradle doubt.

to withhold his services when they can
further any good cause. We know he is
having pleasant time.

buy Diamond Dust and Sibley's Garden
and Flower Seeds. The Dust and the
Seeds, however, have no connection with
each other. As for the Dust, 90 to Cobb
and find out what it is good for And If
Cobb is not eloquent enough, then come
10 us. and we will unlimber our tongue in
its praises in the most unbridled manner.
