NEW YORK,
1888.

More people haveread THE sun during
the year just now passing than ever before
since it was "a, sa first printed. no other news,
has been bought and read in any year by
somany men and women.
We are credibly informed that people
ing reasons, among others:
Because its news columns present in at
trsctive form and with the greatest possi-
BILE accuracy whatever has interest for
humankind the events, the deeds and
misdeeds, tho wisdom, the philosophy, the
notable folly, the solid sense, the improv-
world at present revolving in space.
Because people have leorned that in its
remarks concerning persons and affairs
The SUN makes practice of telling them
the exact truth to the best of its ability
three hundred and siXty-five days in the
year, before election as we'll as after, about
in the face of dissent as plainly and fear
lessly as when supported by general APP
prevail. TIE Sun has absolutely no pur-
POSES 10 , sef ne fnr9 .n N a
good.
Because it is everybody s newspaper. No
ent to his Welfare and his rights. No man
is SO rich that it can allow injustice to be
done him. No man, no association of men,
is powerful enough to be exempt form the
strict application of its principles of right
Because in politics it has fought for q
dozen wears, Without 1ntermlSSlOn ana
sometimes almost alone among newspa-
| pers, the fight that has resulted in the re-
| cent overwhelming popular verdict against
| Robesonism and for honest government.
| No matter what party is in power, THE
SUN stands and will continue to stand like
| a rock for the interests of the people against
the ambition of bosses, the encroach-
mentS OF monopoliSts and the dishonest
schemes of public robbers.
]. Ali this is what we are told almost by onr
| friends. One man holds that THE SUN is
the best religious newspaper ever published,
because it's Christianity is undiluted with
cant. Another holds that it is the best
| republican newspaper printed, because it
| has already whipped half of the rascals out
| of that party, and is proceeding against the
| other half with undiminished vigOr. A
third belives to be the best maya zine of
| general literature in existence, because its
| readers miss nothing worthy of notice that
is current in the world of thought. So every
friend of THE sun DISCOVERIES one of its
many sides that appeals with particular
force to his individual liking.
| YOU already known TIE SUN, you will
observe that in 1888 it is little better than
THE SUN, you will find it to be mirror OF
all human activity, storehouse of the
choicest prducts of common sense and
Imagination, mainstay for tho cause OF
hon est government, sentinel for genuine
Jeffersonian Democracy, a scourge for
| wickedness of every species, and an un-
commonly good Investment for the coming
year.

FUN IN COURT.
Proof Positive that He was Son OF
Freedom.
rElbort SOUTH

- L.
The present Judge Hutchins, of the
Superior Court of the northeastern
judicial circuit Of Georgia, is the son of
Nathaniel Hutchins, SO well known by
many of'the older citizens of Gilbert as
one Of the cleverest men and ablest jur-
lists in Georgia. He was the predeces-
sor OF his son on the same bench now
occupied by Colonel Hutchins, Of
Gwinnett, and was popularity known
all through the upper portion of the
State. During the progress of the Sh.
perior Court at GAINESVILLE last week:
this amusing incident occurred, which;
was related to a New South scribe by
Senator Phil Davis:
Colonel Thurmond, of Athens, an at
torney, had an instrument of writing
in court, the validity of which needed
to be proven and which could only be
done BY the owner of the signature
found thereon swearing to the same.
The witness was called, aud an old
gray-haired man, who had lived over
three scorepyears and ten, took the
stand, and Colonel Thurmond handed
him the paper and asked
ssIs that your signature, sir?
The old gentleman looked at the
paper closely, and said
"Wa'al, I'll tell yer, lie Citing old,
and my eye-sight are not so good as it
wunst was, but If somebody will loan
roc a par of specks, praps 1 kin cipher
it out"
A pair Of glasses were furnished
him, and he scrutinizingly looked at
the document again.
"Well?" said the lawyer.
"The witness continued to peer at
the paper.
every well,' Colonel Thurmond
said again, waiting for the witness to
decide.
"Wa'al," said the old man, "that ar
is my fist"
"You can come down, sir" said the
lawyer.
But instead of "coming down." the
old man turned his eyes on Me Court,
and after gazing at him for some time,
he said;
chin's boy 2''
"He was my father" answered the
Court.
"Wa'al, give me yer hand, ledge,
kase loved yer daddy, and I is awful
| glad to see his boy a-followin' in his
foot-marks."
The Court gave the old man his
hand, and after shaking it heartily the
witness stepped from tho stand ant
started out of the court room. Wher
he had gotten out of the bar, and wa
about midway the hall, he turned
J abruptly about, and said in rather
|, loud tone of voice:
"Here-here's them ar specks, il an,
Of youns wants 'em.''
The court room was in an uproar {
Laughter. but the old man never smiled
as he returned the glasses and left tn
house.

a New York story Abroad.


Most men consider one wife at 9
time enough, and il they take Il
themselves more it is generally done
successfully, not simultaneously. The
excuse pleaded by wealthy merchant
who died recently at New York, the
husband of four living wives, ia that
he was Of an 'inquiring turn Of mind
and fond of experiments" lie
wished to test the respective merits oI
an English, French, German and
Spanish spouse, but as the law hin
dered him from satisfying his whim
openly, he devised plan for doing SO
secretly. To the day Of his death his
friends and acduaintances believed
him to be a bachelor, consequently
their amazement was extreme when,
on opening his will, they learned that
he was not only married, but very
much married indeed. He explained
in this document how he had been
married four times on the 10Th of
November, 1873, to a daughter
of England, France, Germany and
Spain. Each OF. the ladies believed
herself to be the only wife. the BRIDE
groom having told them all the same
story previous to the ceremouy-to
the eject that urgent business would
call him away for a period immedi
ately after it was concluded. The
four partners lived under different
names in four quarters Of the city,
and he spent his time among them
impartially, treating them. he says, all
alike, and unable to award the palm
Of excellence to any, for they we're all
equally good, estimable creatures. At
his death each widow reckoned on
enjoying in its entirety the fortune he
lett behind him, amounting to 81 200, +,
600. But to their collective dismay 1t
had to be divided into equal parts,
according to the terms of the testa.
tors will, which set forth that as he
had shared his heart among them dur
ing his lifetime, so he would divide
his money amongst them after his
death in order to prevent any jealousy
or heart burning.

single county in the State where il
has given satisfaction, save 10 those
localities where the people prefer bad
roads. No general law will suit every
locality. A law that would suit Shelby
and other counties in this section
would be a dead letter in mountainous,
rocky counties. If possible, under
the Constitution, road laws should be
passed suitable to the three grand
divisions Of the State, or in the nature
OF local option which counties could
adopt or decline at their pleasure
These are three Of the really import
ant subjects that should be con
sidered by the Legislature
Though as usual, we presume
there will be FIVE or six hundred bills
introduced relating to every possible
interest and subject that could tt
reached by legislation. The matter
ofregulatiug railroad tariffs and prop
erly assessing the property Of railroad
companies is also one Of serious i'm
pOrtance and has already been consid
erably discussed.

THERE is an election in the city to-
day for Magistrate at large, but the
average voter hovereth around the
stove and goeth not forth to cxercsise
the right Of suffrage. If he has a
preference at all, he thinks it for tte
stove. Verify the candidate hath a
lonesome time tramping from one
voting place to another, The man
elected will probably have small
vote, but a big majority. rhe
American citizen doesn't enthuse
we'll to-day. He would hardly ride
around in free hack with bottle Of
bitters thrown in. Even the profes.
sional voter lacks animation to day,
and the very soul Of patriotism is con
gealed in the bosoms Of those who
have so sfIen saved the country.
This is all very sad, but there is no
apparent help for it.

Duluth Mimi Tribune.

A prototype Of the famous Mulkittls
boy, Of Arkansaw, lives here in Du.
luth. fAfter returning from church
last Sunday he sat in a very thought
ful attitude for awhile and then asked:
PA, didn't the preacher say thai
he that believeth shall be saved and h,
that believeth not shall be damned?'
Yes, my son"
Wasn't it swearing fur i'm 10 say
so?"
"0h, MOI"
why, wasn't it2'
because the word used in that
connection is not to be regarded al
profane."
III l was to say that you would be
damned if you didn't believe, would
it be swearin'2'
mot at all-but don't ask so many
questions"
Would it be swearin' if I'd say
damn you il you don't"
There, there, my son, you arc
carrying it too far. Be quiet now for
heaven s sake2'
viii ma be damned if she don't
believer"
Certainly"
"And me, too?'
"0f course"
And the dog, too2"
"Ohl for goodness sake hush You
drive me crazy"
Say, pa, would Jack, the crazy
man, be damned if he didn't helieveSi'
"Yesl Yesl Yesl Yesl Yesl Now
hushl"
Then he'd be like Oscar Wilde,
wouldn't he2"
mo, he wouldn't
"Yes, he would"
He would not, and now if you
don't dry up I'll thrash youl"
But he would, pa.
How would hep
"Why, didn't l hear you say that
Oscar Wilde was a damned idiot, and
if crazy Jack was to be-"
But before he could conclude the
sentence a concpssion remote from his
talking machine claimed his imme-
diate attention.
