that a new white mans party is
being organized by prominent white
Republicans of Georgia, including
United States Marshal Longstreet,
Hon. Jonathan Norcross and cx-Con-
gresham Freeman. In an address
just issued these Republican leaders
declare that the negroes of Georgia
shave thrust themselves forward as
a matter of right to the leadership of
the party, and being incompetent,
have destroyed its power for good,
and placed themselves in a ridiculous
light" The address further claims
that under negro management I" the
Republican party in Georgia has gone
to the dogs year by year." Another
Sherman investigation is called for.

What the Local Papers Do.

But few people in any community
realize the value Of good local paper.
Does it ever occur for an instant to the
business man that it is his solemn duty
to support the local press of his neigh
borhood? What constantly and gratu-
tOusly advertiseS 1t to the world as a
place of interest or importance? What
daily or weekly makes known to the
whole earth the simple fact that such a
place as that at which he is striving to
gain livelihood has existence on the
atlas? 1t is the local newspaper. Show
us a paper well filled with advertise
ments, and we will at onco take stock
in the enterprise and business tact of
the people where the journal is pub
lished. The outside world, that por-
tion of them at least. that are of value
to any community, judge more OF the
place by the newspaper or papers it
publishes than by any other sign. 1t is
therefore Il matter of great moment
that the local paper of the city, town or
village should be well supported, for it
above all things contributes to the gen
eral prosperity. There are other ways
that does not cost cent to aid IN
making the local paper what you think
it should be, that is in giving to its edi-
tor or reporter such items of interest as
would be news to the public as they
come under your observation. This is
an easy matter for all and would aid
materially in every community to make
the local paper what it should be, the
photograph of the city, town or village
that it represents.-Ex.

.,s.spke New Era last week announced
| its willingness to answer tools accord
ing to their folly. The Herald has
among its subscribers here some fools
who would like to have answers to the
following questions:
Were 9-13ths of the delegates from
Parker in the last convention enemies
of Parker, or only enemies of Thiel-
man. Hackett Il Co?
viii the New Era tell its readers
what has become of q number of the
voters who voted for Parker for county
seat two years ago? AT that election
Parker pollea 36S votes, while the asses
sor's returns show that eight months
afterwards the whole Parker precinct
did not contain that number by at least
10 votes. (See official returns as pub
listed in the New Era Feb. 9th, lSS4)
Will the New Era tell us how much
money was pad Mr.. Smead and his
railroad gang, for voting for Parker
for county seat, and the amount of
whisky consumed by SAID gang?
Will the New Era tell us what would
have been the majority of Parker for
county seat if Smead's gang had voted

there are now about LOO votes in the
county it will take about 1,13O votes to

the New Era tell us how much money
and whisky it Will take to purchase the
entire 500 votes?
