Arrest of Mitch Barney.

Albany is getting to be the At
lanta of Southwest Georgia.
Criminals naturally drift here in
the hopes of escaping arrest by
mingling with the crowds that
throng our streets.

scendent Of Ham, afflicted with
the disease that is almost epidemic
with them, appropriated wrong
fully to his own use, with inten-
ton of stealing the same, g guam
tity OF meat and a blanket taken
from a wagon in Dawson. He
came to Albany to escape arrest,
but an officer Of Terrell coun y
followed and discovered the
wheaeaborts of said Mitch, and,
on yesterday morning, as be was
enjoying the sights Of the city,
rudely destroyed his enjoyment
by efectlng his arrest Albany

Barney stole some meat here
about two years ago and jumped
his bond, since which time he has
made his presence scarce in
these parts. He is now safely
lodged in our jail.

Fer and r. A. Turhipseed, demo-
cratic nominee, for Congress and
the Senate, addressed an audience
of about l5O or 200 people on
the issues of the day at the Opera
House. Col. Turnipseed was
first introduced, and in a few
pleasing and we'll chosen remarks
defined his position on the I'M
portant issues that will likely
claim the attention of the next
Legislature. He expressed HIM
self as being Ia favor of the rail
road commission as it now is, the
present convict system, and the
releasing Of the State road to the
highest responsible bidder. He
made a good impression on our
people.
Mr.. Turner was then introduced
and entered into the discussion Of
national questions. His principal
theme was to show that the demo-
cratic administration has been a
success. Among other things he
spoke of the tariff ques tio0 and
showed that the people of the
South would be greatly benefited
by the reduction of taxation that
would result from free trade
system. We have not The space
to give full report of the speech
and suffice it to say that the is
sues were presented in clear,
concise and logical manner. Mr..
Turner has made a superior Con-
gressman and has a strong hold
upon the appreciatiye people of
the district.

at once began giving soda and has
not had hog to die since. While
in Dawson Mr.. Murray bought
eight pounds Of soda for his hogs.
The remedy is simple and it would
