Col. Turnipsced Nominated for the
Senate.

The Senatorial convention of
the 1lth district, composed of the
counties of Terrell, Clay and Ran
dolph, assembled in Cuthbert last
Friday.
Col. r. F. Simmons, Of Terrell,
was made permanent chairman
and the representation Of each
county fixed at thirteen votes.
Coils. r. A. Turnipseed and J.
d. Rambo, both Of Clay, were
placed in nomination, and on the
first ballot Col. Turnipseed was
nominated by two-thirds of the
votes, he receiving 25 $3.50 and
Rambo IL 59-120.
Terrell gave Turnipseed 4 and
Rambo 8; Clay, Turnipseed II
2-l5 and Rambo 1915; Randolph,
Turnipseed 81 and Rambo 1873.
One of the Randolph delegates
did not vote.
Col. Turnipseed was notified of
the action of the convention and
appeared before that body aud ac-
cepted the nomination.
Col. Turnipseed met with sharp
opposition i'll some quarters and
is to be congratulated on his
victory.
One of Mr.. Turnipseed's best
recommendations is that his home
people, those who for years have
had daily intercourse with him in
business and social relations, nev-
er let an opportunity pass to hon.
or him and thus testify publicly
to their confidence in his inte gritty
and ability,
He is prominent planter of
Clay, has represented his county
in the Legislature, and is a safe,
reliable, practical business man.
He is i'll the prime and vigor of
manhood, gentleman of marked
frmness and possesses extraordi-
nary energy in any work which he
undertakes. He is a man of
strong convictions and is not
afraid to proclaim them. He is
good speaker and expresses his
views in clear, emphatic and log
ical terms and will prove a com
petitor Of bold and marked ability
on any question which may arise
in the Senate.
We have no doubt that Col.
Turnipseed will do himself and
his constituency credit by the con
servatiye and wise course lie will
pursue in the Legislative halls oil
Ot"t~.
All strife should now be for
gotten and the nominee given a
hearty and undivided support.
PURSUANT to the act of the last
Legislature the Governor has is,
sued an order to the tax commits
sioners of the various counties tc
levy and collect a tax of three
mills on all the taxable property
of the State for general purposes,
and an additional tax Of one-half
mill for the building of the new
capital. 1t is estimated t4at the
tax Will bring in, together with
the special taxes and rental of the
Western and Atlantic railroad.
5 S1,691,4 ,457 on a property valuation
Of S305,000,000. The estimated
disbursements for the year is ST.
68l,850. A decrease in the spe-
cial taxes this year is looked for,
owing to a falling off in the liquor
tax and the fees of fertilizer in

A Suggestion to Onr Farmers.

Our Cross Roads correspondent
says the farmers of that section
have agreed among themselves
not to pay more than 80 cents per
hundred and rat;ons, or 40 cents
end the laborer feed himself, for
cotton picking this season. The
farmers of that community are in
telligent, liberal and prosperous,
and have set an exam
pie that would accrre to the ben.
etit of all our planting friends if
followed. Labor is abund-
ant, and there will be no trouble
to secure as much help as is need
ed at the prices above named
Provisions are low and labor
should be corrcspondingly SO.
BESIDES, at these figures the aver
age land will clear ten or twenty
cents per day more than at any 9th
er time during the year. The
best farm hands are rarely paid
over 40 cents per day and
rations, while picking cotton at
80 cents per hundred and rations
the average hand will make from
60 to IS cents per day.
Another prime reason for the
reduction IF the price pad for
cotton picking is that the indica-
tions are that the crop Will be
short and the prices low. AL
ready the cost of making the crop
has been m IRE than usual on &C.
count of the wet weather and the
great amount of grass that has
been contended with.
We think our Cross Road
'Ilehos nave taken the right step,
and the JOURNAL. hopes the farm
ers throughout the county will
agree among themselves and reg
ulate this matter. The present
state OF affairs demands that all
should be economical, and should
the planters go ahead blindly and
pay the usual high prices they
will do an injustice to themselves,
their creditors and their neighbors
who want to regulate this matter
and can't because Others are offer
ing higher price. Let the farm
ers cooperate in this matter and
all will be benefited.

When he was near Montargis he requi-

temporary quarters general. Nine. Le-

felt her heart sinh when she was in his
presence. She saw bloated surly
officer, without ray of human sympa-
thy in his round, prosaic face "C'etait
une physiognomie more ct atrabilaire. !"
The prince wanted to know what there
was in the cellar, and warned the lady
that as he was pressed for time she
would do well to show his orderly her
best vintages.
He sat, in speaking to her, with his
cap riveted on his head and his legs
stretched out When she was speaking
to him he had occasion to got up, and
stood, in doing so, on an Angora cat.
The animal protested in cat cries.
Prince Frederick Charles was exasper-
ated at the noise it made, and, taking
it up by the tail, dashed it through the
glass doors of buffet where choice
porcelain was piled up. Minette be-
haved like bull in a china shop, which

over the countenance of the prince, who
was tickied at the destruction that she

The Caribs of Honduras.
PHILADELPHIA Press |


The Caribs, or Caras, who are met in
British Honduras, existed, it is said, as
a powerful race in prehistoric times anc
spread gradually, under different names
over the globe They themselves assert
that they came from the north. At the
time of the discovery of America they
were in complete state of decadence,
although they had been previously q
highly civilized people. They sell vans
and a kind of bread called oazave. In
crowd their peculiar language, which
resembles the sound of gloo-gloo indie.
initely repeated, attracts attention al
once. Oddly enough, they use the
French numerals up to ten, though
French is seldom spoken in British Hon
duras The Carib women dress in skirts,
but wear no jacket over their low
necked undergarments. They like
gaudy turbans and ornaments.
