Hon. George w. Thomas, of New
Jersey, formerly n Republican, later on
a Prohibitionist, having voted for st.
John four years ago, comes out for
Cleveland. Mr.. Thomas gives his rea-
sons as follows:
Iioined the Republican party at its
birth and conscientiously fought in its
ranks until four years ago, when vot-
ed for st. John. This year, for the first
time in its history, find my old party
pledged by its declaration of principles
to the policy of free whisky against
cheaper necessities of life. To the end
that may the more emphatically re-
buke that position shall vote for Cieve-
land and Thurman, and commend to
every man who thinks for himself and
values his manhood and the welfare of
his country to do likewise. The coun-
try has never had more patriotic, up
right and unselfish administration than
Grover Cleveland has given it, and the
onward march of prosperity-national
and individual should not be ieopar-
dized by change.

A DAY AT CYPRESS POND

Last Friday, the 18th day of Ju-
ly, will long be remembered as a
red letter day" in the history OF
Cypress Pond. On that day the
men who till our fields. and do the
most to keep together the souls aud
bodies of our people - the farmers
met together and had a royal
time. Their wives, daughters and
sons, mingled freely together, till
all appeared as one happy family.
The speech of the Hon. T Fl
Kimbrough, Master Of the State
Grange, was one of the best efforts
of the kind ever listened to. 1t
was most logical in its character,
and carried the conviction of truth
to the minds of those who listened
to it.
His representation of the Chat
tahoochee Valley Exposition, as
setting forth the identity of Co
lumbus with us and southwest
Georgia, was u happy one. and he
fully proved that the advantages
to Terrell county, resulting from
this Exposition, would be a great
one. He dwelt beautifully upon
the rapid growth and progress of
Columbus, and said that city would
he great factor, ultimately, in
building up Southwest Georgia.
He appealed to the Oranges and to
the Agricultural Society. to bring
up a county exhibit, so that q
proper appreciation might result
from our efforts to show the mag
niticent resources of our county,
and to bring to our borders frstr
class settlers who would help lis
develop the interests around us. II
was a mastery speech and its words
will long be remembered.
After the speech, dinner was an'
nounced, and it was bountiful
supply of good things. The tables
were filled with just such delicacies
as farmers wives only know how
to prepare, and each one had
enough to eat. Hospitality and
kindness ruled the hour. The ex-
hibit as to quality could not be
surpassed.
