lures impeached the editors veracity, and
declared that the Post had 'insulted the
intelligence and Christian people of our
happy and prosperous town. and brand.
ing the sentiments of the article as "un-
just and untrue in every particular.
Well it is only how an intelligent man
looks at and understands the meaning of
words whether he would consider such a
matter as mot much" A man generally
defends that which he values most and if
he has any pride of character and prizes
his reputation for truth, he would think it
meant not only much, but great DEAL
When ffty-nine citizens published a
card in the Post emphatically pronounc-
ing its statement unjust and untrue in
every particular" the Post took issue with
the veracity of those ffty-nine citizens
and reiterated its damaging charges
against the fair name of its own town
and the probity CT its own citizens
by saying +" We can proce what ne SAID"
Well, the Post said that it had interviewed
the citizens of Acworth and they were
almost solid to have whisky voted back
into Acworth," at least that is its own
explanation OF what it said.
Now, when the Post proves this as it as
serts, and secures and publishes the names
of ffty-nine as honorable, upright, truthful
and intelligent citizens to sign card that
what its editor said is true, then he can
exclaim mot much; but until he does, the
issue of veracity is unsettled between the
Post and the fifty.nine business men of
Acworth, who publicly branded its state
ment as an Tins ult, unjust and 'un-
true" in every particular, NOT one par
ticular, out every particular. And until
the Post refutes in every particular"
what these citizens said, we prefer to be-
lieve that those fifty. nine honorable and
truthful men told the truth
Now, if the editor of the Post will in
suit its own citizens, as they in pup
lished card say he has and if the editor
of the Post will write and publish and
send broadcast unjust and untrue"
statements about his own town and his
own citizens, as fifty>nine business men of
Acworth in a published card say he has
then it cannot be expected that he would
be less insulting" less untrue" in his
statements about neighboring paper who
has never injured it, but always treated it
courteOusly. If the Post would misrepre-
sent its own town and people who support
and sustain it, then it cannot be expected,
when actuated by spite and selfish motives
it would treat the JOURNAL any better.
Until the truth Of the statement made by
the SO business men of Acworth is refuted,
then any thing the Post has said or may
say cannot hurt us. An impeached wit
ness has no standing in court and his tes-
meny is ruled out.
Now, Mr.. Post, we again say, that
those who live in glass houses should
not throw stones )" and the Jesup Sentinel
is not the author of the quotation either,
as you in your ignorance seem to think.
We wish the Post well. Ia ia

PHILLIPS LEGION.
THE REUNION A GRAND SUCCESS

The reunion of Phillips Legion
of Confederate veterans at Glover's

was lovely and the crowd OF visitors
large. About $50 of Phillips LIE.
glon were present and large num-
Der ct old veterans from all over the
county. One old veteran of the
Legion came one thousand miles to
be here and see his comrades again.
Col. Rich, Of Gadsden, Ala, was
very fortunate. He found the COM
pany of Miss Jennie Loveless, OF
Gainesville, SO lovely and capti-
waiting, that he renewed his love-
making of long ago and the twain
were made one by Rev. DIR. Head
en-, of Rome, an old veteran of the
Legion.
The exercises were opened by
singing "All Hail the Power of
Jesus Name" and prayer by Rev.
R. B. Headen. The welcome ad-
dress was delivered by Miss May
Manning, daughter of Mr.. Geo. M.
Manning, of this place. To say the
address was charming, would but
family express its true worth; it was
grandly beautiful and eloquent.
Miss Manning's delivery was fault
less and impressive.
Judge S. A. Erwin, of Athens,
responded in an appreciatiye speech
in behalf Of the visiting veterans,
and Judge Geo. N. Lester in q hap
Ply style, responded in behalf of the
veterans of the count.
By request, Mr.. Latimer, of
Phillips cavalry, sounded his bugle,
calling the tattoo, roll call and
charge. His two little boys, II and
Is years old, sang two beautiful
pieces.
The basket dinner on long tables,
proved 'feast of reason and flow
of SOUL" In sumptuousness of
choice viands, nothing like it has
ever been spread in Cobb county
before.
After the sound of Mr.. Latimer's
bugle, the crowd re-assembled at
the stand again and listened to the
memorial address deliv cred by Rev.
R. B. Headen, of Rome. The ad-
dress was magnificent, and stirred
the breasts of the old soldiers with
profound emotions at the recital of
"reminiscences of the past.
The Veterans Association re-
elected the former officers for the
year 1890, and on motion, Marietta
was chosen as the place of the next
meeting, on the third Wednesday
in August, 1890.
The day was pleasant one in
more senses than one and will not
soon be forgotten by the happy
throng present. Every body enjoy
ed themselves. Judge Lester said
it seemed to be like an old-fashioned
class meeting. There was the best
of order and everything passed off
as well as one could desire.

Chinese JubiIations-The Portuguese
Leaving.
Deputy Sheriff Swain of Laupahoehoe
seems just the man for the place. Fol
several years efforts have been made to
catch a Chinaman who was selling
liquor. Swain caught him and the fell
low had to pay a nice fine. When
Swain has anything special he wishes to
communicate with the Sheriff at Hilo
upon, he comes to Hilo with almost rail
way speed. He IS the best man that has
been there in many years.
The American tern Fred. f. Sanders,
Captain Chas. Roos, sailed February 9TH
for San Francisco, with 40 tons sugar
from Waiakea and 37515 tons from
Wainaku. Passengers: II. B. Richards,
Mr.. Hotchkiss.
The weather is awful dry at Hilo, very
little rain for two months. The streets
are very dusty, and many think if we
could have a real old-fashiOned rain that
it would assist in driving away the
coughs and colds that prevail SO gener-
ally here. The Wailuku River is very
low, and it may be necessary to build a
Golfer dam to bring the water down if we
do not have some rain soon, as all the
streams are getting so low and water SO
impure.
The Chinese had the biggest time ever
given by them at Hilo on their New
Year. There must have been big cart
load of firecrackers exploded. On the
plaza where there is tall cocoanut tree
they hOisted three immense strings of
crackers and the noise could be heard
all over town. One Chinaman who
keeps big store gave grand dinner,
and sent out written invitations. He
hired large room in the Spreckels
building for the occasion. Samshoo and
beer were plentiful-evidently dodge to
get trade.
On the 18th inst. the Kinau will take
twenty-five families from here en- route
for California, thinking to better their
condition, They seem to be afraid that
their wages will be reduced. They say
if they were assured of one dollar per
day they would remain. There is pro-
jeCt on foot to charter vessel that is to
arrive here soon and go to Port Town
send. The road to the Volcano will be
commenced shortly and large numbers
can get work at good prices. But they
seem to have got the mania to go. Ger
tainiy no class of labor has ever been i'm
ported here as valuable as the Portu-
guese. 1t is hoped some will change
their minds. The best are going. A
gentleman has been here from Homo
lulu who says he can get work for all
who will remain. The Portuguese have
been of very great advantage to these
islands. Honolulu will with them miss
their small pay. 1t is only by their
children working that they have been
enabled to provide food for all. Live and
let live should be the motto of every
man who loves his fellowman.

The test of Captain Zalinski's
pneumatic dynamite gun made at
Fort Lafayette in New York harbor
was very satisfactory. Three tests
at 1000, 500 and 100 yards were to
have been made, but the programme
in this respect was not carried out.
Only two were fred-one 200-pound
shell and tho other of 500 pounds
charged with No. 1 dynamite. Both
were discharged at point the size
of a vessels deck, marked by buoys,
at distance of one mile. The alb
sence OF an object made it impossi-
BILE to demonstrate thoroughly the
destructive power of the shots, but
it was said that either of the bombs
hurled would have destroyed any

15-inch caliber, and each shot sent
upward a body of water to height
OF about 800 feet.

vessels are thoroughly satisfied with the
port of Mahukona. The moorings are
sufficient and secure, and the loading

need, however, is a lighthouse.
Still dry, very dry; the ground is
