He Wants to Invest.

Jarvis Conklin, a well known cap
italist of Kansas City, has been here
the past few days looking around for
investments. He left last evening,
however, for Memphis, but left an
open proposition to unite with any
one OF the local banks and increase
the capital stock to 100000. He
also made a proposition to buy the
GAINESVILLE street railway stock at
fair figures.

Never in the memory of the pro-
verbal, "oldest inhabitant," did
we have rain to equal the dampness
of the past few months. Never be-
fore did the writer know good farm
ers to be SO for behind in planting
corn not more than three-fourths of
the crop was planted until last week,
and some yet to plant.
b. A. Wilson had to stop corn
planting last week to fix up his to.
bacco land and set it. A goodly
number of farmers are now trying to
get out their crop of the weed before
plants are over grown and seasons
suspend. Plants are in abundance,
though the planting win be consis-
tent, with the view to quality and
not quantity.

Let the LEAF-CHRoNICLE and

their voices loud and long in behalf
of the proposed Road Congress, and
let the people pull with might and
main in the direction of better roads.
The country roads everywhere at
test the need Of some system that
will give us better highways. If
that system shall require direct tax

overseer, by paid road hands, 80

Esq. Geo. A. Farmer, of this dis
trict, died ON the Goth, at his home
on Carr's creek. Esq. Farmer was
an old and hOnored citizen of the
county, having served his district
(the thirteenth civiD for many years
as justice of the peace. He was
never married, Frugality, strict
economy and life of industry put
into his treasury the snug sum Of
5000 or $4,000, Having no heirs,
it has been variously conjectured
what disposition he would make of
it. He was good man, member
of the Christian church and leaves
many friends to mourn his death.

whereby an advance movement would
have been given to the education of the
children OF our State and the whole
country.
An earnest appeal was ordered to be
made to Congress against making ap.
propriatlons for military preparations.
The nations of the earth are looking to
his Republic to take the lead in main
