TO ANON.

EDITORS JOURNAL:-I don't wish
to we your patience or intrude
upon your valuable paper, but wish
to answer the inquiries made by
canon" of last week in reply to an
article of mine of recent date, He
asks, why l did not count out Gov
ernor Northen and all the State
house officers :? For the simple
reason their names were not on the
Republican ticket, Our friend
speaks of straining at gnat and
swallowing camel, 1t seems to
me that he made great effort to
swallow something when he makes
the statement that Mr. Spilman had
the names of all the State house
officers on his tickets, Our friend
asked wherein is a farmer taxed and
other classes exempt? The farmers
do not stop when they pay their
own tax but pay a large proportion
of the professional taxes and also of
the merchants, fora wide awake
merchant when he gets bill OF his
goods he generally adds a per cent
on over and above the original cost
to cover all expenses of the same,
and as large part of the purchasers
being farmers, they of course pay a
large part of the taxes, So with the
professional man VINO pays his ten
dollars, If he gets any practice, he
generally makes his charges to cover
expenses, Not so with the farmer,
He has nothing to do in making his
bills, What he sells is priced for
him and what he buys is priced for
him, and so on,
Again the bondholder with his
millions, who draws his interest
every three months in gold, pays no
tax, while the poor farmer who may
not have but one cow to half feed
his hungry children, is forced to
pay tax on the same. This all may
be righe but it don't exactly seem
fair.
Again the railroads will water
their stock and run them to about
double their worth and in order to
get interest on the full amount,
they put the charges upon the
transportation ofproduce and other
things to make it, the farmers being
the largest contributors to the same.
For fear of this becoming too
long l will close by asking "Anon"
to send me his address and | will
send him a ticket,

DUE WEST

Politics are rather quiet, though we
have some who would like to have office if
they could get it. As far as old Amor is
concerned, he don't care who rams so he is
good man, but let a man rrn on his mer-
its, and not depend on the Alliance to pull
him through. / am an AIlianceman and
in favor Of filing our Legislature and our
Congress with Alliancemen, but for county
officers. where there are no laws to make,
/ am in favor OF every good man, and when
/ say good, mean man who has the
necessary qualifications to make an honest
and capable officer. / trust. therefore, as
there are several good men candidates for
the different offices in the county, that the
Alliance will not recommend any man, but
let each man run on his own merits and
popularity. AS the Democratic Executive
committee of Cobb county did not order
primaries for this year for county Offices
then no other organization should recom>
mend candidates for these offices, as there
are no politics in it and no laws for them
to make. OF course as an Allianceman,
| would stick to any recommendation they
might make, but it would not be wise to do
anything OF his kind, when there is no
good to the order to be subserved by it. |

in the matter.

A special from Raleigh, N. G.
says the Supreme Court has filed an
opinion in an important and novel
Casa $4,000 damage suit brought
by j. S. Young, of Crave4 county,
against the Western Union Tele-
graph Company. Last year Young's
wife was taken i'll in Greenville, S.
c., and telegraphed to her husband
to come on. He did not get the
message until six days later, and in
the meantime Mrs. Young had died,
and had been buried without him
knowing of either fact until 1t was
over. Young obtained damages in
the Superior. Court, but the Wes-
tern Union took tho matter to the
Supreme Court which sustains the
findings Of the lower court.

REV. G. $. TUMLIN.

The following resolutions were passed
by the Marietta Baptist Church:
Whereas, Bro. G. s. Tumlin, after serv-
ing US tor Eve years as pastor of the Mari
eta Baptist Church, has rendered his
resignation as such. which has been ac-
cepted by the church, and it IS proper and
accords with our wishes to give expression
to our thoughts and feelings in this way on
parting with him as our pastor; therefore,
be it,
Resolved lst That it is with regret and
sorrow that we witness the severing of that
tie which has bound us together as pastor
and congregation, under which both have
so cordially cooperate together in the
upbuilding of the Masters cause.
Resolved End. That in his resignation
we lose the services OF an untireing worker;
one who was ever Mt the front in finding
opportunities of doing good, and among
the first in taking advantage of therein.
That in the pulpit the cardinal requisites
OF a good orator, good sense, good will, and
good principle, was ever exempli6ed in his
sermons and we recall with much pleasure
the many sermons that he preached to US
IN which new and profound gospel truths,
proclaimed in eloquent and loving Lam
guage, charmed our listening ears. That
we appreciate the fact that under his min>
istry the church has greatly prospered.
There has been during this time fifty three
baptisms and nearly twice that number re-
ceived in other ways. The yearly contri-
buttons for missionary purposes have in>
creased four>fold, and those for other
church purposes save been at least dou-
bled.
Resolved 3rd, That in going to his new
field OF labor our prayers will be for him,
and his family and his work. May Gods
richest blessings rest upon him and his,
and may his labors for the upbuilding Of
the Masters cause be abundantly success
pl.
Resolved 4th, That these resolutions be
spread upon the minutes of the church,
and copy be sent to Bro. Tumlin, and
also to the MARIETTA JOURNAL and Chris
tan Index for publication.
