Mr.. Mills has His Saw.

Hon. Geo. T. Mills, the republican NOM
inee for Congress, accompanied by Maj.
Wood, were here last Saturday, stirring
up their republican friends, and now and
then striking democrat. Maj Wood was
heard to say on one occasion: I'VE should
lay aside all prcjudiccs, and look at the
matter from business standpoint. We
want the man to represent us who has our
interests at heart. Mr. Mills would do
more for the development and progress of
this section, the building up of your city,
and cause more Northern capital to be
invested here than any man that could be
elected in the district, because he is ac-
quainted with many of the Northern cap
talists, and they have confidence in him,
knowing his business integrity and quail
cations" Mr.. Mills, in speaking to
prominent republican, expressed himself
as being confident that he would win in
the coming contest. He said, II have
been over nearly the whole of the district,
and have estimated my majority ut abou
200, outside of this and Lee counties.
Unless the people in these two counties
go back on me, and that majority is over
come, will be elected. am we'll pleased
with the prospects here, and am not much
afraid of this county," He seemed well
satisfied with the result of his canvass
here, and left Saturday evening in good
spirits.
