CONSISTENCY.
A VOTER ANS WERED AS BEST WE
KNOW.

EDS. JoURNAL-"Old Democrat
from Upshaw, 28th OF January,
asked the question, "How can
Southern white men, especially
those who have heretofore claimed
to be Democrats, now consistently
act with the Third Party ?''
Now, Mr. Editor, you have solv-
ed Old Democrats problem, l sup
pose, satisfactory to yourself. Now
can't you tell us now any Southern
white man claiming to be Demo
crat could jump the Democratic
nomination, take up, run and vote
for a straightout Republican, as
some OF our Jeffersonians, so-called.
did in our last elections?
Yours very respectfully,
Voter.
In answer to respectful request,
we would say we don't think any
true Democrat could consistently
vote for Republican when there is a
regular democratic nominee to vote
for, any more than he could vote for
a Third Party man, or any other
kind of a party man. consistency"
does not consist in claiming loyalty
ty one party and giving his vote TO
support and sustain another party.
Action speaks louder than words.
There is no half pig and half puppy
in it. A man is true Democrat or
false one. He is either working
for and inside of the Democratic
ranks, or he is working outside and
seeking to defeat that party. He
that is not for the Democratic party,
voting fer the Democratic party
nominees and against tie nominees
OF any and all other parties, is not
consistent, if he claims to be dem-
ocrat. That is all there IS in it.

WE CAN HAVE THEM.
CALCULATE FOR YOURSELF AND
Do WHAT Is BEST.

Will free schools and water works
benefit our town, if we can get them
at less rate of taxes and insurance
than we are now paying?
Free schools will increase taxes
IL cents on the one hundred dollars.
We can have the water works with.
out Increasing the rate of taxation,
and that will reduce the rate Of in>
surance % per cert. The rate now
tor city taxes is 35 cents on the
$4,000. And IL cents for free
schools and we will pay AZ cents on
the $4,000. 10 illustrate A man
owning house valued at 100000
now pays 81 so taxes and $4,000
insurance, total $3.50. Vote free
schools and water works and he will
pay $500 tax and $1,000 insurance,
total S24.60, thereby saving $3.50;
and if he has any children send them
to school free of cost; and if he has
none, helping those to go to school
that are not able to pay for it and

in the town, and adding to the
towns beauty and health and en-
couraging enterprise, without cost.
Ing any man any more taxes and in
surance than he is now paying.

The above facts present them
selves very plausibly. Some of the
Alderman speak as if they will be
able to contract for waterworks, so
hydrants, for $4,000 per year, for
90 years, without increasing the
taxes. The privilege Of 5uying the
plant at the end 5, 10, Is or. 20
years will be granted. OF course.
the FIRE engine would have to be
sold and the expenses. attached

claimed that good deal of money
was expended in cutting downTay-
l9r's hill, Powder Springs and Law
renee streets, also IN sewerage,

and with all this saving, taxes will
not necessarily have to be increased
to put in waterworks.
The matter is left with the voters
to say whether they will authorize
the council to so act. The election
is ON Saturday, February Goth.

SUNDAY was a very Indictment day
and interfered greatly with church
attendance.
REV. Mr.. MYERS, agent of the
American Bible Society, was in the
city last week, and held prayer
meeting for Rev. Mr.. Ellis, who was
too unwell to lie out.
Rev j. A. Wynne preached the
the finest sermon Sunday morning
at the Baptist Church, since he has
been in Marietta. His subject was
Peter walking on the water.
Rev. Mr.. Patton gave two fine
sermons to his congregations at the
Presbyterian church Sunday.
We were in error last week in
saying that Lent begins on the 21st
OF March. Ash Wednesday, the
FIRST day of Lent, happens this year
on the End day of March, and Easter
as we stated last week on the 18th
of April.
REV. C. T. A. PIsE returned from
his visit to Ohio last week and
preached at both services last Sun
day. He has an appointments at
Union Chapel next Sunday after

the company they keep; but do you
carefully guard against ever submit
ting yourself to be the companion OF
low, vulgar and dissipated men, and
hold it as maxim, you had better
be alone than in mean company?
Let your companions be such as
yourself, or superior; for the worth
of man will always be rated by
that of his company. You do rot
find pigeons associate with hawks,
or lambs with bears; and it is un-
natural for a moral man to be the
companion of blackguards.

old foreman, who before the war
had been his negro foreman on the
same place, what to plant. ''Here
you will plant your corn. here your
OATS" etc., etc. When he got
through the foreman said: "Why,
masss, you amt left no land for
your cotton. Whar you gwine to
plant dat % "Oh," said the planter
81 am going to buy my cotton Il
am going to sell these crops and buy
my cotton" Sure enough, the oth>
er day he had a lot Of neighbors at
his house and showed them 100
bales stored away. He said to them:
''Here's my cotton crop. You raised
it, bought it at six cents pound.
Now, I'm going to hold it."

have made money tie same way.
