The news is scarce with us this week,
Mr.. Editor, but will try and give your
many readers few dots.
We have been having some Of the cold
est weather I have ever experienced at this
time OF year. 1t seems strange to see so
much ice and frozen ground.
The people of Long Branch are gener-
ally we'll, and no wonder. 1t is true that
people get sick here as in other places,
but DR.. Campbell will not let any one en-
Joy spell of sickness any length of time.
There are lots of little chickens In this

The farmers are great deal farther

Rocky River News.

AS have never seen any news in your
paper, Mr.. Editor, from our neighbor-
hood, thought 1 would try and give you
few items.
Our little neighborhood is located on
the lower edge of the County. We have
one Church and school. Just now, we
are sorry to say, the school is closed, the
measles having attacked nearly all Of the
pupils, and our good teacher, Miss
Minnie Cowan, has gone home. We have
a fine Sunday School. Rev. G. M. Rogers
is pastor of our Church.
Mrs. Z. Hall has had severe attack OF
rheumatism, but under the skilltul treat
ment of DR.. A. at Alice, she is now re-
covering. When you get sick send for
DR.. A., and if you need a lawyer, employ
the lawyer at Alice, and you will always
do we'll.
Mr.. Charlie Stone, of the Flat Rock
section, has been visiting this section.
Some of the fair sex say call again, Char

easy times. :.

Cedar Grove Items.

Election year has again rolled around,
and everybody is endeavoripg to keep
posted on the times. AS we said in your
paper two years ago, we are neither Till
manite nor an anti-Tillmanite. We voted
tor Tillman at the general election on
principle, but this year we will not sup
port him under any circumstances. nor
will We vote for any man who holds with
him.
The old darkey, July Duckworth, who
we mentioned some time ago as having
the grip, is dead. She was perhaps the
oldest person in the County. Her age was
not known exactly, but from all accounts
she must have been over one hundred
years DID,.
An infant child of Mr.. Jim. Chapman
was buried here few days ago. On Sun
day, Goth inst, Mr.. John Owene, of Pei
zer, also buried a little babe here.
We have the largest attendance at our
Sunday School since it was re-organized
that we have ever had, and the indications
are that it will also be the best Sunday
School we have ever had. The prayer
meeting has also taken on new life, and,
from the large attendance, it is doing good
work. The people who use to hunt and
fish on Sunday now attend the Sunday
School. We now want to get those few
persons who would rather visit their
neighbors and talk politics aud business
on Sunday to come and join US.
Mr.. J. P. Lswless says he set hen on

Sandy Springs Items.

AS this is my first attempt, Mr.. Editor,
to write to your valuable paper, hope it
will escape the waste basket.
We regret to report that the health Of
this section is not good. Mr.. T. P. Hob
son is sick with typhoid-malaria fever,
and two of his children are also afflicted
with same disease. Several Of MIR. W. E.
McAllister's family are on the sick list, too.
The farmers have about finished put

ing we'll.
We had severe wind storm on the 10th
inst, and great deal of timber was blown
down.
Mr.. Reid Garrison had the misfortune
tu lose q fine milch COW recently.
The school at this place has closed for
the present.
Dinner bells are quite numerous in this
section now. They have taken the place
of the old.fashioned dinner horn. The
mules begin to bray as soon as they hear
the bells, for they have learned what II
means.
The political excitement will soon be up
to fever heat. My prayer is that peace
and harmony will reign supreme.

,lace was sent by :he President to the

place was sent by tho President to the
Senate Committee on elections he was
told that "old man Hampton" had said
he would oppose it, for he (RusselD ex-
erted too great all influence in the upper
section of this State to he placed in so inn
portant a position. He said be went to

daughter and applause.) The speaker
said he had written a history of the
trou bles in the Democratic party, by re-
quest, and bad it 'hled in the archives at
Washington"
After much of this kind of talk, and
having predicted the Democratic party
would fall to pieces of it's own corruption,
he announced himself as 2 candidate for
delegate at large to the Minneapolis Con-
vention. While doing this be turned to
Col. Cochran aud said, in effect, that Coch-
ran seemed to want to keep his faction out
in the cold. Cochran replied tEat he did
unless they would come in at the front
door.
The next speaker was negro from
Pickens named Bird. He bawled consid
erably for Russell's crowd and said he
wanted to nominate State ticket. "Dats
why I voted for Haskell summer 'lore
last."
Cochran said in reply to this that if the
Republicans nominated ticket this year
the Democrats would settle their differ.
ences before Saturday night and oppose
you solidly.
Lawrence Jones and one Gaines were
also mentioned as candidate for delegate
from this District.
The meeting adjourned at about II
o'clock.
: Col. Cochran made quiet and conserv
alive speech to the negroes, and gave them
good advice.
Postmaster Russells speech bordered on
the inAammatory style, and was calcn.
lated to excite and arouse the passions of
the negroes. No good can come to the
community at large from the speech he
made, but evil might be iustigated by it.
While We believe the factions In the Re-
publican party are more hostile to each
other than those in the Democratic party,
every Democrat in the State, could he
have attended that "pow.woh," would
have felt the necessity of unity within
their ranks and would have realized that
the blacks of the country, under leader
ship Of shrewd white men, might yet again
bring to pass the time that would witness
"black heels upon white necks."
