II is easy enough to form a new
political party when its founder is
satisfied to be the party exclusively

tween the poles cdnn'ot pat like

Thus out of the innumarable par

who sneaked off several cases of

The school here has vacated for

?. J. Ruckar on Bridges
To the Editor of the Dispatch:

Are we not nice set of men to
talk about Wall street depressing the
poor when in our own State the poor
man who is not worth over $500 in
property pays the same taxes for
roads as the man who is worth S5O,-
OO0? Any man that is willing to
make poor men work the roads for
him to drive his carriages, buggies
and wagons over is no better than a
Wall street man who is willing to
live by depressing the poor.
Work your roads by taxation as
you build your jails, court houses
and bridges, and pay your office
holders, OF make every poor man pay
the same taxes as the rich orput him
in jail or the penitentiary. You
have as much right in the sight Of
God to rob him out of his money as
you have to rob him out of his labor.
Court houses, jails and bridges can
all be built by making every man
work six or twelve days in the year.
See the money it will save tie rich
man. You have as much right to do
this as you have to make the poor
man work the road for the rich.
Road working is the most unjust
thing that has ever been heaped on
any poor man, he must take bread
from the mouth OF his children and
put it on the public road for the rich
man to drive over, and after all we
have no roads worth the name.
The man lives on a section where
the roads need but little work, so he
goes almost free; another fellow lives
on the hills or the swamps and he
must work 6 or II days. One man
has no horse, COW or wagon, and an
other has one horse and wagon; yet
each of these must contribute as
much work as the man who has 10
wagons and so mules with q loud
voice and a long prayer we cry
Equal rights to ALL"
twenty-five cents on $500 worth of
property will work the roads, so the
poor man who is only worth $500
will get off with twenty-five cents a
year. Some one wants to pay SO
much on the head. That is only
changing the name for the poor m an
but it is dog all the same.
Here is good plan to work the
roads. Let convicts work near the
towns and let the money raised by
taxation be expended in other parts
of the counties. Legislators give
your own people justice at home,
and then cry "Wall street" and I am
with you. Respectfully,
I P. J. RUcKER.

OBITUARY.

Sarah Mary Ann Derrick was born
Sept. 26, 1892, and died Aug. l3 1894.
making her earthly pilgrimage 81
years, 10 months and II days.
She was baptized and confirmed
in the Evangelical Lutheran church
very early in life, and remained a
consistent member of the same till
her death.
She was twice married; the first
time to DR.. Samuel Hitler, who pre-
ceded her to the spirit land by the
space of 20 years. She was next
married to Mr.. Geo. Derrick, who
died about four years ago. From
these unions were born 9 children, 6
boys and three girls, all of whom are
still living. She was the grand
mother of 80 children, two of whom
are dead, and one great grandchild.
Thus one by one, we are borne
across the mystic river from whence
no traveller has ever returned. The
victory is won, and heaven, the Chris
tians's goal, is reached by one who
has been redeemed by the Saviour's
Flood. Her death was not expected,
but she passed away repeating,
"Nearer my God to Thee" We
rather thought it voice from the
other shore, as it approached nearer
and nearer the great white throne,
and we lean forward to catch one
more word as it echoes back to earth
Nearer to Thee" An immense au-
dience came to drop a tear on her
grave at Bethel church, while we
await to meet her gloriied body in
heaven. S. @. B.

Crops. Snake Killing. Etc.


To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Things are very quiet in this
part Of the county at this time.
Crops have been badly represented
from this section a few weeks back
by some one. I think if the writer
would make close examination cf
the crops he would find that they
have been damaged by the excessive
rain at least one-half, especially is
this the case with cotton.
Candidates are very thick now. /
hope the best men will be elected.
There have been men from the
Fork here hunting homes in this
section. There is room for q great
many more people and we hope they
will be fortunate in finding lands to
suit them.
Joseph Williamson killed a rattle
snake between FIVE and six feet long,
having sixteen rattles, near Shum-
pert's mill on Cedar creek.
Shumpert says he is ready to
grind new corn for the people at the
call of his customers and will do the
best he can to please them.
The people of this section are en-
joying good health, with the excep-
ton of my old friend, Mr. Joseph
Taylor, who is scarcely able to get
about, he being the oldest man in
this section by odds.
Mr.. Henry Spires youngest daugh-
ter ran away and got married a few
days ago.
Things are generally lively. Fod-
der pulling is now the order Of the
