MAKE DAWSON GROW.

No interior city in Georgia offers a
better field for manufactures than
Dawson. Where is a better place for
a cotton factory, a guano factory, an
ice factory, and many other things that
might be mentioned?
The secret of a towns prosperity
lies in five words: keep your money
at home" This can be done by build
ing diversified industries, and not
sending off for what you need or desire
when you can purchase it at hcme
The money thus circulated comes
back to you in your trade; it enriches
you and enriches the town. This is
not all. Money is drawn from the sur
rounding towns, the business increas-
es, the plant is extended, more hands
are employed and others are encour-
G%ed to enter the work -Adr>->---
ltsiHah1ureds of thousands of dollars that
are yearly spent for the necessaries
and comforts of life could be retained
in Dawson and circulated among Oul
people by establishing diversified in.
dustries and inducing people to come
here from other places and erect
plants.
Let's all get together and make Daw
son grow some more.

SLANDERiRG CRJGGS.

This interesting paragraph is taken
from the last issue of the Calhoun
Courier:
'Republican Chairman B. C. Adams,
of Dawson, is conducting a still hunt
campaign in favor of his party's candi-
date for congress in the second district,
and is writing private letters to par
ties in this section in which he grossly
ISLANDERS the democratic nominee"
Judge Griggs is too we'll known
throughout the district to be injured
by these methods of the republicans.
And without disparaging the good
name of any man we might say that a
comparison of character with bis ira
ducers would not be to his disadvant-
age at all.
If Mr.. Adams, or any other man, has
any charges to make, let him come out
in the broad daylight with them-let
the people know what they are, and
let have a fair, open and manly
fight.
The people of Terrell county-and Of
the whole district, for that matter
will give Judge Griggs a certificate of
character on the Bird day of November
in the shape of the largest majority
ever given congressional candidate.
The Terrell statesman is winner
this year in spite of all the underhand-
ed tactics that have been used against
him since he announced his candidacy
several months ago.

jim AND JOHN.

The Congressional Candidates the Best OF
Friends. Ride, Eat and Sleep Together.
From the Albany Herald.
1t is creditable to both gentlemen
that the series of joint debates begun
j, M. Griggs and Hon. John A. Sibley,
respectively, for congress, has been
carried to within few days of its con-
clusiOn without any mud-slinging or
resort to supplementary or offensive
personal references. Only four more
of the series of ten joint debates agreed
upon now remain, and, instead of abus-
ing each other and engendering hard
feelings, one towards the other, the
two candidates are said to be getting
to be the best of personal friends.
Each rasps and ridicules the other and
the party he represents when they go
before the people in joint debate, but
there are no mean personal attacks
made nor blows dealt below the belt.
and when the scrap is over "Jim' and
John" are the most congenial com
panlOns, riding from place to place to-
gether and even occupying the same
room. 1t is refreshing in the cam
paign to see joint discussion between
opposing party candidates conducted
on the high plane upon which the
Griggs-Sibley joint debates have been
held, up to this time, and the Herald is
pleased tG refer to it as credltable to
both men.
From the brownsville Times.
The debate was lively and interest
ing throughout, but was conducted
with the utmost good feeling by both
candidates. No personalities were in
dulged in and nothing offensive was
said on either side. In fact, the two
opposing candidates are warm person
al friends. They travel together over
the district, using the same convey
ances and occupying the same room at
the hotels.

WATSON rs NOT A TRAITOR.

The latest political sensation has
been caused by a charge from Populist
Chairman Breidenthal of Kansas that
Vice-Presidential Candidate Watson is
a traitor to his party, and the national
committee should repudiete him.
The st. Louis Republic also prints
an editorial accusing Mr.. Watson of
treachery to his party in selling to the
New York World reviews of the cam
paign and attacks upon the party man
ayers.
The Atlanta Journal reviews the
charges and very properly says that
people of Georgia who know Tom Wat.
son will not believe that he is either
treacherOus or dishonest.
The statement is made in behalf OF
Mr.. Watson that his contributions tC
the New York World were not sold
but were furnished to that paper be-
. cause it had been the only one of the
metropolitan papers to treat him will
fairness and respect.

OUR COUNTY OFFICERS.

No county in the state can boast Of
more efficient set of county officers
than can Terrell, and this fact has
much to do with her progress aid pros,
perIty.
Her officers are representative citi-
zens-pOpular and conservative gentle
men-and our people are to be congrat-
ulated on their choices.
The management of our county af-
fairs will be in safe hands for two more
years.

SOME of the boilers are boiling their
own ticket, and in doing so make it
plain that the purpose of the Palmer
Buckner democrats is to aid McKin-
ley. The eleventh district elector on
the gold ticket has withdrawn and an
nounces that he will vote the republi-
can ticket, giving as his reason that il
us the only consistent course for all
true advocates ofsound money! This
frank bolter is Mr.. J. NJ. Wilkinson Of
Naldosta. The gentleman seems to he
man of convictions and stands nv
them, and this paper respects him for
1t. He furthermore seems to know
where he belongs and has gone
there.

THE papers are saying a great deal
about the approaching election of
supreme court judges, and all are
agreed that the politicians must keep
hands off, This is one branch of the
state government that should be free
from machine politics, and for this reas-
on the people have taken from the leg
islature the election of the justices. 1t
has been said that the people could not
be trusted to elect good and competent
judges, but we think fully as much wis
dom and sagacity will be manifested by
the people as have been for years dis
played by the log-rolling legislatures
in filing these important offices.
There will certainly not be more trad
ing and swapping among the sover-
eign people than there has been
among their virtuous representatives.

Ex-senator Buford Has Returned From

California trip last Friday evening.
He was accompanied by his sister-in-

around with vigor that was natural
to him before the fiend rheumatism

Mr.. Buford spent most of his time in
Paso Rabies, a place famous for the
medicinal properties of it's bath. His
improvement was manifest from the
time he arrived.
He also spent few weeks at Byron, a
watering place just out of San Francis
co. He says Paso Rabies is beautiful
little resort of $500 people, in an ever
blooming agricultural district.
