COUNTY CANDIDATES.

We notice a number of counties
have taken action in reference to
holding conventions, primaries, etc
and candidates for the August
election are hustling. 1t would not
be bad idea for the republicans to
settle their differences early and
let the men who are to bear the
badge of party nominees do the
running. 1t is unjust and unfair to
those candidates who will get left
to keep them working all the
spring for a nomination and then
turn them down too late to allow
them to put in a spring crop.
We suggest that the Chairman
should get his committee together
before long and discuss this matter

Dangerous Athletics.

A young man was fatally injured
in a game of foot ball at Atlanta
and the Georgia legislature has
passed law prohibiting the game.
The newspapers have taken it up
as a timely topic and are arrayed,
some on one side and some on
another, some saying foot ball must
go, others that a modification of the
rules governing the fascinating
game is all that is necessary. While
The Journal inclines to the belief
that too much prominence is given
to athletics in our schools, it also
believes that the danger feature is
overdone.
There Is hardly any sort of ath-
letics in which young men engage
that is not dangerous. More than a
thousand young men are drowned
every year while swimming and yet
no one has proposed law abolish
ing it. More than five hun dred lives
are lost yearly from boating, but
boating goes on. Lives are lost hunt
ing and bicycling and horseback
riding, and skating, and coasting,
and base ball and so on; but moth
ing is said about prohibiting them

from athletics, and where a young
man who engages in such games

The workhouse Question.

Mr.. Editor Times IL will offer O
few thoughts in reply to Mr.. ]. E.
Keeper who proposes that that
the court further burden the tax
payers by constructing q movable
stockade and move it out on the
public roads. This would. further
burden the tax payers Instead of
relieving them ana accomplish
nothing. 1t would cost a consider
able sum of money to prepare such
a stockade and when ii was to
move it would cost several dollars
to move it and this plan will necesi
tate the hiring of more guards; at
least as many more for they would
be to guard day and night, and my
opinion for 1t, whenever they are
taken out of Jail and kept in such
stockade as would likely be pre-
pared for them they are going to
get away. Now don't want the
people of this county to think for a
single moment that 1 am not in
favor Of good roads, put don't
think it is right and just for the tax
payers to have to pay three or four
times the worth of the work on
these roads. Look if you please al
the cost of our convicts for the
month of October. They cost us
$S7524, at this rate they would cost
: us $45O2.SS. a year. Will any
man dare say that we are not pay.

in my mind but what the court il

much so as it ought to be, but haC

citizens md do all that can de done

W to such an extent that 1T was diff

and music was furnished at intervals dur
ing the evening by Plambeck's orchestra.
The exhibit was a surprise to many people
who did not realize the extent and impor-
lance of the city's manufacturing indus
tries. The exhibits which attracted the
most attention, but principally because they
were of such a nature as to permit OF the
display of good taste in their arrangements,
were those of the Fremont Mattress and
Furniture company, Fremont Bottling works.
Brewery and Saddlery company. The hemp
mill had an exhibit of tow in bales and of
a bunch of the long fiber hemp, the wooden
mill had fine specimens of cloths and wool
and yarns in the different stages of manu-
%facture, the Sheldon Picking works, a COM
paratively new institution, had an attractive
exhibit, and passed out many samples of
products. Tho chicory company made coffee
from their product which was sampled by
all who could get near the stand. Wolz's
potato chips and biscuits, made from FIRE.
mont flour, were also given out during the
evening. f. M. Wallace had an exhibit of
beet and chlcory growing implements which
attracted much attention. e.. p. Anderson
