Athens and the county of Clarke are

funds arising from the profits of the
Athens dispensary for the year 1898
The profits for 1898 were S11,OO7, and

hered to the city of Athens would get
five-sixth of that amount and the couu-
y would get one-sixth. The county
commissioners think the county is en-
titled to larger share, and Mayor Smith
does not think So Mayor Smith holds
that the ordinary is the proper Person
TO join with him in arranging the plan
of distribution, but Ordinary Herring

fuses to treat with the county commits

BETTER ROADS NEEDED,

From the Columbus Enquirer-Sun.
In commenting on the fact that the
public roads in the wealthy county Of
Bibb are now practically lmpassabIe,
the ThOmasyille Times Enterprise
says:
1.-THE people ought to rise up and
demand better roads all over the state
Georgia is lacking, sadly lacking. in
good roads. The present system of
working the public roads is the biggest
kind of farce"
There is a great deal of truth in what
our contemporary says. Pie wretch
ed condition of the public roads in the
large, wealthy and populOus county of
Bibb is by no means an exception. Ii
fact, TIE highways in many other
counties III the state have been almost
impossible for weeks, As a result, the
farmers either have to remain at home
or ruin their stock and vehicles at
tempting to 60 to and from their near
est markets. The loss to the farmers
every year, in damage to stock and We
nicles, on account of bad roads foOts
up an enormous sum, as shown by fig
ureS given in a recent article in the
Enquirer Sun. A uniform system of
road building should be adopted all over
the state. The work can be done by
degrees, as is the case in Muscogee
county BY following some such plan
in the course of few years good roads
could be built all over the state with
out making the burden of taxation too
heavy upon the people.
The commissioners of Muscogee
county are gradually building a system
of excellent graded roads. This work
will be completed in very few years,
when Muscogee will have first class
public roads to the county line in
every direction. 1his work will be &C
compllshed by Che commi ssioners
without raising taxes, issuing bonds or
creating dollar of Indebtedness. The
good work Of the MuscOgee commits
sioners serves to show what can be
done by other counties in the state y
well directed effort on the right line.

GAMBLER IS AFTER HIM.
GLESSNER TO LOSE PRISON COM
MISSION SECRETARYSHIP.
The Governor Has Not Forgotten
Bitter Things Printed About Him,
and Is Out WithH is Tom ahaWk.


ATLANTA, Feb 24.-It is said that
Governor Gambler has on his war paint
and is out with his tomahawk after
scalps. He has succeeded in landing one
victim-Douglas Glsssner, clerk Of the
prison commission.
Governor Gambler and Glessner were
meyer the best of friends. 1t will be re-
membered that when Governor Gambler
made the race for the Office of hief ex-
ecutive the Griffin News, of which Chess
ner is proprietor, printed some rather
bitter things about Col. Gambler.
Col. Gambler, when he became Govern
or Gambler, did not forget Mr.. Glessner.
1t is stated that the new governor had
been in Office but few days when he
sent for the commissioners and talked
the Gless. er matter over With them.
The prison commissioners were APP
pointed by Governor Atkinson, and
Glessner was an Atkinson man, SO it
seemed that he had nothing to fear
from the governor; but for some reas u
the commissioners saw it like Governor
Gambler.
One thing is certain, Glessner is to
go. l. has been rumored some days, but
your correspondent finds that it is now
positively the intention of the commits
Soners to release Glessner on March i.
" no will succeed the present clerk is t
yet known.
The name of Jesse G. Boone has been
mentioned and be would probably get
the place if he wanted it, but rumor saws
MIR. Boone has withdrawn his applica>
ton. Mr.. Boone is warm personal
friend OF Governor Gambler, and it is said
he has at times been of very material aid
to the governor. Gen. Evans, enc of the
commissioners, favored Boone.
March is very near, and if the com
missioners do not know who is to sues
ceed Mr. Glessner, it is indeed strange.
When asked about the rumor of The
probability of him being succeeded in
office and for particulars, Mr.. Glessner
said
"Of course there is no use of me play
ing ignorant with you. | have heard
something about the matter of which
you inquire, but have nothing to saw ::
my position is a subordinate one and il
would be unbecoming in me to speak of
matters relating TO the business of the
commissioners. You will have to go TO

AN ARABIAN LEGEND.

Yonder on Moriah's mountain whereto nations
journey in holy prayer and to the ruins of which all
contessors of tradition look with pous eyes there
was in former times poor piece of ground. 1t was
the only heirloom of two brothers living together in
harmony and piety, Arabna and Abna, who worked
the rocky, unproductive ground with unremitting
care and thus by the of their brow had turned
it into frut-bearing field. After the harvest they
divided the shares in two equal parts and there they
stayed until the rainy season, when each took his
part home. Thus they lived through many year in
undisturped quiet. But Alma could not find
the sweet rest OF the workngman for care for the
welfare of his brother kept him awake How"
thought he my brother, who has wife and chill
dren to support, should not have larger portion
than me, solitary bachelor?' For long time he
studied how he could augment his brother S part
without hurting his brothers tender feelings
thought struck him He rushed from his co UGH hur
ried to the field put the larger part of his portion to
his brothers side, and FASTENED home, highly pleased
with his artihce. By curious accident ARABIA the
older, was disquieted on the same night by the same
