HAVE FAITH.

Have faith in the future? Have faith
in the land? Stick to it. 1t will not
dlsappoint you in the long run If bad
laws are in the way they will be re-
pealed, provided you help compel their
repeal. The good common sense of the
American people will right all political
wrongs. Our resources are almost un-
limited, our recuperative powers are
unsurpassed. The world must have
our products. Conditions are rapidly
changing Population is now increas-
ing faster than farm areas, and demand
is rapidly overtaking supply. The flu
ture is bright for the level-headed Am
erican farmer. He may not get rich,
but he will be prosperous; he can have
plenty of peace. The ambition to be
rich has ruined thousands, and the pos
session of riches thousands more 1t is
an unholy ambition, and its realization
is too often accomplished by the sur
rendering of every element of true dap
piness. Be content with competence,
with plenty, with virtuous life, a
happy home, loving wife, children
who will honor their parents.

A SUCCESSFUL MEETING,

The Methodist church, Sunday night,
was crowded by a vast congregation of
men, old and young, to hear DR.. w. w.
Wadsworth's sermon "to men only".
1t has been many day since we have
seen gathered such large crowd of
men at a religious service. Some
twenty voices made up the choir, with
Mr.. Ed Manning at the organ. The
text was from Proverbs-"The way of
the transgressor is hard. j" The preacher
dealt with the vices of whiskey drink
ing, profanity and RIGHTEOUSNESS, and
for one hour he held the closest atten-
ton of that vast crowd The sermon
was plain. practical and pointed, and
calculated to do great good tits con-
clusion, probably one hundred gave
their hands to the preacher as a token
to lead better lives At the same hour
at the old Methodist church, meeting
for ladies only was held, a large con-
gregatlon being present. Mrs. G.. p.
Gwin and Miss Stephens conducted the
service, which proved profitable and
helpful.

FENCE, OR NO FENCE.

There is nothing that the citizens of
Marietta could do which would tend in
a great measure to the identifying of
the city than the removal of all fenc-
ing Any one can satisfy themselves
on this point by contrasting the present
with the former appearance of the
Presbyterian and Episcopal church
yards.
Then too, quite number of our citi-
zenS have chosen to remove their fenc-
ing, and others seeing it going to de-
cay did not have the money, possibly
to rebuild. This is one time where
lack Of means proved blessing. II
the citizens of one street would each
and every one decide to do away with
fences the improvement would be so
noticeable that every street in the city
would doubtless follow suit.
The Park fence ought by all means
to be removed.
Euclid Avenue in Cleveland, Ohio. is
considered to be the finest residence
street in the world, not excepting the
Champs de Elyses in Paris. For ten or
fifteen miles there stretches broad
shady avenue, with parks running
through the entire length. The resi-
dences are magnificent, not one cost
ing, perhaps, less than one hundred
thousand dollars, and many costing
millions. 1t is sight. Which beggars
description, to be able to stand at a
given point and take in at a glance,
long distances where the grassy lawns
are guiltless of fencing,
The closely clipped grass, rich and
even as a velvet carpet, embroidered
with gay flowers, the splashing foun-
tains, and the immense tropic plants
in vases OF Partisan marble-none of
them. lend more to artistic attraction
than this doing away with fencing.
1t does not cost anything, but saves
many thousands of dollars. The man
who builds new residence in this, the
morning, almost, of the twentieth CEN
fury, and puts fence in front, is old
foggyish.
Marietta prides herself on her pro-
gressiveness. Let's up with our manu-
featuring plants, but down with our
fences. CITIZEN.

JAIL BREAKING.

On Friday evening about Z O'Clock
Deputy Sheriff rewberry went up the
rear stairway of the Jail, followed by
colored woman, Linda Nichols, with a
bucket of water, to give the prisoners.
As soon as he entered the door he was
grabbed by the lapel of his coat by Sam
Stokes, a 200 pound negro giant, who
had piece of iron bar some eighteen
inches long in his hand and attempted
to strike Mr.. Dewberry on the head.
Mr.. Dewberry threw up his hand and
caught the iron bSr, thus breaking the
force OF the blow as it descended upon
his head. He held on to the iron bar
when the negro Stokes grabbed at Mr..
Dewberry's pistol, which was sticking
out OF his pocket, but Mr.. Dewberry
knocked his hand away and got his
hand on the pistol. Two of the negroes
then encircled Mr.. Dewberry's arms by
grabbing him to overpower him, when
he called for help. This frightened the
prisoners and they threw him to one
side and dashed out of the door. The
fourth prisoner was stopped by Mr..
Dewberry and pushed back into the
jail He then closed the door and gave
the alarm. Pursuit was begun and sew
eral men joined in the chase. Mr.. Bird
Parks attempted to stop Sam Stokes
with pistol, but the negro, with
rock in his hand, defantly faced Mr..
Parks as he snapped it several times in
his face. He also threatened Mr.. Simp
Jackson with rock who rushed up on
him. Mr., Charley Trout, swift. of
foot, overlook Stokes on Lemon street.
ran up against him and knocked him
down. -Four or five men then lpiled on
Stokes, but he fought them like tiger
until resistance was futile, and he was
returned to Jail with bleeding head.
Further on, near Mr.. Gid Morris,
Sheriff Bishop, on his horse, headed off
VIII Johnson, captured him, and he
was once more placed behind the bars.
Messrs. Clarence Power and Harry
HUMPHREYS rendered efficient assis-
lance. Sheriffs Bishops and Dewberry
did some lively work from the time of
the escape to the capture.
George Roberts eluded his pursuers
and hid in the brush and got away. al
though the officers remained up nearly
all night in the search
The negro Stokes and four other
prisoners, sawed tap off a bar by the
use of steel spring converted into a
saw, which he had hidden in his shoe.
The tap off, the bar was pulled back by
main strength. breaking off, thus max
ing an opening large enough to crawl
through out into the corridor, where
they secreted themselves near the
door and waited for the visit of Mr..
Dewberry to assault him. Mr.. Dew
berry, thus taken by surprise, was at
the mercy of the murderous gang in
their desperate attack upon him, but
he showed pluck and bravery and
fought manfully to save his own life
and to keep the prisoners from getting
away.
Stokes is in jail on a charge of as
saulting negro woman with an axe
johnson for car breaking and Roberts
for horse stealing.
Cobb county needs new jail and we
hope one will be speedily built.

BLINDED.

A Korean bride has her eyelids pasted
together until she has been three days
a wife, says Mrs. S. L. Baldwin, who
has lived for more than twenty years
in China and Korea. There are some
wives in Marietta whose eyes are closed
or pasted together ever since they
married. If they were not blinded to
the conduct of their liegelords, there
would be several divorces in short
order.

New orleans Quiet.

New Orleans, La, July 28.-Contra-
ry to expectations last night passed
with little disorder. The prompt ac-
ton of the mayor in distributing
squads of armed men through the city
and the fact that the negro, Charles,
who caused the death of Emente, is
dead, seems to have had good effect
in Quieting the populace. Negroes APP
parently are glad Charles is dead. To
day they appeared in larger numbers
than for several days at places where
they are employed. Mayor Capde-
vile said today he thought it unlikely
there would be any further violence.
Much feeling was expressed against
the police board and there is talk Of
it's removal and the reorganization OF
the police force.
New Orleans. July Whatever
doubt there may have been as to the
identity of the negro, Charles, was re
moved early today. Leonard Pierson
who was with Charles on the evening
Officer Mora was wounded and who
has since been confined in the Parish
prison, positively identified the dead
negro as Charles. Coroner Richard to
day held a post mortem examination
on the body of Charles. He found he
had been shot forty-eight times, and
lady beaten.

A Smooth Young Man Who Gets
Caught Occasionally.

was arrested at Hastings, Neb., the
other day. for sending obscene matter
through the mails to his divorced
wife's relatives. His wife was former
ly Miss Grayce Burns of St Joe, a

OF perjury. He and Don V. Forrest,
a druggist. were witnesses in bas-
tardy case against Herbert L. Wall.
Collingsworth and Forrest testified
that the character of the young lady
involved was not good and many other
things which were disproven. They
afterwards publicly stated that their
testimony was false and given in mall
ice.
Collingsworth and his pal" also
worked a party or two In Las Vegas
some months ago on the fake diamond
scheme. One man here is said to have
advanced $40 on shoddy ring that to
this day isn't half as good as it looks
to be, not having improved any with
age as old wine in the bottles does.
