Two Opinions.

If paper is Republican we want it
it good and strong, no dish water
kind Republican principles are right
and no Republican editor should sup
port them in half hearted way. One
thing the Herald prides itself on is
that not single issue can be read any
length of time without finding out its
politics. Now and then a Republican
paper can be found that says but little
on politics, but it is more from the
fact such editors know but little on
such topics than anything else.-Clyde
Herald.
Shake, your head is level, your sand
abundant and your liver is doing the
correct thing by YOU We are new in
the newspaper business and do not de-
sire to advise the old wheel horses
how to run their papers. However,
we have read few papers, have had
several years experience in political
affairs and we believe the Republi-
cans in any county in the state will
<cheerfully support an uncompromis-
ing, stalwart Republican paper. A
wishy-washy, mugwump paper run
uHQcI lflC buiu QlSS ulSc VI
licanism, is a libel and a burden on
the party, and the sooner it goes over
to the enemy or turns up its toes the
better. The same rule may be applied
to the opposition papers, A mug
wump demo-pop paper is just as loath-
some as a half-breed Republican
paper. Scratch the editor en- the
back and you will find a coward or a
mercenary chump who is aiming TO
catch a few six-months-fur a-quarter
Republican subscribers. Such pa
per usually has no friends that are
lasting, or no enemies, and when it
curls up, there is not enough who
mourn its departure to make a decent
funeral procession. - Bellvllle Tele-

Since 1891.

Waycross, ca, Dec. T.-ffye- outlook
in the city election is good now for
a clean race. One of the candidates
for Mayor said to-day that, while he
was in the race to win, he expected to
conduct his campaign in such a way
that there would be no need OF friends
becoming estranged. The election will
be held on Dec. 13. This is to be a
white primary, the first ever held here.
The administration ticket is headed
by Hon. Arthur NJ. Knight, who has
been Mayor the past eleven years, with
the exception of one year.
Mr. George r. Youmans is the can

cross about sixteen years. The friends
of the two gentlemen are hard at
work in their interests.

Hon. L. A. Wilson; 1887, w. ]. Smith,

She Is Brought Into the Dispute BE-
tween Coffee md Irwin.

Triton, Ga. Dec 7.-When Coffee
and Irwin counties called in State
Surveyor Wardroper to decide upon
the line between them, Berrien did not
fell herself vitally interested, and
when Mr.. Wardroper decided that the
line of Irwin ran to original lot 26l
land that the meaning of the act stop
ping ii at 26S was palpably an error
as proved by the oldest citizens). Ber-
rien felt secure in her original line.
But after deciding that the old Cof-
fee road, the line in dispute, was To-
Gated east OF the Willacoochee, Mr..
Wardroper then wanted the line be-
tween Berrien and Coffee TO follow the
Willacoochee to the line of Irwin
This was contrary to the act defining
the line between the two counties, and
Berrien protested. By agreement, Mr..
Wardroper was not to file the map of
his survey until the Commissioners of
Berrien and Coffee could get together
and endeavor to agree upon line. By
agreement, they were to meet at Ian
on the first Tuesday in November, and
there Commission Downing went to
represent Berrien, and found no one
to meet him. On his return, he found
a letter from the Commissioners of
Coffee changing the meeting place to
Willacoochee.
Before another meeting could be ar
ranged, Mr.. Wardroper filed a map of
his survey with the Secretary of State,
and notified the authorities of Ber-
rien. This map not only takes the
river as a county line north OF the
Coffee road, but leaves 1t two lots be-
low the line OF Irwin. runs two lots
west and then two north, taking from
Berrien county a total of eleven whole
lots and three fractions, giving seven
and the fractions to Coffee, and four
whole lots to Irwin.
The map does not agree with a sin
gle decision made by Mr.. Wardroper
during his survey, so far as Berrien
is concerned. and takes from the coun-
ty a valuable piece Of territory, which
it does not propose to lose without an
effort.
Berrien's only recource is to file a
protest before the Secretary of State
and this will be done within the thir-
ty days allowed by law.
