Politics seems to be the main topic
here now. Estill and Query seem to
be about even. leaving only a few for
Terrell. Candidates for county offices
are numerous. and there are four who
are very desirious of representing APP
ping county in the general assembly,
and three would be state senators.
The people in this section favor slic-
ing off a piece of Appling and Coffee
counties and making a new county,
with its seat at Hazlehurst, and this
new county idea is likely TO play an
important part in the election of mem
bers of the legislature.

TUE INpIAN wAR CLAWS.

Gainesville Sun: The Florida Indian
war claims have been paid. after a
lapse of over twenty-five years since
the first favorable report was made by
a committee of the United States Con-
gress The provision for the payment
of these claims was incorporated in the
omnibus claims bill which passed the
Senate Tuesday afternoon and the
House Wednesday morning. The pay
ment of this claim by the United States
after it had been standing for so long
is due entirely to the excellent and I'M
firing work of the Florida delega ton
in Congress. Never in the history Of
the pending of these great claims has
Florida delegation worked as has the
present one. The work has been ac-
complished against odds, and while
number of other claims equally as just
and having practically the same bear
ing have been side-tracked by Con-
gress. The passage of this bill means
about ST15,000 net for the state of Flor
ida. Some of this is held by the state
and is included in her public debt,
while claims are held by citizens in all
parts of the state. 1t means a reduc-
tion of the state debt and consequently
a reduction in state taxation

are being made by the committee on

forms of entertainment have been
planned for the visitors. among which
will be an excursion on the river,
dance and a banquet. The holding of
