soil is the source from which all
prosperity springs and the farm.
er Is the instrument that brings
from it it's bounties and it's bless
ings to the human family. The
entire people Of the county
should be proud of it's honest
and intelligent class of farmers
and join them in thankfulness to
the great Giver of all Good for
the success which has crowned
their labors in 1902.
1t is not alone the farme.s who
have succeeded in their aims
and efforts during the past nota-
BILE year. All classes have pros
pered. The several towns and
villages of this county all show
marked evidences of prosperity.
The merchants have done a
large and remunerative business.
We cannot recall failure any
where amongst this large and
active class. We do not know Of
single case in which any of them
have been placed voluntarily or
involuntariIy in bankruptcy. 70.
their credit be it said that with
their debtors during the long
waiting upon themfor their dues
they have exercised, leuiency and
clemency and have shown q pro-
er apprehension and apprecia-
ton of the situation. But few
mortgages have been foreclosed
and the court dockets show no
suits at law. In all this they
have exhibited wisdom and liber-
ality and honorable dealing
throughout a crucial period.
The schools of the county have
prospered. The teachers have
done their duty aud have made
rapid advancement in their work.
The standard of education has
been elevated and the general
interest in this great promoter
of the public welfare has been
enlarged. The number Of educa-
BILE children has been largely
increased. Take it altogether
this important interest has ad-
vanced greatly. In all matters,
Lee county has made rapid for
wards strides during the last
year. All it's people have shown
pluck and spirit in all their af-
fairs. In entering upon the
duties and responsibilities OF the
year there is but little to regret,
much to be proud of and great
deal to be confidently hoped for.
The year opens auspiciously for
all our people. Let us in thank
fitness for the blessings under
which We live put our shoulders
to the wheel and labor still
harder for the upbuilding of glo-
rious Lee county, the best country
under our bright sun.

In A Great State.
LEE COUNTY TIE BEST OF ALL
Great Progress and Improvement. Big Cot
ton and Corn Crops.
EVERY BODY DOING WELL.

The people OF Lee County enter
upon the new year in fine shape.
Upon this fact the Journal ex-
tends to them it's warmest con-
gratulations. The conditions now
existing are reversed from those
existing when the year that has
just closed begun. Then we had
the trials and troubles brought
upon us by two consecutive
failures of crops and the conse-
quent depression, and discourage
ment that pressed so heavily upon
us. Under the smiles, OF benign
Providence we have been blessed
with bounteous crops and good
health for year and the burthens
whicn bore US down then are now
removed. rhe prospect ahead is
good and our hearts are light and
cheerful All hands are eager
and willing for the tasks of the
new year and every body enters
into it with renewed courage and
confidence. We have never witness.
ed SO complete a change as has
come over the spirit of our people
worked in the short space of a
year as marks our whole popula-
tion now. Distrust, discomfort
and business disorder was then
the rule. Now these are replaced
by hope, courage and contentment.
The fruits of the last year lie be-
fore us in rich abundance and we
enter the new one encouraged and
hopeful.
The advancement in all our
business affairs during the past
year has been phenomenal. The
toiling husbandman has reached
richer reward for his wearisome
labor than in any year of the
county's history. The crops of
cotton and corn have been the
best ever produced in the county.
1t is true that in small localities
this is not the case, but the fact
applies to the county as Whole.
The great staple is the chief re-
lance of the farmer as money
crop and its price has been
maintained throughout the season
of marketing at fair and re-
numeratlve figure. The corn
crop, upon which all depend as a
food product has been the largest
and best ever grown and large
quantities OF it, in excess of the
county's needs, have been shipped
abroad and marketed at fne prices.
The farmer has prospered to his
hearts content. He has realized
his hopes, has paid the debts that
accumulated against him during
the two years Of short crops and
frustla ated his plans and goes at
his present years labors with Wig.
or and bright anticipations. The

HEARING POSTPONED

For License at Savin Rock-Lcense
 Refused for Dixwell Avenue Place.
 The hearing which had been set for to-day on the application of Charles MacDuff for a license for his place at Savin Rock has been indefinitely post poned. It is understood that MacDuff has promised to make certain changes in his place which will suit the remon- strants and if carried out will result in the withdrawal of all opposition. There was objection to his place because he ran a dance hall and he will probably eliminate this feature. This arrange ment has nothing to do with the re- monstrance against four other places at Savin Rock now pending,
 The county commissioners have re- fused license to Charles Ford, who wanted to keep a saloon in J. F. Calla- hans old place at S29 Dixweli avenue. Neighbors objected to Ford's license on account of unsuitability of place, and they are sustained by the commission CTS.

The funeral of Charles Ezra filling, who died at the general hospital in New Haven April 30, was held from his late residence here Saturday after noon, Rev. E. J. Beach, pastor of the Congregational church, officiating, the 1nterment being in the local cemetery. Mir. filling. was fifty-seven years of age, being born in Hamden April 26, 1S44.

MT. filling comman- ded universal respect among his wide circle of acquaintances and was held in the highest esteem by those whose social or business interests brought them in frequent contact with him. Social and unassuming in disposition, honest and upright in character, faith full in the performance of private and public duties, his loss will be deeply regretted by the community. MT. AL ling leaves a widow, one daughter, Miss Mary M., who is a graduate Of the Northffeld seminary, and one son, Mor- ris E., of Brown, 'O2, and at present in Yale, D. S., '05. The family have the sincere sympathy of the people general ly.
 Three funerals within period of eight days is an unusual record for Northford. Martin Hartigan, who conn., mitted suicide by hanging, was buried April 24; Ellen, wife of Patrick Costello, was buried from St. Johns Roman catholic church; New Haven, April 2S, having died from pneumonia; and Charles E. filling, buried May 2.

 these lived within short distance of each other.
