DAWSON MAN IN BIG DEAL.
Mr.. r. D. Sale Sells Lumber
Company to Syndicate.

The Albany Herald says the Mallett-

Ticknor, its timber lands and its inter
est In the Flint River and Northeast
ern railway. The deal has been in
progress for some time, but the papers
have just been signed up and the deal
closed.
Mr.. T. D. Sale, president of the
Mallett- Gray Lumber Company. who
effected a sale of the property, was
seen by a Herald reporter and gave
confirmation of the rumors which have
been current for several days that the
mill would change hands on the first
of October. The property was bought
by a syndicate headed by DR.. 7. N.
Baker of Macon, and it is understood
that the'price paid was $4,000.
Mr.. Sale is receiving the deserved
congratulations of his friends upon his
successful management of the lum Der
company and upon the contamination
of a sale that's entirely satisfactory to
all who were interested in the Mallett-
Gray Lumber Co.

ON SOUTHERN MOB
Saws Ii Will Continue to Exist.
and May Be More Frequent.

In q recent letter to Supreme Court
Reporter Bryant of Lincoln, Neb.,
Senator Tillmau of South Carolina
defends the recent burning of negroes
in the south. He says
1.-THE act OF the mob at Statesboro
is to be deplored, but more deplorable
is the fact that a whole family of white
people have been butchered-stamped
out by the two 6ends who were lynch
ed and their accomplices. The more
deplorable is the condition In the
southern states which make such a
thing possible and which promises to
make them of more frequent occur
renee in the future.
"Mobs are bad, but they are evidence
of the spirit of liberty. We OF the
south have thrown off the yoke OF the
black majority. We did it because life
had ceased to be worth living on the
terms and conditions which existed
from 1865 to 1876.
"From necessity we used force and
fraud to overcome the negro majority.
The negroes have the memory of eight
years of license, and, inspired by the
actions and utterances OF President
Roosevelt, they have given evidence
only too plentiful of hope and belief
that their time will come again. Race
antagonism and hatred grow apace.
1.-THE whites are resolved to govern
at whatever cost, because experience
has shown that any other course means
ruin. Negro equality is something
that. will mot be tolerated, and if it
comes to war the negroes will be ex'
terminated. The white people OF the
south are On TOD and they will stay
there"

The Americas Press says that DR..
T. B. Wise of the Plains met with
quite an exciting adventure Sunday
morning about 1890 o'clock.
He was called during the early part
of the night to see patient oyer in
Webster county, and in company with
young named Jennings started to
make the call.
AS they were crossing Kinchafoonee
swamp three negroes sprang out from
the roadside. One stopped the horse,
another paid his respects to young
Jennings, while the third proceeded
to interview DR.. Wise.
The doctor had nOintention OF being
robbed, however, and drawing a re,
volver fred at his assailant. This
frightened the horse, which reared,
ierked loose from the negro holding
the bride and dashed forward.
