Value Of a Devoted Friend.

A poor man may be said to be rich
in the midst Of his poverty 80 long az
he enjoys the interior sunshine of a
devoted friend. The wealthiest OF
men. on the contrary, is poor and
miserable If he has no friend whom
he can grasp by the hand and to
whom he can disclose the secrets OF
his heart.-Cardinal James Gibbons.

You know 'tis said "the sword

the sword, especially politicians.
I am certainly surprised at the
suicides in regard to the dispen-
sary in that county-at least this
is my opinion. We have no poll
ticians here as yet, though we are
on tie eve of statehood and are
looking for full crop to loom up
soon. just now wo call that old
vcse true:
lie wore MI ancient suit Of clothes,
His shabby coat was rent:
We knew he was millionaire
Or wasn't worth cent.
But with you he might be n poll
tlcian.
This is Il ;ine country and money
Is plentiful as we'll as work. Con
ditons arc different here from that
Of Georgia. ] heard d travelling
man say he went to somo town
there and went into the hank and
asked the cashier if he could give
h,m change for Il fifty dollar bill,
and the NAH tod him he didn t
know-.he had never saw one.
Give the boys my regards and

Lets Have the Trolley.

Pickens, r. r. D. No 3, Editor
Sentinel Journal; I have been motto
ing in your paper some very inter
esting communications concerning an
inter urban trolley line from Polk
county via Marietta and up the Dole.
noy valley and thence to Pickens.
This line Of road, if built, means
much to Pickens county. The Oole-
noy valley is one of the finest Sec
tions IF country in the state. Though
it is about 10 10 Is miles from q rail.
road, yet it has hundreds Of acres of
land ranging in price from $75
to 800 per acre, and q lot Of 1t
couldn't be bought at thai PRICE. If
there was y trolley line running
through this section it's value would
be almost immeasurable, as there is a
fine belt Of timber on each side of
the valley that would give hundreds
of men employment. The Gordwood
would become very valuable, and
there are millions of feet of the finest
poplar and oak timber that could be
used for lumber which would bring q
fancy price.
AS for mountain scenery and q
summer resort this stctun would
hardly be excelled, as we have Mt.
Pinnacle, over ~3,400 feet above sen
level; also Table Rock and other
places OF as fine scenery az can be
found in the United States. The
best of water is found at the foot of
those mountains, and had we a troll.
Icy line hundreds of people would
come here for the summer. The
Saludas furnish abundant water
power, SO there is nothing in the way
to hinder Pickcns from getting this
road. There would be very little
grading to do from Gowansville,
Greenvile county, by Marietta and
up the Snlu"" river to Oo!enoy, then
np the rriioy to the headwaters Of
NWclco " liz Nnd on to Pickrns.
Woo m@r g." assured TINT Oolenoy
and Twelve Mile arc anxious for this
road, and will contribute much TO
the building of it. It can be built
very cheap, as there is an abundance
OF crosstie timber all along the
above described route and can b,
laid down cheap. ...
l hope the Sentinel.Journal vii
continue to pull Tor this road ais
every citizen of Pickons county, n
the whole county would be beuefite
and could hardly be excelled.
