Letter fir ON Mr.. Payne.

Dear Journal. I've started
from my home on the 10th ult.
on a trip to friends and relatives
in Georgia. En- route we stopped
over at Birmingham, Ala. and
visited some of the places of IN
terest. Birmingham is a wide
awake place of business. Her
houses are compactly built and
are superior to those of many cit
les of the South. You would be
almost astonished to see and con-
template the manufacturing IN
terests that are in operation IN
Birmingham, more especially her
iron interests, rolling mills, foun-
dries and many other things of
interest. The streets are broad,
well graveled, and furnish the
very best facilities for travel.
The street car system seems
up-to-date, with all the modern
improvements as to the electric
car system. After a while OF
sight seeing we took a street car
for East Lake, nine miles from
the city. 1t is a very beautiful
sheet of water, transparent as a
sunbeam, it's placid waters gilt
tering like so many diamonds,
upon whose bosom can be seen
fishing smacks and boats of pleas
ure filled with merry souls whose
hearts were full of mirth. The
surroundings of the lake are very
attractive. Dense groves which
are scattered everywhere, enable
YOU to keep cool and listen to the
most enchanting band music you
ever heard. After we had visited
the city to our entire satisfaction
my wife and / resumed our trip,
taking the cars next morning at
six o'clock. We arrived at States
borough formerly Of Cass county.
But During the war its name
was changed and took the name
of the immortal Barton who was
killed in the first battle OF Man
assas. There we were met by al
aged uncle who received us with
open arms. Conveyance being a
hand we were soon ushered int
the presence of our relatives, Capt
James Jackson, one Of the OLE
land marks Of Barton county VIII
holds a high and honorable posi-
ton in the county in which he re
sides. Mr.. jackson has a mic
home and a real nice family.
Georgia, still in many neigh
borhoods, holds on to old tim
customs. She has a diversified
farming interest. Wheat, corn
rye and oats are grown very sue
cessfully in northern Georgia
while fruits, except tropical, ar,
grown extensively, all Of which
find ready and eager markets q
remunerative prices. Last bu
not least hog and hominy ar
still in the lead. Georgia, yo'
might say, is a land Of verse an
song. Her people are kind, char
table and generous even to
fault. Their doors swing Wlu'
open even to strangers. The prln

CLOSING DOWN
ON SUFFERS
Grand Jurors Getting Their
Evidence Into Shape so
as to Bring Indictments

OAKLAND, Aug. 24-The Grand Jury
has been in session the entire day,
examining into the testimony given be-
fore it in regard to the stuffing of the
county stationery bills. and it is be-
lieved will bring in indictments against
the guilty parties.
Otto L. Hasse, former manager of the
Central News Store, who made out the
bills and presented them for payment,
was In attendance most of the day, al
though he was not called except for a
few minutes. The jurors have all the
evidence heard by the Supervisors when
they concluded that the bills were alto
gether irregular and cut them down
from $4,000 to $4,000, and it is believed
cannot come to any conclusion in the
matter than that the persons who made
out the bills and got the benefit of the
charges are the responsible parties.
