Several weeks ago Contractor o. C.

city a comfortable new dwelling house
and now, besides pushing work TO com
pletiOn on Miss Mary Damon's new
twO-story cottages. State Treasurer
Knott's handsome residence, the annex
to Mr.. John Johnston's comfortable
home, a piazza at Mrs. Brevard's resi-
dence and improvements on Mrs Rober-
sons residence on College Hill, he is
generally overhauling the Presbyterian

Just as we were wrestling with the
several big packages containing our
new press (total weight about $12, 800
travelling agent for the Dodson Prin-
ter's Supply Co., Of Atlanta, from
whom the press was purchased He
could give no expert aid in installing
the monster machine, but was well
coined, all the same, as lone of the
family" The pressman who was expect
ed to set up the press, having been una
voidably detained, we are forced to get
out this issue Of The True Democrat as
and also TO leave out
great deal of excellent live matter, in
Guiding valuable correspondence, but
by this time next week we hope TO
have the big machine in running order,
and TO tell our readers something about
it.
Just inside the gate Of the alleywRy
east Of the cotton yard, on Clinton
street, In corner next 10 the warehouse
fence, Monday morning we noticed thir-
teen whiskey TASKS and two beer bot
ties, all bearing bright new labels, show
ing they were just from the case, la
beled as follows: FLORIDA Old Rye"
Paul Jones'" Pedigree, FLORIDA
Club" "Buffold, etc. That there Is a
big sized blind tiger close TO that local
ity, with a pretty good supply Of goods,
there can be no doubt. Atten of off,
cials are again called TO the fact that to
violate prohibition laws il as bad as vio-
lating any other law, and that If they
do not do their duty a good-slZed law
and order league may be organized TO
help them enforce public laws.
