Certainly the proper thing for their candl-

Editor Mercer is philosopher as well as
snstler. Temporary failure to get new county
Ias not caused him to growl and grumble and
@ck two ways at time. He has returned to
s sanctum and is already up to his eyes IN
ork for the present and future OF his notable
Star.
The Gazette regrets that, in the shuttle,
|4aitor MERGERS county lost out, at the same
Ame admiring the pluck of his people IN arising
renewed effort from the debris OF deteat.
IA if thew don't get their legislation until 1907,
#sft county will be in a position to help them
|Siifton Gazette.
We are much obliged to you Bro. Herring.
La have every promise that our county shall be
Seated at the next session of the legislature.
We have vet to find single man in the legls-
lure, or out of it, who hesitates to admit that
.om the point of necessity and from the stand
INIT of real merit we have very strong case
ia one that will ultimately win.

II Fitzgerald, it seems, is not very highly
leased with it's city court. What the objections
- we have not learned but presume the main
Ia is that it is limited to one militia district
ella Star.
The fact that the court is limited in it's jur-
.aiction is the only real objection to it.
Things are not what they seem, in this in
hnce in particular, for Fitzgerald is highly
leased with its city court. The DIRECTORS and
ault finders are not Fitzgerald, and cannot IN
#y sense of the word be considered friends OF
Ia citv court. The fault finders are those who
ia not desire and would not appreciate any sort
Il city court. People who worked for the city
burt and people who stand for the admlnlstra-
In of Justice and for law and order are well
Heased with the court and it's officers.

We do not understand what Editor Small

northern county as being right and one of the
