The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1905-03-08


things have been done, and Will be
done again.
REV. SAM JONES "lectured" in
Blakely few nights ago, and the
Early County News says he Laid 1t
on to Dawson and Terrell county
hot and heavy about the dispensary,
He told us about it to our faces once
upon a time, when it was found out that
there are some things he does not know,
or knowing them is too prejudiced to
give the dispensary, which closed the
saloons in Terrell county, justice. But
there is no doubt that when it comes
to "cussing" out community and
things generally Rev. Samuel Is With
out a rival. =
THE Macon News agrees with Sam
Small that "Uncle Joe Terrell has
made the state a wise and sterling
governor. He has produced nothing
that calls for reform by a would-be
successor" This paper would also
add it's endorsement of Governor Ter
rells excellent administration. GeOr-
gia has had many good governors,
but never a better one than the pres
ent incumbent.
PARSON BROUGHTON left in high
dudgeon a meeting that was held for
the purpose of organizing 1.-The
Associated Charities of Atlanta"
because Hebrews were permitted to
Join. The newspapers say he was
"real angry" and that shows
again how little of real charity
there is in his heart. The relief of
distress is not sectarian matter.
THE first number of Tom Watson's
Magazine is out. From the way in
which the noted Georgian gets after
prominent democrats with a sharp
stick and praises Roosevelt it is evil
dent that he is in very bad humor
about something If he doesn't mind
he will soon find himself in the repub-
lican party. He seems to be danger
Ously near there now.
DIVORCE is not proving to be very
enjoyable for Bob Taylor, in one re-
spect at least Recently number of
towns, on account of his separation
from his wife, have cancelled lecture
engagements with him. Whether mar
riage is a failure or not you must
stick to it. There is seldom any sym
pathy for a gutter after being geared
up for a life-run.
Now it is proposed for the state to
make an appropriation to the fair
that is to be held in Atlanta next fall.
1t is not at all probable that the leg
islature will open the door to the peo-
pies money for any such purpose.
That's not what taxes are paid for.
THAT will be a curious situation
when the next state senate gets to
work. Bill West, Murphy Gambler
and Brick Miller have all positively
stated that they are going to preside
over it's deliberations. 1t will be the
like never before seen in Georgia.
JUDGE DICK RUSSELL is a real far
mer. He plows and hoes cotton and
corn on his Jackson county farm,
that the two gentlemen who
are running for governor as repre-
sentatives of the farmers haven't done
in twenty years, perhaps.
THAT man Vardaman is all right.
A few days ago he personally pro-
tected a second negro from the fury of
an enraged mob of several hundred
people.
THE Thomasville Times says run
ming for president of the senate Is al
most as exciting as being grand
duke.
A TRAIN load of Macon negroes at
tended the Inauguration. Maybe the
president got Whit of the real thing.
You can't blow in Dawson. The
mayor has given orders for the whis-
ties to keep silent.
ST. PAUL has female Hoch. Ora
cious! The men should be on their
guard.
Big Fire in TT. Gaines.
