L. G. Jewell Killed

One Of the most deplorable accidents
ever known in this vicinity occurred on
Tuesday evening at the saw mill of G..
b. Dunks, on the Cornforth place about
two miles southwest OF Elbert, when L.
G. Jewell. a well known resident of this
place, lost his life.
Mr.. Jewell had just stepped to the
side Of the carriage aud given the word
to quit work for the day when a heavy
two by six plank became caught on the
saw and despite all efforts made to hold
it, was hurled through the air with ter
rifle force, striking Mr.. Jewell on the
side Of the head and completely crush
ing his skull. 1t was thought at first
that death was instantaneous, but an
examination proved him to be still
breathing, and he was brought to Ell
bert where every effort was made to re.
vive him, but without success, as he
died three hours after the accident.

OF the inspector, will be started at once.
At the opening of the school term this

Fred Long, chairman OF the school
board, informs us that at the meeting
held last Friday Mrs. Belle Moore, a
daughter Of p. H. Mulligan, was engaged
to teach the first to fifth grades.
A rumor is being circulated to the
effect that, in the coming term, deter
mined effort will be made by the chair
man Of the board to have the Commoner
as the standard text book for all the
higher grades. While we know Fred has
the commoner habit to marked degree,
yet we think the foregoing statement
to be undoubtedly canard, dissent.

that it gives the poor man an opportun-

world in that it gives you all the oppor-

Farmers Bring Good Times.

The farmers in the eastern part OF the
state have been waiting for moisture in
order that they might do their spring
seeding. For while the situation
looked serious, but the recent storms
should insure good crops even though
they must be planted late. The injury
to the fruit crop naturally has depress-
ing effect. SO taking all things into con-
sideration the outlook for the season was
discouraging. The majority Of the
farmers have been awaiting develop
ments. as most of them can afford to do,
but naturally they reduce expenses to
the minimum. But in the meantime
the merchants have found trade very
dull. a situation which is novel to them,
at least during the past few years.
Many of the merchants are not SO fortu
nately situated that they can afford to
await developments with the farmers.
Consequently what little has been said
about dull times has como mostly from
the towns.
Should not this experience bring
home to US the fact that we are all de
pendent upon the farmers? We can
appreciate the fact il we stop to think
that when crops are poor, hard tim es
for all result; SO our boasted prosperity
depends mainly upon the man who is
closest to mother earth. This being the
case, will it not pay the merchants to be
a little more considerate in dealing with
the farmers? They have complained
bitterly sometimes because OF the evil
dent strenuous efforts that are made by
local combinations to advance the price
OF commodities, and even make difficult
or even impossible for him to buy some
OF his supplies where he chooses. On

Uplifting ExerciYes in kentucky

They are great sticklers for the pro-
prieties ald for the observance OF eti-
quette in Kentucky. Hence it is not
astonishing that party of night raiders
knelt in prayer before burning down Mr.
Maddox's tobacco barn.
The exact wording of the epetition has
not been related, but as the barn was
totally destroyed it is not presumed
that the result was contrary to the
spirit Of the invocation.
Nobody will go SO far as to argue
that this is complete vindication of
the efficacy of prayer. And there are
probably those who VIII believe that
the barn burned not because of the
prayer butin spite of it. Confagrations
are not easily stayed on dry night in a
high wind
Some historians relate-some do not
that the "Indians" had service OF
prayer before they rowed out and de
stroyeG the tea in Boston harbor. The
result OF that memorable expedition was
doubtless more generally satisfactory
than the recent incident in Kentucky
and achieved more lasting results.
But the fact that the Kentucky raid
ers knelt down and prayed in the pres.
ence Of the owner OF the barn and his
family was pharisaical demonstration
that somewhat mars the solemnity and
good affect of the service. 1t was what
is generally known as '.rubbing it in
The next time the raiding Kentuckian
embarks on the solemn duty OF destroy
ing his neighbor's property he should be
modest and considerate enough to spare
his neighbor the spectacle OF an appeal
