THE PEAKS REMOTE.

Out In the June-green meadows,
All OF the pure spring weather,
Full OF the rain and the sunshine
Love and / fare together.
Love and / fare together
Joyously, hand I'm hand;
Knee-deop In ox-eyed daisies
Down In the meadow-land
Fair indeed ave tho meadows
And glad--till | FIT my eyes
To where. on the dim horizon.
The purple mountairf3 rise
Rise with the charm of distance,
Glow with the lure of height.
Plead in the voice OF knowledge.
Call in the tone OF might.
Al. Il ~ sweet in the meadows.
And sweeter Is Love, | know,
And only down In the daisies
HIS random footsteps go.
Only the meadows know him,
And the meadows are best. I own
But the purple mountains call me.
And a man must climb alone.

MIR. COX MAKES REPORT.
Enumerator Did Not Find 5000 PeO-
pie For the Elks.

Mr.. W. r. Cox, who was commits
stoned by the council to take a cen
sus of Dawson, completed his work
Friday, and filed his report with City
Clerk Bell
According to Mr. Cox's report he
counted 4,414 people in Dawson
and vicinity" He enumerated the
inhabitants in the suburbs outside of
the corporate limits.
The result of the census means
that there will not be an Elks lodge
in Dawson, as under the cOnstitu-
ton and bylaws of that order lodges
cannot be instituted in towns of less
than 5000 population. While Mr..
Cox was employed by the council he
will be paid for his work with money
that was subscribed for the purpose
by the gentlemen who had enrolled
their names as members of the pros
pective Elk's lodge. The amount sub
scribed for this purpose was SIS.
Judging by the result of Mr.. CoX's
enumeration the federal census,
which will be taken next spring, will
show a population in Dawson of
nearly 1000.

JNO. R. MERGERS announcement FOR CONGRESS-
Prominent Business Man and Farmer Issues Formal
Address to the Voters of the District.

DAWSON, Ca, Jan. 10, 1910.-To
the Voters of the Second Congress
sional District of Georgia. / have
long cherished an ambition to offer
my services to the people of the Sec
ond Congressional District of Geor-
gia as their representative in Con-
gress. | little anticipated, however,
the unfortunate death of my friend
and ellow-townsman, and your dis
tinguished representative, whereby a
vacancy was occasioned and an cleo
ton of a representative necessitated.
| now have the honor to offer my
services to the people of the district
as their representative for the uneX-
pired term, and in so doing wish
them to understand that | lay no
claim to office on account of any abili-
ty peculiar to the professions, politi-
clans or public benefactOrs. The ma
terial practical, or he business end
of life has fallen to my lot. Along
these lines my fitness lies, if | have
any, and along these lines my success
must be judged and attested by the
people. From the farm in youth
went into the mercantile business and
then into banking Later I returned
to my first love, the farm and agri-
cultural pursuits, in which | am now
engaged.
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1910-01-12

My wide and extended business ex-
perience, l believe, has enabled me
to see the needs of the people and
prepared me to incorporate their de-
mands into such laws as will best adj
vance their interests.
Personal friends have urged my
candidacy, but beyond this | am not
the candidate of any caucus or COM
bination. If elected l will owe no al
legiance to private interests, but, be-
lieving that the Office belongs to the
people, / am of the opinion that their
interests only should be served, and
that they should decide to whom the
Office should go.
My candidacy is the deliberate
seeking of the office by the man.
ask it at your hands because | sim
cerely believe that my long years of
experience in business and contact
with the people will enable me to
creditably fill the high office to which
| aspire.
l ask the office at your hands, sub
iect, of course, to the action of the
Democratic Executive Committee OF
the district, and if elected | promise
to faithful guard and promote the
interests of the whole people in the
halls of the National Congress- Re
spectfully, JOHN r. MERCER.
