A Contemporary Explains.

From the Early County News.
In Early county twenty-four pa
triots are after five little offices.
That's running some.-Dawson News
Our Dawson contemporary is evil
IDENTIFY poking fun at the list of names
offered for county commissioners.
Only a very few of these are self
announced candidates, the rest be-
imp put in by neighbor5 and friends
who desire that the people shall have
wide range of choice in the selec-
ton of these important officials. The
county commissioners get small pay
and lots of cussing, and but few men
have the nerve to aspire for the po-
sition. We need good and true men
to fill these five little offices, and
they can be found in the list present
ed to the people for their selection
tomorrow.

ABNORMAL WEATHER.

March treated the country to at
Imospheric conditions the like of
which was never before experienced.
Instead of frost and ice and cold
and clustering weather we had to put
up with the heat and discomfort of
sultry July. The mercury scared
around so during the day, and at
night it was warm, too. Even to the
northern section of the country and
to the border of Canada this swell
tering heat penetrated. Chicago,
Philadelphia, Boston and New York
saw the mercury in the thermometer
driven up to sc one day in the shade,
a record not often attained in mid
summer.
This upsetting of the teachings of
the almanac provides a change, but
does not contribute to the happiness
of the people. The ordinary March
is the most dreaded of months, be-
cause it is germ-laden, but even
with this reputation many people
prefer it to the unreasonable roast
ing they have endured.

THE MISSISSIPPI SCANDAL.

The charge that money was used
to defeat Vardeman and elect Percy
as United States Senator for Missis-
sippi has created a profound sensa-
ton over the south, and regret and
humiliation predominant in consid-
Grafton of the subject. MISSISSIPPI
plans have their faults, most truly
and many of us may have been I'M
able to admire Vardeman's ways and
policies, but we have always thought
of Mississippi as a state where men
would disdain to offer or accept
brides in politics. 1t is a most re-
gretable development to occur in
any southern state, and it may be re-
garded as assured that the people
of Mississippi will demand and have
the most rigid and fearless investiga-
ton of the matter, to the end that the
truth may come out and the guilty
men-if guilt be established-re-
ceive the punishment they merit.
We do not believe Mississippians will
be content with anything less, and
that is what other southern states
will expect of Mississippi.

Says 1t Is Only For Relief.

From the Calhoun County Courier.
There has developed some oppOsi-
ton in Terrell and Randolph coun-
ties to the proposed new judicial cir
cult to be composed of Calhoun, Ba-
ker, Early and Miller counties, but
we have not learned of objection
within the counties affected. If the
new plan will give relief to these
four counties in doing away with the
city courts and have enough of the
superior courts to attend to litiga-
ton and other. court matters why
should those in other counties OPP
pose the plan? It is not a scheme
to crafty the ambition of any young
attorneys, nor to interfere with the
political possibilities of any of those
within the territory from which the
opposition comes.

A RoAD-MAKING COMMISSION.

From the Savannah News
There is some dissatisfaction with
the results that are being obtained
from the state cenvicts employed
on road work. This dissatisfaction
is so evident that it is the under
| standing that the legislature at its
approaching session will undertake
| to provide a system which will be
productive of better results.
The cause of the dissatisfaction
seems to be that in some of the coun-
ties road building is carried on with
out any system. 1t is only a make
shift sort of work that is being done.
The roads lead nowhere, and the
roads themselves are not of a dura-
bic character.
When the question of using the
convicts in road building was under
discussion the Morning News, in a
series of articles, tried to impress
upon the authorities the necessity
for two things, namely, a system of
roads and roads of a durable char
acter. In some of the counties this
necessity was needed, but in others
the county authorities appear to have
used the convicts in constructing
roads to accommodate neighborhoods
rather than roads that would benefit
the general public And the roads
they have built and are building are
not scientifically constructed. Con-
sequently they get out of repair soon
after they are constructed, thus max
ing necessary constant repairs. The
repairs cost almost as much in the
course of year as the roads origi-
nally cost. 1t is apparent, therefore,
that the people will soon become
tired of the expense, particularly as
the roads are not satisfactory. The
question of expense is already the
cause of some grumbling. That this
is so is evident from the suggestion
| that several counties club together
in the maintenance of the convicts-
that is, having only one camp for sew
eral counties.
There is no question that if the
| best results are to be obtained and
the policy of working the convicts
on the roads is going to continue to
be popular there will have to be
| some general plan for handling the
convicts, and the bodybuilding will
have to be done under some authority
having knowledge of road-making
1t is simply folly to spend time and
money in the construction of roads
which will get out of repair in a few
months, and be almost, if not quite
as bad as they were before they were
improved.
If the Legislature takes up this
subject it should go into it thor
Oughly. 1t shouldn't be satisfied
with something it isn't sure will pro-
duce the results desired

GENTLEMEN'S TRADE.

The furniture in Charles Place is
pretty sumptuous. The mirror be-
hind the bar cost many sesterces, and
the cost of the cut-glass would have
supplied many heather with hymn

make Raphael roll over in his grave

SHOULD GUESS AGAIN.

The Dublin COurier-Dispatch makes
the mistake of saying that the CEN
sus of 1900 shows the Eleventh con-
gressional district to be the largest
in Georgia in point of population,
and adds that when the next census
is taken this year it would be found
that the Eleventh has materially in
creased it's lead over all of the other
Georgia districts" All of which is
true except that the census of 1900
shows that the Second district had
10000 more population than the
Eleventh, and the census of this
year not having yet been taken
there is no reliable information
that the Eleventh now has the great
err population. 1t may be further
added that if any district stands
ahead of the Second when the result
of the approaching census is made
known it will have cause to be proud
of a growth and progress little short
of wonderful. Following is the popu
lation the census of 1900 gave each of
the congressional districts in Geor-
gia: First (Savannah), 219, 453; Sec
ond, 237,091; Third, 184,77O; Fourth
(Columbus), 1896; Fifth (Atlan-
tai, 215,527; Sixth (Macon), 1884,

1t is generally conceded that Geor-

given another congressman, and

THE LATE JUSTICE BREWER.

The supreme court of the United
States has lost one of it's ablest mem
bers by death-David Josiah Brewer
For many years Mr.. Justice Brewer
has been a familiar figure in public
life-not alone by his eminent SER
vice on the bench but as we'll as
for his occasional appearance in
print, discussing topics of prime in
terest, and his addresses on public
occasions and before important and
notable bodies.
He was an able and broad-minded
man, publicist in the best sense
of the term. He believed in the con-
stitutiOn inviolate, and criticised
judges who stretched it's meaning to
cover specific eases. He held for the
Golden Rule, and opposed big navy.
He opposed the burdening of pos
terity by piling up bonded debt. He
was an exponent of christianity. He
opposed the Capitalization of fed
eral power, and was for rule by the
people as individual units, states and
cities. He was against so-called i'm
perialism, and was outspoken against
the effort to "assimilate" the Fill
Pine.
Mr. Justice Brewer was fully
abreast with the best thought of the
p times on all questions, and had the
thorough confidence and respect of
the American people.

The Senatorial Primary.

From the Shellman Sun.
The senatorial committee resolved
that the primary be held on the same
day as the state primary. The state
primary has not been called, but it
cannot be held before August.
The resolutions indicate that the
committee expects the three coun-
ties to vote in the nomination for
senator. Clay county's candidate, or
candidates, will come before the
voters of all the counties. This
seems to be the correct way of choos-
ing the senator, while at the same
time the rotation system is not af-
fected in the least.

BRING BACK THE BIRDS.
From the Lumpkin Independent.


The agricultural department at
Washington estimates that the bugs
and worms on the farms of the coun-
try cost the farmers at least 500
100000 year, and that most of this
could be saved if the native birds
were encouraged instead of being
killed off to furnish adornments for
ladies hats. 1t only takes five per-
sons to organize an Audubon Club.
Then, under the law of almost every
state, they can prosecute any one kill
ing a native bird, or even meddling
with a nest. There should be such a
club in every county, and many Of
them should be composed of boys and
girls. If the destruction keeps on
for few years more we shall be a
country without birds.

BE HONEST.

If there is one maxim which ought
to sink deep into the heart of the
young it is to be honest.
A miserable man must be he who
owes another, and does not pay him
from lack of intention. This misery
becomes more acute when the dis
honest one is compelled to face the
defrauded day after day. He under
goes ten times as much suffering for
this offense as the thing is worth.
Look at the tainted bank officers
throughout the country and the law
makers at state capitals with tainted
regulations. What wouldn't they
give if they had the power to be
back where they were before the
breath of scandal had forever dis
graced them? 1t is too late for
these offenders. They risked all,
and lost all
Young man, as you take your
place in the ranks of the industrial
toilers remember that honesty is as
necessary as industry to succeed.
Thievery in whatever form never
pays, and while you may not win
riches by honesty alone you can win
the regard of your employers and the
respect of your fellows and retain
and increase the affection of your
parents, which is far more desirable
than the mere possession of wealth.
