 He, of course, had no more sym pathy than any American would have with the view not uncommon in parts of Europe, that a gentleman" is a man who has no profession or busi- ness; who has nothing to do but noth- ing.

FIRE OF INCENDIARY ORIGIN,
i6 Is BclieVed--StOre and POstOfii.e
at Long Creek Destroyed by Fire

Last Thursday night The postoffice
ut Long Creek was destroyed by fire,
believed to have been of incendiary
origin. In the rear Of the building
in which the postoffice was loca ,ed
store was conducted by Mr.. viii
son, and this, too, was a complete
loss.
Fortunately the governments
money-not a large amount-repre-
senting the postoffice receipts, was
saved, Postmaster Geo. Matheson
having carried the cash home With
him in the evening. NJ
1t is believed that the fire was of
irccndiary origin, and there are in
dications that the guilty parties may
be gotten. The suspicious circum-
stances center around certain facts
in regard to the illegal manufacture
or liquor in that section. On several
occasions revenue officers have as q
matter of convenience stopped at
the MathosOn for meals and lodging,
and on the night previous to the fire
had taken lodging there They were
returning from Il raid in which two
large Stilling plants had been da-
stroyed. and thereby hangs tale"
George Matheson is one of the
best citizens of Oconee county--stal-
wart, honest, open. He is opposed
to the illegal traffic in liquor, asJare
the great majority Of the good peo-
pie Of the Long Greek section AMI
other sections OF our hill country.
And. it is generally believed and not
without good grounds for the belief,
that Mr.. Matheson has sustained this
loss as penalty for his good .titi-
zenship and willingness to give shell
ter to the men whom the govern
ment sends out to suppress moon
