25 000 telegraphers are pow out on a fake. Preacher J. Webb was bound over this week at Statesboro Ga for wife beating. Mr James H Brown of Jackson county is up on a visit to his parents near Dahlonega. Mr and Mrs Dewey of Florida came in on Wednesday and are stopping at the Tate House. If the disfranchise bill becomes a law it will keep many a poor man from voting. Better let well enough alone.

We do not know why it is thus but hope it will not occur any more.
