“The New Era of June 15th contained an edi

W. Crimes will he our next congressman, and it
is nothing but right that he should be. If he en

never had a nominee from these counties. In

travels with the patent churn also has a praise
worthy purpose in view. He desires to sell you a

A Picnic On Rose Hill.
Yesterday was delightfully spent by several
participants of a picnic on Rose Hill, chaperone#
by Mrs. II. A. Gibson, of Summerville, Ala., and
Mrs. M. A. Sheridan, of Macon, which was given
by little Willie complimentary to his cousins,
Charles and Julius, sons of Capt. Geeslln, and
Master Fleni Sheridan. All had a nice time
riding on the flying jenny, grabbing in the grab
bag and swinging.

Meeting of Good Templars Lust Night.
Quite a large number of the old members of
Columbus lodge of Good Templars met Inst night
in Odd Fellows’ hall for the purpose of con faring
together in view of reorganizing the lodge and 1
making an effort to revive the order in the city.
While uo formal act ion was taken, it was gen-
built up our Southern Rifles.
—Mr. James A. Lewis has had several new ten-
! ant houses erected on the southeast commons.
| —Those who do not believe Columbus is pros-
! pering have only to take a ride through the city
and note the many new buildings that are going
up.
THE FREIGHT RATES.
( What Is Hi*/hit Bone Tomiril Ailjastlmr the Differ-
i*nres Between the rniiipctitur Lines.
A conference of officials representing lines
competing for business at Columbus was held m
j .Savannah a few days ago, and while it was
i understood that an amicable settlement of the
, rate war was reached, there has been no official
, announcement to that effect. The Savannah
News has the following on the subject:
! “The railroad freight war in the Chattuhoo-
1 ehee, Apalachicola and Flint river territory has
! been fixed up, and on August 2d rates will be re
stored to the old figures. The competing roads
were the Central, the Savannah, Florida and
Western and the Florida Railway and Navigation
j company. Each made inroads into the territory
of the others, and the three made a very lively
! fight of it. Evidently all are tired of the wur. An
! effort was made two months ago to amicably
I settle the matter, but the conference was mt
j wholly successful, The blame was put upon the
! Florida Railway and Navigation company.
When tlie rates are restored the roads will with
draw from each other's territory and will work
their own.”
The attention of an officer of one of the lines
was called to tlie above paragraph last night by
deed, we know they will.
“‘While in Atlanta some weeks since we were
iu conversation with one of the most influential
men of Troup, who said to us, ‘.should any num
from these lower counties bring to the convention
their united support, he ought to be nominated,
and would he.' Grimes will have that support,
and he will be nominated and elected.’

filling prescriptions written by regular practicing

the election of new officers.

stealing her from Mr. White, who is overseer for

district, has the following complimentary notice
ofthe nomination:
“Without derogattng anything from Mr. Har
ris, it may be said that the fourth Georgia dis
trict has not worsted itself by nominating Hon.
[ Thomas W. Grimes, of Columbus, for congress.
Mr* Grimes is one ofthe ablest young men in the
