GEORGIA LAWS BEST James Iwrtson Points Got Wherein They Are Superior to Tennessee’s WALKtR’S TAX SEVER OVER sllO That Amount Has Never Been Levied But Once, and Then to Build IN. « Court House. The following very interesting com munication was printed in yesterday’s Constitution: Editor Constitution: —The Chatta nooga chamber of commerce having seen that the laws of Georgia, its constitution and cheap taxes are caus ing its own people to put up factories just across the Georgia line, in Geor gia. at Rossville, has appointed a spe cial committee which has reported to that body, among other things, tjiat our taxes are higher than the real tax - levyhas been. The taxes in Walker county since the war have never ex ceeded for state and county more than sl.lO on the SIOO, and that for only one year, levied to rebuild the court house. No other tax for any other year has exceeded 82 cents on the SIOO. The tax for 1895 was 70 cents, the tax | for 1896 was 72 cents and for 1897 82 ' cents. The chamber of commerce dodged the question, but can't fool people who want to make investments in manufacturing. Its railroad system and river will make it a great city in time, but when the people of Ten nessee, who have not had a constitu tional convention since 1870, voted * down the calling of another convention > last July, people who wanted to man ufacture at Chattanooga or to enlarge their present factories, who have seen millions of dollars pass right over Ten nessessee to go to Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina and North Carolina to * manufacture cotton especially, began to get readyjand are moving to the nearest place in Georgia where they can be on the Chattanooga Belt railroad line, where they can get Chattanooga rates, on all * freights and get the Georgia laws to live under. That committee won’t deny that every new cotton mill and almost every other new ractory which has been located or talked about since the constitutional convention was defeated, has been locat ed at Kensington, Ga., Chickamauga, Ga.,.and Rossville. Ga. Rossville has no fight with Chattanooga Our interests are identified. We have the Georgia law, the Georgia constitution, the Georgia jury system, the Georgia courts to hold out as an inducement to • manufactories to locate at Rossville with in four miles of the Chattanooga, where we can offer them the same freight rates and every other facility that they cau get in Chattanooga. James Morrison. Rossville, Ga., December 29, 1897. It is easy to catch a cold and just as easy to get rid of it if you com mence early to use One Minutes Cough Cure.

Order Making The Announcements Issued in Atlanta Wednesday. Several important changes will occur in the management of the Southern BatnrdayJJanuary Ist, 1898. The order as issued is as follows: ' ‘General Order No. 8: “Effective January 1,1898. the offices of mechanical engineer, general superin tendent, superintendent of transporta t on, general storekeeper and fuel agent will be abolished and the chief en gineer will be relieved of the charge of maintenance of way.

Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty, four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent de sire to urinatle or pain in the back is x also convincing proof that the kid neys and bladder are out.of order. WHAT TO DO There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inability to bold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef fects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urin ate. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonder ful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.

At this time of the year a cold is very - easily contracted, and if left to run its course without the aid of some reliable i cough medicine is liable to result in that - dread disease, pneumonia.

' The State Troops Will Go to Cliicka ' uoauga Next May. > The Rome military boys will be in terested in learning that there will be no encampment at Griffin next year. - This seems au assured fact. But there will be something more in store for i the military boys—at least something > more in the nature of real military - duty. i The adjutant general, it is said, has 9 about decided upon the plan to order , the soldiers of the state, early in May, to Chickamauga for five days. There is no doubt but that the ad jutant general has this plan in mind, though it may be changed before the t time arrives, but that is not probable. The plan of the state authorities is to 1 make the encampment this year more 1 like actual duty than has ever been » known to the state troops in any of the encampments heretofore. All of the troops will be ordered to Chickamauga, and when they retire at night it will be without any idea of what 1 they will be expected to do on the fol lowing morning. The officer of the d .y will issue orders r just as he would do in actual field duty. Sham battles and everything else will be arranged for the instruction of the 3 soldiers. , To Cure A Cold In One Day Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets.

' Through her it is true, Samson is i shorn of his hair and strength, but she protects his aged father, she obtains 1 from Lameoh the promise that Samson’s life shall be respected, she fights against the strongest appeals to her patriotism until extreme pressure is brought to bear; at the moment whenher blandish ments have wrested the secret of his great strength, which is in his hair, fromhis lips, the spectator is led to be lieve that she might not have revealed it, were it not that the craft of a Philistine had led to another woman’s presence and cognizance. After the deed is done she spurns re ward of gold and jewels and declares her remorse and when Samson is blinded and put in the the dungeon she forswears her country and its gods and denounces its King and people.

But a Safe Cara for all Forme of Jindig etion. The results of recent investigation have established, beyond question, the great value of the new preparation for indigestion and stomach trouble; it is composed of the digestive acids, pepsin, bismuth, Golden Seal and similar stom achics, prepared in the form of 20 grain lozenges, pleasant to the taste, conven ient to carry when traveling, harmless to the most delicate stomach, and pro bably the safest, most effectual cure yet discovered for indigestion, sour stomach, loss of appetite and flesh, nausea, sick headaches, palpitation of heart, and the many symptoms arising from imperfect digestion of food. They cure because they < ause the food to be promptly and thoroughly digested before it has time to sour, ferment and poison the blood and nervous system.

The stand taken by the Reed company will probably be followed by the other companies operating in northern Colo rado aud all the miners in the district wiil be thrown out of employment. There is great dissatisfaction among the miners at Louisville over the action of the executive committee aud prepa rations are .eiug in .de to call a mass -1 meeting calling upon the executive committee to rescind its action, many 1 of tiie miners who were thrown out of 1 employment by the action of the Reed company claiming that the action of * the executive cuinuiittee was uuau ' thorized. i ...» 1 RELIEF IN SIX HOURS.

New England Man Who Recently Moved I South Talks. A new England cot o manufacturer 1 who recently moved his mill ma i cbinery from Maine to Georgia, says J of southern labor: “Our labor comes ' Pom the native white people, who are i intelligent and quick to learn. We ' have taken many of them into the ' mill as green hands, but have no dis- 1 Acuity in quickly teaching them. ' They are, in my estimation, superior ' to much of the labor now employed in ' New England, and give conscientious I and faithful attention to their duties They a'e entirely satisfied with their 1 wages, and labor unions and strikes - have no charms for them. ” As to the ; question of profit he says: "I am aware of the value of improved ma chinery, but in spite of the fact that I brought the machinery of the Dixie mill with me from the north, lam satisfied with the results, estimate that the change of location amounts to 33 13 percent, in my ffivor, from a financial standpoint. The climate, cheapness of raw material and labor, fuel and freight rates, have ail con tributed to this change. We enjoy the same rates to the northern mar kets as manufacturers in Atlanta and other large cities. If the mill were equipped with improved machinery the change would amount to at least 40 ner cent, and over instead of one third.” As yet the south has made but little effort or progress in the manufac ture of the finer grades of cotton goods, but the manufacturer above quoted says: **The advantages of the south are such that it must become the centre of production for both coarse and fine goods. The Northern manufacturers also are handicapped by the labor conditions and encoun ter obstacles from this cause which are practically unknown in the south. While much of the original labor in New England consisted of natives of that vicinity, the proportion of for eigners is now very large; in fact,many of the mill-owners are obliged to have notices to employes printed in four or five languages, such is the diversity of nationalities. They are restless and unreliable in many instances.” Besides the cheapness of coal and labor the favorable climate and the nearness to the raw material are the chief advantages the south has over the north in cotton manufacturing.
