The bust neaa men of A agitata feel buoy out and hopeful. They are preparing for the largest trade In years. The Herald bee taken a concensus of the Opinions prevailing among busi ness men In regard to the outlook and we present the eeeull below: The Willie tk Rountree Co., who nr# esrlualvely wholesale., said that they anticipated a good fall trade. Their drummers reported tbet the rouutry merchant* bad all been buying cau tloualy end consequently bad but smell stock*. The same could he said of tha farmers —none of them had bought say large quantities of supplies. Through out the sections that they traveled dtr'- eryone was ferth g good and they saif no reason why a fine business should not be done. L. J. Behaul. the pawnbroker, is about as well posted a man as there is in Augusta on general business con ditions. He some* in contact with Sll kinds and conditions of people and H consequently especially well qualified to apeak. He thought the prospects were very good. He had recently talk ed with quite a number of the repre sentatives of the large Northern and Western wholesale houses and to a man they arc unanimous In their opin ions. Some of these men have told Mr. Schaul that already they have done more business than In a corresponding time In four year. He considered the outlook bright. Bryan luiwrence, proprietor of the Arlington hotel, stated that In recently looking over his books he found that the past summer had been the best In the history of the hotel and he Is thor oughly satisfied that there will be a fine business in all lines this fall. The traveling men are beginning to arrive and those with whom he talked had but one story to tell—they were all doing well and expt:cted to do bettor. These are moat encouraging stnte ments. Mr, Lawrence spoke of the lo cal oat crop, saying that he had raised some fine grain which was worth. In small lots (say eight and fen bags) 45- rents per bushel. The quality of the Western oats this season was not good. Another business man seen was one of the traveling represetatlves of J. B. White & Co., who had not been in town over an hour or so from a trip into the conntry. This gentleman sim ply reiterated the statements of the other traveling men. Some of the farmers were reeling n a little blue over the low price of cot ton, but the crop in point of quality was the best looking of any in the past ten years. All of the merchants In his territory were looking forward to an unusually prosperous season. The following were among the num ber: Vail & Co.—"We expect as usual a good fall business." Allen Jt Baxley—‘lt Is hard to say what the prospects are, but we expect a good business —better than last fall, anyway."

Brooks —"We expect buetnem to he brisk this fall, owing to the soldiers In the Booth Everything I* bright for a fair fall trade." George Fargo- "Business will tm prova gradually, but U depend* entire ly on tbe cotton crop." Luther Stalling**-*’ We expert noth ing brighter than fak) year.

Evans —“Everything Indicate* a good fall trade. Some little advance In cotton is very encouraging." Bussey & Carswell—"We expect only n moderately good trade if the price of cotton holds up and does cot go too low." John F Holmes—" With five cents cotton 1 don't think there are much prospects fer a big business.” E. G. Rogers—“l am a pessimist; al ways think the prospects are good— for nothing. I have been waiting for good things for twenty years and they haven't got here yet." J. T. Buckley—"l expect a apod bus iness this fall.” i Solomons & Zerbo— “Our prospects are unusually bright.” Maurice Walton "We have very good prospects for the fall business.” T. M.
