FAIR NOTICE.
We trust the season for paying the print
er is not over; if so, we have been sadly
neglected. For several years, we have la
bored earnestly to promote schemes that
were believed to be essential to the pros
perity of our city. We desired a large
number of readers and did not Insist on
advance payments for our paper. Hence
most of our friends and patrons have be
come indebted to us, and our profits have
been great expectations chiefly. We find
that kind of management will not keep up'
a lirst-class paper. A change must be
made. Those who owe us must pay or
their names will bo dropped. We cannot
afford to send the paper again this year
to those who failed to pay us for last year.
No reasonable man would expect this. And
we shall demand the cash In advance this
year. It is best for all concerned, bend in
the money if you wi6h the paper.

■OUR CITY. -
We have every reason to take a hopeful
view of the future of our plucky little city.
We have had, within the last four years,
many serious drawbacks to the advance
ment of our material prosperity; but the
pluck of our people, especially of our young
business men, has surmounted many of
them successfully, and the end is not yet.
And why should we not grow in popula
tion, and wealth? We are blessed with rail
road communication to all points by two
roads, double dally, managed respectively,
. by the two wealthiest and strongest com
panies in the State, the Central and the
Georgia. Our merchants aro live men,
and transact a heavy business annually;
our farmers are industrious and practical
as a class; from twelve to fifteen thousand
bales of cotton are shipped from this point
every season—we have a flourishing Col
lege where tho best Educational advan
tages are offered almost for nothing-live
churches presided over by able pastors—a
climate unsurpassed In the State—good
water—a city government noted for its ex
cellent administration, as demonstrated by
the order and good behavior of the people—
and last, but not least, an exceptional good
society composed of intelligent men and
women, and as many pretty girls as can be
found anywhere In the same amount of
population—then what is to hinder our
piogress to a high plane of prosperity?
True, a cotton factory and a bank would be
powerful adjuncts, and we shall continue to
hope and labor In that direction.

A MUCH NEEDED INPROVEHENT.
It Is a well known fact that a largo por
tion of the city trade comes from the east
ern portion of the county, over the Oconee
river. It is also well known that much the
larger portion of wood hauled to the city
crosses the Oconee bridge. When the river
gets out of its banks, the flat bottom be
tween the bridge and the city is flooded by-
water, often six or eight feet in depth, and
all intercourse with the city, except by
batteaux, is suspended, at a time, tod; when
the demand for wood is most urgent. Now,
would it not be well to throw up an em
bankment across the bottom and thus rem
edy the evil? The portiou of tho flat over
flown nearest the city, is the only place
where there is a strong current, aud this
not of much breadth. Hero a bridge or
trestle might be constructed to give exit
to the flood. By such an arrangement,
which would not be very costly, communi
cation with the city -across the Oconee,
would never be interrupted. Wo make
these suggestions in the interest of both
town and country, and ask tho guardians
of the public welfare to consider them
thoughtfully.
In accordance with law, the County
Board of Education of Baldwin County,
did, 04 the 20th day of July, 1880, adopt a
set iesof text-books to be used in the schools
of Baldwin county. The resolution adopt
ing the books contains the following clause:
“The law demands absolute uniformity
of books in each county, and now that this
uniformity can be secured in Baldwin coun
ty WITHOUT COST, the Board has re
solved to Require It, and to insist on the
displacement of all other books.”
In view of the fact that there has been
great and just complaint on the part of
patrons of schools on account frequent and
often unnecessary change of text books,
we think it our duty, as the guardians of
the educational interests of the people of
the county, to insist upon a uniformity of
text-books, and especially so, since this
much desired uniformity can be secured
without cost to patrons or teachers.
We have made arrangements with the
Publishing House of Ivison, Blakeman,
Taylor & Co., to furnish for five years,
tho following books at stipulated prices,
(elsewhere published lu this paper,) to-wit:
New Graded Readers, Swinton’s Word
Primer, (small speller,) Swinton’s Word
Book of Spelling, Swinton’s Word Analy
sis, Webster’s Dictionaries, Swinton’s Ge
ographies, and Swinton’s U. S. Histories.
In order to save cost to patrons, the pub
lishers have very liberally agreed to furn
ish these books in even exchange for old
books of similar grade, in actual use in tho
schools, book for book. Of course it is not
just to ask this even exchange longer than
is necessary to make the exchange, which
can be done for a limited time by bringing
the old books, to either Mr. E. A. Bayne’s or
Join: M. Clark’s drug stores, where the
adopted books will be furnished. We pro
pose to Insist upon thi j uniformity in text
books, because the law requires us to do
so. We ask, therefore, the cordial co-oper-
atiou of teachers and patrons and all Dis
trict School Trustees. Let uniformity be
once secured and wo pledge ourselves to its
permanency.

THE MACON AND AUGUSTA RAILROAD.
Nearly all the railroads iu the State, and
indeed elsewhere, have suffered severely
by the terrible weather of the winter now
approaching an end. New roads, particu
larly, have suffered most. The Macon A
Augusta road was built in a hurry, and
pushed through without a due regard to
its future. It was “nobody’s child” for a
long time, and it was a puzzling problem
for years to And out just who its owners
were, and where the responsibility of the
management lay. But, now, it is tho prop
erty of the Georgia Road, and that corpo
ration was never known to neglect its in
terests. Many portions of the Macon A
Augusta road are iu a bad condition. New
cross ties are badly needed in some of tho
sections, and other improvements are call
ed for. Wo want to see the M. A A. R. It.
put in splendid order. Our city depends
largely on It for tho success of its busi
ness. Wo want to see it prosper, but we

To the lion. Mayor and Aldermen:
Gents I make this application to your
Hon. Body to leaso for three years, eight
acres of land more or less, of land lying
on Fishing creek, near and adjoining the
land leased by Mr. Temples, and the lot
formerly owned by Mrs. Craft. In case
you agree to lease it to me, I wish to pay

| The following petition was read:
I To tin Hon. Mayor and Aldermen of the city
right direction. Why not give it to us?
The editor of tho Oglethorpe Echo says
ho did not lose as much as twenty-live
dollars last year by bad debts. The editor
of the Gainesville Southron wrote to him
to know how ho managed. Ho replies
through his paper, that he adopted the
cash-in-advance system—gave two weeks’
notice and then struck off every man, rich
and poor, friend and foe, high and low,
who failed to pay in advance. This crea
ted dissatisfaction and complaint at lirst,
and some of his patrons swore they would
never take his papei again; but they drop
ped in, one after another, and paid in ad
vance. At the end of a year his subscrip
tion list had nearly doubled what it was
when be did a credit business. Since then
he has adhered strictly to tho cash system
—giving notice of tho expiration of sub
scriptions, rendering accounts for adver
tising promptly, when a short time was
given to responsible parties. This is the
secret of tho Echo’s success. The editor
says the people of Oglethorpe aro proud
of their paper and stand up square to it.
Our College is on a lively boom. Ten new
students were catalogued last Tuesday.
When the weather gets fairly settled, we
expect a large addition to tho number of
students now in attendance. It is a splen
did institution, and offers rare opportuni
ties for parents to give their children a
thorough oducation at a mere nominal ex
penso.
Our city and college offer superior In
ducements to ambitious poor young men
who are endeavoring to educate them
selves. Tuition Is free, entrance foe small
and living cheap. We advise young men
throughout tho State, who arc thus strug
gling, to write to Dr. Dudley, and make ar
rangements for continuing their education
at Georgia’s old capital.

THE LOCAL PAPER.
Its Necessity to the People.
Tho columns of a paper aro the publish
er’s stock in trade, and tho parties who
ask to use them tor their special benefit
must expect to pay for the same. Every
public-spirited citizen of a pluce should
have a pride in seeing his town and sur
roundings improve; every new house, eve
ry new road, every new manufacturing es
tablishment erected, every new business
opened, enhances tin- value of property in
our mid9t. Every reflecting mind knows
this to be true, and it should not be forgot
ten that the local newspaper adds much to
tho general wealth and prosperity of the
place, as well as increases the reputation of
the town abroad. It benefits ail who have
business in the place; enhances the value
of property, besides being a desirable pub
lic convenience, even if not conducted in the
interest of the ruling political power. It
Increases trade, it cautions against imposi
tion, it saves you from loss, it warns you
of danger, it points out different advan
tages, and increases your profits. The lo
cal press is the power that moves the peo
ple; therefore support it by subscribing for
it and paying for it.
