' Titov, Ala., July 20.—'We shall now be as good as our word and undertake to give the readers of I the Enquirer-Sun » few appropriate remarks ; about crops, politics and things generally in Pike • county. The more we mix and mingle with the i people here, the better we like them. They ap pear to a very fine advantage on first acqunint- ! ance, but ns we come to know them better there | is a marked improvement, which makes one feel at home. In fact, many of the citizens of Troy are native Georgians, and they know so many | people that we know a natural affinity springs 1 up. Your correspondent has just been engaged i in a long conversation with Dr. G. W. Andrews, | whom we found to be a most estimable gentle man, a fine business man and one of the leading citizens of the place. He moved from Georgia and the memory of his first love causes a fond ness for the people of his native state. We dropped in to see the doctor for a moment only but prolonged the stay to an hour. He is a regu lar reader of the Enquirer-Sun and keeps up with the times. He likes the paper, the princi ple it advocates, the high plane upon which it is run and does net hestitate to say that the En- quirer-Sun is one of the very best dailies in the country. ANOTHER NATIVE GEORGIAN is Mr. M. Connor, who is one of the largest mer chants here, and was several years ago a citizen of Columbus. If we are not mistaken he moved from Talbotton, Ga., to Columbus, and subse quently to Troy. His up-the-country friends will be glad to know that he is doing well here. He is engaged in merchandising and does a heavy business in advancing to the farmers. He in forms us that business, as a rule, is very fair, and he sees no reason why any should indulge in complaints about hard times and dull business. Mr. Connor is one of the oldest subscribers of the Enquirer-Sun and demonstrated bis affection for it by renewing his subscription yesterday for a year in advance. Another live firm here who KNOWS A GOOD THING when they see it is that of Messrs. Coleman & Corral, who can’t afford to do without the En quirer-Sun. Said Mr. Coleman to us when we dropped in yesterday, that he was taking several dailies, and felt like he ought to support Alaba ma enterprises, consequently he had thought of discontinuing the EnqArer-Sun, but when it came to the pinch, he handed us seven dollars which pays for a year in advance. This firm does a large business and are making a success of merchandising. Thu name of this firm is a household word in the homes of many farmers, and the integrity and honesty of this house has given them a fine trade. Among other ENTERPRISING A NO PROSPEROUS merchants are McLeod & Liter, who also do a large and prosperous merchantile business. Both these gentlemen were out when we called to pay our respects, but their storehouse gave every in dication of enterprise and thrift. They are live merchants and may be put down among the number of those who have done so much toward making Troy the leading city in this section of the state, and bringing it from a cross-roads trading place to a town that does three millions nf business annually. ONE OK THE MVKST MEN in the city is Dr. A. St. Clair Tennille, who is a merchant, manufacturer and planter. He has one of the largest drug stores in the city and de spite the fact that Troy and the community is re markably healthy, does a splendid business and is making money. He is a large stockholder and president of the Troy Fertilizer Company- an in stitution that makes 300 tons of guano—which finds a demand for all he can make. He is fore most in nil enterprises that go to build up his town, and believes that the only way to do tHU is to invest in enterprises which will bring more- people and, consequently, more consumers. It bus been our good fortune to spend a day in his home with his family, and if they are a specimen of Troy's home life, then indeed is this one of the happiest places in the world. THERE ARE MANY OTHERS, but we cannot particularize at this time, though we would not do Troy justice to omit mentioning the fact that Mr. L. M. Bushinsky, the head of a live aiul solid bank, keeps the machinery well oiled. If it were not for his bank and his accom modating disposion, many of the merchants ami other business men might spend sleepless nights where they now lie down to peaceful slumber and sweet dreams of the ducats. But we must now turn those remarks to other things. TAI.K ABOUT THE CR01*S and the prospects in Pike for a few minutes. It is often the case that newspaper men who are closely confined in rose scented sanctums grow tired of looking upon their luxurious surround ings and weary of treading upon Brussells, such as adorn the sanctum floor of the Enquuier-Sux editorial rooms. They long to betake themselves out upon the sward of God’s green earth; breathe the atmosphere as pure as heaven and roam around the verdant fields. To get out and be fr ee and footloose on such occasions makes them enthusiastic. They are then in tine trim for praising everything that looks inviting and for lauding to the skies all|vegetution in the way of farm products or gardeu truck. Your correspond ent has taken all these things into consid- sldc.ationl has weighed his enthusiastic nature with the general surroundings, and now says without fear ofcourtadiction, that THE BEST CROPS ARE NOW GROWING that have grown in Pike couutvfor the past six or eight years. We have not been in all parts of the county, but we have talked with those who have. Most of the crops of which we write we have seen and know of a truth that the pros pects here are most encouraging to the fanner, the merchant, the business man and to all the people, for all are dependent upou the success of agriculture. So far as the corn patches in and around the city are concerned, ami some of them embrace several acres, they are just as good as the land will make, for the people here tell us that it has not been better in ten years. In twenty feet of me is a corn patch of two acres and Dr. Tennille would not give a man thank you to insure him 120 bushels of corn from it. Upon his plantation a few miles from the city he nas much corn that will compare favorably with this brag patch. His cotton he tells us is the best he has had for years, aud the universal testimo ny is that the crops in that community are of the same character. In speaking of these crops we have not selected brag patches to MAKE A GOOD SHOWING, but there are some crops in the county that are almost wonderfril. For instance, Mr. Johnson and Mr. Knox, two farmers a few miles south of here, made aud ginned eighteen bales to the j mule last year. They both tell us that their crop of cotton is from fifteeu to twenty per cent, bet ter than it was last year, and that their corn is from twenty-five to fifty per cent, better. Let not the reader imagine that they plant all cotton in order to make so much per plow ; such is not the case. They are the men who bring hams aud breakfast bacon, the products of their farm, to town and sell it at this season of the year. Shelled corn would frighten their sleek and fat mules from the feed trough. But these are ex ceptional cases. The average will fall far below this. THE FINEST FARM LANDS in the county is in the southern, southeast and eastern part of the county, and more particularly out about Brundidge. Here the crops are mag nificent—the best that many of the people in that section have ever seen growing there. The man in the neighborhood of BrundUlge who has a poor crop would be ashamed to admit it, as it would be a reflection upon his capacity as a far mer. The Hpringhill neighborhood also has very fine crops and is a good farming pom in unity. At Henderson and Goshen Hill, in the southwest ern part of the county, the crops are reported all that could be desired and better than in THE NORTHERN SECTION around Orion or even in the neighborhood of China Grove and Linwood. On a par with these are the crops about Briar Hill, but the only rea son that these crops are not as good as those in the southern part is that the farming lands are not ns good. The crops have been well worked and heavily fertilized and the seasons, while wet weather interfered with work in a measure, have been sue has to suit the condition of things. The consequence is n poor crop is the exception and not the rule. In every part of the county the people are much encouraged and with no 1 misfortune will be in a good fix for future opera- j tions. One need hardly be told that the crops j are good, as the people are cheerful generally. They believe that they will be able to “pay up” this year and this causes a broad smile upon the faces of the merchants. ONE OF THE SECRETS of the large yield that is now promised this com munity and county is the fact that the lands have been well fertilized. They encourage home industry by patronizing the fertilizer company here, and the company turns out an article that will make the land produce. Then again the beauty of co-operation is exemplified in the fact that most of the representative men of the city, and several prominent farmers in connection with them, are stockholders in the guano factory and they all talk its merits. They constitute themselves ugents for its sale, and the effect of this influence is large sales and the result good crops. Some people may wish to know how we found out SO MUCH ABOUT THE CROPS without going all over the county and into the fields. It was this way: When we met a man on the street who looked like he might be a farmer, we would walk up, shake hands and speak to him, though we did not know his name from Adam’s house cat. The man would think that he had met an old acquaintance, but the gimblet would be applied industriously und almost before he was aware we would know where he lived and as much about the crops in his neighborhood as he knew himself. In Troy we met four differ ent farmers at different times and the report of each coincided with the other, in several in stances furnishing names, but none of these gentlemen to this day knew that they were talking for the Enquirer-Sun. At other times we would ride through the country in a buggy, and often tying tMe halted to a convenient fence or bush, would perambulftVe through the fields. If a notion came into min A we would go to a farm house and interview the owner on the -ub- ject of crops. Anyhow, the crops are good. POLITICS IN PIKE is the warmest thing that we have struck since we left Cofuuibus, the weather not excepted even though the thermometer has been dancing up in the nineties. The state election will be held Monday, but it is local politics that makes things lively. The county officers are to be selected on that day and the race is a free for all, or in common parlance, a scrub, no nominations having been made The county is entitled to two representatives in the general assembly and there ore six candidates. T. J. Carlisle, one of the piesent encumbents, is a candidate for re- election. The others are J. M. Carter, B. W. Starke, W. J. McBride, Frank Bennington and McLeod. It is thought that Mr. McLeod will be one of the two chosen, though it is a matter of guesswork. Pennington is making an issue by agitating the stock law, and it is thought that this will defeat him, though he will likely carry the vote in Troy. Some of the other officials will have EASY SAILING, as there is no opposition to them. Judge J. P. Hubbard will be elected judge of the circuit court as the nominee of the democratic party. It is rumored here to-night that a republican candi date is in the field and that the republicans are trying to keep it quiet and spring him out on Monday. The present clerk of the opurt, Ogle thorpe Worthy, will be re-elected without oppo sition. There are four candidates for county school superintendent, but we have no intima tion of who will probably win the prize. THE HOTTEST OF ALL is the race for probate judge, and the contest is still heating. There are nine candidates and every one of them is making an active canvass. There is public speaking at two different points in the county every day, and every candidate be lieves his chances to be the best. W. J. Hilliard is the present encumbent, and the fact of his be ing in, he hopes, will make it hard to get him out. Frank Baltzell is a stirring fellow, popular with the farmers, and being the editor of the En quirer, makes him well known. It is thought by some that the aian who gets it will have to beat Baltzell. L. H. Bowles is a Baptist, and hopes that element will stand by Him, while T. H. Jones swings around among the Methodist. Rev. Mr. Henderson is a Hardshell, and as there are many Primitive Baptists in the county this may be an influence to help him out. Lucius Reeves used to be clerk of the court, and this is his lever. W. C. Wood, Jas. P. Nall and A. C. Worthy are all candidates. Worthy ran in the last election and was three from head in a batch of twelve or fifteen candidates. He has no particular hobby, but stands a good showing to come in. The matter will be decided Monday, aud until then uo man can tell who wtll be the next probate judge of Pike. G. LOCAL LACONICS. —The delegates from Muscogee to the guberna torial convention returned yesterday evening. —Yesterday was another scorcher. If it con tinues much longe. the summer resorts will be crowded. If there was any wind at all. we would be constrained to say right here that “it’s an ill wind that blows nobody any good.” -The gun club will have its semi weekly shooting match at Star park this afternoon. -Rev. B. W. Bussey preached at the Baptist church in Girard last night to a large congrega tion. The interest in the meetings continue to increase. —Miss Leona Hackney is quite ill with typhoid fever at the residence of her uncle. Mr. T. A.

The Columbus Guards’ rifle team had its regu lar Weekly target practice on the south commons yesterday afternoon and some splendid shooting was done by the members. The shooting was at ranges of 100 and 200 yards. Captain Whiteside did the best shooting at the 100 yard range and Arthur Bussey at the 200 yard range, but the former made the best average record.

She was about forty-seven years of age aud was born in Lee county. Ala., but had re sided in this city a number of years. She was a sister of Mrs. T. M. Bryant, of this city, and Mrs. George Hughes, of Montgomery, who have the sympathy of many friends in their sad bereave ment. Mrs. Cofield was a consistent member of the Methodist church and a devout Chris tian. It may be truthfully said of her that a good woman has gone to reap the reward which awaits those '* ho are faithful into the end. The good that she did will live after her in its benign influence on those with whom she came in daily contact. The funeral will take from the residence this afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. BREAK(>'(■ BLACK BALLS. The New Shooting Club Has Its First Regular Practice. The new gun club had its first regular shoot ing match on the south commons, at the foot of Broad street, yesterday afternoon. The targets used were composition balls, and considering that the members wen* without practice, they did very well. Twenty shots each were fired, and following is the score: Jesse Beard 8 Tim Salisbury 3 Henry Hunter 5 Henry Burrus ” 14 Jep C. Turner 14 George A. Riddle 2 Messrs. Burrus and Turner tied for first place. The tie was shot off and Mr. Burrus brokeU7-and Mr. Turner 16 out of a possible 23. Mr. Burrus broke ten balls in succession.
