We giret our readers with do un
limiulpl iiupsonso about Iho “deuth
of the old Hint llio birth of the new
year,” but wo come forth this Juiiiia
ry morning strengthened iu tbo hope
that opr beloved 8 >ut bland is near
ing the blissful <l:ty when her resour
ces will be developed and her pros
perity assured. The water courses
of fc'ewiou county aie sufficient t*
drive enough machinery to luuuufac
ture the entire oottnu crop of Geor
gia. Let us keep an eye on these
rivers, and extend invitations to cap
italists abroad to come and see foi
themselves what can he done right
hero at our very doors iu the way of
mauufactui ing cotton and other
goods. Our forests are full of fine
timber, old mother earth is rich in
gold, granite, paint, etc. This is in
Newton county.
The Enterprise lias often pointed
to the many circumstances which in
dicate that the South is just entering
upon a period of prosperity much
greater than she has ever experien
ed iu the past. In the course of an
editorial upon this subject, the New
■York Star says :
“The South is the richest undevel
oped part of tliik continent. Its re
.sources have always been uuderesti
mated. The energies of ils people
have been too long misdirected to
ward agriculture almost exclusively.
Rich in coal and iron depos ts, its
mines are few, its furnaces scarce.—
Its forests are as rich in valuable
woods as its fields in various staples.
Yet manufactures there have never
flourished as iu the North and West,
solely because enterprise was direct
ed in another couise. Northern cap
jtalists prefer investment in manu
facturing rather than in agricultural
enterprises. The likelihood, there
fore, is .that the future development
of the Southern States will he large
ly in manufactures. That meaus a
large addition of skilled laborers to
her population. The laborers will
naturally come veiy largely from the
Northern States; aud there will fol
low, as a matter of course, a closer
affiliation of Southern and Northern
men than has ever existed before
A better knowledge of each other
,xvili follow this association. Pieju
dices that have existed for years to
divide them will disappear. A com
muuity of interests will tend toclos
er union, and sectionalism will cease
to distract and retard the South.—
The great fortunes to he made in the
next quarter qf a contury will be
found in the Sout'i. Her railway
system will be greatly augmented by
the industrial development already
foreshadowed.”
THE GEORGIA FARMER.
Farmers of Georgia, farmers of
Newton county ! awake, arouse your
selves this new year aiul see if (here
is not some way to bring prosperity
back to the hearth and home of the
tillers of the soil. The Enterprise
makes no suggestions, gives you no
gratuitous advice, hut it appeals to
you to exercise your judgment and
do all in your power to free your
selves from debt and dependence.—
The fanners, all over the world, are
carrying a heavy burden in the shape
of i,nortgages and obligations. This
state of affairs is demoralizing to ev
ery enterprise, every calling and ev
ery profession. The only remedy
we see is tjto raise the necessary sup
plies at home, make the farm self-sus
tainiug, divetsify crops and by all
means economize and try to get on a
jeash basis. This is hard to do, but
it must be done, or the worst has not
yet come. From the Augusta Chron
icle we see that the great West is as
.bad off as the sunny South.
The discussion over the condition
of the Georgia farmers reveals the
fact that they are not in a good con
dition, and that as a class they have
been growing poorer each year since
the war.
But investigation shows that the
farmer of the West is as bad oft' as
his Southern brother. One would
suppose that on the rich prairie
lauds, where tracts were settled and
obtained in patents from tbc govern
went, where sojj is fresh, markets
new and demand plentiful, farming
would be found at its best aud that
there at least the plauter would be
prosperous aud independent.
Reports show, for instance that
over one-fifth of the entire acreage
of Illinois is under mortgage for
loans. That is, twenty per cent of
the laud of Illinois has been paid for
and mortgaged afterwards by its
owner under pressing need of mon
ey. The amount of mortgage in
debtedness of Illinois, outside ol
railroad and city property, is 8124,
000,000. P.atte county alone Las
.sixty thousand acres under mortgage.
Neurly eight iniiliou acres are liable
fio be sold iu Illinois for debt.
Men who search for the cause of
the farmers’ misfortunes must go fur
fiber than Georgia. Aud they must
go deeper thau the tariff, for the
plautmg class iu England and other
European countries is as deep in the
mud as Uie Ameiicau farmer is in the
mire.
COLONEL LIVINGSTON.
Hon. L. E. Livingston, vice-presi
dent of the alliance, iu reply to ques
tions from the Atlanta Constitution
said : “I have heard much of the
complaints about the alliance fight
ing the merchants. ,1 do not think,
however, that many failures can he
clmrgod to that cause. The two lead
ing commission merchants in Cov
ington tell me that they have never
carried over so little debt as this
year. That the farmers have paid
| up better than limy have any year in
tun. They say that tha fanners have
economized iu buying because the
alliance teaches them net to buy a
dollar’s wm tli except absolute nec.ee
j savies unless they can pay cash for it.
I have no doubt many merchants
have failed because the patronage of
the fiu in'U's lias not been what they
expected. Formerly farmers bought
more than they could pay for ; now
they are buying only what they have
ihe cash in hand for. This decrease
in patronage wjll hurt the merchants,
and many of them may fail under it.
hut it will be better for uil iu the
long run. The big farmers in Geor
gia are not making any money, be
cause as a rule they do not stay on
their places. You notice the Tarver
estaU, in Twiggs county, was sold
at a debt of $27,000 long loan, and
the Lockett estate, in Dougherty,
was sold under a debt of SIB,OOO. —
The smaller fanneis are doing well.
Wherever a man stays pn his place
and tends liis farm he is making it a

At Wilkes superior court. Judge

in Ills charge to the grand jury, said :
‘ Disturbing public worship is a

a man wants to make a jackass of
himself ho can find plenty of room in
this country away from where people

The London Times said long ago
(May 31, 1857) of the license sys

been found wanting.” The M. E.
Church says: “We are unalterably
opposed to the enactment of laws
tliat propose by license, taxing or
otherwise, to regulate the drink traf
flc. We hold that the proper atti
tude of the Christian toward this
traffic is one of uncompromising op
position.” (M. E. Church Discip
line, 1888.)
