After a peaceful nod almost onintenop
tei? slumber of four decades, she shakes off
-her proverbial lethargy and asserts her
future progress.
Our town is just about to start mi a us*
highway to internal improvements. A
desire to see the town prosper seems to
have caught some of our beat citizens, and
the result is forcibly obvious. Listen at
the Cocribb scoot while he relates some
observations in hi* rounds of recent ram
bles. l)r. Watkins has just completed
about tbe handsomest residence iu town,
anti Mr. Thomas Hipp is building aud re
pairing the corner lot of tlie Nelson prop
erty, Dr. Taukersley and his brother
Deputy Marshal Taukersley are preparing
to build an elegaut and convenient resi
dence on the Killian property, they recent
ly bought, facing Main street. Mr. Wes
ton C. Allen is noaring completion one of

will soon stock it with a full line of goods.
Rev. E. B. Shope has already delivered

Mr. Jesse Jarrett, one ot Gilmer’s most
energetic farmers, has almost finished _ his
business bouse at the depot.
This list of actual investment aud build
ing is supplemented by a large number of
other establishments. Dr. I'ankersley in
tense to build him anew office, aud Colo
nel Pickens will have a brick office with
the title “Eternally at Law” hoisted up in
front. The Drs. Bearden will also build
anew drug store, and Major Weston
Welch speaks also of building a nice resi
dence for himself ou his lot on the public
square." Mr. Dave Jarrett is just waiting
to build a uew livery 6table so soon as a
suitable location can be procured. Anew
Southern Methodist Church is in waitiug
for a lot, aud so sooa as some way opens
up that denomination will move to con
summate that end.
Altogether the prospects for our town’s
improvement all round is indeed flattering,
and wo wait with iriipatience to record
other improvements equally as important
as the above.
Fellsw-eitizens, work for your town.
No oue else will. If it ever builds up, you
are the men who must do it, or induce
others to do it. Let us pull together for
Elliiay; for if we don’t we are “gone by
the board-”
A CARD;
The undersigned will begin the publi
cation of a weekly newspaper at Blue
Riuge, Ga., commencing Wednesday,
March 7th 1888, to be known as Thb
Bi.ck Ridqe Post. I ask my former
patrons to give the Post their support, and
I assure them I will give Blue Ridge and
Fannin county a paper that will merit
their patronage.
Respectfully,
W. G. MoNbllbt.
A Good Move.
One of the most sensible and beneficial
steps taken by town council was the piace
ing of rocks on the public square.
It would seem from this that our city
fathers had an eye to public comfort, and
convenience. It’s a move in the right di'
rectian, and is, we hope, the entering
wedge to other equally impoitant improve
ments.
What we want to say in connection with
this start, is the additional repair of side
walks in front of business bouses and
dveliings. Mr. M. V. Teem, one of the
most public spirited men of Ellijay, has
lined the sidewalk with sand in front of
tlie Central Hotel, which is one of the best
improvement on tins street mud we haye
seen. If every business firm in Ellijay
would gravel or pave the walk in front of
bis establishment, the town would not on
ly look 100 per cent, better, but his prop
erty would be enhanced trehble the cost f
the work, independent of the convenience
to himself and his customers. It seems to
us that this method of attracting custom
would prove a paying one, and such an
investment would be for the good of the
business.
Let us all turn over anew leaf this year.
I.et us take a start for the good of our
town. Here Ellijay has been a little cue'
horse town for fi r ty years, and it is just
about as large now as it ever was. This
is a reproach to tbe town. Now, let every
property bolder in town do something for
his home place. Fix up his property, re
pair his sidewalks and plant out shadetrees.
Every improvement of that sort helps the
looks of a town more than people general
ly imagine, and visitors especially are al
ways impressed with the geueral appear
ance of a place and the interest its citizens
take in its welfare.
Our sister towns are bidding for persons
seeking homes. Blue Hidge, .Mineral
Bluff, and Murphy, N. 0., are doing all
they can for themselves, aud if Ellijay sits
down in indifference aud unconcern as she
probably has done in tbe past, she must
look on the strides of neighboring towns
and witness her own backset. Let ui not
follow up our old ruts that lead to no eud
of Improvement, but every man In town
is the keeper, the custodian, of his city's
fair name ane piogrss Your newtpapet I
can’t do It by Itself. It must have co-op- j
eratlou from our citlseus.
Every body should move now for Kill-!
i jay's progress, and drop any little pilty
j prejudice* they may cherish. Let the
croaker* awl gruuitilers ha cried down, aud
Killjoy's luterail In reived.
THEY STAND UNITED.
The Citii mn of Bine Ridre anc
Morgan ton join Honda in Ea
tabliahing a Newspaper
for Fannin County-
Persuanl to previous arrangement the
citizen* of Morgaatou aud Blue Ridge met
at Blue Ridge Mouday to perfect plans for
the establishing of anew paper for Fan
nin county.
Tin meeting was called to order by
Judge J. E. Alaobrook who announced the
object of the meeting, then CapL J. M.
Slate was elected chairman aud TANARUS, A,
Brown, Secretary.
Both Morganton and Blue Ridge pretea
ted their claims for the uew Journal. Mor
ganton being represented by Dr. T. T.
Fain, Judge*J. E. Alaobrook, Thomas
Trammell. Dr. J. M. Daves, J. R. Chas
tain and T. A. Brown. Blue Ridge was
represented by every prominent citizeu in
tbe place.
W. G. McNelley was called upon to ex
press his views ou the subject and be came
forward and stated that while he appreci
ated .Morgauton’s claims be -was under ob
ligations to Blue Ridge as bis proposition
was first made to Blue Ridge and he was
in honor bound to establish the paper at
Blue Ridge if the stock was subscrided by
her citizens to buy the press aud material.
The citizens of Blue Ridge then asked
leave to retire and consult and (.fter a few
moments returned and auneunced that all
the money had been subscribed. It was
then the sense of tbe meeting that Blue
Ridge should have the paper, and Morgnn
ton representatives acquiesced and pledged
their hearty co-operation aud support of
the new Journal.
The utmost good feeling prevailed and
the result is Morganton and Blue Ridge
are pulling together in a cause that is bound
to result in great good to both places and
Fannin county at large.
Messrs, John W. Gray and J. H. Wit
-7.el put their shoulders to the wheel and
turned the tide in-favor of Blue Ridge at
the right time.
The new paper will lie called The Blue
Ridge Post, and will make its appearance
early in the month of March.
Ajax.
Both Are Complimented.
The Atlanta Constitution speaks compli
mentary of the Courier and Canton Ad.
vance in the following manner:
“A few days ago the constitution had
occasion to mention the wonderful ad.
vauce made by the canton Advance.
Now we note the fact that the Ellijay
courier, iD the adjoinimr county of Gil.
mer, has not only reached the point
where every issue is full ot original news
matter, but that its publisher has pur
chased an office in which the paper will
never be harrassed by the landlord The
courier anil the Advanoe illustrate the
growing importance ot Cherokee Georgia,
and it is now announced that Fannin
county will also have a creditable repre
sentative in tho press. The example of
these counties In amply sustaining one
good paper each, is one to be commended.
Harloy Tabor
Has plenty of clover and grass seed at
at cost. He has thousa 1 ds of best acid
phosphate on the way, and will be here
next week. He has three of the very
finest stallions ever prought to North
Georgia, from which the farmers all say
they want to raise some first class brood
mares. He also has three fine jacks
and four thorough-bred jersey bulls, one
of which can be found at Cartecay from
this date. Look out for his posters next
week, they will have six pictures on
them, one of which you will say repre
sents the stock raiser of this county in
the past and another that will represent
the coming stockraiser of Gilmer county
For particulers call on Haielkt Tabor.
THE SEMINARY SCHOOL
Professor Allen and Miss Lizzie Me-
Mahan have a flourishing school at the
Seminary, and students come in weekly.
Only last week Miss Minnie, Beitie and
Willie Franklin and Tommie Westbrook
of Fairmount, and Johnie Westbrooks
of Dawson county, eater-.d school. Miss
Emma Long and Mr. Barnett Dillingham
and Willie Long entered this week.
The school is progressing without a
jar or ripple, and the merry shouts of
school children can be heard all over
town from Seminary Hill.
We have sonic thing to tell you abont
anew tobacco factory at this place iu
uext week paper. Ellijay is on the uprise.
Mrs. W. D. Allen, aud Misses Mary
Puckett and Fannie Franklin paid us a
brief but a pleasant call yesterday after
noon. Call again, ladies.
At the recent examination of applicants
for teachers licenses, about 63 entered
tbe room, but only about 15 decided to
try the examination. It was above tbe
standard heretofore, and ‘ P. B- P.” has
something sensible to say about it this
week.
It is absolutely astonishing to announce
that Ellijay has 12 bachelors over 24 years
old, and too this is leap year ! Why is it
thus! Shall it be said to the credit of
Gilmer that this season, frougut with such
special previleges to the ladies, shall pass
without due observation by them?

SpAßTAitanno, S. (J. April 2,1887
Gcnt'emen—For twenty years I have
had a sore on my left cheek. It had
gradually been growing worse. The
many physicians whom I ha t consulted
were unable to do me any good. Last
fall a year ago 1 began using S. 3.3. At
first it inflamed the sore, and it became
more yirulent than ever; so much so, in
deed, that my family iusi.-ted that I
should leave off the medicine. I persist
ed in using the 8. 3. S. At the end of
two months the sore was entirely healed
Thinking that the Aril was~ out of my
constitution, I left off the medicine; but
in November, ten mofilhs after, a very
slight breaking out appeared - . lat once
began aga’n on S. 3.8., and now that
is also disappearing. every faith
in 83- 8. It has donTOie more good
than all the doctors and other medicines
I ever took. Yours truly,
