•‘Which of the Two.”
Ouer neighbor of the Franklin
News has a double-leaded editori
al this week, with the caption,
“Which of the Two.” The altern
ative he discusses is a choice of
railroads between Chattanooga
and Newnan. He seems to have
made up his mind that the Newnan
project must not be abandoned.
Well, the citizens of Franklin
ought to k: ow what is to their
own interest and, if they prefer the
branch road from Newnan to a
trunk line to Chattanooga, which
would connect them with all points
North and West, the outside world
will not interpose any objection.
We have pretty strong assurance
that the projectors of the
through line arc of the opinion
that two roads to Franklin would
not pa), and there is a beautiful
and productive region west of that
place that needs development. —La-
Grange Reporter.
The Western Baptist Association,
Which convenes next Saturday,
at Antioch, ten miles west of La-
Grange, is one of the largest
religious organizations of the
kindin the State. About forty
churches, containing nearly four
thousand members, are represented
in its delibertions. It has no ec
clesiastical power, but is simply
an advisory body, in matters affect
ing the order of the churches. It
is concerned mainly with the mis
sionary and educational interests
of the denomination and with
evangelical work within its own
bounds. The area covered by it is
very large, embracing all of Troup
and Coweta, and large portions of
Harris, Meriwether, Heard, and
Campbell counties. We might
say that the whole country tribu
tary to the Atlanta & West Point
railroad, from Wcst Point to PaK
motto, is included within it. Upon
assembling, the first thing done is
hearing the introductory sermon at
11 o’clock a. m. Rev. R. 11. Har
ris is the appointee for this year.
Aftei dinner, the delegates ressem
ble and, after brief religious exer
cises, letters from the various
churches are read by persons de
signated to that duty by the Mod
erator. These contain the names
of delegates, statistics of member
ship, amount of contributions sent
up, etc. Sometimes a query is
proposed, which is appropriately
referred, or some pertinent sugges
tion is made. Then the election of
Moderator and Clerk takes place.
By an amendment to the constitu
tions, adopted a few years since, no
one can be elected Moderator twice
in successive years. In other
words, this body believes in a sys
tem of rotation in office. Usually,
a minister is chosen. The organ
ization perfected, the house is icady
for business. But nothing beyond
organizing is usually done on Sat
urdays. On Sunday, the mission
ary sermon is preached. Rev. J.
A. Munday will perforin that duty
this year. Munday is devoted to
the real business of the association,
which is transacted with much
dispatch, and it is rare that
an adjournment is not
reached in the afternoon, leaving
a good slice of daylight in which
the delegates may travel homeward.
The sessions arc largely attended,
and Sunday is the day
of days, as a number
of distinguished preachers,
whom the people arc eager to hear,
are generally in attendance. We
trust that the coming session will
result in great good.—LaGrange

FROM THE EAST.
Providence, R. I. Sept. 16 ’BS.
Editor Times:—The hot season
is about over and the country visi
tors from the city arc returning to
their parts. Factories and machine
shops are beginning to put in fnll
time, and the politicians are being
engaged planning and making sug
gestions as to the coming Congress,
which will be watched with unusus
al and undying interest. A move
ment is her.e on foot to bolster up
and keep the high protective on
the statute books.
It is understood here and at
ashington that Morrison, Hewett
and others are preparing a bill for
the coming session to act upon,
which is based upon old Jeffersoni
an principles, and will come nearer
to Justice between the classes.—
Upon luxuries the rate will be
maintained and in many instances
increased, while upon the necessities
it will be taken off or materially
decreased.
The whiskey men have given
up all hope of further buying time
on bonded goods and will prepare
I think to pay their bills. This
was one of the greatest outrages
ever perpetrated upon the rights of
any government. The next out
break I expect to hear will be in
the coal mines of Pennsylvania
among the Bulgarian and Hunga
rian miners against American la
bor. It is reported that the “Mol
lie Mcguircs” are again being oi
ganized, but the report is not yet
confirmed. Should an uprising
take place I trust that there will
not be one left to report hence
what became of the tribes. They
are a low bred, vulgar, ccurse, ig
norant lot, not to be put into
competition with American labor.
The Chinese are nice people com
pared with them. I notice that
at last that honored citizen, and
patriot, Jefferson Davis has con
descended to notice the vile publi
cations going the rounds of the
vile,'prejudiced, and I will say igno
rant press of the country, that he
was arrested in woman’s attire. —
There are many thousands in the
North that believe he was so arres
ted until now. There is quite a
large number of people in this part
of,what has been termed the fa
vored sanctified section of the East,
that arc etill voting George Wash-,
ington and are expecting the En
glish down the mountain sides
daily.
There is a great question coming
before Congress at the next session
which will be of considerable inter
est to the financial world. The
money question, it is found out must
be changed at the expense of the
tax payer. They talk -about silver
coinage, “dollar of our daddies,”
and “rag baby” as if they were
fully informed upon the subject. —
I imagine that the great trouble
with the countries and people is,
that they do not have money
enough, I mean sound money. I
believe that money is sound so long
as the price of paper or the price
of silver, or gold or leather or nny
i thing else with the promise of the
I government has a good credit. —
i The markets of supply and demand
will regulate the amount in circu
lation and the rate of percentage
paid for the uses. Whether it cost
more to keep a printer standing
ready to print paper money or to
pay a few freight bills has not
been considered by many croakers
against the silver dollar. I believe
that the government could afford
to resume the payment of our debts
in silver and gold or they could
either keep in the vaults silver and
gold enough to represent paper
money for floating currency. I
think it true that a solid, cstato
lished and permanent basis should
be arrived at and never deserted.
The worst thing that ever bcfel the
United States is the National bank
system. I believe in a “United
States of America” dollar, good
for one hundred cents in all claims
and made receivable for all debts,
whether it be silver, gold or paper.
Money only represents the value
of necessities of trade in demand,
and consumption of daily life.—
Should any country sec fit to dis
count uncle Sam’s money, it would
not be a difficult matter to discount
theirs, so regulating the value of
the currency with the bulk of exs
ports and imports. Labor would
rather receive high wages and pay
high prices for articles of consump
tion, than rhe reverse. I do not be-
believe in “subcontracting” the
financial system of this country to
a iot of individuals not paying
taxes nor giving any value for
what they receive, thereby taking
the very life blood of the country
without any remuneration. I am
confident that the next eight years
which will be democratic adminis
tration will see the public debt paid-
A public debt is not a public bles
sing, but a curse.
Well,General Grant is dead, and
it is conceded for the sake of char
ity and peace that he is in peace,
though had he died as he is said to
have uh d and have been a poor
somebody and unknown to
the world, the future for
him would be predicted as
a hot one. “Freddie” has received
a bit of advertising by the death
and a few soft headed people will
trove a pension be voted to each of
the family. I believe that a monu
ment to a man like Grant would
be an insult to real manhood, patri
otism, and character.
To say that U. S. Grant was a
man of brain, character or force is
exposing ignorance for which
there is no excuse. New York on
ly wishes the carcass buried there
for an advertisement,in other words
an attraction to the monkey show,
which is near at hand. It is said,
“say nothing about the dead if you
can not say something good.”—
This may do for the over religious,
fanatic portion of our race, but for
my part I think it all wrong.—
Calmly sit by and not object to a
wrong? It is a noticeable fact that
the cry has been to the South, “oh,
now let us shake hands ahd forget
the past,” or the leading papers of
the Republican party will continus
ally be putting foith something
like this: “We believe the day is
fast coming when the South will
become flourishing, prosperous and
the people will realize the error
of the late unpleasantness (twenty
five years ago) and will adopt pro
gressive ideas, education and enter
prise, which will unite the best el
ements of the two sections finally
and forever.” And at the same
time the people of the party here
have always a sneer and a vigorous
kick against everything from the
South. Tiiey may not come out
and say so, but a southerner need
not be thrown through a stone fence
to “tumble,” and arc in fact not
snclLbig fools us we are supposed
to be. lam thinking that the day
wil! come some time when the
press of this scctien will be more
intelligent and able to write under
standingly upon sectional interest;
but it never will come, so long as
the party of the “Grand Army of
the Republic” exists, which learns
the boy of this generation, “Hang
Jeff Davis on a sour apple tree,”
•and so we will proceed to sing,
“There hangs Jim Blaine on the
edge of despair.”

A Remarkable Escape.
Mrs. Mary A. Dailey, of Tunk
hannock, Ba., was afflicted for six
years with Asthma and Bronchitis,
during which time the best physi
cians could give no relief. Her life
was despaired of, until in last Octo
ber she procured a bottle of Dr.
King’s New Discovery, when im
mediate relief was felt, and by con
tinning its use for a short time she
was completely cured, gaining in
flesh 50 lbs. in a few months.

not return for some weeks yet.

One Bottle Instead, of a Dozen-
“And it took only one bottle to
do it,” said a gentleman, speaking
of Barker’s Hair Balsam. I had a
run of fever, and when I got well
of that my hair began to fall out
so fast as to alaim me. I really
didn’t know what to do,until one day
a friend said, ‘Try Barker’s Hair
Balsam.” That was some months
ago. What surprised me was the
fact that one bottle was enough.
I expected to use up a dozen.”

GEORGIA STATE FAIR.
The Outlook for the Comin*; Fair to
te Held atMapon.
On Monday, October 26th, the
Georgia state lair opens in Macon
and will continue for one week.
A letter received from that city
states that the outlook ia most en
couraging, and there remains no
doubt but that the fair will be a
grand success in every particular.
All the railroads have given great
ly reduced rates, and the attend
a ice will be large. The fair will be
held at the Central city paik.near
the river. It is within an easy
and pleasant walk of five minutes
from cither of the main hotels. zY
spcical line of hacks and street cars
will run to the grounds. There
are nine thousand dollars in cash
premiums. Premium lists will be
sent by mail upon applicaticn to
the secretary at Macon, who will
furnish all information desired
A special feature of the coming
fair will be the Jersey cattle sales.
The experiment was first started
at the fair, and proved perfectly
satisfactory to the builders. There
is $1,200 more money for field
than ever before offerd. Cash pei
miums a v e offered for horses, mules
and Jacks, cattle, sheep and swine,
poultry and bees field crops, horti
culture, orchard, etc., home indus
try, ortamental needle work, fine
arts, tools and implements, manu
factures, machinery, merchants’
displays, races, etc. There will be
a series of games of baseball on the
grounds by two or more of the best
clubs in America; the first Georgia
state fair shotgun wing-shooting
* • o
tournament, under the auspices of
the National gun association. Some
handsome prizes are offered.
Articles sent by freight or ex
press must be prepaid, addressed
“Secretary of the Georgia State
Fair. Macon, Georgia,” at any time
after the Ist of October. Articles
should be on the grounds on or be
fore Monday, October 29. If help
is needed with heavy articles, or
with stock, the superintendent will
provide it on application, at exhibi
tor’s expense. As no charges are
made for exhibiion, exhibitors must
furnish their own appliances,such as
show cases,extra countering,etc. Ex
hibitors will file such certificates,
etc., as arc required in
the premium list, with the secre
tary, and they are advised to attach
a card, with all particulars of age
size, weight, etc., written in a
plain and legible hand, to the ar
ticles exhibited, for the informa
tion of visitors. The exhibition of
articles not enumerarted in the pre
mium list is invited, and they will
be assigned to proper departments,
displayed to visitors, and examined
and reported upon by the judges.
Arrangements are made with the
various railroad companies for the
transportation of articles both
ways for one fare. To insure
their free return the certificate of
the secretary should be obtained.
This arrangement does not include
the express company.
The gentlemen at the head of
the enterprise arc using every
effort, and now let the people of
Georgia make it the grand success
it so richly deserves.
Easy to to See Through.
How can a watch—no matter how
costly—-be expected to go when
the mainspring won’t operate?
How can anyone be well when his
stomach, liver or kidneys are out
of order? of course you say, “lie
cannot.” Yet thousands of people
drag along miserably in that con
dition; not sick abed, but not able
to work with comfort and energy.
How foolish, when a bottle or two
of Parker’s Touic would set them
all right. Try it, and get back
your health and spirits.
