vto (la.. sfiTond clans matter.
KELP THE BALL MOVING.
Satisfied that great good to our
county and people can be brought
about by a liberal response thereto,
we can but second Bet’s appeal pub
lished in our last issue, and as far as
we may be able, advocate the cause
in behalf of which that appeal was
made. From concert of action upon
the part of any people engaged
in a laudable enterprise will inevi
tably grow good results, provided
their action have proper direction.
This is what Bet, in behalf of the
club for which he is spokesman, ear
nestly solicits. To make of the en
terprise proposed a success, will ad
mit of no delay. Simply to obtain
a prize at the State fair for the best
county club display next October,
is not the only, nor the ultimate de
sign of the movers in this matter.
Nor is it to give any one or more
leaders “spread eagle fame. The
chief design of the movememt is to
achieve real benefits and great good
to every citizen of Monroe, he he far
mer, merchant, doctor, lawyer,teach
er, mechanic, or gentleman of leasure.
The ultimate result hoped for is a
largo addition of industrious, work
ing people to our sparse population,a
multiplying of pleasant homes, the
development of every enterprise for
which our section is suited, to in
crease the productive capacity of our
lands, to diminish the number of
money borrowers, to lessen the num
ber of mortgages which are the
chains that are to-day around the
necks of many farmers and choking
them to death, and to make us a
more independent people. This is
the principal object of the farmers’
club movement, and is there a man,
woman, or child capable of thought,
in Monroe county who does not fa
vor, and who is not willing to aid
any effort that tends to bring about
such results? Is there one among
our true and noble women who are
ever well Wishers to every good en
terprise and strong helpers to their
husbands and fathers, who will not
cheerfully aid as far as she can, in
this movement? Wo would not
work for the interest of, nor advo
cate the claims of any one section of
Monroe county above another, but
would labor for the good of all, and
would unite them if possible as sister
sections into an harmonious whole
in their efforts and endeavors to en
hance the general interest. And
Bolingbroke having spoken out, and
set the ball in motion, will all the
other districts in the county respond
to her, and keep it moving? W T e
would stress the fact that, the plant
ing season being at hand, now is the
timo to begin the labors for making
the county club display at the fair in
October. Let every farmer plant
with a view to contributing some
thing to the display.
The total actual appropriations by
the late congress as computed by
the clerks of committees, amounts
to 8247,387,144, distributed as fol
lows :
Agricultural, 81,020,730; army,
823,724.718 ; diplomatic and Consu

that the president has about decided

sioners, and claims these to be W. R.
Morrison of Illinois. Gen. Bragg, of
Alabama, aud Juge Thomas M. Coo

Mr. Editor: —It is with pleasure
we peruse your paper, the “Monroe
Advertiser,” and think the state af
ford- but few, if any, weeklies supe
perior to it, not only in size but also
in the quantity and quality of reading
matter; and certainly it is deserving
of a very extensive circulation which
no doubt it enjoys. Your editorials
are always good, and often impres
sive; especially so your issue of week
before last, which was replete with
wise and suggestive thoughts on va
rious subjects tiiat pertains both to
our city and the agricultural interest
of Monroe county. Your able and
gifted correspondent over the signa
ture of “Bet,” I presume is one of our
enterprising and progressive plan
ters. Judging from the practical and
wise suggestions with which his very
interesting communications abound;
and on his line of thought will
gladly join him in some future issue
of your paper. But the first thing
which presents itself to our mind
and consideration now is the devel
opment, growth and prosperity of our
city. It is certainly gratifying to her
citizens, and of Monroe, to know,
that she lias taken a start upward
and onward, in material wealth; and
the push and vim which characterize
her business men is a sufficient guar
antee of the solidity of her advance
ment; her growth will not be of the
mushroon order, but gradual, steady,
and sure. There are but three things
needing now to start her on a solid
boom: First a boarding department
for tlie female college, second, a
hotel of modern plan near the public
square, and third, an enterprise in
the way of manufacturing; with these
we will see and feel the gentle touch
of rapid progress. We now have ad
vantages but feiv interior towns pos
sess, which are great conveniences to
the city and to the planters, that is
our banking facilities. We have two
banks now in full blast, one owned
by Col. W. 11. Hoad & Cos., the other
by W. T. Maynard & Cos., both firms
composed of enterprising men of
wealth. Besides, you say the third
is in prospect with half a million of
money! Such tidings Mr. Editor are
certainly very exhilorating, and no
doubt will be received joyfully all
over the county, the thought of so
much money, and sufficient I should
think to supply every demand. May
he Mr. Editor, there will be a chance
for “Bet” to come in on the home
stretch, with his guilty-edge collater
als. Now Mr. Editor to the point.
Any one who has been absent from
our city for a year, on their return
would at once be attracted by tlie
vaßt improvements of the town, espe
cially on Railroad Avenue—the beau
tiful and cozy cottages that have
been recently build adds quite an at
tractive appearance to that portion of
tnecity; besides others are in con
templation and will be built this
spring and summer. Our efficient,
and enterprising mayor, [Major J. It.
Banks, has nearly completed the
planting out of shade trees on all the
different streets, and says as soon as
court adjourns he will have the
streets and sidewalks put in trim.
The Major is full of enterprise and
vim; we like to see it? Ancient
Rome’s proudest boasts in the very
acme of her glory, were her public
roads which led into and through
the city, an index of a refined civili
zation.
Forsyth has every advantage that
could be desired; situated in middle
Georgia, on the first spur of the Pied
mont range of mountains, and imme
diately on railroad between Macon
and Atlanta, in a few hours ride of
either city, elevated and far from any
large streams of water, hence free
from malaria; and a climate equal to
that of southern Italy—pure, cool,
free stone water and one of the
healthiest towns in Georgia, her peo
ple intelligent, refined, and in any
direction, either by public road or
railroad, away in the distance, ere
you reach the little queen city of the
hills, the first thing which greets the
eye is her church spires and her col
lege steeples towering heavenward;
and as the old iron ribbed horse, with
lungs of fire and breast of steel, (the
great civilizer of the age,) comes yel
ling, rumbling and thundering by,
and rolls up to our station, the pas
sengers can feast their vision—look
on in admiration upon our institu
tions of learning. On either side
they stand. Hilliard Institute on the
one side, an attractive and commo
dious building for the education of
boys and young men, under charge of
Prof. V. E. Orr, with a competent
corps of assistants, and quite a flour
ishing school. On the other side is
Monroe Female College. Ah! there
she stands —behold her! a perfect lit
tle queen, rising up gracefully and
grandly in all her maiden beauty,
amidst the pretty green lawns and
shady groves that encircle her.
This is the alma mater of some of
the liuest female intellects that adorn
our Georgia homes; —here the course
of instruction is thorough and com
plete If a young lady receives a di
ploma here, she earns it. This insti
tute is under care of Prof. R. T. As
bury, assisted by Dr. I. R. Branham,
two of the finest educators in Geor
gia, with an efficient corps of a>sis
tnnts in all the different departments.
Art and music a speciality, and fine
instructors in those departments.
Our institutions of learning here are
our pride, they are the geese that lay
the golden egg. We foster, and cher
ish them, and those at a distance
could not send their boys and girls to
a better place to educate them than
here. Every advantage that is ele
vating and refining, good society,
healthy, board cheap, and tuition
nominal in comparison with other
similar institutions. In conclusion,
permit me Mr. Editor to say that my
self and mine have come and cast our
lot in your midst, and feel that we
are part and parcel of you, and our
hearts overflow with gratitude to the
people of Forsyth for the courtesies
and kindnesss ever shown us. We
have never felt like strangers here,
but like a part of a united family. I
often think of it, and it seems to me,
that Forsyth is made up and compos
ed of one huge family,—all seem to
feel, think, and move alike, not a
ripple to disturb, evry one moves on
the even tenor of his way. Hence
how pleasant it is to live amongst
such people; and feei that I voice the
sentiment of all who have visited our
city, in paying her people this com
pliment. 1 have traveled over various
portions of the -state, and have never
yet failed to meet with that flattering
response, her healthy location, fine
schools, and refined society, her hos
pitable and kind people. What else
could any one wish for who has sons
and daughters to educate, or to move
here for the benefit of educational
purposes. Building lots can be bought
reasonable, and some few houses and
lots could be bought already iun
proved . We say to all, our little
city’s arms are wide open, and her
citizens ready to welcome any and
ali good citizens who are seeking
health resorts, refined society, and
good schools. And finally Mr. Editor
will say, as far as strength and my
humble means will permit, will help
to hold up the burdens, and to push
forward the driving wheel of progress
of our little queen city of the hills.
Respectfully,
“Nimrod.”
GENERAL PRESENTMENTS
Of the Grand Jury of Monroe Superior
Court for the February Term, 1887.
We, the Grand Jurors, serving for
tlie present term, beg leave to submit
the following as our
Cl ENERAL PRESENTMENTS:
In compliance with the charge of
his Honor, Judge Boynton, we have
by committees, examined the books
of the following county officers,
to-Vvit: County Commissioners, Or
dinary, Clerk Superior Court, Sheriff
and Tax Receiver, and find them
correctly kept. Owing to the
fact that there is a large amount
on his hooks still uncollected, and the
further reason that the Tax-Collector
has not settled with the County Com
missioners, we did not examine his
books, but earnestly request that the
Grand Jury, at the next August
term, give them a thorough exami
nation. We also recommend that
the Clerk of Superior Court require
every person going to his office for pa
pers to give a receipt for same before
taking them out, and that he keep a
book l’or Jhejpurpose of keeping a rec
ord of same.
The dockets of the Justices of the
Peace, and Notary Public, and Ex-

meet in July next, and use every
honorable means in their power to

It will be seen from the above ac
count that there is a larger balance
of uncollected taxes for 1886 than the
year previous. From the deficiency
of properiy bonded Bailiffs in the
county we are unable to press the
Tax-Collector to a prompt settlement
of taxes. Fie, on account of this de
ficiency, being unable to have the
tax fi-fas levied promptly. Hence to
remedy this defect we suggest the
propriety of calling attention of our
Representatives to this matter and
recommending that our Tax-Collector
be made, bv statute, his own levying
officer.
By referring to disbursement ac
count it will be seen the amount paid
to scrip account $6,972.39 added to
balance cash on hand $1,112.31 aid
deducted from aggregate disburse
ments leaves $10,353.02 as the expen
ses for running the county the past
year, less Tax-Collectors and Receiv
ers commissions.
Amount to be provided for present
year:

To pay this amount will require an
assessment of $4.65 on the thousand on
the taxable property of the county as
returned for past year.
Amount of taxable property as re
turned past year, less errors, $2,350,000
to be apportioned as follows:

We would respectfully call the at
tention of your honorable body to the
fact that much complaint is made by
the Justices of the Peace in the va
rious militia Districts of the county
because of a want of buildings where
in to hold their courts and attend to
the duties of their office. To meet
this need we respectfully ask your
consideration of the propriety of
erecting a small building for this
purpose at the court ground in each
District. Should this meet your ap
proval, then we would solicit your
recommendation of the specific di
mensions and kind of building to he
erected and appropriations sufficient
to cover the cost of same.
During the sessions of the last
congress there were introduced in
the home 11,253 bills and 263 joint
resolutions; in the senate 3,357 bills
and 11S joint resolutions ; the total
number of laws enacted approxima
ted 1430. There were 132 bills vetoed
by the President, being twenty one
more instances of the exercise of the
veto power, than had occured from
the foundat ion of the government to
the begining of this congress.
