The Crop Prospect.
The reports coming from farmers rela¬
tive to the crop prospect in this county
are to some extent conflicting. This is
doubtless attributable to the partial
showers that have fallen. In some local¬
ities in the country line rains have fallen,
while in some others the rains have been
light and insufficient. Owing to this
difference in the rain fall some of our
farmers claim that it is impossible for
them to realize anything like a fair crop
of corn, while other farmers in other lo¬
calities report that the prospect for a
corn crop is good.
The reports concerning the cotton crop
generally throughout the county is more
uniform and the prospect for that crop
is claimed to be reasonably fair.

Water the Shade Trees.
Few things, if any, beautify and make
attractive the streets of a city more than
an ample supply of pretty shade trees.
Quite a number of our streets have shade
trees, set and growing, the planting of
which has been done by the employees
of the city council. Nice shade trees on
the sidewalks in front of the residences
in the city add to the attractiveness of
these homes. And right here allow us
to suggest that the growth of young shade
trees in front of the residences wolild be
facilitated during the dry spells in the
summer if the owners of the homes
would have them regularly watered. To
do this will require no great expenditure
of labor, and if each would see that such
watering was done in dry, hot weather it
would add to the vigor of the young
trees, and in some [instances prevent them
from dying from thirst. Suppose our
citizens try this experiment and see what
the result will be.
The 4th of July.
Last Wednesday was the anniversary
of the declaration of American indepen¬
dence, and in some places was observed
with considerabled demonstration. In
Forsyth the day was quiet. In the fore¬
noon our business houses were kept
open, but were all closed at noon, and
merchants and clerks ail entered upon
an evening’s rest. If there were any
fourth of July dinners in town or country
we never heard of them. In the after¬
noon the business portion of the city
bore quite a Sunday-like appearance, the
only thing occurring in the city limits to
disturb the monotony of things being a
game of base ball played by the colored
people. The teams consisted of a nine
from Jackson and a nine from this city.
The game closed with Forsyth’s nine
winner, when her pitcher was seized by
the team, seated in a chair, then placed
upon the head of her burly catcher and
borne through the streets to the music
of the colored brass band. The noisy
jubilation of the victors was permissible
at a fourtli-of-July frolic.
Hxintig for Good Water.
The city council have been looking
around in the vicinity*of the city to as¬
certain whence they can obtain ample sup¬
ply of good water in the event the water¬
works enterprise is prosecuted to com¬
pletion. Different streams and springs
have been inspeetsd. Last week a bold
spring in the rear of the home of Judge J.
W. J. Taylor was visited and found to be
excellent water and is thought to be of
sufficient capacity for the purpose desir¬
ed. That spring is about a mile from
the city and the route over which the
piping would have to be laid is not a
rough one.
Notwithstanding the council have been
authorized by a vote of the citizens to
establish waterworks for the city, they
propose to move cautiously and prudent¬
ly in the matter so that when the plant
shall have been placed it shall be at a
proper point whence an ample supply of
water can be had under all circumstances.
As custodians of the city's interest they
! desire to be specially careful to avoid
| j mistakes that will conflict with the same
in executing this important trust.
This is right and proper. Indeed it is
evidence of their fidelity to the citizens
who have entrusted them with the ad
ministration of the city government,
- Hasty and rash procedure in a matter of
such magnitude and importance might
ited to serious troubles that can not be
foreseen.
The establishment of good waterworks
in the city on a safe basis would be an
enterprise quite commendable to the city
and ultimately beneficial to her people,
While from one standpoint the expense
attaching to the same seems to be a huge
financial burden for the city to assume,
vet from the standpoint of the possible
benefits to accrue from the same it is not

LARGE MASS MEETING!
Hon. T. B. Cabaniss Unanimously
Indorsed by the Democracy.
On Saturday last a large number of
our citizens, composed of representatives
from each malitia district in the county,
assembled in mass meeting at the court
house, to take action relative to selecting
delegates to the 6th congressional district
convention. It was a most harmonious
body and what was done, was accom¬
plished without any friction whatever.
The following are the proceedings of
the meeting:
Forsyth, Ga., July 7th, .1894,
On motion of T. II. Talmage, Judge G.
J. Wright was made chairman and E. M.
Smith, secretary.
On motion of Dr. B. F. Rudisill, a com¬
mittee on resolutions consisting of one
member from each malitia district was
appointed. The chairman appointed the
following committcee: J. T. McGinty,
chairman, J. II. Sutton, A, L. Perkins,
J. H. Mott, W. J. Garr, Jas. English, J.
O. Holmes, J. W. Bostick, S. D. Martin,
A. C. Jackson, Henry Evans, Reuben
Williams, Henry Smith, T. R. Talmage,
and W. C. Corley.
The committee reported the following
resolutions which were unanimously
adopted:
Whereas we, citizens of Monroe county
in mass meeting assembled, believe that
we, as a nation, have reached the period
in our history when momentus questions
are demand pending, and our national interests
the watchful care and earnest
consideration of all the people; that the
future is pregnant with grave results,
and that the solution of the great nation¬
al questions now pending must be had at
the hands of able men, who have proven
themselves to be true and faithful; and
Whereas, the great reforms in the ad¬
ministration of our national government,
demanded by our vast and varied inter¬
ests, must be attained through the prin¬
ciples of a safe and sound democracy,
and by men who are steadfast to those
principles; Whereas, and
we deem it prudent and prop¬
er to commend our public servants
who have proven themselves to be effi¬
cient, zealous, capable and unwavering
in ted discharging them; the public trusts commit¬
to
cheerfully Therefore, be it resolved first, That we
and heartily indorse the noble
record made in congress by our able and
faithful representative, lion. T. B. Caba¬
niss, the present incumbent; and that
we commend with sincere approbation
liis course in promoting and guarding
the interest of his constituents.
Resolved 2nd, That we earnestly in¬
dorse his persistent adherence to the post
of duty and liis readiness at all times to
answer auy legitimate demand upon him
as representative in the halls of congress.
Resolved 3rd, That it is with pleasure
we commend him to the voters of the Oth
congressional ble district as eminently capa¬
and qualified to represent the district
for a second term in the congress of the
United States.
lion O. H. B. Bloodworth offered the
following resolution which was unani¬
mously adopted by a rising vote:
Resolved, That each member of this
meeting pledges to tlie lion. T. B. Caba¬
niss. candidate for congress, hisjunfalter
ing support, and agrees to work -for liis
nomination with unflagging zeal until
the last ballot is cast in the convention.
On motion of Mr. B. S. Willingham,
Hon T. B. Cabaniss was allowed the
privilege of appointing delegates to the
congressional convention from Monroe
couuty.
There being no further business the
meeting adjourned.
G. J. Wright, Ch’n.
E. 31. Smith, Sec’y.
The League Convention.
The state convention of the Epworth
League will hold its annual convention
in this city next week beginning at 1®
o’clock on Thursday and continuing for
two days. Dr. 3fonk, of 3Iacon, Dr. W.
A. Candler, of Oxford, and other able
ministers are expected to be in attend¬
ance and the session promises to be one
of much interest. We trust the short
stay of the delegates among us will be
beneficial to our community.
Our local league has been organized
and in operation about three years, and
the workings thereof have not only been
beneficial to its membership but whole
some to the community. It is a band
of Christian workers, and is quite a good
school for moral and religious training,
! The session of the convention with us
will no doubt inspire the loyal member
j ship with increased zeal for their noble
j work. It is hoped that the people from
the town and surrounding county gener
ally will attend the sessions of the eon
vention and learn more of its noble
workings, its grand aims and objects.

A Mixed School.
i An important local question now en¬
gaging the attention of the fathers and
mothers of the city and vicinity is wheth¬
er or not we shall have a mixed school,
or, in other words, whether we, as a com¬
munity, shall adept the coeducation sys¬
tem. its This decisioiVinges is afcijkpoi'tant question and
upon much pertaining
to the future educational iuterest of our
town. History presents no truth more
appalling than the fact that as ffie facili¬
ties for education, culture and refinement
in a community are abridged and circum¬
scribed the evidences of decay and decline
in all things pertaining to man’s well¬
being and moral elevation increase.
Notwithstanding the mania for money
and the greed for gain that has become
so universal in this country, yet candor
compels the concession that the best
thing parents can do for their growing
children is to provide them with the
very best possible religions opportunities
and the most favorable methods for men¬
tal develQpmcnt and the acquisition of
knowledge. Realizing this truth, a large
number of the fathers and mothers of
this community are concerning them¬
selves as to what is the best and most fa¬
vorable educational system they can
provide for their children.
We would not assume the roll of dicta¬
tor touching this grave question, but
taking into consideration our present
surroundings, and backed with a teach¬
ing experience of a number of years in
mixed schools, it is our candid opinion
that the establishment of a mixed school
in our town would give our school inter¬
est such impetus as would be afforded in
no other way. It would not only inspire
our citizenship with an educational en¬
thusiasm, but would beget in school boys
and school girls such a spirit of emula¬
tion as is seldom engendered by other
educational systems. Further, it would
create among these same classes a strong¬
er thirst for intellectual attainments, and
such an educational pride as is too
alarmingly wanting among the pupils of
many male and female schools. The
giant powers of male and female minds
brought into daily contact through this
channel would be more fully and more
rapidly developed, and the ultimate re¬
sult thereof would be a more thorough
education of our boys and girls.
Besides, when wo remember that the
culture and refinement of the world is
based upon the refining influence of
women, is it not reasonable to conclude
that the class room contact of boys and
girls brought about through a mixed
school would have a refining and cleyat
ing influence on the sterner sex? Prac¬
tical judgement aside from observation
dictates such conclusion.
If the combining of our schools under
the coeducation plan will bestir our citi¬
zens generally to a more lively interest in
our schools, and will present the oppor¬
tunity for a more thorough education of
our boys, then let the experiment be
tried.
We are glad to note that our school
trustees have taken the matter under
advisement, and we trust that after a
satisfactory ascertainment of what our
educational surroundings demand, they
will be prepared to act advisedly in rela¬
tion to this important matter.
Shelters for Stock.
Some years ago The Advertiser
sprung the question of having shelters
for stock built by the city on the vacant
lots in rear of the business blocks front¬
ing on the public square and advocated
their erection. At that time the matter
w*as talked of to some extent but was not
pushed beyond that. Recently the city
council has taken the matter under ad
visement, and after maturely considering
the pros and cons, have decided to erect
the shelters and are proceeding to have
the work done. It is proposed to divide
the shelters, when completed, into stalls
provided with *a feed trough Ac. This
will supply the farmers of the surround¬
ing country with comfortable quarters
for their mules and horses, while in the
{ city, cared where for. they This can be properly fed and
is right and proper and
but discharging a duty that the city peo
: file o""e to their country friends who are
the chief supporters of the city. The ex¬
! pense attaching to the erection of these
j shelters and stalls will be merely nominal
-while the benefit to the stock will be
| great, and the saving to the owners there
j of no small matter. While it may not be
| so regarded by many, yet it is a fact, that
Uie want of proper care and treatment of
f arm stock is a considerable financial
leakag eupon the farmers of this country,
For a horse or mule kindly and properly
cared for will do 20 per cent better ser
vice while at work and will serve 30 per
j cent longer than one illy treated and
poorly eared for.
Cabaniss Should be Returned.
Uatnesville Gazette.
The people of the Oth district will set
a bad nrecedeut, if they refuse to return
Hon. T. B. Cabaniss, their present repre¬
Such sentative, to congress for a second term.
action would be without any valid
reason, and we think it would bo nothing
short of a repudiation of faithfulness. It
is an undisputed Georgia fact that no man in
congress from has been more
devoted to liis duty than Mr. Cabaniss.
lie has always remained at his post of
duty, and even now when his political
interests seem to require his presence in
the district, he remains at the capital,
true to liis people, attending strictly to
the busines before congress.
There are three special reasons why
Mr. Cabaniss should bo returned to con¬
gress, not to consider that it is customary
to give a man a second term,
The first reason is that he is a friend to
Mr. Cleveland’s administration, administration and no
man opposed to the should
lie sent to congress. It would only bur¬
den congress with men wlio should be
elsewhere. It would only still further
prevent congress from carrying out the
demands of the people. It would cripple
the whole democratic administration. It
would simply divide a house against
itself, and it would bring disaster to the
hopes for good legislation and ruin the
democratic party. The people can do
nothing more foolish than to send to con¬
gress a man record opposed to the administra¬
tion. The of Air. Cabaniss shows
that he is a better friend to the adminis¬
tration than his opponents in this race.
The second reason why lie. should be
returned is that in the house of repre¬
sentatives, ho has been careful and
watchful about the interests of the peo¬
ple. On all public questions hejis a dem¬
ocrat, and voting consistantly with democra¬
cy the democratic platform, and he
has been fearless and uncompromising in
the discharge of his duty. lie stands
by liis convictions like a man, and votes
in accordance therewith regardless of
personal consequences, A man of this
character, with two year’s experience in
congress, can be of more service to the
district than any now man. Therefore
it would be folly to replace Mr. Cabaniss,
with his influence and experience in the
house, The third with a now and untried man.
reason is that Mr. Cabaniss
has accomplished much for this district
in a local way, lie has been exceedingly
diligent in this respect, and what he lias
done, proves conclusively that lie has
considerable influence wiih the powers
that bo at the capital. We believe every
post office in the district has been filled
with a democrat, and a number of other
nice appointments have come to the dis¬
trict through liisiinfluence. No demand
has been made upon him that did not
receive his prompt attention. No man
could have done better than Mr. Cabaniss
lias done, and lie deserves the commen¬
dation of his constituents, in a ro-elcction
to congress.
In mental, physical, moral and demo¬
cratic qualifications lie is the equal of
any opponent, and in experience and in¬
fluence in national legislation, lie has de¬
