MARIETTA GA.,
fHURSDAY MORNING AUG. 8. 188 Y.
R. J. Redding, of Atlanta, has
been appointed superintendent of
the state experimental farm at
Griffin.
Crry Marsuan CorvELL has re
signea. G. T. Swan was elected
Marshal in his place, and James C.
Sanges, Deputy Marshal. l
RoMe went wet Tuesday by 549 |
majority. It is said 1300 negroes
voted had failed to pay double poll
tax. 'The Ordinary has been serv
ed with a notice of contest.
Hon. James H. Guerry, of Terrell
county, has been clected judge of
the Pataula circuit, to fill the vacan
cy caused by the death of Judge
John T. Clarke.
Tne Georgia Legislature has been
consuming its time over the discus
sion of the lease of the Western &
Atlantic Railread for several days,
and have arrived at no definite con- l
clusion.
O~ last Friday, C. M. Hull, editor
of the Boliver County Democrat,
was sho! and killed by L. A. Weis
senger, editor of the Review, both
of Rosedale, Miss. The tragedy
was the Fesult of a newspaper con
troversy. |
JouN L. SuvnLivan, the prize
fighter, was arrested in New York
last week, on a requisition made
by Governor Lowrey, of Mississip
pi on Governor Hill, who honored
the requisition. Sullivan was car
ried to Mississippi. i
ELr PICKETT, a free negro at the
beginning of the war, enlisted in the
Confederate service and dia good
work on the field He was badly
wounded and came home. He now
lives in Bartow county, Ga., and
petitions the Legislature for a pen
sion. That body has decided to
put him on the list just the same as
any other Confederate pensioner.
J. G. Rickardson employs 3,000
people in the manufacture of linen
in Bessbrook, Ireland, a town of
which he is virtually owner. For
forty years no liquors have been
sold there, and there is neither
prison, pawnshop nor pauper in the
town. No words of comment can
strengthen the sermon these facta
preach.—Wesleyan Advocate.
Minrierra hasa law against hitch
ing horses to shade trees or fences,
and yet this law is only partially en
forced. On Tuesday a large num
ber of people were in town, and our
country friends hitched their horses
to the fence of a private residence
and the result was four panel of
fence were pulled down. Now, this
citizen, because his house is near
the square, should not be made to
furnish hitching places for the
horses of the county. The city
should either provide hitching
posts, or the marshals should en
force the law and protect the eciti
zen from damage of this kind.
A horrible state of affairs exist at I
Streater, 111., where 6,000 miners l
have been locked out from employ- !
ment for several months. The tele
graph tells us that babies and child
ren are crying for bread, and that
the condition of the men and women
is deplorable in the extreme. The
citizens’ relief committee of Chicago
are doing noble work in trying to
teed these poor, starving people,
and their case isone which demands
the substantial aid of all sections of
the country. Here is another in
stance of the beauties ot high tariff
protection.
INFAMOUS TRUSTS.
Trusts are legalized thefts. They
arerobbery by lawful process. They
are a stand-and-deliver, of which no
court can take cognizance. They
invest a few with authority to levy
and collect a tax from the many.
They give ten men the power to op
press sixty million men, women and
children. They enable fitty milllon
dollars to earn twenty million dollars
in one year. They compel people
to pay interest on money they never
borrowed and never had. The lead
ing trusts have earned from fifteen to
twenty per cert. per annum on the
money invested, yet they have man
ufactured nothing, built nothing cre
ated nothing. They have merely
reduced the manugement of a
line of industry trom twenty
thousands men. They have com
pressed a thousand heads into one
head. They say only how wmuch
sugar on the market, and that must
be sold at the trust fixed price.
This is the sole business of all trusts.
It owns a staple article of consump
tion and permits neither competition
nor reduction of price.
TOO TRUE.
The more a newspaper man exerts
his ability to please a whimpering
publig, the more good he does for
a town, the more charitable he be
comes, the more he is criticized.
Speaking ot this a writer has said:
“The man who can run a newspaper
without being criticized, censured{
and threatened bas never been found.
He is a barren ideality, beautiful to{
think about, but incapable of tak
ing on mortality and associating with
vulgar humanity. It is impossible
for him to please everybody as it is
for everybody to please him, and the
sooner he makes up his mind to this
stubborn fact the better for every
body voncerned. 1f he works hard
for public good, he receives private
censure; if he compliments merit,jhe
is censured by jealous demerits; it
he approves morality, he is cursed
by immorality; if he tries to be fair,
he is censured by the unfair; if he
makes a wmistake, few are found to
i overlook it orapologize for him. No
matter how good his motive may be,
how innocent his purpese or how
studied his writings, he is picked to
pieces, misrepresented, maligned,
ridiculed, sometimes licked and sel
dom ever defended. He works from
twelve to fifteen hours a day for a
bare living, while other men get
rich around him. He works up a
marriage notice many yards long te
the queen’s taste tor nothing, and
is threatened with a libel suit or a
duel if he records a drunken spree
of the groom six months afterwards.
Yes,,it is impossible, we repeat, for a
newspaper man to please everybody.
As well attempt to chain the wind
or stop the furious lightning.”
THE GRASPING POWER OF TRUSTS.
Talk about trusts? Thereare five
trusts announced to havs a combined
capital of 8179 700,200, distributed
among them as {ollows: The lead
trust has $83,000,000 capitol; the su
gar trust, 850,000,000; the cotton seed
oil tru5t.8,45,000,000; the dealers and
cattle feeders trust, $30,000,000 and
the;American cattle trust, $14,000,
000:—total $179,000,000. The big
salt trust which we have spoken of
heretofore with 817,000,000 is said
to have fallen through on ac
count of enough stock not being sub
scribed.
And now comes the news that a
syndicate, controlling an enormous
amount of foreign capital, is attempt
ing to buy up all the mills in Fall
River, Mass. The agent states that
the trust will not stop at Fall River,
but will buy up all the principal
cotton mills in the country.
Capt. Corput of Cave Springs,
continues to make large shipments
of peaches to New York, shipping
from 100 to 150 crates per day.l
There is about a bushel in a crate‘
and thelowest they have ever netted
him per crate was 90 cents, which
was among his first shipping. His
returns last week showed a net
profit of nearly 83 per crate. The
fruitis fine, and he has shipped up
to date about 1,800 crates. He has
2,000 bushels ready to ship. The
only thing that stops him is wet
weather, as they must be dry when
‘packed. He has begun to ship
grapes and has shipped forty crates
up to date. His freight bill with
the express company is frequently
lovcr 8100 per day. He will use this
season 81 .&)0 worth of crates.

people that he can be a man.—Al
