Northern and Southern Factions Can not Agree In Colony City. Fitzgerald, Ga., March 14.—Because of the division of the social element Into Northern and Southern factions, the business harmony of this place ls seriously menaced.

The unique condition of affairs has progressed beyond the ludicrous, and is affecting various lines of business, one heavy property owner having withdrawn his patronago from the local Insurance firm, the wife of whose manager recently entertained the opposite set, and many purchasers are sending out of town for all neces sary supplies, rather than patronize firms connected with the movement.
