It Is evident that the residents of the section Immediately south and southwest of Albany are determined not to struggle along very much long er without railroad facilities. Baker county has no railroad, and there are portions of Miller and Mitchell which are well removed from the busy lines over which flows the commerce of the section. During the last few days Cairo, the county seat of Orady, has come Into prominence as a seeker after Increased railroad facilities, and her citizens have gone to work with the evident determination to accomplish some thing definite before the enthusiasm of the hour has time to cool. Newton and Camilla have asked to be counted In, and the pledge of encouragement and support by Albany business men has been asked and given. While the Albany-to-Calro-and • the • Gulf move mont thus assumes promising shape, the plan of the Albany & Northern railway to extend Its line southward from this city to Newton, Colquitt and othor points has not been abandoned. There are still other schemes afoot but on the whole'the Cairo prospect Is decidedly the most promising on Al bany's horizon, In view of yesterday’s encouraging nieeilng of Interested parties In this city. fir. i TELEPHONES: .

THE 8MITH.WAT80N DEAL. Joe Ohl, the Washihgton correspond ent of the Atlanta Constitution, writes that Hoke Smith’s refusal to declare himself as between Senator Bacon and Tom Watson, In reply to the question put him at Cummtng, has created profound impression In Georgia cir cles In Washington, and the construc tion generally placed upon It Is that back of the Smith movement Is the probable candidacy of Watson for the Senate. Taken In connection with Watson's own boast In the November Issue of his magazine that he could defeat Senator Bacon In a primary open to all white voters of the state, Irrespective of party affiliations, such ,as Smith and his Populist supporters advocate, some Democrats believe that a deal Is on to bring Watson out as a candidate for the Senate, either against Senator Bacon or against Sen ator Clay. Griggs In Congress. From the Balubrldge Hearohllght. .We have no objection to Jim Griggs in Congress. He has served his peo ple acceptably and well. By his con genial manners he has bound unto hlmpelf “for keeps” men from the ranks of all parties and has In this manner been able to do more for his constituents than In any other - way. In addition to this, Mr. Griggs has been In Congress long enough now to become useful to the people, to secure prestige In the assembly and to be come more of a national figure. In days that are past the South has swapped horses” too often in this re gard. When Ous Bacon first entered the Sbnate, he had to overcome this same condition. We have all seen the wisdom of keeping this good man In harness. Today he stands as a bar rier of prominence against the on slaughts on the enemies of the South. So Mr. Griggs has grown, and we but express the conviction of thou sands of voters when we say that we are not anxious to see him “out of harness.” There are other deserving and able men in the Second Congres sional District, men who are well equipped In every way, but they would have to begin where Mr. Griggs did, and the district would have nothing to gain. As we see it, we might support an other, but certainly not from any con viction that a change would be for the better. Mr. Griggs has no opposition at this time, and we hope to see him lead on In the path he has mapped out, in so far as it looks to the public good; remembering, as he doubtless does, that the people of the Second Con gressional District are looking for great things from him throughout his future tenure of offlee. A View from Without From the Moultrie Olsierver. A few days ago the Observer com mented upon the comparatively large number of candidates in this county and the small number In Dougherty county. A gentleman, who Is a candi date, by the way, was discussing the matter with us yesterday. “A large number of candidates denotes a whole- sdme political condition,” said he. The reason we have bo many candidates in Colquitt county Is that we have a very cosmopolitan population and It is pos sible for any good man to get a nom ination for-office if he will hustle more than the other fellow.' We have thir teen districts and any district may pre sent its candidate and elect him with the proper amount Of work. There is no ring here to choke oft the outs. Iu Dougherty county there are only two or three districts and the politics of the county are controlled In Albany. The people of that county gave up In despair and ceased to protest against the ring, twenty years ago. Therefore, the lack of candidates, and the con trast between Colquitt and Dopgherty. I much prefer the conditions in this county.” Our Good Sheriff. From the Newnan News, Sheriff F. G. EdwardB, of Dougherty county, Georgia, is serving his thirty- second year in that office. In point of service he Is said to be the oldest sheriff in Georgia, although he Is only 57 years of age. Sheriff Edwards is so popular with the voters of his county that it is said they will probably keep him in the offlee for many years longer. Georgia Is getting along mighty well for a “ring-ruled” and “ruined” state. At This Season You Want Dried Fruit Prunes, Evaporated Peaches, Evaporated Apricots, Evaporated Apples.

The Camilla Enterprise says: “South Georgia does not possess any gold, Iron or coal mines, but she abounds with nature’s resources from whlph to gather untold wealth In abun dant crops of Cotton, Cane and Cauta- loupes; Hog, Hominy and Hay; Peaches, Potatoes and Peas; Timber, Turpentine and Tar. Her threo C’s, three IPs. three P’s and three T’s will produce more wealth than all the mines—a wealth that can not bo cor- nored by a few money klugs.’’ Another style and cure of delicious' meats, as mild and sweet as you want.
