As its adoption by Congress would

in his forecast.

Thore is a movement on foot in
Atlanta to preserve the Exposi
tion buildings permanently for
the purpose of holding a fair of
some sort every year. On this
line, the Constitution suggests a
big exposition in the Gate City

will doubtless carry out both the
general and particular sugges
tions.
A Standard man dropped into
the House of Representatives last.
Friday in Atlanta, and found
Polk’s Representative, Hon.John
B. Ayers,m bis place and attend
ing promptly to business. Mr.
Ayers is always on hand in the
House, votes on all measures as
ho thinks wisest and best, and
attends all committee meetings
of which lie is a member. He
enjoys a well-earned reputation
for honesty and conscientious
performance of duty, and has
the confidence and esteem of his
colleagues.
Congress re-convened Monday,
and will doubtless remain in ses
sion, except for a brief holiday
vacation, until the 4th of next
March. The feature of the open
ing session was the reading of
the President’s Message. Among
its most interesting—and unwel
come—features is the request for
a standing army of 100,000 men,
and the suggestion that, crimes
against foreigners be taken from
the jurisdiction of state to that
of Federal Courts. His Peck-
sniffian suggestion that “if” there
are any trusts Congress should
crush them at once, is calculated
to “rattle one’s slats” with hila
rious glee. We are glad to note
that he calls for an abatement of
the burdensome taxes which his
administration has s -placed upon
the people.
SOME FURNACE NEWS.
ANOTHER BIG ORE WAHHEIl AT
GRADY.
Some Changes In Personnel nt*
Officers—Mr. David Huccoedo Mr.
Zimmerman an President,
At the annual meeting of tho
stockholders of tho Alabama &
Georgia Iron Company, held in
New York in November, thore
wore somo changes made in tho
personnel of that company’s of
ficers.
Mr. Eugene Zimmerman tend
ered liis resignation as president
of the company on account of
tho onerous duties of his vast
railroad properties, which the
directors reluctantly accepted.
Mr. Zimmerman could not he
present in Georgia and Alabama
as much ns lie desired while hold
ing the chief office of the iron
company, and will now divide his
time between Cincinnati and
Now York, where his large rail
road interests are financed. He
still retains his holdings in the
iron company and is a member of
tho heard of directors.
Mr. F. SI. Davis, of New York,
was chosen to succeed Sir. Zim
merman. Sir. Davis is one of
the largest stockholders, and lias
been ft director from the organi
zation of the company. He lias
been South twice this yoar, and
is highly pleased with his Cedar
town investments in particular.
Sir. Noah H. Swaync, 2d, was
ro-eleoted vice president,and also
made treasurer. Tlio duties of
general manager were added to
his official count, and ho thus
becomes in fact its executive
head hero on tho grounds. Ho is
a most conscientious and pains
taking official, and under his
splendid management tho fur
nace is now turning out a fine
quality of pig iron that meets a
ready salo in Birmingham, Pitts
burg, Baltimore and other large
iron markots.
Sir. SI. O. Guiss, tho efficient
assistant treasurer and auditor,
was re-elected to those positions,
and his excellent services will for
another year aid the company in
its iron and mining develop
ments.
Sir. J.J. Simpson,who IniB been
tho company’s storo-keopor at
Grady, succeeds Sir. Frank Ford
in tho Cedartown commissary,and
will be witli Sir. W. O. Barber in
the company store hero.
Sir. 0. W. Simpson, of Rock-
mart, succeeds Ins brother as
storo-keeper at Grady. Tliqso
gentlemen are good business men,
and are reckoned among tho best
employees of tho company.
The management has asked tho
East ifc West railroad to construct
1200 feet of sidetrack at Grady,
which it is said that road will
build at once, the iron company
will erect immediately another
big 4-Idtt washer, install another;
stenm sho.vel and put on a dum
my engine to shift tlio ore ears
With tliis equipment,' the com
pany would then mine 1000 tons
daily of fine iron ore, the capac
ity which Sir. Swayuo has been
steadily striving to reach. 'The
Grady payroll alone of this com
pany would then amount to fully
$1,(100 a month.
The Alabama & Georgia Com
pany is the largest dovoloper of
Georgia’s iron resources, and
Cedartown is the scene of its
greatest activities. Its industries
contribute largely to our progress
nnd growth,and its handsome pay
roll makes a substantial impres
sion on the business pulse and
trade of our city. Its conserva
tive business course nnd liberal
policy with employees and the
public deserve the greatest con
sideration at the hands of our peo
ple. The company hns closed
larger contracts for charcoal,lime
rock and other materials for 1901
than ever before, and the coming
year promises the greatest era of
practical developments in its

The Twelfth Annnal Illustrated Book
Number of The Outlook contains sev
eral features of Btrong and peoulinr in
terest. Most notable among these is
tho group of short artioles called “The
Century’s Greatest Books.” In this ro-
plies are given to the question which
naturally arises in the last mouth of tho
nineteenth oontury, namely, "What
books of the century just olosed have
most influenced the life and character
of the oentnry?” Among thoso who
contribute are: James Bryoe, Edward
Everett Hale, Henry van Dyke, Presi
dent Hadley, of Yale, George A. Gor
don, G. Stanley Hall, and Thomas
Wentworth Higginson. Fine portraits
of eight or ten of the authors, who are
indicated by the opinions of these
writers as the most important of tho
contuiy, are inoluded. ($3 a year. The'
