AYe do not take into account the great impetus the road will give the town. Every de partment of business will feel the quickening impulses of the new road. With an independent line to Cor- ilclc, there connecting with n number of.systems, Thomasville will open her gates to other lines. And they’ll come. PER ANNUM i. •'* Mr. J. II. Jenkins has just had completed a new model of his sash' balance patent that is both useful and ornamental. It is made of curleyjpine and the grain being highly polished, shows up well. Our correspondent at lamonia, Fla,, informs us that two colored women got into a row there the other night, and Roseina Gilam had her throat cut by Sallie Walker. Dr. Robinson attended tho wounded woman, but had no hopes of her recovery. Do the merchants of Thomasville want to regain their lost trade? Then let them help to build a new railroad which will make Thomasville a com petitive point, thereby giving them advantages in freight rates which can be had iq no other way. Mr. H. AY. Kurtz, of J. H. Seward & Co., Baltimore, came up from Quit- man yesterday to spend Sunday in our city. Mr. K. bos.bought melons on the line of the S. F. & AV. Ry., for a number of seasons, and has put quite ,.&• lot of money in.circulation among the farmers in this section. Pear Rates. Agent AVilder, of the Southern Express Company at this point, told a Times-Enterprise reporter yester day that pear rates for the coming season had not yet been arranged. The Express Company is waiting for the railroad lines to make its freight rate charges. It is not likely that any marked' change, from -the rates of liut year Will be mtuta., * W It Will be on the im of July. gl^B “Yours, most of the time, J. M. Blackshear," says that the big picnic at Duncan- villc will conic off on Thursday, the • nth of July. Mr. Blackshear says « everybody is invited. The occasion will be a very enjoyable one. The eating editor of the Times-Enterprise will be there For More Than Half a Century. Mr. E. M. Young, one of the staunch farmers of the county, walked into tho Times-Enterprise office yesterday and renewed his subscrip tion. Mr. Young has foil,wed the plow for fifly-cight years, which is a fiuc record, ft may be that tho fact that he has always paid for his court ty paper may have something to do with his hale old age. At any rate his example is worthy of imitation. Round Trip Tickets, The Savannah, Florida & AVestcrn Railway will sell tickets at the rate of one fare lor round trip on July 3rd and 4th, limited to July 6th, to all stations on its lines. All lines in the Southern l’as c enger Association will sell round trip lickets to those wishing to go be- yond the line of the S. F. & W. Ry. Tho Melon Crop at Pelham. ^ Mr. John J. Mize, of Pelham, has already sold 4 cars of melons on the Jrack at $126 net, each, and has ship ped 6 or 8 more, for which he has had no returns. Hon. J. L. Hand has shipped even more than Mr. Mize. The money re ceived tor melons at Pelham will run way up into the thousands this season. Death’. Mrs. Mary Pratt Small, wife of Gen. M. P. Small, of the United States army, died in Baltimore June 24th. Mrs. Small spent last season in Thomasville, the guest of Capt. H. M. Sapp. A Pointer For Merchants. With a new railroad, making this a competitive point, thus insuring low rates ol freight, and a cotton compress, Thomasville would regain all her lost cotton. Will our mercantile friends make a note of this? And then they will please add the wool crop for fifty miles north of us. Railroad Rumbles. Mr. D. S. Dixon, of Iamonee, Fla., was in town yesterday. And hereby hangs a statement. Upon being in formed that Thomasville was, at last, going to make a supreme effort for on independent line of railroad, and that Col.’s McIntyre and Wright and Mr, T. C. Mitchell had subscribed 815,000, each, Mr. Dixon said: "“I am willing to risk my money where Col. AVright, Gol. McIntyre and Mr. Mitchell are. willing to risk their’s.” Continuing he said: “You are authorized to put me down for a share." Mr. Dixon lives eighteen miles- from Thomasville, in the state of Florida. Ho does not own a dollar’s worth of property in this town. But he does his trading here, sells his cob* ton here, and realizes that a new road would be worth much to him. Besides he recognizes the fact that ’tis a safe investment. Certninly when a gen tleman, qnd a cool, clear headed, bus iness man to boot, will thus come for ward and aid tho projected’ Toad, without owning any properly here, surely our own citizens will not be slow in hacking the enterprise. The day upon which it is announced that Thomasville has subscribed the one hundred thousand dollars, neces sary to build the road to Cordelc, will be a Red Letter day for the town. It will sound the death knell of mo nopoly, emancipate her business men and put the place on a foundation as solid as the rock of Gibraltar. Speed the day and hour. Mr. D. J. Sheffield, whoso financial ability is well known, and whose investments are always of the most solid character, takes 82,000 in tho new roa«Y fj AVlien Mayor Donkins, who was on the subscription committee at the meeting on Friday night, an nounced that Air. J. AV. Reid, had put down 85,000 for Mr. J. AVyinau Jones-, of Englewood, N. J., the crowd broke into a ringing cheer. I t would ltavo done Mr. Jones good to have heard that shout. Mr. Jones hasn’t forgot ten Thomasville, and Tliomnsville will not forget Mr. Jones. Thomasville now appeals—and that appeal will not lie in vain—to her sons for her preservation and future prosperity. Let to-morrow, Monday, close lip the Hundred Thousand Doi.ears necessary to give the town ail independent railroad. Every subscriber to the Cordelc road, if it is only one share, will he on the ijrniiml floor with the men who have put in their thousands. They will share, in proportion, in all the profits and benefits accruing from tho investment. Just wait a littlo while and you will hear something drop. Every one is perfectly sanguine now Read This. I'ribuuc ol Rome. It is a fact, and a great pity, tiiat some people are blind to their interest when it comes lo sustaining a news paper. They cannot understand lb c wonderful work it does for a town in which it is published, how it heralds forth the advantages of its section, con stantly voicing its needs, illustrating its growth and advocating its interests far from the narrow circle in which the paper is published. They know that it costs a dollar a year and that is all they think of. The most insignificant country pa per in the state is the biggest inslitu tion in the town where it is printed; and notwithstanding the editor may not himself appreciate the fact, he is really an important factor in the growth and developcment of the country. The free advertisement that a news paper gives a town in a year is worth thousands of dollars to it; and its gen eral value to any locality cannot be over estimated. It should he placed side by side with all the worthy institu tions of its town, and given equal en couragement w tli all of them. A gentleman of Cleveland, O., in a to the Morning News says: “The letter south wants a rowing machine factory somewhere within its borders. AVitli its wealth of woods, iron and coal, sido by side, machines uouhl be manufac tured so cheaply that they could be sold for less than any sewing ma chine now in the market. There is a sewing machine ninniifacfurcd in this city which sells for 88. I am sure that it could lie manufactured in the south so ns to he sold for 8(1. It is in every respect as good as any sewing machine now in use. There arc great possibilities in the sewing machine. The demand for it is beyond the sup ply, and will continue to bo for years.” — Georgia is to have another great railroad systcm.to be built in connection with the Chattanooga, Rome and Col umbus, the Columbus .Southern and other existing lines. \V. B. Lowe left lor New York to consummate arrange ments with Messrs. Sullv, Borg and Dow, the capitalists who furnished the money to build the Chattanooga,Rome and Columbns.—News. K. M. MAIXKTTB.
