Atlanta manufactures ajtiauocvcry day. The union depot in Atlanta is to be improved. It needs it. The House has passed the bill amending the charter of Thomasville. Mr. Wanamnkcr says in plain words that lie favors a one cent postage rate for half-ounce letters. The "Guess Who" column is a sum mer feature among the rural press. Frost will nip this innovation. Four men were hanged in New York city last week on the same day. Each one of them had murdered a woman. Dalton is still excited over what is alleged to be the discovery ol natural gas in that immediate vicinity. Sonic towns in Georgia do not need any more gas. Dummy candidates lor congress are thickening. You see, ’they are put out as feelers. But then it makes the embryo nominees leel good to see their names in type. Among the sad accidents recorded last week, was the wreck of a circus train. Wc were pleased to sec that the big elephant, which walks around the ring, was not injured. An extra session of Congress will be called for the 20th of October, it is now thought. The Speakership now lays between William McKinley, of Ohio, and Thomas B. Reed, of Maine Mr. M. 'I'. Lewman, ot the firm of M. T. lawman k Co., contractors of the DeSoto hotel, in Savannah, was drowned at Tybec, on Sunday alter noon. The deceased lived in Jcffer sonvillc, Ind. The Growth of the Country. 1 The Constitution publishes the flattering exhibit of the progress made by Thomas county farmers dur ing the last ton years, and comments ns follows: In the Thomasville Tim its, "S. G. M.,” whom we take to be Mr. McLen don, lias an exceedingly interesting article, the gist of which ue e.opy. He argues that the farmers of Gcorgi i has been richer. While Georgia and other southern states are encouraging new industries, such as manufacturing enterprises, factories, mills, Ac., Mississippi ups and says she doesn’t want any more "mills” in that state. are not growing pooprer, asserted, hut are growing Ilis proof is not only conclusive as to Thomas county, but it is encourag ing as to the whole state. W e have always held, as Mr. McLendon does, that the farmers of Georgia arc grow ing richer year by year. The Con stitution combatted Mr. Stephens and General Toombs on that very point in a long debate. The point wc now make is the point admitted by Mr. McLendon, that the wealth of the towns and cities is increasing at so much greater rate than the wealth of the country and village, that there is less of eo relation and harmony be tween these two forces. That state is most prosperous in which town and country piosper alike, and in which all progress is equal and all gioi'th symmetrical. " What Georgia needs is some force put at work that will uplift and strengthen her villages and her coun try sites and bring them up to the wonderful speed with which hci towns and cities are forging ahead. He will deserve well of the state who finds the force that is needed and has the ability to apply it. The Snelson Bill. The Snelson bill to pay membe rs of the legislature for the time actually employed in the people’s service is a good one, and should become a law. The l’ress would like to ask the mem bers who have voted four times against this bill, if they would be willing to pay their laborers for a day or two ol lost lime each week for several months in the yeat? If they would not, then why should they expect the people to remunerate them at the rate of four dollars per day for lime devo;cd to their individual interests or pleasure? Mr. Snelson is on the right track, and is sure to win in the end. 1 he l’ress wishes him complete success.— Quitman Press. Mr. McDonald, of Ware, laid it on to Snelson, the other day. "Liar," • fool," and other pet phrases were thickly plastered over the membei from Meriwether. Snelson is some thing of a crank, and has succeeded in making himself very disagreeable and unpopular in the house, but the prin ciple involved in his position is right. He does not seem to have much dis cretion, however, in advocating the reform measure which gave rise to the basting he received. LATEST TELEGRAPHIC NEWS. ANOTHER RESERVOIR BREAKS. Mahone, backed by administration boodle, is making a final effort to beat the democrats of Virginia. And the democrats of the Old Dominion, swear lie shall not succeed. Wc hope the democrats will not perjure them selves. Mrs. l)c Merrct—I suppose, major, that siuce the war the old time color ed aunty is rapidly becoming a thing of the past? Major George A. Kcr- ncll—Right you are madam, right you are. The boys consider them selves lucky now to be able to put up ■white chips. There are symptoms cropping out of a good sized row between North ern and Livingston, both of whom wish to control the Alliance vote for governor. Living-ton says he liasn t been treated fair, and Northern says he is in the race, for the reason that he understood Livingston was out. Too early, gentlemen, to begin the fight. Save vour temper and your wind, for the home stretch. The Constitution says, in speaking of Cleveland’s minstrels: Tbc mention of Jack Ilaverlv makes one think ot the minstrels which hear his name, anil that of the “young Napoleon of minstrelsy,” Will Cleveland. Cleveland has had re markable success in his managerial career. It is just such success—com parisons are odious, but can’t be help ed—as that of Jack Haverly, who was “way up in G” not many years ago but who has dropped down somewhere in the vicinity of Z now. "It has been stifled,” said Comp troller Wright; Saturday, "that the cities of Georgia are growing rich at the expense ot the country 'Ihere never was a more mistaken idea. I lie tax returns this years show that the counties where there are no towns or cities have increased in value more than any others. -This is especially no ticeable of the counties situated in the lower part of the state which are known as the wiregrass counties. The reason ol it is that the turpentine stills and sawmills have greatly increased the value of the land, and it has been found that where the woods have been cleared the ground yields a crop which is surprising. These reasons together have made a wonderful increase in the value of property.”—Ex Henry Shaw, the Great St. Louis PHIan- thropist, Dead—Kilrain in Mississippi— A Governor in a Smash-up—Anoth er Niagara Falls Fool — The Condition of the Cotton Crop. St. Lmfis, Mo., Aug. 25.—Henry Shaw, a venerable philanthropist and the best friend St. Louis ever had, died early this morning, without showing evidence of physical pain or su ffering. Purvis, Miss., Aug. 25.—State Agent Child- arrived here at -5:10 /clock this morning, having in charge Jake Kilrain, the pugilist. Sheriff Cowart was at the station when the train pulled in and at once receipted for the prisoner. Cn.viti.KsTox, W. Va., Aug. 25.— Gov. E. W. Wilson and his aged father-in-law, Dr. J. F. Cotton, met with a very serious accident last even- while out driving. The horse took fright at a point where the road runs along the edge of a hank. Dr. Cotton had his left shoulder broken, and Gov. Wilson was painfully hurt about the legs and is confined to his bed. Pnovinr.xiT, R. I-, Aug. 25.— Spring Lake reservoir, nesjr Fiskville, in the southwest corner of Cranston county, about fifteen miles from this city, which supplies the whole row of mill villages along the Pawtucket river, hurst this afternoon. Throe persons were drowned, and some damage was done to property. A an named Ytow, who was about a quarter ol a mile off, noticed the wa ter coming through the masonry of the dam, as lie describes it, in a stream about as big as a barrel. Niagara Eai.i.s, Aug. 25.—Car lisle 1). Graham, of .Suspension Bridge, made his fourth trip through the whirlpool rapids this afternoon in his barrel-shaped contrivance. His purpose was to test it before essaying the Horseshoe Falls. The barrel was kept straight by heavy weights and went through the whirlpool and down the river to Lewiston, seven miles, in twenty-five minutes. Graham was badly shaken up, and says lie wa3 never so glad to get out of any place in his life. He is determined, how ever, to try the falls, and may make the attempt to morrow. Washington, Aug. 24.—The weather crop bulletin issued by the signal office to day, read as follows : Numerous reports from the corn belt indicate that, this crop will be secure from frost by Sept. 15. 4 he reports from Kentucky and Tennessee state that rain is needed to insure full drvo!npemeiit of the corn and tobacco crops. In the West Gulf states, including Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas, staple crops are much improved by dry vvcalhea and excessive sunshine. The cotton crop was improved. Rice cut ting and cotton picking arc in prog ress i;i Louisiana, and up to this date the hull worms and caterpillars have caused hut slight damage. Crops are also li uch improved in the eastern portion of the cotton region, and while the weather was favorable in Mississippi and Albania, boll worms and caterpillars are coing much dam age to the crop, causing much appro hension.

Don’t you know you are paying 15 per cent, on some account the merchant can’t collect? He has to charge those who do pay, enough to make good his losses in bad accounts. It is perfectly legitimate and business-like, too! He has to live. But while it is perfectly right in him to charge you that way, it is very foolish in you to pay it, hccauso you can make that per cent, yourself by buying your goods for cash. I will take your order at regu lar prices, and then discount it 15 per cent, for the cash. Respectfully, M. P. Pickett. Notice of Election.
