B. BURR, Bnalnes. Mnnnter, Newsy Notes from Brunswick—an Example forThomasviile. Albany has raised $12,000 lor a street railroad. Albany is a hustler. The republicans have raped the youngest state in the Union, Mon tana, by sealing two republicans from that rotten borough. The only decent thing done by Mi- zcll in Florida, was the act of resign ing an office which he had prostituted to the basest of political uses. Ingalls uttered one truth, in his in terview with the X. Y. World. He said Cleveland would be renominated in 1892. Rhode Island is a small stale; but she’s loud. At least the heavy rever berations of her late election has startled the republican party from Maine to California. Major McGregor- was ncquitl0L yesterday, at Warren ton, of the charge of murder. He killed Col. Cody, a prominent citizen of that place last fall. The jury were out several days. Notwithstanding the fact that Chi cago is famous for the large number of hogs which she has handled in the past, there will be more hogs in that city, during the World’s fair, than ever before. And they will be scalded, skinned and scraped. Editor Turner talkes very “brash” to editor Glessncr, of Griffin. Turner has dropped his Spanish and uses plain, very plain, English in addressing his contemporary. There appears, to the close observer, a speck ol blood on the moon. Notwithstanding the high protec'- tive views of the republicans, that party had to change front on the question of free hides. The peop’e wanted cheap shoes. And theykvant a great many other cheap articles of every day use and consumption. The democratic party wifi give them these The proposition to tax beans 40 cents per bushel, has raised a prolonged howl In Boston. Men gesticulate wildly, and talk through their nose pro fanely, while the spectacled women, and blue bloods, shake their heads and predict the early downfall of the republic. Beans are as sacred in Boston as Bunker Hill. Editor Shepard will soon rival George W. Childs, as an obituaryist. Speaking of the demise of Mr. Ran dull, the great and good Shepard says: "Mr. Iiandall went from Philadelphia to the New Jerusalem.” Neat, hut not gaudy. Suppose the Knights of Labor, and all the other trades unions in Georgia, the State Medical society, and the dif ferent religious, professional and mer cantile societies should mectand adopt a platform that every Democratic candidate would have to pledge him self to support before they would vote for him. And, suppose the Demo cratic party should embrace all these platforms iu its platform, wouldn’t it be too much of a Joseph’s coat lor the people to swallow?—Albany News. , Will it Materialize ? The Berrien County Pioneer says: In another column of to-day’s paper will be found a notice of an applica tion for a charter for«t railroad. Thus we see materializing, little by little, a railroad which we mapped out last summer as the next on the chessboard for this section, running from the gulf coast, near Apalachicola, Fla., via Tallahassee, Thomasville, Moultrie, Tifton, Irwinville, Abbeville, Eastman to Augusta, there connecting with the Richmond and Danville system for all points north and east. Brunswick, April 16th ’90. “Brunswick by the sea” is the way they write it not. No^ that there are other Brunswick's by mountain river or forest. O no, but the mar velous growth of this place the past few years must ho idcrtifled in some tangible way, so that even lie who runs may read. The fact is this town has grown from the interior sand hills to the sea arms which sweep in grace ful curves about her fair proportions, and the name too must grow, serving a dual relation to history and pride. This is why they now write it ‘‘Brunswick by the sea.” It ought to bo “Brunswick to the sea ” tlic sea is actually 18 miles dis tant, hut Brunswick is here by a Georgia democratic majority', and several precincts to hear from. In these latter days of energetic development it requires something extraordinary to surprise us, but it almost surpasses belief, to he told that five years ago Bruuswick was a town of rather unknown quantities, meager trade, dilapidated buildings, unkept streets, limited wharfage and barest accommodation for shipping. With a nominal population of four or five thousand, and no ambition above the average country town, she was erstwhile content to sit at the feet of her sister coast cities, and feed on their crumbs of munificent? chari ty. She was in the condition of the man who sat down to a feast and hes itated to partake for fear of the cost, and too near starved to let it alone. But the Rip-Van-Winkle slumber is broken. The tocsin of progress had sounded the challenge of her neigh bors, Atlanta, Macon, Savannah and Jacksonville; she could not ignore it, the issue must be met; it was life or death. She has gathered her resour ces and ability and handled them in a masterly way. The result is won drous, it speaks volumes; it is a record that our people ot Thomasville may inspect with interest and ponder with profit. Please hear in mind that five years ago Thomasville had a national reputation, and was a home word, where Brunswick # was unknoivn. But what has she done. In 1886 she handled 30,000 bales of cotton ; this season 250,000. Two large cotton compresses have been erected. One hank increased to five. A magnificent hotel, easily the peer of our Piney W oods or Mitchell Electricity, gas, water works, street railroad. Handsome buildings, paved streets, improved park and countless resi dences. from cosy to elegant, all over the city. What of the population ? There is a startler, from 5,000 to 12,163 in 4 years! Think of it, over doubled. What is the secret of all this? True, Bruuswick lias an indisputable advantage as a seaport, hut so has Feruandiua and Port Royal. She has capital, and so have a hundred other towns. It is brain and brawn, backed by indomitable energy in the upbuilding of industries and factoring establishments which require the presence and service of the busy la borer, It is estimated that 5,000 of her population are actual laborers depeudiug upon their daily earnings for their daily L-read. This, at the low average of 81.00 per day is $130,- 000 circulated per month by this class alone. The honest daily laborer is indispensable to the growth and de velopment of any town, hut he must have work aud plenty of it. It is at) open fact that when the Mormons settled Utah they desired independence to the utmost possibili ty as a foil to gentile imigration. They established industries of every variety, to meet every demand, and so rapidly have they grown in wealth and influence that were it not for federal legislation they would assume a nationality ot their own. Thomasville has no seaport, hut she has more; upon her borders are the forest and the field whose products go to make the sca-greal. She has the raw material at her feet for fac toring in the greatest abundance, which cities a thousand miles away pay the costs of transportation upon to obtain. She has capital and men of intelligence to direct its use. Why should Thomasville send her cotton to Albany, Savannah or Brunswick to he compressed, thence forwarded North to be manufactured and resold to us will these costs added. Why purchase vehicles in the far North west when our forests are filled with timbers and iron manufactured in 200 miles of us. Why send to New Eng land for preserves, jellies and canned vegetables when, our gardens and groves are groaning beucath their production. Thomasville should have in two years time a compress, a cotton facto ry, n shoe factory, a wood-ware facto ry, canning and preserving establish ment, wagon works, a barrel factory, cigar factories, broom factories and the list might he extended indefinite ly- We are not advertising the advan tages or performances of Brunswick, though we accord her the grand praise deserved, hut by contrast would show that what she has done, Thomasville can, and more. The tidal wave of progresses abroad aud it ought to be utilized ere the ebb sets in. Standing still and w-aiting for more railroads to come is of little advantage. Our people must, work out the salvation of their own pros perity. Bystander. rilOMASVILLE, GA., —-DEALKIt in—- A NICE ASSORTMENT INSTOCK. HAEDWAEE Stoves, Iron, Call and examine for yourselves.
