Straight democratic tickets will be dropped into the slot to-day. Vote early, but not often. The present cool spell has decreas ed the demand for ice. However, there is a good demand for it here all winter. Don’t fail to read the announce ment ot Miss Laura Jones, in reter- ence to her grand opening of Fall and Winter Millinery. It should not be iorgotten that the Thomasville Iron Works are prepar ed to turn out all kinds of first class work. They employ the very best workmen, and turn out jobs equal to the best in the state. There are two exquieitely hand- painted lace curtains on exhibition at Wolfl’s. The designs, and their ex ecution, stamps the designer and work er as a true artist. They were de signed and executed by Mrs. J. P, McAuley, the Principal of the South Georgia College. The specimens of art are well worth stopping in to sec. Charles Rice, principal of the Clay street colored school, will opin his school this morning. The principal of the Clay street school has made it one the best color ed schools in this section. He is a good scholar, understands imparting knowledge, and is a successful trainer ot youth. In addition to the regular curriculum, bojs will be learned how to handle and use tools. The new in4> dustrinl idea is a most excellent one, and should insure the school a good patronage. OUT FOR A RIDE. A Pleasant Part;/ out Monday Night. The cool fall mornings and even ings nre just the thing to induce the lovers of the saddle out for a ride. There is a peculiar indescribable,some- thiug in the woods that to many makes fall the most charming of all the season To the lover of gun and dog, it reminds him that the season for a “day off’’ after the little brown quail, away from the city’s busy streets, is approaching, and to each and every one tho atmosphere is crisp and invigorating. Every pleas ant day now parties and couples can be seen out on the boulevard, the river road, Glen Arven, or some other of the many attractive drives around tho city. Monday night found a merry party out enjoying a delightful evening’s ride: The party consisted of Mr. S. L. Mallard and Miss Fannie Hopkins, Mr. C, S. Bondurant and Miss George Mitchell, Mr. Maurice Grausman aud Miss Lula Baker and Mr. B. M. Comfort and Miss Stella Baker. Others will probable follow the example of this the first riding parly of the season. Open Cotton. Tho farmers in this section report more open cotton in the fields than they usually sec at this season of the year. In some places it is nearly all open, Tho recent heavy rains have improved the crop considerably, and there is a general scarcity of hauds to pick the cotton. Thomasville’s Trade. Editor Times-Emtkrpsise In an article referring to tho above subject you recemly wrote the words “Thomasville should be widening the borders of her trade instead of draw ing them in ” This is the pertinent statement of a terse truth. The mat ter of Thomasville’s trade is a debated question. Some hold one opinion while others difler, but laying aside optimism and pessimism for tho once, let us examine the cold facts in the case. The truth will not hurt, and if it does,’tis only the surgeon’s scalpel that lays bare the excrescence that injures the body politic. It is appropriate first to determine if the trado has decreased or contract ed, aud if so, then tho cause. The bed rock of Thomasville’s trade is cot ton. As with many of our sister towns in South Georgia where manu facturing is an unknown quantity, the thermometer is gusged by and fluctu ates with the quantity of cotton mar keted at the prices that obtain. Now for some statistics, which it is proper to say is not the result of guess work, or trade-heated imagination but gathered from reliable business men of the respective places. HALES OF COTTON SHIPPED. From 1880 Thomasville 11,000 Boston 3,000 Cniro 1,200 Ocblockonee , 300 Metcalfe 0000 Total 15,500 22,2C0 Ten years ago Thomasville handled over two thirds the entire crop ship ped from this county ; this season she received less thau one third. If she had only kept up with the procession; her average would have been nearly 15,000 bales, but as a fact she has fall en behind one-half, and plucky little Boston sees her even and goes 1,000 better. Do we flatter ourselves that the money for this cotton marketed nt the four other railroad stations of Thomas county is brought and circulated here, Not much! The merchants of Boston and Cairo buy and sell as cheap as Thomasville. Their stocks are equally nssorted and large, they are hustlers for trado and they “are getting there.” As evidence, sec Boston with her 30 stores and 2 warehouses; the past sea son her cotton buyers advertised and paid one-fourth above market quo tations, which actually drew cotton from Monticello, Thomasville tint} Quitman. See Cairo with her gO stores: Ochleckonee with 8; Metcalfe with 10. Here are 68 business houses bounding Thomasvillo on tho four points of the compass, not less than 10 nor exceeding 15 miles. They cir cumscribe and limit the territory which lias hitherto been tributary to Thomasville, and that portion of her retail trado is gone, unreclaimablv gone. Another pointer is the action of our own business mon. Three Broad street firms have found it expedient to fol low the ebb of the tide and establish branches elsewhere; one at Monticello, another at Metcalfe, and still another at Boston. Three of our young busi ness men have recently removed to Brunswick, another has just closed out and on his way to Alabama. Why is this all true? Why did Mahomet go to the mountain ? The trade wont come to Thomasville, so Thomasville’s young business men must go to the trade. Boston, Cairo and Metcalfe are not booming on fancy prices for real estate and a three month’s grip on the pocket books of Northern vis itors. Not long ago, Mr. Editor, you gave us two pictures of Thomasville, 1880 and 1890. The one was vacaut stores, 1 bank, 1 hotel, no opera house, no water works, nor express delivery, nor gas, nor electric lights. The other was glass store fronts, 2 banks, 3 ho- this, opera house, gas and electricity, (you might have included the ice fac tory and laundry,) and thereupon you framed your picture with the garlauds of prosperity and the robes of pro gress. Your intent was good, but did you build upon tho real factors of true progress? Granting the banks and hotels, are not the other items rather tho outcome and pride and de sire for luxury, for which we ]iay well! Do they bring increased population, S rovide employment, and create pro- uction ? How happily the statement could you have written: “Now, a 8100,000 cotton factory, a 850,000 shoe factory, a canning factory, a cot ton compress, and other enterprises of like nature employing 2,000 opera tives.” These nave actual existence in some of our neighboring towns, and proves a fulcrum of power in tho establishment and retention of trade.
