—Hardaway street Building Up.
Among the recent transactions In
real estate here was the pu - Uase by
•Mr. James It. Evans, of a nice home
on Hardaway street, which he u now

from Mr. Joe Goldberg. Another
home on the same street was bought
by Mr. J. A. Johnson who will oc

that Is fast building up and is one
of the pleasant residential sections

raise the question ot why, if such

Kirkwood, an Atlanta suburb, has
remained silent so long with Frank
In a condemned murderer- cell.
The part of Mr. Ragsdale's af-

vicinity of the Terminal station,
whose description corresponds ex
actly to Conley, say that he had kill
ed a white girl In the pencil fac
tory, Is direct and Beems convinc
es far as It goes, but the only
explanation the preacher has been
able to give of his strange silence
all this time Is That an acquaintance
named Barber, whom he told of the
conversation, advised him to say
othlng about It “because there was
great excitement about the crime.

APPLICATION FOR A BANK

GEORGIA, Thomas County.
To the Honorable Philip Cook, Sec

The undersigned, whose names,
signed by each of them, and resi

this our petition. In pursuance of an
Act of the General Assembly of the
State of Georgia, approved Decem
ber 20th, 1893, and Acts amenda

magnificent address on farm devel
opment work In Georgia, and proved
hlmseU to be a verile leader of the
forces of the campaign, looking to
the betterment of farm conditions In
Georgia. In Introducing him to the
audience, Hon. Stanley Rennet
■"oastmaster, of the occasion, de
clared. .“Mr. Clark has done more
than any other one man toward lift
ing farm conditions out of the mire
in the State of Georgia." After a
few preliminary remarks, Mr. Clark-
said:
"I would like to say the Toast
master went plum wild when he said
that I had done more for farm de
velopment In Georgia than ativ other
man. The onlv reason he said thl
shout me Is because he did not have
some other fellow here to say
about him. (Laughter. 1
“However, I cannot deny my In
tense Interest In the development of
the farm. It is a • *hing that has

1 love old Mother Eattn, and we
all would love her if we -bought
more about the matter. From her
bosom comes everything that makes
a man healthy, wealthy and wise,
and from her comes all the strength
of our body, which goes back to her
when we die. And from hnr comes
the fleecy cotton that clothes us, and
we love to say "Cotton is King.' And
If we back the King up, Cotton real
ly Is King, but a king, like cotton Is
entitled to be backed up hy his sub
jects, through the raising of corn,
oats, rye, alfalfa, cattle, hogs and
many other things we could name.
I sometimes thjnk that the rea
son we are as sorry as we are, Is be

God has been good, giving *0 each
Its own peculiar advantages, but
conditions In the country must be
vastly changed before we can ever
expect the tide that is rolling from
the country to the city to be turned
back to the country.
Suppose you go to a man who has
moved from the country and ask
him under what conditions he would
move back to the country. He would
probably hesitate, and then say, 'with

to live In the country until condi-
ests. If such men are not satisfied
with the present conditions here, let

Let the county to which he moves
compete with old Thomas In. the
production of boef and pork, and see
who comes out of the big end Of the
horn. We would like a communi
cation from him occasionally, as to
whether the farmers of tils new
home arc furnishing tho merchants
of the county with bacon and lard.
We would like, also,- to know
whether their convicts were eating
home-raised or western bacon.
Before moving let him visit our
lending merchants about over the
-’ounty, and see w-liat kind of baron
they are furniaUng their custom-
Let him go to our convict
i>s, also, and see If those heal

Thomas County baron. Let him
visit Brooks county where they made
an unsuccessful effort for the stock
law. and study conditions there a
hlle. So much for that.
Now, you will not find one-tenth
of the genuine farmers to be in fa
vor of a no-fence law. What we call
a genuine farmer is the man who
lives on, and conducts his own farm.
The man who wants it is the man
who has taken an enlargement of
the upper story, and moved to town.
He could then afford to let his fence
decay, while negroes, and poor,
homeless white people mako cotton
for him.
This portion of the county Is, and
always has been, opposed to the no-
fenco law, and It is because the ma
jority of us own our homes. We
are prospering and not yet ready to
try a new remedy. We will ven
ture to say that in no community
In which the people own their own
homes will you find many ailvo
cates of the no-fence luw.
On this question, the ballot box
should bo opened to no man who
lives Inside the corporate limits of
town. It Is a question that uoes
not concern the man In town, ex
cept It be him who owns a farm,
md the towns should let the coun-
ry say whnt It wtants and what It
does not want.
Now, In conclusion, allow me to
say that my Views on this question
are open to public criticism, and I
cheerfully invito any t&an who may
differ with me, to discuss the ques
tion through tho columns of The
Press or Times-Enterprlse. I am
always open to conviction, and If
any man can show me that the stock
law would be an advantage to the
farmers of Thomas County, then I
leld. Otherwise. I stand pat.
Yours for the farmer's Interests,

The No-Fence Question Discussed.
Well, we see they have brought up
the “no fence" question. The peo
ple t-hould investigate the question
thoroughly before they vote. Taxes
are already high, and of course the
no-fence will be expensive, for wa
will have to build line fences be
tween Thomas and th*e surrounding
counties, besides expensive gates.
3hculd we get the no fence, con
ditions will not be any bettor than
they are now, in our estimation. It
is said we will hove better stock. We
do not see why. i If we -would, we
can have pastures for them, under
a fence law, as well as a no fence
law. Talk about the high cost of
living, it will be high then. You
see If It don’t, or that is the opinion
of this writer. Let’s hear from
some other contributors.
Another tiling to talk about and
consider is: If the no-fence is such
a good thing, why not have a stock
