Times-Exterprise: I am sorry to see bo little disposi*. tion upon 'the part of tho people of ibia community to discuss the race question. It is a subject that need3 discussion. , It is a subject that every body-in this country should take a lively interest in. It is a subject in which sixty odd miUious of people are deeply interested. Everyman, wo man and child,.white and black, are alike interested in' this subject. The question' ia whether these two races are to remain .together permanently. I presume no one will answer this question in the affirmative, then the sooner we get apart the better,'for the. longcrwo wait the more trouble we will find in separating. No white man who looks well to the elevation of his own race can afford to advocate a permanent stay of the negro in this country. A permanent stay simply means an amalgamation of the two races, which is too wicked to be thought of, for it is evident that God never made two races of people as far apart as the Caucasian and African to ever become one. We made the greatest mistake of our lives in bring ing the negroes.to this country, and wiil make a skill greater mistake if we should fail in removing them to themselves. They did uot come here of their own account, we brought them here, as fcuch we are under obliga tion to remove them, and help them the best we can. There is one thing cerLaiu, we can not afford to keep them here permanently, the sooner we understand that, the better it will be -ar all. It is quite natural for those who have beeu bom and raised in.tho 'S. 'ub where they have had negroes to wait upon then! all their lives, to feel that they would like for them to etuy awhile longer. In fact here are many reasons why we south jru people may not feel disposed to give them up just now, but when we come to take sufficient thought upon the subject, we will uot hesitate one moment, tor we wi'l see that wo are mure interested in ibtir going than anybody i-lse, for il the wont should come to the worst, we *1 course would he tlic greatest sufferers. We must? no: allow such a st*t3 of affairs to conn: t<7pas?, ia other words we must not wait for this thing to do itself. The race question left to settle itse f means something terrib’e. Let’s all go to work and encourage the negroes in going. All they need is proper en couragement. S J, Conn Straw Hats, In this age and day of progrei rapid transit Thomasville n getting her New York mail several 1 later than heretofore. Surely ht uot to be retrograding. There's a screw loose somewhere aud it should bs tightened up. Oat of the thirty-three people who have gone to Chicago from Thomas ville since the World’s fair opened the Monon Route has carried twenty- nine This shows the popularity of this route and its agent, Mr. R W, Glading, with our people. Jim aud Charley Pittman went to Tallahassee via the bicycle route on the fourth. The former made ^he trip wi'.h ii'tin difficulty, but ih-i !a»- A Sad Death. , Georgia Southern and Florida. It is with a feeling of sadness that It is likely that the above road will we write of the death of Mr. Grafton E. Beverly, son of Mr. J. 0.-Beverly, which occurred at the latter’s home live miles from town at four o’clock yesterday afternoon. Mr. Beverly was seventeen years of age ard was, in every respect, a model young man. He was ill but a very short while, having jieen taken <Jown last,-Friday. On JasL Monday he became un conscious, in which condition he re mained until his death." He was a student of the South Georgia College, and was held in the highest esteem by both pupils and faculty. He enjoyed the love and friendship of every one who knew him, and by his quiet, pleasant and gentlemanly man* ners, and gentle disposition, made fast friends of all withwhom he came v in contact His death is a sad blow to his parents, and the whole communi ty will join with ns in expressing profound sympathy. The funeral services will be held this afternoon at two o’clock at the residence of Mr. J. C. Beverly, five, miles out on the Monticello road. The burial will take place immediately after in the Dekle burying ground. Election of Officers. At the regular monthly meeting of Neptune Fire Compauy hek! un Tuesday night the following officers were elected to serve the ensuing year: Foreman—A. H. Palin. First Assistant Foreman—E. W. Mickler. Second Assistant Foreman—VV. W; Beasley. Secretary—John Stark. Treasurer—R. S Heeth. Engineer—M. N. Wertz* Assistant Eogineer—H. L. Rogers. Pipemen—John Grant and E. Levy. The Neplunes have taken on new lile lately and the company is now in a flourishing condition. The mem bers take great interest in the organi zation, and the meeting held on Tues day night was the most largely at tended of any for months. This is one of the oldest organizations in the town and we are g’ad to know that its prospects for a long and useful ex istence are yet good. soon be out of its entanglements, The News of yesterdays says: "Mr. H. P, Smart is back from Baltimore, where he went to attend a meeting of the bondholders of the Georgia Southern and Florida rail road. He says the meeting was largely.attended and that the matter of the disposition of-the property was taken udder consideration. ’The bondholders; decided that it would be to their interest to boy in the’road when it goes under the ham mer, and they will be the purchasers. The application for the sale of the. road, which is a valuable piece of properly, and which, in connection frith other linee, would certainly be a paying one, will come up in the Bibb county superior > Court on the 10th of this month. Judge Bart’ett is dis qualified to hear the application and pass upon • it, and It will lie heard by some other judge whom Judge Bart lett wfil appoint. The road has been in the hands of a receiver now for some months. A union of this line with others as the Mr.cuu and Northern and the control of the two by the Seaboard and Roanoke system and the formation thereby of a trank line to the north and east, has been contemplated, but of late there has beeu very little talk about such a combination. The ^fois mation of such a trunk line, from Florida to the St. James river would develop one of the richest sections on the eastern slope ot the Blue Ridge mountains and for that matter one of tho richest east of the Mississippi. “ Fbere is but one lieu on the prop erty, the first mortgage covered by bonds outstanding to the amount of $3,420,000 and these were nearly ail represented at the meeting at Balti more. The purchase of property by bondholders may result in its entering some system which would be bene ficial alike to the road aud the section which it traverse*.” Thomasville has been watching with keen interest the developments in the direction of the G. S. & F. Our people hope, and expect, when the road passes into new hands that the in completed line from Tifton to Thomasviile will be finished. The silver men at Creede, a large mining town in Colorado, are talking about seceding. The News of yester day Bays: “Last Saturday the people of Creede, Col., at a meeting, adopted resolutions asking that the constitu tion be so amended that the far west ern states could have a president and a house of representatives'of their own to^Iegislateupon matters of inter est and trade. They did not demand absolute separation, but only such separation as 'would permit them to control their own financial and com mercial affairs. They have an idea that the eastern states control ’the states of the west in all financial mat ters, and therefore they want to cut loose from the east” ^ The south will probably be called in to arbitrate the trouble.

The news, of course, was quite a surprise to the many friends of the young couple in this city, as their friends were not aware that such a move was contemplated by either party. The bride is a most excellent young lad)’. She has spent the pas: yar or two in Taomisvill the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Glading, and hvs uradc many warm friends among our citizens who admire her far her many womanly graces acd charm!i g disposition.

We desire to joiu their many frie-uift in tendering congratulations. The newly married-couple will return home to-night The Times-Democrat calls for a re duction in railway rates from New Orleans to the World’s fair from $36, the present round-trip rate, to $20. This, it daims, would sell six tickets where one is sold now. This is true of the whole southern country. Money is scarce and people wont go to Chi cago unless the reduction in fares from regular rates will pay a week’s hotel bill. That’s about the size of it.— Times Union, Jacksonville. Columbus Enquirer'.Sun: The good times are coming, in fact are at hand x Like all other parts of the country, southwest Georgia has felt the mopey stringency and things have looked dark. But the dtty is dawning, and the sun of hope begins to peep over the eastern horizon, and the financial mists are gradually being swept away, and all the people are beginning to welcome the coming day. Buzzard Bay, Mass., July 4.— That the people m%y not become alarmed at the non-arrival of Presi dent Cleveland at Gray Gables, Mrs. Cleveland this morning telephoned newspaper men here that she had received advices from the President saying he was in good health and may not reach here for two or three days yet Yet he may arrive at any time.

This was by tiie Hopkins Real Estate Agency, which sold to Mr. Robert Beardtn, ot Moultrie, the beautiful home of Mr. T. E. E. Bartlett, on Dawson street. The price paid was $3,000. Mr. Bearden wiil occupy the place ue his residence. We are glad to know that Mr. Bearden will income a citi zen of this place. Doctor Reid stole a march on his friends by slipping off to tho World’s fair without letting them know any thing about it. Even his neighbor, Sd Thompson, with whom he had, at one lime, an Hgtcement about.killing each otht r’s chickens, didn’t know of his departure. We hope he will not get takcu in by any of those oily irrinere,”in the Pfidway PUiaanco. ery one will heartily join us in dring for the doctor a pleasant trip, t-al good time, and a safe return to me, family aud friends in Thomas- Mr. and Mrs. Rob^ r t Bearden, of Mou’.lre, are at the Stuart. " They will probably leave to-raorro,w for tbe mountains where they will spend the heated term. Mr. Bearden haa recently purchased the handsome property in Fietcherville, formerly owned and occupied by Mr. C. W. Wiggins It i3 not unlikely that Mr. Bearden will make other invest ments here. Thomasville will gladly welcome him to citizenship. We publish elsewhere a communi cation from Dr. Cobb on the race question. The doctor is in earnest on this subject, and He writes interesting ly about it; but we cannot agree with either bis premises or conclusions. The race question, if left alone, will adjust itself. It would.be a positive cruelty to deport the well-to-do, in telligent negroes in the bouth to Africa.' Besides they do not wish to go. The South is their natural home, they arc with their best friends here, and will do better here than in any country on earth..

The preseut schedule - trom New York, it it is not changed, wi’l knock a big hole iu the tuurUfc travel to Thomasville. Thousands and thous ands of capital has been invested here bote’s and boarding houses. They have drawn great crowds every win ter, enriching the railroads by their patronage, and now it is not the fair thing to arrange a schedule which will tend to force travel to Florida, leaving Georgia’s principal resort town in the larch. We feel sure, however, that when the facts are properly set forth and known, the wrong will be corrected. ie prtseui railroad schedule, if allowed to remain unchanged, will give Thomasville a black eye this winter We hope the road wiil im prove it. Mr*. Dora Wilson aud daughter, Miss Rosa, of Tampa, are visiting in the city They are the guests of Mr. and Mrs. K. T. Maclean. The Glorious Fourth. The fourth of July passed off very quietly in Thomasville. The only difference between^ that and every other day was that in the afternoon a few of the business houses closed up, and the Guards had a parade in the afternoon-. The weather was intensely warm an# those who observed the holi day spent the day at home trying' to keep cool. ’ Married. At the residence of the bride, on Wednesday, Mr. E. G.

We regret very much to hear of the death of Mr. Larkin Mims, who died -Wednesday at his home in the Springhill neighborhood.
