About Our Water Works
Th3 committee appointed by the
City Council Monday- afternoon to go
to Valdosta and inspect the new syss
tern of pumping water which has been
adopa^l.by that city will probably go
down this morning on. the freight
train. The following gentlemen
compose the . committee: Mayor
Hopkins, Aldermen Mallette, Jerger
and Stephens. Superintendent E. O.
Thompson will a ? ao go down.
The system of pumping water Into
the stand pipe that is in use here is
anything but economical or satisfac
tory. On the contrary it is extreme
ly expensive and uncertain. Break
downs, in the machinery are frequent*
ly occurring, each one of which en
tails a heavy expense upon the town
for repairs, besides the dangers in
cident to a scarcity of water. We
understand that there is now even
greater uncertainty attached to' the
working of the machinery than ever
before;, a break-down which will
seriously affect the water supply and
require weeks to repair threatening
to occur at any time. Thomasvil'e
has spent thousands of dollars on her
water works already, but too much ia
at stake to take any chances for the
sake of saving au expenditure of a
few thousand more
The present system cannot last
long; a new one wi 5 ktv.e ^ be put
iu sooner or Uvuv then why not do it
now, and stop the «xpenuive mode of
puin. ing as &>ou as possible?
From what we have heard of the
system used by Valdosta we think it
just ib3 thing needed here, la order
that our readers may get au idea of
hat ihe system is, we publish the fol>

The Fence. Question
s have before alluded to the elec
tion to be he’d to the- Duncanvide drs-
trict on the 14th prox. on the fence
question. A meeting of the ‘cU’zens,
to discuss the subject, will be held at
Duncanville on the 30th ins?. Prom
inent speakers w.ll address the mfets
ing and all the citizens of the district
are urgently invited to attend.
To cur mind, this is a question cl
vital importance to the farmer*, not
only of Duncanville district, but of the
whole county. It is the initial step,
aud if **no fenc-V’ wins/as wY believe
it will, it w 11 be but a short tttae be
fore a large \partj tf not all, of the
county wtlL do away with teiices.
When this ^hall have been done our
farmer* will have made, a long stride
toward better times and greater pros
perity. Yfe are aware, that (here are
many who'oppose almost everyihiug
that is new, antf believe thafo!d ways
are thebes’, but iu everjr section of
the SQtnh where the no fence law has
been adopted the people are pleased
with the result and are in a more pros
perous condition than before. The
cost of fences in any county as dense
ly populated' As'Thomis, is r greater
than the aggregate y|dQe ol the live
s‘ock,and,it will ukebut a mompn’.s
ri-fl etiox for any farmer to bp con
vinced that this is a heavier tax than
the agriculturists ct this cr ary'oTur
section cm »uoc?s* r u!ly .widist*nd
Relieve the farmers ol this one run
of expense, ar d if he cleared no hin'g
tn »r»?, he would have'a snug sura .to
add each year to his credit stx^unt.
But saving - in fences is not his. only
gain He sives the lossos incurred
by the straying of his stock, the con
lamination by mixing with' inferior
and diseased stock, and ths time it
takes to look after stock running at
large. He saves also by being freed
from the depradattons of mischievcin
stock wh’ch not unfrcqucntly amounts
to conciderable aud results In bad
leehng between neighbors. With the
no fence law, fewer stock will be kept,
but the quality would overbalance the
loss in nnrobtrs. We have noted th?
working cf this law in other sections
« f ihe state and er quired tnto the con
di’.ion of the farmer*, and withoni a
single exception we found milk, but
ter aod meal more plentiful and the
farmers " mere prosperous
and better satisfied. iodtvidual>y we
have no interest in this question, but
Wv have ever advocated to the best of
our abi!i*y, whatever we believed to
be for the"brst iuterest of the county,
a -d we are fully persuaded that r.o one
t’..Uig wou d prove a greater blesiiqg
to the farmers of the Duccinvilie dis>
irict than the adoption of the no fence
law at ihe coming election.

Mr. R A. Varaedoe Dead
We find the following notice of the
death of Mr. Rutus A. Varnedoe in
the Atlauta "Journal.. The deceased
was a brother of Capt L L. Varne-*
doe, of this city, and has many relas
lives and friends here who will leatn
of his death with rrgret:
Mr. Rufus A. Varnedoe is dead.
After au illness of nearly three
years he pissed peacefully to rest yes
terday afternoon at 6 o’clock at bis
late residence, 508 Washington street.
Nearly three years ago Mr. Varue>
doe, after' having led a most active
and energetic life, was forced to give
up any active busiuesa pursuit on
count of failing health. Although of
a robust and strong constitution, he
became sj much worse iu a little
while that he was unab’e to leave bis
house. The malady which had at
tacked him was dropsy.
During bis long il!nes3 he was pa-
t'.ent and thoughtful of thc>6d around
his fireside, a characteristic which had
always marked his married life.
A few days ago he began to fail
rapidly, and yesterday as the shadows
of evening fell, a soul that had been
great in human love and sympathy
took its flight. through the twilight
aud the gathering stars.
Mr. Varnedoe was born in Liberty
county, Georgia, on October 10th,
sixty years ago. Thirty-six years ago
ha married Miss Anna M. Rofeen-
biugh. In his early married life he
lived ia Thomasville, where he bad
charge of the Southern Express Corns
pany. He cat^e * to Atlanta 7 more
than twenty years ago to act as the
agent of an iusurance company. His
last active v employment was in the
clerk’s office of the superior court
For many yean be was an ardent
worker as a member of the Kpightp
of Honor and did much towards
■building up .Hie order in this section
of the south. His life was insured in
the Knights, of Honor for $2,000.
pi 'business circles Mr. Varnedoe
had many warm friends. In bis
family cirde3 his life was one of loyal
love and. sincere Jevotioo. Among
(be jewels with which eternity shall
adorn his efown the brightest will be
that which pays tribute to a father’s
consecrated love.
The funeral will take-place to-mor
row morniogat HH30 o’clock from
(he residence. The interment will be
in Oakland cemetery.

Jackson, Miss, Nov, 22.—For

in the confederate veterans’ meetings
and elsewhere of {wilding a . home for
deserving confederate soldiers aod
their .widows unable to support them

has been incorporated by some of the
leading citizens of the state, and a
meeting has been called in this city
for Dec. 12. next, The plan is to buy
the former residence of Jefferson Da

The sessioo of the legislature is fast
slipping away, and yet nothing has
