THOMASVILLE T1MES-ENTRPR1SE, THOMASVILLE, GEORGIA, JANUARY 31,1903 THE OLD RELIABLE ^VKlH C POWDER Absolutely Pure THEME fS NO SUBSTITUTE tucs-thurs- -at i THE LUMBER INDUSTRY. The thiteenth arm cl ccnven.ic the asscciLucn of scr 1 hein lumbermen is now in session at New Orleans, La People in this section of Gecigia wi’l be greatly invested in the condition which they find the hunter business. South Georgia has developed maivel- onsly in the past ten yeajs as a lumber ing disci .cc. So g.eat has tl s develop ment been .hat it is feared by seme per sons that the available timber wi’l soon be exhausted. ' There has xmq eshouably been a marked ih.nn.ng of the t?mbe/, and it is phh-y evident that preveniative meas ures must soon be taken, or tlie p 't of finfcl exhaustion wi:l not be long delay ed. There’s a way of F’esei, 'ig the AuesU. The iiabcreu L.nds of northern Europe have been wo.bed f*. r centt es, ana to all appetiunces trey are now as flW from exhat slion as ever. Tins svste of affairs is'tne direct result of the rigid enfo.cement of laws regelating foresty. There are no such laws in Ameiica ai d never have teeD, but unless they are socnirrde the crg?c, «.* ■ \ j ^ *. be lost. We hail yv lilt de’ight the awaLer. ng of interest on U is subject, as is evidenced by the Appalachian pa k movement and by general comment tl ’oughout the counir /. The lumber industry has been cf un told se. vice in oj en ng up South Geor gia to the eyes cf ».te country, but ihe lumberman bniided here even better than he knew. While he was oper'ng np the country he was lay ing the foe id- ation of agricultural prosperity. TC the lumber industry had been exhausted ten years ago, or even five years ago, South Georgia might have remained forever an ordinary slow-going section. But iiie industry was not exhausted, and possibly may never be; and even now, we are independent of it or any other single Industry. The case here is analo gous to the conditions a hundred year* ago With this whole country. The in dustries of the United States were far from diversified, and a tariff was neces sary as an incentive to make them so. The infant, commerce, soon outgrew his swaddUng clothes, and now those clothes only bind his growth. We do not mean to say that the lumber indus try is binding the growth of South Georgia, but we do mean to say that South Georgia is not dependent for her prosperity on her timber interests. The passing of the forest only makes room for the advent of the farmer, and a great many more fanners than lum bermen can prosper on a given area cf ground. The lumber industry means great deal tc us, but we would not have our friends of other businesses grow easy over its possible exhaustion. The lumberman’s convention at New Orleans finds that the past year has been a “banner” one in the trade, and that the coming season opens up under the most favorable conditions. DEMOCRATIC 1PLATFORM. The New York American prints an iulfc es.ing article i:cm ike pen of rep resentative James M. G gusof Georgia, click-man of the Demcc..i.Lc Congres sional Camurtiee, which we take pleas ure in reproducing: “The next Democratic platfoim, while taking no backward step, rhotdd speak with no uncertain sornd on the trusts and the tariff. “In my opinion we sh&’i Deve-^be able to control the t -osts effectually < cepfc th ou^h the reform of the ta. ff. “Eveiy other plan of regr’ating th se great combinations of capital offered by the Republicans ; s either a bluff oi subterfuge.

And the feet that t ust made goods are being sold more clea'i’y abroad thin hon e is proof conclusive that Arne* cans are being taxed not or’y for the '•'chment of the Lasts, but for the beref t of the foreigner as we 11 . The 'stand pat” idea means, in the language of old Pricker in “Frederick the Great f.nd His Court,” “He who is ilch today knows he wi’l be rich tomoirow. And he who is sii v ng today knows that he l 1 ’ be starving tomo.**ow,” a condition not tolerable in a free lepubkc, whose foundation stone is ‘equrl eights to ?’V’ “The taaiff and the tr Iff sheVered osts, control the one by reft.^iing the ooh3r,’ w ” undoubted'y be the g eat is re ’ll 19C4. “Of corpse theie r e oilier questions, •ut I ca r ^ot d’seuss them v' lrn iiie mits of this inteivlew.” « A we’ 1 of co n wh-skey hss been fo.md Pottsylvania county, Vi-g'i 'a.

IndMSt’-i&t Development. Chattanooga, Tern., Jan. 26.—The prog •ecs in Georgia indust, lal develop ment for the week just closed, as re ported by The Tradesman, includes the following Hew organizations as ai the most important: Savannah—Broom factory. Albany—Ice factory. Cedartown—$10,000 development pany. LaGrange—lee factory and eiectric light plant. Atlanta—$25,000 lumber company; $20,000 lumber company; $50,f CO vault company; $50,000 dental manufacturing company. Sylvester—Medicine factory.. Cartervllle—Cement works and pow- • plant, projected, combined capital $2,000,000. The Macon News thinks that Kipi-cg is a poet of consequence. He can rr-ke a nation angry! According to that, Al fred Austin js more consequential. He ‘has made the whole world weary. If it takes Germany, England and Italy more than a month to to whip Venezuela (and they have not finished up the job yet,) how long would it take three of them to make a dent in Uncle Sam’s plug hat? queries the Savannah News.

The Men Who Compose this Ogani* zation of Skilled Musicians. Thomasville has been enjoying great ly the innsic of Shannon’s Orchestra, which is at the Piney Woods and Mitch ell House this season. The orchestra comprises seventeen pieces tliis year and undoubtedly the biggest and best band in the south. Everybody speaks high praise of the music 'of this ex cellent orchestra. They give concerts every afternoon, at which the full orchestra plays. The concerts occur on alternate afternoons, at the Mitchell House and the Piney JVoods, and form a pleasant feature of life in Thomasville during the winter season. Everybody wants to know the per sonnel of the “men behind the instru ments” and we present a list of the musicians. Every one is an artist in his line, Mr. J. Byron Shannon, the director, is too well known in Tliomasvi’e to need any iat: oduct-.cn. This is his fifth season ..ere. Severe! of t‘ e other musicians have been here before. The orchestra is composed of the fol lowing gentlemen: 1st violins —Wm. Beck, C. A. Warren. 2nd violins—Raj mond H. McDonnell, W. A. Cummings. Viola—Harolde Ladsberg Cello—Walter Kendall. Basses—Herman Liehr, Wm. August us Hurley. Cornets—Henry Smith, Alfred Banan. Horns—Sam Richte”, H. J. Libby. Clarionet—Herbert W. Wright. Flute—James Goddard. Trombone—Robert Denel Drums and Xylophone soloist—James Medcalf. The Darien Gazette says Teddy is a very small politician. And a very poor one they might have added. It is rumored that the executive man sion will liave its name changed and will be called tlie “Black House” dur- t ing Roosevelt’s administration. After all,'it may be that thece safe blowers who are going over the country may prove good things. They might be induced to operate on the Deleware sen atorial deadlock, for example, says the Mon roe. Advertiser, Notice to Tourists.
