THE PROGRESS OF THE SOUTH*
It is only one year before the next
census is taken. It will reveal many
astonishing figures to the eyes of
our own people. Our progress since
3880 has been simply phenomenal.
Cities have oiossomed into life and
power, that before were liamlets in
the bosom of the wilderness. Old and
almost buried towns with a new
blood infused iuto their veins, and a
now spirit breathed into their nos
trils, have risen to their feet, and
stretched forth their mighty arms in
the growing strength of a fast re
turning power..
E?ery section of the South has
prospered. No one portion has
sought to hold another backward,
but all abreast and equal have
marched in solid phalanx along the
path of general progress. The Phil
adelphia Record. speaking of the
South says:
“The surprise which greeted the
recuperation in the South that was
shown by the census of 1880 is like
ly to be again elicited in 1890. There
has been a strong movement of peop
le from the Northern states south
ward; which will more than make up
for the greater accession of immig
rants in the North. Another thing
that must he taken into consideration
is the great number of births, bo-h
white and bl.-.ek, in the South. The
command to multiply and repleni th
the cartli is literary fulfilled south
of Mason and Dixon’s line. The sol
id South, i nothing shall he done in
the next four years to impair its solid
ity, will again seriously threaten
republic:'n supremacy. What repub
lican streuglh may be gained by the
admission of new states will no doubt
be neutralized by the larger represen
tation of Akansas, Alabama, Georgia,
Florida and Texas.
Georgia will show a population of
nearlly li,1)00,000 when the census
takers go round next time. Every
thing in this state conduces to the
growth of population by natural in
crease and the speaking knowledge
of Georgia’s charms as a place of
residence brings every year a host of
people seeking homes under happy
skies.”
The resignation of lliddleberger
would cause a tie between the lie-
publicans and Democrats in the Sen
ate. The llepublican8 will submit to
a great deal before they will consent
to the expulsion of the mad Vir
ginian.

WILL IT BE BLAINE?
In spite of our hopes to the
trary it seems that Mr. Blaine
yet bo called to the cabinet.
Both he and his friends in a quiet
manner, are actively at work in his
behalf. He seems to he the choice of
the leading republicans in Washing
ton, and their united efforts will be
devoted to the furtherance of his
claims. The prospect of Mr. Blaine
in the cabinet is a gloomy thought
for the South. In the hope, confirmed
by the reports that the health of Mr.
Blaine was failing and with his loss
of vigor was ebbing all interest in
political affairs, we felt as comforta
ble as the circumstances would allow,
but later developments have aroused
the old fears, and destroyed the last
ray of hope that brightened the
gloom of defeat. It seems that Mr.
Blaine is in better health than ever.
Gov. Dingley, of Maine, interviewed
by a Washinton reporter says of him.
“He is as vigorous and active as any
man in public life. He has no thought
of retiring from the field of politics.
There is too much vigor in him. I
have never seen him in better health
than at present. I sec no reason
why bo should not be given a cabinet
position; and my opinion is that Gen.
Harrison will offer him the portfolio
of State?*
There is still a little encourage
ment left. Gen. Harrison has as
sured the public that os yet ho lias
gireu no thought to his cabinet.
When the appointment is made then
it will be time to grieve. In the
meantime let us make the best of our
surroundings, an i live as becomes us,
in the hope that all will end. well.
where a glowing furnace greets them ;
they will little heed the howling of
the wind, that bears the message of
death to many a cheerless hovel. But
let us not forget, amid the comforts
that surround us, that hundreds are
suffering with cold and hunger. As
we sit around the cheerful fire, or
gather about the freighted table
which wealth has filled with plenty,
let us remember how many hearts are
cheerless, and how many homes are
sick with hunger. As we spend our
money in the coming weeks for fool
ish toys, for the children blessed with
happy homes, let us remember the
poor boys.and girls, to whom the
Christmas season brings little merri
ment or joy, because it brings tbe
cruel storms wbich they are ill pre ■
pared to meet.
“It is more blessed to give than to
receive,” and with this assurance of
the scripture, let us endeavor to les
sen the rigors of the comiug winter in
the poor and cheerless homes about
us. In the smiling faces, and the
hearts' that speak a world of thanks,
in the unwritten language of the
soul—in the homes made happy and
the fire-side brightened by our
bounty, we will find our true and full
reward.
The Colonel has bis eye on some re
spectable office under the new admin
istration, and his object in visiting
the political metropolis, is to consult
with the leading exponents of his
faith in regard to the furtherance of
his plans. The Colonel is an able
man, a true and conscientious repub
lican. We would be glad to see him
honored with the office he seeks.
A WORD TO OUR CONGRESSMEN.
With the change of administration
and the consequent arrogance of the
republican party, the patience of
southern democrats in Congress will
be severely tried. They will he cn
flamed by the occasional outrages
which the negro is certain to cofhmit
in the South, and be irritated by the
taunts of the opposition in Congress,
but our members should make a firm
re>olve to control their naturally
fiery temperaments, and through pa
tience and tact # work out the destiny
of their section as best they can. It
is true they will have much to endure
no doubt, but their duty to their con
stituents demands that they exercise
self jeontrol,and make the most possible
out of an unfortunate predicament.
A fire-eating Southern Congress
man can do more harm to his section
than all of our members can do
good. Let these hot heads and en-
fiamed tongues be sent to tbe rear,
and let the democratic side of the
house he controlled by the cool brain
and tried statesmanship of more
thoughtful men
Wo have confidence in President
elect Harrison, and if our conserva
tive members exercise discretion and
present the situation of our section in
its true light,we believe the South lias
little to lose in his election to the
pre idency.
We are, in a groat measure, at the
mercy of the republicans, and all that
we can hope for mu.-t be obtained
through policy and tact and not by
force or threats.
REMEMBER THE POOR.
A foretaste of the coming winter
felt in the icy breath of the morning
breeze, warns ns to prepare for the
rapidly approaching season. Decem
ber is fast giving back the sunshine
which she borrowed from May, and
in a few more days, the hill-sides will
wear their snow-white mantle, and
the laughing streams, saddened by
the absence of the sun, will hush their
mr tty ripples. In a’ few more days
the king of winter will hold dominion
tbe landscape. EjAEjb
STICK TO THE FARM
Many a Georgia boy is now
making his arrangements to leave the
farm and cast his lot in the city. In
view of the poor crops of last season
there is some apology for this, but
the step should not be taken except
after careful thought.
Considering the interests of our
commonwealth, it is most unfortunate
that so much of the brains and brawn
of our rural districts are seeking the
cities. The state needs farmers, pro
ducers. Our cities are already over
crowded and they* offer but little in
ducement to a young man. A boy
raised in the country is dazzled by
the wealth and attractions of the city
but he must realize that there is a
limit to the demand for wage earners
in our cities. He knows perhaps
some bright boy who left the farm
and acquired wealth and influence in
the city, but he fails to recall the
fact that where one has succeeded ten
have failed and gone to ruin or else
are filling menial places. On the farm
there is room for all and success and
fortune to those who are iudustrious
and thrifty. Let boys then think
well before leaving the, old home
stead,
THE POPULAR VOTE.
As has been determined the follow
ing is tbe popular vote in the presides
tial race.
Congressman Cox is perhaps the
happiest man in Washington. .He
received the other day from one of
bis admirers iu Dakota, a communi
cation stating that if North Dakota
was admitted into the Union as a
separate state, its name would be
changed to “Sunset,” and Coxville
would be its capital. It further
stated that if he should emigrate
West the people of the new state
would send him to the Senate.
Thk New York Tribune of Sunday
has an interview with “Rev” E. T.
Fleming, who ran against Capt. Carl
ton for Congress. Fleming is de
scribed as a typical Southern man.
The Tribune thinks he is a white
man of influence and standing. Flem
ing is after some fat position, and is
anxious to tell his troubles to a radi
cal newspaper.
Mr Pat C'albonn, who by the way
sustains well the great name he bears,
in his recent effort before the railroad
committee of the legislature laid down
the strange theory, that to derive tbe
best fruits of competition you must
begin by crushing out competition.
Strange theory that! But then Mr.
Calhoun is a railroad man.
The term of the Georgia legislature
should be definitely fixed by law or
else the members should be paid a
stipulated sum, not a per diem, with
the privilege of sitting as long as they
see fit. It seems as if the legislature
is a bigger thing tlian the State of
Georgia.
If only tbe whites had voted in
the last presidential election, the
Democratic majority would have
heen something in the neighborhood
of 1,000,000. And yet the republi
can party represents the intelligence
of the country?
We might have the G. C. & N.
as well as a line to Knoxville if
we could relieve ourselves • of the de
vouring railroad monopoly which is
crushing out opposition and putting
an everlasting stop to all railroad
building.
How greatly the Georgia railroad
hill if improved, and it will last for
generations. Let the work go on, and
in a few years all of our streets will
be in fine condition. A city without
paved streets is way behind this pro
gressive age.
Senator Riddleberger says if they
pay him np ’til the end of his term he
will resign his Beat the first of Janu
ary, otherwise he will retain it to get
satisfaction out of Ingalls.
The State of Georgia sould have a
bureau of immigration. Let some of
our legislators dream over this and
prepare a bill by the summer session.
Judge Kelley, of St. Paul, has
made war on the newspaper reporters.
Judge Kelley will wish he' had
never done so.
The newspapers have at last got
Harrison’s cabinet made up. It is
hard to down a newspaper, especially
in cabinet making.
Ah effort is being made to unite
the northern-and southern branches
of the Presbyterian church.
The secret of long life is modera
tion in all things.

TWO LAKGE ENTERPRISES
The Georgia Chemical .Works and the
Pu’apsco Guano Company.
Few articles of commerce command
so universal attention or are of such
general use and interest to the great body
of our people, as guano. It is a stapla of
trade and every farmer is interested in
where and what to bay. The season is
approaching when our merchants and
planters will be making arrangements for
their guano for the coming year.
At the Augusta exposition, where the
products and resources of our section as
well as the business establishments ot
our country were displayed, nothing at
tracted more general attention than the
elaborate exhibit, of the Georgia Chemi
cal Works and the Putapsco Guano com
pany, mads by Col. J. Rice Smith, gen
eral manager of both companies, with
offices in Augusta.
His exhibit covered a space 40x15 feet
and was the headquarters for the farm
ers visiting th3 exposition. 7 he space
was covered by canopies of red asd yel
low cambric, supported on pillars,
twelve feet high, wrapped in muslin
flagging, tastily decorated with rolls of
cotton and bunches of tobacco.
On largo pyramidal stands were the
raw ingredients, such as crude bane,
ground bone, German kainit, ground fish
scraps, ground blood, dissolved bone,
cotton seed meal, ground tankage, sul
phate of ammonia, muriate of potash,
eto, which after skilful manipulation
yield the guano of trade.
“But,” says Col. Smith, “I lay but
little stress on my exhibit. I made it
to help out the exposition. It is the
practical test that l rely on to sell my
goods. I know that when the Patapsco
or the guano we make here at the Geor
gia Chemical Works is put under cot
ton, corn, grain, tobacco, or ar.y other
crop it increases the yield as much, if
not more, than any other guano in the
market. We sell thousands of tons every
year in your section and the unanimous
testimony of all the larmers in North
east Georgia places our goads at the top
of the market.” Col. Smith is one of the
cleverest men in business and with the
superior qnality of his goods it is no sur
prise that he sells as much as he can
make every season.

The Christmas tree at the academy
night before last was a success and af

enjoying the evening, and the band play
ing sweet strains at the academy, news
came that a white man was killed by a
negro down in Louisville, or negro
town, just in the suburbs. It proved
to be a young man named Sanders Pitt
man who had spent tho day around the
bar room, and had entered a negro house
where a dance was going on. He was
badly beaten on the head and cut in
the face with an axe and left on the
ground, where he was soon after found
and removed to a bed in the houso of
Marshal H. D. Jackson, where he now
lies in a critical condition. The negroes
who did tbe bloody deed have fled, but

ers.

He is not over 21 years old and has no

“OI.D HUTCH,” OF CHICAGO.
Benjamin P. Hutchinson, the Western
wheat king, has been a conspicuous
figure in Chicago,particularly within the
precincts of the Board of Trade, for
many years past; and the recent
“squeeze”which be so successfully ma
nipulated has given him rational notorie
ty under his local sobriquet of “Old
Hutch.” He is indeed a character well
worthy of the curious attention which
he attracts; and a clever pencil has given
us a number of faithful sketches,
portraying him in his habit as he
lives, wbich cannot fail to interest our
readers.'
It must be nearly half a eenture since
“Old Hutch ’ was young Hutch, work
ing on his parents’ musgre Massachusetts
farm, afterwards learning the shoe
maker's trade, and always an adept at
the manipulation and multiplication of
the “nimble sixpence”; but liis oldiasli-
ioned Yankee ways and speech have
ever clung to him' growing even more
grotesque by contrast with bis later
environment's bis prosperity has wax
ed apsce. He has a fine residence on
Michigan avenue, below Twenty-third
Street, but prefers to spend won of his
time at the Century Club. The Century
Club is not as pretentious as sojto of the
other organizations of Chicago, but it is
one of the richest. It includes, in its
membership of 250, fully a dozen mil
lionaires. The master-spirit of the club
is “Old Hutch,” but on i;s rolls are the
names of men l.no'n i i every com
mercial centre in U.o country.
‘•Old Hutch’’ iu president, manager,
steward, commissary-genen.1 ami chief
cook. Every morning,between four and
six o’clock, he crawls out of bed, dress
es, and makes a survey of the promises,
l’heb he hangs a basket on his arm, if
the notion strikes him, and sallies forth
into South Water Street Buying what
he wants cheaper than any one else pos-
tdbly could, he return 4 to the club arid
goes to the kitchen. With a match he
lights the gas-range, and in a few
minutes prepares his frugal breakfast
with his own hands. He seems to enjoy
cooking for himself, but be never gives
ar.y one else an opportunity for tesiihg
his skill. He is exceedingly proud of his
record as commissary general. When
meals were served in the club, he laid in
the supplies with the most cautious
economy, and was careful to guard ag
ainst any wasteful extravagance in the
culinary department. As a consequence,
the dining-rooin was not very extensive
ly patronized, and even “Old Hutch”
himself occasionally breaks a quarter at
one of the lunch-counters in the neigh
borhood. In the early part of the cur
rent month, the queer old millionaire
speculator discovered that he bad been
himself “queezed” by a dishonest clerk,
to the extent of several thousand dollars;
and it is said that his petty economies
have since been screwed down to a
closer margin than ever.

writer of the “Eneycioprrdia Britan-

Arnold, it will bo remembered, became
a Roman Catholic, and for n wliilo was
a professor in tho University of Dub

Birmingham. But he finally settled
down to literary life in Oxford. In

Martyrs to Headache
Sock relief in vain, until they begin to
use Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Then they re
gret tho years of suffering they might
have escaped had they tried this remedy
earlier. Tho trouble was constitutional
not local; and, until Ayer’s Sarsapa
rilla did Us effective work as an
Alterative aud Blood Purifier, they were
compelled to suffer.
The wife of Samuel Page, 21 Austin
fit., Lowell, Mass., was, for a long time,
subject to severe headaches, the result
of stomach and liver disorders. A per
fect cure has been effected by Ayer’a
Sarsaparilla.
Frank Roberts, 727 "Washington st.,
Boston, says Hint ho formerly bad ter
rible headaches, and until he took
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, never found any
medicine that would give
Permanent Relief.'
“ Every Spring, for years,” writes
Lizzie w. DoVeau, 2153 Fifteenth st.,
Brooklyn, N, Y , “ I have had intoler
able headaches. I commenced the use
of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla last March, and
liitvo uqt had a headache since that
lime.”
“I suffered from headache, indiges
tion, and debility, and was hardly able
to drag myself about the house,” writes
Mrs. JL M. I jew is, of A st., Lowell,
Mass. “ Ayer’s Sarsaparilla has worked
a marvelous change in my case. .1 now
feel strong and well os ever.”
Jonas Garn.un, Esq., of Lyklns, Pa„
writes: “For years I have suffored
dreadfully, every Spring, from headache,
caused by impurity of the blood and
bilousuess. It seemed for days and
weeks that my head would split open.
Nothing relieved me till I took Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla. This medicine ha3 cured
me completely.”
When Mrs. Genevra Belanger, of 24
Bridge st., Springfield, Mass., began to
use Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, she had suffered
for some years from a serious affection
of the kidneys. Every Spring, also, she
was afflicted with headache, loss of
appetite, and indigestion. A friend per
suaded her to use Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
winch benefited her wonderfully. Het
health is now perfect. Martyrs to head
ache should try
