a golden opportunity that will never
again return to brighten, or to bless.
But she is now ready to redeem her
past record; she is now beginning . to
realize the fact that her resources are
manifold, exhaustless in quantity and
of inestimable value toiler; and she
will no longer tolerate old musty ideas
that have rested beneath the accumula

determined to seize the modern
thoughts which will lead her into the
paths of prosperity. • • - *
New life is being infused into every
fibre of her being at every pulsation of
the great public heart. She is being
le-juvenated and is preparing herself to
take her place in the battle for supre

take a back position, they cannot be
tolerated in the front rank. The only

The Legislature adjourned last Tues
day sine die, and the legislators have
gone to their respective homes: They
, have had a busy session and have trans
acted a groat deal of business in spite of
the many si umbling blocks that con
fronted them.. .The Western & Atlantic
lease hill was the greatest stumbling
block before the Legislature that has
eoiue before that body for many years:
It was a complicated bill and with the
question of'betterments attached to it
was almost a' Gordia Knot. But the
Legislature succeeded in passing the
bill, minus the betterments and fixed
July 1st, 1890, the day for bids, and
and thus the matter is ended.
The Legislature has done much good
for the State, and we believe each mem
ber has conscieuciously discharged his
duty to his constituents. Wc believe
the past, session of the Legislature has
been the most profitable, as well as the
most expensive,that the State has known
for a good many years. A great num
ber of good bills;w’cre;p.assed, and each
legislator can go home with but little
to regret.
OUR PAVING LAW.
The paving law having passed, the
council having passed its ordinance,
and the street commisioner having his
authority given him, the only thing be
tween Athens and good sidewalks is
the work required in laying them.
There have already been several places
along the street laid with brick, and
several more are in the course of being
laid. Let everyone see that his side
walk is in good shape by winter. We
know that some opposition is to be
made to the enforcement of collection of
costs from tluveitizens on the ground of
unconstitutionality of the act. Laying
aside the legal question, we fail to see
why a man had rather have mud a foot
deep in front of his house - than good
brjck sidewalks. v True it costs Jiim
something, but it enhances his property
and helps his town. He is not legally
bound to benefit himself or his town,
j but the nature which God gives every
* man under the sun prompts him to do
| the former and should enforce the lut-
■ tor. As to the legality of the law, we
i are not skilled in the science of the law

and Poultry Show is to meet with this
week. Old stagers iivour city’s history

Athens, and firmly and enthusiastically
1 declare tlint it Is the fore-runner of
coming triumph.
The enthusiasm manifested by the
citizens of “Athens last night, reached
far beyond the most ardent expectations,
and reveals to our mind one thing to a
certainty, and that is that they are go
ing to throw their energy and strength
henceforth and for all time into the
up-building of a city which already is
thrusting aside with lightning rapidity
the old fogy ideas of half a century ago.
The demonstration last night, the
long line of -cars, the blazing torches,
the brilliant illuminations, .and the
hearty cheere of the assembled crowds
of visitors and citizens all go to make
up the opening step in a great and in
teresting fair. ^ ,
THE PROCESSION STARTS.
Processions generally srart later (hau
announced, but the great procession
last night .started on lime. The direc
tors have determined that everything
shall be done promptly, and Manager
Voss, of the Street Railway, was of the
same mind.
Promptly at eight o’clock the proces
sion started from the en 1 of the line, on
Thomas street, and as thc cars rolled
away the crowd cheered;lustily. Seven
cars made up the procession, and each
was Weil lighted with torches. They
were densely ^crowded,and behind them
surged the .great crowd on foot. The
front car was filled with Card’s Milita
ry Band, of Macon, and the second was
tendered the directors of the fair by the
managers of the street railway. Behind
came the citizens and visitorsfgenerally
As the parade of tlie night passed off,
the band struck up a lively time and
the procession had commenced.
ABLAZE WITH LIGHT.
Those who thought that the citizens
would not Illuminate were mistaken.
Starting at the Hale House and extend
ing in unbroken line to the home of
Capt.C. G.Talmadge, brilliant illumina
tions threw a glow of beauty upon one
of the largest and most enthusiastic
erowds ever marching through the
streets of the Classic City.
Along Hancock Avenue were many
pretty lights in the houses of Messrs.
Hale, Funkenstein, Davis, Morr.s,
Booth, Joel, McDuffie, MeKie, and Mrs
Reese’s.
Mr. Stevens Thomas’ house was
brilliantly illuminated. Mrs. Noble,
Dr. Brumby and Dr. Orr had their
homes lighted up as the procession
passed by. .
Dr.'Cdinak’s house up on the hill be
hind the court house showed off well.
At the Home School the procession
halted, and Card’s band discoursed
some of its sweetest music. Three
hearty cheers went up for this select in-
'stitution sis the cars started on. The
houses of Mr. George Hodgson, Prof.
George Dudley Thomas, and Mr. ,C. D.
Flanigen were beautifully illuminated
with candles and lanterns.
Mr. Flanigtsn was serenaded byj the
hand, and three cheers were given hi
in recognizing liis services rendered
the faii\*
At Mrs. Crawford’s the band again

In olden times, after such contests,
there were bickerings and hard feelings;
but in this such petty strifes have been
buried; and let us abhor him who
would rob this holy grave of its unholy
corpse.
Again, would I refer to olden times,
when that dread disease of leprosy pre
vailed in the east. The custom was
that those who suffered from its dread
ful ravages 1 should be avoided,and upon
their approach the multitude cried,
“Make way for the leper,” “Make way
for the leper.” And, today in our grow
ing city, wdien men come among us af-
fficted with that terrible disease of old
fogy ism, let the multitude take up tlie
cry and let it reverberate along our
hills, “Make way for the croaker,”
“Make way for the croaker.” (ap
plause.)
My only purpose in aspiring to the
offiee which it is my hope to hold
was to help develop Athens, a city that
I love; to do all that I could in my fee
ble way to infuse new life into the city ;
to baptize her witii the sparkling wa
ter of everlasting.you h; to sanctify her
with the spirit of unceasing progress,
and to pour into the lap of Athens the
precious fruit of prosperity.
But let me urge upon your minds the
fact that without your help we can do
nothing. Athens will yet be a city if
her citizens stand together, and use
their every effort for her good. She is
ready tonight to receive the prizes
awaiting hejr magical touch; she has
the grandest University this side o
Princeton and Yale, and a set of stu
dents unequaled in worth and sense;
her foundries and railroads flourishing
agriculture smiling upon her on every
side; and having within her limits the
best street railway in die South, which
is conducting tonight the grandest
parade ever held in a Southern city,
and which is to open tomorrow the
grandest Fair ever beheld beneath the
sunny skies of our Southland,
ii When we go into our different homes,
we see the familiar motto above the
door “God bless onr homes;” were it in
my power I would place along such
motto another, “God bless our town.”
And if God blesses your town, He will
surely bless your home. 1 thank you

122 E. 27th st.
Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mass.,
Geutleinfln:—A sense of gratitude*
and the desire to render a service to the
public Impel mo to make the following
statements:
My college career, at Now Haven, wa3
interrupted by a severe cold which so
enfeebled me that, for ten years, I had a
hard struggle for life. Hemorrhage
from tlie bronchial passages was the
result of almost every fresh exposure.
For years I was under treatment of the
ablest practitioners without avail. At
last I learned of : ; s t>
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
which I used (moderately and in smaH
iloses) at the first recurrence of a cold
or any chest difficulty, and from which
I invariably found relief. This was
over 25 years ago. With all sorts of
exposure, in all sorts of climates, I hava
never, to this day, had any cold nor
any affection of the throat or lungs
whicli did not yield to Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral within 24 hours.
Of course I have never allowed my
self to be without this remedy in all my
voyages and travels. Under my own
observation, it has given relief to vast
numbers of persons; while in acute cases
of pulmonary inflammation, such as
croup and diphtheria in children, life
has been preserved through its effects.
I recommend its use in light but fre
quent doses. Properly administered, in
accordance with your directions, it is
A Priceless Blessing

cases of apparently confirmed bronchitis

speakers, perfectly cured by this medi
