THURSDAY, MARCH 4, 1886. Valedictory. tV jh this issue of The Courant its editorial management changes hands. The editress has felt the fatigue—the ride of three miles to and from the oflicc —very sensibly since her tedious illness last fall. % Her physician and family advise a rest. Our business relations have been most agreeable—could not be surpassed—and the editorial work has been a pleasure, but the fatigue and exposure to the weath er has taxed one of the staff too heavily to risk her health any longer. This much is due to the dear readers who stepped so promptly to our support when The Cour ant began its mission, twelve months ago. In bidding good-bye, we part with our reading friends with unfeigned regret. We return thanks to the gallant editors of Georgia newspapers whose chivalry has equaled their courtesy. The State will always hold her supremacj r in the South with such journalistic urbanity and good will. The recollection of this pleasant companionship will always re main with us in retirement. To our county friends we return pro found thanks for many and repeated ex pressions of confidence aud support, and reiterate our belief that Georgia holds no better county or better people from Ra bun Gap to Tybee Light than we find in Old Bartow. We bespeak continued confidence and support for our successors, who are alto gether deserving of it, and trusty their prosperity may equal their worthy claims on public attention. Dr. and Mrs. W. 11. Felton. SALUTATORY. The Courant parts with Dr. and Mrs. Felton with regret, for it will never own more zealous or capable friends. The paper worked up a large and growing cir culation under their fostering care, and in taking their places we feel we should give credit where credit is due. Our re lations have been most agreeable and harmonious in every particular, and we only yield to the necessity which has been explained above. The Courant will devote itself to the business interests of Bartow county espe . dally. We intend to make it a medium of business and social communication be tween our business men and general citi zenship. It will be Democratic in poli tics, and it will also be the zealous friend of .every good man who lives in the county, and who desires the county’s prosperity. We open our columns to all citizens who may wish to give informa tion to our readers on all matters per taining to the welfare and progress of our community. We have no friends to boom or foes to punish. As nearly as possible we intend to hold an even bal ance, and especially desire all our people to feel that they have a zealous friend and advocate in the paper, which has no policy or politics that ostracises and drags down, but which always reaches upward and onward. We intend to make The Courart a popular people’s paper in every sense of the word, and feel satisfied that our effort will be sustained. The patent outside feature will at once be discarded and we will furnish our readers a genuine coun ty paper—full of local and interesting news. • We offer especial inducements to ad vertisers and business men, here and elsewhere. We promise good work, in good time and good order, as neatly and reasonable in all particulars as it can be done anywhere inside or outside the county. We mean business —try us. Courant Publishing Company. A Rest Needed. Young ladies often tease young men for being absent-minded. But they have high example for it, as this instance shows: “Secretary Lamai recently went to call on the wife of Representative Blount and the ladies of her family at their hotel. He sent up his card but when they came down to the reception room he was not there. Later in the evening his card came up again, and he explained to the ladles that he had wandered away, having completely forgotten what he came to the hotel for and that he had sent in his card. Such absent-minded politician needs retirement and ought to have rest in pri vate life. Some years ago, a friend of his said, he forgot to meot his wife at the Washington depot when she came on to the capitol to meet him, and forgot also to go to dinner the same day, so she was in the city from a little af'er daylight un til dark without seeing im, after an ab sence of several months. This sort of forgetfulness needs rest most imper atively. Senator Jones, of Florida, has not been in his seat this session, loitering in De troit after a rich young girl, who it is re ported left the city to escape his matrimo nial importunity. lie needs rest also. Whenever men get thus incapacitated for public business they should not only be allowed to rest, but forced to take it. Col. Pete Laweee, of Gainesville, who lost his all in a late lire, has em barked in the insurance business in At lanta. Probably no man can dissertate upon the advisability of insurance with more feeling and perfection than your Uncle Pete Lawshe. We wish the Colo nel much success in his new business, but we will miss him from the rank and file. Curry’s Cough Cure is a scientific com bination of Tar and Wild Cherry. It is pleasant to take and a sure cure. Only 25 cents a bottle. Try it. An Impudent Attack. “Secretary Whitney’s wife,” ways the Spring fiend Union, “leads him a tiresome life. Sne is a leader of Washington society. There is no discharge in that war for a cabinet officer whose wife is ‘in the swim.’ ” The Springfield Union has considerable cheek to defend Mr. Whitney by attack ing his wife in this manner. Secretary Whitney is rich —married rich —loves dis play and intends to astonish Washington by his magnificence, and until he com plains ot his wife’s entertainments to the Springfield Union, we think Mrs. Whit ney’s conduct might be dealt with in some other way. It is reported that Mrs. Whitney’s brother, Oliver Payne, the head of the Great Standard Oil* Monopoly, placed $500,000 in bank to her credit, saying, “It is not to keep but to spend in enter taining your friends.” It is also said she is getting through with $3,500 weekly. At that pace will make a hole in the half million right quickly. We think it a foolish way to spend money, and a “wilful waste will make a woeful want,” but the Standard Oil people make it by depressing all other oil corporation*? and we think it is well to scatter it agaiif, that poorer people may get in sight of a heap of money and handle a little once in a while. If Mrs. Whitney uses her brother’s money as her brother directed, it.£g a lit tle “tough” to be held up to publiWlcorn by the Union. It looks to us at this dis tance as if the husband was “in the swim,” for, man like, he gets all the credit of his wife’s glory, and likewise all the pity for her errors. Mrs. Whitney has eclipsed everything at the National Capitol in splendid enter tainments, and the New York papers say her husband is looking up for the Presidency, the wife lending her time, her money and her bodily thought to his success. She may find the game not worth the candle, and we think it will end that way; but she leads a tiresome life, and there will be no discharge in that war while her husband is in public life. BEWAIIE OF COTTON SHARKS. A friend has handed us the following and requested its publication in The Courant. There is so much good hard sense in the article that we hope all our readers will give it attention, and so or der their crops this year as to profit by the advice: Memphis, Tenn., February 26. —The inter-state agricultural convention, which has been in session at Jackson, Tenn., since Wednesday, adjourned this even ing. The following resolutions were adopted with amendments to include breadstuff? and hog products, as well as cotton: The manipulation by specula tors of the cotton crop of 1885-86, which so depressed prices that they have fallen below the actual cost of production for ces upon the planters of the South the necessity of relieving themselves, as far as in their power lie, from the influence of so ruinous a system as that which now controls the chief exportable pro ducts of the country, and with this end in view the representatives ot the agri cultural interests of Tennessee, in con vention assembled, call upon our brother planters of all the Southern States to pro tect themselves by united action. Em boldened by past successes, the specula has already fixed the standard prices for the cotton crop of ISB6-87. This he has done before the seed has been put in the ground, or even a plough have been start ed. Cotton futures for the months of October, November and December, 1886, and January, 18S7, are to-day quoted in New York at from 8-90 to 8-75, 75 ac cording to months. This means not ex ceeding 8% cents for middling cotton in New York, or cents at the principal cotton shipping points of the South, in eluding such cities as New Orleans, Charleston, Savannah, Augusta, Mobile, Galveston and Memphis. Middling cot ton at these cities selling for %% cents means not more than 7% to the planter, who must pay freight, insurance and regular commission charges, which generally average from %to 1 cent per pound. Now, in view of these condi tions, so ruinous of our interests, we ap peal to the intelligence of the cotton grower and* ask him can he pay the ex penses of farming and make even a bare living by selling cotton at 7 % cents per pound. The answer is already given in the negative. The next question follow ing upon this is what is the remedy ? we answer diversified crops. Plant one third less cotton and more grain and grasses. Raise hogs and hominy. Let cotton be a surplus crop. Instead of producing six and a half million bales, make only four and a half million bales. By this means we may realize the long price of our labor and at the same time live independently of the sharks, who profit by our losses. In addition to this, the legislature of each southern state should be petitioned to make dealings for future delivery, unless cotton is ac tually on hand to sell, and actually deliv ered to contracting purchaser, a felony punishable by fine and imprisonment, not less than SI,OOO and two years in the penitentiary. The time is now propri tious for united action, and wo appeal to the press of the south to aid us in our ef forts, by giving every publicity to this protest and appeal, which we feel can not but result beneficially to the planter if promptly acted upon and lived up to honestly. NEVER HEARD OF DEATH. We are told that in the mountain fast nesses of North Georgia, where the loco motive whistle has never been heard, where the “worm of the still never di eth,” and the missionary has not preach ed, that there are men and children who cannot read, never heard of Jesus Christ, his mission or death, know nothing of Sunday Schools," or the proper observ ance of the Sabbath or what Christ mas means. It is related that when a man’s thirteen year old daughter died up there not long ago, the father bent over the corpse, with weeping eyes and lacerated heart and exclaimed: “She did not know that there was such a thing as death.” She had never been taught she had to die, knew nothing of the shadowy land of eternity, heaven or hell, yet thousands of dollars are annually collect ed from the people and sent to Christian ize the “heathern Chinee’, while in the mountain seclusions, the rough and illit erate inhabitants, scratch the ground, shoot the deer, barb the trout, make and drink their whisky, and are oblivious of the gopel of Jesus Christ. “Ignorance is bliss, but there is a misdirection of fundsand a lack of discernment in this matter quite apparent. The Journal la ments such a state of affairs. With the penetration of the M. & N. Ga. R. R. through that section and influx of popu lation, contact and intelligence will dissi pate this ignorance, as the rising sun scatters the mist of the morning. Pro gressive Christianity must take Georgia whether China is reclaimed or not. Agnes, the little daughter of J Walter Reece, of Rome, was painfully barned last Thursday evening. The children were cooking syrup candy, and Agnes in some way turned over the vessel contain ing it, throwing some of the scalding sor ghum over her face and hands. Sam Ennis, brother of the sheriff of Baldwin county, shot and killed Deputy Marshal C. N. Ilaygood, at Milledge ville. The quarrel grew out of the pro hibition campaign. Ennis is anti-prohi bitionists, Ilaygood was a prohibitionist. STOP THE CRACKS. Window Glass of all sizes at bottom prices at Curry’s Drug Store.
