GEORGIA NEWS ITEMS
Interesting Happenings In the
State Gathered at Random.
Truitt’* Cotton Estimate.
Mr. George W. Truitt, of Tronp
county, who antagonized the mill esti
mate last year by one which only miss
ed the truth by a few thousand bales,
is again in the field.
“I figure out," said he, “that the
crop now coming into market will not
be over 9,250,000 bales. This is the
maximum. There are conditions ahead
of us which may pull even this esti
mate down.
“For 1901-2 we will again have a
short crop. The exodus of negro labor
to engage in other callings, the indif
ference which always seizes upon them
when there is plenty in the land, will
keep the crop down. The desire of
land owners to increase their acreage
will be more than offset by the failure
of the negroes to work.
* * *
Augusta Mills Shut Dawn.
The King and Sibley Mills, Augus
ta’s two largest cotton factories, have
been temporarily shut down. They
will devote two weeks to making some
repairs and hope that in this time the
price of cotton goods may have changed
so as to have enabled them to run
again without serious loss.
* * *
Fine Stock Exhibit Promised.
One feature of the Southern Inter
state fair, to be held in Atlanta, that
ha3 received little attention during the
past few weeks aud one that bids fair
to excel in interest and comprehen
siveness similar features at former
fairs will be the stock exhibit. Already
applications have been received from
prominent breeders and stock raisers
all over the country for every inch of
stall room on the grounds. If neces
sary more stalls w ill be built to accom
modate stockmen who wish to exhibit
their cattle.
* * *
Gcoinln’* “Noble Example.”
A letter just received from Mr. L.
T. Chamberlin, chairman of the execu
tive committee of one hundred in New
York, says: “The noble example of
Georgia is becoming an inspiration to
our work in other parts of the country.
We are now seeking to organize more
than one northern state essentially on
the same plan.”
A further extract says: “The pros
pect of the coming harvest is far from
satisfactory. The wasted, emaciated
peasant farmers, their oxen being
dead, have not been able to properly
prepare their lands. In many in
stances they have not been able to
procure the proper seed iu proper
quantities. This condition necessitates
crops far below the average. And now
it appears that drought may return.
There can be no doubt that the situa
tion after next November will be in
tensely distressful."
* * +
Factions Must Agree.
Chairman F. G. dußignon, of the
Democratic state executive committee,
says that Chatham county comes with
in the recent provisions of the state
committee with regard to organization.
Chatham has been unable to get anew
executive committee so far, owing to
the disagreement between the local
factions, which has been quite bitter.
Mr. dußignon informs the polticians
of both factions that they must come
to some agreement within the next few
days, aud if they fail to do so, he will
order an election held for the purpose
of selecting an executive committee.
So far the local factions have been un
able tq come anywhere near an agree
ment.

Ainericus Msy Build Plant.
Unless the Yirginia-Carolina Chem
ical company decides to operate its
fertilizer plant in Americus a local
company stands ready to build one.
The splendid plant which was built
and operated by a home company was
sold to the great guano trust. A year
ago one of the buildings was burned
aud since that time the plant has been
closed down and much of the machine
ry removed to Macon.

To Care For Troup’s Grave.
Some days ago the Young Men’s
Business League of Dublin inaugurat
ed a movemeut to exhume the remains
ai Governor George M. Troup, which
are buried just over the line of
Laurens iu Montgomery county, and
reinter them in Dublin.
To do this the consent of his near
jst relatives was necessary and all but
one has given assent to the proposi
tion. It is the intention of the busi
ness league to invite all of the Georgia
congressmen, senators, statehouse of
ficials aud other prominent citizens to
be present at the reinterment.
The grave of Governor Troup has
been long neglected and the Young
Men’s Business League of Dublin in
tends that hereafter it shall be proper
ly looked after.
