SOME FACTS FOR THE SANE The earnings of the Georgia, Southern and Florida railway since July 1, of last year have been twelve thousand three hun dred dollars in excess of the cor responding period of the year before. The year before it will be re called, was a record-breaker in the history of railroad earnings and in general prosperity. To have exceeded that record is a strong indication that the state of Georgia is not going to the bow-wows. At a time when political agi tators, in order to serve their own selfish end, even at the ex pense of the best interests of the state, are attempting to convey the impression that we are in the low grounds of calamity, it is just as well to keep facts like these before the intelligent peo ple of Georgia.—Fitzgerald En terprise.
