Editor:— I have heard a good deal of discussion of late about buildiug a cotton factory. Noise is a good thing sometimes, but it don’t buy brick and mortar. Do our people really want a factory? Is it not a necessity? Have we not grown up uuder a wrong idea of depending entirely upon the oue staple, cotton, too long? Is this not the time to look around us and aijust ourselves to the new condition of things that will of necessity be forced upou us? Is not the heretofore live, progressive Jaeksou approaching a crisis, upon the decision of which depends very largely her future? Commercially we have al ready gone neyoud our territory and our town is really drawiug trade and cotton from our less enterprising neighbors. This caunot last always. The result is our merchants have increased and buyers decreased aud the trade will be divided, aud with decreased consumption by the people it will be a question of the “sur vival of the fittest.” Failures and re in >vals will result; disintegration take place, and a general shaking up and d>wu will well nigh take the courage out of us all. Now this is the crisis, Mr, Editor, we are coming to. We need more people. Would it not be wise for our merchants to subscribe liberally so as to sustain their present busiuess, take hold of this with energy aud zeal and push it to success. . We have many progressive farmers who realize they cauuot make money raising cotton. Let’s invite them to take stock, and manufacture the staple here at home. A $50,000 cotton factory will add from 300 to 500 people to our town and county, and would naturally oreate a better demaud for home raised products—potatoes, chickens, eggs, but tei, etc. Mr. Editor, the subject looms up big, the possibilites are so great that I wish I had au eye opener so chat the people might see, act and invest, for I really believe it is a forced necessity upon us, that will pay well and prove a first-class investment. Citizens of Jackson and Butts county wake up, take new courage and let’s put vim aud push in this enterprise! That will for all time lift us out on the plain road to prosperity and future greatness commercially speaking. Progress. Jim Thornton has seme of the best turnouts in his livery stable ever shown in Jackson. Call on him when you want a nice team of horses. The Tenable Insurance bill should pass. As it is, we are in the hands of a p vwerful agency called the Southeastern Tariff Association, and only recently they nearly doubled the rates in our town. Will not Bro. Dempsey help push this bill? Our people need all the help towards economizing that judicious leg islation can possibly give them, and if Bi other Dempsey will lend his energies in this direction the Argus will, in aeeord with the people, be under many obligations to him.

EAST JACKSON. Well brother Editors: Old East Jackson is all right. Xmas is coming and we are all feeling good, yes I feel it clear through in my bones. One of my neighbors went l>y yesterday shooting fire crackers and I told him he should wait until Xmas. He said he could not, he felt so good. We should all stay fcober and honor the 25th day of December, as it is the grandest day of the world’s knowledge, yes, 1,894 years ago this December our dear Savior was born. We are glad to know that iur. J. T. Goodman’s little girl is well again. Mr. Luther Plunkett came home on a short visit last week. Luther is making fine progress in book-k ‘eping.

Levi Ball has moved into our settlement; we welcome him as our citizen, We will go around and give him a round of music to night. After Mr. Andy Plunket has let his parrot think for a month, he asked it what it was thinking about, it said: “Mr. Plunket, I think you are left!” Mr. O. A. Moore, the representative of Heard county, spent a day with us last week. There is a man who rides a red painted wheel through East Jackson every Sun day morning. He don’t say much but I think he is giving Mr. Henry Gilmore a dare, like we did when we played base. Miss Lizzie Hooteu, of Henry county, is visiting her sister this week. Miss Lizzie will leave for La Grange Jan. Ist, to attend college. Mr. Lawrence Crawford speaks of making a dive into Florida soon. Law rence says he can catch as many gophers as anybody. Well, Bro.
