GEORGIA NEWS ITEMS
Brief Summary of Interesting
Happenings Culled at Random.
Frrmr are Arniised.
President Jordan, of the Georgia
Cotton Growers’ Protective Associa
tion, in an interview regarding the
call which he is now issuing for a gen
eral rally of all the farmers in the state
at their county seats on the first Tues
day in September, said:
“I have deemed it best to issue a
call asking the farmers and business
men generally of the state to come to
gether at their various county seats on
the first Tuesday in September for tho
purpose of completing sub-organiza
tions of our association in the different
counties. A large number of counties
have already organized and many more
have named dates to come together in
the near future.
“I have been steadily on the road
for the past sixty days, visiting coun
ties in the interest of our movement,
and am pleased to state that every
county visited has perfected an organi
zation. The time is now too short for
me to complete a personal canvass of
the state, hence the call issued. My
time should also be devoted to the
official work of our association in
securing statistical information and
placing the result of my investiga
tions in the hands of our members. I
shall also ask every paper in the south
to actively agitate the question of re
form in marketing the present crop,
and am satisfied we will receive
active co-operation throughout the cot
ton belt.
“The farmers have it absolutely in
their power to control the sitnation the
present season, and every effort should
bo made to aid them in the struggle
for better and higher prices.
“More than 815,000,000 can be saved
the Georgia farmers if they receive 10
cents per ponnd for their cotton which
will be lost if they rush the crop on
the market and sacrifice it at 7 cents.
“The members of the Georgia State
Agricultural society, in convention at
Dublin, unanimously endorsed the
effort of onr association in behalf of
the cotton producers, and agreed to
give their active co-operation to the
movement in making the present un
dertaking a success this season.
“The Georgia bankers had already
guaranteed their willingness and abili
ty to aid the members of the associa
tion as to advancing on cotton in stor
age, which would enable the produc
ers to market the crop slowly.
“The cotton mills of the south are
with ns, and all lines of business,
trades and professions are willing to
lend a helping hand towards securing
for the farmers a higher price for their
staple.
“If the crop is marketed slowly, we
may confidently look for 10-cent cotton j
by the first of October, and to that j
end we must all combine our efforts |
and take a determined stand against
the crop to lie sacratieed at 7 cents per j
pound, which the speculators are in- j
dustriously trying to force upon our j
people. NVith concert of action and |
geueTal organization, I have no fear of I
handling the present crop for high
prices iu view of the fact that the
world is short of raw cotton, and the
present growing crop will not yield an
amount sufficient for consumptive de
mand during the next twelve mouths.”

Mining fin|mny In TrouHk*.
Mr. T. D. Meador, of Atlanta, pres
ident of the Southern Mining com
pany, has been appointed by Judge
John 8. Candler temporary receiver
for the company.
A receiver was asked for ihat the
property might be judiciously handled.
It was set out that the immediate cause
of the suit was an effort by some of
the holders of iuterest coupons on the
second mortgage bonds to get a pref
erence over other bondholders under
suits recently brought iu a justice of
the peace court.
The Southern Mining company was
formed by the purchase of the stocks
and bonds of the several companies
which went to make up the Georgia
Mining, Manufacturing and Invest
ment company, and its assets consist
almost exclusively of those stocks and
bonds.
* • *
“Nmllßtlon” Company Chartered.
The Savannah Dock Ferry Company,
a corporation claiming to be a-nnv'fga
tion company, ha? been chartered by
Secretary of State Phil Cook. The
company has a capital stock of $25,000
and has its principal office in Savan
nah, where all tho incorporators re
side.

Supreme Court Takes a Rest.
The supreme court of the state, after
completing the longest term iu its his
tory, adjourned to meet again on Oc
tober Ist, when the October term
dockets will be taken up for oral argu-
I ment.
The last of the decisions on which
j the judges have been workiug through
the snrnmer were handed down a day
or two ago. In all 961 cases have
been considered at the March term,
1 and had the court not worked iu two
j divisions for a majority of the time,

Peach Season Closing:.
The peach season in Georgia is
drawing to a close. The Central rail
road has handled fifty per cent more,
perhaps, than all the other railroads
combined. Its total number of cars
was 1,378. Fort Valley shipped the
largest number, 579. Marshallville
came second, with 367; Barnesville
91, Cnthbert 47. Griffin 44, Reynolds
30, Winchester 22 and Bolingbroke 21.
These are the most prominent of the
peach shipping stations in the state,
so far as the records show. The total
statistics, including the shipments of
the other roads, have not yet been
compiled, but it is thought they will
run the number up to 2,000 cars.
* * *
Ketralnins Order Dissolved.
The city of Atlanta and the Atlanta
Rapid Transit Company scored a vic
tory before Judge John S. Candler
when the restraining order, holding
up the condemnation proceedings
against the Atlanta Railway and Pow
er Company, was dissolved. The con
demnation will be allowed to go for
ward up to the point of the arbitrators
making their award, but payment of
money or occupancy of the tracks is
restrained until the case is decided on
its merits.
* * •
Contractor* Stand Firm.
A member of the national board of
the Carpenters’ Union, who visited
Columbus the past week to adjust the
differences between the carpenters and
the contractors, did not succeed in his
mission. He went before the mill men
and contractors and made the proposi
tion that the men return to work at
once, the mil) carpenters at ten horsrs
per day, and outside carpenters at
nine hours per day, provided that a
uniform nine-hour scale should go into
efiect on October Ist. The contractors
had previously stated that they had
intended to gi ant a nine-hour clay on.
October Ist. The contractors and mill
men refused the proposition,. They
are standing tlat-footedly for a ten
hour day, and stated plainly that they
would employ workmen o-u no other
arrangements.
*> *
Cttll* For Hiw Swwtftrt.
A touching story in connection with
the arrest and incarceration of young
James Tindall, the sixteen-year-oH
boy charged with the murder of ilia
sister and his father, is going the
rounds. It is young Tindalls letter to
his sweetheart, in which he emphati
cally denies his guilt of the offense and
implores her to come to him and give
him one word of comfort.
Powerless to (iive Aid.
Governor Candler received a letter
a day or two ago from Monroe county
asking state aid tostamp out glanders,
which has attacked stock. The Letter
was turned over to the commissioner
of agriculture, who wrote a reply
stating that the state under the law
was powerless to give aid iu such
cases, but suggested that the pec-pie of
Monroe county have their representa
tive draft a, bill allowing state aid to
be given La such cases.
Ordnance Factory Busy.
The Union Metallic Cartridge com
pany at Bridgeport, Conn., is workiug
night and day to fill orders from sev
eral governments for ammunition.
Besides the big orders for Krag am
munitio® the company has a contract
for field artillery ammunition to fill

HE DISCUSSES THE CHINESE MUDDLE
William'* Syinputhie* are With the Box
er*, Who, He Say*, are Flhtinß
For Home aii<l Country.
'Tis home where the heart is, and
the most of mine is here. The epicure
filled his stomach with choicest food
and exclaimed, “Fate cannot harm
me, I have dined today,” and so I have
filled my heart with the sweets and
comforts of home, and feel defiant of
human misery. Fate cannot harm
me, for my home is my castle where,
as Blackstone says, “the king of Eng
land dare not enter uninvited.” But
an old man did enter not long ago and
said he came to stay a few days if it
was convenient. I saw his baggage on
the iron seat in the verandah. He
said, “I travel Ireo and. lodge free
and mix with none but the best peo
ple, and so I have come to abide with
you for a few days. I hope it is con
venient.'’ “Well, it wasn’t conven
ient, for my wife was at Rome and ray
daughters away, and I had never heard
of him, and so I told him it was not
convenient. He seemed surprised and
asked me if I was a Virginian, I told
him no, I was a Georgian, and he said
Virginians seemed to be scarce in this
region and he feared tbat old Virginia
hospitality had not reached here; that
Bishop Nelson had entertained him. in
Atlanta, and he had found a welcome-
among all Virginians.
“What are you going to do with me?”'
be asked. “I am lame and can’t
walk; I was told you had a carriage
and would drive me anywhere I wished
to go.”' “No, <sir,” I have neither
carnage ©o buggy, but 3 will go down
town and- get a vehicle and take y©
anywhere you wish to go.” Then he
said Brother Bealer told him that if I
would not take him,, there was a poor
widow across town who-would, and he
would speak to her. So I took him
there anil left liim, acl will pay his
hill if Brother Bealer dident. There
are religious tramps as. well as sinner
tramps, and they are not angels un
awares.. I was down, in the wiregrass
region for nearly two weeks, and have
most pleasant memories of my new
found friends, but the last day was the
best,, for I was on my journey home
and coanted the milestones as we
speeded along. Happy faces aud Lov
ing kisses greeted me when I came,
and here I am going: to rest until the
larder gets low and my wife insists j
that I had better make another ven- j
ture; And now let the procession
proceed. Let the war go on. It is j
none-©f my begetting; it might have
stopped at Santiago, hut our yankee
brethren seem to love the nigger afar
off and have bought 8,000,000' at two
dollars and a half a head, which was
cheap enough if Spain could have de- I
live-red the goods. But theyhave cost i
ten times that now and are still in the
wonds.
XVe used to advertise omr runaways
and say “Ten dollars reward—Runa
way from the- subscriber my boy Dick,
25 years old, 5 feet 10 inches high,
black complexion aud very flat nose.
The above reward will be paid on his
delivery to me or his lodgment in the
nearest jai).” Why not try that on
Aguinald® and the other runaways?
But if they catch them. I don’t know
what they are going to do with them;
they wouldn’t let Aguinaldo set up a
barber shop in Manilla no more than
they would in Boston or Chicago.
Professor Councill, who is president
of the colored agricultural college in
Alabama, understands this. He is
the smartest and best leader of his
race, and when he speaks or writes to
the public always says the right thing.
I have great respect for him.
But this awful muddle with China,
which was precipitated by our aggres
sion upon the Philippines, seems to
have no end in sight. Rev. Dr. Hal
derman, of New York, who is said to
be a very learned man, says that he
demonstrated a year ago from scrip
tural prophecy that the present year
would find all tne nations at war, and
there would be a mighty struggle be
tween Russia and China, and that
Russia would eventually gain the su
premacy; but that for a time the hordes
from China will break in an awful ava
lanche upon the western nations and
the greed, the rapacity, the Christless,
Godless selfishness of European na
tions will ge? its reward, and there
will be a terrible balance sheet against
those Christian nations who have
poisoned China with opium and made
them look upon all Christians as
rapacious foreign devils.
He says that the Chinese are fight
ing for their homes and institutions,
and know that the Christian nations
are seeking to rob them,and that their
missionaries are backed by guns aud
swords aud Godless soldiers ready to
kill and slay. This infuriates them,
and they look upon any white man as
a devil who should be slain. He says
that while this impending and destruc
tive war is ordained ot liod and lore
told by His prophets, yet the sin of it
lies at the doors of Christian nations.
Offenses must needs come, but woe
unto those by whom they come. The
love of money is still the root of all
evil. “Trade will follow the flag” is
the shibboleth of commerce, and if the
flag has to be stained with blood it
does not matter.
These are my convictions, aud hence
I can’t work up any enthusiasm nor
any revenge. Iu 1841 England took
Houg Kong. In 1848 Eugiand made
China pay $20,000,000 because sh e
destroyed 20,000 chests of opium that
had been stored there by English mer
chants. In 1868 Russia grabbed all
the Amoor country, containing6oo,ooo
square miles, and when the United
States grabbed the Philippines the
suspicious Chinaman said, “The
Christians are coming; they want
more.” No, it is none of my war
The blood of it is on somebody’s
hands.
I see that General Gordon as goin°-
up yonder on another mission of peace
—trying to mix up the blue and the
gray and make a compromise color
that will satisfy both sides. He can’t
do it, but maybe he enjoys the fun 0 f
trying. Here and there you will find
a good-hearted, clever federal pension
er, but most of the clever ones eouie
down here and stay. The malignant
ones don’t come; they are afraid to
come. That i3 all right; let them stay
there; we had rather live with
the negroes than mean yankees.
Here is an Ohio paper, The Monroa
Chronicle, that was sent me last week
—-e marked copy—that is mad because
our people talk about building a Confed
ilerate memorial at Richmond, and says
it ought not to be allowed, and that
our loyalty to the union is all a pre
tense, and that Bill Arp, a noted reb
el and writer, shows no love for a re
stored union.
He says that such a memorial is an
insult to the nation and makes treason
honorable and loyalty odious; every
Confederate monument is a bloody
shirt, and the Republican party ought
to die, and die eternally, if it ever
allows the return of those rebel flags
which are an insult to the union dead
and to our disabled veterans. He de
nounces our rebel saugs and rebel
tributes to treason ; and there is a lot
more of such stuff, and it is in keep
ing with General Shaw’s utterances in
Atlanta about what we shall teach our
children. Old as I am, I can lick that
fellow in three minutes by the clock,
and as he has singled: aae out, it would
do me good to maul some grace into
his malignant soul.
I am afraid we wi.fi have to whip
them again. But T atn not going to
let every fool up tlfore make me mad
—I havent got time—l’d rather work
in the garden or play with the grand
children;, they keep me amused, and I
can love them without a strain. Last
night I had to play Trimbletoe with
them, and had to be the elephant and
let them, ride home on my back. How
far away that soundls—“Catches his
hens and puts them ia pens; some lays
eggs and some lays none; wire, briar,
limber lock, three geese in the flock,”
etc; One of these Tittle girls, not yet
four years old, disobeyed her mother
yesterday and was promised a whip
ping, “Mary Lou;, this is the second
time you have opened the ice chest
and turned over the cream. I told you
that if you did it again I would whip
you,. Now come- along in the other
room. ” She is a< good child, loving
and smart, but willful. “Mamma,
peas don’t vip lire hard.”
Her older sister, Carolina-, had fol
