GEORGIA N! 1 S IN BBM. items of Interest Battered at RaMoi from All Oyer tilG Slate, The Georgia factory, situated about live miles from Athens, was burned to the ground a dav or two ago. The cause of the fire is ; unknown. This contlagra- tion causes over three hundred opera- tires to be out of employment. The to- tal loss is estimated at $130,000, besides $20,009 worth of new machinery just re- ceivedr The insurance on the whole was only $ 10 , 000 . The factory will be re- built. * -t- * r Lecturer . Crawford, „ , , the colored , re- pu i man candidate for the house .rom iClntosh takes his defeat use a man, c ssys the election was one of the fair- est aud best he has ever seen in Mein- osh county. “Mv votes went in the ballot box and were counted all right and I have nothing but praise for the managers aort clerks,” says the cx-rcpre- sentative. The trouble,” says Craw- ford, is I did not ge. enough votes and of course 1 was defeated, but it was fair- ly and squarely done.” ♦ * * A Week Short. Governor Nortben will lose a week from his first term. Two years ago he was inaugurated, November 8 th. This year he will be inaugurated between October 26th., aud November 20th. This comes about through the ratification of the constitutional amendment convening the general assembly on the fourth AVed- nesday in October. The constitution of the state says that the govenor is to be inaugurated during the first week of the general assembly’s session. At the re¬ quest of Governor Co'quitt, the supreme court decided that the first week means the first seven days of the session. Gov¬ ernor Colquitt did not have his message quite ready when the legislature asked met and it was for that reason he for an opinion from the supreme court which Judge Jackson delivered. When the as¬ sembly convenes the clerk of the preced¬ ing house always calls the representa¬ tives to order, making up the roll from the list of members sent in by the secre¬ tary of state through the governor. These members are sworn in and then the clerk announces that the election of a speaker is in order. The clerk is the presiding officer until the speaker is elected. As soon as that is done the speaker takes the chair and announces that the election of a clerk is in order, A sergeant at arms, messenger and door- keeper are next elected. On the second day of the session the secretary of state delivers to the president of the senate the election returns for governor. These are opened by the president of the the speaker senate in joint session and he and of the house count the vote, and an- nounce the result. A committee is ap- pointed to wait on the governor and ask him when it will suit him to be inaugu- rated. He generally rep ies at the pleas- ure of the general assembly. Unless a special day is fixed by the assembly the inauguration takes place on the first Sit- urday after the assembly meets. If that is the programe n,i«vp«r this year finuprimr Governor Nor- then will be inaugurated for his second term, October 29th. T * * A Bright Outlook. Here is nn encouraging talk an Atlanta Constitution reporter bad a day or two aero with Mr. John A. Donavan, mana- o'er of the R. G. Dun commercial agency, The facts which he gives should certain- lv cheer the hearts of our people of trade and finance. Speaking of the financial condition of the south, Mr. Donavan said* “Advices from almost every sec- tion of the south indicate beyond ques- tion that the cotton crop of ninety-two ■ has been made with much less expendi- ture of money than that of the previous has year. To this encouraging condition also been added the presence of better prices than we expected. The gain al- ready made has been felt to the advan- tage of farmer and meichant. Experts claim that if present prices days are longer, main- j taioed from sixty to ninety be millions of dollars of what may con- , sidered unexpected wealth will be added to the south’s resources. This means larger trade in all directions, and a still : further reduction of the indebtedness of the farmer. months have been ‘‘The past twelve trying to almost every branch of business throughout the south. It has been a season of liquidation. Everyone appa- rently has been trying to get down to bedrock. The result of this as that trade has been unsatisfactory.^ hut at the same time the collection o - thc closing of accounts and the up of old scores has not been 1U will find I he re,urn ot 0 t better 0 time 3 . the mercantile capital of the country in excellent shape, on account of the drop- ping from old accounts of the assets of udcertain value.

The failures for the past six months are much smaller in number than for the last ten years, while the liabilities nre considerably less than those of any year since 1882 for the same period.
