In Sparta baron is selling at 17
cents oiP time. Two pounds of cotton
for one pound of bacon. Hog is
king.
Tlio rehson some people have sncli
a time “making up” their minds is be
cause the little dab they posssess is
too thin to mix and stick together.
Men whose “shrewdness” in busi
ness lures them beyond the line of
honesty, may succeed for a while,
but their success is invariably a curse
to them.
The original Cleveland man in
Georgia is Lawyer John L. Under
wood, of Camilla. lie has been talk
ing and writing liiin up since he was
first elected in 1884. •
Augusta is a beautiful city and
Georgia is proud of her. If the State
fair is held there this year or any
other year, south Georgia will be on
hand or break a trace trying.
The land in Florida is unlike that
in Georgia. There it is covered with
seed-ticks and palmettos; here is is
covered with mortgages and guano.
—Alex. IV. liealcr in Atlanta Jour
nal.
There are always plenty of men to
“boost” a congressman for a higher
place. Of course there is no sellish-
uess in the matter. When a congress
man goes up higher, of course there
is no vacancy to till.
The man who starts a farm the
main object of which is to stall-feed
beeves for market, raise horses and
mules and hogs for the same purpose,
will, if tlie business is conducted
properly, find wealth in it.
German dentists are making teeth
of paper which are durable and nat
ural in looks. if some enter
prising German will now learn how
to make butter, bread and bacon out
of that cheap material life will be
worth living.
The other day a hugging bee was
given for the benefit of a church in
Alabama, and it was 15 cents a bug.
A man while blind-folded hugged
his own wife, for several minutes.
When he found out who she was he
got mad an I demanded his 15 cents
back.
Convict labor should not be brought
in competition with honest labor.
Goods made by convicts in other
states are shipped to this state and
brought in competition with home
manufactured goods that absolutely
cripple these industries. The Georgia
legislature should do something to
protect our home trade, from the
cheap labor of criminals.
The modern battle-ship has cost,
when pul in commission, about §5,-
1)00,000, and after that costs from
$1,000,000 to $”,000,000 a year for
maintenance. It will be well for our
statesmen to keep these figures in
mind when they are calculating
whether nr not it will pay to annex
the Hawaiian islands. If we take
them we must be prepared to de
fend them, and that means a very
considerable increase of the naval es
tablishment.
Such a paper as the Atlanta Con
stitution, for instance, run by a rich
company which can afford to give its
paper away and then make big money
because of its enormous receipts from
advertisements, can and does stop
coming to subscribers the week their
time expires without any 'sick what
ever being made? Hut let a poor
country editor cut a delinquent for
months and maybe years from the
list, because lie cannot afford to carry
Jlim any longer, and such' an amount
ot “cussing” and abuse as he, does
get. Will some wise head please
tell us why this thusness?—Olethorpc
Echo.
When in the course of human
events it becomes necessary for pri
vate citrons to take the law in their
own hands and dispense with judge
Cleveland's Cabinet. '
President Cleveland completed the
selection i of his cabinet on Wed
nesday of last week, and the com
plete cabinet is as follows:
Walter Q. Gresham, of Illinois,
secretary of state.
John G. Carlisle, of Kentucky, sec
retary of the treasury.
Daniel S. Lamont, of New' York,
secretary of war.
Hillary A. Herbert, of Alabama,
secretary of the navy.
Hoke Smith, of Georgia, secretary
of the interior.
J. Sterling Morton, of Nebraska,
secretary of agriculture.
Wilson II. Hissellj of New York,
postmaster-general.
Richard H. Olnoy, of Massachus
etts, attorney-general.
Hillary A. Herbert has been in
congress for several years and lias
acted as chairman of the naval com
mittee of the house. He is thoroughly
familiar with the work that has been
done toward placing the United
States navy on a proper footing, and
his knowledge of the present condi
tion of the vessels under construction
and which have been planned makes
him the most desirable man for the
head of the department.
Richard Gluey is one of the lead
ing practitioners of the Massachusetts
bar. lie has not held any political
position or been prominent in politi
cal matters, but is known to be one
ol the leading lawyers and substantial
citizens of Hoston. His selection
gives New England a representative
in the cabinet, and that of Herbert
gives the South three positions.
A header.
Since its first introduction, Electric
Hitters has gained rapidly in popular
favor, until now it is clearly in the
lead among pure medicinal tonics and
alteratives containing nothing which
permits its use ns a beverage or in
toxicant, it is recognized as the best
and purest medicine for all ailments
of stomach, liver or kidneys.—It will
cure sick headache, indigestion, con-
tipatioii, and drive malaria from the
ystein. Satisfaction guaranteed with
each bottle or the money will be re
funded. Price only 5Uc. per bottle.

Canning Factories in the South.
It is said that the numerous can
ning factories being erected through
out west Tennessee will, to a great
extent, reduce cotton production, and
build up truck farming and the fruit
industry.
Factories of from ten to twenty
thousand capacity are being started
at Milan, Jackson, .McKenzie, Sharon,
Union City and other towns. Over
one thousand acres will he set apart
for truck farming in Gibson county
alone, and similar reports come from
other counties. The demand for
canned vegetables and fruits is prac
tically unlimited, and will increase
more rapidly than the factories can
supply the goods. Now, we have in
the south the lincst Unit and truck
farming regions in the world, and,
by establishing numerous canning
factories right here within a stone’s
throw of tlie fields, our farmers will
find in a very short time that the
new industry will make them far
more prosperous than they could
hope to lie under the all cotton sys
tem.
It is a gratifying sign to see the
rapid development of this industry in
some parts of the south, and it goes
without saying that Georgia offers a
very inviting field for it. Canning
factories cost comparatively little to
start, and their product can lie. sold
in the home markets, in the eastern
and western cities, and sent to Europe,
Asia, Africa and all the Spanish-
American countries south of us.
These are facts worth noting and
acting upon.—Constitution.

Tifton, February 14.—Just one
bundled and thirty miles from Bruns
wick, in the highest, healthiest and
most prosperous section of YViregrass
Georgia, where the popular liruns-
wick& Western and thegreat Georgia
Southern railroads cross, is the beau
tiful little city of Tifton, built on a
half dozen hills, two thousand feet
above the level of the sea, entirely
free from the dread disease malaria,
so common in south Georgia towns,
with its pure waters, splendid hotels,
and sociable citizens, it is one of the
most admirable homes in the state,
and just now there is no town in
Georgia that is more enterprising.
While many other towns are com
plaining of hard times and a general
lack of business, Tifton is steadily
growing at a rate that will in a few
years make it one ol tlie leading cities
of south Georgia.
Tlie lumber and.turpentine indus
try owned and operated by that vete
ran manufacturer of Georgia pines'
lumber, Capt. II. 11. Tift, is unex
celled in amount or quality of mate
rial by any mills in the state. Capt.
McCullough, Hruuswiek's well known
shipper, loads one or more vessels
with lumber from these mills every
week. The Tifton barrel factory is
turning out some very lino bands.
Mr. Hike, the. manager, says be ex
pects to furnish the turpentine men
of this section all the bands they
need this season.
The Tifton Canning factory, Mr.
II. II. Tift, president, is one of the
latest enterprises. The erection of
the plant is under the supervision of
,Superintendent Slack and will be
ready for this season’s crop of toma
toes, which is the largest in Georgia,
more than one hundred acres being
planted.
The tobacco industry, which lias
proven such a success in this section,
will be one of the principal crops this
year. More than two hundred acres
will he planted by Messrs. Tift Drug,
alone.
The culture of grapes lias proven
\ erv protitable, and many farmers are
increasing their acreage this year.
A bank with $40,(Hid capital has
been organized, and will commence
business on the first of March.
Mr. W. O. Patrick has just given
the contract for the erection of a two-
story brick store. Among the new
residences now being built we notice
those of J. W. Paulk, W. N. Cole,
J. II. Shepherd and C. W. Maynard.
The farmers seem to have caught
the spirit of progress, and instead of
planting their entire crops in cotton,
arc varying them, planting largely of
vegetables, melons, grapes, etc.
Tifton is what the Atlanta Journal's
Kodaker would call a hummer, and
its surrounding farmers too.
Hugh K. Salter, the notorious
counterfeiter who was under bond of
$l,‘20(l to appear at United States
court this week, has skipped, leaving
his bondsmen in the lurch.
The most remarkable child proba
bly bring is the soil of Mr. Paulk,
living a few miles from town. He is
four years old, four feet and three
inches high, Weighs 94 pounds, and
there is not an ounce of surplus flesh
about him. lie is fully developed
and has the voice of a man. Mr.
Paulk speaks of exhibiting tins won
derful child at the World's Fair.
Editor Allen is getting out a cred
itable sheet. The Gazkttk is among
the leading weeklies of Georgia.
