A very little familiarity with the
poor districts of any city is sufficient to
show how primitive and frontierliko
are the neighborly relations, say» Jane
Addams in The Atlantic. Tim fact that
the economic condition of all alike is on
a most precarious level makes the ready
outflow of sympathy and material as
sistance the most natural thing in the
world. There are numberless instances
of heroic self sacrifice quite unknown
in the circles where greater economic
advantages make that kind of intimate
knowledge of one’s neighbors impawn- I
ble.
An Irish family, in which the man I
has lost his place and the woman is
struggling to eke out the scanty sav
ings by day work, will take in a widow .
and her five children who have been
turned into the street without a mo
ment’s reflection upon the physical dis
comforts involved. The most maligned
landlady is usually ready to lend a scut
tlefnl of coal to a suffering tenant or to
share her supper.
A woman for whom the writer had
long tried in vain to find work failed to
appear at the appointed time when a
job turned up at last. Upon investiga
tion it transpired that a neighbor fur
ther down the street was taken ill; that
the children ran for the family friend,
who went, of course, saying simply,
when reasons for her nonappearance
were demanded, “It broke me heart to
leave the place, but what could I do?”
A \ lew of Edmund*.
George F. Edmunds had a high rupu
tation in the country as an able lawyer
and a faithful and independent senator.
He had unquestionably rendered great
public service in the senate. If elected,
I believe he would have administered
the presidency on the principles which a
largo majority of the people of Massa
chnssets held. Ho was an excellent de
bater. He was very fond of criticising
and objecting to what was proposed by
other men. He seemed never so happy
ns when in opposition to the majority
of his associates. But he possessed what
persons of t hat temper commonly lack—
great capacity for constructive states
manship. Any measure of which ho
win the author would bo likely to ac
' complish its purpose and to stand fire.
David Davis, who was president pro
i tempore of the senate, used to say he
i jxlvvav" compel Edmunds to vote
in the negative on a question by put
ting the question in the old Now Eng
land fashion. “Contrary minded will
say no,” for Edmunds was always con
trary minded. I once told him. borrow
ing a saying of an Englishman, that if
George Edmunds were the only man in
the world George would quarrel with
Edmunds.—Senator George F. Hoar, in
Scribner's.

LAND POOR.
A Schema to Give Evary Man a
Farm, by a Person Who is
Land Poor.
Mi:. Fditok : Some year ago I look an
idea that land was the safest investment
that a man could make in Georgia, and as
a consequence, I am now land poor; have
more than I can profitably make use of,
and consequently want to get rid of some,
or all of it, and 1 have decided to adopt
the following measure to get rid of it:
I will say, in the first place, that the
land is the best in Monroe county, is fine
ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat
tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best for
cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains
in the county r . There are a number of
tenant houses on the place, and a home
recentlj’ built that cost me over $3,000 to
build. The land, in the first place, cost
me from $25 down to $4 per acre—saying
altogether, about $lO per acre, without
improvements ; and to get rid of it, I will
average the whole place at $lO per acre,
in the following way : 1 will have the
entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into
50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more
than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and
less than 50 to another, according to his
ability to pay for it, as the case may be,
the entire quantity to be drawn for.
In other words, the number of lots and
quantity of land to be put in a hat or box,
and drawn out under approval of a com
mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time,
so that all shall have a fair chance to get a
home at a low price, and no one has a
chance of losing their money, or failing to
get their value, as paid, and some get a
farm at far less than cost
The land is 12 miles from Macon, a city
of some 50,000 or 60,000 people, and is
adapted to maiket gardening, and for
northern people who know how to work,
it offers a fine opportunity for a colony of
energetic citizens.
It is all together, and would make a fine
settlement, having the best of pastures,
water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is
timbered with hickory, beach, oak and
pine, and some cedar; in fact, it is the best
o’ace I know of and I am satisfied the ed
itor of the Call will vouch for what I
say.
I would be glad to have any parties who
mean business, to go over the plantation,
familiarize themselves with the advan
tages, and communicate with me at
Barnesville, before going into the matter,
assuring them that I mean what I say.
In addition to the terms offered above, I
have concluded to make the terms of pay
ment in four annuai payments without
interest, which is tantamount to putting
the price of the land very low, The
titles to the land have been in the posses
sion ol one or two parties for years, and
have never been questioned and are as
good as gold.
I am not particularly wedded to this
plan of getting rid of my lands, but only
sugge.-t the idea —an\ better plan would
be tlomkfullv substituted.
