Secretary Alger »ttys that he will not res’gn, si* hii candidacy for the senate does not interfere «iib his cabinet po sition. But who ever intimated such a thing? Secretary Alger has used bis cabinet position from the first in play ing the game of politics, and he will find more need for it now than ever Louisville Courier-Journal. she Chattitnooga News makes this observation: “Georgia seems to be trying to outdo the Carolinas in estab lishing laclories Not a day passes of late that the loc .1 capitalists of some entail town io ulir sister state do not get together and sub-cribc stock for a new industrial enterprise on a largo scale.” Griffin is ono of the b st and most enterprising cities in tin state. Her growth during the lust few jears ha heen 1 eifi ijr k able It is all due to the spirit of her business men who appre ciate ar opportunity for development and grasp it without, hesitation. \\ ith in n very short period this city has invested more than a quarter of a mill ion dollars in cotton mills Ibis is in addition to her nln ady large and pros perous mill interests. — 1 homsslon Times.

The New York organization brought suit to prevent the other branch from using the name, “Colonial Dames,” alleging priority of ownership ; hence the im portance of age in the case. We have heard of corners on meat, but the idea of cornering cattle on the hoof out on tfie western ranches is rather a novel one, says the Columbus Enquirer Thia plan ranks with the one to secure control of all of the rice lands in the Carolinas, and b >th are in the nature of trusts, and bode no good to the public. As the story goes, an English lias a capital of one hundred million dollars to corner the cattle on the hoof out weal, par ticularly in Texas. This is in the na ture of a dare to the governor of that state, who is leading the fight against trusts to bn inaugurated by the anti trust convention. It is really carrying the fight into the enemy’s country, and it remains to be seen what Gov ernor Sayre will do about it.

Thia is well known to the Americin people, and they have also observed that when the foreign goods had been thus excluded these identical “captions of industry” were foremost in organ izing these combinations to stifle com petition and pul prices to the highest possible notch. —New York Herald.

Mr. Editor : Some years ago I took 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 I have decided to adopt the following measure to get rid of it: I will say, in the first place, that the laud is the best in Monroe county, i» 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. There are a number of tenant houses on ti£ place, and a home recently 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 : I will have the entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into 50-acre than 50 acres td 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 sorne stated time, so that all shall have a fair chance to get a home at a low price, and no one has a change of losing their m >ney, 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 market gardening^.and. Xor 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 place I know of, and I am satisfied the ed itor of the Call will vouch for what 1 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 annual 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 of one or two parties for years, and have never been questioned and are as good as gold. 1 am not particularly wedded to this plan of getting rid of my lands, but only suggest the idea—any better plan would be thankfully substituted.
