The Example That Griffin is Setting.
The two following appreciative
paragraphs aro front ; he Henry Conn
ty Weekly:
“The milroxcD seem to be playing
havoc with Griffin's territory,but her
citizens do not intend to die of stag
nation; they ttru taking tLiogs into
their own hands, and are buildiDg
up tho.r city with manufacturing es
tablishuiCQts that "ill make her a
wealthy innit,factoring center. It
would bo well for people abroad to
look at the course Griffin is pursu
ing, and do something for them
selves. There are hundreds of poo
pies, wage earners,who flock to Grif¬
fin to get employ merit in her matin
facturing establishments. There is
no Georgia ! •„ ; of its size that can
boast of as many manfacturing es
tablishments- The following are
some of the principal manufacturing
industries, cotton mill, iron and
brass founchs, clmii factory, sash,
door and blind factory, guano fac
lory, and planing mill,"
".McDonough has blowed in $15,
000 ou the G. M. & G. R R (which
by the way was a good investment,)
and should now endeavor to cam
late Gridin, ia building a ru inufuetur
ing establishment. It the moneyed
magnates oi McDonough would
build a $100,000 cotton tuiil, ihe in
vestment would pay them 20 per
cent, inside of 12 mouths. The
stock oftho Griffin cotton mill is
now selling at $100 per share
which originally sold for $100.
The stock holders of the mill are
making over 20 per cent, on the in
ve.'tment, and have subscribed $100,
000, to build a new mill, which will
be built at once, if you want a sure
invev, ticut, that will pay for all time
to c me", put up a cot Ion mill that
will grind out 20 per cent per annum
with cotton in itseare.”

THE EXCURSIONISTS.
THEY REACH JACKSONVILLE AND,
ST. ACGU8TINE.
The Subtropical Exposition»The Streets
of Jacksonville aud Hie St.
Augustine Hotel.
Special Correspondence New; .
Jacksonville, Feb. 10,’88.
As I told you in my last letter from
Waycross, T. B. Reams and myself
remained over there and took the
morning train this morning for this
place. We were unfortunately de
layed on the way, and in ihe inem
time it commenced to rain shout ten
o’clock in the morning, and contio
ued to rain until late in the evening;
which circumstance interfered very
much with enjoyments, as well as
with our plans. It prevented us
from going to St. Augustine. Most
of (jur delegation came on down here
last night and so far as I know they
all went down to St. Augustine. All
that 1 have heard from report the
mammoth hotel there tho grandest
one on the continent.
All hands that have visited the
grand display of tropical fruits here
at the Exposition grounds pronounce
it as indescribable and can only be ap
predated by visiting them. Now,
for a few words about Jacksonville.
Four years ago I was here. It was
a grand place then, but the improve¬
ments made since I was here four
years ago are simply astonishing. I
mention especially the improvements
on the streets. They were a bed of
deepi sand and now they have them
paved with blocks of cypress standing
on end, sawed smooth and sysiemati
cally put in, making the streets
smooth and nice,and serves the same
purpose as the Belgian rock.
As you know, this is a fast age iu
which we live and an age of great im
provemeutin travel,. ICor instance it
is 353 miles from Griffin to Jackson
ville via Albany. Trains that leave
here at 7 o’clock p. m. will arrive in
Griffin at 11:30 next day, if no deten
tion occurs. V man that wants to
feast his eyes on sawmills, planing
and matching mills, turpentine or
cnards, and distilleries, Ac., can be
fully accommodated by tak'ng day
time run from Albany to Jackson
ville. In the whole route of 171mil«s
he will see more of the things describ
ed and less of good farming land,
and fewer comfortable dwelling
houses than be could see in the same
distance any where I know of.
Truly, there are a few men settled on
the road, and as Bill Arp would say,
seem to be comfortable and serene.
I must close for today for want of
time. Respectfully,
S. W. Bloodwortii.
P. S.—While 1 was writing up
Waycross I omitted to mention that
they have two flourishing week
ly newspapers and a mixed school of
160 students. s. W. B-

I good for five days from dne cf sale.

this occasion are requested to notify

STOP SHOOTING t
A Woman's EyePnt Oat—A Paid from
Marshal Manley.
Griffin, Ga , Feb. 18
Editor Maws:—On Friday a no
gro woman named Mary Tharp, liv
ing iu Southeast Griffin, i ear Ison’s
branch, while working on her premi
sea had her eye put out by a shot
fired from a parlor rifle by an un
known white buy. Tbo wound is
not only exceedingly painful, hut
disfigures the woman au»l deprives
her of a useful member through
life, The same accident might have
happened to the best white lady or
man iu town. Numerous complaints
have been made to me from vinous
parties about the shpoting that is
eing done in all parts of town,
both day nod uight, especially by
boys with parlor rifles This is not
only dangerous, but contrary to the
laws of the State and the ordinau
Isos of the city, and it must and shall
be stoppod.
1 therefore give /air warniug that
any one caught firing off any fire
arm if any kind, or known to have
fired off any firearm, within the in
corporate limits of the city of Grif
fin, will bo u trusted and placed iu
the guard bouse for trial. litis ap
plies to old and young alike, are
8pectivo of persons, nnd moans just
what it says ; and I hope it will be
heeded. T. G. Manley,
Marshal.
The above card will receive the
hearty commendation of every eiti
zen of Griffin, and we hope to see
the order vigorously euforoed. It
is full time that a stop should bo put
to thia jpromiscuou ■; fusilading that
bas been annoying peaceable citi
zens.
What can be more disagreeable, more
disgust in 3, than to Bit in a room with a
person who is troubled with catarrh,
and had to keep coughing and clearing

to b • if try to cure
selves and fail. But if the get Dr.

MIL RANDALL AGAIN DOWNED.
Scott’s Lieutenant Appointed Member
of the Campaign Committee,
Washington, Feb 18. — fSpecial.J—
It will bo i.xembered that at the
Democratic caucus held last week to
select a now Congressional Commit
tec, tho State of Pennsylvania did
not make its selection, becauso of tho
contest going on between Represen
tat.ves Scott and Randall, each con
tending against tho other for con
troi < f the Slate delegation and
Democratic party machinery. The
fight has progressed with great vig
or, until it has become personal be
tweeu the two, until they have quit
extending the usual courtesies
among gentlemen and refuse to speak
to one another.
Mr. Scott, however, has triumph
over his protection opponent
Randall, and to-day was successful
in having appointed upon the Con
gressional Committee, his first lion
tanant and faithful follower, Repre
aentaliva Mash, who will bear the
Scott banner from this until tho end
of the campaign in November. This
defeat of Mr. Randall drives another
nail in Lis political casket, which but
foreUi's the fa?e that awaits him, so
long as be occupies his present an
tagonist c opposition to tariff reform
and the wishes of 'be administra
tion.
If you ar# afflicted with rlienutatium, tieu
ralgia, gout or other bodily pain, or if you
havo a sprained wrist or ankle you ought at
once to procure a bottle of Salvation Oil, tho
greatest cure ou eartti for pain. It only costt
25 cent- a bottle.

A Nice Schedule.
We present this morring a MW
schedule on the Geor Midland—
and a fine large sc! ia. By
this schedule the \ u of M«
Donough and Henry County get on®
tram each way a day, and th»t »
mixed one. If they want to com®
to Griffin they can start at bcif past
two in the afternoon of on® day sod
get back at one o’clock in th® after
noon of tLo next da;. They will
find nice I eds and hospitable accost
modations w hen our hotels are not
too crowded, uod this will b® r®rj
convenient for attending the many
entertainments at the opera boot®
of a uight and getting tb® jog filled
next morning: ladiea are requested
to bring tbeir knitting. Bat people
who come on business will find tb®
railroad vary good walking, even to
muddy weather, alwaya being car®
ful not to wear out the croaatiea and
to keep a sharp lookout for the nam
erous trains.
There is only one objection to
tLiis schedule. As tbo people of
Henry county can not possibly com®
to Griffin two days in sneceaaion tb®
way trains now run, wby coaid tb®y
not all arrange to com® on tbe same
days, and thus save tbe useless cx
pense ol running a tram each way
every day? One train south one day
and north the next day ought to b«
sufficient. We submit this to th® man
who made up this schedule, and wbo
seems to be too mocb influenced by
Henry coudIj's liberal snbscription.
