We may lalk manufactures if we will, Rut the hotel question will keep coming still.” * Such was not tbe exact lauguuge of Mr. C. fl. Osborn, after tbe new cotton factory bad been announced us an assured fact ; but that was bis general idea. “I nru very glad new factory is going to be built.’ 1 be said ; "but I bad rather see a good new hotel hero than anything As the proprietor of the non and brass foundry and one of tbe pro prietors of the carriage works and the chair works, Mr. Osborn's opiu ion, as a manufacturer, should car iy weight. “Have you any uews?“ was tba similar and simultaueous ejaculation of Mr. David Ming and the News on meeting recently. “I wish you could announce as an item in the morning that a new hotel was going to be buiil,“ s id Mr, Wing, “I consider it tbe most beneficial thing that Griffin could do to build a handsome hotel in keeping with the size and growing importance of the town. We need it and we ought to have ,it.“ Mr. Wing is the proprietor of the Griffin fruit evaporators and con templates putting up a canning fac tory. He also has other property in Griffin. Besides having addition al factories in New York and Ar kansu.8, he is a gentleman of wide travel and knowledge of men and the world.’ “I can already count on enough guests to till my house during the summer,'' said Major A. G. Daniel, the proprietor of the Hotel Curtis, not long ago. “My rooms will be filled at a good price and I will doubtless Lave to turn many appli cant8 away. For this reason, my ac commodations being limited, I have not made any especial effort to secure custom. I have had plenty of expe rience in the hotel business, and think I knowhow to run a houre to suit almost anybody. I only wish I had a house with fifty or a hundred rooms, and built in the proper style to run a hotel. I would show them bow soon I would fill it with guests. I should be veiy glad to leuse such a hotel if one were built." Major Daniel is from Charlotte, N. C., and originally and mostly from Kentucky. Having business down here several seasons, he came to like tbe place so well that tbe first of tbe year be rented Ibo Curtis House and has been running it in good siyle ever since. From our own ob servation and from tbe views which tbeMuj-r expresses, we believe he is cor-net in thinking he knows how to run a hotel. The Thomusvilje Enterprise bas been m. k rg ihe rounds of the hotels and 1 otrding houses for the purpose of ascertaining how many winter vis itors there ate in the town It places the number at 1,200. 1,200 visitors in a town means busines:- far a groat many people. It is enough to sustain several gro cers, bakers and livery stable men, beside-s all the savants that would be required to wait on so many guests. Of course, Griffin would not have so many guests tbe first season ; it would require several seasons, and several hotels for their accommodation, But we can have as many as we are ready to date. . We didn’t like to write about hotel business any more. It T is so much talk for so little j an d we are afraid of making peop tired, But such facts ami sions as the above are corning up aDd like murder will out. Our incipient muuafaetur ing boom ia already advertising the town • but if there were people from all parts of the United States to Bee what was going ou. to tell their friends, and often to take a hand themselves and invest a few tbona and. bow much more rapid would be Griffin's growth and fume! And it would cost only a third as much as one cotton factory. But a hotel wouldn't pay like a cotton factory, yon say. Well, maybe it wouldn't briug in thirty per cent. tLe first year. But the indirect ben¬ efits would he far greater than one isolated enterprise could confer. And it is not always the longest s’ghted men who look for the quickest prof its. Having thus relieved our mind and nur memorandum book of this question for a short time, we closo in tho words of Mr. Osborn : We are very glad the new factory is go ing to be built, but wo had rather bee a good new hotel here than any thing else. Is It Not Singular that consumptives Bbould be the least apprehensive of their own condition, while all their friends are urging and beseeching them to be more careful about exposure and overdoing. It may well be considered one of (lie most alarm ing symptoms of the disease, where the patient is reek ess aud will not believe that he is in danger. Reader, if you are in this condition, do not neglect the only means of recovery. Avoid exposure and fatigue, be regular in your habits, and use Medical faithfully of Dr. Pierce’s saved “Golden thons ands Discovery.” steadily It has who were failing.

Two Ways, t’lioosc W hich ! There are two usual ways of doing namely, what Nature sometimes d«e= ineomietely, to relieve the tiowels One is to swallow a drastic abruptly purgative and with which pain, evacuates the other profusely, is to take Hostetter’s Stomach Bitter*, the effect of which i* not violent, but sufficient thorough, and which does not gripe the intestines. If the first is selected, the pe son employing it need not expeet permanent benefit, and he cannot hope to escape the debilitaing bad reae tion which leaves the organs as or worse he off than before. If, on the other hand, resorts to the Bitter*, he can rely upon the restoration of a tegular habit of body, conse quent upon a renewal of healthful tone in the intestinal canal. Besides healthfully relax ing the bowtls, the Bitters arouses a dorm ant liver, imparts a beneficial impetus to the ac- tion of the kidneys, aDd counteracts the ear¬ ly twings of rheumatism, a tendency to gont. and malaria in all iU forma.

CLARK Sl SON. CONVENTION COMMENT. ABOUT THE CALL FOR TIIF. DEMO¬ CRATIC GATHERING. All Sides Urge Speedy Action on lie- forming “That Thieving Tariff.” Washing ros. Feb. 25.—[Special. 1 The Star contains the following : The Democratic Representatives were late getting to tie House Ibis morning. When they began to come all ttibir talk was about tbeDemocrat ic convention, and tbe occasion just aunout ced that it was lo go to St. Louis. This decision seemed to meet with pretty general approval. Tbe opinion was nearly unanimous that this was favorable to Mr. Clave land's renominatiou. Tbe St. Louis peoplo were avowediy Cleveland men, and bis tariff reform message excited glowing enthusiasm. It w is thought to be not nnlike ly that a caucus will be held now that the date and place of tbe con vention is settled, that tbe party may cjrae to some sort of an under standing as to wb.it they shall do about an adjournment or a recess. Tbe great object of a majority of the Democrats in the House is to get a tariff bill through in time to give it a mention 'in tbe platform, maike.i with an index finger of pride. A member of the Ways and Means Committee told a Star reporter that *the Tariff Bill was practically ready to report now. and tbat it would have been submitted to the whole committee this week, but that some members of the committee were obliged to be absent. It would, he said, be submitted to tbe whole committee in a few days. He was well satisfied with the work of tbe committee. It is proposed to press this uow for passage against tbe tune of tiie convention. Speaking of 'the choice of meet ing place lo a Star reporter, Mr. Cox sai l good place, all Cleveland. Mr. Hatch eaai it takes’ us among triends. These is no better place. I? is Cleveland, but it wonld have meant Cleveland whatever place bad been selected for the meeting Mr. Bland was glad they hid got in a good Democratic locality. .Mr. lio.iiitii had no objection to mil to tim place, and said that all tu'- ait.meo! found in the congre guti n of Deruocihts was in favor of Clevci. od There is no other semi ineut here hr* said. Mr. O’Neil, of Missouri, said St. Lonis was the finest city in tbe country, aud all was Cleveland. Mr. Ford, of Michigan, was highly pleased -,itb the result. Ith Cleve land with a whoop and a yell, he de c! iff d- Mr. Burnt, of MiSiouii, said the selection of the city had no political significance. It was the time <- f mew: ing that signified.

Senator Gorman expressed him self as satisfied with the location and NUMBER 29 ns to the du’e He sa d it was the result of mature deliberation. He ad bered to bis opinion that ao early convention was not the best, but, of comse, acquiesced in the judgement of the committee. As to the politi cal significance or indications os to tho Administration, Senator Gorman said: Such talk is nonsence. There has not been a suggestion of animosity to the Administration in all the proceedings. The fight for location was between three determin ed cities, but no hostility to the President bas influenced any action. Nor, as I‘ve said, has *nch f«®l ing shown itself, f • has bat recently shown bov. i feeling the people there bavs L»r the Preai dent.
