MOW COLUMBUS PROPOSES TO AD-
TEBTISE.
With towns as will) individuals,
there ia nothing like advertising to
make things go. If you are doing
bosinass let it be known, applies as
well to communities as to merchants.
These principles are bping forced
upon the recognition of the cities of
the State, and they are doing all that
they can to attract attention. Among
these is our recently awakened neigh
bor of Columbus.
The Columbus board of trade, at
its last session, appointed a commit
tee of seven business men to UeviBe
* plan by which the city might be
advertised, and its advantages made
known to the outside world. That
committee met three times, and, af
ter a long and exhaustive discusion
of all and every plan in their knowl
edge, decided upon a course which
they believe to be both possible and
effective. Tho result of their labors
is published in the Ccdger.
One of these lines of advertising
consists of the preparation of a boun
titul supply of stationary, both of en
velopes and letter sheets. These en
volopes to have a minature view of
the city on the backs, with a small
railroad guide and cuts on corners.
___These are to be furnished the board
of trade in large quantities, and sold
to merchants at a price less than he
is now paying. The merchant or
manufacturer can put his own card on
the post side and advertise himself at
the same time be does the city. To
go in these envelopes, and to be sup
plied free to the city, will bo a
“folder” giving a bird’s-eye view of
the city, all tho railroads, factories,
boats, river, sobools, puhiicbuildings,
tax reports, markets, churches, etc.
in a condensed form, and to be print
ed in a neat, modern style. These
are the small side issues, so to speak.
Tbeir efforts wore directed mainly to
a very elaborate and thorough ailver
tising of the city abroad, through the
two daily papers. It is the purpose
to engage a full page of each of
these dailies, supply them with a list
of first-class men in the northern and
western states, including farmers, me
cbanics,artisans, manufacturers,bank
ers and capitalists, who may be fav¬
orably inclined this way. They will
seoare thirty thousand names, to
whom these papers will be sent. This
issue of the paper will have editorial
nclicas, endorsing and promoting the
scheme. On the page used by the
Board will be a full view of the city.
Every feature of Columbus,rnateri
al and social life will bo proclaimed,
and the entire page devoted to tho
purpose of attracting new comers.
It will be written by the best tale r .,t
in the city, revised and oh*. n p 0 d
every issue, and with the «V/ U |a r sub
acribers of these jouros 1 9 a Jded to
the list, it is hoped ( 0 reach fifty
thousand people
1 be eooafjittee concludes ns fol
lows:
“tyj do this and to get up the fol
will cost money. That money
will have to be raised by voluntary
contributions. Everybody is iuter
ested in this work, and every man,
woman and child will be benefitted.
We want these people to comp here
and see our city.
“The little villages of Alabama and
North Georgia are spending thou
I rods of dollars in this direction,
and every day brings great throngs
of visitors, who buy property, build i
mills, open banks and settle down, :
We get none of them, because they
never hear of us. The little tillage
of Gadsden paid $3,000 for one
piece of work in advertising. Athens,
Term., and Rome, Ga., have spent
ten thousand dollars, and Tallapoosa
has spent more in one year than onr
city ever did in its history for blow
iDg its town. If we expect to got
these people yon have to go down in
your pockets and pay the money.
If your committee is to do these
things before mentioned, they must
have the money. The presidest of
the board of trade will appoint a sub
committee to call upon the people
and get their subnet iptions, and the
advertising committee will give you
the best disbursement in their power.
“It is now or never with our op
portunity.”
Senatei* Colquitt’s great tariff
speech delivered in the U. 8, Senate
on the 12th instant is having a tell
ing effect in eveiy section of the
Union where read. It is the ablest,
clearest, and most comprehensive
speech in favor of tariff reduction,
which means m favor of the masses,
it has ever been oar privilege to
read. Of this speech the Washing
ton correspondent of the Enquirer
Sun says:
‘ I am in a position to know some
thing about the effect which Senator
Colquitt’s speech has had and is hav
ing in congress and in the country.
Demands for copies of the speech for
circulation have come in from Iowa
and Illinois, and o.ther states in that
and other sections. These applica
tions are from leading citizens, who
unite in tho expression of the opin
ion that the general distribution of
the speech in their localities is all
that will bo necessary to secure
democratic success on the line of
tariff reform.
“I make note of all these facia be
cause they will be of interest to the
many readers of tho Enquirer Sud,
and because of the personal gratifi
cation that I feel as a Georgian and
as a democrat, in knowiug that
the strongest and most telliDg en
dorsement that our democratic
president has yet received has been
from the h inds of a Georgia senator.
It will be a matter of no small pride
to Georgians to kuow that Clove
land’s message and Colquitt s speech
on it. constitute all the campaign
artillery that will bo needed to bat
ter down the defences of protection
from ocean to ocean.
Rivers in the north and west are
reported to be at flood height- The
Upper Missouri is now flooding the
country, railroad bridges are washed
away and much damage done to
other property. Out of this, may
grow a Hooding of the Mississippi
country, and great destruction to

is very naive. The genius of the waters,
it seems, wishing to cross the -traits dry -

when he had jiaused over, to ball back
into its place again, which it did with
such momentum as to go on oscillating
