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.
