HEATING l.li: RECORD
And Healing Columbus Along the Geor¬
gia Midland
When the Georgia Midland wa? built
Columbus, having put a good pile of
money into it, thought that all the ben
efita should come that way; and Griffin,
not being used to spreading along rail
roads ranch, seemed inclined to yield
tho point that it was useless to compete
with the larger aud apparently tho busi
ness end of the road, Tin schedules
were mainly for tho convenience of Co
lumbus, and people from this end of the
line flocked there for (ho novelty of the
thing. Cotton went that way, and Grit
fin only got cotton as far out as Concord,
and only 450 bales from there last year.
But Griftiti has recovered her breath
from the surprises of having a new' rail
road nui through her best territory—
aud everybody knows that in a fight or
oot race the second wind is the best.
It might seem rather fresh to claim any
thing as our territory further than wo
controlled before the Georgia Midland
was built, with such a compelitor asJCo
lumbus, but the tact remains that while
our trade only extended in previous
years to the Pine mountains, cotton is
being shipped Ibis year from Raleigh,
on the other side of tho mountains and
much nearer Columbus than Griffin.
Woodbury aud all intermediate points,
as well as points beyond, are shipping
and selling their cotton in this market
and buying their supplies here, simply
because it pays them best. Close com
petition aud greater nearness to neigh
boring large markets compel our cotton
buyers to pay more and our merchants
to sell lower than Columbus does, and
tho planter is taking advantage of these
circumstances.
Tho highest price yesterday was given
to T. JY. Dumas, of Liberty llill, who
was given 9 3-10 cents for thiee bales of
fine cotton weighing 579,503 and Oil
pounds.
The past week has been another good

miuatiug on Friday and Saturday. The

A Bear Creates Some Excitement.
N il. Woodward, who lives near McKib

choked a deg to death which belonged to a

that it is a pet bear aud that lie made liis e-
