I bis is no hyper ollcal descri lion, as the record of the last lire years will show. During that time it has built a-ul pat into most successful operation a $100,000 cotton factory aud is now building another w ith nearly twioe the capital. It has pnt up a ■,*.ge iron and brass foundry, a fertiliser fne- ory, an immense ice and bottling works, a lash aud blind factory, a broom factory opened up the finest granite qnarry in the failed State®, and has many other enter¬ prises in ontemplation. It has secured jnothc allroad ninety miles long, and while | ooateu on the greatest system in the South, the Central, has secured connection with its important rival, the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia. It has jast secured direct inde¬ pendent connection with Chattanooga and the W. st, aud has the President of a fourth ' railroad residing here and working to its ultimate completion. With Us five white and three colored churches, it is now building a $10,000 new Presbyterian ohnroh. It lias increased its population by nearly one fifth. It has at¬ tracted around its borders fruit growers from nearly every State in the Union, until it is now surrounded on nearly every Bide by or¬ chards and vineyard. It is the home of the grspe and its wine winking capaoity has doubled every year. It lias successfully inaugurated a system of public schools, witi a seven years curriculum, second to none. This is part of the reoord of a half decade aud simply shows the progress of an already admirable city, with the natural advantages ot having the finest climate, summer and winter, in the world. Griffln is the county seat of Spalding county, situated in west Middle Geo-gia, with a healthy, fertile and rolling country, 1150 feet above sea level. By the census of 1890, jt will liuve at a low estimate between 6,000 and 7,000 people, aud they nre allot the rigid aort—wide-awake, up to the times, ready to welcome strangers and anxious to secure de arable settlers, whowlll not be any less wel¬ come if they bring money to help build up the town. There is about only one thing we need badly just now, and that is a big hotei We have several small ones, but their accom¬ modations are entirely too limited for onr business, pleasure and health seeking guests.
