Wh*t a Correspoudant Saw to Write
About Our Famed City—Its
Numerous Advantages.
Special to Atlanta Count,!tutioo.
Griffin, Ga., June 15 ,-Ab a live
and progressive little city, it would b#
difficult to find tbe equal pi Griffin.
Located on the crest of the highest
ridge in middle Georgia, surrounded
by hundreds of acres in peaches, and
the hiUsidescovered with picturesque
vineyards, Griffin is a beautiful little
"«“"**« Nature has uuo been um kind Kinu to co her, ner,
everything grown in this country,
and everything in abundance. Her
lands are the most fertile, and their
yield per acre is unexcelled. Her farm¬
ers are intelligent and industrious,
and consequently Die majority are
independent.
A FORTUNATE (TTY. f
It is the surrounding country and
railroad facilities that make tbe city.
Griffin is favored" with both, and
while only a small city of 6,000 in¬
habitants today it will not be many
years before wo findGriffinin the very
foremost ranks of Georgia cities.
There seems to be something in the
very atmosphere of the place that
charges its inhabitants with energy
and pluck. They are full of both and
are pushing their city forward with
rapidity. Already it is ;i pretty city
with substantial brick business hous¬
es and residences that equal any m
the state in point of beauty. Around
each home is a great yard covered
New Presbyterian Church, Griffin, Ga.
with beautiful shade trees and car.
peted with grasses, while roses grow
everywhere in profusion. In fact
Grffin is often called th6 city of roses>
on account of the thousands of these
most beautiful of flqwem grown, kera.
Her tnerchnms a re full of enterprise
and progressiveness and they never
lose an opportunity to develop their
pretty little city. They realize that
their location could not be better*
that nature has done everything for
them, that they not only have
THE FINEST FARMING LANDS,
but a country full of mineral riches,
that the surrounding hills are in many
instances solid masses of the richest
iron ores, and that to niuke a great
city it is only necessary to butitfcian-
ufactories. This they haye done and
are con tinuing to do so, and right
here let us see what t hey have accom¬
plished in the past three years. Here
is a list. Every dollar invested has
been Griffin money :
NRW ENTERPRISES. “
i The Griffin cotton, factory with
#125,000 capital, 5,000 spendles, 175
looms and 200 hands.
The Kincaid cotton factory with
f150,000capital, 5,000spindlee, 162
looms and 190 hands. Tbe capacity
will, however, be doubled in the fall.
The Griffin guano factory and cot¬
ton seed oil mill now building with
$ 50,000 capital and to employ forty
hands.
The alliance oil mill and fertilizer
factory, to be completed in the early
fall, with 40,00® capital; a canning
factor;! with |10 ; 000 and a capacity
of a thousand cans a day; and a fruit
evaporator with$20,000 capital,
Osborn & Wolcott’s foundry and
machine works, with f 40,000 capital,
working forty hands.
A broom factory with f2,000 capi¬
tal and working six hands.
Two door, sash and blind factories,
working twenty-five hands each.
Then a new Presbyterian church
has been built at a cost of $12,000';
a new bank with $100,000 capital has
been organized and will commence
business at once; the experimental
station which cost Griffin $14,000
has been donated to the state, and
Griffin has subscribed $35,GOO to the
Georgia Midland railroad.
Besides these she lias an ice facto¬
ry and bottling works; the largest
chair factory jn the south, the prop¬
erty of Osborn & Wolcott; two large
buggy and wagon factories; a tele¬
phone exchange in successful opera¬
tion; grist and flour mills; a distil¬
lery, and various other small manu¬
factories. ' ; ; •

and as soon as obtained, a dummy

legislature for the “Saving* bank of
Griffin,” and tbe bank will be organ¬

be established and conducted by the

supplies the country immediately
around, but her merchants do * con¬

business of the town amounts to
something over four million dollars

completed within a year, which in
connection with the proposed line
from Athens to Chester, SC C., will
give Griffin a short line to New York.
As to schools and ctmrches, Griffin
is second to no city of its size. The
public school building is very large
and was constructed at a cost *!
twenty thousand dollars.' Nearly ail
the churches are new and handsome.
Indeed everything about Griffin ex¬
cept the old, almost abandoned
Railroad street, has a neat and pret-’ ;
ty, new appearance. Nearly all the
old houses have been torn down and
replaced by new ones, which,are under
construction everywhere, indeed the
people of Griffin are up with the times
and none of her advantages are over¬
looked. ' * x'|
