M^Xy! aekingThat ^ ^ J. T-
he be allowed to
run the water from the ice factory to
his mill pond, under the supervision
of the street committee. Adopted.
The reports of the Clerk and Mar¬
shal for April and Mayyrere approved
and went to record. /
The ordinanceprobibitingthe plac¬ |
ing of goods on the sidewalks was
amended so that eight feet clear
should be allowed in the centre of the
sidewalk and carried.
The ordinance placing a heavy
license upon non-resident dealers in
pianos was adopted.
An ordinance waR adopted grant¬
ing certain rights to the Brush Elec¬
tric Light Co., and a committee ap¬
pointed to make minor changes in
the contract with the company so as
to be ready for signing. The com-
inittee consists of Aldermen Morris»
Deane, Patrick and City Attorney
Cleveland, and Will meet in Col. Cleve¬
land’s office this morning, when the
contract will probably be signed.
The committee from the tourna¬
ment committee asked that the track
be fenced in at once and that the
whole street be famed in from Thos.
Nall’s residence to ^King’s corner on
the 4th of Jujy. Full power was giv¬
en the committee of arrangements to
do as they thought best.

State Horticultural Society.
The Georgia State Horticultural
Society will meet in Griffin on the
31st of July, and their session will
last for two or three days.
This is one of the most important
societies in the State, and has done
much to advance the interest of Hor¬
ticulture.
As in other respects Georgia is the
Empire State in horticulture, and as
an evidence of this fact her most dig.
tinguished horticulturaiist, P. J.
Berekmans, of Augusta, has been
twice elected and is still President of
the Horticultural Society of the Uni¬
ted States.
In 1887 the State society met in
Dalton, Ga., almost the northern
extremity of the State, and in 1888
the society met in Thomasville, al¬
most the southern extremity of the
State, and neither of these places
claim to be located in the best fruit
section of the State.
In both Dalton and Thomasville
the delegates to the meeting of this
society were royally entertained.
Now, Griffin claims to be located
in the center of the best fruit section
of Georgia, and her rich advantages
justly entitle her to this claim, and
we feel confident that she will do
justice to herself, both in the exhibit
that this section will make, and in
the manner that the delegates will be
entertained
While Griffin is a city of good size
and a growing city, she is by no
means a very large city, and in-order
to properly entertain the number
that will be present, on this occasion
(say from four to five hundred) it
will be necessary for every citizen,
and those in the country living near
enough to do so, to entertain as
many as possible.
To show the importance of this
meeting we will state that the Com¬
mittee on the Experimental Farm
which has been located at Griffin,
postponed their meeting in order to
be here during the session of the
Horticultural Society.
This meetingwill bring together all
the prominent fruit growers of Geor¬
gia, and it is evident that exhibits
will come from all portions of the
State. Those interested in fruit
culture would do well to visit
Griffin at this time, as the exhibit
will be well worth seeing, and promi¬
nent members will read interesting
essays on the cultivation of the dif¬
ferent fruits. Those also who
contemplate embarking in the fruit
business should by all means visit
Griffin at this time, and see the fine
orchards and vineyards which sur¬
round our beautiful city, and they
will at once admit that we are by all
odds in the midst of the best fruit
section of the world.

under careful consideration, and
finally the council withdrew its offer,
