GRIFFIN, GEORGIA, U S. A.
Griffin is the Best and most promising little
ity in the South. Its reeord lor the past
hail decade, its many new enterprises in oper¬
ation, building and contemplated, prove this
a be a business statement' and not a hyper-
olical description.
During that time it has built and pnt into
most succeesfnl operation a #100,000 cotton
aetory and with this year started the wheels
of a second ol more than twiee that capital.
It has pot op a large iron and brass foundry,
a fertiliser f actory, an immense ice and bot¬
tling works, a sash uni blind factory, a
broom factory, opened up the finest granite
quarry in the United States, and now has
our large oil mills iu more or less advanced
stages of construction, with an aggregate au¬
thorized capital of over half omilhon dollars.
It is potting op the finest system of electric
ghtiug that can be procured, and has ap¬
plied lor two*. arters ior street railways. It
has secured another railroad ninety miles long,
and while located on the greatest system in
the South, the Central, has secured connec¬
tion with its important rival, the East Ten¬
nessee, Virginia and Georgia. It boa obtain-
d direct independent connection with Chat
tanooga and the West, and will break ground
na few days fora fourth road, connecting
with a fourth independent system.
With its five white and fourcolored church
re, it has recently completed a #10,000 new
Presbyterianehurch. It has increased its pop¬
ulation by nearly one fifth. It has attracted
around its borders fruit growers from nearly
•very State in the Union, until it ia now sur¬
rounded on nearly every side by orchards
and vineyards. It has put up the largest
roit evaporators ia the State. It is the home
of the grape audits wiuemakingcapacity has
doubled every year. It has successfully in
angorated a system of public schools, with a
seven years curriculum, second to none.
This is part of the record of a half decade
and simply shows the progress of an already
admirable city with the natural advantages
of having the finest climate, summer and
winter, in the world.
Griffin is the county seat of Spalding coun¬
ty, situated in west Middle Georgia, with a
healthy, fertile and roiling country, 1150 feet
above sea level. By the census of 1890, it
will have at alow estimate between G 000 and
7,000 people, and they are all ol the right
sort—wide-awake, up to the times, ready to
welcome strangers and anxious to secure de¬
sirable settlers, who will not be any less wel
come if they bring money to help build up the
own. There is abont only one thing we
need badly just now, and that is a big hotel
We have several small ones, but their accomj
modatious are entirely too limited for our
usine s, pleasure and health seskig nguests
If you see anybody that wants a good loca¬
tion for a hotel in the South, just mention
Griffin. «
