Col. B. J. Redding, director of the
form, called to pay
respects to the News a.vd fkw
and in conversation in re¬
to the recent contracts for new
at the farm made the fol¬
statement.
“It is entirely an unfounded idea
we wished to favor an Atlanta
in preference to any
On the contrary, we would
have preferred to let the contract
to a Griffin party, but among the
five bids—one from a Griffin firm—
we were obliged to select the only
one that came within the appropria¬
tion of five thousand dollars, the
others running way above that sum.
We advertised in the Griffin paper as
well as an Atlanta paper; perhaps
it might have been better to have
an extra set of drawings here,
but they were to be had by simply
dropping a postal card to Atlanta—
and Messrs. Henderson and Thicker
did get them that way.
“Our three families add twenty
souls to the population of the com¬
munity, and in every purchase that
we make for ourselves or for the
farm Griffin will be given the prefer¬
ence. I have made my home here
and hope that, all things being satis¬
factory, It will be permanent. It ta
my purpose to become identified
with the community, and I shall cer¬
tainly try to benefit it in every way
possible.
“It has never been my habit to pay
too much attention, to criticistams
upon my official conduct, but you
may publish os much of this conver¬
sation as you may think necessary
to put the matter in a proper light
to the citizens of Griffin.”
Mr. Redding spoke very candi dly
and sincerely, and left theimpression
that he meant all that he said. We
know from the past that he has al¬
ways been a friend of Griffin and he
maybe depended upon as a true citi¬
zen of Spalding County.

A Novel Parade.
Sells Brothers and Barrett with
their united shows will introduce
more hovel features in their street
parade this year than all other shows
in America combined can produce.
Each of these shows was fully equip¬
ped for th® tenting season, and in¬
tended to tour tjie country separate¬
ly, but, by has/ever a stroke of genius, more
bold than before been at¬
tempted, they Sarranged to travel and
exhibit in conjunction. It was a
,
difficult task to find room on their
sixty long cars for the two shows,
and in order to add a brand new fea¬
ture never before introduced in this
country, ten new cars, eachjsixty-five
feet in length, had to be built. The
feature alluded to above is the Chil¬
dren’s Dream of Fairyland, exempli¬
fied with many golden chariots, rep¬
resenting the priusipal features of
fairy lore—among which is Robinson
Crusoe, Old Mother Goose, Cinderella,
Blue Beard, Little Red Riding Hood,
Santa Claus and the Old Woman
Who Lived in a Shoe. These golden
chariots drawn by ponies, together
with the miniatm-e Tally Ho coach
with monkey footmen and attend¬
ants, will appear in the parade.
Over fifty cages two droves of camels,
two herds of elephants, many bands
of music, and hundreds of other fea¬
tures will be worth going many miles
to see, and is only a partial index of
the wealth of wonder displayed under
the huge canvasses. It requires fou r
extra large locomotives to haul this
immense show upon the levelest rail¬
roads. This grand parade will ap¬
pear at about 10 o’clock on the
streets of Griffin Thursday, Oct 3d.
