GRIFFIN, GEORGIA, U S. A.
Griffin U the best and most promising little
i ty in the South. Its record for the past
ball decade, its many new enterprises in oper¬
ation, building and contemplated, prove thie
o lea business statement and notohyper-
olieal description.
During that time it Has built and put into
most successful operation a #100,000 cotton
actory and with this year started the wheels
of a second of more than twice that capital.
It has put up a large iron and brass foundry,
a fertiliser factory, an immense ice and bot¬
tling works, a sash an 1 blind factory, a
broom factory, opened up the finest granite
quarry in the United States, and now has
onr largp oil mills in more or less advanced
stages of construction, with an aggregate au¬
thorized capital of over half a million dollars,
ft is putting up the finest system of electric
gating Mat cau be procured, and has ap¬
plied for two: artera for street railways. It
has secured another railroad ninety miles long,
and While located on the greatest system in
the rtouth. the Central, has secured connec¬
tion with ite important rival, the East Ten¬
nessee, Virginia and Georgia. It has obtain-
d dlri.d. iudepAj I mt connection with Chat
1 auouga anil t he West, d will break ground
n a few days tor a fourth road, connecting
with a fourth independent system.
With its five wfeiteand four colored clmrcli
cs, it has recently completed a #10,000 new
Presbyterian church. It has increased depop¬
ulation by nearly one fifth. It has attracted
aroun»its borders fruit growers from nearly
every State in the Union, until it is now sur¬
rounded on nearly every side by orchards
and vineyards. It has put up the largest
ruit evaporators in the State. It is the home
of thegrape and its wine making capacity has
doubled every year. It has successfully in
auguruted 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 natuial 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 rolling country, 1150 feet
above sea level. By the, census of 1890, it
will have at alow estimate between6 000 and
7,000 people, and they are all of the right
sort—wide-awake, up to the times, ready to
welcome strangers and anxious to secure de-
sirablo settlers, who will not be any less wel
some if they bring money to help build up the
wn. There is abont only one thing we
eed bally }u*t now, and that is a big hotel
We have several small ones, but their accom
raodatlons are entirely too limited for our
usine s, pleasure and health seekig rfguests
If you see anybody that wants a good loca¬
tion for a hotel in the South, just mention
Griffin.
Griffin is the place where the Griffin News
s published—daily awd weqkly—the best news¬
paper in the Empire State of Georgia. Please
enclose stamps in sending for sample copies,
and descriptive pamphlet of Griffin.
This brief sketch is written April 12tli, 1889,
and will have to he changed in a few months
o embrace new enterprises commenced and
ompleted.
