Griffin is the best and most promising little
ity in the th. Its record for the past
half decade, its many new enterprises in oper¬
ation, building and contemplated, prove this
o he a business statement and not a hyper-
olical description.
During that time it has built and put into
most successful operation a f100,000 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,
n fertilizer factory, an immense ice and bot¬
tling works, a sash an! blind factory a
broom factory, opened np the finest granite
quarry in the United States, and now has
our large oil mills iu mors or less advanced
si ages of construction, with an aggregate au¬
thorized capital of over half a million dollars.
It is putting up the finest system of electric
ghting that can be procured, and has ap¬
plied for two arters for street railways. It
has secured another railroad ninety miles long,
and while located pH the greatest system in
the South, the Central, has secured connec¬
tion with its important rival, the East Ten-
nee see, Virginia and Georgia. It has obtain-
d direct indspeadent connection with Chat
tanooga and the Wt gt, d will break groun
n a few days fora fourth road, connecting
with a fourth independent system.
Withits five white and four colored church
es, it has recently completed a 110,000 new
l'reabyterian church. It has increased its pop¬
ulation by nearly one fifth. It has attracted
around its borders fruit growers from nearly
every Stats in the Union, until it is now sur¬
rounded on nearly every side by orcharde
and vineyards. It has put up the largest
ruit evaporators in the State. It is the home
of thegrape audits winemakingcapacity has
doubled every year. It has successfully in
augnrated a system of public Schools,, with a
seven years curriculum, second to none.
This is part of the record of a half deeade
and simply shows the progress of an already
admirable city with the natural ‘advantages
of having the finest, climate, rammer and
winter, iu 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 1800, it
will have at alow estimate bet ween G 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¬
