Newnan Herald: “It is hard work

your town to make a showing before
the world, and attract people to it
you must make a display of your
business through the columns of
local papers. Every dollar spent in
this way is a good advertisement
for the town, and a paying invest¬

new enterprises and industries in

tion may be increased, and steady

- ITEMS AND IDEAS.
Not Altogether News, But Possibly
Just an Interesting.
The pfist week has seen the subscrip¬
tion to the cotton compress more
than completed, and other parties
still anxious to take stock. Col.
Boyd, who has so well managed the
matter, says that he wanted to see
just as much foreign capital brought
in as possible and still have the
majority of the stock held here.
There are plenty of other projects,he
in which home capital can find
Really, it is astonishing even to
those who have kept track of Grif
fin's business the past few years to
see how much capital, in amounts ol
more or less size, is seeking profit¬
able investment. As an instance,
there are dozens oi demands lor the
Griffin Savings Bank stock, which
will not all be paid up yet in seven
years; but there is none on the mar¬
ket,
Here is where a live Board oi Trade
could do good work. The business
men oi the town would have a
chance to discuss various projects
and needs of the town in which capi¬
tal could be prdfltably invested. All
the new enterprises thus started
would not only help the investors,
but help every other project and ad¬
vance the progress of the place with
accumulated force. Nothing helps
along a progressive town more than
an active Board of Trade.
As long as we have no Board of
Trade, it is well that the Grantland
Club should he kept up, and we hail
its new life with gladness. There is
no other place where a citizen can
carry a friend, and as none have
that privilege except members, the
membership should be largely in¬
creased. Without the club there
would have been no place to carry
the Ohio crowd, just as it has been
the only place of entertainment on
previous occasions.
Two Northern gentlemen werre
qui e tly looking over the town the
past week for a site for a $50,000
hotel. They have gone iurther on
their tour of observation, and may
er may not return.
*
Messrs. Aycock and J. A. Brooks
on yesterday received by mail their
leters patent on their wonderful
blind stile boring machines. The
manufactory for the making of these
machines should not by any means
be allowed to be put up anywhere
but in Griffin. It is a Griffin enter¬
prise and here it must be kept.
T he old saying “opposition is the
life oi business” has not been sus¬
tained in one instance at least. Since
the introduction of Dr. Bull’s Cough
Syrup been dead all other cough remedies have
stock.

THE ONLY THING THAT WILL
SATISFY GHIFFlN.
A Petition to President Alexander
That Was Unanimously and
Readily Signed.
Griffin wants a union car shed!
Anything would be better than onr
present passenger accomodations,
but there is no reason why we should
not have such a structure as will be
of ornament and benefit both to the
railroads and to the city.
The following petition was circula¬
ted on Friday and yesterday and
was signed by every business man
who could be found on a rapid tour.
Many more names can be obtained
verybudy in Griffin and neighbor¬
hood, if necessary—but the signers
include the most prominent persons
of the business and trading public of
Griffin. This petition was forwarded
yesterday: |
Griffin, Ga., March 14,1890.
To Gen. E. P. Alexander, President
Central Railroad and Banking Co
of Georgia, Savannah, Ga.
Dear Sir— We. the undersigned
citizens of Griffin, Georgia, Railroad, and
patrons of the Central beg
to state that we have received with
profound pleasure inadequate the assurances
that onr present passen¬
ger accommodations on your road
are soon to that be such greatly improved.
Realizing and improvement
would be permanent must suffice
for the needs of Griffin for many
years to come, we would respectful¬
ly askthat you give the matter
your best attention, and it you can
tion possibly that do so, erect grant this suitable our union peti¬
shed rather you than a simply
car a pass¬
enger depot, however commodious
the latter might call be. attention In support the of
this request, we to
many passenger trains on three dif¬
ferent railroads connecting here and
allwneeting on your right of way,
with the strong probability that a
fourth will soon be added to the
number; to the growing importance
of Griffin iu many ways, all tending
to increase travel; and to the fact
that as the principal place between
Atlanta ana Macon, embracing a
hundred miles of your road, .it will
naturally soon outgrow any less ac¬
commodations than the ones we
petition This petition for. respectfully
is most
submitted, and if granted will meet
with a grateful appreciation that
will be felt
ers.
An immense sum was a few days
ago appropriated by the Richmond
Terminal Company for a new car
shed in Atlanta, whose needs are not
as great nor so sore, considering
present facilities, as those of Griffin^
Iu proportion to cost of the two
suitable structures, Griffin does
equally as much if not more passen¬
ger business, and we hope that these
points will be duly considered.
Griffin is a place of importance
and daily becoming of more impor¬
tance. If the Central railroad will
help in our progress it will simply be
helping itself.
We are determined that
when yon think ol Shoes,
Schenerman & White’s
stock will also be suggest¬
ed.
A Clever Citizen Dead.
Samuel F. Gray, a prominent citi¬
zen of this county, died Friday even¬
ing, and will be bnried today at 10
o’clock at the family burying ground
near his late residence. He died of
of that incurable malady, consump¬
tion, with which he had been afflicted
for several years. He has been a res¬
ident of this county for many years
and his plantation in Africa district,
where he lived and died, was at one
time probably the largest cotton
plantation in the county. He was a
very quiet, unpretentions man, a
good citizen and was kind hearted
and generous and probably bad as few
and several children to mourn his
loss. He was a member of the Ma¬
sonic lodge in this city and will be
buried by the fraternity, who will go
up there this morning. Sometimeago,
foreseeing that his end was ap-
in a casket made of Georgia pine, he
had one manufactured, which was
handsomely built and trimmed by
prominent firms in this city, and in
this casket his body will be laid to
ite last restjng place. He was be¬
tween fifty-five and sixty years of
age. Peace to his ashes.
