NotliwitUstanding the depression in the cotton goods trade of the world, the South is steadily push ing on in the building of new cot ton mills. Among the enterprises of this kihd now under way are twenty-three mills, costing $8,260,- 600. The average Republican majority in Ohio October elections, since 1856, has been 20,GOO. It wits a fraction short of 20,000 four years ago this month. The Democrats never have carried that State, in cither month, in any Presidential year since the rise of the Republi can party. One mistake made in Ohio was fatal to Democratic success. The Democrats charged and proved that Blaine was a liar and a cor rupt politician. This commended him to the Republicans, and they took him to their hearts. Had he been purer they would have loved him less. All good Democrats will regret | the defeat of Hon. Prank Hurd, ot Ohio. He was one of the most brilliant members of Congross, n patriot and a Democrat, whose loyalty and devotion have never been questioned. His presence and his voice will be mUscd in tbc counsels of the nation. There aro over 270 specimens of different kinds of wood being ex hibited nt the North Carolina State Fair, now in operation at Raleigh. All of these specimens came from the forest" of the old North Slate, and are indigenous to the soil. North Carolina is fa mous for nothing so much as the great variety of her wood. The pine and Us products have long been staple articles of commerce. The pine forests, however, have begun to feel the tax which the demands of tho world have put upon them. The cherry, walnut and other hard woods of the west- ern part of the State are also fa- miliar iu the lumber markets. But speaking of pine, Ueorgia cannot l>e surpassed in that line.

Speaking of railroads, that was a capital order which the general manager gave recently a conductor who had a distinguished party in charge. “Remember," said be, “that yon arc a special and have the right of way.

Twenty-four years ago ho vimcd he would never shave until a Demo cratic President was inaugurated, j His beard is over six feet long and sweep* the ground.

There is a consider able amount of civil business to be disposed of, and it will probably require fully two weeks to clear the dockets. There ore seventy- six old cases on the issue docket and tbiity-two new ones; there are sjx eases on the motion docket..and fourteen on the appearance docket. There are seventeen criminal cases on tbc docket where arrests have been made. Four defendants a e in jail and the remainder are out under bond. There are over one hundred cases in all on the crimi nal docket, many of which are of long standing, and the entry of “no arrest” appear on the docket. We are glad to say that crime is appa:ently on the wane in our county, and the grand jury will probably lind out but few criminal cases to investigate. An Industrious (lid Man. Mont Record Mr. Daniel Murra), of this coun ty, lather of J. B. Murray, who is about eighty-two years of sge, planted and cultivated this vear about two acres in cotton, and bas already picked 2,600 pounds of seed cotton. Mr. J. B. Murray has this week ginned ana packed a bale of the cotton, the fruits of the old man’s labor, and will enter it at the Georgia State Fair us competitor for the premium for the best hale of short staple cotton. The cotton was raised from the Jones improved seed. We hope that old Uncle Daniel, as he is called, may he so fortunate as to receive the premium. The Texas Stock Journal esti mates that there aro Ht.Pl nearly 80,000,000 acres of land in the State available for stock ranges. Much of the land that has been considered desert is being rapidly occupied for grazing purposes, the well borer easily supplying the de- flciency in water. With the intro duction of thoroughbred stock, which is constantly going on, tho calling ofherdn, regulation of in crease, better facilities lor trans portation and extension ol farming interests, it is difficult to estimate the stock producing capacity of the Slate. It is said that the ranges already occupied can be made to support double the present number of cattle and sheep. Texas should have 8,000,000 inhabitants and 30,000,000 head of stock in 1890.

OLD ESTABLISHED MERCANTILE HOUSES, WHOSE SOLVENCY WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOUNDED ON INItESTRUCTABLE ROCKS OF UNLIMITED CAPATAL AND UNQUESTIONABLE CREDIT, Tottered and Fell in a Day! Specially was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing manufacturers who had made up numerous stocks from materi als bought on credit. These manufacturers placed their faith on lively and profitable September trade, absolutely relying on it for funds to meet their maturing paper, which they had given for piece goods, but the trade did not come, the continuous A?nl^nm“rI% C nda[ 0 pri« f i n oh..»e“hsD vvarm weather and no customers cooked their “goose,” and there was nothing left for them to do but to fail and turn their goods over to an Assignee. It was bad for them, but it is in your power to make it good for you, for, as usual, when good goods are to be sacrificed we are always on hand. Our Mr. Joe Waxelbaum was there, and notwithstanding the fact that we were already prepared with a stock of Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars, we bought Thirty-Three Thousand more in Boys, Chil drens and Men’s Clothing, Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Fancy Goods, Corsets, etc., at prices varying from 30 to 60 per cent, of the actual value.
