There Ate very few towns which grow so fasttbftt they cannot cere for t ho people who move to It. Yet that Is precisely the condition of Amerlcus to-day, and blda fair to be her condition one year hence unless active measures are taken to provide houses for the hundreds who are moving here. For year a aud year« The Re- coupe it has talked for, and boomed and blowed, and advertised Amer lcus, aud during those years held, nn d address, its faith «n Amerlcus while others condemned her to the “demuitiou bow-wows,” or other classical places. That The Recouped was justified lu Its faith is evidenced by the great Influx of people lu the past twelve months. No place can become a great city uulcss It’s people will act together. To attract other people to it a place must be advertised, no matter bow, but advertised. Believing in this, Tub Recobder acted upon Its be lief, aud spent many hundreds of dollars of It’s owu montv in judio- ously placing advertising matter. In this respeot It waa liberally sup ported by tbs city council and the business men of Amerlcus. And, though few people may believe It, Ame/Icus Is yet reaping tho bene fits of this advertising. Advertis ing, whether of a town or a busi ness, to be elTeotivo, must bo done thoroughly, and must be kept up. You would not believe, If told once, that auothorclty was a bettor place —trllvtf In than Amerlcus. Certain ly not. But If you were told so onde a week or once a month, and proof of the fact fuinlshed you, lu spltoof your love for your own place, It would compel you to make comparisons. If the advertiser suc ceeds In getting you to visit his 4»lace, »«d can make a favorable impression,'half tho battle is won. The seed is sown—lime will do tho reaping and, ir the town has half what Is claimed for It, In another year or two yon w ill This is but an ^UamdttTdn of what advertising It must day, and week byjtelP^PTt’s claims must Keep these jfore the people—get them to visit you, treat them well, and time will do the rest. GOVERNOR NORTHEN. . Gov. Northen’s Inauguration was a most auspicious one, and his ad dress a plain aud practical state ment of what tho State most needs. That the farming portion of the people are aroused on the question of education l* evident, as iu every BETTER SCHOOLS. Thb Recorder Is pleased to see a disposition on the part of tbe Governor and the legislature to in crease the efficiency of thy public school system of the HtatO, Gov. Northen very pertiueully akysthat the public s-bools must be made more efficient, or they should be re manded to the case of private indi viduals. The fact is, the public school system of Georgia is a public shame. Tills very limited term and the poor pay of teachers bus made our public schools little more than ft farce. That the people are begluumg t<r realize this fact Is evidenced by tbe fact that already there h crease the term to six mouth*, atui .in the Senate a bill to lucre ish the term to eight months. Georgia has led all the other Southern States In progress, and it is to be hoped that she will come to the front Iu the matter of public schools (here is ohlt | 1 And uieru lu nothing Uko it.

From tho Athena Banner. The newspaper world Is now ag- j Hating the question of who will succeed dictator Reed as speaker, j At present there is no unanimity of j sentiment on Oils question, but the j major part of the democratio organs are favorable to Crisp, of Georgia. ^ He, wo believe, will be chosen to | preside over the legislative sessions, j having evinced parliamentary tact i ANNOUNCEMENTS. FOIl TAX RECEIVER. t CORONER. Ho proved himself able to cope j .. y f t |. with Reed Iu ills high-handed j measures, crushing despoti-m by j the weight of his determined per-j sonalily, aud surpassing the stub- | * ,r JJ born despot In the use of skillful i ^-r coni expedients. n» <iep We firmly believe that Crisp Is j auhject the choice of democratic sentiment ,l “" of the house as Ik stood during the past session, but its composition is so entirely different that it Is a dif flcult matter to determine who will occupy this honorable and coveted position. LITERARY NOTES. An article of much practlole value on “The Care of the Eyes In Youth,” by the well-known oculist, Dr. George 8. Norton, will appear in tho Supplement to Harper’s Young People for November 4th. Freedom Trlumphaut is the title of the fourth and final volume of Charles Carleton Coffin’s history of the civil war for young readers. It will be published In November by Harper and Brothers. Rudyard Kipling is the new star that Is at present attracting the gaze of the readihg world. A clever aud dfsoriminatlug essay upon this young genius and his work has been prepared by Julian Hawthorne for the October dumber of Lippiu- cott’s Magazine. FOR SHERIFF. First, that not one of the men whom the people of Georgia hon ored and trusted asftheir represent atives in cougress failed to condemn the aub-treasury bill as unwise, though In doing so-they condemned themselves, In most cases, to the loss of their valuable offices. Were they selfish enemies of the farmers! —Macon Telegraph. The Telegraph must be mistaken. Judge Crisp did not condemn the sub-treasury bill as unwise. FOR COUNTY TREASURER.
