Many of our people are too busy to give much thought to public affair* just now, unless their attention is called to some special matter. Therefore, The Times-Becohder assumes the duty this morning of saying to the people of Amer icas that a vast deal depends upon what yon are going to do at the primary elec tion.* Three aldermen are to be chosen to serve two years. Hare you thought bow much depends on a proper selec tion f Your property, your business, all your local affairs will be regulated and con trolled largely by the three men whom you select, as they constitute half the power of your city government. Don’t make the mistake of supposing it ie a matter of little importance who is selected. Discuss it freely among yourselves, and have some definite plan mapped out before election day comes. If you mako a mistake now you can’t remedy it in two years. You want the very best men in Ameri- cu* for these places; men of wisdom, experience and conservatism. The primary system perfectly enables you to select such men; but in order to prevent too much “scattering,” and to conceutratc your votes upon a few men who are specially fitted, and who have the time and are willing to make the sacrifice to give the people efficient ser vice, you should talk the matter over together, and announce right away such names aa seem to meet the approval of most of the voters and tax-payors. ' Let certain good men be talked, and their consent gained to serve the public; then announce their names and work for their election. Dear in mind that the very men who are least anxious for the places are most likely to be the very men yon need. Don’t leave this question to take care of itself, and then perhaps find when too late that you have neglected your duty as a citizen, and injured ,’yourself as a tax-payer. Give the publio needs a few day* of your time right now; it will be to your interest to do it The Newport Newt (Va) Sun rep^^l that the rush of eoal and grain to 1^9 place is beyond the power of the Chess' peaks A Ohio Ballroad to handle. Eighteen hundred carloads of grain have. It is said, been engaged for ship ment to Europe via that port.' This la the business which the Richmond Ter minal says It proposes to give to Savan nah and Brunswick over its lines; and for this same business the Savannah, Americua A Montgomery railroad will, In connection with the Louisville A Nashville and tfee Kansas City, Memphis A Birmingham roads, become a live oompetitor in the early future, link in the line between Louisville and Kansas City and Savannah and Bruns wick, there is an enormous business in store for the Savannah, America* A Montgomery. The Times-Kecoudeb approved the aetien of Govornor Northern In re-ap pointing the old board of trustees of the lunatic asylum, and remarked that the Governor took no stock in the talk of mismanagement. .The Columbus . En- qnirer-Sun erroneously construes this re mark as applying to Its late artlolea on the asylum question. Such waa not the Intent of this paper. The reference was to the talk which circulated around the Legislatu.e. The Enquirer-Sun's arti cles contain no reflection upon the board of trustees. The Crawfordville Democrat, one of the best equipped country weeklies in the State, can be bought at once for a very reasonable sum, either all cash or on installments to good parties. The proprietor has offers that he must accept or reject by December 25, 1891. The paper can be bought very reasonable at , once. It is a good chance for the right young man. Address C. G. Moore, Crawford, or Crawfordville, Ga. Don't scatter your shot at the pri mary, Find out whom your neighbors want, and agree upon some good men with them. If yon are not careful some man whom the majority at the people do not want may be nominated by the concentrated action of his friends, while your scattering votes nnd lack of con centrated action may put better men In in the rear. hereditary genius. The theory of hereditary genius, espe cially in military ami State matters, has long been held by students of history. Spencer's position that man comes into thia world a bundle of inherited capaci ties and inclinations, and developed by circumstances, ha* proven Itself true to close observers. Tslue, in his recent work on French history, has taken this Idea in all ita meaning in bis accounting for that anomaly of modern history— Napoleon Bonaparte—tracing bis ances try back through a long line of fierce feuds aud bloody scenes in bis native Island to the fountain head of his faml ly, Italy, and there finding In the Italian character of the middle ages the true ex planatlon of his nature, which had for centuries been carried latent in the blood until circumstances suddenly developed It In all Its intensity. Thinkers and investigators are also beginning to appreciate the fact that the commission of crime is the result of he redity, especially the crimes of violence and theft. In fact, it Is just ss natural for some people to steal and kill as It Is for a cat to catch a mouse; and that hereditary inclinations are largely restrained by few; and to some extent In higher wallu of life by education and surroundings. When the tendency to kill or steal ia unusually displayed, a good judge of physlogomy or cranlology, can read It just as distinctly in the shape of the head and features as If It were stamped in actual lettcra upon the face. , DIRECT FOREIGN TRADE. The Manufacturer’s Record, of Balti more, of November 21, In reviewing the Industrial progress of the South, says: “The broadening out of Southern ad vancement is Illustrated this week In the official announcement of the inaugura tion of fonr regular European steamship lines from Newport News—the first reg ular lioea to Europe from any port south of Baltimore—whleh must mark tho be ginning of an ever increasing direet for eign trade. It is not simply intended that these steamers shall take outward cargoes, but that the import business shall be worked up with a view to bring ing in foreign goods for Western distrib ution. Arrangements have already boen made for loading about 20 steamers on these four lines before the end of the year, and heavy contracts have been made for the shipment of Western prod ucts—grain, flour provisions, etc. The practical Inauguration of these Hues through the efforts of tho Cbosapoake A Ohio railroad, will necessarily force other Southern railroad systems reaching the Atlantic and Gulf porta to take steps to secure the establishment of foreign steamship lines. Thus, while the low price of ootton Affects for the time being the business Interest* of the South, there Is a steady advancement In general development that will add greatly to the prosperity of this whole section." THE GIRL'S INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL. The Times.Recqrder publishes very interesting letter this morning from Miss Jolla Montgomery Crowell, a niece of Mr. John R. Shaw, written from Mil ledgevlllc, where abe Isa student. The newness of tbe enterprise has so prevented the general publio from being ss well posted as It should be regarding tbe merits of this industrial school for girls, and Miss Crowell's letter will be rend with pleasure for this reason. There should be a dozen girls there from Sumter county, a* this I* an instl- tntion that merits the heartiest moral support and patronage of all. It would be a good Idea for the friends of female eduoatloa to act upon the re quest made by this young lady in tbe matter of contribution* of books and other literature to thelUbrary of this col lege. Almost everybody can spare a volume from their libraries, or buy a good book and tend it there; and The Times-Recorder hopes a generous pub lic wilt not neglect thia opportunity of helplog forward the cause of education In the way suggested. Jl'DGK W. H. FISH. This gentleman cornea to Americua this week to bold bis first court In Sum ter county, and will hereafter make Americus bis permanent home. Few judges hare mvde better records upon their first round than has Judge Fisb; and his ability, both aa a jurist and a disciplinarian, has been most marked from tbe very first day of bis active labors. His presence would be an acqniiltion to any community, and Ameriou* is to be congratulated that he has determined to cast hla future lot as a citizen with us. The Timer-Recorder extendi to him a mozt cordial welcome, both as a man and a judge, and'fee lz that in so doing It but convoys the sentiments of every per son in the community. Traveler* may learn a lesson from Mr. C. D. Cone, a prominent attorney of Parker, Dakota, who says: “I nr leave borne without taking a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy with me, and on many oc casions have ran with it to the relief of some sufferer and have never known It to fait For sal* by W.
