The Recorder calls the atten tion of the public to the law card of Messri. Hudson A Blalock. This is a copartnership that has all the elements neoessary to make it one of the etrongest law firms In the State. C. B. Hudson has been for many years a practicing attorney, and for near eighteen years Solic itor-General of the Southwestern circuit. L. J. Blalock has been in the practice for a long time, and near eight years the Solicitor of Sumter county court. They are men of fine business attainments, having few equals in the profession, and if perseverance, enterprise and Intellect mean anything, then all the elements will be found In the two above named gentlemen. All they ask Is a trial and we do not hesitate to say they will give satisfaction wherever placed or wanted. The Macon Brewing Company and the the Moerleln Company, of Cincinnati, are having a big beer war In Brunswick, and the price I* down to )1 a keg. Americus sa loon men ahonld buy their beer in Brunawlok of these companies, in stead of the agencies here, If they want to get It cheap. COLUMBUS DISTRICT. J B MoGehee, presiding elder.

' As Mr. Glessner is absent in Asheville, N. C., attending the im migration convention, The Recob der takes the liberty of publishing the following: Georgia would be a heap better off it she had a few more Major W. L. Glessners. Such men are a groat help to the 8tate.—Darien Timber Gazette.] The Tlmee heart ily indorsee the two sentence* fore going. Major Glessner is one of the most valuable citizen* Georgia ever had.—Brunswick Times. Up to the hoar of going to preys, Senator Gordon had not Joined the Alliance. ABOUT AMERICUS. From the Augusta Chronicle. Americus secures the new rail road commissioner. There can no personal objection to Judge AI len Fort. He is s man of personal ability and character. The Chron icle preferred Judge Alex Erwin because of his experience in the delicate matters constantly recur, ring in that office and because believed that training and fairness should outweigh mere local and ge ographlcal considerations. There Is, however, a kind of pa tbetlc justice in awarding a place In the railroad commission Americus. That town has been the center of railriad agitation since 1870. The people of Sumter county were constantly atoute with President Wadley. Repeated ap peals were sent from the business men to the railroad authorities for justice, but the managers generally informed them that they were “looking after the interests of the Southwestern railroad and not Americus.’’ The people complained through their delegates in the coo stltutional convention that they were charged 10 cents more on the bale of cotton to Savannah than Al bany, which was thirty miles fur ther. The rates to New York showed like discrimination. Amer icus bad but one railroad and Al bany had three,and was then a com petiug point. But Americus pushed her agitation andthe delegate In the constitutional convention 1877, Dr. Cooper, was one of the staunchest supporters of the Toombs policy of regulating railroads. In the General Assembly of 1878— 70, Hon. Allen Fort was the Sumter representative. He was promt nently engsged in the preparation of the bill which finally created the railroad commission, and which has given so much relief to the peo ple of Georgia, and which law the people have never allowed to be amended. The wisdom of that act has been abundantly shown When the Olive bill threatened the consolidation of the railroad system in Georgia, the railroad leaders themselves were glad to seek pro tection under the shadow ofthe railroad commission. Americus furnished another prominent factor In the railroad ag itation when her representative in Congress took a prominent hand In forming the inter-state com, mercelaw. Judge Chas. F. Crisp, whom_ Judge Fort succeeded on the bench, was one of the most active members of Congress, who aided Judge Reagan in passing through the House of Congress the railroad commission bill. The fight which began iu the Georgia convention by Gen. Toombs was consummated by his old friend and ajsociate, Judge Reagan, In Con, gress; and the agitation of Dr, Cooper and Allen Fort was com, pleted by Charles F. Crisp. So the hand of Americus has been promt nent in all this business. PUBLIC SALE Of Groceries, Dry Goods. Hardware and General Merchandise.
