The Sea Island cotton planters of
South Carolina, who were to hold a con
vention last Thursday with a view to
forming a combination to prevent the
sale of Sea Island cottonseed, decided at
that meeting that it would bo unwise to
attempt to do this, as it was not deemed
giracticablo.
The state is now confronted by with
the frightful possibility of an extra sess

have to suffer thus?

SOLID INDUSTRIAL GROWTH IN THE
SOUTH.
The Manufacturers’ Record, of Balti
more, October 17, in reviewing the in
dustrial progress of the south, says:
“The past week has been a very active
one in southern development, and the
Manufacturers’ Record has very rarely
had to report a wider range of indus
trial advancement than for the last seven
days, even though the financial world is
not yet looking for investments In new
ventures to any great extent. Despite
this, however, the south is pushing
ahead and rapidly organizing new man
ufacturing and mining enterprises to
utilize its vast resources. This growth
is not confined to any one state, nor to a
few industries only, but. takes in the
whole south and covers almost every
line of manufacturing, including fur
naces, foundries, cotton mills, coal
mines, iron-ore mines, ice factories,
water works, electric-light works, wood
working enterprises, tobacco factories,
fertilizer factories, breweries, phosphate
mines and works, etc.
The leading event of the week is the
announcement of the final closing of the
sale of 150,000 acres of mineral and
timber land, including coke ovens, lum
ber mill, etc., In Eastern Kentucky to a
Belgian syndicate for $5,000,000, a part
of which, it is understood, goes into the
opening of new coal mines, the building
of coke ovens, furnaces, saw-mills, etc.
A dispatch from London says that the
directors of the Middlesborough Town
Company have voted $1,250,000 to be ex
pended ig pushing the enterprises under

Tenn.; tobacco factory, Danville. Nego
tiations are pending for beet-sugar fac
tories, a new industry for the South, at
Staunton, Va., and Martinsburg, W. Va.
Such is the record for ono week. It
docs not include all that has been done
In that time, nor does it take account of
the progress of enterprises previously
mentioned. It is simply a brief summa
ry of the more important concerns re
ported in this week’s issue of the Manu
facturers’ Record, and of which full de
tails are given, showing that these are
uot simply enterprises that aro talked of
but that they have all been organized.
It is an eucouraging exhibit of the week’s
work, and indicates how solidly the
South is growing, and how groat will be
the activity when tho full benefit of this
year’s enormous crops is felt next spring
after the wheat and corn and cotton
which have been produced have been
marketed and business of all kinds has
receivod tho impulse that must inevita
bly come then.”
The success attained by Dr. Keely in
his treatment of inebriates deserves, per
haps, to rank as the greatest medical
triumph of tho age. The Keeley treat
ment seems to be as effectual a cure for
the liquor and opium habits as Jcnner’s
treatment is effectual as a preventive of
small-pox. There are objections to vac
illation, but none have been urged
against the use of hi-chlorido of gold, ex
cept that it has failed in the hands of
ther physicians to accomplish tho re- j
suits expected of it. But this remedial j
I agent is not the only one employed by !
j I)r. Keeley. He has secrets that he im- j
parts to no one except the chemist he
[employs. Ilis system of treatment is
practiced by agents of his in other states,
and he supplies them with all the modi-j
eines they use.
THE CHURCH OR THE STATE?
The pope, in a note to the powers,
says that the recent Parteon disorders
were of extreme importance, and insists
that it is impossible for both the Italian
government and the papacy to remain in
Rome.
The establishment of King Victor Im
manuel’s throne in Rome was in effect
the destruction of the temporal power
of the church; and while a show of inde
pendence has been maintained, the fact
is that the pope has for years been a
prisoner, whose power outside spiritual
matters was limited to the issue of pro-
nunciamentos against the Italian govern*
ment for its usurpation of his authority.
The pope is a statesman of high order,
and no one recognises better than he
that even in Italy the doctrine of the
separation of church and state is too
strong to be successfully combatted; and
that if the church is to continue to claim
temporal power, it must be done outside
the seat of government of the king who
disputes the claim.
The question of the removal of the
Holy See from Italy becomes daily one
of more pressing importance; but no sat
isfactory solution seems to be at hand;
for while Spain is the most thoroughly
Catholic country in the world, and has
expressed a strong desire to have the
pontifical throne established in her bor
ders, there is yet so strong a develop
ment of anti-monarchical spirit there
that Spain may not even preserve her
status as a Kingdom many years, much
less yield her autonomy to the temporal
sceptre of the Pope.
It is freely predicted that the nine
teenth century will soe Spain a republic
with Castelar her president, and under
such conditions there would of course
be no room for papal authority in tem
porary matters.
To the broader-minded Catholics it
looks like the temporal power of the
church would have to go before tho on
ward march of republicanism; and it is
now a much mooted question whether
the church could not enhance its spir
itual power by relinquishing altogether
the dogma of temporal authority, which
while potent and oven useful in former
ages, can no longer regulate the affairs
of modern constitutional governments.
If the Pope would gain his consent to
forego the claim of temporal power, and
move the Holy See to the United States,
it is believed that one of the strongest
coup d’ etats of modern history would
be enacted; and that church put upon a
higher plane than it has occupied since
Apostolic days. How would Atlanta do
as a location for tho Holy See?
THE TWO CANDIDATES.
The announcement that Judge CrUp
of Georgia has gone to Ohio to support
Governor Campbell will add considera
bly to public interest In the momentous
contest that la going on in that state.
The interest in Judge Crisp will not bo
due merely to the fact that he is a new
and conspicuous figure in national poli
tics, but more to the rivalry for the
speakership which exists between him
and Mr. Mills. The Texas statesman
has won a great deal of prestige by the
excellent work he has done in Ohio,
while tho noted Georgian lias been
in a measure lost sight of. Now he will
come to the front again, and the public ment
will be enabled to judge how ho com
pares with Mr. Mills as a stump speaker,
if not as to his qualifications for the
sreakersldp.
It Is questionable if it be good policy
to bring such noted southerners as Mills
and Crisp into direct antagonism witli
the Ohio republicans. Still the best
means of breaking down sectional prej
udice is to bring the people of the sec
tions together. Even tho bringing to
gether of the northorn and southern ar
mies caused tho men of the North and
South to respect each other more than
before. Bui tho Ohio republicans are
notoriously unscrupulous, and if they
think they can mako capital out of it
they will raise a woful howl about the
invasion by southern politicians. Even
the election of a southerner for speaker
will be seized upon as a retext for stir
ring up what sectional prejudice there Is
in the North. Happily that most unpa
triotic spirit is becoming beautifully less.
At any rate it is timo for the people of
the South to stand by the rights to which
their numbers and intelligence entitle
them.—Jacksonville Times Union.
Mb. O. K. Latham, of Staunton, Va.,
a gentleman of considerable wealth,
formerly of Chicago, has offered to the
Farmers’ Alliance of Augusta county,
Va., to build a beet-sugar factory with
a capacity of from 150 to 250 tons of
beets a day, provided the farmers of that
county will plant not less than 1,500
acres In beets. Mr. Lapham also agrees
to furnish the seed and the fertilizers re
quired, and take his pay in beets.
The Tribune-of-Rome is as outspoken
on many questions as tho Sparta Isli
inaelite. On tho pension bill iu the ley
islature it says: “That attempt to give
a pension to every individual Confeder
ate soldier in Georgia was an outrageous
piece of legislation. It was simply an
attempt on the part of the “03 and a nig
ger” to make amends to the people of
Georgia, and especially to the old sol
diers, for the brutal treatment of them
in refusing to accept the Confederate
Soldiers' Home. But it didn't work.
The bill was killed, and with it the men
who turned their backs on the Confeder
ate veterans.
The Manufacturer’s Record says:
The Berner bill, which recently passed
tho Georgia house of representatives,
lias been defeated in tho senate. Geor-
;ia is to be congratulated that her sena
tors have thus shown their wisdom in
defeating a measure which would have
proved of great injury to the whole
State by seriously crippling all of its
railroads. Instead of fighting railroads
as some of the Southern States are con
stantly doing, it would be tho part of
wisdom if they would givo every possi
ble encouragement to railroad builders
and operators. The South needs more
railroads and more capital, and it can
only get them by fair and liberal treat
ment.”
GONE HOME.
Here is how the Atlanta Herald turns
loose the vials of its wrath upon the late
unlamented:
“The Legislature is going home.
“Going home, to meet the wrath of
Georgia taxpayers.
“Going home, to preach economy in
the knowledge of their own wasteful ex
travagances.
“Going home, to account for their
failure to accept a home that was dona
ted for the old soldier.
“Going home, to come in contact with
a co n stituency that has suffered by their
representation.
“Going homo, to hear the solemn pro
tests of a great people against a record
ol the most wasteful misuse of public
funds.
“Going home, to listen to the tale of
woe of a tax-burdened people whom
they have encumbered by extravagant
expenditures.
“Going home, to explain why in the
face of their boasted economy they have
made the taxes of Georgia higher than
they have ever been before.
“Going home, to face the condemna
tion that justly awaits them for being
parties to the most outrageous scenes
that have ever brought disgrace upon a
legislative assembly.
“Going home, struggling under the
most replete record of legislative useless
ness that has ever signalized the delib
erations of a body of public servants in
the history of the state.
“Going home, laden with free passes
in one pocket, and mileage allowances
in the other, when they had an opportu
nity to enact a law against the accept
ance of such hampering courtesies.
Going home, to answer why they
voted $400,000 to the widows of ex-Con-
federates, when $200,000 and $15,000 a
year to sustain a home for the penniless
survivors of that cause, was what the
people demanded.
Going home, this twin brother of the
billion-dollar congress, to be buried be
neath a swelling tide of popular indigna
tion.
“Going home! God pity them! May
such a body never assemble again.”
THE TRAMMELL SUBSTITUTE.
The following is a correct version of
the now famous Democratic resolution.
The substitute offered by Representative
Trammell to the Sibley resolution which
was designed to force the House of Rep
resentatives to indorse the Ocala plat
form was badly marred in the first pub
lication of It by the Atlanta papers.
There was a most important omission
in that report, and one which entirely
changed the meaning and intent of the
author of the substitute. In the original
were these words: “and complained of
by the Democratic party.” These words
were omitted in the first publication.
Here is the correct version of the substi
tute:
"Resolved by the House of Representa
tives, the Senate concurring, that our Sena
tors and Representatives In Congress be, and
they are hereby requested to use their influ
ence and votes to secure legislation which
will correct the evils complained of by the
National Farmers Alliance and Industrial
Union In convention at Ocala, Fla., and
complained of by the Democratic pnrty, es
pecltlly tho*»e that re I at- to the pr-sent

The prohibition business has got the
tobacco worms on the run; and now tea
and coffee are to be laid out. Here is
the latest development of science on the
the bill of the supposed harmless bever
ages that we drink: “The case of Dr.
Fownos of New Yoak, a prominent phy
sician who died from the effects of strong
coffee, token in immense quantities, is
attracting general attention. It is prob
ably tho first case on record in which
this beverage has caused death, and the
interest of physicians is correspondingly
awakened. The effects of tea and cof
fee. unlike those of alcohol, are not in-
stontaneous, and their results are not
easily traceable to the proper cause.
People who uso those beverages to an
excessive extent are poisoned without
realizing the fact. They are aware that
something is ailing them, but the appa
rently innocent drinks in which they so
freely indulge are tho last things in the
world to which they attribute their
trouble.”
PARTON, THE HISTORIAN.
The death of James Parton, the histo
rian, removes a prominent literary char
acter from life. His lives of Greely,
Aaron Burr, Andrew Jackson, and other
prominent Americans were works of su
perior merit. His most pretentious work
was his Life of Voltoise recently pub
fished. His wife was the well-known
“Fanny Fern,” who was no less well
known in literary circles than her hus
band.
Parton was commissioned a few years
•ago by the Harpers to write a life of
Washington, that was regardless of ex
pense, to he the greatest and most accu
rate and reliable history of the father of
his country ever written. Parton went
to Virginia, and after months of careful
investigation of letters and other volu
minous data about Washington, he re
turned to the Harpers and threw up his
commission, explaining to these aston
ished publishers that if he wrote a
truthful history of Washington and the
Harpers printed It, both writer and pub
lishers would be mobbed by the Ameri
can people.
lie said that Washington’s private cor
respondence showed him to be a man of
such loose moral character, that the
shock to popular sentiment would be too
great; and that the actual truth could
not be told to a people who had been
taught to revere him as a model man in
all respects.
The Harpers were satisfied that Par-
ten’s report was reliable; and so tho
great life of Washington remained un
written.
THE ABLE ASSISTANT,
In a recent number of the New York
Journalist that paper takes the ground
that the shears are quite as important at
times as the quill. It says:
“A good many people do not know
that an editor’s selections from his con
temporaries are quite often the best test
of his editorial ability, and that the
function of the scissors is not merely to
fill up vacant spaces, but to reproduce
the brightest and best thoughts and the
most attractive news from all the source*
at the editors command. There are
times when the editor opens his ex
change and finds a feast for eyes, heart,
ana soul. The thoughts of his ccatem-
porary glow with life. He wishes his
readers to enjoy the feast, and ho lov
ingly takes up the scissors and clips and
clips, and sighs to think that his space
is inadequate to contain all the treasures
prodigally spread before him. A/tcr
all the true test of a newspaper’s real
value is not the amount of original mat
ter it contains, but the average quality
of all the matter appearing iu its col
umns, whether original or selected.”
A cable to the New York Herald
from China says that the Russians have
invaded Chinese territory. A frontier
officer at Chang reports that he re
cently met a Russian expedition descend
ing the Alai plateau, and that lie pro
tested against this invasion of Chinese
territory, but the Russians, being in
greater force than the Chinese, disre
garded the protest and continued their
march. One division of Russians pro
ceeded to Alicliar, in the Pamir territo
ry, and another division marched toward
tho Groat Pamir territory. The Novoe
Vremya, the Russian government organ
says that a meeting between the Rus
sians and the British in Pamir was inev
itable, adding: “British incursions and
Afghan and Chinese raids, violating the
conventions forbidding them access to
Pamir, now make it imperative to deter
mine the exact frontier. Russian diplo
macy would find no difficulty in estab
lishing suzerian rights over the terri
tory.”
A COTTON FACTORY.
What step do our people next p ropo
to take to promote the growth and pro?
perity of Americus? What about tt,
cotton factory that has been discmJI
off and on for two years? Why s jj 0uld
it not now bo pushed through? c
any thing be done that will pay a (, ette °
return on the inrestment and turn more
money loose in this community?
Here are some figures that are worn
considering:
A pound of cotton that costa
eight to nine cents makes four yardsTf
osnaburgs or chocks that sell for eigbj
to twelve cents per yard, or a value ere
ated in manufacturing of 23 to to cents
per pound. This margin goes to
labor, and thus build up trade, pay
rent expenses, etc., and pay a dividend
on the capital.
Even if the investment paid no direct
dividends the merchants of Americus
could afford to build a cotton factory for
the increased volume of trade that the
one thousand more people brought here
would create. A few shares each by all
the merchants of Americus would do
the work, to say nothing of investments
by capitalists, for it is well known that
properly managed, cotton manufactur
ing right in the field is a very profitable
business.
Let’s have a cotton factory!

ootl lm
Editor Cuuistophkk, of Montezuma,
who is now publishing an out-and-out
third party paper, is very much outraged
that the Berncr-Smith bill was defeated,
and he uses strong language on tho ac
tion of tho Sonate. Ho says: “How
much money did it take to briho tho
Senate and kill the Smith substitute? If
not bribed, every member of the Senate
who voted against it swore to a lie.
They swore they would enforce the con-
■tltution, and they failed to do it."
AecoitMNti to the Washington (Ga)
Gazette the first two cotton factories in
Georgia wero built iu 1811, and ono was
in that county. It was called Bolton's
factory, though that was not the charter
name. It was on Rocky creok, within a
few yards of what is now Simpson's
mll'.ri. It was of stone, and Mr. Simpson
has under his mfil-huuse a part of the
stone arcli over tho door. A part of tho
name Bolton is easily read, ami the fig
ures 1811 plainly remain. Mr. Bolton, a
Savannaii man of that noted rich and
aristocratic family, was chief stock
holder. The financial trouble caused by
tlm war of 1812 caused the failure of
tins factory. In the old file of tho Ga
zette of 1810 the factory property is ad
vertised for sale.
Thk Federal crop report for October
indicates that the cotton crop will be
smaller than that of last year, hut by
how much it would be hazardous to pre
dict from existing conditions. The crop
is late, aud the chances are against a
repetition of tho long and favoroble
season that made the phenomenal yield
of 1800. The country is in an excellent
condition to stand a smaller production
than that of last year, and as producers
have been complaining of the very low
prioes they will be well satisfied with a
decreased crop.
Ax organized effort is under way
among the farmers to secure from con
gress froo mail service in country towns.
The Farmors’ Alliance, Patrons of Hus
bandry and other orders aro canvassing
tho matter. Letters aro being written
to congressmen in favor of tho projoct,
and petitions to congress for free deliv
ery are being circulated in many parts
of tlie country. The farmers assert that
a daily mail delivery at the door will add
perceptibly to tho money value of thoir
farms, and will he worth still more bo-
cause it will keep them in touch with
tho markets and tho outside world and
divest farm life of its isolation and mo
notony. Farmers aro writing to tho ag
ricultural press that this convenience
would enable them rpiite generally to
take a dally paper as well as to subscribe
for tho local papers more liberally.
Thk Pall Mali Gazette, referring to
tlie appointment of Right lion. Arthur
J. Balfour, chief secretary of Ireland,
as first lord of tlie treasury, and, there
fore, as conservative leader iu the House
of Commons in succession to tlie Right
Hon. William Henry Smith, says: “The
appointment is no bad tiling for tho op
position. Wo prefer to meet fighting
men. It will be nothing hot a boon to
tlie liberals to have opposed to thorn a
man specially identified with coercion
in its most defiant form.”
A Kittle Fatherly Advice.
“If ever you marry,” said an old gen
tleman to his son, “lot it be a woman
who has judgment enough to superin
tend tlie getting of a meal, taste enough
to dross herself, prfdo enough to wash
her face, and sense enough to uso £>r.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription whenever
she needs it.” The experience of tlie
aged has shown tlie “Favorite Presciip-
tion" to be the best for tho cure of all
female weaknesses and derangements.
Good sense is shown by getting tho rem
edy from, your druggist, and using It
whenever you feel weak and debilitated.
It will invigorate and cannot posaibly do
harm.
