THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TlMES-RECORDER: ERIDAY, MAY 9, 1902,

HOSE [GERMANS FOR GEORGIA.
Seventeen members have been added
to the colony of Oermans in Glynn
county, Goorgia,which in rapidly being
helped through the land and industrial
department of the Southern Itailway.
These people are coming from a prov
ince in Southern Hussia wholly made
up of Germans, who were induced to
nettle in Russia during reign of Alex
ander I, but because of Russian op
pression in lato years they have grown
restive, aud they seek an asylum in
this country where each man who
works and is sober may soon acquire
a little home of his own. If those who
tome should prosper aud send back
encouraging words to the old country,
there will be tons of thousands of
families to come, and tho movement
would naturally extend to Germany it
self while thousands of Germans now
enduring the bard winters of the West
would naturally join their brothren in
the South. There is no telling to what
proportions this movement may grow,
says the Atlanta Constitution, and the
Glynn county authorities have decided
to do all in their power to aid in this
matter by having all the lauds about
their colony settlement drained bo as
to prevent sickness and fever during
the coming summer. These peoplo
have their own schools and their own
churches, and are apparently good-na'
tured and happy. They land in Bruns
wick in the evening from faraway Rus
sia, and the next morning by day-break
they are hard at work with boe and axe
cutting down trees and digging pal
uetto roots and preparing to raise a
crop.
THINKS JOHNSTON IS LEADING
Hon. Mark Johnston, who delivered
an address in Americus Tuesday night,

He linked Japan, China and Corea

there would be perceptible changes

the Christian people predominate the

RAISING CATTLE IN GEORGIA.
Georgia has the land, the grasses and
the climate that offer the lugest posit
ble advantages to those who go into
the busiuesB of raising beet cattle. The
experiments already making in that
line by some enterprising farmers prove
completely that there is an ever ready
market aud large profits for home-
raised beef. Really there is scarcely
any room for competition botween the
local producer and the Western packer.
Looking to the advantages the Georgia
raiser can command for less money and
with lees risks than the citizen of any
other section of the Union, there
sbonld be a speedy enlargement of na
tive production and tho advent of a day
not distant when a pound of Western
beef should not cross our Htate line fer
use on the table of Georgia homes.
This is a profitable field of enterprise
that should not be longer ignored or
neglected.—Atlanta Constitution.
school fund of the slate between the
whites and blacks according to the
taxes paid, respectively, by the two
races, and for the exclusion of North
ern school histories that are prejudicial
to the South from the schools of the
siate, aud giviug preference, as far as
practicable, to books by Southern an-
thors and by Southern publishers—the
stand taken by Dr. Johnston on these
fonr propositions, as set forth in his
platform, is making votes for him
throughout this part of the state.
CANDLER TO LEAVE ATLANTA.
When Gov. Candler steps down and
ont and Hon. Joseph Terrell takes his
placo as the state's chief executive, Mr.
Candler will go back to Gainesvil'e to
occupy bis new residence there and
will not become a citizen of Atlanta, ns
has been suggested. The Albany Her
aid alludes to the tendency of state
bouse officers to make tbnir borne in
the Capital City. The HerJtd says
“When a man gets elected to a state
bouse office in Georgia tbe part of tbe
state from which be hails losses a dis
tinguished citizen and Atlanta gain*
one. Whether it is an acquired taste
for savory smell of tbe fiesbpots or an
attachment that is formed for Atlanta
and Atlanta wsys, we know not; but
it seems to be trne that once a Geer
gian gets to roosting about tbe caoitol
he can never get entirely weaned away
from it.”
ed our safety is not great. Unless wo
proceed early we will have to conquer
at a heavier cost; the resistance will
be greater than that of the apostles.
"The work we fail to do today will
be a work done for the devil and
against Christ and the world in the
days to come. The work in other
foreign Acids Is not to lie considered
with China, with its teeming thou
sands of people with as great brains
as can be found. They will not take
tbe mere forms of civilization like the
people of Japan, but go to the root and
appropriate that which they believe
will assist them. If we allow them
in their present condition
ahead the people of China, Japan and
Corea will eventually make trouble
tor thc west. We of the west will suf,
fer not only from tbe reaction, but
from the reflex action in our own
land.”
GROWING IN STRENGTH DAILY
COTTON RICKING BY MACHINERY
The feat of picking cotton by ma
chinery is at laBt accomplished, and
the colored “field hand” further eman
cipated. It is claimed that a enooessfnl
cotton pioking machine will be oper
ated in Mississippi the oomlng season.
A contract for picking cotton by ma'
ehinery has aotually boon entered into
intnat state. Tbe Colnmbns Ledger de
dares that if the machine proves a suc
cess, it will mean a good deal for Mis
sissippi. In that state it has bean diffi.
calt in the past to get sufficient hands to
gather the cotton crop produced prompt
ly. The experiment will be watohed
with the keenest interest thronghont
the entire south.
Han. Joseph Terrell addressed the
voters of Monroe eonnty at Forsyth
yosterday, and this week will inan.
gnrate another winning campaign in
sonthwest Georgia. Mr. Terrell grows
stronger with the people every day,
and bis overwhelming victory at the
polls on June .Ith is generally conseded
in every section of Georgts. He will
speak at Conyers on Monday, Wash
ington on Tuesday, Blaekabear on
Wednesday, Guthbert on Thursday,
Bluffion on Friday, and Arlington on
Saturday.
The American naval officers who got
drank and attempted to clean ont tbe
Venice police force are to be released
from prison upon payment of some
$2,00*1 damages. Served them right.
Terrell ia not riding in a band wagonl

Two Vetsrans Die Suddenly.
Moncure, N. C.. May it.—George A.
Thompson, aged C8 years, a farmer
and an ex-confederate soldier, fell
(had Thursday. His funeral took
place yesterday and was largely at

friends. In the absence ot a preach
er. his neighbor and friend, Thomas
J. Poe. aged 70 years, also an ex-con

fell dead. There was considerabl ex

death.
LONG TALKS OF CABINET.
Former Secretary Does Not Anticipate
Any Immediate Change!.
New York, May 3.—John D. I-ong,
former secretary of the navy, who is
In this city, says he does not anticipate
any immediate changes in the presi
dent's cabinet.
"There has been more or less gos
sip," he said, "about Secretary Hay
and Secretary Hoot retiring. I think
they will remain. Secretary Hay has
been very successful. His services to
the country have been extraordinary,
and his administration of the state de
partment Whs been marked with many
brilliant achievements. Secretary Root
is a man of unusual ability and force."
■How is the navy getting along, as
compared with the navies of other na
tions?" he was asked.
"First rate. The appropriation bill
for the navy contemplates the building
of two battleships. This is not so
great a number as some of thy nations
are building, but it is keeping us along
with Germany."
As to his plans for the future, Mr,
I-ong said;
"I am going hack to Boston to re
sume the practice of law. I do not
expect to travel extensively for some
time. This is about the first time in 40
years that I could feel that there is no
demand upon my time.” •

Washington, May 2.—Attorneys for
John Celestln Landreau have filed

amounting to 115,000,000 promised by
that government to tils brother, J.
Theophile I-andreau, tbe original dls-

The Peruvian government obligated
Itself by rontrmet with the brothers to

the value of the guano discoveries so
made, not. however, to operate more

The principal obstacles to the prose
