The Marietta and North Ga.
Railway Company will soon build
a 17-mile branch road from Mariet¬
ta to connect with the Ga. Pacific
at Austclle.
Notwithstanding .ill this talk
about the high tariff, the "necessa¬
ries of life,” with one or two excep¬
tions, were never cheaper or easier
fo*- the poor class to procure than
At the present time. Everything
is cheaper and wages are higher,
and we see no reason to complain
that the high tariff is ruining the
poor people,
The attention of Northern capi¬
tal is being turned in the direction
fo the South. It is natural that it
should be so. The South is rich
in minerals, in metals and coal;
her soil and climate are admirably
adapted to farming and mining;
her endless water power and valua¬
ble forests will make her the
future manufacturing section of
the country. All she needs is de¬
velopment, and now that capital
is being attracted by the greatness
of her resources she is making rap¬
id progress in that direction.
Nowhere in the world are the la¬
boring classes better treated than
they are in the South. Wages are
higher here than elsewhere, the
cost of living is small, and the av¬
erage laborer, with a small amount
of true economy, can soon own a
comfortable homo for himself and
family.
Bid. Colrinnii Gets “Riled.”
“The above is a fair specimen of
the youthful effusions that have
from time to time spurted up in
the columns of our neighbor sheet.
It is a tolerably accurate pulse of
its labored spouts at attempted
wit that has characterised this
great and good paper. We would
advise the little editor, who has
decidedly less experience in poli¬
tics than he has brains in the
newspaper bUsihess, to siie Up
his qaliber before he proceeds to
lecture us oil our private business
Or deal out his learned lessons in
State politics. We beg permission
to state for the gentleman's inior-
hiation, which certainly needs en¬
lightening, that the Brown boom
fan safely take cafe of itself with¬
out any newspaper boost.”
This uncharitable but highly
grammatical language was flung
back at Us, ill reply to a little joke,
by the little dude who edits the
Ellijay Courier. We Were poking
the little fellow ill the ribs for fun
and he got his back Up like a hog
going to war. We can afford to
tunish jokes, but wc cannot furnish
our fiery friend with sense enough
to aboreciate them As he said
we may not be overcharged With

The South’s Prosperity.
The Chicago Journal ot Com¬
merce says:
“At last the tide of the South’s
prosperity has set in to the fullest,
and this should be the signal for
a general prosperity of the next
ten years to the whole country.
The chief thing now wanted there
is machinery, tools, mechanical ap¬
pliances, hardware, structural and
bridge and railway outfit and equip-
ment, and this the Eastern States
were never in better condition to
furnish.
Now that the fear and distrust
of Southern climate, Southern in¬
stitutions and peculiarities have
vanished into thin air, and the
country is found wholesome and pos
sessed of all the material resources
of a doubly profitable industrial
condition, the wonder comes up
most vividly as to why the same
convictions were not apparent ten
or fifteen years ago.
For the next ten years the old
shops will have all they can do to
furnish new machinery and appli¬
ances, newer and more economical
processes , by which , . , the new coun¬
try will produce and provide for
itself.
During the next ten years the
Southern States will make their
cotton into cloth for export instead
of exporting the raw material; will
have a sugar product ten times the
present; will raise and make the
jute bagging for their cotton; will
produce ramie for a product rival-
ing silk; will produce raw silk for
our silk mills, and five million tons
of iron, and have a new process
for providing their own structural
and railway steel.
The beginning ot the traffic
North and South, instead of East
and West, will have developed in
a manner unmistakable, and the
exchange of products natural to
climate which is to be America’s
future commerce.
A GREAT MISTAKE.
The Covington Star has it down
just right when it uses the follow-
ing sensible language about the in-
ternal revenue tax. Yes; let them
alone and the states can take care
of the Whisky evil infinitely better
than the general government.
The .Star says:
Most of our editorial friends
throughout Middle Georgia seem
to think that a repeal of the inter
nal revenue law means nothing but
“free llcker turned loose in Geor-
gla.” But this is a great mistake.
The advocates of the repeal of the
excise tax Upon whisky and tobac-
co don't waht anything of the sort.
They are as much opposed to the
“free licker” idea as any class of
people in the country. But the
internal revenue Is an excise tax,
and is very Unjust, unfair and bur-
densome one, and ought to be re-
pealed. The whisky traffic is a
matter for the states to control
and regulate to suit themselves,
and the mohey raised itt this way
* hoUld S (1 the H’easuries
to be Used for state purposes. It
‘ 8 a « ain9t the constitution, as well
as against the policy of the state of
Georgia to impose a tax upon the
manufacture of Whisky Or tobacco;
but, she can »h.4 Impose a license tax
ftaMc-i,, fact,
she has 0 llcellks upon the ifaffic
ttwkty, and.he o«n make that li-
cehse high enough to control the
