CIRCULATION, GUARANTEED 1,100.
Thursday Jan. 26, 1899.
Few men at fifty years of ago
can command uninterrupted
opportunity for research Happy
are those who came to such a time
of life rich in the garnered tresuro
of their earlier days. Nearly all
the raw material which enters
into the processes of our malurest
itg is collected before we
Kie line of thirty. After that
pities of acquisition gradu
thoir sharpness and the
.can be devoted to the
mfef in informatian be
'less.—Christian Ad
r, Col., have de
»lish a gold smelting
^Ulanta^provided the rail
Fil 1 give sufficient induce
fiii tho way of reduced trans
a rates. It is stated that
v-grade ores of North Geor
*can be mined and shipped to
the smelter with profit. It seems
that it would be better to locate
the Bmeller nearer tlie center of
tho gold regions of North Georgia.
Eilijay would be the logical cen¬
ter for all places west of the Arri
calola and if the Augusta & Chat¬
tanooga Railroad were built even
the ores of Lumpkin and Dawson
counties.conld be shipped this way.
All through this county gold can
be found in deposits, gold-bearing
rock veins, etc., and most of it can
not be characterized as “low-grade
ores.” Much of it is very rich, as
anyone can prove to his own satis
tacfcihn by investigating. Then the
gold fields extend more than a
hundred miles N, N. E. of this
point and ombracea some very rich
mines. Therefore, it seems to us
that if it will pay to erect a smel¬
ter in Atlanta'it will pay still bet¬
ter to erect one here. Waterways
are plentiful, fuel is handy. Tram¬
ways can be ^cheaply constructed
to reach out to the Cartecay mines,
the Lovingood vein on the Blue
Ridge, also to Mounlaintown,
where much gold has been found.
At the same time these roads would
Berve a good purpose for hauling
timber to the lumber mills and
country produce to market. We
expect all thesr things in the course
of tune, but for the present we
eau not hope to out-talk money
and political influence.

IRCHTREE.MO. Mr. Ed.—
As I am a Gilmer boy, I willtell
the readers of your paper a little
about Missouri. We left Ellijav
the 22nd of Nov, and reached the
end of our journey the 24th . We
got off the cars at Doniphan, Mo.
in Tipley county. Wo then trav¬
eled 137 miles overland to Birch
Tre^, via Alton and Summerville
Alton is a nice little town, so is
Summerville. Birch Tree has a
large lumber mill of a capacity of
fitly thousand feeot per day.
The people are of as good morals
as yon will find anywhere. The
town has one railroad, tho K. C.
& B. The big mill has a tram of
about twenty miles. The town has
four stores.
Best wishes to the Courier Sen¬

tinue the Northeast course through
Bartow, Pickens, Gilmer and Fan¬

Weekly Constitution, published at
Atlanta. Ga. TJie clubbing price
the two papers b{ng only $1.50
sitbscnptiqps to be sent through
this office and tiie terms to be cash.
It is a fact perhaps not gene) ally
known that The Weekly Constitution
has the largest peculation of any
newspaper on the western lieinis
phere. Only a tew months ago a
large newspaper directory questioned
the claim oLcirculation made by The
Constitution and put up a forfeit of
$100 that it could be disproved that
t had more Than 100,000 circulation.
The Constitution promply accepted
the offer and submitted its books
the representative of the firm. Mr.
George P. Rowel, publisher of the
newspaper directory’, acknowledged
his error publicly and paid tho for¬
feit.
The Constitution, while being a
democratic newspaper, is first and
above all things a newspaper. It is a
twelve page, seven column
making eighty-four columns a week.

arions in Porto Rico, the treaty, and
tho unfurling of stars and stripes
o ’er More castle, Havanali were all
given in The Weekly on Monday, on
the very day the news first appeared
in the daily.
The Weekly Constitution makes a
special feature of its agricultural page
which.is presided over by Colonel R.
J. Redding, director of the Georgia
experiment farm and a man who is
recognized as an expert on all agii
cultural matters. He gives a full page
every week on agricultural matters,
A page is devoted to the women and
a page to the children, these twode
^ ’ partments being presided over by Mrs.
William King,
Among the regular staff members
of The Constitution are Joel Chand¬
ler Harris, Frank L. Stanton and
others well known throughout the
country; while among its special con¬
tributors are such men as Wallace P.
Reed, Bill Arp, Sarge Plunkett, Bet¬
sy Hamilton, Dr. Talraage and oth¬
ers of national reputation.
The Constitution has just eomp’.e

Golonei W A. Hemphill its business
manager. Its name is a household
word in every southern stste, from
Virginia to Texas. It Inis always
been m especially close touch with
the agricultural masses of the south,
and in having reached a circulation
which carries it into 150,000 homes
it lias won an unique distinction
which lanss it among the greatest

The Constitution will send a sam

Every man should take his
newspaper before anything else, and
next to this he should take a good

stitution. His county paper gives
him the local home news, which is
not supplied by a newspaper furnish
ing tiie general news from ail parts
of „ the , country and , from , all over the

sure that lie is being kept posted on
what is going on at homo. That is
why he should take his home paper
