Gen. Gordon’s Americus speech

Gen. Gordon may find out that he

It shows that the people are

Sparta Ishmaelite: Mr. F.
M. Little had the top soil
washed from some of his river
land, exposing an extensive bed
of decomposed shells. A sam
ple of it has been sent to this
office, and inspection leads us
to the opinion that it will prove
valuable as a fertilizer- Mr Lit
tle should try some of it under
corn and cotton. If the experi
ment should attest its value, the
hood map prove to have been to
him a blessing in disguise.
There is a man who lives in
four miles of Montezuma who
hewed and hauled .the first sills
to build the first house that was
ever built in Montezuma, lie
has been married twice, and is
the father of fourteen children,
eleven of them were girls. He
was never drunk, never was
sued, never had to buy a bushel
of corn. Has corn to Soil every
year, and always knows a man
without being introduced twice.
Tom McKenzie, near Monte
zuma, is a most successful far
mer, and he makes money
farming every year by hiring
hands for wages and paying
them in cash at the end of every
month. He pays eight dollar a
month and gives each hand
four pounds of meat and a peck
of meal a week. His labor is
the best in the country, and he
has not trouble about their
leaving the farm to loaf around
town every Saturday. They
are docked for all lost time, and
the amount taken deducted
the end of the month. When
“the crop is made he hires day
hands and discharges all hands
on the place, except those who
desire to remain and help gather
the crop. During that time he
charges them for house rent.
His laborers are satisfied aud
make more money than croppers
and he makes monev every year
The Americus Recorder thus
combines the circumstances
under which city ami country
people meet the spring:
The farmer, rising with the
sun, has already planted hii
corn and has begun to plant
cotton, and up and down the
long fieltl the furrows for‘the
seed stretch like great brown
waves. Apple trees have burs-
ted into bloom, and the robins
are making love and filling the
air with saucy melody. In the
pastures the cows munch the
fresh green grass, and the far
mer’s is glad ns she .sees that
the butter is again golden Little
downy chickins tumble about
the barnyard and rural life is
altogether rosy and poetical.
In this connection, it might be
said, however, that spring house
cleaning is at hand—the hall
stoves have to be taken down’
the fly screens must be put up,
and soon the ice bill will make
its appearance, so that the city
resident’s dream of spring is
hideously practical and unbean
tiful.

W. D. Sullivan, editor of the
True Citizen, died at his home
ill Waynesboro, Saturday after
noon at 2 o’clock, after an ill
ness of two days. His sudden
death caused much surprise in
the community, where he was
generally known and had a
number of friends. He estab
lished the True Citizen on his
removal there from Crawford
ville several years ago, and lias”
been its editor and proprietor
ever since.
The New York Times prints an
interview with Mr. Jay Gould on
the labor situation. Mr. Gould
says the Missouri Pacific stride
was without reason. It was
caused by labor agitation.. The
road had been benefitted by it,
because in re-employing men,
while giving preference to old
hands, it had heen able to select
superior men and dispense with
the services of professional agita
tors. Mr. Gould sees no pros
pect for good to result from the
existing system of labor agitation.
Strikes and boycotts cause thous
ands of disorders. The true mis
sion of labor organizations should
be to properly educate their mem*
j hers, weed out black sh oop and
provide life insurance to it s mem
bers.
