They adopted resolutions asking
‘the alliances of all the cotton States
to unite with the alliance of Geor
gia in demanding 12} cents per
pound for the present crop of cot
ton.
In the beginning of the movement
to raise the price of cotton we
wish them God~specd.
Those of the alliznce with whom
we have talkad say they will nct

Two Gucno Bills.
There are two guano Lill: hefore
the General Assembly, avd they
are 8o different in their provisions
that only one ean become a law -
The celebrated Brady bill, allowing
a plea of fzilure of consideration,
regardless of what kind ot note i
si:'n_,efi.,#hfi.é passed the House, and
‘the Senate has passed a bill intro
duced hy Senator Sanford,of Craw
fod. Sanford’s bill provides
that on the demand of the pur
chaser of any commercial fertilizer
or compos‘ing chemical, a fair re
presentative sample, sccurely seal
ed in a glass bottle,shall be deposited
in the office of the ordinary of the
county in which the purchaser re
sides, orin which the fertilizer is
dilivered, and that such samp'e
shall Le analyzed by the chen:ist of
the state agricultural department,
and received in the court's evidence
in case the purchaser should
claim that the commodity has been
found worthless.
It is said that Senator Sanford’s
bill virtually kills the Brady bill.
Hox. Louts ARNHElM,represents
ative from Dougherty county, died
at the home ot his father-in-law,
at Atlanta, last week. He was
an able and popular legislator—
one of the few Jews who have at«
tained political prominence in Geor- ‘
gin. Mr. W. E. Wooten, son of
Plon. C. B. Wooten, has been sug.
gested as the successor of Mr. ‘
Arnheim.
THERE are more legislators now
who are in favors of selling the
state road thar when argument on
the lease bill commenced. Discus ‘
sion go far has already cost several |
thousand dollars that would }mvcj
been saved to the state if a Lill ar
ranging for its sale had been passed
tast session. Hon. D. B. Harrell is.
making the fight filr the sale. |
Hox. JesseE WATERS has return. |
ed to Albany from the Northwest,
where he speat several weeks work
ingup an immigration scheme in the
interest of Dougherty county land
wwoers. He thinks he will "locate
one or more colovies of farmers in
our, neighboring county this fall,
FArMER Livisesroxeis down
avith the same old complaint.—
While in attendance upon the State
Alliance corvention lzst week e
4ntimated to a Macon Telezraph re
porter that he will be a candididate
ior governor,
e G
Tur Terrell courty farmers will
be in better condition this fall than
for many years. Theaverage Ters

Haxvox says he'll look after the
epngressional nomiration. Han
len will do no such thing., That is
a matter that tne people will ate
tend to,
Irisnot unlikely that the weath
er will play a 1 geme of freze-out
with the second annual session of
the biennial Georgia legislature,
The New Road Law,
We are indebied to Hon. W.
C. Kendrick for a copy of the new
road law, which is Luzed on the
recommendations of the recent road
congress and has been introduced in
‘ the legislature. It proposes to give
| power to the commissioners of each
\ county to say how many days the
| roads shall be worked. After the
! number ot days has been set. the
| overscer orders you to work. In
Clicu of work any one cin pay a
road tax of fifty cents per day.
The commissioners levy a tax on
i proverty o as to raise an amount
(equal to that raised by the per
diem tax collected from the road
| workers. The amount thus eol:
i lected is expended on the improves
| ment of the roads of the county.

‘ CRANGE KEETING.
Ad’ressed by Hon. T. H. Kimbrough and
Dined by Hop, 0.8. Stevens.
According to anouncement Hon.
1. H. Kimbrough, master ot the
|state grange, addressed the citizeus
* ot Terrell at the court house on lus:
Wednesday moruing.
' The speaker was introduced by
Mayor Laing.
g Mr. Kimbrough, in a very forci
| ble and eloquent manner,portrayed
| the vast magnitude ot sgriculture,
| and that notwithstanding about six
‘ million farmers 1 the United States
support sixty anillion people and
‘ have a surplus for many more in
other countries, still the farmers ace
the poorest, worst oppressed and
down-trodden people on the face of
; the globe. His opinion is that op
pressive eorporations, tarifls and
trusts are the causc of the present
condition of farmers, and the ob
lj:wt of every one should be to do
what is in his power to break those
| trusts, and that the way to zo about
it is to elect such men to ocar les
islatures, Congress and the Senate
as are friendly to the agricultural
people, and will use their utmost
\cml(*:\\'ors te break down these
trusts. e further shows that tue
| Grange has been {oremost in every
1 reformation that hes heen brought
{ about,and in fact his whole speech
ot an hour, or more, was full o!
vaiuable information and advice,
which, it followed, would be a great
step towards the building up of
asrieulture, which is the founde
[tion of all enterprises and the sups
“ port ot the vorld. After the speak

A BRICK Y4RD
This is the Size of a Scheme New
01 Foot in Uawson.
A brick yard for Dawson.
“Thelieve it would pay to man
ufacture brick for our contractors,
right here,” said a well known huse
iness man Saturday, “and I am
in for starting an culerprise of
that kind at onee.”
It was no idle talk. Investiga
tion showed that a movement was
on foot with that object in view,
and that there was every chauce of
its being brought to a° successful
issue. The pentleman in question
is a levelsheaded business man.
He doesn't want his name men
tioned publicly in the matter, but
will assist in getting up the com
pany and will contribute frecly to
the enterprise. He says the coms
pany can he formed without any
difficulty.
