Tue News has already printed a ist

pretty generalsatisfaction.
THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
The fall trade is openinz up with
an ac*ivity that is encouraging.
Business confilence his been re
stored in the main, and there isevery
reason to expect a satisfactory season,
The crop outlook was never better,
and the chances for an increase in
values cause the tarmers to look hope
fully to the future. Coiton is sure to
bring better prices than now obtain,
and, if the gathering season is pro.
pitious, the crop in sight will net as
much as the average yield.
Reports indicate that the present
crop has been made at small cost to
the producer, and, even if the price is
a cent lower on the average than it
has been ir the past, it will leave the
usunl net orofit to the farmer.
There is everything in the crop res
ports to make money easy, aud, judge
ing trom the hopetul activity in every
line ot business and the confident feel
ing of our bankers, Dawson will have
an unusual trade this season.
And this is the feeling and the out~
look throughout the country.
« DAWSON PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
No city in the state perhaps, can
boast of better oiganizec or equipped
public schools than Dawson. While
their past records have been above an
average, the present session promises
to be one of unusual interese and frut
tulness, The buildings are all well
and comfortably arranged, and are ‘
equipped with all the modern ap~
paratus used in school rooms. Dur-‘
ing the present vacation the teachers,
with but few exceptions, have attend- ‘
ed normal schools, or visited schools ‘
of note, in different paris ot the Uuit~
ed states. The idea of selfsinstruc ‘
tion and self-advancement in their ‘
business has been urged upou the
teachers of the Dawsou schools, and
they have always respouded with une
usual promptuess, showing their thor
ough appreciation of the importance
of such a move. Persons who are
failures in business and who take to
school teaching only to make a living
caun find wo place among the teahcers
of the Dawson public schools. Only
those who are fully up with the pro
tession, and who understand and ap
preciate the responsibilities of the
profession, occupy rostrams in these
schools, Dawson has reason to teel
proud of her public schools and the
teachers she hus engaged.

FROM THE PROPOSED COTTON PICKERS
STRIKE.
PRESIDENT E. 8. KICHARDSON SPEAKS
FOR THE BEHAVIOR OF THE COL
ORED ALLIANCES OF
GEORGIA.
I There will be no strike among the cot
ton pickers of Georgia,
I That is what the people say who know
| most about the colored alliances of the
| state, and who are responsible for their
government,
THE LETTER FROM PRESIDENT RICH
ARDSON,
The: following letter, from President
Edward S. Richardson, is furnished the
Counstitution as the best answer to the
I rumors floating around:
“MARSHALLVILLE, GA,, September 8.
—Editor Constitution: [ have just rad
your special from fHouston, Tex., regard
ing the colored alliance.
“l cannot speak for Mr. Humphrey,
but T must say that the report is false, so
far as it relates to the colored alliance
men of Georgia,
“We have not obligated ourselves to
do anything of the kind, and I am glad
that a few of those you interviewed had
sense enough to discredit the story. i
NOT ORGANIZED TO INJURE, ‘
“‘We are not organized to injure farm
ers of any color or condition, but to fur
ther and improve the system of agricul
ture among the race. The only burden i
or hindrance with which the colored alli-‘
ance has had to contend has been two or
three white men that have tried to shape
[its policy.
THE WORK OF WHITE MEN.
“I do not doubt. that the cireular men
tioned in your dispatch has been sent out
to the different colored alliances, but the
instigators of the movement are white
men, working for personal gains.
“We hope to co-operate with the
white alliance in an agricultural way.
We are here together, and peace must
reign supreme,
CAUSES FOR SUSPICION.
“The colored alliance has been suspi
clous of the white alliance, of late, owing
to two or three bills championed by them
in the Legisiature, but that, of "itself,
was not sufficient to warrant a retalia
tion of the kind mentioned.
A HOPE FOR REST.
“‘We hope some day that this negro
question will be settled. We are tired of
being tools and dupes of men who
have no interest in the race.
The negro must call a halt and sup
port those who will support him.
We have borne the treatment for twenty
tive years. We cannot and will not stand
it longer. We voted men into office only
to be discarded by them. Let the white
men who intend to ignore the negro or
get him into trouble swap seats.
THERE MUST BE PEACE.
“I am sorry to be continually denying
reports about our order, and I will say
once for all that peace and friendship
must exist between the races. Respect
fuily,

The boy Is too often overlooked in his
grief and sorrows. He may be rollicking
and reckless, but he has a heart in him,
and it is seldom that his nature cannot
be stirred by some pathetic ineident or
some sad appeal.
The Atchinson (Kan.) Globe gives the
following pathetic iilustration of the
treatment a boy too often receives when
his heart is moved. It says:
There is little more pitiful than a boy
who has lost his mother, ‘l'he neighbors
come in and are kind to his sisters in
their efforts to comfort them, but the
boy seems to be out of reach of their
sympathy. They cannot understand his
grief, or that he grieves at all. He does
not sit around or weep into a lace hand
kerchief; he goes out and ecries on his
sleeve behind the barn, while his sisters
in the parlor are having their tears wiped
away by kind-hearted, motherly women
with candy in their pockets. A boy is
80 awkwa d and rough, and homely, and
noisy, and when the only one in the world
who believed him or his possibilities lies
dead in the house, his heart aches the
same as a girl's. 1

PULPIT ROCK.
A TRUE PASSION STORY BY MAYLOR, A
PROMINENT AUTHOR,
About ten miles from the quiet little
town of Oxford, Ala., there is a lofty
mountain peak, at the summit of which
there is an enormous boulder known to
the surrounding country as “Pulpit
Rock.” The scenery there is picturesque
and grand. On one side the rock rises
perpendicularly for more than 150 feet,
and all alonyg the side are crevices and
ledges and cavernous rooms dug far back
into the rock,
l On the other side a little mountain
stream leaps over its ragged edge and
falls through crevises and crannies, mak
ing a hundred rainbows, to the gorge be
low. Pleasure parties every year visit
this spot to enjoy the novel privilege of
climbing one of Alabama’s highest moun
tain peaks and resting amid the grandeur
and beauty and refreshing gladness that
everywhere hang aronnd.
Lovers who sit amid the sweet stillness
of these mountains and tell over and Hver
the “old, old story,” and gay young peo
ple who shout andromp and make merry
sport have never thoaght of the drama
that many years ago was here enacted,
It is a strange story, and yet an old one.
So long ago has it been that no one can
be found who remembers the parties or
the circumstance. Itis a story of love
and of passion--a story of a true, noble,
confiding, but erring girl, and of an un
scrupulous, vile and rascally man,
Not long ago a pleasure-seeker was
climbing down along the side of this large
rock, exploring the crevices and recesses,
'when he found securely pushed under an
overhanging rock a little tin box. 1t con
tained a little packet of letters, written
on brown paper of fifty years ago, and so
dim that they could hardly beread. They
were written evidently by an educated
person, for the style of penmanship
showed culture, and the letters them
selves were evidence of refined taste and
good breeding.
Under this packet was another letter.
It was written by a girl who was a mur
derer—was she a murderer?—when she
wrote it. The pencil marks had almost
faded away, and it was only after much
study that it was read. We will let these
letters tell the story: |
Tar Camps, May 18, 1843, ‘
Molly —He even knows I've told you
the truth. Ido leve you and would die
to keep harm from you. Come over to }
our camp to-night, and we’ll climb up the
big rock and watch the falls by m«mn-‘
li;\:t, EveENe, |
Here is another, written, it seems, the |
next day: |
“CAMPs” May 19,
You have done nothing wrong, Molly.
When fall comes I'll take you with me ‘
to rich and beautiful Savannah, Mother
will love you and you shall be my own
wife forever. 1
I will come to Bethesda to-night—be
there. E.
Through June and July these iittle
missives continued to come, always vow
ing sincerest and purest love. Molly
loved her gallant lover and was happy
in the belief that when fall came she'd
marry him and leave the rough and
rugged mountains for a beautiful home
in the great city of Savannah.
The last letter from Kugene is dated
August 13, 1843, and it was this that
raised the demon in the young girl, and
caused the sad tragedy that ends this
story. Here it is just as it was written:
Molly: We have just been ordered to
move camps to-morrow, [ can deceive
you no longer, 1.0 not love you; I can
never marry you, I want to see you and
explain all. 1f you can, meet me at the
spring to-night, just after “bugle time,”
and we'll go up to the big rock where our
sweetest pleasures have been had. I want
to explain there. EuGENE.
In the packet of letters there was only
one from Molly; let it finish the story:
“Oh, papa, I know I ought not to have
doue it. I couldn’t help it. He deceiv
ed me, and [ swore I'd Lm him. Papa,
forgive my sin; heaven has, I killed Eu
gene and threw his body into the gorge, n
‘a few minutes mine will tollow his, Oh,
papa, this is terrible, but I cannot bear
for you to see my face again. Good bye,
dear, dear papa.”
This letter was not signed nor dated,
but it tells the closing scene in the drama.
On the ledge where these lotters were
found, unfortunate Molly slew her false
lover and threw his body into the gorge
hundreds of feet helow. She seribbled
those last pathetic words to her father
and then leaped to instant death among
the rocks, Who Eugene and who Molly
was we do not know, and no doubt some
where to-day a sister or a brother tells

‘ The antumn winds sang a funeral dirge
~over their bodies, and the first storm of
winter picked up and scattered over the
mountain side all that was left of the
unfortunate pair. Pulpit Rock has a new
story to tell its visitors—a story of love,
of passion and revenge, and tradition
will hang around these mountains ever
lasting memories of this sad tragedy.—

Raiu Maae to Order,
When through the persistent efforts of
Don. C. B. Farwell, of Chicago, congress
was induced to appropriate a small sum
of money for an experiment in rain
making in the arid regions of this coun
try, the wits and paragraphers of the
press made all manner of fun of the Illi
nois senator. Now the langh is with
that statesman and those who had faith
in his projects. This was to employ dy
namite or some other powerful explosive,
at a high altitude, to bring together the
different currents of the upper air strata.
Some of these are warm and laden with
moisture, while others are dry and cool.
When these currents meet and mingle,
the moisture in the first is condensed
and falls to the earth. Such was the
theory of the advocates of rain-making.
Within a fortnight practical tests have
been made in Texas and New Mexico,
and the truth of the hypothesis estab
lished.
The experiments ordered by Congress
were intrusted to the Department of Ag
riculture, which gave them in charge to
Gen. R. G. Dykrenfurth. That gentle
man selected Midland, Texas, for the
first experiments, and there he arrived
week before last with a party consisting
of Prof. Edward Powers, of Delavan,
Wis., civil engineer; Dr. C. A. 0. Rosell,
chemist; Prof. George E. Curtis, Smith
sonian Instinte, meteorologist; John T.
Ellis, secretary; Paul A. Draper, electri
cian; two balloonists and a large number
of assistants.
The ranch of Nelson Morris, compris
ing 300,000 acres, on which no rain had
fallen for six weeks, was chosen for the
trial. This is a vast prairie, over which
the winds are continually sweeping.
There a shed was built, in which the
oxyhydrogen gas was made and the bal
loon inflated. Three classes of experi
ments were made. One was the explo
sion on the earth of giant powder and
rend-rock bombs; the second of sending
%o a lofty height large cloth kites, heavi
ly loaded with dynamite ecartridges.
These were exploded by an electric cur
rent sent to them through the wire used
instead of a kite string, The third was
by balloons charged with oxyhydrogen
gas, exploded at a height of 5,000,
A copious rain followed close after the
first explosion; it continued several
hours over a large area. Four other ex
periments were made, and were attended
by similar results.—Manufacturers Rec

CONGRESSIONAL TALK,
SOME EXPRESSIONS CONCERNING MR, TUR
NER'S SUCCESSOR IN CONGRESS,
Yesterday morning a reporter of the
News and Advertiser approached acouple
of visitors, one from Baker and one from
Worth, and after shaking hands with
them discovered that they were talking
polities,
One of them said: “Well since Mr.
Turner has been moved out of the second
congressional distriet we wili have to cast
about to find a successor.” This was the
gentlemen from Worth,
The gentleman from Baker said: “I
have heard some of my people talk on
this subject, and all I have heard express
an opinion seemed very much inclined to
Col. €. B. Wooten,”
This seemed to strike a congenial chord
with the gentleman from Worth, who
said: “My people seem very much in- |
clined to Col. Wooten. In fact, I have
heard his name mentioned more than |
any other”’
Just then a gentleman from Calhoun
county joined the party, and catching the |
drift of the conversation said: “Well,
gentlemen, if you are for Wooten for con
gress just put Calhoun county down in
that column, and put it there solid.” ‘
" This seems to point the way the politi
cal wind 1s blowing.—Albany News and
Advertiser,
Col, C. B. Wooten is prominently
spoken of for congress in the second dis
triet, since Hon, H. G, Turner has been
redistricted. It may besaid in this same
connection that Judge J. H. Guerry's
name is in the pot, and his friends will
see that it is not left out when the feast
time arrives.-—Americus Times.
Syrup of Figs,

with the medicinal virtues of plants
known to be the most beneficial to the
human system, acts gently on the kid

A Biz Baptizing.
One of the biggest baptizings ever wit
nessed in Georgia occurred in Laurens
county recently, Hundreds of colored
people have professed conversion, in a
revival. Five or six thousand people as
sembled at a pond to witness the baptiz
ing of two hundced and six candidates,
who gathered on the banks arrayed in
white. For half an hour songs were
sung, after which a white-haired deacon
Jed the candidates down to the water,
one by one. The time taken to baptize
the two hundred and s x was one hour
and a half.
