One of the Nicest Cities.
Dawson is one of the nicest cities
for a home to be found in the South.
The fuct is made evident by the nums
ber ot visitors constantly in our
midst, and the kind expressions of all
who make their visit here. Dawson
can beat the world in its hospital
ity.
Organize One.
Dawson ought to organize a “flame
beau” campaign club with I.members
ship of 500. It should be a “pillar
of fire” by night to guide the Third
Party peopie out of the wilderness ot
ignorance and prejadice and lead
them sately to the Democratic land of
promise,
Declious Ice Cream. :
The ladies of the Methodist church
will serve ice cream in the court
house square next Friday, commenc
ing at 5 o‘clock. They hope to re
ceive a liberal patronage, as the pro.
ceeds will- be expended for church
purposes. Help them, won‘t you ?
The €Canning Factory at Work.
The Ola Canning Factory commenced
operations last Thursday under the man
agement of Mr, J. W. Waldren, of Balti
more, Md., a gentleman of practical ex
pe'rience in the business, who has been
empioyed to superintend the canning
process.
The factory, if run on full time, can
turn out two thousand 3-pound cans per
day, but so far they have been unable to
procure enough fruit and vegetables to
run regularly. The supply of okra and
tomatoes is about exhausted and they
have commenced canning peaches.
The goods turned out have proven
first-class in every respect, and the com
pany is very much elated over the fine
prospect for the success of the emter
prisse.
It is the intention of the com any next
season to double the present capacity of
the plant by increasing the stock.—Haw
kinsville Dispatch and News.
The above is a pointer to the people of
Dawson., No better investment can be
made the next season than to establish
a first-class canning factory in our city.
We hope that steps will be taken looking
towards so desirable a result.
Put It to Scare the Crows.
‘'The unsightly posters upon the bill
boards on some of our principal streets
don’t show off to any degree of good
taste. The advertisement ‘‘Creole Fe
male Tonie,”” torn and seedy looking
from exposure, would serve better as a
scare-crow in some of our fields,
