OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE COUNTY.
DAWSON, GA., Fes. 6th,, 1895.
—-—:—————____
HELP THE FACTORY FUND.
A committee of representative men of
the city and county are now calling upon
the people for subscriptions to a fund
which will be used for the purpose of
either building a cotton factory in Daw
son or indusing one to locate heere. The
idea thac the manufacturer will be much
more likely to invest his money here
when he sees the people are willing to
take the same business risk that he
assumes himself is certainly a correct
one.
These enterpiises which our people
wish to bring here in order to build uv
the community are run ‘upon Dusiness
principles. They payJarge dividends at
the east and the' probabilities are that
they would p(l:\:ifi.!ip 'lafg'éizi._qucs here,
and the citizeng ,ffié@;fidhtribuw 1o thes
fund should hotlook wpon ¢his as a pub
lic-spirited 'm'qveli;ent in which they use
their money Wwithout the expectation of
areturn. If the enterprise pays they
share in the profits equally with-the men
who bring the mill. A subseription to
this fund is in no sense a contribution,
and in order. to show the people who
own the factories that we want them
here we must show a willingness to ex
tend them some material encouragement
which will give to the manufacturer
ample reason to believe that he will
enjoy the full moral support of the
community.
Let every man do his duty, and there
will be but little trouble in securing a
cotton mill through one or the other of
the plans proposed.
AN ANOMALOUS FINANCI4AL CONDITION.
It has been stated on the floor of the
senate, without contradiction, that the
revendes of the government now amount
to more than {he expenditures, and that
the surplus in the treasury is increasing
from day to day. This statement was
made a few days ago by Scunator Vest,
based upon assurances furmished by the
secretary of the treazury, and it is
reaffirmed 1n Presdent Cleveland’s special
financial message to congress, in which
he says there is now a ‘‘comfortable
surplus’’ of money in the treasury.
And yet the president seems to ilink,
and is trying to make congress and the
country believe, that the g vernment is
in financial distress, and that the only
way ‘o relieve it is to increase the public
debt by issuing interest-bearing bonds
for the benefit of the New York and
European bauk syndicates in their arbi
trary and relentless efforts ‘o depreciate
1l values and force the country down to
a gold basis. The president would have
us believe that it is not money but GoLD
that the treasury needs, He admits, in
other words, that there is money plenty
and to spare in the treasury, but that the
run which the New York bankers and
European security holders have been
systematically making on the ‘‘gold
reserye’ has again well nigh exhausted
it, and that now the government must
borrow another supply of the yellow
metal coin from them at interest in order
that the present process of the govern
ment discounting its own money and
then, in turn, its bonds,, to the banking
syndicates may be maintained,
And where do the people come in
under this process?
They don’t come in—they are simply
not in it at all.
It is an anomalous financial condition
indeed when the government with a sur
plus in its treasury is forced to borrow,
and it would seem that the representa
tives of the people would recognize the
fact that a financial system under which
such a state of affairs is possible must be
radical'y wrong.—Albany Herald.
TuE people in this couatty who are in
debt to the amount of anyching like half
the value of all that they possessed at
the time their debts were contracted
will, says the Albany Herald, be ruined
if the Cleveland financial policy succeeds.
Debts contracted on a bimetallic basis
will enhance in value in proportion to
the shrinkage of all other values, and
the maun who borrowed, say, five thou
sand dollars on ten thousand dollars’
worth of property will have to let the
property go for the debt. And it is
strange that there are many intelligent
people in the country who do not seem
to realize that this is the ultimate and
inevitable result of the' policy which the
Tleveland dynasty is trying o force upon
them. e : =
THAT was a lively scene on the floor
of congress Friday when Congressman
Heard, of Missouri, applied an efifthet
to Congressman Breckenridge, of Ken
tucky, and the latter proceeded tosweevo
tae floor of the hall of representatives
with the person of the former man. It
took all of twenty members to pull the
fiery Kentuckian off the Missourian, The
offending statesman apologized for what
he had said and congress at once regain
ed its composure and resumed the
arduous work of doing nothing.
THE eternal fitness of things, which
does not always appear to fit, has exhib
ited an inclination to come to time lately
with some of the big trusts, The sugar
trust has been driven to close quarters,
and its principal officers have had their
arrogance and superciliousness seriously
nipped by having their names recorded
on the court docket as ‘‘recalcitrant wit
nesses,” a stigma liable to make a sugar
magnate squirm.
Mgr. WarsoN and the state populist
committee have jast held a meeting in
Atlanta to make preéparations’ for next
year’s battles. It is proposed to begin a
campaign of education in Ceorgia next
snmmer, and prominent populists from
other states wiil be brought here to
assist in punishing the atmosphere with
oratory and gestures. Tt seems hard for
the pops to know when they have talked
enough.
“PAss no Free Silver Bill!” Such wzs
the advice of David B. Hill, in 1891, to
the democratic majority in the fifty-first
congress. And now we find the Atlanta
Constitution trying to groom him as a
silver candidate for president in 1896.
By all means let us prepare to whoop
for David B. Hill and free silver.
Me. CLEVELAND has again displayed
that wonderful ‘‘backbone’ by preparing
to issue $100,000,000 of bonds. The
president is a courageous man ard an
honest man, but that is no consolation to
the people when he is hastening the
tinancial condition of the country sheol
ward at a very fast speed.

ATLANTA has been in her element. It

Editor Howard is right. There are
unusuaily enough of the two-legged vari
ety in every well-regulated towrship to
answer necessary purposes.
GOVEENOR ATKINSON wants the stute
depositories to pay interest on the state’s
deposits, And why not? The people
puy interest when they use the banks’
money, and why shouldn’t the banks
pay interest when they use the people’s
money?
IF our congressman wants to insure

never before saw such s‘uff as we have
been getting lately.
Mgs. ELIzABETH CADY STANTON has
no patience with the crusade against
living pictures on the stage while there

in the boxes. And Lizzie is more than
half right.
Ir has been figured out that if the

it to be the best medicine in the world. In the
winter of 92 I had a bad case of the grip which
left my system in very bad siiape. Itried every
thing I could find and got no relief. In the fall
of the same year I bought a Dottle of Hood's
Sarsaparilla. The first dose I took
Made a Decided Change
for the better. 'When I began taking the first
bottle my weight was 127 pounds, the lightest
since manhood. By the time the second bottle
