The taxpayers of Au„usta are considerably exercised over the condition of the city finances, and both of the daily papers are talking very plainly to the council. They 7 say that there must be retrench ment in every department, and call loudly foo the cutting off of every dead-head from the pay roll. They further say that if there be one or more members of the city council who is not willing to carry out such a plan of action that he should re sign forthwith and let another com petent man be closen to fill his place. There is so much dissatis faction among the taxpayers that unless their appeals are heeded, they will show their strength and hurl from power the present city government. The wounded snake still drags its slow length along. The legislature has a wonderful amount of tenacity and its hanging on pow ers are enduring “world without end.” It has lived an unprofitable life, and therefore dreads to shufila off its mortal coil. It can’t give an account of its stewardship, and therefore pursuing its procrastinat ing methods, is piling up wrath against the day of wrath. But the long patience of the suffering peo ple will soon speak, and when the trumpet sound though its bugle blasts may not come from one, standing with one leg on the sea and the other on the land, yet its reverberations will reach from the ocean to the mountains, taking in the valleys and spreading over the the plains. The feast of Belshazzar is spread, a little while the hand writings will flash out on the walls, and the waters of oblivion will rush over many a one of our gay legisla tive revellers. — li you buy a bottle of Frog Bond Chill Cure, and it fails to cure, e ^^ ls i go back to the store where you bought and get, your 50c. cur e no pay is the way to buy J’fog Pond. —Scherer always keeps the finest and best fruits to be found in the market. The Chicago delegation put in some telling licks while in Atlanta in working up a sentiment to influ ence the location of the World’s Fair of 1802. They were not only intelligent, representative men, but they were of splendid presence, pre possessing manners, commanding appearance, in short they were un- exceptionally handsome men. They all seemed to be good talkers, and made extra exertions to be enter taining and agreeable, and the last- one of them had the most unbound ed faith in the ability of Chicago to accomplish any and all things. If those of our people who may never have visited Chicago accepted this delegation as a represensative sam ple, they must have formed the most favorable opinion of that city. Every one of them were not only above the medium size, but their outside exteriors were well gotten up. They evidently patronized good tailors, for their tout ensemble was in excellent taste, showing that in mixing and mingling with the fashionable world they had display ed w ise discrimination in catching on to all those little indescribable ways that go to makeup the polish ed gentleman. It is true that many of them sported very large and lus trous diamonds, but even these glittering baubles lost their flashy appearance, and came in as fit ad juncts in rounding off their general prosperous and thriving get up. Carter Harrison, who headed the delegation, evidently loved to talk, and had about with him where ever he went a crowd of interested lis teners, and while lie was most earn est in praising his place and people, his politic roving eyes took in many things about Atlauta which he was very emphatic in saying impressed him most favorably. He has repre sented his state in congress, and nine years of ids life were spent as mayor of Chicago. Though some what advanced in years, being sixty or over, he seems to have experienc ed but few of the ills that flesh is heir to, and is full of bustling life, energetic vim and superabundant zeal. The newspapers take much pleasure in abusing such men, and they pick many a flaw that only their discerning eyes would discov er, yet these men prosper all the same, and apparently the higher the piles of abuse that is heaped upon them, the more agile their footsteps in climbing up into high places, thus making a success of not only themselves but even of all their surroundings. Carter Harri son is an excellent type of the Wes tern man hailing from the city of Chicago. His restless energies have a tendency all the time towards sousing him in hot water, yet this sort of ducking only serves to brighten his Intellect and warm up his expanding capabilities. Slow and sure may be good policy for old established communities, whose success has already been achieved, and time, and opportunity, and the long course of events have all com bined to build up a sure and steady growth. But in America, and most especially in the Western states, life is not long enough to endure the steady stretching of gradual exten uation. The goal is before them, and realizing that the great cities and communities of the eastern and middle stales have had a long start ahead of them, they know that if they would reach the home stretch “neck and neck,” they cannot afford to tarry on the way, and therefore they forge ahead lrorn the very be ginning, and te the old outside con servative world, they seem to have caught on to the steps of a break neck speed, and are running the life set before them with death deal- strides. It is this yery sort of exu berant life, so full to overflowing with the exhilarating elixir, that has rushed Chicago up so rapidly, that though only the child of yes terday, yet to-day she enters boldly and fearlessly into a competitive struggle with New York, the great and acknowledged metropolis of the New World. It is usually the case that stripplings, that run up into overgrown proportions, lack muscle and symmetry and manly endurance, but Chicago and other cities of the great West are excep tions, for they carry about with them all the marks of solidity, and their beautiful streets and massive buildings show that they have bsen “builded well,” even from the very foundations. Chicago is making an earnest, active effort for securing the good will of the South, and she promises that it this good will is given, that hereafter the two sec tions will hunt together in couples, confident that this community of interest will work out their mutual good. The South is not yet fully able to stand alone, and it would be the part of wisdom for her leading men to weigh well the situation in forming such friendship as will aid her in building up her waste places and strengthening her stronghold?. THE SECiltO JiOKTfl AJiO SOUTH. Gov. Hill in his recent visit to Atlanta could not but notice how many more privileges were allowed the negro in Georgia than in New York, and lie was candid enough to express this opinion without any explanatory eircumlotion. He saw in Georgia what he had never seen in New York, a negro carpenter and a white man working on the same building and at the same bench. He saw negroes in Georgia pursuing such avocations as the North would never permit. The negro at the North is considered fit to fill only menial positions, and every year even the limits of these meryal positions are being circum scribed into .narrower limits. Eyen such places as cabmen, carriage drivers ahd waiters in restaurants are being taken from him, and he only fills such positions as are not sought after by the white man. As long as the negro will lie down in the gutter and don’t kick he can hold his own among loving friends, but his labor must not compete else the labor unions will have their say, and he will find himself shut out shivering in the cold.

The quality of the goods I have sold the past three years, is my strong est claim to patronage. I was tlie first and only house in this city to announce that Ro Shoddy Goods Would be Kept I have kept that promise. In all tlie Shoes I sell, certainly some may have failed to give satisfaction. It would be astonishing-if it were otherwise. I have never tailed to make all claims of such kind good! I enjoy no monopoly in buying good SHi -Es; other dealers can buy them, if they will. Tlie difference is this—Some dealers want the profit, and don’t care what they sell so the profit is made. I also like a fair nrofiton my goods: but I also have some nride in my business. I take pleasure in selling only good shoe;. I would rather have tlie credit of keeping the best siioes than that very doubtful honor of selling the cheapest. Tlie Best is Always Cheapest! I keep the best. Another fact I wish to call attention to, £#" I EMPLOY NO DRUMMERS. I urge every one coming to tlie city to beware of these leeches. The city abounds in White and black drummers for shoe houses. I pay no percentage to drummers. The cus- EST GOODS, FAIR DEALING, CGURTE- tomer who trades with me saves’ this. HONE?
