The Survival of the Fittest.
WAYNESBORO. GA,. MARCH 31. 1900
MASS MEETING.
The Democrats of BurKe countj
are hereby called to meet in mass
at the court house in Waynesboro
on Monday April 2d. 1900. The
meeting is to elect a new executive
committee for the next two year?
aDd such other business as maj
come before the meeting.
W, H. Davis, Chair. Ex. Conn
C. W. Skinner, Sec*
It is reported generally that Sir
Tom Upton is a worse poet than
Kipling de Rudyard. Jehu Gollity
Wimple Tip!!
When the great admiral got into
the hands of Savannah lie was
taken care of by some of the best
representative patriotic southern
blood iu Georgia.
Burke county is letting no grass
grow under foot in registering ‘’as
the law directs” the Democratic
voters of the county. Every candi
date is alive to seeing the business
done fairly and squarely.
They are touching up Dollar Mark
Hanna on his sore back. He has
arrived at the point of giving the
lie from the senate chamber to
reports in the newspapers. He has
doubled the boodle fund at the
same time.
The humanity of the British gov
ernment is phenomenal. While
they are civilizing the Boers with
dum-dum bullets at a cost of about
$1,000,000 a day, the world is left to
take care of a million or more starv
ing paupers of her India posses
sions.
Do tell! What has become of
Boni de Gouldgold ? And also let’s
hear of the fellow that wanted a
duelling scrap with Rufe Lester for
publishing the Hodge letter from
Pretoria. Marry, what a difference
there is in the energy of belligerents
when distance intervenes!
The old queen going over to Ire
land to wear the Shamrock is. as
full of sham as McKinley’s effort to
call off public opinion from the
treatment of the Porto Ricans by
asking that the tax of which they
were robbed be returned to them
as charity.
Macon had ill luck in the bad
weather that visited them alone
with the distinguished admiral, but
Macon is whole-hearted and even
the children faced the rain to do
him honor in true, old Georgia
whole heartedness. Nothing goes
by the Central city in patriotic
fervor for the cause she espouses.
Whenever a newspaper starts a
cry about a great crime that wrongs
society, rivals “for the sake of ar
gument” (?) begins a sneering cru
sade and cali it sensationalism. Wit
ness the efforts to put down Sappho
and Zaza. All the world knows
these plays are vile and demoraliz
ing and yet there are journals de
fending them because some other
paper raised a cry against them
first. Things would be awfully mo
notonous if we all were of the same
opinion.
DEWEY AND ATLANTA.
“Hell hath no fury like”—Atlanta
seemed when an admiral refuses to
to be made a side show for an At
lanta fair. Mayor Woodward ab
solutely boiled over with wrath
when some officious persons asked
if Dewey would be received by At
lanta when visiting Savannah and
Macon. Well, (with apologies to
Rev. Dr, Broughton,) we think, it
Atlanta can stomach Woodward
for a mayoralty term a mild man
nered admiral like Dewey, now the
most admired man on earth—not
excepting Lord Roberts—in the
very acme of the glory 75,000,000
freemen owe and pay him, might
be tolerated for a day. He may
have made Atlanta lose a lot
of ten cent car fare and maybe
a pile from much diminished gate
(Gate CPy) receipts, but he bad
never disgraced Atlanta.
The previosity of Mayor Wood
ward is one of the most amusing
affairs (outside of Atlanta) that has
happened for a century. Did he
have himself interviewed in order
to air his anti-Dewey wrath?
Dewey did not ask Mayor Wood
ward to let him come to Atlanta.
Dewey Is (or ought to be) killing
himself laughing at the mayor of
Atlanta shooting off his mouth
“afore he’s axed.” But eppropos,
did Atlanta’s people authorize
their mayor to shoot? Answer
quick.

INTERESTING TO PLANTERS.
The Cotton That the Southern People Make
Reaches Foreign Ports In Very Bad Con
dition.
The subject of how badly our
good Southern cotton is put on the
market continues to be a source of
discussion. In speaking of our pro
ducts going to foreign countries,
Mr. Bierce, an extensive traveler
across the Pacific, says, “I found
on the wharves at Kobe four kiuds
of cotton; viz. Japanese, Chinese.
Indian and American, and our
(American) cotton is thought more
of than that raised in any other
country. Our packages are much
inferior to those of other countries.
The cotton, as unloaded from ships
was in bad condition. The bad
package of our cotton was the only
thing in Japan of which I was not
proud.”
The fact is our cotton reaches all
countries to which it is sent in worse
condition than from any other
country, This militates greatly
against tbe price of every bale sent
to market and is the subject of
much adverse criticism.
The standard bale in the market
is now 24 by 54 inches and all press
es should be of this size. A rule has
been adopted in the great markets
of requiring 25 cents to be paid to
the buyer by the seller for all bales
not conforming to this standard. It
necessarily must effect the price to
that extent in every market near
est the fields, because these bales
have to be changed before shipping
at the ports at the expense of the
shipper. It became necessary to
require a bale to weigh over 800
pounds.That rule is strictly adhered
to, and as the crop increases and
more money is required to move it,
new rules must be enforced to gel
standard bales to market in good
condition.
To get the very best price for your
cotton look after'getting it to mar
ket in the very best standard shape
For information we publish this
fact from expert cotton buyers ob
fciined through the great cotton ex
changes of the Ufiited States.
“If 500 pounds ol lint cotton be
wrapped with 5% yards of 10% lb.
bagging and six standard ties, the
bale will then weigh 518 5-8 pounds,
but if it is wrapped with G yarns ot
2% lb. bagging and 0 standard ties
it will then weigh 522% pounds. The
difference in the cost of the 2% lb
bagging is about 5 cents per bale,
but the farmer is paid for 3 7-8
less weight, which at G cents per
pound, would be 23% cents. His
net loss is 18% cents.”

March 29.—Our little town still
continues its progress. W. R. Bux
ton has a seven room cottage in
course of construction on the lot ad
joining his store. This makes five
residences that have been built here
in tbe past few months.
Buxton and Haeseler, at an early
date,will add fifty more feet to their
already commodious store.
The saw mill and the planing
mill are kept busy to supply the de
mand for lumber.
Our school is flourishing, It ha9
an enrollment of 99, and an average
attendance of nearly 80.
The farmers of our section are
very much delayed in their work
but witb fair weather now they will
soon be putting their crops in very
