Aa at that place the Brunewlck and Western railroad from Albany and the Georgia Southern and Florida crone •uch other, which makes U easy of ac cess to all the counties. The time was abort, but with that vim and push that has been displayed^ py the people In that section, assisted by such men aa Messrs. O. W. ahd-U. H. Tift, HA Tift oC Tifton, D. G. irly.

Full wood of Tifton, Dr. J. F. VVIUnn of Pouian and others arrangements were made with the railroads and right in the town was selected a nice, conve nient uiid commodious building was ereoted and on the 10th of July the Um pire Garden Midsummer Fair woa Opened. It was our pleasure to attend this, their first fair, and wo must try that ft was beyond our expectations. When we reouiitvi that se feral yea re ago on our Ur* visit to Tifton besides the Tift residences there were only two small houaes in ‘ the place and one Or two stores. Now there stands on..an eminence a beautiful and commodious hotel,, with a number of large brick stores and several large wooden stores, two churches, s Urge and commodious acadomy and thirty or forty residences, vomit of which (or architecture, beauty apd size woula do Credit to a largo city. Then only u few bodes of cotton and n few beef cattle-were ahbotmd from that piece. The grape, peach, pear, plum, etc., were almost unknown. The lus cious watermelon was only raised for family consumption. When we ontered the fair building and tour id such a dis play of grapes, melon*, peaches, peats and apples, besides samples of all the growing crops, corn, cotton, sugar ome. potatoes, peas, oats and all vegetables now* in season we were surprised. Tlie frotxo had killed all fruit around other places. Around Tifton It had escaped. Besides the displays of Irwin, Berrien and Worth there were .1 number of in dividual displays. W. O. A H. Tift had u fine display of grapes, besides n nice display of peaches, apples and melons. Tift A Snow had n display of grapes, patches, apples; Mr. Goodman a dliplay of fruits ami vegetables, *mt>ng them the Jersey sweet notaia Mr. Ed Tift displayed a. tmigmflcent lot of grapes, twelve kinds, flve kinds of wine nnd lot of melons. The Cyclonnta Farm’s exhibit was splendid, being composed of samples of fruftA vegetables and tloM crop* nnd oven live bream 4n n hug ojar. ’The Elbertn peewfces were the been we saw and the Ivey melAne very superior. J. M. Watson of Humner had thrde or four specimens of splendid melons, die Southern Queen ubt to be surpassed. W, ii. Monk of Bumner h »d line oa.'pn, hruus nnd sides on exhibition. He nas sold this •your 1,600 pounds of mett • bd tiOO pounds of laid. The strikes does not affect such men ns that. 8. E. toygtsr bf Man had RtsM and vegeta bles on exhibition. Smoking tobacco, manufactured liy Jones & Peed. Adel; cigars and plug tobacco, plug and wrap pers, raised bv O. W. & 11. 11. Tift of Tifton were on exhibition. The Tifton canning factory made a fine display of canned fruits and vegetable#. Mrs.,Bex- ton of Tifton and Dr. Wilson of pouian tout nice displays of flowers. The Cy- ohoneta Farm made n nice dUpUy of oolts. two jacks, one 8»years bid nnd the cither 6 mouths. We must not for- get a «llap!ny peculiar to 11»«- wltvai » »• n den of gophers and a huge nrttle- «mike. Tkne or space will not allow mo to mention the display In tho art d< p.irtnn'iit <.r tIn* Ii im. di< play. Thtre was « Virgo display of nee dle work and some lino pictures nnd painting*, also n display of maps nnd drawlmat from fin* Tifton Institute.

The people are very Indignant and the friends of Mr. Ash- bum talk of contesting the election. It Is also rumored that In the event Mr. Ryals Is declared, by our -weak- kneed executive committee. Dodge county’s choice the other counties com posing the Fourteenth senatorial dis- trlct will refuse to accept him and will demand thai Dodge present theta another man.

Mr. Aatsburn I, still seriously ill, but took his apparent defeat In good humor, re alising that the election cannot pos sibly stand. The Democratic party lit. this county must certainly be In a most deplorable condition when the Populate can have representation on tl)e executive committee and vote tn n. Democratic primary.

Quite a number of the young people were pres ent and muelc and conversation Hik'd In tbe time most pleasantly. But ns the apodal feature of the evening being « rather happy Innovation, was the tacky hat trimming uontut,among the gentlemen only. This may oertalnlylbo said to have furnished the most amuse ment, beside, being Instructive to the masculine contingent In the ways of femininity, each gentleman being obliged to trim s hat for a Indy. Prises tor the best and worst efforts were won reapcoUvely by Mr. John Bohan non and Mr. llobert Wynne. During the evening delightful refreshments, oonsfnllng of cream and cake, were served.

It la the llrat Methodist church ever built here. The Baptist edifice, a model village house of wurshlp, was for a long time used by tho several denominations, but the rapid Inotvase of our population tirade a separ.no edifice neccossry. Dr. L O.

The towns throughout the.Vrlre-graM are certainly Indebted to the Telegraph for Its generous effort, to bring the re source, of dlls Motion to the notice of the world. The communications from the various portions will enable ,11 seek ers for homes or Investment to form a correct opinion. This part of Georgia I, no longer considered suitable only to the raising of piny woods steers, raxor back hogs nnd gophers, tout is recog nised as the garden spot of the Empire state. The Telegraph deserve,.a goodly portion of the credit, nnd we hope In all sincerity It will be fully rewarded. Credit should not be withheld for the soundness and consistency of Its edi torials on all matter* of federal politico, about which there wo* ao much Ignor ance. ATKINSON AND WHITFIELD. The Old War Horses Working Hard for Democracy. ■Fayetteville, July 11.—(Special.)— Hone. W. Y. Atkinson and Kobt. Whit field sprite here yesterday to About 600 of Fayette's cltlxens. There were a goad many third party people present. Mr. Whitfield opened with a speech about an hour long and did not create any enthusiasm. Mr. Atkinson spoke about two hours to a very enthusiastic audience. He expounded sound Demo cratic doctrine and exposed thl princi ples of the people's party platform. He was frequently Interrupted and ev ery lime the third party came at him with a word he dealt such effective and tunglng replies that It was the signal for deafening applause. Everybody ex cept third party men say Atkinson Is the best speaker In Georgia. Evans men and all are Jubilant over his speech. He captured the colored people present completely. They will tell their friends about the good news. The colored vote Is almost the balance of power In this connty and Democrats now feel 60 per cent, better than they did yesterday. After the speaking a new executive committed was eteoted and also dele gates to the gubernatorial convention. They were instructed to vote for Hon. W. Y. Atkinson and the present state house officers. The executive commit tee decided to hold a primary August H to elect delegates td the congres sional convention. We do not sec why H0n.’Charles L. Bartlstt cannot get Fayette's vote. «It Ilea between him onA.tfr. CabanN*. The number of delegates no the guber natorial convention I, eighteen. TENNILLE’S TEAM PROTEST. It 1, Claimed that MlltedlgovDIe Won by Unfair Deal,Ton of Umpire. Tennllle, July 12.—(Special.)—In Jus tice to the Tennllle baseball club and of the Sanford boys something should be said In reply to the urticle from MllledgevlUe, published in your Issue of to'day. When our boys went to Mll- ledgevlile they supposed they were to play nine ball players and not an um pire besides. , MllledgevlUe put their pitcher, a Mr. Pedigo of Augusta, to umpire. Our team objected, but there was not a man outside of thdr team that could umpire. He was decided^ unfair In all deolslona toward our team. Every time there was a chance for u, to do anything ho would take It from ue. Tho game was played at 1M1- ledgtvlllo't request In tho rain and mud. As regards the Sanford boye there la no amateur battery In Georgia that oan equal them. The pitcher did not give up fifteen bile, nor did their man strike out fifteen of our men. In short, Tennllle was swindled out of the game and can beat MllledgevlUe when there Is a fair game played. Flour Mill Plant la the world, UNDINE.
