Henry G. Turner spoke alt Decatur to,

crowd. He reviewed the -work of the
Democracy and dwelt a* length upon
the sliver question. He said the men
who would derange the currency of the
country was as guilty as the person

the applause too received showed that

TAMPERED WITH THE JURY LIST
Atlanta, Aug. 28.—(Special.)—The prat
er little town ot Marietta, twenty miles
up the Western and Atlantic road, and
Cabb county arc considerably excited
over the report that Judge Gober of the
Blue Ridge circuit and a resident of
Marietta, hjs been monkeying with the
jury lists, or rather that the work has
ieen done 'by the Jury commissioners,
who are his 'political allies. Several
weeks ago, ns reported In these dis
patches at the time, the grand jury ot
Crtbb refused to Indorse Judge Gaber’s
candidacy for the supremo bench. Nat
urally this was the cause of a good deal
ft warm feeling, especially as the coun-
. was already split Into factions, Judge
Gober being at the head of one side.
When the Jury list was revised several
days ago the names of those who voted
against Indorsing Judge Gober tor the
upreme bench were found to bo omlt-
ed, although they were among the best
citizens anil had always been on the
list. The Jury commissioners were all
appointed by Judge Gtber and are hts
close friends, which has given rise to
the repbrt that the omission of the *n-
tl-Oober men was done intentionally,
on account of their action In tho grand
Jury room.
A BOLD BURGLAR CAUGHT.
Atlanta, Aug. 28.—(Special.)—It lata
fact that most merchants find handsome
window displays are a good Investment.
Keizer & Co., Jewelers ami brokers on
Decatur street, are. however, an excep
tion to this rule. The Arm, which has a
magnificent window, has recently
tempted passers-by with a valuable as
sortment of jewelry, as well as a lot of
crisp new greenbacks distributed artis
tically among the Jewels. All night long
the window hm been kept brilliant with
electric lights. This morning about 2
o'clock Tom Rains, a vagrant negro,
happened to pass that way. The sight
was too much for him. He went Into
an aHcy apd got a bl* rock, and when
the policeman on that beat had turned
a corner let fly tbe rock. In short or
der the negro followed the missile
through the brokeD glass, and grabbing
both hands full »r bills and Jewelry,
made a dooh for liberty. The bold bur
glary created a good deal of excitement
In police circles. About daylight Rains
was captured hiding In an alley. He
had his plunder still with him, besides
a ptilr of badly cut hands, which will
help convict him of the burglary.
REWARD FOR WHITBCIAPS.
Atlanta, Aug. 28.—(Special.)—Gover-
nbr Northen today offered a reward of
8200 for tho capture of Will Morrison
and A. P. Duncan, the Murray county
whltecoippers who assaulted Will Ro
per, an alleged Informer. Roper was
taken out of the house where he was
stopping, dragged several miles Into the
mountains. • ami after being shot sev
eral times, was thrown to the bottom
of an okl well, where he lay for six
days and nights without food br water,
suffering the moot horrible ngony and
torture. Roper was brought to Atlanta
for surgical treatment, having been res
cued by n mountaineer whb discovered
him by chance, and Is still here. Mor
rison and Lawrence have succeeded In
keeping clear of the officers, and until
they are captured Roper's life would
not be safe If he returned to hts home.
FOR HER SON'S SAKE.
Atlanta, Aug. 28.—(Specdnl.)J>A pa
thetic chapter wus added to the kill
ing ot Capt. H. O. King by Alex Carr
today. This morning a mortgage for
31.000 was filed in the clerk’s office In
favor of Arnold & Arnold, Carr’s attor
neys. The mortgage was given by Mrs.
E. L. Carr, the gray-halred, feeble, old
mother of Carr, upon her little home,
Almbst her only worldly possetulon.

The following correspondence between
C. A. Rowland of Augusta and Col. R,
Redding, director of tho Georgia experi
ment station, near Griffin, on the general
apathy of tho people In tho matter
improved agricultural methods; will be
found very Interesting reading:
, THE OPENING LETTER.
Augusta, Aug. 18,. 1894.—Col. J. R. Ited
ding, Director, Experiment, Ga.-*Deur Sir
• • • I am discouraged, If you are
not, at the general, If not almost the
universal, apathy of our people on' tho
subject of Improved agricultural methods.
It would be aurlous and humiliating to
hear the statistics furnished of tbo small
percentage of farmers who pver read
anything on the subject of thq.t which
Is of vital Importance to them. Yours
very respectfully, c. A. Rowland.
Gcorfcta ‘Bxperimifct Station, '.Expert
ment, Go., Aug. 20, 1894.—C. A. Rowland,
Augusts •Go-r-My Dear Sir: • • •
I fully endorse what you say In regard
to the practical Inutility of legislation so
long ns farmers follow such unbusiness
like methods, and produce such poor re
sults. And while 1 Would be the Inst to
underestimate the value and Importance
of the work we are doing at this station
I am free to say that 1 believe I could
do oven mdre good .to the farming Inter
est If I cduld spent) my entire tlmo in
visiting the farmer* holding meetings,
and discussing and. impressing tho Impor
tance of common sense, business methods.
Farmers do not need science • less, but
they need common sense more. "Intensive
farming" Is simply business principles
applied to the, conduct of the farm, Tho
Idea of cultivating on acre of land which
can be reasonably expected to yield no
more than one-third of u bale of cotton,
or ten or twelve bushels of corn, or twelve
of fifteen buritelo of.oats is simply prepos
terous. I insist that there can bo no real
prosperity for an Individual farmer in
producing leas than one bale of cotton,
twenty-five to thirty bushels of corn, or
forty to fifty bushels of oats, per aciy,
I insist that there Is a fair profit to be re.
allzedon cotton at 6% cents, provided the
best land on each farm be selected, a Ju
dicious rotation of crops bo adopted, and
a. liberal urq of fertilizers (Including cow
peas and other renovating roolo) be prac
ticed. I have Illustrated on this furm
the above propositions. When I took
charge of It five years ago, its unaided
productiveness was at tho rate of one-
third of a bale of cotton, or ten bUBhels
of corn per acre. By a system of rotp.
tion, including a crop of, small grain and
cow pens every third year, nnd liberal
but judiolous use of well balanced fertili
zers, tho 1 arid—every acre of it In cultiva
tion—has been profitably brought up to a
capacity of one bale, or twenty to twenty-
five bushels of corn, or to thirty or forty
bushels of oats per acre. Our crop is now
so fin# that It promises—with no oasualty
In the future, and a reasonably lats fall—
to yield from 1ft to 2 bales per acre.
Counting only the expenses which would
be properly chargeable to the crop ns a
business venture, it certainly will not have
cost-when gathered and ready for mar
ket-exceeding 6 cents per pound, and I
think not more than 4 cents.
But If a farmer outs down his area—as
he must do In order to get one bale of
cotton per acre—If every farmer so reduces
his area-then the aggregate cotton crop
would be reduced very greatly, probably
to one-fourth or one-fifth of the present
aggregate area, and the aggregate pro
duction would probably be less than 6,0b),-
000 bales, and the market would go up, at
a bounce, to 10 cents. Of courso every
farmer cannot be so Impressed, and there
will be no such universal contraction of
areas; but each farmer who docs contract
will get the benefit of the widening of
the margin between cost of production
nnd market price, which would result from
his adoption uf the contracted. Intensive,
one-baJu-to-the-acre plan. No failure to
co-operate on the part of the farmers at
large could cheat him of the benefits of
his own common sense course. He would
find It infinitely wiser to produce twenty
bales of cotton at a cost of |20 a bale (4
cents a pound), and sell them for 330 a bale
(6 cents a pound), than to product forty
bales of cotton at a cost of $30 a bale (6
cents a pound), and sell them tor $30 a
bale (6 cents u pound.) In the first cmk
he will exchange $29 worth of labor for
880 cash; while in the second cose he will
be simply swapping ten dimes for a dol
lar, while he owes somebody for a year's
living. So then, the argument t» to cart*
farmer at an Indlvjdual. Large bodies
move slowly—Individuals can act quickly
and Independently. I^t any one farmer
sec to It that he does what he thinks
other farmers should do—whnt all farmers
should do-whether others do it or not.
If every fanner will do thl* then all
will do it—because all Includes every; but
if only one in every ten, or one In every
thousand, adopts such a course, he will
not be without his reward. ,
