He makes you feel as tf sunshine Is Ml around you. Speaking of present conditions, be said: “If you and I are spared ten years longer we will are Georgia more prosperous than men ever dreamed of or Hoped tor. The signs of an industrial revolution are plain to me. A reaction from old-time methods and policies has set in. and It will not stop. Our people will Fare TO adjust themhelvwi to diratged conditions and cease the sli ce, ton system. We have a Boll capable of producing nearly everything that can be raised In tile ground. The ex perience of the past season has been full of object lemons TO our people, which they wtH not forget. A good many feel Blue now, and, thinking of the'low price of cotton, have been lu- eftined to look on the dhrk side; but this will not last Already there Is a more hopeful feeling and a disposition to make the beet of preseri! conditions. I am pleased ‘to note tlxtlt the Telegraph is leading the fight on this line; and I wunt to congratulate you on the wonderful improvement of the Tele graph under Mr. Alien. It Is one of the best newspapers In the South." Refer ring to the undeveloped resources of the state and of Monroe oounty, he said: "The natural resources of Geor gia are second to those of no state in the union, and Monroe lias her share. Within the limits of this county, on the TownDisa river, a tributary of Uie Oc- mulgee, Is one of the flntot water I»wers far manufacturing’ purposes in the state. There is a fall &f 90 feet, ouid for o distance of 400 yards on each side of tho stream the power—equal to 1,000 horse power—can be utilized to drive thousands of spindles. The* power is sufficient to operate enough factories to use ail the cotton that can bo raised in this tnd adjoining counties.” If one wains to find Judges of current events and policies, he need* fro no farther than Forsyth. Mr. J. M. Thomas, ono of the old-time IXmocrats, is a fair exponent. Unswerving in his faith In Densucrakic principles, he innmtaius his faith where others falter, and brieves Cleveland Is the tribune of the people. “Two years from now,” he aayn, “the people will throw up chelr hat* for him nnd acknowledge he has been right on all public ques tions to whloh the Democratic party Is committed.

When a Man Takes it Good-bye to All Hopes of Reform. ... "A man may recover from a crazy de sire for gambling or give up whisky af ter he has been Its slave,” said Robert Searles of Denver at La Normandie yes terday, “but when he goes quartz crazy there is no further hope for him unless he strikes a bonanza. Then his insanity will be none the less intense, but It will not be so pronounced,because he will have the means to pursue his passion without undergoing, discomfiture or creating re- mark. What do I mean by Quartz crazy? Well, It Is evident you have never been In the Western country. Out where' the mountains are piled, up on top of each other those lunatics abound. A man who is quartz crazy is an Individ liar who catches the mining fever and' bdebmes convinced that his mission on earth is to find tho greatest vein of pay ore ever discovered. In pursuit of his quest he suffers more hardships and overcomes more obstacles than did all the knights who ever searched for the Holy Grail. He will leave home, family, friends and comfort, and, all alone, with a meagre supply of provisions and a few tools, he will plunge Into unknown wildernesses, and when he finds a place that holds out a mineral prospect he will burrow in the treacherous mountain side like a rabbit end dig from daylight to dark, expecting with every stroke of his pick to uncover fcls expected fortune. Nearly every pros pector in the West, or the rest of the world for that matter, is afflicted with the malady. I have described. Some of them keep up their ceaseless search, with every recurring season, and sometimes strike a good thing. In such cases some body else, the party who has the money to develop the find, reaps the profits. “There are exceptions, however, and old Tom Cruse of Helena Is one. Tom was and Is a character. He reached. Montana when Lost Chance Gulch, where Helena is now located, was yielding up the riches of Its gravel to the desperate pioneers who had struck the place when starvation seemed the next thing to con template. When the gulch gave out he began to travel through the mountains looking for his bonanza. He could neither read nor write, but his mineral knowledge was something wopderful. Every spring for years he started out with a grub stake and every fall he returned empty- handed, but yet full of hope. Everybody laughed at him and made him a butt for their Jokes, but old Tom took It all good naturedly and invariably found soynobody during the winter to fit him out for his Journey in the spring. At last, one Au gust day several years ago, Tom came Into Helena with a bag of specimens that opened people’s eyes. They were from the lead which resulted in the discovery of tho world-famous Drum Luimnon mine at Marysville. Mont. Tom’s common sense helped him to beat tho moneyed people, who tried to beat him. He owns the biggest part of the Drum Lummon yet, and he has a banking house at Hel ena as a side issue. His life has had Its tender romance and a pathetic tragedy, too. Tho winter previous to his strike a waiting maid in ono of the Helena ho tels hail been quite kind to tho old man. When hia fortune came he asked her to share It with him, and she consented. They were a devoted couplo and old Tom’s cup of happiness was brimming full when his wife died, after being a bride for a year. Has he gotten over being quartz crazy? Not a bit of it. This last summer he disappeared from Helena, and it was given out that he had gone East, "but he hadn t. Ho was out In the mountains with a prospector's outfit, revellnp: In search o£ another Drum Lummon. Ah. no. a man never recovers from quaitx cra2iness, and the malady has killed more brave, strong, enthusias tic meh than a dozen epidemics ot small pox or yellow fever. 11 —Washington Star.
