As n Result Business is Much Im¬
proved Throughout the
Southern States.
Cotton sold in Asliburn yeatcr-
day for 0.75, which is a better
price than it has brought in many
the farmers of Georgia and the
South, and consequently for all
classes of our people. In regard
to the advanced price of cotton
the Atlanta Journal eaya:
“A rise in cotton helps every¬
body in the South and there is ev¬
ery reason to believe that'the up¬
ward tendency of tins staple will
continue until it goes considerab¬
ly higher than the present com¬
paratively good price.
“Mr. Stevens, state commission¬
er of agriculture, lms recently re¬
ceived letters from New England
which express the opinion that
the cotton manufacturers of that
region would be willing to con-
tract, now for tho entire cotton
crop of the south next year on a
basis of 7 1-2 cents a pound.
“It is impossible that every oth¬
er important product should ad-
vance and cotton stand still.
U These crisp, bright days bring
much cause for hope to our peo¬
ple. We have ample justification
in expecting better times. Man¬
ufacturing and mercantile enter¬
prises of every kind are boom¬
ing.”
In the history of Asliburn the
fall trade never opened with bet¬
ter prospects. Every day our
streets and stores are full of
purchasers. The meichants of
this town liavo foreseen the rising
tide of business and have, in view
of the fact, purchased larger and
more varied stocks of goods than
ever before. Everysvhere there
is an air of hopefulness and
thrift.
Ir is always well to look on the
bright side, and it is now so clear¬
ly in evidence that only those
who are wilfully blind can fail to
see it and rejoice in the vision.
“Several weeks ago Rev. Elam
Culpepper tendered his resigna¬
tion as pastor of the First Baptist,
church in Cordele. Later the mem¬
bership of his church passed a
unanimous vote requesting him to
reconsider and remain with them.
Last Sunday morning lie announ-
ced his final decision, that, on ac¬
count of his physical condition lie
felt that he owed it to himself
and family to spend at least one
year in North Georgia woere lie
would servo country churches and
try to regain health and strength.
Bro. Culpepper is universally pop ¬
ular with everybody and with
denominations in Cordele, who
sincerely regret to see him leave.”
