The farmers of Coweta and adjoining counties are so well acquainted with the old, reliable brands of guano put on the
market by the COWETA FERTILIZER CO. that no introduction or commendation is needed at our hands. They are
of such grade and purity as will meet all the requirements of your soil, and the prices are as low as first-class fertilizers can
be sold by any reputable manufacturer or dealer in Georgia. We claim with confidence that the various brands, both of am-
moniated goods and acid phosphate, have been more satisfactory in results than can be shown for any other line of guanos
sold in the cotton belt. We are supported in this claim by the testimonials of hundreds of farmers who have used our fer
tilizers year after year, and with increasing satisfaction each season. Therefore, we have no hesitancy in offering them upon
their merits in competition with any grade or brand of fertilizer manufactured in the United States. Repeated tests, under
^11 conditions, covering a period of nearly a quarter of a century, have demonstrated their superiority as a soil stimulant and
"their unquestioned efficacy as a plant food. In fact, we furnish the BEST GOODS for the LEAST MONEY, and chal
lenge comparison with any brands sold in Georgia, both as regards fertilizing efficacy and in commercial value.
The following brands are established favorites with the planters of this section, and we offer them to the trade in the be
lief that they are unsurpassed by any goods sold in this market, viz:

Race Riots in the North.
Macon Telegraph,
Racq riotsfare getting to be so com
mon inithe North there is no. longer
surprise or wonder about them. Not
. ttie first one in Cairo, Illinois, broke out
several days ago. There was one there
in November. These troubles come in
that section not for the “usual crime,”
as in the South, but for purse-snatching
and other comparatively trivial offenses
on the part of the negroes.
In this case afnegro snatched a white
lady’s purse. He was apprehended and
put in jail. There was talk of an as
sault on the jail. The sheriff made the
mistake of appointing a number of ne-
jgro deputies to guard the prisoner. The
mob came at night and demanded the
prisoner. A stray shot brought a vol
ley from the deputies. A white man,
son of a former mayor, fell mortally
wounded on the steps, and was allowed
to lay unmoved for three hours with the
thermometer near zero. He died two
hours after being carried to the hospit
al. Whether hejdied from his wounds,
■ or whether fromjfreezing, does not ap
peal*. Four or five others of the mob
were wounded.
The family of the dead man is suing
the sheriff. Thelaction of the mob can
not be justified, neither can the precipi
tate firing of the posse.
Purse-snatching is a common offense
in the South. We have had a number
such cases rightjjhere in Macon, but
e have never heardjof a race riot re-
ilting.
Of course, the virtuous indignation of
the negrophili8ts of the North will be
held in restraint until a lynching in the
South for some serious offense occurs.
Then see the fireworks, and the waving
of the bloody shirt!
We trust the migration of the negroes
northward will continue.

Gubernatorial Gossip.
Albany Herald.
Will ex-Gov. Hoke Smith be in the
race for his old office in the next State
primary? A great many persons who
pretend to speak with a degree of au
thority based upon “inside information”
say that he will. As for Mr. Smith, he
says nothing—at least, nothing which
is given to the public. As a “sawer of
wood” he is a decided success.
A great many of those who are en
gaging in the cheap and interesting
game of political prognostication assert
that ex-Gov. Smith’s candidacy will
hinge upon whether or not Gov. Brown
offers for re-eiection. Should the present
Governor decide„not to run again, Smith
will not run, say those who claim to
know. Should Brown announce his cam
didacy, it is declared in positive terms
that Smith will go in to fight the battle
over again.
The probable truth of the matter is
that the only ones who know anything
concerning the political plans of either
Gov. Brown or ex-Gov. Smith are not
taking outsiders into their confidence.
Naturally, partisans apt to prove gos
sipy would not be trusted with import
ant secrets, and it is therefore entirely
safe to assume that the present talk is
absolutely without prophetic value.
And it isn’t time to open the cam
paign, either.

A Scotchman who had survived three
wives and who had the fourth in con
templation decided upon a delicate
method of proposing to the latest ob
ject of his affection. Accordingly he
took her to walk one afternoon and be
fore she realized where their footsteps
tended they had arrived at the grave
yard, where his lost loved ones lay bu
ried. Standing before the three tomb
stones he said:
“There lies Jeannie, there lies Gris-
sel, there lies Maggie, and,” he added,
pointing to the next vacant space and
taking her hand tenderly, “how wad
you like to lie there?”

When the Senate Sat Upon Heybnrn.
New York Sun.
‘ ‘I put it to the consciences of Senators
on this side,” said Heybum, “whether
by act of Congress the rebel flag shall
again wave over property of . the
Union.” The Senators appealed to all
voted for the resolution. Mr. Heybum’s
vote was the only one cast against the
resolution. He sat with his conscience
apart. According to his lights, he
meant well, no doubt. It was simply a
case of limited intelligence and arrested
magnanimity. His conscience bolted
with his judgment. He was obsessed
with the idea that he was doing a great
public service by his demonstration
against the loan of tents to the veterans
in gray—and he was doing an inestima
ble service. For he evoked the silent
protest of Senators, some of whom had
fought on the Union side, that it was
unseemly, ungenerous and insensate to
revive the painful memories of the
Civil War in a sectional and bitter spir
it, and the rebuke was so severeftthat
such an exhibition is not likely to be
seen and heard again in that chamber.
The thanks of a united country are
due to Mr. Heyburn, of Idaho, in spite
of himself.
Even Stamps Costs More.
Philadelphia Times,
A preacher in this city who has a con
tempt for the ethics of Wall Street, told
this story recently to illustrate what he
believed to be the policy of the opera
tors in the mad swirl of high finance:
“On one of my trips to . Africa I
brought back a little fellow who I be
lieved would have done well on the
street. He quickly learned the use of
American money and I had to be very
careful in letting him get his hands, on
any.
»‘I needed stamps very badly one day,
however, and as there was no one else
to send, I gave him a $5 bill and told
him to get $4 worth of the postage-car
riers.
“When he came back with the stamps
he didn't offer any change.
“ ‘Well,’I said impatiently, ‘where’s
the change, Alfred?'
“ ‘Dere ain't none, sah,’ said he.
‘Stamps am riz.’ ”
Mark Twain says that he has always
taken woman’s woman's part.
“For instance,” he relates, “I once
strongly reprimanded a woman out in
Hannibal, Missouri. Here was the oc
casion :
“ ‘So'this is a little girl, eh?’ I said
to her as she displayed her children to
mdt ‘And this sturdy little urchin in
the bib belongs, I suppose, to the con
trary sex?’
u ‘Yassah, the woman replied. ‘Yas-
sah, dat’s a girl, too.’ ’’—Everybody’s

Lincoln's long legs were ever a theme
of pleasantry on the part of his friends.
One day one of them told him that a
lot of boys had got into a heated argu
ment over the question of the proper
length for a man’s legs. “We have de
cided to leave it to you Mr. President*”
the man said. “Now what would be
yofer idea?” Mr. Lincoln looked solemn.
Heknit his brows. “Well,” he said,
“this is something that requires deep
thought But answering off-hand, I
would say that they ought, at least, to
neach from the man dbwn to the
ground.”
