Editor Brumby, in the Americas
Times, has this word to say for Al
bany:
The most wonderful thing In South
west Georgia is the marvelous growth
of Albany in the past sixty days. It
now has an electric street car line,
water work?, public school*, a perfect
system of sewer*, a magnificent hotel,
a half dozen new railroads, three new
banks, a cotton factory, a furniture
factory, ?nd dozens of other plants of
various kinds. A marvelous showing
for the Artesian City. *****
Now, we thauk the generous editor,
of the Times for this tribute to our
thrift and enterprise, but as likewise
in the remarks following the above
paragraph; he is mistaken. He
trying to rush us ahead too fast.
The Council is having the city sur
veyed to get estimates pn ‘*a perfect
system of sewers’’; we.Kave four bankii
that stand as high in T coinmercial cir
cles as could be wished; we have an
electric street car company with 10
per cent, of its stock paid in and will
have “a street car line by fall,”; we
already have five railroads (the B. &
W., the Central, the S., F. & W., the
Columbus Southern, the Blakely Ex
tension,, and ten per cent, stock has
been paid in on the Cordele road and
the Albany and Bainbridge railroad is
being agitated, and will be inaugurated
as soon as the Cordele road is well un
der way; and the Albany Improve
ment Company guarantees a $100,000
hotel and waterworks by next Jan
uary.
We have said not a word about i
system of public schools or a furniture
factory, but we are glad to learn from
our esteemed coutemporary that these
£hings are projected in Albany, even
if the contemporary did “scoop” us in
furnishing this evidence that Albany
is the Queen of Southwest Georgia.
We reproduce our editorial on “The
Queen of Southwest Georgia’’ iu this

The House Committee on l’ostolllee
and l’ost ltoads have agreed to report
favorably Mr. Blount’s bill to give Al
bany a public postollice building. The
other towns named in the bill as bene

Bainbridge, Brunswick Cartersville,
Dalton, Gainesville, Grillin, Hawkins-

Americus is certainly a progressive
city. It’s latest enterprise unJ in
dustry is a ridiculous ordinance, di
rected against the small boy, preveut-
ng him from whistling on the streets
of our little neighbor. Americus

Jet them fill the spacious boulevards
of the Artesian City with their harm

It is said that Harrison is sorely per
plexed iu regard to the appointment of
district judges to fill vacancies in Ar
kansas and Texas. He will, of course,
liave none other than .Republican par
tisans, and it is a very difficult matter
to find men of this class who are com
petent. The men whom the President
was inclined to appoint are opposed by
the better men of their own party aud
by the members of the bar generally,
fend he has therefore called a halt.
Albany’s Young Men.
There are two facts about Americus
that are a never failing source of won
der even to men who live here. The
first is that without a dozen exceptions
the young men of the city are stock
holders iu nearly all its corporations.
—Americus Times.
Why don’t the young men of Albany
pattern after this exhibition of com
mon sense evinced by the young men of
our little neighbor? In the various en
terprises,stock comi>anies,and corpora
tions now on foot in Albany, the young
men are woefully in the minority as
stockholders. Those organizations are
left to be run by what arc commonly
called the monied men, and the clerk
and salesmen and young professional ;
men up hoard their savings in their j
trunks, or in the banks, ami leave j
these iponied men to all the labor and
all the benefits of tne enterprises.
If you have not got but one hundred i
dollars, you can take one share iu any
of these companies, and give it your
help. And by becoming interested in
its success, you will exert yourself to
make it a success.
There are numberless lesser enter- I
prises ami industries needed in Al-;
baity, notably a canning factory. |
Why don’t the young men band them
selves together and start these things? j
Many tilings could be started in Al
bany tbit would be paying invest
ments, (and that would enhance the
beauty and the growth of the Queen of
Southwest Georgia), which it would
requite only a thousand or two dollars
And all this is done without a ceut
of foreign capital.
Veritably, Albany is the Queen of
Southwest Georgia.
Blasted Ignorance.
There is a good deal of rot being
published in the papers about educat
ing the Northern people up to a just
appreciation of the situation down
South. Why educate them? Let
them live and die iu ignorance, if they
want to. Every fair-minded man in
the South, appreciates the situation up
North, and it is safe to say the oppo
site is true. Those that appear so
ignorant of the South, are the blind

might do us more damage as friends
aud admirers.
A Northern visitor came to Albany
the past winter, a college graduate,
aud a man who had done some editor
ial work on a leading Northern Re
publican paper. When lie arrived
here lie did not have any clothes in his
trunk, but roughing—it suits and dark
woolen shirts, lie expressed surprise
when he found that we wore collars

lie had brought no white shirts bc-

with pages adorned with anything

famed for glory, celebrated to
day iu the leading city of the South-
the day that finds among this people
the love of valor aud the emulation ol

Georgia owes that enterprising and pa
triotic sheet:
Albany is making rapid strides to
wards becoming a metropolis, and be
fore long will have seven railroads aud
one boat line leading into the city.
Here are the enterprises started within
the few months past, the most of them
completed, and the others now on toot:
A real estate and renting agency, two
additional large banks, the Allianoe
Warehouse and Co-operation company,
a bucket factory, a new flouring and
grist mill, tiie great Georgia Chautau
qua, the Columbus Southern railway,
a new $100,000 hotel, a dummy liue
around the city, an enlarged electric
light plant, a board of trade, a new
opera house, an electric street car line,
a line of boats ou the Flint, a system
of waterworks, a Jersey stock farm,
streets paved, Albany Investment and
Construction company, a cotton and
produce exchange, a cotton buyers’ as
sociation, a telephone exchange, two
cotton compresses, the Albany Im
provement companies, a guano factory,
a cotton seed oil mill, the Cordele rail
road, the Albany an i Bainbridge rail
road, a $300,000 cotton and spinning
mill, new Baptist and Methodist houses
of worship, numberless store house*
and residencees, and numerous other
lesser enterprises.
Cot* W#rk Wltk » YIm.
The Clry Connell Monday afternoon
ordered another waterworks election,
mainly because there was nobody pres
ent with the petition iu favor of the
Improvement Company to present it
at the proper time. It may be true
that they would have done the Same,
if the petition had beeu properly pre
sented, and it is true that a gentleman
present rushed out of the Council
chamber when the waterworks resolu
tion was introduced, and rushed back
with the petition; but tbe Council de
cided that it could not be received at
that time, as a question was before the
body.
Now, what we want to know is sim
ply, how you can expect to win
light when you go to sleep on )our
guns? It is very we I to prepare the
petition, but it Is a gross neglect of
your interests and the city’s interests
to sit around swapping fish stories,
when your wo r k and your voice is
needed in your city s behalf aud ou
tbe side ol progress and enterprise.
Now, the action of the City Council
can be reoousi lered, and it will be re-
cousidered, it a petition of sufficient
weight is presented to the
next meeting of the Council
to guarantee an 1 demand such a
reconsideration. The Council is too
intelligent and sensinle a b >dy of men
to iguore the wish of itscitiz -ns. They
would go back on their record by do
ing so.
At the meeting of the Council ou
Miy 14tb, $250 was donated to the. Al
bany Guards, aud $125 to tiie Colquitt
Guards. This was done in face of thy
fact that the Council had no authority
to donate the city’s funds, and every
member of that body except one
(Judge W. T. Jones) expressed them
selves as feeling guaran'eed in uiakiug
Lite donation, because a petition from
oue hundred and filty leading citizens
asked them to do so. The News and
Advertiser thinks they were right to
do so, and the News and Advertiser
thinks they would be right to give the
petition to encourage the Improve
ment Company an equu'ly favor
ably consideration. They would
have to graut the petition, or
Win and very unenviable record for
inconsistency a partisan legislation.
So, get to work you Investment
Company men, aud work with a ven
geance. Get up a petition with names
ou it that they can't ignore. Get the
uames of the monied men, as well as
the voters who are not considered
rnouied men. The names of the moni

Albany real estate has doubled in
value within the past two years ail
around. On** instance is known where
it trebled itself iu fifteen months, and
a piece of a tour acres on the suburbs
that cost $1,000 two years ago, has
been divided up, and three-fourths o|
it sold for $2,000, and the other fourth,
with a small house ou it, is held at
$2,000.
Albany continues to boom, and will
as long as Dougherty county’s grand
juries recoin mend money spent for
advertising that portion of the coun
try. The last Grand Jury appropri
ated $500 for that purpose.—Waycross
Headlight.
You are right, she is booming,
Brother Freeman; aud as soon as we
oil a few sore beads, she’ll boom
still more. The City (Council will
also douate $500 for aduertising pur
poses, and a contribution from the
citizens of $1,000 wi’l also be made
up for that purpose. We are going to
do $2,000- worth of advertising this
summer and fall. You know, Al
bany is the Q leen ol Southwest
