Fifteen Scandal* (n Tw » Tears
Some purbiind and idiotic Ilepiibli-
thls morning a few extracts of the ex- j velopment of Georgia had begun, four can editor having made the assertion
presslons of a few editors who visited
Albany daring the Chautauqua.
It would be just a3 easy a matter to
give eight pages of such notices clip
ped from oar exchanges if space would
allow but we give "these clippings to
show In some measure how the editors
of the State appreciated their enter
taintnent here and bow .much they
think of the Georgia Chautauqua.
The weekly exchanges have poured
in this week and every one of them Is
filled with happy utterances for A lba-
ny and feliciUons for Georgia’s gieat
Chautauqua. In other words,the brainy
men of the State have been here and
participated in one of Georgia?* great
institutions, and they have gone home
and told their people of it.
And they have told fn terms that are
unmistakable and unequivocal—they
have told tbelr readers of a great insti
tution that to them has heretofore been
talked of bat little, and they have told
of the wonderful progress, thrift and
enterprise of a great and growing city,
a city whose greatness is spreading like
the waves of a- great tide—stretching
in little ripples far into the beach and
breaking in gentle touch' upon those
far away from the central point of ag
itation.
It was a pleasure to have the Geor
gia editors here during Chautauqua; “
was a pleasure for Albany to entertain
them; their kindly expressions are
deeply app»«ciatod, and when they
come again we will take them in tow
and make them feel in the true sense
of the word that—
Albany is the Queen of Southwest
Georgia.
Albany In the Lead.
The Queen of Southwest Georgia al
ways gets there,
In fact Albany has a kind of a way
of forging to the front that is not un
derstood by other cities. We just
simply go to work and pull right up to
the top round in a quiet way without
makfogafnssabout it, bat when the
time comes to show up we are there.
Some parties have manifested a dis
position to disparage Albany in the
past and have tried to'show that it was
lagging behind in the general advance*
ment o! the country, bat they can’t do
so any longer for—
Albany has the largeest population
of any city In Southwest Georgia.
Tills is no fanciful statement, but it la
a fact. Cram’s Atlas,-"ot the World,
Issued for the year 1891, gives the
figures and statistics compiled from
the latest returns and here they are:
Albany 6,856
Americus 6,335
Dawson.... 2,000
Tbomasville 6.527
Cuthbert 2,400
These are the principal cities In
Southwest Georgia, and Albany stands
at the head of the list.
But then there’s no surprise In
that for—
Albany Is the Queen of Southwest
Georgia.

Just a Little Cheek.
A newspaper Is regarded by a large
number of people as a free horse and
toese people never hesitate to jntnp on
and ride it to death—or at least, try.
A large number of people, though,
realize that it takes money to buy
printers ink and they are constantly
trying to dupe newspapers Into
scheme by which they will get adver
tising for nothing by holding out
specious means of revenue.
The News and Advertiser is in
receipt of a circular letter from a piano
manufacturing bouse in New Jersey
that for cheek simply over-reaches
anything ever heard of. The concern
wants to sell Its goods, but first it
wants to advertise them, and here is a
sample of dead beat ingenuity that
simply takes the palm.
The concern in question sends out
a circular the first request of which is
that we send them a copy of out mail
ing list that they may send their circu
lars to every subscriber we have. In
return they offer to pay us a commis
sion ot three dollars on every organ
and six dollars on every piano sold in
that way.
The hope is held oat that by sending
out repeatedly such circulars from said
mailing list our commissions will run
up to quite a neat sum every month for
running their ad.
The roan who would have the cheek
to make such an oiler must think that
verdancy is at a premium. Or maybe
he thinks newspapers are run simply
for accommodation, but be will
learn, if he Is fresh os all that, that be
can’t gull an editor and entrap him
into such snares.

One of Georgia’s young criminals es
capes the penalty of the law very
nicely. The Augusta Evening Herald
gives the following account of it:

carried off the New York mail, was
brought before Judge Haight for pre
liminary examination yesterday after
noon. He will be sent to the reform

he is too young to be sent to the peni

young man who starts out with do

well, and one of them has left bis Im
press forever upon the history of that
great corporation, the Central railroad
of Georgia, Lon which he worked his
way op from a setfaon band to its pres
ident and by the power of his
magnificent qualifications transformed
it from an Insignificant property Into
one of the wealthiest and most gigantic
corporations in the South. Of those
four brothers, the Augusta Chronicle
writes:
The news ot the death of Mr. Dole
Wadley, which occurred at 5 o’clock
p. m., April 9, at Portsmouth, N. H.,
recalls the fact that he was the last ot
four brothers who were well known in
Georgia. Mr. Dole Wadley was 64
years old, and died, as did bis brothers,
of heart failure. Ail four were about
the same age at the time of«heir de-

takes him to task utation that decidedly unenviable
William M. David, Moses and Dole
Wadley came to Georgia more than
forty years ago. Tuey were sturdy
New England lads, with vim, industry
and character. They were all born at
Brentwood, N. H., and arrived in this
State in time to take part in the early
development of Georgia. The name
of Wadley is closely identified with the
Georgia Central railroad. The oldest
brother was president of that line op
to the time ot his death. Moses and
Dole Wadley continued the lumber
business along the line of road nntil in
1887 death dissolved the partnership.'
David, the second brother, was also
engaged in the lumber trade. He died
In Georgia and is buried in Atlanta.'
William M. Wadley died at Saratoga
and is bnried at Bolingbroke, near
Macon, while the dust of Moses Wad
ley rests In the Summerville cemetery,
near Augusta.
Moses and Dole Wadley were near
the same age, and their long business
relations were but natural lit.ks which
grew out of long affection and cher
ished companionship. After the death
of Moses Wadley, four years ago, Dole
Wadley returned to New Hampshire,
bfs sense of loneliness preventing his
return to Georgia, although nntil the
last moment his heart turned in fond
ness toward his adopted State. He

The Cotton Crop for 1891.
Within a week past the price of cot
ton has been within two points as low
as it was in 18G3, when it reached the
lowest point on record.
The cause of this low price is dne to
the enormous crop of last year, which
it is ascertained willreach no less than
eight million five hundred thousand
bales, an increase of a million of bales
over the-crop of 1890.
Tbe production of this immense crop,
without reference to cotton specula
tion, has bad a perfectly natural effect
fn bringing down the market, because
it is far in excess of the demand.
The wise farmer cannot but fail to
learn a valuable lesson from the pres
ent condition of the market, which
seems ilkely to continue as it is—in
definitely.
It is quite doubtful if tbe present
currency circulation of tbe country
was increased to suit the most zealous
advocate for more money, it would not
have any effect In increasing the price
of the staple. The long aDd short of
it is too much cotton—more than is
needed to supply the demand has been
made, and this fact known and abso
lutely fixed in the minds of the cotton
manufacturers of the world will keep
them from rushing into tbe m&iketto
buy something which they do not need.
In this connection the Southern Farm
says:
The Southern States possess ad van
tages for raising cotton which are not
equaled by other territtory. in the
world, and so long as we keep the pro-,
duction within the bounds of the con
sumption, fair prices may be had, and
the industry perpetuated. To raise
more cotton than the market will take
can lead but to one result—the ruin of
rhe Southern farmers who adopt such
a policy. The worst feature of such a
course is the fact that in tbelr effort to
iroduce a large crop of cotton the
armors fail to raise enough corn to
supply their homes, and in conse
quence have to bny meat and bread
for their families and corn for their
stock, paying for it out of the pitiful
sum derived from the sale of their cot
ton.
It is late in the season to plant corn
and farmers have in many sections hac
no chance to prepare their land for the
corn crop in consequence of the heavy
rains, hut they will act very wisely iu
planning a late crop and raising enough
ora to supply every demand. The
situation is serious now, and if last
year's cotton crop is duplicated or sur
passed this year, to the exclusion of
lome supply crops, the situation will
not only be serious but desperate.
There is but on! successful course
for Southern farmers to pursue and
that is to live at home, no matter how
cheap corn and meat can be bought in
town, and raise their cotton crop as a
surplus. The most successful farmers
all over the South are the ones who
diversify their crops, raiseas near as
possible everything they need and
• incidental a
give only i
1 attention to cotton.
The officials of the State Alliance
are preparing two rallies—one

Skillful Tampering With Dollars.
From too Louisville Courier-Journal.
A large number of counterfeit dol
lars were thrown outby the bankers
yesterday, and it is believed that the
town is flooded with them. Tbe dollar
js a perfect one, being only off a trifle
in weight and ring. The counterfeit-
re experts, as their work is of the
most delicate kind.
The bogus coins are nothing bat
shells of the genuine. They are filled
with some other metal to give the
coin the desired weight. The sliver Is
drawn out in a powdered form through
minute hole in the milled edge. The
work very laborious, but it is claimed
that thirty cents worth of sliver can be
removed. A metal oi some kind it
poured into the small hole, which- is
almost too small for detection.
It is believed tbe coin came from
some other city, the coiuackers haring
brought u to pass on the people here.
The German National Bank had eight
of the coins offered them yesterday.
