Several Sides to It.
Many merchants of Perry say
there is no need for them to adver
tise. That they are well known
and customers will go to their
stores anyhow, when they want to
bay.
Several days ago, a gentleman
said to us in Macon: “You must
not have any merchants in Perry,
judging from the columns of the
Home Journal.’ -
In answer to his question why
the Perry merchants did not ad
vertise, we could not reply satis
factorily.
Our meechants have a perfect
right to do as they please, but we
are satisfied they stand in their
own light-in failing to advertise
continuously..
Comparing the columns of the
Home Journal with other papers,
we find that the Perry merchants
advertise less than those of any
town of similar size in Georgia.
Perry most surely suffer from this
lack of advertising. If people out
side are not solicited to come here,
they will be strongly inclined to go
where they are cordially and con
tinually invited to go.
The Home Journal receives
four or five time more patronage
from Macon than it does from Per
ry, and yet our merchants insist
that the editor shall continually
use his paper to benefit Perry.
This we do, and do it most cor
dially, but we insist that every
word we say in behalf of Perry is
a greater help to every merchant
the town than to the Home
Journal. We constantly talk
through the paper, thereby striv
ing to help the merchants of the
town, yet for lack of home patron
age we are forced to make frequent
trips to Macon. This is not as it
shanld be, and we are satisfied a
change would prove greatly bene
ficial to our merchants.
Of course this does not apply to
all the Perry merchants, as some
of them are liberal abvertisers,
and they know that it pays them.
This not written in a spirit of
complaint, but simply to show onr
merchants that they are looking at
only one side of this subject.
Look at it from all sides. Con
sider not only the money you will
pay for advertising, but the influ
ence you will exert on outsiders,
the evidedee of enterprise yon will
display, the attention yon will at
tract to Perry, and the increased
business that will snrely come.
You can leave out entirely the en
couragement your greater patron*
age would be to the editor who is
constantly striving to serve the in
terests of Perry and the country
surrounding.
Eclieconuee Gamp-meeting:.
The annual meeting at this pop
ular camp-ground opened last Fri
day and closed Tuesday evening.
The grounds are incorporated, and
belong to the Macon district of the
Methodist Epicopal church. Dr.
O. A. Clark, presiding elder,
was in charge of the meeting, as
sisted by minister from Macon,
Byron, Perry, Marshallville. and
other points in and out of the dis
trict.
Though situated in Houston,
there were several tent holders
from Bibb connty.
From the opening to the close
the attendance was good, the min
isters earnest,devout and eloquent,
and the services very interesting.
The religious feeling of the people
was thoroughly aroused.
On Sunday about 2,000 people
were in attendance, and is is said
800 were there from Macon. Sev
eral policemen were on dnty, and
we are informed that there was
very little rowdyism displayed,
mnch less than last year.
We expected Rev. D. D. Bate
man, who was there from Saturday
evening to Monday- morning, to
give ns an explicit report, but he
has been sick since Tnesda ymorn-
ing, and unable to do so.
Rev. N. D. Morehouse-went np
from Perry Monday, and remained
until the meeting closed.
Concerning the future of this
camp-ground, the Macon Telegraph
says:
“The surroundings are attract
ive, and theplaee is bound to grow
popularity. As soon as the pres
ent buildings shall have been paid
for, it is intended to erect another
arbor and several more tents. The
planting of shade trees, such as
maple and elm, and the sodding of
the grounds in Bermuda grass, are
also talked of. It is not at all un-

there, will do a liberal part toward

want to thank the good people of
Fort Yalley for their kindness to
me. I had several invitations to
the late Veterans’ re-nmon, and
went. I.met with a more cordial
reception than the Griffin man did.
Charlie Gray met me when I walk
ed into town, but Monroe didn’t.
He was afraid I would ask him for
that 75 cents he borrowed from
me in Perry.
Col. Troutman, Frank Houser,
Cops Winslow, and several other
prominent citizens cordially in
vited me to go home with them
and take dinner, but I couldn’t
find any of them when the dinner
hour came. Col. Troutman’s son
came to me and said his father had
been called out of town, but Uncle
Wesley afterward told me Col.
Trontman was out in the suburbs,
dodging me.
I then went out to Uncle Wesley
Houser ? s. He met me at the gate
and talked there a long time, every
now and then saying something
abont the mighty good hotel there
was in town. After abont an hour,
he excused himself to go in the
house to put on a clean collar. I
waited a long time for him, but he
didn’t come out, and I went back
to town. The first man I saw was
Uncle Wesley, and he was so
changed in appearance that I
didn’t know him. I tried to get
the borrowed money-1 went after,
but couldn’t. I expect 1 would
have been obliged to walk back
home, but Henry Harris met me
and offered me a cigar, handing
out a bunch. There’s nothing lit
tle about.me, and'Itook the whole
bunch; Those cigars came in just
right. I sold ’em for enough to
bay my dinner and a railroad tick
et to Perry. -I was treated real
nice at Fort Valley.
Several days ago I sold a cus
tomer a box of meat, and was
praised for giving good weight.
The scales had been fixed to
weigh cotton, and I couldn’t ehage
them, as the man was looking at
me weigh the meat. He slapped
me on the back and said: “Brun
son, you are an honest man; your
weight is less than that marked on
the box.” I could not say a word,
or change the weight—but
changed those scales to meat
weight as soon as he was gone.
Then a bale of cotton was brought
np, and before I could make anoth
er change, I had to weigh the cot
ton by meat weight. That fellow
slapped me on the back, saying
“Brunson, yon are an honest man
That cotton weighs more than
did when I put it on the wagon at
home.an hour ago. I’ll bring you
27 more bales.”
I’ve got the biggest stock of goods
I’ve had in 3 weeks, and at Elko
the biggest I ever had—there.
I’ve got almost anything you
may want—at big profits—but I’m
making a run on 187 dozen patent
combination towels. Yon don’t
need either soap or water; the tow
el does the whole business. I sell
dozens of them to every merchant
in town, and they all have clean
faces. Jndge Holtzclaw tried themi
but he don’t buy any more, as he
is obliged to use a heap of water
when he washes his face. Sam
Norwood and Jeff Houser bought
7 dozen of these towels, but I don’t
believe they use ’em right, as their
face are hardly aver clean. Frank
Houser and Col. Barron use these
towels all the time, and are de
lighted with them, but they don’t
suit Uncle Wesley. He has to
use sandpaper. No well regulated
family ought to be without these
towels. They are cheap, save lots
of soap and .take off the dirt in a
hurry.
I mention these gentlemen be
cause they deserve praise. They
are energetic men, and successful.
My cook said to me the other
day: “Mars. Bill, you jes got to
quit askin’ so many folks to din
ner, ’cause it make me cook too
mnch an’ wash too much dishes.
If yon don’t yon’ll have to pay me
more money or get another cook.
I don’t mind you askin’ Mars. Wes
ley Houser and Col. Troutman, as
I don’t have to wash the plates
they eat ont’n. An’ I don’t mind
Mars. Frank Houser cornin’; he
leaves half tbe wenson steak and
other good thing on his plate, and
that" helps out my short rashuns.”
Not a bale of cotton has been
sold in Perry this season for less
than 10| cents a pound, and 12
has been paid. The highest mar
ket price will be paid throughout
the season.
My stock of groceries, plantation
supples, bagging and ties, domestic
