A canning factory will probably
soon be started in Fitzgerald.
There are 425 cotton mill* in
the Southern states, 77 of which
are in Georgia. i
The man who spent the summer 1
constructing air castles is now try- '
iDg to borrow heat for the air.
Amos Turner, of Fitzgerald, has (
been poisoned with ivy or some
other poisonous vegetable and is
suffering greatly.
Commissioner Stevens has ap
pointed H. M. Franklin, of Ten
nils, oil inspector at that point
and for the surrounding territory.
A number of northern capital
ists were near Rome Friday look
ing over the territory with an eye
to locating a large knitting mill.
Rome’s death rate for 1898 was
very low. There were 122 inter
ments for that period 1 . Of this
number 55 were white and 67 col
ored.
Mrs. S. Lascelles disposed of her
property at Fitzgerald last week,
a well known business firm being
the purchasers. She left immedi
ately for New York.
The cost of the standing army
bounds up within one year from
$24,000,000 to $57,000,000. There
is expansion for you! And there
will be more of the same sort to
follow.
What was the origin of the
Spanish race? A contemporary,
in discussing the query, recalls an
old Italian proverb which says
that ‘‘St. lago (St. Jawes) placed
in a bladder the heart of a fox and
the fangs of a wolf, and blew it up
and called it a Spaniard.”
Hon. Thomas G. Lawson has
given Mercer University about
2,700 acres of land. This land is
situated in the southern part of
Putnam county. This is quite a
handsome donation, and it is not
the first that Judge Lawson has
made to Mercer. He was gradu
ated at that college, and is now
one of its trustees.
The merchant who constantly
advertises is generally the one who
does the largest cash business. He
is thereby enabled by having cash
on hand to discount his bills, and
the merchant who discounts his
bills is the one that the manufac
turers of the country look up when
they have bargains to dispose of.

ple and keep it thpre.
Dispatches received* t Pensacola
from Chicago and Indianapolis in
dicate that great fear is felt for
the safety of the naphtha launch
Paul Jones, which left the mouth
of the Mississippi river Jan. 8 for
Pensacola with a party of ladies
and gentlemen from Chicago and
Indianapolis. Nothing has been
heard of the launch and the Simp
son, one of the fastest and best
tugs there, is making a thorough
search on the gulf.
An interesting case came up for
trial in Police Court Friday morn
ing at Rome. The question arose
over the rights of a Confederate
veteran to do business without li
cense where the business is con
ducted by another. Officer Mul
key made a-case against G. N,
Riggins for doing business without
a license. He was conducting a
email meat market and grocery
store in the Fourth ward. A li
cense was exhibited from Ordinary
Davis showing that Newton Rig
gins was a Confederate soldier and
under the law was entitled to con
duct a business or peddle in state,
county or municipality. Upon
questioning it developed that the
owner, Newton Riggins, lived in
the country several miles, and only
came in once or twice per week.
His son cut meat and conducted
his father’s affairs for a consider
ation of 50c per day. City Clerk
Halsted Smith was called in and
testified that Mr. Riggins had ta
ken out no license, and that the
law atipulated that an old soldier
was entitled to the benefits of the
Jaw, but must not transfer the
right to others. G. N. Riggins
was then fined 1 10, which was to
be revoked provided he took out
liscense at once. The case will be
appealed, and some interesting de
velopments are looked for.
Mr. H.A. Pass, Bowman, Ga.,
writes:
“One of my children was very
delicate and we despaired of rais
ing it. For mouths my wife and
I could hardly get a night’s rest
until we began the use of Pitts
Carminative . We found great re
lief from the first bottle.’ Pitts
Carminative acts promptly and
cures permanently. It is plessnat
to the taste, and children take it
without coaxing. It is free from
ipjurous drugs and chemicals.
The Diipansary System a Failure.
In his messago to the legislature
Gov. Ellerbe, of South Carolina,
practically said that the dispensa
ry system, which has been on trial
in that state for the last five years,
is a failure. He recommends sev
eral changes in it, and suggests
that each county be allowed the
privalege of saying whether it shall
have a dispensary or not. This
suggestion is an admission that the
Georgia system of dealing with the
liquor question is the only one
that promises success. There are,
of course, many people in South
Carolina who think the dispensary
system a good thing for the state,
but it is safe to say that if the
question as to whether or not it
should be retained should be sub
mitted to the people it would be
voted out of existence.
When it was inaugurated it was
intended that it should be kept out
of politics. As a matter of fact it
has never been kept out of politics.
It has always been a powerful
factor in every political movement
that has been made since it was
established, and it grows in impor
tance as a political factor.
What its fate will be no one can
predict with any degree of certain
ty, but it is not improbable that
it will be an institution of the past
within a very few years. If the
people of this state are wise they
will bold fast to the local option
system. They will not bother with
the dispensary syst m or demand
a general prohibition law. Both
have proven failures wherever they
have been tried. Local option
alone is successful. By means of
it the prohibitionists have cap
tured nearly all of the counties of
this state. In a few years more
they will have control of the state,
and they will have it in such a way
that prohibition can and will be
enforced. There are some people,
more anxious for notoriety than
for the good of the state, who want
to begin an agitation in favor of a
general prohibition law. They are
not the best friends of prohibition.
Some of them at least would like
to use prohibition for their own
advancement or benefit.
Let us stick to local option, and
we shall reach prohibition much
sooner than any one of the states
which have adopted other moans
for restraining the liquor traffic. —

Lake Bottom Full if Gold.
Tacoma, Jan., 18.—The steamer
Cottage City brings news from
Sitka that Gold lake, in the Pane
basin, was emptied successfully of
the greater portion of its water on
January 5. Many spectators wit
nessed the sight of draining this
lake into the Paciffic ocean by a
tunnel 800 feet long through a
mountain spur. The escaping
water surged down a ravine thro’
the small creek, the natural out
let of Gold lake, and plunged over
the ice of a second lake below.
The weight of water broke the ice
with a thunderous noise and threw
it around in great masses.
Gold lake fell sixty-one feet to
the tunnel level, and the volume
of fresh water, sixty-one feet deep,
8,000 feet long, and 2,000 feet
broad, escaped into the ocean.
The gravel exposed by the drain
age runs from $8 to S2O a ton.
The bottom of the lake thus con
tains millions of gold. Capital
ists from New York and San
Francisco are behind the scheme.
Much decomposed quartz was
found to have dropped from the
ledges around the lake and was
exposed to view. This quartz is
richly impregnated with free gold.
Tony Lad Bush and two compa
nions have discovered a mountain
of quartz within a day’s maren
of Skaguay, which runs $2,000 to
SB,OOO a ton.
NEW RAILROAD.
The prospects are good for Daw
sonville to have a railroad within
the next twelve months. This
road is to be built from Carters
ville to Gainesville via Ball Ground
and Dawsouville.
We are informed that it has al
ready been graded from Ball
Ground to Marble Hill, a distanco
of eight miles, and that the work
of grading is rapidly going on be
tween Ball Ground and Carters
ville.
The president of the company
has said that the road would be
completed within twelve mouths.
Dawson county’s immense water
power, which could be easily util
ized for manufacturing purposes,
as well as her abundance of tim
ber, is unexcelled by any county of
North Georgia.
Should this railroad be built, we
predict for Dawson couuty, in the
near future, industry and prosperi
ty instead of idleuess and poverty.

ADVICE TO YOUNG MEN,
Editor Knowles, of the Rome
Tribune, struck a popular chord
when he wrote the following edito
rial:
“In entering upon the new year,
it may not be amiss to take a few
observations, as the mariners say.
There is a natural desire in every
young man’s heart to see more of
the world. However well he may
be situated in business at the place
of his birth, home seems to be but
narrow and cramped. He conjures
up golden visions of other lands,
and a bright field of possibilities
rises before him,compared to which
his present position appears but
tame and commonplace. It is a
natural instinct, and if brooded
over, the idea becomes stronger
and present position becomes al
most hateful.
“Gilded pictures of wealth ; sto
ries of fortxnes made in a day in
distant lands, come to him, and
the old red hills of Georgia, cur
tained with their fringe of pine
and oak, grow distasteful to him.
How his heart sighs for greater op
portunities ! The present mode of
living is almost unbearable; the
ties of the home hearth lose their
attractions under the glitter of
pictured plenty in an ther land,
j and there is no contentment until
the young man leaves for newer
fields to carve himself a future.
“But however gorgeous be the
word-painted pictures of other
climes, young men should view the
matter in a calm and depassionate
way. No steps should be taken
which involves one’s future unless
the pros and cons are thoroughly
viewed. Robbed of the halo which
distance and imagination throw
around them, other countries af
ford no greater opportunities for
wealth than Georgia.
“In a strange laud there are
hardships to undergo which a man
can never appreciate until he is
away from home. lie finds that
people are not disposed to look up
on him with an impartial eye as
are his friends at home; and if he
rises at all it is in the face of the
most gigantic obstacles, and the
result of merit alone. In a new
countiy men are struggling too
hard to show much quarter to any
body,and when a young man leaves
home he can look out for a tough
fight, and nine times out of ten he
falls.
“Young men,,Btay at home. The
same amount of energy and hard
work expended in Georgia will reap
greater reward than any foreign
state. Mon have grown rich here,
why not you ? Especially when
everything is favorable. Here you
are known, older men and success
ful men are willing to give you
their experience—a benefit to a
beginner in any business—and
stand ready to lend you a helping
hand when you need it, and Bhow
that you are worthy of it.
“And there is a satisfaction,too,
in being successful where you are
known. It gives more pleasure to
win plaudits of those with whom
you have associated all your life
than do all the honors which can
be heaped upon you by strangers.
WHO KIINS THE BLIND TIGER f
He is prepared in advance to play
hypocrite with all the sincere and
to make as mauy as possible. He
acts the hypocrite with his wife as
long as he can and then makes her
one. His business can only flour
ish with hypocrites, so the more,
the more prosperous he is.
He is a premeditated liar; know
ing well his business cannot run
an inch without it. It is also nec
essary that all his customers lie,
too. If he goes iu truthful he
comes out ready to say, “I did not
drink.” The tiger has made him
a liar. He will make a liar of ev
ery customer. The devil is the
father of lies and the tiger is the
father of lies. A man may drink
in a saloon and be truthful. Not
in a tiger.
He is not compelled to perjure
himself but if the one that fur
nishes him the intoxicants is un
der trial he readily swears a lie.
He could not help it. His friend
would not furnish him if he did
not know he was ready for the
dirtiest work. Many of the tiger
men are brought before the courts,
and in every instance it is known
that witnesses swear lies. Yea, ev
eryone that patronizes the blind
tiger is bound, obligated, virtually
sworn to perjure himself. In ju
risprudence, perjury is the worst
crime known against law, for it
naturally teuds to overthrow all
justice. Government, neither hu
man nor divine, can exist without
justice, consequently the tiger is
the worst criminal against govern
ment that exists. He is, however,
too low to do much harm; still
like the maggot he corrupts every
thing he touches but another mag
got. The saloon hates the tiger,
but will use him as a low argu
ment for his own existence.—Co
lumbian Presbyterian.

A Cuba Christmas Dinner.
J. C. Bennett, of this city, who
has two sons, N.D.and N.T. Ben
nett,with Ray’s regiment near Bar
ico, is in receipt of an interesting
letter from the former which gives
a full description of a Christmas
dinner in camp, eaten, as he ex
presses it, in Sagua valley, “22
miles from the sea and much far
ther from everywhere else.” Nev
ertheless that dinner would have
been appreciated and enjoyed by
any American.
On the menu as reported by him
appears all kinds of fruits and veg
etables known to that tropical cli
mate, with pig, turkey, and egg
nog thrown in.
They paid $lO for a pig, $5 for a
turkey, 10c each for eggs, 75c per
gallon for rum, and 10c per dozen
for Havana cigars, ai>d got ten co
coauuts for a uickle.
These are the prices of a few
things served at this Christmas
dinner, to be contrasted with the
prices paid in America for the
same articles.
As to agricultural products, he
says that sugar-cane, potatoes and
corn can be raised there in abun
dance. They dig and set out sweet
potatoes there at the same time,
using cuttings from the vines of
the crop being harvested. As many
as five crops of corn can be raised
there in one year from the same
ground.
He has seeD one cotton tree
three years old with old bolls,open
bolls, green bolls, and blooms on
it. Cane and tobacco are the
principal products.
It would prove a great country
for truck farming.
The letter was full of interest
and was from son to father, telling
the plain truth with all the frills
off, giving one a much better idea
of conditions as they exist in Cu
ba than any newspaper reports
which are written for the purpose
of entertaing the reader.—Gaines

EX-PRESIDENT AS POLICEMAN.
Indianapolis, lud., Jan. 18.—
While ex-President Benjamin Har
rison was taking his evening walk
this evening near his home, Mrs.
D. H. Smith, a neighbor, ran up
to him, crying: “Oh! Mr. Har
rison, those two men there have
robbed my house. They have the
plunder in that bag.”
She pointed to two men who
were hurrying away. Mr. Harri
son ran after them, cryiug to them
to stop, but they kept on He
hailed two men in a buggy which
waH passing. Quickly telling them
the situation, he jumped into the
buggy and gave chase to the flying
men. The latler were overtaken
and Mr. Harrison jumped out and
caught one, but the other escaped.

Southern men who go to Wash
ington these days nearly all have
something to say about the propo
sitions to admit Confederate vet
erans to government soldiers’
homes and the pension roll, an 1 ,
the substance of the opinions of
nine-tenthsof them is containediu
the following remarks made by
Mr. A. D.McClute, of Georgia:
“If any one supposes that the
Southern people have the remotest
idea that the veterans of the Con
federate army or their friends ex
pect pensions from United States
government, or even reception in
to the soldiers’ homes, a grievous
ly mistaken notion is cherished.
Our people are not dreaming of
any such idea, for they are too
sensible to entertain any proposi
tion so utterly romantic, not to
say absurd. The old Johnnies are
doiug first-rate without any boun
ty from Washington. Our pen
sion list is already big enough, and
there is no need for further bur
dens. The whole idea is Quixotic,
and the very first to denounce it
would be the proposed beneficiar
ies.’’
3&ve the Orphan* From Hungar and Suf
fering.
This hard season reveals the
great work Orphan’s Homes are
doing for the public, for they are
saving many little faces from the
pinching fingers of the cold, and
their bodies from hunger. Grown
men may stand suffering, but the
little orphan who has not even a
pauper mother’s arm of love to
wrap in a'most tears our hearts.
Years like this show the size of
hearts.
This year many orphans who
have been cared for by poor rela
tives and friends are laid beseech
ingly at the poors ot the Orphan’s
Home, because they can hardly
keep the wolf of hunger from their
own little ones. Everyone ought
to read the piteous letters, “Two
full orphans on the way to the
poor house. Can’t you save them
from the influences T” and “Two
sweet children, both parents in
their graves, were kept in the cal
aboose Christina** night to keep
them warm.’’ Compare them,
cold, hungry, heart-hungry, on
Christmas night, with your happy,
merry children. Thank God that
they, with 17 other such cases,
since December Ist, have found
the door of the Orphan’s Home at
Decatur wide open.
The pressure for admission is an
average of one a day since Dec. 1,
and was 200 during last year.
There are now 125 destitute ones
there. God’s children will see
that these Homes are built larger
and that by money, boxes of pro
visions and" clothing, they are en
abled to love and bless the abso
lutely destitute orphans.
Jesus said, “I was hungry and
ye fed me.”

dandruff and thus removes
f one of the great causes of
baldness.
- It makes a better circu

the hair from coming out.
II Prevents and It
Cures Baldness
Ayer’s Hair Vigor will
1 surely make hair grow on
bald heads, provided only
there is any life remain
ing in the hair bulbs.
It restores color to gray
or white hair. It does not
do this in a moment, as
will a hair dye; but in a
short time the gray color
of age gradually disap
pears and the darker color
of youth takes its place.
Would you like a copy
of our book on the Hair
and Scalp? It is free.
If you do not obtain all the benefits
you expected from the use of the Vigor
writ* tne Doctor about It.
