This is the most important ses
sion of congress since the civil
war, and it is hoped that the great
problems which are to come be
fore it for solution will be settled
with satisfaction to all the nations
of the world,as well as to our own
people.
The forms of government for
our new islands upon the sea,
Porto Bico, the Hawaiian group,
Samoa and Guam, the disposition
of the Philippine islands, as well
as our relations with Cuba, are
■ome of the great questions to be
disposed of. Then, there is the
money question, the trusts, cor
porations, and the Nicaragua
canal, all of which, if settled to
the best interest of our country,
require patriotism and statesman
ship.
It is uncertain what disposition
will be made of all these import
ant questions. If such patriots as
Jackson, Madison, Adams, Web
ster and Clay were at the helm,
we could predict with certaiuty
what would be the fate of the ship
of state, but with such men as
Hanna, Henderson and Quay, who
have made greater records as poli
ticians than as statesmen, who
can safely tell what will b 6 done ?
bvii.ui.no cotton factories.
The people of the south are be
ginning to realize that it is cheep
er to manufacture their cotton at
home thaq to pay for its being
shipped across the Atlantic, man
ufactured into cloth in Europe and
shipped back to their homes to be
bought by them.
The southern mills manufacture
this year more than 100,000 bales
in excess of what they manufac
tured last year. Sixty-eight fac
tories have been erected, and many
new ones are now beiug built. In
Gergia alone, factories are to be
built at Canton, Thomaston, La-
Grange, Fitzgerald, Albany, Cuth
bert, Dallas, Hartwell, Dublin,
Newnan, Cedartown and Union
Point, and nearly every town in
the state is agitating the propriety
of building ootton mills.
Verily, Georgia is to be a man
ufacturing state. What part is
Gwinnett county to take in this
great movement ?
The only negro iu congress is
George C. White, from the Second
district of North Carolina.
The New Era says that the new
court house now being erected at
Decatur will be the handsomest
public building iu Georgia when
completed, the state capitol not
excepted. It is being built of
Georgia marble, and cost oulv
$85,000. _
The legislature of North Dakota
has recently passed a law requir
ing that persons wanting divorces
must be residents of the state one
year instead of three months, as
heretofore. Hereafter, people who
want quick divorces will have to
resort to the facilities offered by
Chioago instead of Dakota.
The General Superintendent of
the Souther# railway has issued an
order dismissing all employes of
that system who smoke cigarettes.
This is a pointer for young men
who expect to make their way in
the world, A boy who starts out
with a cigarette between his lips
is badly handicapped. He will
never amount to anything to speak
of.—Thomasville Times.
We take pleasure this week in
welcoming iuto the ranks of jour
nalism two new converts. Prof.
James A. Bagwell, Superintendent
of Public Schools at Lawrenceville,
has decided to lay aside the cap
and toga and to adopt the quill as
the iusignia of his office. The
Professor basin the past ably filled
the position he has occupied, and
we predict for him abundant suc
cess in his new field.
The News-Herald occupies an
important position in our county,
and needs a man of energy and
enterprise as a man of ability.
Having known Mr. Bagwell for
several years, we feel no hesitancy
in sayingthat he undoubtedly pos
sesses these qualifications which
are so necessary to the position
which he will occupy as Editor-in
chief of this paper. The Associate
Editor of this publication will be
Col. J. A. Perry, who is a rising
young lawyer of Lawrenceville.
Mr. Perry is a partner to Mr. Bag
well in leasing the paper, but will
ODly partially enter the active
work of a newspaper man. He
will continue in the duties of his
legal profession We heartily wish
these gentlemen abundant success
iu their enterprise. —Norco ss
One of the most sacred principles
of democracy is that the majority
shall always control the minority,
and the lenders of the opposition
to the Willinghum bill in the
house of representatives, who de
layed business, and controlled the
majority by filibusterii g for sev
eral days will have to give an ac
count to the people of Georgia be
fore they can ever be elected t<
any higher offices in the gift of
the people of state.
A battle in the Transvaal, in
which a score of meu were killed,
is sent out as being the “bloodiest
battle of the century.” The au
thor of the telegram has never
heard of the war between the
American States, or else he imag
ines that he is living in another
century.—Exchange.
