GEORGIA AND FLORIDA
MEX AXD EVEXTS OF TWO STATES
BRIEFLY DESCRIBED.
Rome Tribune: The Tribune publish
ed a rumor recently that the Massa
chusetts Mill Company intended en
larging its mill at Lindale, but the
news can now be given authoritatively.
The new mill will be built at once and
will be of the same size and capacity
of the one now in operation. It will
cost about $600,000 and will be erected
near the old one, but just across Sil
ver creek. Over 5,000,000 brick will be
used in the construction of the build
ing and hundreds of workmen will be
employed while the mill is being built.
It is estimated that it will take 300 cars
to bring the machinery here. The plans
for the building have been made and
it is understood that some of the bids
are in the hands of contractors. Rome,
it is -said, when the new addition is
completed, will have the largest cotton
mill in the state. It will bring to Lin
dale several hundred new families, as
it will take about 1.200 people to ope
rate the looms. Homes will have to be
provided for these new- operatives and
a number of new houses will have to
be built.
ROAD WORKERS KALE. OFT.
Columbus Enquirer-Sun: J. W. Dri
ver, white overseer, shoulder blade
fractured with hoe. Frank Bedell, col
ored, shot through leg. This is the re
sult of a rather exciting difficulty that
occured yesterday morning in Edward’s
district, in the eastern part of the
county. Mr. Driver is a road overseer,
and it seems that he had summoned
Frank Bedell, colored, and his son, Ar
thur, to work the road. The older ne
gro brought a hoe. when the overseer
told him he would have to use a shovel.
The negro refused to use a
shovel and the overseer told him
he would have to dismiss him from the
force if he did not use the tool he se
lected. Under the alternative road law,
now in operation in this county, this
meant a fine. A dispute resulted, and
Mr. J. J. Rodgers, district bailiff,
stepped in as peace-maker. His ef
forts did not seem to be particularly ;
appreciated by the negro for Frank Be
dell assaulted him. Mr. Driver went
to Mr. Rodger’s rescue and young Ar
thur Bedell ran behind Mr. Driver and
struck him with all his might with his
hoe across the shoulder, the blow frac
turing the shoulder blade. In the mean
time Mr. Rodgers was being close
pressed by the old negro. Frank Bedell,
and drew his pistol and shot him
through the leg. The wound is not
thought to be very serious, but it
quelled the disturbance instantly.
FLORIDA."
Ocala Banner: The sad intelligence
of the drowning of Mr. Frank Tur
ner in the Withlacoochee river reach
ed this city yesterday. The accident
occurred Thursday night about nine
o’clock. It seems that Mr. Turner
and a friend had been out hunting and
returning home had to cross the river
at Stokes' ferry. They drove on to
the flat without unhitching the horse
from the vehicle, Mr. Turner remain
ing in the buggy. When about half
way across the river the horse be
came frightened and plunged into the
river, and it was done so quickly that
Mr. Turner did not have time to save
himself, and he and the horse were
bcth drowned. Mr. Turner had on an
overcoat with a lot of shells in the
pocket and was thus unable to swim.
Bp to the last accounts his body had
not been recovered. Mr. Turner is a
son of Dr. Walter S. Turner, a promi
nent member of the Florida Press As
sociation and who lives at Holder.
GUBERNATORIAL COMMENT.
Bainbridge Searchlight: If Mr. Es
till runs as well in Georgia as he i
running in Florida, why Messrs. Ter
rell and Guerry might as well adjourn
and go home. Estill is “it” across the
line.
Darien Gazette: Col. Estill contin
ues to get acquainted with the boys
and scoop in votes.
Tattnall Journal: Col. Estill, South
Georgia’s magnetic candidate, is gain
ing strength every day. A better man
will never be placed at the head of our
state affairs.
Douglas Breeze: Mr. Estill will come
to see our people court week. He will
get a great many more votes here
than the "knowing ones” think now.
Greenesboro Herald-Journal: Some
of our readers may be at a loss to
reconcile "Private Estill” and "Col.
Estill.” The explanation is simple.
When the Southland needed fighters
more than officers, he coveted no high
er honor than to stand with his fel
lows in the ranks; afterwards, when
came the "piping/times of peace," and
fighters were no longer in demand,
Gov. Colquitt, in recognition of his
civic and military services, conferred
upon him the title he now bears.
Blackshear Times: Col. Dupont
Guerry says local option has had its
day; it must either go forward or
backward. The Times is of the opin
ion that local option has been the
means of much good to our country,
and others as well, and we should hold
on to it. /Col. Estill's views on this
line are right.
Thomasville Times-Enterprise: South
Georgia and the v.iregrass should be
loyal to Col. J. H. Estill. Let us stand
lor our section; and doing so, we will
be standing by a man whose sterling
integrity and unquestioned business
qualifications eminently fit hiim for the
position of Governor. If Georgia ever
needed a first-class business man at the
helm, she will need him in the next
two years.
Claxton Tribune: The candidacy of
Col. J. H. Estill of Savannah. Ga.. for
Governor, has brought out the fact,
through the daily and weekly papers of
the state, that he is one of Georgia's
most brilliant men. Not only by the
press of the state, but by rnany of the
best and purest men of the state. If he

SpratH tor Primary.
Wiregrass Blade: The Blade this
week received a communication from
the lower portion of Emanuel county
from a prominent and influential Dem
ocrat, in which he says: "I have just
read the last issue of the Blade. You
are now striking the keynote. If Es
till gets beat for Governor, let’s not let
him lose Emanuel county. One thing
against the Terrell crowd is that they
had rather not have a primary. Every
body in this section of the county will
support Estill and a primary sure."
And this is about the way the good
honest farmers are looking at the mat
ter in all sections. The Blade was the
first to speak for a white primary, and
will continue to do so until we get it.
Political Xonscnsc Rebuked.
Quitman Free Press: Terrell at age
18 “plowed a red mule in a cornfield’’
and Guerry at age 18 “plowed two
mules and a horse," but we fall ip see
what this has to do with their fitness
for Governor. All sorts of useful
knowledge is good, and the getting of it
is training for a man’s higher faculties
as well as his muscles, but in a guber
natorial campaign where it is only a
question of man’s business and execu
tive abilities, etc., why should his ac
complishments as a plowman or car
penter be brought in, unless, indeed, it
is part of the Governor’s duties to cul
tivate flowerbeds around the capitol?
The fine democratic idea thiat manual
labor does not degrade and that a man
may rise from the ranks of the poor
and obscure to the highest station in
the land, if he has it in him to do it,
is something to be thankful for, but we
don't like to hear a man tell the farm
ers he has plowed so they won’t think
he is "stuck up.” It argues that the
farmers and other voters have a great
deal of foolish vanity to be catered to
when voting time comes.
Of R CANDIDATE-COL. J. H. ESTILL.
Tattnall Journal: Col. W. W. Shep
pard of Savannah spent Monday in
Reidsville and informed us that Editor
Estill was fast gaining ground all over
the state. The people of Tattnall, Lib
erty, Emanuel, Montgomery, Telfair,
Dodge, Laurens, Bulloch and Bryan
counties now look upon him as their
candidate and they ore supporting
him like a brother. The people of this
section feel thnf it is their time to
have a Governor and that feeling is
gxowing stronger and stronger every
day, and men who a few months ago
were friendly to the North Georgia
candidates, and when Editor Estiil’s
name was mentioned in their presence
would make light of his candidacy,
those same men are now his stanch
friends and most ardent supporters.
People only have to meet and get ac
quainted with Col. Estill, to see at a
glance that he is a gentleman of the
first water, a man of strength and
that he is fully capable of being at
the head of our state affairs. There is
no doubt whatever that if elected, Col.
Estill will make Georgia one of the
best, most able and capable Governors
our grand old state has ever had.

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Local and General lena of Ships
and Shipping.
The exports of lumber from Savan
nah the past week were rather small,
being 2,492.692 feet, of which 696,519
went to New York, 485,171 to Baltimore,
and 458,346 to Philadelphia by steam,
and 852,656 to New York by steam.
The falling off is due largely to the few
sailing vessels to load. Only two
schooners cleared. In view of the large
fleet Sbound, however, the outlook for
l> me- exports is very encouraging for
the near future. According to the
SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY. MARCH 11. 1902.
Morning News' lists on Monday, twen
ty-five schooners are bound or char
tered for Savannah, and all will prob
ably be at the docks and loading within
the next ten days to three weeks. This
will call for quick work on the part of
the railroads in getting lumber from
the interior to Savannah. Reports are
to the effect that the mills are operat
ing on full time, and are turning out
lumber to their full capacities.
Capt. H. C. Daggett of the steam
ship City of Augusta, from New York,
March 7, reports that on March 8, 2 p.
m., he passed two spars on end, about
five feet out of water, thirty-five miles
northeast of Body Island, in 21 fathoms
of water. The spars were apparently
anchored by wreckage. This is danger
ous to navigation, being in the path
way of coastwise ships.
Brunswick, Ga, March 10. —The
schooner Marjorie Brown, which sailed
from this port Feb. 7. with erosstic-s
for New York, has returned here for
repairs and a supply of provisions af
ter having been adrift on the seas for
over a month. Strong northerly winds
off the east coast of the
drove the vessel toward the West In
dies and it was with great difficulty
the crew succeeded in reaching this
port.

REMEMBER YOU HAVE
DEAR ONES AT HOME
and you should make them comfortable, and you cannot do it more effect
tively than by buying one of our
PERFECTION MATTRESSES.
H| *
We guarantee them never to. get hard or lumpy, and they never have to
be made over. Think of the saving in not having to do so. To make over
any ordinary mattress will cost you $3 to $5 each time. If after you use :t
30 days you do not like it you can return. Next to having a good mattress
you must have a good spring, and the best in the WORLD is the genuine
NATIONAL WIRE.
You must look out for so-called National W T ire Springs, as they are only
infringements, as no one can sell the GENUINE but ourselves, we having
the exclusive agency of same. We forgot to mention that the Perfection Mat
tress can only be had from us. Then we have the exclusive sales of the fol
lowing: Heywood’s Go-Carts, Odorless Refrigerators, Bernstein’s Iron Beds,
Good Form Clothes Sets, Imperial Furniture Polish and Roach Destroyer.
THIS WEEK ONLY.
To get the Imperial Polish in 250 houses we will sell it for 25c a bottle:
Only ONE bottle to a customer. It is the only polish made that will not
gum or leave a streaky appearance—but will make your old furniture look
like new. (
We have only a few more of those $2.00 Rugs that we are selling for $1.25
