Official Announcement.
Ga. Statk AoricultukalSocikty,)
Secretary's Office, >
Macon, Ga., October (l, 1888. )
The Georgia State Agricultural So
ciety through its Fair Committee,
have fixed the dates for holding the
Annual State Fair on November 5th
to November 10th., 1888, at Central
City Park, Macon, Ga. Ail fear of
yellow fever having subsided, and
tlie country having recovered from the
effects of the recent floods, all obsta
cles to suocess have been removed.
Our premium l|pt is full and com
plete embracing everything in farm,
garden and orchard products, homo
industry, needle-work, fine arts, rub
chinery, live stock, poultry, doge,
bees, etc. Our grounds are the boot
in the south, and unsurpassed in
America. Oar race track has no su
perior anywhere. Oar stalls for
stock are uew throughout and on the
most Improved plan. Iu fact we
have ample aooommodation for all
comers in every department. The
books are now open, and wo respect
fully urge that entiles be forwarded
to the Secretary at once to Avoid
rush and confusion. For premium
list and full information address the
Sec’ty,
W. J. Northkn,
Rout. A. Nisbkt, President.
Secretary.
The South Carolina Republicans
asked Governor Richardson to allow
them a commissioner of elections. He
replied that their request could not
be complied with, giving as a reason
that there are no men honest enough
iu the South Carolina Republican
ranks to manage an election. This
was pretty heavy on the applicants
and the more so because of its truth.
“Robert Anderson, aged 18 years,”
reads a dispatch from Pottsville, Pa.,
“is lying at the point of death at his
father’s house, as the result of a heart
trouble produced by cigarette smok
ing.” Deaths caused by cigarette
smoking are quite common, but tlie
manufacture of cigarettes is not oft the
decrease. Of course the manufactur
ers will make them as long us the de
mand continues.
A collision on the Lehigh Valley
Railroad occurred on the 10th, in
which sixty-three persons were killed.
Severe and certain punishment for
j accidents would lessen the number
to a wonderful extent. They are us
ually the result of carelessness, and
carelessness that endangers human life
is a crime that should be punished.
Excursion trains seem to be peculiar-
• ly subject to, accident, owing proba
bly to the la^t that the railroad em
ployees partake of the so-called ‘good
cheer’ of these demoralizating occa
sions.
As will be seen from the above the
State fair is “on” again in all its
glory. We are assured by Secretary
Nisbet that the prospect is unusually
bright. The postponement has
gained a special advantage in the
matter of live stock and the races.
The entries iu both these depart
ments will be much larger than they
would have been in Ootober.
The dates as they now stand form a
good racing circuit, with Macon in
the lead followed by Columbus and
Augusta in order named. Tills as
sures tlie best races seen in Georgia
for many years, which alone will be
wortli a trip to Macon.
MclntcBh, Talbot and Hancock
Counties are in the race for the
♦1,000 premium, with a very strong
probability that Houston will follow
suit: thus you see there will be no
lack of interest, information and
amusement for all.
The Sate Fair belongs to the people
of Georgia, and the people of Georgia
should see to it that there are full
exhibits and big crowds.
Isolations Sure Preventive of Yellow
Pever.
Decatur, Ala, Oct, 8.—Dr. Jerome
Cochran, state health officer, reports
ns follows:
“There have been two now cases,
both colored reported to-day. Dr
Williams and Lizzie Jackson are dy
lug.
“Allow uie to say a few words for
the future now while they will be read
and remembered. All cases come from
j exposure in the infected district or
| to tlie sick. No exposure, no yellow
I fever. If you keep away from the fire
1 you won’t get burned. Absolute
| isolation is absolute safety. There
is no need of stampedes, no need of
panics. Instead of running away let
every man isolate himself and family
in his house and out off all inter
course with tlie world outside and lie
will remain safe in theinidst of an epi
demic.”
Tlie most pitiful scenes are daily oc
curring at Jacksonville. Here is just
one selected out of dozens even more
heart-rending:
J. L. Rlliott, husband of Mrs. El
liott, who died yesterday in Spring-
field of yellow fever, is sick, and is at
tlie Sand Hills, and knows nothing
of his wife’s death.. He saw his wife
alive on Sunday, just before he was
taken out to the hospital. The shock
resulting from her husband’s sickness
caused Mrs. Elliott’s sudden death.
She was very weak and was just get
ting over a severe attack of tlie fe
ver.”
It Won’t Bakk bread.—In other
words Hood's Sarsaparilla will not do
impossibiltes. Its proprietors tejl
plainly what it has done, submit
proofs from sources of unquestioned
reliability, and ask you frankly if you
are suffering from any disease or af
fection caused or promoted by impure
blood or low state of the system, to
try Hood’s Sarsaparilla, The exper
ience of others is sufficient assurance
that you will not be disappointed in
the result.
Major W. L. Glessner and the Geor
gia exhibit car arrived in Macon Wed
nesday night from an extended tour
to the county and state fairs of the
West. He went on to Americas. Tlie
car will be exhibited at the State
fair.
Judge Thurman’s formal letter of
acceptance was received yesterday; it
is a brief^but strong document. We
will publish it in our next issue.
The Fever.
Saturday's record showed the small
est number of new cases since the fever
started at Jacksonville. There were
31 uew cases and 3 deaths.
On Sunday, at Jacksonville, there
were only 18 new cases and two
deaths from the fever Total cases
up to yesterday, 3,544. Total deaths
813, about an average of one death to
every 11 cases.
At Decatur, Ala., there were on the
14th, two new cases, and one death.
There was a frost there on that day.
Hta. X. T. Calvin.
Mr. Oalvin, of Riohtnond, will be
th* only member In the next Georgia
Houee of Repreaentativeswho has been
in tho Legislature continuously since
1883. Mis election for a fourth term is
a just recognition of faithful acid able
servloe to his constituents and the
stati. Mr. Calvin baa distinguished
himself in every LegMIature of which
be has been a member. We learn that
he will bo a candidate for speaker pro-
tom, of tlie House. No better selec
tion could be made. He lias often pre
sided over tlie deliberations of the
House, and always in a most accept
able manner
HOW TO OVERCOME THE DAN
OERS OF EXPOSURE.
Erancis O’Reilly, tlie well-known
liveryman of No. 18 Prince street, New
York, says of Allcock’s Porous
Plasters:
“For the Inst forty-two years I
have been engaged in the livery and
hacking business. I am greatly aided
by my four boys. We are much ex
posed to the weather, and we have
found Allcock’s Plastkhs of very
great service. We use them as chest
protectors, placing one on the chest
and one on tlie pit of the stomach.
They not only ward off the cold, but
act as a tonic.
We are frequently affected with
rheumatism, kinks in tlie back, and
pains in tlie side; but one or two of
Allcock's Plastkhs quickly cure us.
My wife and daughter have been
using Allcock’s Plasters for weak
back and think the world of them. I
have now been using them for twen
ty years, and always have a box in
the house."
From the Capital.
We get the following from the Con
stitution of last Saturday :
Hon. A. 8. Clay, of Cobb, Hon.
Fleming G. duBignon, of Chatham,
and Dr. Tbeopliilus O. Powell, the
principal physician of the. lunatic asy
luin at Milledgeyille, called oh Gov-
ernorlGordon yesterday afternoon.
Heriutor Alfred H. Colquitt got
back from Washington, yesterday.
He dined with Governor Gordon at
tile mansion, yesterday afternoon.
At the comptroller-general’s offiee
yesterday $28,000 in taxes were record
ed from the Central ruilroad and $420
in taxes from the Rome and Decutur
railroad.
Lectured Crawford, tlie negro who
was defeated for the legislaturein Mc
Intosh county by H011. C. M. Tisop,
filed yesterday a notice of oontest in
tlie executive department. He claims
that T.ison was elected by. illegal
votes; • ; ..
Tlie negro Crawford was a member
of the last legislature and his
speeftii oh the disabled soldier bill is
well rpmembered. Among other
tilings lie said:
“The United States government
has pensioned her soldiers, both white
and black, who fought for lier
in the war. I do not see why Georgia
should not pension her wounded
veterans, although I am well aware
that my race will not get a dollar of
pension money.
