Georgia’s Financial Strength.
The State has now in its treasury
sufficient cash, together with the
proceeds of this loan, to retire the
maturing debt of $2,141,000 on the
Ist of January next, thereby, in ef
fect, curtailing its debt $241,000
and extending the residue of sl,-
900,000 at a rate of interest one
fourth less than the State is now
paying. By this means the prin
cipal of the new loan is postponed
until such stated time as it can be
conveniently paid off in instalments
of SIOO,OOO by the Sinking Fund
provided in the Act. This funding
of the debt at a lower rate of inter
est is a material benefit to the tax
payers of the State, as it saves
them in the item of reduced inter
est $570,000, which is more than
one-fourth of the maturing debt.
Under the Constitution of Geor
gia no debt can now be contracted
by the State, “except to repel inva
sion, suppress ins urrection and de
fend the State in time of war, to
pay the existing public debt, or to
supply causal deficiencies of revenue
which shall not exceed in the ag
gregate $200,000."
The total recognised bonded debt
of Georgia upon the application of
this loan is $8,585,540, which in
cludes $91,040 of bonds past due,
but not presented for redemption.
Tho interest bearing debt therefore
is $8,494,500, with an annual inter
•st charge of $462,315. Os this
bonded debt, $2,917,500 off seven
. per cent, bonds mature in 1890-2-6
which will, if renewed with four
and one half per cent, bonds at
■ same price as late loan, reduce the
j annual interest charge to $391,756,-
,• 75; or in other words save the
- State $70,558.25 a year in interest
ind reduce the principal by the
(.mount of the premium at 104|,
viz::—5125,268.75. This is a fur
ther passible benefit to be had at
the hands of this great and benifi
ccnt financial institution. Indeed
it is not unreasonable to calculate
- that the financial situation by the
late above named may warrant the
. necessary loan at four or even less.
The aggregate value of property
in Georgia by assessment of 1887, !
was $341,504,921, an increase since
1879 of $106,515,373. The propcr
i ty of colored citizens was $8,939,-
179, an increase over 1879, of $3,-
757,097; a proportionate increase
1 somewhat greater than that of the
white property holders, a fact which
I goes to show that both races are
, progressing in about equal ratio in
ownership of property, and are liv
ing in mutual harmony and help
fulness. The State tax on proper
ty in this State is 37 7-10 cents on
the SIOO of assessed valuation, a
rate reasonably low, but ample
with the other income of the State,
1 to provide for all its current re
t quirements.
The State of Georgia owns more 1
pulic property than is sufficent to
pay her public debt. The annual
rental of $300,000, derived from
one railroad which the state owns
(the Western and Atlantic, from
Atlanta to Chatanooga) would be
nearly sufficent to pay full interest
on her whole debt, funded on the
basis of this $1,900,000 loan, and
that road would sell for enough
almost to pay off her entire debt, it
being estimated at a value of SB,-
000,000, and 138 miles in length.
Apart from this is the fact that
$341,504,921 of her citizen’s prop- ;
erty is chargable with this debt of
$8,585,540. In short she owns S4O
for every $1 that she owes. Further
she cannot increase her bonded
debt, except to save the State from
invasion, defend it in war and to
provide for causal defluiences in her
State revenue not exceeding the
limited amount of $200,000.
In addition to all this is the Sink
ing Fund provision imbedded in!
her Constitution, requiring SIOO,-
000 to be raised each year to pay
off and retire the bonds of the
State, and under the same consti
tutional enactment, is pledged all
her property to pay her bonded
debt. In the language of one of her
talented sons: “You cannot find on
the continent to-day a bond that is
absolutely safer than one of Geor
gia’s four and a half per cents.
Sir, no bond ever placed upon the
market of the world was safer in
the public property pledged to se
cure it; in the sinking funds provi
ded to meet it; in the stability of I
the government that made it, or the |
good faith of the penpie pledged i
for its payment! Founded upon ■
the Constitution, issued for the le-1
gitimate needs of government under !
the authority of the representative J
Legislature and the supervision of,
law’-abiding officers of unquestioned
integrity, by a great and noble
State, an upright and honest people
revolution would not impair it!”
These bonds of Georgia bear the
face of Alexander H. Stephens, her
greatest statesman, dead, and the
sign-manual of Governor John B.
Gordon, foremost in the work of
State welfare and the impersona
tion of re-union and National res
toration.
The purchase of this large block
of bonds at a price of such materi
al advantage to Georgia, by one of
the most powerful and successful
institutions in the world, with solid
assets of $120,000,000, a great army
of 140,000, increasing at net rate of
fully 10,000 a year, guided by the
highest financial ability, is an im
portant monetary transaction, far
reaching in its effects; one that the
people of the Empire State of the
South will appreciate and recipro
cate with that spirit characteristic
ally Georgian.
No trust to faith was ever more
deeply founded. No faith to trust
will ever be more inviolate. The
Mutual Life never made a better in
vestment; in all substantial res
pects it is as good as Governments,
which are rating 20 per cent, high
er. Georgia never negotiated her
credit to better advantage. She
could not have a more powerful and
useful friend in all the world of
finance, one able to stand by her
while her pillers of state, “wisdom,
justice and moderation,” last.—

My trip to Dalton last week was
quite a pleasant one. There were
fifteen hundred or two thousand
persons present on the occasion.
Speeches were delivered by Col.
William Glenn, Rev. R. B. Headen
and General Phillips. There were J
about ninety members of the 39th j
Georgia regiment present so I was j
told by some one who learned the I
fact from the list.of names prepared
by the secretary. It was decided to
have another meeting in Dalton on
the second Thursday in August
next year.
Mrs. Sarah Roberson, wife of
Robert F. Roberson, died last Wed
nesday, the 15th of this month. She
was a true woman, and was a great
help to her husband in his business.
She was a splendid saleswoman and
often had full charge of Mr. Rober
son’s store in his absence. Mr.
Roberson is very much cast down
in consequence of her death. She
was a daughter of M. R. Hammond.

There is just twenty-five cents
difference in the railroad fare from
Trion to Dalton byway of Chatta

of Rome costs the most.
There seems to be considerable

now. I saw many very long trains

If protection makes high wages,
why is it that 1880 the wages of

THE MIGHTY SPRINKLER.
The Wonderful Little System
of Fire Protection in Roun
saville’s Warehouse.
If modern methods of protection
against fire continue to improve ns
they have done in the la-t. five years
it seems likely that the insurance
companies trill have to shut up
shop and go into some other busi
ness.
In that most delicate of all risks,
a cotton warehouse a modern sys
tem of sprinklers has reduced the
danger of fire down to a scarcely
noticable point.
A few days ago a party of gentle
men were standing in front of
Rounsaville Brothers’ splendid new
warehouse discussing matters of
interest to the welfare of the city.
“Conic in,” said Mr. J. W. Roun
saville, as the party was about to
disperse, “and let me show you the
workings of the modern sprinkler
that protects our warehouse.”
A group of gentlemen, including i
an ever-present Tribune reporter,
followed over the long stretch of
floor to the rear of the mammoth
establishment and gathered near
the rear door. From this point the
immense warehouse was spread out
before them, and from the roof
overhead a quiet looking circular
sprinkler punctuated every ten
square feet of the ample surface,
from end to end and across.
“Arc you ready,” asked Mr. 0. V.
Lamar of the house.
“Fire?” sang out Mr. Rounsaville.
And quicker than you can tell it,
every foot of these rude floors were
drenched with a storm and tempest
of rain, falling, not a gentle sprin
kle, but whirling in big pouring
drops like a sustained and over
whelming thunder shower, that
I swells the creeks and makes the
| earth a sheeted surface of water.
In half a minute there was an inch
lof water fallen upon the floor, and
' if the floor had boon solid, it would
I have been neck deep in an hour.
; It was the unanimous opinion of
! the spectators that the fiercest fire
! that ever raged could not live ten
I minutes in the watery flood that '
filled the room.
And at a signal the flood was
stayed. In an instant, in the twink
ling of an eye, these little whirling
sprinklers, “clouds pot bigger than
a baby’s land,” were “till and dry
as though there had been a summer
drought.
Great is insurance that compen
sates for loss, but greater yet is the
i sprinkler that prevents. —Tribune

An Important Announcement.
New York, May 5, 1888.
Gentlemen : I feel in duty bound
to you, as well as to all sufferers by
rheumatism, to write to you my ex
perience with this terrible desease,
1 and the use of Swift's Specific, hop
ing that, these words will be benefi
cial to all who suffered as I did.
About six weeks ago while in bus
iness, I was suddenly attacked with
excruciating pains in my feet,
knees and hands. So severe the at
tack that I took to my bed immedi
ately, and in two or three days ray
joints were swolen to almost double
their natural size, and sleep was
' driven from inc. After suffering
the most excruciating pain for a
week, using liniments and various
other remedies, a friend, who sym
pathised wit h my helpless condition
said to.me:
“Why don’t you get Swift’s Spe
, cific and use it? 1 will guarantee a
cure, and if it docs not the medi
cine shall cost yon nothing."
I at once secured the S. S. fi! . and
using it the first day, had a quiet
night and refreshing sleep. In a
; week I felt greatly benefited. In
three weeks I could sit upend walk
about the room, and after using six
. bottles I was out and able to go to
business. Since then I have been
regularly at my po-t i f duly, and
' stand on my feet from nine to ten
< hours a day, and am entirely free
I from pain. These are the plain
and simple facts in mv case, and I
( will cheerfuliy answer all inquiries
relative thereto, either in person or

Hood’s Sarsaparilla do not be induced to tako
any other. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is a peculiar
medicine, possessing, by virtue of its peculiar
combination, proportion, and preparation,
curative power superior to any other article.

and whose example is worthy imitation, tells
her experience below:
To Get
° In one store where I went to buy Hood’s
Sarsaparilla the clerk tried to Induce me buy
their own instead of Hood’s; he told me tholr’s
would last longer; that I might take it on ten
days’ trial; that if I did not like it I need not
pay anything, etc. But he could not prevail
on me to change. I told him 1 knew what
Hood’s Sarsaparilla was. I bad taken It, was
satisfied with it, and did not want any other.

When I began taking Hood's Sarsaparilla
I was feeling real miserable, suffering
a great deal with dyspepsia, and so weak
that at times I could hardly stand. I looked,
and had for some time, like a person in con
sumption. Hood's Sarsaparilla did me so
much good that I wonder at myself sometimes,
and my friends frequently speak of It.” Mrs.
