i If cotton producers need an object lesson to
' teach them that a small crop may be worth al
' most, if not quite as much, in round numliers as
’ a big one, they have only to refer to the co n i
| crops of 1889 and 1894. In 1889 the crop was
2,112,892,000 bushels, and the aggregate farm
; value of it was 8597.918,600. Last year the crop I
i was 1,212,770,000 bushels, and the aggregat’l
. farm value was $551,719,000. The crop of 1889
| was 900,000,000 bushels larger, yet it was worth
only CJ2,000,000 more than that of 1394.

Bev. M. A Matthews, after making the an
nouncements last Sundav, followed that by a
, talk on his happy associations, how he loved all
tae churches and every Christian in them,
shaking of what a bright prospect was before
I the churches of the city. He closet! with this i
1 remark: "I am happy in my associations. There 1
( are none who love the ministers of our town
' more than I do. I speak especially of those wirii
whom I am intimate, viz: Revs. Fraser, Craig-i
• hill and Dyer. They are excellent Christian, '
i Godly gentlemen. My love <or them is super'or, |
May tha. bond ever hold us.”
Tom Felker had a dream the other night. He'
dreamed that a negro was digging a well for
him, and the well caved in on hi u. Tom went :
i to rescue the negro, when be found that he had |
• lieen digging through a ricn vein of cor', and
: had discovered a tine coal mine. Berry Bowen I
.says Tom went right ti work to Utilize his
I dream. He was on a trade with a man for the |
; land, and he told him the dream and o-'ered to [
, t.:row it in gratis, if the man would buy. Bercy
I savs that such u«ns of Tom's generosity are
numerous —that when he used to live in the
country, he knew Tom to allow an old woman
to dig sassafras roots on his land. i
Georgia made the best showing of any rout'j
| ern sta e in its contributions to the Nebraska
sul'erers. Whitfield contributed a nob'e portion
'of Georgia’s donation, and would have con
tributed'in ore but for the continued bad weather
that prevented traveling about v o any great ex
tent, and limited the amount of the committees’
col’ections. Chairman Berry shipped betw~ m
100 and ) bushels of fooa crop; to Gov. Northen
I last Saturday, namely 70s; cks of corn, s x sacks ,
of wheat and two sacks neas and flour. Mr.
Berry wre especially emphatic in his praise of
the committees in the Ninth and Lower Tenth
districts: they were very active and brought in
very handsome contributions, Whitfield did '
he v part well, and the committees deserve espe- |
cial praise for their good work.

A GOOD MOVE.
The Dalton Business Men’s
League Is Organized.
THEY MEAN BUSINESS;
And Will det Down to Work at Once
—Otlicers Elected and Committees
Appointed—Meet A train Toniffht.
The Dalton Business Men’s League was
formally organized by the elec
tion of Drew M. Peeples, president, Sain
Loveman,’vice president, and Sherry Mc-
Auley, sec etary and treasurer. The
meet’ng was small, but very enthusiastic.
Those p'e.eut were: D. M. Peeples,
She i’y McAuley, Sam Loveman, C. G.
Spence , Dr. J. G. McAfee, C. E. De
-1 Joivne te, W. C. Marlin. Dr. W. E.
Wood. J. C. Gleason, G. M. Cannon, A.
H. Hodge* G. G. Glenn, Will J. Townley,
L. Eucuaolz, and several others. Com
mittees weie appointed on constitution
and by-laws, on membership, and to so
licit funds to put the plans 01 the League
into sacceLStul operauon.
Piesident Drew M. Peeples, in a talk
with the editor of The Argus yesterday,
: slid:
“Our plan of procedure will be this.
First, to get up funds to conduct the
campaign ; second, to get up statistics
givaig the advantages of Dalton as to
freight l ates, as 1.0 cheap >uel, etc.; third
; to get the council to give free taxes ten
( yeais to any industry coming here;
fourth, to seen'e a site or sites to offer
factories and other industries, and fifth
to send on a representative, or represen
tatives, to the east to see the owners of
the factories that are coming south, and
■ 1 lay our claims before their attention.
' “While these factories are our present
I objective point, we propose to keep this
’ thing up, aud in similar and other ways
• either materially benefit Dalton, or spend
some money tr ying to do so. Several
. parties'have already expressed their wil
lingneus to give SIOO each towards our
, project, and I want the hearty co-oper
ation oi The Argus and every business
man in Dalton, regardless of any differ
-1 ences that may exist. It is for all Dal-
• ton’s good, and ought to be a common
cause. I want everybody to come out to
j the. meeting Saturday night.”.
I The Argus heartily endorses this move
in the rijflu tiirectrnn’. The men con-
» nected with it are amon
