WEDNESDAY. JUNE 3.
Another Firm Believer in Augusta
and Augusta Real Estate
Mr. G. P. Talbott, Augusta's newest
real estate man, was morning
by a Herald representative and asked
to give his opinion of local real estate
conditions. We quote him below:
‘Tn interviewing me at this time,”
said Mi. Talbott, "you are asking ques
tions of the “baby” of the real estate
agents of Augusta, as I am the latest
to join the ranks, and I tell you frank
ly that there are many others more com
petent than I to give expressions on the
real estate situation in Augusta.
“1 hope you will continue to get in
terv ews from our real estate agents for
your valuable Real Estate Page that
appears on Wednesday and Sunday.
Your articles are good reading and well
worth the interested consideration rs
every business man in Augusta. They
are bright, interesting, entertaining, in
structive and profitable. I-ater on 1 may
give you somethmg for these columns
of The Herald that will contain food
for thought and what I say then will
be outspoken and of a critical nature—
both as to real estate agents and to
our newspapers. Not bitter but em
phatic, for all of the real estate agents
have given me 'the glad Tiand.’
Mr. Talbott grows enthusiastic when
he speaks of advertising.
“And right here 1 might give a bit of
advice to the real estate agents in Au
gusta: They do- not advertise enough;
they do not advertise judiciously, con

NEW RECRUITING OFFICER
AT THE AUGUSTA STATION
Officer 0. F. Osborne Takes
Officer Charles’ Place—Came
Here From the Border.
O. F. Osborne is now the district re
cruiting officer at the Augusta sta
tion. succeeding Harry Charles, who
was recently transferred to the office
in Atlanta.
Officer Osborne stated this morn
ing that since the advertisements in
the press were ordered discontinued
several days ago men still come for
exarrination.
This morning there was a shipment
to the Columbus barracks, Ohio, where
they will be given a final examination,
and then assigned to the infantry,
cavalry, coast artillery, signal corps,
or w'here ever they desire being sent.
A shipment is made from Augusta
about every ten days, stated Officer
Osborne.
Augusta's new recruiting officer
comes from the Mexican border, where,
he says, everything is very quiet at
present. He was stationed at Nogales,
Ariz., with the 12th infantry, where he
was moved from San Francisco.

"NIGGER IN WOODPILE."
Atlanta, —The whole board of Fulton
county commissioners is now formally
on record as favoring a searching in
vestigation Into the charges of graft,
favoritism, maladministration and in
competency Arhich have been lodged
stainst those who have in charge the
direction of the county's affairs.
Some of the commissioners believe
there is "nigger in the woodpile" and
want to see him forced out into the
light while others believe that there
is no graft or maladministration, but
that since the charges have been made,
public has a right to an investiga
tion to clear the matter up.
sistentlv, consecutively, nor, well,
that will do for the present.
“No, I'll add just a few more words
on the point of ‘not enough.’ 1 am
using more syrace in the local papers
than is be ng used by many well-estab
lished firms. In my humble opinion it
is the only way in which to sell real
estate, whether in Augusta. Albany Osh
kosh, Oklahoma, NcAth Augusta, or in
any other city. And so lam wondering
why more Augusta agents de not use
more advertising space. It is the best
and cheapest selling force that can be
obtained.
“But, some one will say. I am more
of an advertising writer than I am a
real estate writer—possibly so. Be that
as it may, we must hand it to The
Herald for its Heal Estate feature every
Sunday and Wednesday. It is causing
comment that is not only benefit ting
real estate agents, but every one else
in Augusta; for real estate is the reai
basis for a city’s progress.
“1 am a ‘booster’ for Augusia Real
Estate.
“I believe, with the protection from
high water that we now have assured,
we will have in a few years one of the
best and most progressive cities in the
South. We already have one of the
most beautiful in the whole country.
Heal estate is going to rapidly enhance
in value and I firmly believe there is
not a better investment, all things con
sidered, than Augusta dirt.”
