The ‘Bax- NER reéaders will hear trom him ne doubt. : Can’t our city fathers give us “more light?” We need street lamps and need them very badly. The cost is very small, and it would add much to the convenience of the people in town at night. Miss Fanny Thompson = will leave Buchanan next week tor Tal lapoosa where she will make her future home, SBhe will engage in the millinery bussiness, We regret to give up so excellent a lady from our town. oo The farming neople ot 'Haralson are building for themselve better resident housex, which shows that thev are vrospering. Itir a beauti ful sight to go by a tarm and see a neat resident house, a pretty flow er vard, good out houses ete. Har alson county is ;gaining in wealsh as fast as any neghboring county, (‘ompare tax returns tor the past tew vesrs if youdon‘t believe this, It is to the interest of every citizen to build up Buchanan. - A book agent named itzsim monk was kunocked in the head Tueaday evening near Banuning Carroll county. He had imbibed too fregly of lager beer and started for Hutcherson's factory store, trom the grocery atter dark, While on the way some one knocked bru on the head and camenear kiliing. shenff Hewitt arrested a negro named Henrv Bonner the next day on suspicion of hig being the guil ty party. The Carrollton & Columbus pre ‘liminarv surveyors are within eight ‘miles of this city and are expected to be here next Tuesday. The line crosses Carroll and Heard line near Friendship church, passing one. mile east of Ruckdale post-office. It crossed the Black Jack ridge at ‘the same place of the Bowden road, runs very near Mabry post effice, .thereu‘danc%fi,m.

The man who refoices at the downfall of his tellow man may watch out. He will fll by the way swoner or later. = : Tax Receiver, H..D. Lavsetter, has a notice in this issue of the Baxyeg, He will commence at Buckanan on the Bth ot April: “Dug Down,” a l&ti{)n two milex above Felton, is_biitlding np con siderably. We netice some few business establishments (\liere. The Masonic brathren of Buch | anan are needing a hall very much. Some enterprising gentleman should build a holise and arrange a hall above. : Felton presents q'uite a lively appearance these days. Quite a number of new houses are geing up. New mills for lumber and shingles are being put down ecca sionally. The Buchanap Lumber Compa nv has shipped the broken part of theiwr plaver back te the foundry for repairs. Tne Company has many thousand M“ of lumber on THETT VIXT. . P deg oo o o 1t is given-up that old Haralson is the appie region inthe south. And so it :is. Our people should enlarge their orehords, for the de mand for the fruit is growing larg er every year. The woods wil soon be green, Pic-nics will soon be in the fash -lon and the girl of just “sweet six teen” will be happy; also the yonng man of the same age will be as near heaven as he wants to be. Tae woodman is not sparing the virgin forest. Heie the saw mill is making in roads, and the farmer is clearing a farm, and 80 it goes. We heard a gentlemau say the other day that he never saw as much Im provement going on in one county as in Haralson. » An atterney at law, not living a thousand miles trom Buchanan, left a mortgage with the clerk of the Buperior ¢ourt that a portion of it read as follows: “I hereby mortgage one brindle calf with an underbit in its left twelve months.” The hanorable clerk is anxious to fully understand this matier., A gvld and iron prospector was in the civy last week and he.informn ad the waiter that he-had not seen ncountry that had better minerai indications thaufthat surrounding Buchanan, He said that gold in paying qunautities could be obtain ad negr Buehanan: The gentleman ‘also said.tnat there was wore min erz]l around Buchanan than any town he kuew ot excepting Cedar town. Buchanan needs ¢ street. opened that will eross the railroad at ‘Moore’s blacksmith shop. The railroad has made a large fill that forever bars the town from making a street there unless the railroad authoricies will open. it out by a trestle way, and it ought to be done. The propertv just east of town is very valuable and t% anly, ‘access Yo it 15 via the depot. and the street s,outh.‘,o&che iall. Can’t some steps be taken to have the street OEen and let our land com pany take charge of the land and have 1t sold out. What say you, dear fathers, of Bychapan !, J We need small manufacturing enterprises. They would build up Buchanan faster than anything else. Let us have a sash, door and blind factory, an axe and pick han die factory, a broom factory and to.on. It would mmake Buchanan a market for all country produce and bring many workmen to town who would spend all their money with us. It will not de tor a town to de ‘pend entirely on the merchantilej interest to build it up. Let Buch- Innmx and Haralson zounty people stait these enterprises, Such xur mers as (zeo. W, Gentry, John W. Toemlinson, W. J, Brown George Bryant, Thos, Philpot, Wm. Wil ‘liams, Austim Avers. R.D..T. 8 & T. R. Latham.J. H. Stewart. S. C. Dean, W. L. Driver. S. Edwards, 4 W. Harms., G.-F. Reid, C. C, Kaves, and many other farmers that we could mention, could be induced to take stock in such factories ; it would pay thew, build ‘up the town and county. Let Buch~ anan people get a move on them selves, We netice thata good deal of hav is being shipped here. The lsnds of oid Haralson will ‘grow tine gruss and our furmers shounld take more interest in this impor tant indastry. A farmer can mnke‘l wore from: one acre in grass than ke can {tom two in cotton ana.the 'work will not be one-third ar muen. The tarmers of Carrall county gre taking a great interest in grass raising. Nearlv every tarmer in: the county has a small plat ‘sown. A tew years age. the farmers ot that .ccounty did not believe that they ‘could grow grass.on their lands, but aftera trial thex bave found out different. We hope to see our farmers take more interesuinthis matter for we are sure that they will be tully renumerated foxtherr trouble. Now, tnis paragraph may not ex actly suit the notiens of all o! ‘Buchanan’s olever people, nt we ‘believe it is true. neverthetess. Hercis what. we are going: to say : ‘Buchanan people, while lumber ix icheap, should a'l unite and buv g ‘beautiful quiet lot andl builil a first ‘class school building on. the same, ithere all unite get a good teacher. «ad all natrenize the school, try to ‘get everybody else to patronize the school, and then we will have a igood school. cne that will be a ered it to the town and county. Buch anan has two small schools; taught by extra fine teachers, but the plan sugeested above, unite both of ‘these gentlemen in the same house wour]d be much better tor the town. [f this don’t suit you, don't read it A fellow came into the BaANNER office the other day and sxidihe did not know, what was the matter with it of late. The print was bet. ter and it was check (ull of inter esting reading matter. We assur ed him that we was going to make it better, and:co we are. The same gentleman said that the Banner was tbe best amil most readable county paper he knew at. This is a specimen of how they speak of the BANNER. Suyscribe now and don’t be behind. Dr. W. W Fitts informs us that ‘the peopla are buying veryheavily ot grasses. this season: Ihikig a good sign. Just a few vears sinca very little graszes were sown in this county, now every firmier has a good patch and is preparing to make it Jarger. The soil ot Carroll is well adopted to raising grasses and: if our farmers would give 1t mors attentiowu thev 2ould make it very profitable.—Carroli Co. Times. ~ We understand that the prover tv about Kramer 1s very high— higher, possibly than the average people of this countiy is golng to ‘pay. The owners will not have to set their “sights too high,” if they desire to gell, A great many towns are ruined by property owners holding their proverty too high. A u;w&gnce, Buchanan. - It will not take long to finish the M Calman store house.if thingy movekn as they havain the past few days. Mr. Me¢,, says he is go ing to.me a daisy {ront. | Found Dead. Mr. Thomas Sims, son of Rev, T. Sime of the sixth district, was found dead in bed 3unday ‘meorn ing. Xlon.

Mrs. Sims, youngs Sins mother, did not wake ‘bim up until breakfast was ready Sunday morning when she sent for him and found him Jdead. It seems that he died without a struggle.
