THE HUSTLER OF ROME, WEDNESDAY OCTOBER, 24 1894.
KUSH NG (OITON TOO FAST
The N*w Orleans Picul line is of
the opiu ion t hat i he farmers of Ihe
South are hurting themselves by
crowding the market with the con
n n at the prese i ruinously low
prices The ) supply is so
[urge that the buyers can get col
ton practically at their own price.
The Picayune says:
“As sure as rec»-iptH show symp
toms of diminishing, t s they sure
would did the farmers stop ship
ping even to a very modern extent
there will be a reaction iu prices,
and specula'ors will’take hold.
With anything like moderate spec
ulation, prices must advance rapid
ly, as present values are actually
below the point warranted by a
crop as large as 9,000,000 bales.
At present prices there is a profit
to no one but the spinner who pur
chases to accumulate a cheap sur
plus stock. Foreign spinners fui y
appreciate their o) p irtuuity, {and
they are purchasing’in Liverpool
at the rate o' 15,000 bales per day
and more.”
The city council of Macon has
given the barrooms permission to

By all means let Macon’s City
council reconsider, and do so
promptly and before this abomina

triment to “the biggest fair in the
United States this year.”
It is said that Editor Douglass
Glessner of Griffin, is to be the,
secretary of the executive depart

while Editor Dortch will be his
private secretary.—Atlanta Jour

tenants and deserve the recogni
tion.
The Sparta Ishmaelite wants to

they got. Georgia should not be
niggardly in her pay to her higher

MANY ABE CALEB BUT FEW GET
THERE
The question of a legislative cau
cus being settled, thereby making
it certain who will beofficersof the
two houses, whde the senatorship
election is two weeks off, the in
terest of the political public is
meantime being centered on Gov
ernor Atkinson’s appointments,
some of which must soon be an
nounced.
There are many applicants for
almost every office in sight,though
it does not necessarily follow
that the appointment may not go
to [some one unknown to public
mention. There is only one thing
that may be depended upon and
that is that the new governor will
make the most fit appointment for
each position that he can with the
lights before him:the test of mer
it will be severely applied in every
C i«b.
It is therefore a 'bold editor who
will prophesy, in advance • of any I
assurance possessed by the appli
cant himself as to what person '
will fill any particular office. But I
it is likewise a poor editor who is j
not occasionally bold, and tomet f
them are already holding up their
bauds and singing '>ut whit they
know. The Americus Times Re
corder approaches the matter gent
ly under Jibe safe cover of “it is
said,*’ though wehave it said
nowhere else:
“It is said that Editor Douglas
Glessner, of Griffin, is to be the
i secretary of the executive depart
ment under Gov. Atkinson, while
Editor Ellen Dortch will be his
private secretary. The editors are
bound to have the earth and tl e
fullness thereof.”
We fear Editor Myrick has mate
a double break this ‘time. While
the editors are entitled to the
earth, they generally get a very
small slice; and the editor of this
paper, already possessing the Sun,
has no asperations for small things
terrestrial. As for Editor Dortch,
there are other places less public
for one of her sex that may suit
her nearly as well as private sec
retary, for which she has made
such a brave canvass.
The Hustler of Rome approach
es the matter more boldly. It
says :
“Now watch the big-hearted
clever Jake Moore win the appoin:-
meut of principal keeper of ( e
penitentiary, Jake M< ore will add
more to the strength of the admin
istration than any other one ap
pointment which Governor Atkin
son can make
There are many people who will
agree with the above, and maybe
still more with this that follows
»
which might have been put under
Editor Byrd's “Kluster of Bull
Eyes: ’’
The Hustler of Rome predicts
that Tom Crenshaw will succeed
Gunby Jordan on the railroad com
mission. No man in Georgia is
more eminently qualified to fill
he place than Tom Crenshaw
and no man iu the state deserves
the place more.’’
Without taking issues with the
good judgement of the Hustler,
we are willing to r k our reputa
tion and good fat wallet, with pass
es well lined, that we can name
an appointment more certain than
any of the above.. We wager in ad
dition to the above stakes,a grossjof
cedar pencils agairsst a pair of of
See ecissois that Editor Phil Byrd,
of Rome, is made a member of the
governor's staff.
For, whatever may be said of
others, this is certainly one ap
pointment that will stand all the
tests and meet the approbation < f
the many throughout the State
who know and admire the gallai t
captain of the Hill City Cadets.
It will be a sufficient satisfaction
for any small contribution that we
may have made toward such a re
sult, to stand on the News and
Sun balcony next summer and are
