Southern Bankers Tell of the
South’s Bright Prospects.
I f
t The Largest Cotton Crop Ever Pro
* duced.—Farmers Less in Debt
J than any year Since the War
It Will be a year of Jubilee
)
The Mlnuf icturers’ Record, of
August 30, 8.158: It would be difti
-3 cult to exaggerate in telling of the
■ wonderful prosperity which is before
I the South for the -next twelve
months. Cotton may" no longer be
king as in olden times, but as a sub
ject it brings to the South an amount
of wealth that is almost beyond com
prehension. For five years the cot
’ ton crop has been steadily increas
! ing, and each year has shown a gain
| over the preceding one—a record
which no other five-year period can
exhibit. In 1886-87 the crop was
[ 6,505,000 bales; in 1887-88 it was 7.-
u 46,833; in 1888-89, 6,938,000 bales,
but the number of pounds were
greater than in tiie preceding year;
in 1889-90 it was about 7,250,000
bales or over, and the indications
point to at least 7,500,000 to 8,000,-
000 bales this yeai. Notwithstand
ing the steady; increase in production
the price has advanced from year to
year on account of the fact that the
world’s consumption is fast outgrow
ing the production. The total farm
value of the last four crops, includ
ing cotton seed, was about $1,500,-
000,000 and this y ear’s crop, unless
some unforseen disaster should be
fall it, will reach nearly $500,000,000
in value, including the value of the
seed, which was a waste product a
few years ago. Thus in five years
the South will receive for its cotton
nearly $2,000,000,000.
“While cotton has been thus add
ing so enormously to the South’s
wealth, all other crops have likewise
increased. Corn, wheat, oats, tobac
co, rice, sugar, grasses, fruits and
vegetables have made great gains,
and while gome of these crops, corn
Gr instance, will this year fall a lit
tle short of last year, yet this differ
ence in the corn yield will be more
than counterbalanced by higher
prices. In fact, the Southern farm
ers have been most wonderfully’
blessed during the last five years,
and they are now in better financial
condition than the farmers of any
other section of the country. They
enter the new crop year less in debt
as a class than at any time since the
war. From all over the South the
bankers, whose letters we publish to
day, write of the ‘best outlook for
farmcrsjjince the war,’ ‘the condition
of farmers better than ever before,’
'farmers jubilant over the prospects’)
and other equally as encouraging
words. Tiie people of the South are
enthusiastic over their prospects,
and everywhere is seen life and ac
tivity. .Added to the wonderful in
dustrial progress in the South that
1 is revolutionizing the whole country
's this unprecedented prosperity of
the farmers. The following figures
' explain the reason of the South’s
agricultural prosperity:

produced about 28,600.000 bales of
' cotton, 2,000,000,000 bushels of corn.
200.000,000 bushels of wheat and
315,000,000 bushels of oats, the total
of these and other agricultural
products reaching the enormous ag
gregate of nearly $3,500,000,000.
With a cotton crop worth nearly

yield $250,000,000, $75,000,000 of
wheat and oats, added to lice, sugar,
tabacco, vegetables, Arc., the South's
■ agricultural products will this year
reach at least $1,050,000,000, or
about $460,000,000 more than in
1889. With this enormous agricul

REPUBLICANS IN SESSION.
A Committeeman Talks Freely on all
Political Questions of the Day.
The Republican Executive Com-
• mittee of Glynn county met Saturday
at noon and remained in session for
two hours and a half.
The session was a secret and The
Post went to press two early to give
the proceedings. When the com
mittee adjourned there were several
1 politicians, as well as newspaper re
porters, ready and watting to lay
■ hold of any one of the members and
> learn the result of the private con-
• sere nee.
In reply to an inquiry from a Post
reporter, as to whether the commit
, tee would want the repub icans of
the county to support Mayor Spears
for the legislation, one of the com-
- mittee said:
i “On account of the absence of
some of our strongest fellow repub
licans, that question was not put to
a vote. That is to say we did not
agree to announce that the party’
would support the candidate you
referred to.”
“What reference is to be drawn
from that?” asked the reporter.
“There could be but one.”
“And that is ”
“That the republicans of Glynn
county, or at least the most of them
will support John Spears. Now un
derstand me clearly in this matter.
I mean to say that the party is not
being compelled to vote any’ way, yet
it is evident how the vote will be
cast.,’
“Was there any discussion regard
ing the postoflice?”
“Yes, Deputy Collector Atwood
was heartily endorsed for the office of
postmaster and he will doubtless se
cure the plae?, if any' change is made
during this administration.”
“Do you doubt that a chance will
be made?”
“I seriously doubt it. To tell you
the truth the people are mighty well
satisfied with Mr. Hunter, and now
since free delivery was inaugurated I
and several republicans are employ
ed in the department, there’s no kick
ing about Ellis Hunter. That he
has made a good official and done
! much to improve postal facilties
there is no doubt.”
The reporter then questioned the
committeeman about the congress-
■ ional convent on, but he would say
nothing on that line. It was repor
ted, however, that a delegation would
attend the convention, with instruc
tions to support Doyle.

THE SLICHOTH. 1
Peculiar Holy Days Observed by
Othodox Judaism.
The Penitential Days Will Begin Next
Sunday and New Year JWill be
Inaugurated One Week.
Afterwards.
Among the peculiar hcly days of
orthodox Judaism that are observed
most rigorously in. the old world ami
in many communities on this conti
nent, though relegated in part to a
strict observance in the home circle,
are the “S’lichoth” or Penitential
Days.
The preparation for the inception
of tlic New Y'ear and the subsequent
Day of Atonement arc formally in
augurated on the first day’ of the
sixth month—Ellul, a day termed in
the Jewish calendar “Yom Kippur
Koton,” a small Kippur or atone
ment day. Among the strictly or
thordox Israelites this day is
observed with all the solemnity’ and
absence of food and drink as on the
Sabbath of Sabbath, the Y'om Kippur.
On the banks of the Rhine and in
ultra ortlrordox congregations of
Europe during the entire month ot
Ellul the particular prayers of the
Penitential Day* are uttered every
morning at daylight in the tyna
gogues. These ritualistic selections
are termed T’hilira—anglicised, con
fessional.
The services are prolonged for
several hours, as morning prayers
are said as well. An unbroken fast
is hence in order.
Monday ami Thursday are es
pecially honored, the event being the
exhibition of, and the reading of e
section from the Sefar Torah 01
Schroll of the Law, and on these d ays
the rule varying in communities, a
fast is in order for not less than a
halfday, and frequently the entire
twenty-four hours.
Among tiie peculiar customs of
foreign lands none seem more im
pressive or ludicrous, as the subject
is viewed, than the house to house
call for some self constituted author
ity, who in the “wee sma’ hours” dis
turbs the worshiper from his slum
her, and, once awakened, hies him
self to the synagogue and to the
service of Ins Maker.
During the epoch these days are
regarded as strictly holy. The le
gends, ami Judiaism aboun Is in
many salutary, weird and picturesque
idcasand lessons, specify that during
these days God judges all mankind
and metes out reward and punish
ment, to the one a full meed of pros
perity’, to the other afllctions or
death.
A happy medium is hence held
out by Judaism, inasmuch as by
j Tchuva, Tetla, Tzadaka (Penitence,
Prayer and Charity), proffered with
good intent and a pure heart the
decision of the Great Jehovah may
be in part modified or essentially
abrogated.
The S’lichoth proper for the cur
( rent year will begin on Sunday, Sept.
7- The new year will be inaugurated
Sunday, Sept. 14, while the Kippur
day follows ten days after. The
preparations for the observance of
the New Year and Day of Atonement
are now in progress and will be
unusaually impressive and brilliant.

HER EDUCATION.
A Lady In The Far West Writes
An Interesting Letter On the Subject
Os a Young Lady’s Education.
An Ideal Husband. The
* Age to Marry.
5 lhe following very interesting let
t ter wasre.'eived from a lady who lives
e in the Rockies, on the subject of a
girl's education.
I Here it is: “Leadville, Aug 22,
1890. Education Ed. Post. Bulns
wick, Ga. Dear Sir: Through the
kindness of a gentlemen connected
with '1 he Post I chanced to meet on
1 June 28, ol this year in this city, I
' have received a copy of your paper
1 containing the views of a lady of
that city on the subject of a girl’s
-e location. I can't refrain from giv-
m y Georgia sisters my views on
- this question and I herewith take
? advantage of your Columns to give
expression to my views, And 1 know
I of no better way to express them
j than to tell how I became educated
- and trained my daughter who is now
, nineteen years of age.
“Os course every mother is sup
posed teach her daughters morality
from the cradle. I taught my
daughter to read at live years, of age
1 Atjeight years she could ccok,
sew, wash aud iron, ride a horse and
shoot a revolver. Sunday schools
were uncommon at that time here.
s She was sent by me to Denver to
school at the age of twelve, and re-
1 turned home with a good education,
, and with a knowledge of flirting and
extravagance in dressing. She is
now the acknowledged belle of this
[dace. She can ride a bucking bron- i
I <ho or lasso a cow with tiie ease of 1
a cowboy, and can beat any tender-i
f foot ever in this town shooting will J
' a Remington. fl
She Ims sweethearts by the
and I try to make her enjoy liefl
4 young life as much as possible, fl
> would bet an Indian pony my daaglfl
j ter can cook better victuals, sweep al
house cleaner and can milk a
j quicker than any other girl in forty
townships.
I want to call attention here to
tiie ideal husband. A girl ought to
be able to get her ideal husband,
r considering there are about thirty
' million meu in this government to
elect from.
I dont think a parent should have
I I much hand in helping a daughter
select a husband. She had best
: marry a fellow she loves. If Sally
had married Joe Crawford as I wan
ted‘tier to do, *nd as she did not
e do, she would have been an early
j widow. Joe was hung for horse
( stealing by some peelers last July’.
e Poor Joe.
l 8 “Now 1 want to say that a girl
, e marrying at any certain age is bosh.
lt . They cant marry at twenty one years
• e of age, if no body wants them. My
„ advice is to marry whenever the op
)t portunity presents itsself. I have
e taught my daughter the celebrated
lc old maxim, “one bird in hand is
n worth two in the bush.” My daugh
ter would make a good wife for some
v nice young man and she is here now
, s waiting for him. My advice is to
t marry girls while yet you may.”
“Thanking you for the space lent
I am, Yours obediently,
“Mrs. Blanchard S ”
