day no cotton produced in the State raoks
higher than that which comes from her
plantation.

North Georgia, which point Is being com

sired by Knoxville. The connection VIII be
made al Murphy, Knoxville having voted
sq15.O0O with the understanding that MUIR
phy should be the point. The necessary
survey has been made, and all preliuiinar'es
arranged for building road from Cbatfa-
nooxa to Murphy"
Murphy has quite reputation az a sum-
mer resort. Can you give some OF Its pecu-
liar sdvantsges?"
EYES; Murphy Is about ] 200 feet above
the sea. The climate Is Unsurpassed. The
thermometer seldom or never ranges sDovc
seveuty.two degrees during the day, and the
nights are cool and pleasant, with no mos
quitoes 10 disturb your rest. The scenery Is
EQUAL TO ANY IN GEORGIA
or North Carolins. and that Is saving great
deal. The wateris pure and bealthfnl. The
town being located at the confluence Of tne
Hiawsssee aud Kowaheeta (Vsliey) rivers,
both remarkably beautiful streams and
sboundng in fish, the pleasure-seeker has
ample opportunity for successful fishing;
besides the woods abound in game OF all
kinds. In short, more desirable resort
conId not be found bad we the necessary no.
tel facilities, which, unfortunately. are sadly
lacking. AS an evidence, will say that no
less then three hundred applicants have failed
to secure accommodations already this sum-
mer.
YETURE HAS BEEN LAvlsH,
but her people have been unappreclstIye,
else we would not f,el this important want.
am satisfied, however, that THIS summers
experience will induce others who have
cspltsl, II our own people do not, to cons
struct ample accommodations ere another
season opens"
