A DEAD LETTER.

It is fact that the homestead law
has about gone into disuse. The
right to waive the homestead has
knocked the stuffing out of it, and
it is now lean and lank and won
stand up and defend itself. In Cobb
county there hasn't been but four
homesteads taken out in four years,
an average of one year. The law
is getting 10 be a dead-letter, be-
cause people are beginning to see
that it puts them and their
property in a shape where they can
never get credit, consequently, they
prefer to cucumber their property
by mortgage and waive all home
stead rights, than to be put down
on the black list. What we want
in this country is confidence between
man and man. Laws that will pro-
tect honest men and not put a pre-
MUM on dishonesty will do that.
Let us encourage honesty by deal>
ing honestly by one another, and
there will be more favors shown and
more help extended to a struggling
brother. AS much as the complaints
are, when probed to the bottom, you
will find the people in better con>

HE Is RIGHT.

Sam Jones writes to a Georgia
paper as follows:
II am frequently asked, (Which
section of the country do you like
best?".
There can be but one answer,
each section, north, south, east and
west has its comparative advantages
and disadvantages.
For fruits, flowers, stock and win
ter climate, give me California.
For the most fertile soil give me
the Mississippi delta.
For climate and soil give me the
SouthW estern States.
For prosperous, frugal citizenship,
give me the rural districts of Ohio,
Pennsylvania and New York.
For immense wheat crop and biz
yards, give me the Northwest.
For vegetables and oranges, leis>
ure and laziness, sunshine and sand,
pines and poverty, give me Florida.
But when it comes to climate and
soil, morals and manhood, cbattels
and children, draw circle one hun
dred miles around Atlanta, Ca, ana
you have the ideal section of Amer
lea"
AS this takes in Marietta, Sam
Jones, as usual, is right about it.

HE WOULD NOT.

Mr.. EDIToR-Would Third Par
ty man he entitled to vote in a Dem
ocratic primary? A VOTER.
Certainly not. When a man
leaves one party and joins another,
he cannot shape the policy of both
parties. A Democrat could not
vote in Third Party primary, nor
neither could Third Party man
vote in Democratic primary. any
moro than a Republican could vote
in a Democratic primary or a Demo
crat vote in Republican primary.
Each party is separate and distinct
and each party has an organization
of it's own. A man can not belong
to all three of the parties, or any
two of them, at the same time. He
is either a Democrat, Republican
or a Third Party man. Neither can
Third Party man serve on a Dem>
ocratic Executive Committee. The
Third Party Executive Committee is
the one he must affiliate with. Each
party must be shaped by its own ad-
herents. He that is not for the
Democratic party is against it.

AN OFF YEAR FOR COTTON GROW.

The cotton crop of 1890 was the
largest ever made to that time.
The cotton crop of1891 was larger
than that of 1890.
The cotton crop of 1892 will ex.
coed that of 1891.
The area of cotton production is
constantly increasing by the open
ing up Of new and fertile lands in
Texas and Arkansas.
The production in the old states
is constantly increasing through the
use OF costly fertilizers and better
cultivation.
In the old states it costs eight
cents pound to make cotton.
The price OF cotton now is barely
six cents for the better grades.
The price next season cannot be
expected to be better than it has
been this.
1t is evident that the farmer who
makes least cotton this year will
lose least money.
1t is evident that the farmer who
makes no cotton this year will be
best off.
The cotton crop is not pitched
yet, and those who will may profit
by turning their lands to corn, po-
tatoes, and anything else they will
produce.
