HoUsroNs PROSPERITY.
Northern Capitalists Negotiating for
100000 Worth of Land.

100000 Worth or Lana.
FoRr VALLEY. GA. Oct. n.--From tbs
best estimates taken from the deals now
pending, there will be fully 100000 in
vested in Houston county lands by northern
and eastern PEOPLE this fall and winter
But, owing TO the misfortunes of the Cen
trail railroad in having their commissioner
| Of immigration removed by the Richmond
J and Danviie authorities, very small
amount will be invested along its
lines. Through Maj. W. L. Gless-
ner, who is now commissioner OF
| immigration for the Georgia Southern and
/ Florida railroad, all the foreign money com
ing to Houston county is going along the
line of that road to Wellston, BonaIre,
GrovAnia, and Kathleen. Many tobacco
growers and hortioulturists are being at
trsoted to these points through the work
and influence of Maj. Glessner and the
Georgia Southern aud Florida railroad
management.
Our people are sorry that the Central rail
road has no immigration agent to visit the
north and east to induce settlers to come
out and buy lands along its lines. Look at
the business given the Central railroad from
this point last summer on account of its
having had an immigration agent They
handled fully 100 carloads of fruit, ETC.,
they would never have handled had it not
been for the work Maj. Glessener did as i'm
nlRTdJlOu aReut.
Now that the system is about to be re-
habilitated, our people hope it will employ
a first-class immigration agent, and send
him north at once to bring down parties of
prospeotors. IL they cannot see such a
scheme to their interest, the wealthy fruit
growers Of Ohio, New York, Wisconsin,
Michigan and Connecticut, who own
orchards here, propose building a line
nineteen miles long, and connect
Fort Valley with the Georgia
Southern and Florida railroad
at Wellston. They have ample
capital to do this aud will certainly do it
unless the Central railroad, when it is re-
habilitated, shows more literality than 1t
did under the management OF the Rich
mond and Danville system. They can
build this line for a very small sum and can
equip it much better than the Perry branch
is equipped. The people here are not
going to remain idle and submit TO the mo-
ton Of any one railroad any longer. They
have men Of ample means who will build
railroads 20 enhance the property they own
here. and it is hoped by all of our old resi-
dents that the Central will come in without
any petition, and hold the business. Farm
ers around Fort Valley ought to sell $50, 600
worth Of their lands this fall but they will
not do so unless the Central railroad can in
duce several prospecting parties to come
down here and view the chances of laying
the foundation for fortune. The cotton
crop is nesrly all harvested in this section
and good judges say there is not over half a
crop made.

IRWIN'S PAPER HARD UP.
BE AND TWO OTHER employees
CALL FOR BACK PAY.

Laborers' Liens Filed Against the
Plant of the Southern Alliance
Farmer-The Papers Withdrawn to
Prevent the Property From Passing
Into Other Hands.
ATLANTA, GA, Oct 1l.-Three laborers'
liens were filed against the Southern ALI
o,1ce Farmer this morning which amount
10 g.. 4O4. The liens were filed Dy Editor NJ.
d. Irwin aud two of the employees, who
were paid salaries. The first lien filed was
by Editor Irwin, who claimed that the pa
per owed him 81 ,666, and that the debt was
for bis salary, which amounted to Sl66 q
month. He states that he has labored faith
fully and fulfilled his part Of the contract
with the Alliance Publishing Company, but
has failed to collect his salary.
The other two claims are for smaller
amounts, the largest being fled by c. O.
Peavy. who was employed as a typesetter
at salary of S25 week, and who claims
that he now has 1928 due him.
r. L. Peavy, who was employed as a
mailing clerk and typesetter at salary OF
SIS week, claims $40 as his portion due
and unpaid.
THE CLAIMS WITHDRAWN.
When the papers were sent from the
sheriff's office, to be put into execution, the
gentlemen who had fled them asked that
the property be left in the hands OF the
present owners and, when the privilege was
refused, they they withdrew them. They
left the matter in just the same situation
that it was before the papers were filed.
The Alliance Farmer, which should have
appeared on last Friday, has not yet been
printed, and Will not be until this new
trouble is settled satisfactorily.
IRWIN TALKS.
Editor Irwin says; 1--WE simply took
these steps to protect ourselves. The claims
now stand on record. l have put some
money into che paper and can only expect
to get back what is due me in salary The
Livingston faction have been making an
effort to secure possession Of the paper and
this step may prevent it."
Mr.. Irwin saws the recent tribulations Of
the paper are due to the hot fight Col Liv-
ingsUon has made on 1t since 1t forsook the
legitimate path as the organ Of the alliance
pure and simple.
