The Wrightsville and Tennille Railroad
Company declared its usual per cent

The marked falling off in both freight and

President j. S. Wood estimates the de-
crease in gross earnings July I, 1891, to
July /, 1892, approximates $4,000. cons
pared to the previous year, but operating
expenses will show falling off of about
$4,000.
Mr. Wood says the falling off in the use
Of fertilizers in the Wrightsville and Ten
Mile section of Georgia this year, compared
with last, has been about 40 per cent, and
the decrease in acreage of cotton planted is
thought to be Is to 20 per cent.
The planters OF that section felt the effect
of low prices very severely in the sale Of
last years. cotton crop, aud are applying
unusual economy to their business methods
this year.
The importation of Kentucky and Ten

Very Interesting.

Christopher Gray, our resident New
York buyer. shipped US over 200 dozen
gents half hose in solid blacks, navy blues
and browns, in silk and Isle threads; also in
stripes. Worth honestly so and Is cents,
which he wrote US to slaughter at % cents a
pair. He bought them to run at that price
in conjunction with our big sale that takes
place tomorrow morning, June Is. We
just want you to see them, and when you
put your hand on them you will buy them.
We limit each customer to one-half dozen
pair, as we expect this extraordinary drive
to do us great deal Of good by being talked
about among those who all will be fortunate
enough to take advantage of this grand
offer. Could we have got 500 dozen we
would have bought them. But we got all
we could, and you will see no more of them
at % cents pair. Our double-column ad-
vertisement, on page in to-day's issue, we
call your attention to for perusal of dry
goods bargains. We mention a few to in

mention you may want; you will get a big
bargain, as this will be genuine unloading

Steer Clear OF Pirates.
You don't believe?
Almost an infidel in some matters, aren't
you!
Can't blame you.
Generally ''size up" things before reach

IT'S in everything-from the obscurest
paths Of private life TO the highest piunacles
of public display.

Can you deprive the polecat of his anti
Lubinic privileges, or the jackass of his
bray! Nay 1t were madness to try. And
yet the bucolic victim is always at hand and
the buncoer on deck.
Bah 1t makes one tired. o! 80 tired to
think that the idol "Humbug" still has his
worshipers. This is the age of investiga-
tion-INvEsTIGATE, ExAMINE-search for
yourself, get wheat not chaff. We are we'll
satisfied with the success of our annual re-
ductton sale. 1t is a good thing-not because
we say So but because public inquiry and
examination has branded it so. We promise
great deal. You have found more than
we promised. It's our ambition to disap-
point youth that l0ay. We offer, and
continue to offer, irst-class fashionable

We've had that reputation several years,

Little interest is manifested with regard
to the state house officials. There is a pros
poet of another fight between Nesbitt and
Henderson for delegates. Each has warm
friends here. The commissioner seems to
be in the ascendancy though. At the last
mass meeting it was questionable whether
he or MIR. Henderson received the most
votes and it may be that the latter's sup
porters will develop unexpected strength at
the primary. Outside Of this, there does
not seem TO be any prospect Of contest
over the Atlanta offices.
Chairman Charlton believes that for
economy's sake all the delegates to the sew
eral conventions, as well as the legislative
candidates. should be elected at the same
primary. The congressional delegates, of
course, will be for Col. Lester. No one
questions his denomination and reelection,
even If the third party. as now seems prob
able, does put a candidate tn the field.
