Athens Banner; If some OF our suburban
land owners would come down a notch On
prices they might get many purchasers who
would take the lands and improve them in the
way of grape culture and truck farming De-
spite hard times there are many men who
would scrape together enough money to go
into this business and thus help themselves,
their city and all concerned. Let induce
ments be held out TO the people to settle ND
the farm lands around Athens. and the move
ment, II made successful viii enhance the
values OF all additional lands, and do great
good in building up the interests Of the city.
Let the experiment be tried.

the others VIII average along from $50 TO 200
pounds. Mr.. Young runs four mule farm.

meat, and that estimate is low enough what
money crop il Will be to him. If he gets 10
cents a pound that means g 800. a big part Of

enow there were hard times, unless he read
about il in the papers.
Rome Tribune: From many quarters come
indications that the unemployed are consider
ing very foolish measures to obtain relief
They are threatening TO invade Washington
and demand that congress give them work
or bread. The New York rioters actuated
by anarchist leaders, wanted to walk in a
body 10 Washington. The idle workmen out
west are talking ofsending delegations to CON
fer with the congressman. Then there are
others, not unemployed laborers but gov
errors and citizens OF exalted station who
want the south and west to meet in eonven-
ton and determine what is best to be done.
This Is not only very foolish but it is dan
gerous. such things are the first symptoms
OF disruption and war. II always begins with
the public meeting and the bowling mob and
ends with the militia and the battle field.
