The Lucania then held the best maiden record

Ices than twenty-four hours later however,

that same sister whom she had defeated IN
her eastward trip. When the Campania
reacbed New-York at 1925 o'clock last night
she had lowered the westward record, held by

The Iucania left New-York early lest Satur-

The Lucania daily runs were Zs 4so' aos' oVo

Lucania's speed is only a little over twenty
three hours this 500 is really equivalent 10 ABOUT

The Campania left Liverpool last Friday,

LUCANIA'S FAST VOYAGE.
The Campana's daily runs were as follows:
45s. 517. 524 52S 5SS and 23S. This makes the
total distance of 2,7s6 knots. and gives her an
average speed of 2O.SS knots per hour. There
are only two averages higher than this: the 21:Ol
made by the Lucania on her last trip, and the
Pip that was the Campanias own average on
a previous trip.
The Cunard people are naturally much elated
at the success of their boats, and look for
even more startling results In the future Fol-

1t Is a curious fact that while the Campania
has crossed the ocean in both directions in less
time than any vessels except the Paris and the
Lucania, and has made the highest average
speed for the trip ever made, she has never
before held the westward record and held that
to the eastward only month.
The following dispatch announced the Lu-
cania's triumph:

Der IA for Liverpool arrived here at 4:24 o'clock

The time Of her passage was days l9

The Perry Home Journal says the con-
ditions are decidedly propitious for the
people of Georgia to attend to their own
business, and people who attend to their
own business persistently are generally
prosperous.
At first glance this may appear flip
pant. but it is not so intended.
Just ahead of us is democratic ad-
ministration of federal affairs, and there
is no need for the people generally to
bother themselves about national poll
tics. We can rest assured that federal
affairs will be properly managed, and
that the interests of the people of Geor-
gia will be carefully guarded at Wash
ingtoe by the solid democratic delega-
cation there 1epres 9nting the Empire
State of the South.
The state offices are filed by able men,
true democrats, and the various county
Offices have been filled bya vote of the
people. There will be no more elections
this year, and the Legislature will not be
in session again until the fourth Wednes-
day in next October. Therefore, there is
no need for politics in any form to inter
fere with business to any degree what
ever.
With politics out of the way, wise and
energetic application to business will
bring prosperity to every section OF this
great state, throughout which the ele-
meuts of success abound. Of course
there will be hindrances to many, provi-
dental or otherwise, but to the great ma
jority the way is clear for npObstructed
devotion to business. Let each man use
the talents ent listed to him, and the
result will be profitable many fold. With
the opportunity now carefully consider
ed, and wisely used, and the operations
repeated continually throughout the
year, success will surely come. Failure
will rot come without sufficient cause.

I(uiId Factories,

If cotton can be carried from the fields
of Georgia to England and there be turn
ed into cloth and then shipped to all
quarters of the globe and dividends be
earned by the mill owners it stands to
reason that still greater dividends can be
earned by mills in sight of the fields.
Our people ought to have cotton facto-
rios in every good-sized community in
the state BY proper management they
can be made to pay.
At Fall River, Mass, so mills, operated
however by only SO companies, with an
aggregate capital of $40, SIS, 900, paid ont
in dividends in 1892 $40, 155, 0O0 making
an average of II per cent Besides, it
may be taken that these mills laid aside
quite a sum for surplus and for new ma
chinery. New mills, it is said, are being
erected with the profits of the old ones.
Six per cent is, however, deemed fair
return for mill property.
What is being done in old and New
England can be done in Georgia and in
Dawson.

Hog Raising in Southwest Georgia.
Hog raising used to be one of the lead :
ing indus tries of this section, and is
bound to be again before pr )sperity be-
gins. Those of our farmers who have
tried it are confident that no farmer can
be prosperous who annually buys his
meat.
Some of our farmers who keep their
smokehouses at home say they have
always found it cheaper to raise meat
t han to grow cotton and buy it.
This season a number of farmers in
Terrell comfy have killed hogs weighing
from 200 to 400 pounds each. Most OF
these farmers never buy pound of meat.
They live well and are the most prosper
GUS farmers in the county. With the
same care and attention to their hogs
almost any of our farmers can do the
same thing.
We have mentioned the weights of
several hogs killed in this county re-
Gently, one of them weighing in the
neighborhood of 700 pounds. Such large
hogs are not the best for food, but we
mention this simply to show what can
be done here in the way of making on r
meat at home instead of sending to the
West for it.
