Among the northern visitors
to Bolivar this week was Col. J. Ii.
Abercrombie, editor of the Repub-

onel paid the BULLETIN Office
pleasant visit while here. He in
forms US that his visit is prompted
solely by a desire to find out some
thing about this section of country,
in order that he may write intelli-
gently of it upon his return. We
are glad to state that he is highly
pleased. 1t is his opinion that we
have fine country, but to quote
his own words: "You need fac
tories, and factories will bring
workmen. l much prefer to see an
honest workman enter my town
without a cent in his pocket, with
a tin bucket on his arm containing
his dinner, than to see a retired
farmer move in with his millions,
