Prosperity Is There.

Orange Growers in Good shape and
Prosperity Is There.
Braidentown, Fla, Sept 2.-The farm
ers are putting in their fall crops and
from present indications will plant the
largest fall crop that has ever before
been planted in Manatee county.
Manatee county will produce the larg-
est orange crop this year that has ever
been produced in the county. For which
the growers are receiving fancy cash
prices on the tree. All the extras over and
above legitimate commissions that the
commission men get out Of them this year
they certainly viii be entitled to. Here
tofore the commission men have had a
"clnch" on our groves. but that time is
past, and if they get the fruit now they
must pay for it.
More old groves have changed hands
in this county this year than ever be-
fore, and any person owning a grove in
Manatee county can find a ready sale for
it now If he should desire to dispose of
It,
Big preparations are being made for set
ting out young groves this fall, and a
great many men who have heretofore
cared nothing for owning grove
try to make themselves groves this fall.
\ large cattle wharf is being construct
ed at the mouth of the Manatee river, for
the purpose of shipping cattle to Cuba.
The cattle men have heretofore driven
their cattle to Charlotte harbor for ship
ment, but have decided that was too far
for convenience. so they will erect a
wharf Of their own nearby.
Parties are here loking for a location
20 establish an ice plant and have al
most decided that this is a grand location
for it. Consequently the people here feel
assured that we will not much longer suf-
fer from the scarcity of ice.

eminent.
Atlanta. Ga. Sept. 2-Attorney General
Terrell has been presented with claim
for $4,000 against the state Of Georgia by
IA counsel for George H Penfeld Of
Washington.
The eommunicati lion is TO the effect that
GEORGE II. PenheId had sold the state Of
Ceoreia arms and ammunition to the
amount of $4,000. and that his claim for
this sum had been adjudicated in his ia
Vor
The letter indicated that Penfield was
under the impression that the next legis-
lature would appropriate money sufficient
10 meet this claim.
Attorney General Terrell stated that
Georgia might have owed Penield $4,000
for arms but that, under the constitution
of the United States. il was impossible to
collect such debt at the present time.
Gov. Gambler is of the opinion that the
Peufeld contract was made before the
state seeded from the union, although a
superficial examination of the executive
minutes Of that period does not disclose
the fact that such a contract was ever
made.
Gov Gambler believes that the arms
were purchased from the claimant in New
England. However before the supply
could be shipped the state Of Georgia
seeded from the union and the arms
were seized by the federal government.
