MONEY CON IIVUEs

Require

poses This Year.

Americus merchants and cotton m EN-
who recall conditions few years ago
when, owing to the total absence OF
cash wherewith to move the cotton
crop here, it was necessary to print
and issue ''script," will contrast them
with financial conditions now prevail
ing here.
In that eventful fell the North refus-
ed to lend The South dollar.
Our warehouses were congested with
cotton, and a So bill was as much q
rarity then as a $1,000 bill today. 1t
has not been long; during the reign of
the Stuffed. Prophet, Grover.
But the business men here, as else
where, were equal to the emergency.
The Times-R Recorders job presses
turned out money; real money; it was
guaranteed by the banks and business
houses of Amerlcus and everybody
took it as if 1t were greenbacks.
The "squeeze" in Wall street was
thus broken by the South, and soon
money again was plentiful.
But NO such conditions obtain this
year. The banks throughout Georgia
are abGndantly supplied with cash,
and money is mere plentiful IN the
South than for many years past.
For the first time in years Georgia
banks are not borrowing money where
with to move the cotton crop. Collec-
tons are good, and instead of borrow
ing money our banks have it to lend.
Never before has there been so much
money on deposit in the banks.
Verify, the South is independent of
the ''Narth'' in more ways than one.

This is the minimum, aud to it state and territo- rial legislatures and district laws may add, but they cannot decrease the re- quirement of the federal law. Many are the schemes to defeat this moder- ate demand of the government. Claims are relocated year after year by the same persons others make a mere pretense of working; still others claim work done in previous years as having been performed within the year past, but the fact remains that the govern ment requires an annual expenditure Of money or work or betterment of the claim, directly or indirectly.

No claim. holder can hold his location against an claimant if the assessment work is not actually performed accord ing to law.
