Is What Enos Kimmel Says. Among
Other Interesting Things In a
Letter From. Atlanta.

Our old friend Enos Kimmel agaiI
favors us with letter telling of inter
esting things he sees and hears about
the country. This time he writes from
Atlanta, Georgia, where he has beer
since the middle of December. OF
Atlanta he says:
II truly found great city of wealth
the wealthiest in the SOUTH solid built
with many sky scrapers from twelve tC
seventeen stories high. 1t is head
quarters wholesale city, entered by
seven railroads, and has a population
of 100000 souls, one-half of whom are
negroes. No river flows near the city
and its water Snpply has to BE pumped
, eight miles FROM the Chattahoochee
river.
re negro element causes much
trouble and very often the law is not
allowed to take its course with the
offenders. During the holidays the
authorities arrested 260 negroes for
more or less serious offenses. They are
all thrown together in a stockade. and
sold to the mine contractors for 25c per
day. Most of these negroes are mulattoes.
There appears to be no state law pro-
hibiting this mixture of races, which
threatens in short time to exterminate
the negro entirely, much to the detri-
ment of the population. Some of the
cruelties inflicted upon this dusky race
were divulged to me, believing l was a
negro hater. One instance was the
poisoning of forty men by means of
corn meal sold to them containing some
deadly drug. AT another time blood
hounds were put on the track of a
negro deserter who was literally torn to
pieces by the ferocious brutes. And
this all in civilized America.
The state of Georgia is the poorest |
have vet visited from an agricultural
standpoint The northern part is broken
and mountainous and the land won't
produce one fourth of crop. Oats are
sown in the fall and only yield about
ten bushels to the acre. No wheat
is raised here. On entering the state
from the north no green vegetation is
seen for hundreds of miles excepting
some cabbage palmettoes. The south
has the climate. but Michigan is the
garden of the world. Stay where you
can get your bread and butter unless
you have fat pocketbook to pay a big
price for smelling the cooking of north

At the December scoring test for
Michigan butter and cheese held in
Grand Rapids, the Central Michigan
Produce Co. received the highest score
of the gathered cream factories of the
state. This not only speaks well for the
big Alma creamery, but is equally COM

them the cream. The next scoring test

of January and the first two days in
