SOUTHWEST FAIR
COMES To A CLOSE

CAMBRIDGE, Ca, Oct. 16.-The
Southwest Georgia fair closed Friday
after four days session. From every
standpoint the fair this year has been a
success. Competent judges declare it
TO be better than anything of its ma
ture ever attempted in south Georgia
1t is believed when the turnstile is
unlocked tonight that it will show over
$4,000 paid admissions during the four
days. The grounds have been jammed
at all hours of the day and until late
at night by interested spectators and
pleasure seekers.
The exhibits of farm produce on
display stand sponsor for the state
ment that Decatur county is able to
sopport herself, weevil or no weevil.
One prominent farmer has an exhibit
with over $50 different articles actual
ly grown on his farm just west of here.
These consist of everything imaginable
/ from King Cotton to tobacco, oranges,
and even bananas. Eight different va
rieties of hay are on display in his
exhibit.
The livestock shown at the fair
eclipses anything of it's kind ever
shown in southwest Georgia. The
management was forced to double the
capacity of its sheds and barns to
accommodate the stock entered. The
high class stock shown speak we'll for
the farmers of this county who are 60
ing into stock raising in preparation
; for the coming of the boil weevil.
The management of the fair is al
ready busy on plans for the 1916 fair.
They state that this fair will ge even
better than the 1915 fair, but those
who enjoyed the Southwest Georgia
fair this year doubt if such is posi-

ANOTHER WEEK OF
DEVELOPMENT IN DIXIE

BALTIMORE, Md, Oct. 16.-Review-
ing the business conditions of the
South for the week, the Manufacturers
Record reports broadening activities
in many directions, with more evidence
than for some years of a spirit of de-
termination to aggressively push. de-
velopment work of all kinds. Long
dormant commercial organizations are
being reviewed, while others that have
not been very active during the last
few years are putting forth new en-
ergy and life, with a view to awaken
ing their communities to tire opportun-
tiles of the hour This spirit seen in
individuals, in corporations and in
commercial organizations is one of the
most interesting phases of the entire
business situation in the South. Not
since 1907 has this spirit been as pro-
nounced as it is at present. 1t is indi-
Gative of the whole trend of Southern
thought and gives promise of large
achievements.
Among the industrial activities re-
ported for the week are several COM
panies organized in Missouri with 4
view to developing iron-ore properties
and building furnaces.
The active demand for fuorspar in
steel works has, it is claimed. taken
the full output of all fluorspar mining
companies in the country. A new com
pany, capitalized at 100000, has geen
organized in Kentucky, where this in
dustry is so largely developed with a
view to daily output of 500 tons.
While another company has been or
ganfzed in Mississippi likewise to op-
crate in Kentucky in flouorspar min
ing.
The Demado Lead & Zinc Co. has
been oragnized at Tulsa, Okla, with 2
capital stock of 100000 to deeylor
lead and zinc properties.
The Broad RIVER Mills, Blackshear
s. C, has increased its capital to doubl,
it's capacity by adding 1000 cotton
spindies.
The vioIa-Mae Cotton Mills will b,
organized at Gadsden, Ala, to build

POLITICAL GOSSIP
BRINGS CHANGES

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 16-Hugh Dor
sey for governor, and Samuel D
Hewlett for solicitor general of the
criminal branch of the Fulton Superior
court is the latest political gossip here
regarding the next crop of political
candidates.
For some time past it has been
whispered that Mr.. Hewlett, who is al
able and prominent member of the
Atlanta and state bar, would probably
be in the race for solicitor general and
yesterday the statement came direct
from Mr.. Hewlett's friends that he
had determined to make formal an
nouncement of his intention.
No definite announcement of his
gubernatorial intentions have come
from Solicitor General Hugh Dorsey,
but it is stated and on what appears
to be inside authority, that Mr.. Dorsey
has definitely made up his mind to run.

FIND ANOTHER MOUND
IN NAC00CHEE VALLEY


ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 16.-Following
the Smithsonian excavations into the
Indian mound in Nacoochee valley,
north of Atlanta, another and perhaps
even more interesting mound of the
same species has been discovered by
pure accident, on the land of Thomas
T. Taylor, a wealthy farmer living on
the north Fork of Holston river.
Workmen were excaavting for a
foundation when they came upon what
Seems to be an Indian graveyard, from
which they have already taken q
skeletons. The bones are in a fairly
good state of preservation. Many
teeth were found, some strung to-
gether as necklaces; also charcoal,
pottery, beads and other Indian relics.
The graves were in rows with the
heads to the east One skeleton was
in an upright position, and in this
grave were also found the bonds of Ii
deer, leading to the belief that the
skeleton was that of some great war
rior and noted hunter of his tribe.
In other graves were found bones,
presumably of foxes and dogs, and
several stone axes, such as were used
by the Indians. The graves were locat-
ed in beautiful level space of ground,
facing the river, and over them was
probably originally a mound, which
has since been worn away by clearing
and cultivation. It was probably a
burying place of the Algonquins or
Cherokees.
