Evrror News -Hon. W. C,
Kendrick, your immediate'member
in the House of Representatives,
makes oue of the most dutiiul and
otherwise vigilant members of
either branch of the general as
sembly. He is quict, but is al
wrys watchful of the interest of the
people ot Terrell and Southwestern
Georgia. Such hasbeen his excellent
record in the house, I take pleass
ure n sugzesting him as the next
State Senator from your Senatos
rial district, ATLANTA,
September 12, 'B9.
FROM A COLORED MAN.
Mg. Eprror:—l see an article
in your paper stating that the col
ored allianee had resolved not to
pick cotton for less than sixty
cents a hundred. You were miss
informed. - Weknow that there i 3
no erganization in Georgia that
can regulate the price paid for ont.
tout pick’rg, for that has been tiied
and made a faiture of for a long
tinge. We are ot all cetton pick
cra=—some of us being cotton rais
ers=and we are working tor the
good of the country. Yours re
quiitfu]ly, Grorgr W. Lek.
‘i ABOUT OUR STREETS.
lém‘rok News:—l notice an ar
ticle in your valuable columns sug
gesting the idea of opening up more
stregts in your fast growing city,
and I, with many others, wou'd
say swen,
Not only should more streets be
ovened, but by sll means sowme
that you alieady have should be
extended. For instance, those
who are living north ot th 2 rail
road are often anuvoyed at the
street crossing inmmediately at the
depot. It is often Ulockaded,
morning and evening, by treizht
traing, which annoy pedestrians
and are great “seare crows’ to
many ieams, It would be right
and proper for the city officials to
take the matter in hand aud ex
tend Vine strcet due North until
it intersects the Dawson and
Brooksville road at or near the old
butcher pen. Stovewall street
should a'so be extended to the line
of Mr. Tom Miller's lot, then dne
west to Main street. This would
give three crossings into the city
instead of oue, and would be a
great accommodation and much
more convenient to many who en.
ter your town from this direction.
It could be dove at little expense.
Hoping that your city offiziils may
favorably consider the subject,l am
very truly yours, Visrtor

FROM HON, W, C. KENDRICK,
Epiror News :—Thinkiny that
gome of your readers who do not
ha e snccess to the daily papers:
would like to hear something from
me, I will write a short letter. ‘
I have just returned from a visit
to the Luntic Asylum, and find St{
tull ot lunaties, idiots, imbeciles,
Inebriates avd wuuld-he—suicides,l
There are about 2,000 people in
all fed at this place- -aver 1,800 pa
tients. Thls is Georgia’s grandest
charity, and cannot be properly
mavaged for less than $200,000 a
year. I think, ip the main, that
the management of this institution
is good, but there are some things
that are not as they should be, and
an effort will be made to correct,
as far as possible, existing evils,
As each days s-ssion ot the Gen
eral Assembly costs the state in
round numbers $1,300, the peo-‘
ple and the tax vayers are nature
ally usking when will the Legislas
ture adjourn. I wish I could tell
them aind vame an early day, but
uo human being oan even approxis
mate the time. Very much de
pends on the action of the senate up
on the bill to lease the Western and
Atlantic railroad. It i thought
that a majority ot the senate tavor
the sale of the road; if so they may
fail to pass the House bill, "or so
amend it that the house cannot ae.
cept it. In that eventa commit ce
of conference will be created from
both Houses, und no one can tell
tho result. .
There are alarge number of bills
in the House yet to be acted upoa.
A large majority of them ure locsl,
and some good ones of general in
terest A great many of thew will
} not be worth anything when pass
ed, and some important ones have
lfailed, asdid the Hart bill, which
| propcsed to compel the farm
i hands, as well as the farmers, to
| fill theic contracts, for want of
three more votes. I receivel 85
votes £nd 88 would have passed it.
Snellzon’s gnano inspection bill
j did not fail, as has heen asserted,on
account of the unpopularity of the
’ man, but from the fact that it
- would have taken seventy or cighty
thousand dollars from the eommon
school tund, «rd upon the opinion
that manufacturers pay the inspee.
tion fee and ot the farmer.
| This legislature has appropriated
-moie moaey than any that 1 have
-ever known, but in the main it has
been expended in the right Jirecs
| tion—that of common school edu«
' cation and for maimed contederate
l soldiers.
The Brady bill, as you kunow,
~was killed in the senate, and I pre
dict that the Sanford bill will be
killed in the House, and thus the
guano business will be left where
it has been.
There are quite a number of bills
for educational purpoeses—branch
colleges, trchnological schools, ap
propriations for the State Umiver
sity and other higher education
But Dr. Felton's hill, or any other
bill for higher education, will meet
with defeat. There is a general
disposition nct to vote money to
colleges until a good system of cowms
mon schools can be established
throughout the state
"There are more farmers in this
legislature thanany one ever be
fore assembled in Georgia, and
smalier number ot physicians than
I bave ever known. There has 1
aleo been more deaths than in any 1
previous General Aseembly, six
members havinz died or been killed

What ilt Means.
To the man or woman who has
neser been ill, the word “health”
is meavinglegs. But to the one
who hus suflered and despaired,
health appears as a priceless boon,
To the thausands of unfortunate
women wha are suflering from
some of the many forms of weak~
vesses o 0 irrecularities peeuliar to
their sex, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription holds forth the pro~
mise of a speedy restoration of this
“priceless boon.”

Chicago Addresses the Peopla of Beorgid,
Chicago is makiag a wremendousd
eflort to secure the great National
Exposition, to. be hell in 1892,
celebrating the 403 th anniverary
of tho discovery of Americ: by
Columbus. [tspeople are aroused
‘:nver the matter, and citizens from
| every state in the union who live
{in Chicago have formed committees
and are seml!n% .%g%' addreases to
thelr people. We pritt below thy
{ address of the Georgin commirtes,
| gigned,as Chairman, by Mr, 8. D,
| Pickett, an old Dawam hoy:
To the peop‘.e.bf Georgia: * The
Gaorgin con mittee, composed of
Georgians residing in Chieago, take
great pleasure in precliming tw
the people of the Empire S'ate ot
the South, a state in wnich’ the
members of this committee have an
undying interest and deep affection,
that it tully and unqualifiedly in
| dorses Chicago ns the most proper
place tor holdine the Worlds Ex
‘ pnsitinn of 1892, and in doing ao
it is with the Lhope that the people
|of Georgia will be iufluenced by
| the logieal reasons advanced in bew
| halt of the Garden City as the
most fittinz place tor the whole
universe to assemble to honor the
memory of the discoverer of Amers
ica,
In giving our views to Georgiaus
thig commitlee does =0 for no sels
fish or venal motives, but from a
| standpointiol honoring where hedor
is due.
Chicazo has every facility for
holdiaz the world's tair, and ig the
most central porat in the United
i States large enough to accomodate
the vast number of persons who
will attend this ¢ lebration.
Its hotel aceomodations are the
best iu this country aad its boards
ing houses are numerous anl well
appointed.
i Its restaurants are eountless,
| Its transportation faciities aro
i excell 't —eati e, caby, backs al?d
street rallways.
- Tts places of munidsemont are’ na
numerous and as atiractive as those.
of any city in the worid,
Its parks, boulevards and prom
enades are more numerous and the
finest on the Arierican continent.
Its publie building sare the wonder
and admivation of the educated
travefer.
Chieago. resting as it does on
the shores ot broad and beautitul
Lake Michigan, is attractions as a
summer resort ave supcriur to those
of any other city.
In concluszion, wa desire to say
that it is our opinisa that the in
tergsts of the South and Northwest
are more nearly dleatieal than
those of any other two sections,
and it is the sincere wish of ths
commitéce that the people of
Georgia (our cld” home) will use
their influence in behalt of + hicago,
to secure the worla’s exposition.
