Emigrant talk and Southern trade hopes amid turmoil
A compact regional essay weighs emigration to the West against Southern prospects, praising Georgia and nearby states while criticizing Northern attitudes toward Black voters. It highlights Georgia farmers thriving on corn and hogs, contrasts with higher costs, and notes a Londoners’ argument for direct trade and the Atlanta movement. It also references Agnes Ravkin of Fulton Kentucky and a medical endorsement for Hall's Catarrh Cure.
