REV. SAM JONES IN POLITICS.
HE WILL STUMP THE STATE.
Rev. Sam Jones is holding a gigantic meeting in Annis
ton, Ala., and in an interview with a reporter ofihe Atlanta
News, he states that he will take a hand in politics next
year. He is for white primaries and in about the same
breath he says “I go more on character than I do on color.”
lie seems to be terribly in earnest and his advent into ti e
political arena will be watched with interest by many and
an avoidance of his fiery shafts will be entirely in order by
others.
Anniston, Ala., April 15. Rev.
Sam P. Jones, the noted evangelist,
arrived in this city Saturday night
from Atlanta, and was seen soon
after arrival by the correspondent
of The Daily News. He talks hope
fully of the evangelistic movement
which began in Anniston Sunday.
The city is ready for him. The
first service of the revival was held
in the auditorium at 3 o’clock yes
terday, the second last.nig’nt. Mr.
Jones was accompanied here by
Mr.L. R. Gilreath, of Cartersville,
who has charge of the singing, and
Mrs. Annie Graham, of Carters
ville, who presides at the piano.
Three services will be held each
day for ten days.
Mr. Jones was asked for his
views on the anti-barroom crusade
in Georgia. He replied by saying
that it was much larger, stronger
and healthier than the newspapers,
politicians and the demagogues
of Georgia had any idea of.
Continuing, he said: “The good
people of Georgia have been slow
to learn that the courthouse rings
and political cliques could not be
trusted. The candidates they nom
inated could be bought or borrow
ed to defeat any legislation that
looks to the closing up of the sa
loons or an abridgement in any
way of the liquor traffic. —“The
present anti-saloon crusade will
bring on a war between the dirty
politicians and the decent element
of the state upon the other side.
The last Georgia legislature out-
Heroded Herod himself, and the
good people of Georgia do not
want the state disgraeed by an
other like it. —“The demagogues
and politicians may howl and
whine on the fearful catastrophe
of mixing church and state, but
some of us think that we had bet
ter mix a little church with things
and save the state from another
disgrace like the legislature’s trip
to Valdosta. We want sober
men, decent men and non-c.ussing
men in office, and we are going to
have ’em, or know the reason why.
“All we ask is that timid preach*
ers and politics bedabbled deacons
run their train, with its dirty car
go, on the side track and give us
the right of way.
“We propose to meet the boys
in the primaries and at the ballot
box. The elections next year in
Georgia will be a battle royal be
tween the good people and the
“gang.” and in the white prima
ries we’ll clean ’em up.
“If the negro had been eliminat
ed from politics in Georgia as long
as he has been out in South Caro
lina, the decent element would
have been in charge of the state
long ago. I would about as" soon
be a nigger as to be a whitp man
and depend on a nigger for my po
litical backer and my only ihance
for office. Igo more on charac
ter THAN I DO ON COLOR.
“There are 137 counties in Geor
gia. The decent element of the
state can count on me for 137
speeches during the camdaign,
Providence permitting, and there
is a whole lot of fellows who will
g° to speaking and spend money
along legitimate lines for the over
throw the liquor traffic in Georgia.
“I would not trust the average
candidate of the court house ring
as far as I can throw a cow pen
by the gate.
“The preachers of Georgia rea
lize, every one of them who have
enough sense to go to milL, or
ieligion enough to say grace at a
table, that they have got to re
move obstacles o_t of the way, or
give up all idea of progress, and
so soon as the politicians see that
the good people mean business
every dirty little devil of them will
either join our procession or take
to the woods. They will take to
temperance with the same avidity
that they took to free silver a few
years ago, and for the same reas
on th v saw people were over on
that side.
“Of course we have got some
decent office-holders in Georgia
who are an honor to the state, and
they know' they have been hope-
DR. W. H. PATTERSON.
History of His Life By His Home
Paper.
Eufaula (Ala) Times.
After suffering two weeks with
pneumonia. Rev W. H. Patterson
died last night, eleven o’clock, at
his home on the hill, surrounded
by his loved ones who have watch
ed so anxiously and ministered
so lovingly to his wants. All that
medical skill could devise was
done to relieve his suffering and
restore him, but his labors had
been so worthy the Master’s hire
and he had so “kept faith” that
the crown was ready and waiting,
and the messenger from the man
sions above came and whispered
“Well done, enter thou.” Abun
dant and rich is the reward he re
ceives “up there.”
Dr Patterson was born in Dooley
County, Georgia, Oct. 9th 1836,
but was reared in Hancock county,
and was a resident of Eufaula
more than thirty-five years. Was
president of Union Female college
many years, and many women in
this city today are saddened that
the kind gentle counsellor, teacher
and friend of their girlhood days
is no more, the writwr .one of this
number.
He was true in all the word im
plies, and faithful to everything.
An intellect that scholarly investi
gation of all subjects broadened,
and brought out in their higher
sense, made him a man whose life
benefitted his fellow creatures, in
ways,which, although not always
seen, really counts most. For
thirty years he has been an earnest
consecrated minister of the gos
pel.
Was pastor at Midway, Ala.. 11
years, Dawson, Ga., 5 Cartersville,
Ga., 4 years, Blakely, Ga., and
neighboring churches, being pas
tor of the latter named church at
the time of his death. He was
called home from his labors there
to attend the funeral of his little
grandson, little more than two
weeks ago, was suffering with a
cold then and very soon was pros
trated. From the first he has
been dangerously ill and no more
anxiety and solitude over the con
dition of a citizen has ever been
manifested in any community, and
while his death was expected, the
news this morning that the end
had come has cast a gloom over
our city, where he was so highly
esteemed and so much loved.
He leaves a devoted wife and
two sons, Messrs. F. M. Patterson
of this city and W. R. Patterson,
of Greensboro, N. C., and deep
and sinceae is the sympathy which
goes out to them in their affliction.
The funeral takes place this after
noon at three o’clock from the
First Baptist church of which he
was so long a member and from
which pulpit his voice has often
been heard, telling the way of “the
true life.'’ The pall bearers will
be Messrs. E. B. Young, S. H.
Dent, C. C. Skillman, G. L.
Comer, J. D. Godwin, O. T.
Moore and C. A. Locke.
TOT CAUSES NIGHT ALARM
"One night my brother’s baby
was taken with Croup,” writes
Mrs. J. C. Snider, of Crittenden,
Ky,.’’it seemed it would strangle

we gave it Dr. King,s New Dis

A SUSPICIOUS PEOPLE.
Recent Arrivals at Linwood Cause
Some Alarm.
The people in the neighborhood
of Linwood, a few miles south of
Adairsville, are just no v somewhat
exercised over the arrival among
them of an old gentleman and two
children from Mississippi; where
the wife and one or two children
had died of smallpox. The peo
ple claim that they have had the
disease, fully recovered and have
certificates to that effect.
They came from a locality where
smallpox raged and many died.
It has been said that that section
furnished the only genuine small
pox of the country, the other dis
ease being called Cuban itch,
which has prevailed in different
sections of the entire country,
principally in the east.
What makes the people of Lin
wood more fearful is that the
new citizens are looking for their
household effects, and it is feared
that the germs of the disease will
be transported to their locality.
Inasmuch as the people are said
to have been from a point where
the disease developed to its most
malignant type, it would be wise
that the matter be given an inves
tigation by the proper authorities.

Whisky Selling.
Jim (Jordon, colored, who wea: s
the name of “Jack de Rabbit,” is
now boarding at the county jail,
all for dispensing the ardent

Chief Satterfield had for some
time suspicioned the striped pe
dal merchant of conducting a
closed whisky game and set about
watching him. Saturday after
noon several parties were seen to
enter the lair of the animal, and
from them enough evidence was
secured to warrant his arrest.
He was carried before ’Squire G.
W. Waldrup and put under a SIOO
bond, which he has failed to make
so far. He languishes in jail to
awuh the ac.ion of the higher
court.
BARN BURNED.

wind and lodged in the barn. It
was a splendid barn, nearly new,
and had two bales of cotton, a car
load of cotton seed meal and hulls
in it which were entirely consum
ed. So far as learned there was
no insurance. Mr. Hitchcock's
friends sympathize wish him in his
bad luck.

TWO SAD DEATHS.
Sudden Death of a Former Bartow
County Man and Girl.
News reached the city last Wed
nesday of the sudden and unex
pected death of Mr. Frank Steph
ens, a young man born and rear
ed at Stdesboro, in this county,
that occasioned sorrow among
those who knew him well. Mr.
Stephens was the youngest
brother of Mrs. J. P. Anderson
and Mrs. W. H. Milner, and a son
of the late Dr. S. F. Stephens,
of Stilesboro.
Mr. Stephens since his depart
ure from Cartersville several years
ago has been engaged in the cotton
mill machinery business, starting
in one of the large mills of North
Carolina. He was an apt student
in those lines and promotions
came fasc as a natural result of his
incessant devotion to his work
and thoroughness in which he a :
quired the details of his business.
From an insignificant position he
rose to a superintendent’s place,
from there going on the road for
a large concern in handling ma
chinery and was making still
greater success. At the time of
his sickness and death he was “on
the road,” at Elizabeth City, Va.,
traveling out of Charlotte, N. C.,
where he resided.
The attack was sudden, and in
the short space of three days, be
fore his wife could reach him
pneumonia had accompli died its
fatal work.
Mr. Stephens was 36 years of
age, married, his wife surviving
him.
Cut down in his young man
hood, with a short life so full of
accomplishments and a future that
seemed to promise everything, his
deatli is an extremely s:d one,
and his bereaved relatives have
the sympathy of a large circle of
friends.
LITTLE RUTH DWELL?'.
Hardly had Mesdames Ande.-
son and Milner received the intel
hgence of their brother Frank’s
death, chronicled above, before
they were shocked to learn of the
death of a little neice, little Ruth
Dwelle, who left Cartersville a
year ago, and who is well known
to our people. The Charlotte N.
C., Observer tells the sad story
thus:
“Ruth, the To-year-old sister of
Messrs. Edward, Clint and Harold
Dwelle, died today at 1:30 at the
Private Hospital of appendicitis.
She was taken sick Sunday but
her symptoms were not alarming
until yesterday afternoon. She
was so violently ill that the phy
sicians saw that ai operation was
the only chance of saving her life.
She was taken to the hospital at 1
o’clock this morning, and the
operation performed. The disease
had progressed too far, and death
ensued today.
“Deceased came here with her
brothers. Messrs. Edward, Clint
and Harold and sisters, Misses
Marv and Laura Dwelle, from
Cartersville, a year ago. Their
home was on South Brevard street.
Ruth was the youngest and was
an unusually bright, attractive
girl. Mr. and Mrs. Dwelle died
some years ago, leaving the three
daughters. Ruth had been the idol
of the home, and the grief which
her death has caused is deep. The
family attended the Second Pres
byterian church. The remains will
betaken to Savannah tom arrow
night.”
