COME OUT TONIGHT
And Help to Make Arrangements For
Speaker Crisp.
HE WILL ARRIVE ON NEXT FRIDAY.
The Citizens of Rome Should See That He
is Given a Royal Welcome
in This City.
Speaker Crisp, Mr. Maddox, Mr. Clay
and Mr. Berner will speak inßome next
Saturday.
Mr. Crisp will arrive in Rome Fri
day, and it is the desire'of his many ad
mirers that he be given a royal recep
tion. As the speaker of the house of re
presentatives, he stands as the most dis
tinguished southerner of the union, and
next to Mr. Cleveland he stands as the
lead in national figure. He has count
less admirers here,and they want to give
him an idea of their feelings by a warm
welcome to the city.
Hence it is that a meeting has been
called for tonight.
It is urged that all who feel an inter
est in the matter will meet at the city
hall tonight at 7:30 o’clock. Here ar
rangements will be made for the enter
tainment of Mr. Crisp. Other cities
and towns have treated him well, but
Rome should surpass them.
Remember the time and place, 7:30,
at the city hall—and don’t fail to be
present.
The earlier symptoms of dyspepia
heartburn and occasional headache
hould not be neglected. Take Hood’s
.Sarsaparilla to be cured.
THE CAMPAIGN CLOSING.
'lhe Speakers For the Last Week Announced
At Headquarters.
The campaign is drawing to a close.
The election occurs one week from next
Wednesday, which leaves hardly more
than a week for the campaign com
mittee to do its work, and for the speak
ers to address the voters on the issues of
the day,and pour hot shot into the ranks
of the populists.
One notable feature is marking the
close of the campaign—the perfect harj
mony in democratic ranks,and the unam
ity with which the speakers are talking
for a sound currency.
The following is the progam for the
speaking in Georgia this week as ar
ranged by the democratic executive com
mittee:
Monday, September 24, Secretary
Hoke Smith at Macon.
Tuesday, 25, Hon. R. L. Berner at
Jackson,Butts county; Hon. L. F. Liv
ingston at Monroe Walton county; Mr.
Ben Conyers at Carnesville, Franklin

RAMBLING REMARKS.
There are few vacant store houses on
Broad street now. Several valuable
additions have been made to Rome’s
mercantile business, which is one of the
sure signs of better times. Mr. A. Mos
es, of Columbus, Ga., has recently
opened a retail dry goods house in the
old Bradford store. Mr. Moses is a
shrewd business man, and is a valuable
addition to the business circles of Rome.
Mr. Baer, of New York, has rented
the old McArver stand, nd will open a
line of general dry goods and notions
on October first. This shows the confi
dence in the future of Rome. Now
watch us grow!
I
When Floyd county floats her bonds,
then you will see better times sure
enough. Mr.' Win. A. Wright said to
me the other day that this would solve
the solution of the financial problem
here. "Why,” said he, “we can have
them of any denomination we choose,
and every farmer in the country can
get them, we will not get into the same
trouble Mississippi did. either. We can
print our bonds any color we choose,
except green, and we will be on the safe
side.” I heard an old farmer say that
he wanted his printed blue and that he
didn’t want them to be any higher than
twenty dollars. As is known, there has
bee n an election ordered to float $40,000
worth of bonds and you should do all
in your power to see that it goes through
if you are interested in the future of
Floyd county.
There were about 5, 000 people over at
Cartersvqle to hear Sam Jones last Sun
day. Over 200 went from Rome. Sam
will always draw a crowd , as people
never tire of his .inimical preaching.
He preached a regular scorcher Sunday
morning. It was what he called , “a
political sermon.” He certainly
shelled.the woods, and scored politicians
of all parties. He has the views of Hon.
Seaborn Wright, politically. He said
that£he would work against his brother,
if he was corrupt,even if he were a dem
ocrat. *‘ If anybody were to come to me
on election day and ask me how I was
going to vote and want to vote me, I
would spit right betewen his eyes, and
you know it, too, you old dirty hounds.
I never saw such a greed for office in
all my born days. Why, whenever
there is a new party started up, all the
disgruntled office-seekers of the old par
ties rush right into it because they think
they can get an office. A gang of women
will get together and organize a society
of some kind, the whole business will
want to be officers. When the demo
crats got into power this last time, they
hadn’t been where they could get to
the spoils in such a long time they all
flocked to Washington to get hold of a
teat of the old democratic cow. It would
have been the same way if the republi
cans or the populists had been in power. ’ ’
Rev. George Stewart, of Nashville,
preached in the afternoon on home
rule. He advocated prayer and hickory
with great fervor. He is one of the ab
lest preachers I ever heard. He showed
how a child could be spoiled by neglect
of the hickory, and illustrated the con
trol which should be had over children,
by telling oi Abraham preparing to offer
Isaac on the alter,and how Isaac implic
itly obeyed every command of his father
without asking why. It was the best
sermon I have listened to in a great
while.

has always found the very best results
follow its use; that he would not be

WHERE YOU VOTE.
County Attorney Meyerhardt Settled a
Question Asked.
In the past year when militia district
lines have been changed so much, many
have been transferred from their old
dilstrict to a new. In the minds of
some of them seem to be confusion as to
where they shall cast their vote at this
election in their old or new district.
■ Several have asked Judge Meyerhardt
and he has answered, in the new.
Whatever district you are now a part of
is the place to cast your ballot.
And it might be added the head of The
Tribune’s editorial page shows you how
to cast it. I
IRON INDUSTRIES.
Another Furnace Goes Into Blast in
Birmingham.
It is surely a fact that the new indus
try, like [all other in this section, is
looking up. Rome’s industries in this
line are a prospering, and from the Bir
mingham Age-Herald, of Sunday,shows
how they are progressing:
“Furnace No. 2, at North Birming
ham, the property of the Sloss Iron &
Steel company, is to go into blast tomor
row. The furnace has been thoroughly
repaired, and its output will be greatly
increased when it has been started up.
The stacks have been relined,the boilers
repaired, and other improvements have
been made.
"Furnace No. 1 at at that place has
been in blast for sometime now, and
the output of the two will be large.
"Active preparations will be begun
soon to put in the second furnace of the
First avenue plant of the Sloss com
pany. Considerable work is being done
on it, and as scon as it is completed it
is thought it will be put in blast.
1 The Tennessee Coal & Railway com
pany, as has been stated,will put in two
of within the next eight
days, one Bessemer, and the other in
the southwestern part of the city. 2
IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN 34.
An Alarm Last Nigh Which Puzzled the
Firemen.
' There was an alarm turned in from
box 84 c n First avenue' last night at
10:30. The alarm registered,32, however,
and the fire department reeponded
promptly to that box.
The alarm hung at box 34, and caused
it to register 32.
The firemen were completely mysti
' fled when they reached box 32, on Sec
ond avenue and found no one there and
no key in the box.
Several theories were advanced io
regard to the ringing, and all confessed
that there was air of the mysterious
about it.
An old negro who lived near Second
aveaiue , said he saw two men at box 32
while it was ringing, ‘and saw them run
away after the alarm went in . The
firemen were completely puzzled. They
knew that if the alarm hadjbeen turned
in with a key, it should ring four times.
There was only one way to make it ring
but once and that was with » relief key.
There are* only two of these h® the de
partment.
There was a fire in a negro shanty on
First avenue,where the alarm was turn
ed in, but was put out withouixt the aid
of the fire department before any serious
damage was done.
