WANT WATER WORKS.
Our charming little sister city,
Calhoun, is thinking of issuing
bonds to build an adequate system
of water works, and they should
do so at once. Dalton had a fight
to get hers, but now there is not
a soul but is delighted over its
possession. The Dalton system
has paid a revenue every year since
its completion, and added materi
ally to its extension each year.
The W. & A. R. R. takes enough
water to pay for the running ex
penses, and nowhere is there a
system that has as low water rates
as ours. But the greatest value
of all is the protection afforded
for fire purposes. So perfect is
our system of water and fire de
partments that Cedartown and
Cleveland have sent delegations
here to examine our plants and
methods, and will adopt the same.
A system like ours lessens insur
ance rates very materially. There
can be no calculation made of the
property our fire department has
saved by having such a splendid
system. One fire alone, if we had
been without water, would have
destroyed property three times the
value of our system, and have beg
gared the property owners. Cal
houn should have water works by
all means. -

Uncle Sam could not afford to

Dr. Bell’s Pine Tar Honey acts

mucus, allaying the inflammation,
healing and strengthening. It is
sure to do you good—cannot do

Hon. G. R. Hutchens, of Talla

it is impossible to be happy or

at this hour when Senator Clay is
getting such fulsome flattery from
this same feed-trough delegate.
A distinction without a differ
ence amounts to nothing. There
is a difference—a real difference—
a vast difference between Dr.
Bell’s Pine Tar Honey and any
other cough, cold or lung remedy.
To see it or taste it proves this
immediately, but the greatest dif
ference is to be found in the re
sults coming from its use. Be

can arise.
The Citizen is in receipt of
the Detroit Free Press’ Annual

it is one of the best we ever saw.
It sells for twenty-five cents, and

A bottle of Dr. Bell’s Pine Tar
Honey should be on the medicine
shelf of every home. In a sudden
attack of croup it is invaluable,
allaying the irritation and ending
the danger in less time than it
would take to go for a doctor. It
stands pre-eminent as a remedy for
coughs, colds and all kindred dis
eases.
The Citizen is indebted to
Congressman Maddox for some
fine garden seed.
The Citizen congratulates
Rome upon having so fine a mayor
as Hon. John J. Seay.
Judge Atkinson writes The
Citizen he will visit Dalton soon.
He will find a welcome here.

Charlie Daniels, one of the

Nay, nay ! Telemachus, my son.
Col. Candler uses no Spencer-ian

Congressman Maddox defends
the good name of the South when
ever a dirty-mouthed Northerner
undertakes to defame it in the
halls of Congress.
Phill Cook, who is popular in
every way, and who has friends
by the dozens, is making a rattling

Benjaman Franklin used the

If Gov. Atkinson “ ravished
the State,” why did the papers,
who charge this, take State .[print
ing from his administration ? Why
did they plead with Senator Clay
to get this printing for them ?
Why did they accept junketing
jobs at Atkinson’s hands? Were
they not particeps criminis ?
Judge Atkinson hus a public
record which stands to his credit.!
He was an excellent circuit judge,
his service on the supreme bench
commended him to the confidence
of the people, and he is now an
honored member of the railroad
commission. Personally, he is
very popular, and his- friends have
exhibited great enthusiasm in their
support of him for governor ever
since he announced for governor.
