To the Voters of Polk County: have, for some time, contemplated en tering the race for Sheriff of Polk county. I have withheld a public an uoiniremeut for a settlement of the question as to whether or not a white primary would he hold for the selection of county oll'icers, being unable to buy votes, and also opposed conscientiously to vote buying, even if I were able to buv them. That question being settled, since nearly all the people of the county who have expressed their wishes and opinions on the subject have pro nounced in favor of a white primary, d the Committee the people elected to manage it have called lor a white pri mary to beheld on August the 15th for the selection of county officers, I feel that there is an open field and a fair race for all, whether rich or poor, upon their merits and qualifications for office. I, therefore, announce myself a candidate for the office of Sheri If, subject to the white primary on the date aboye men tioned. If J am not the nominee of the white voters of the county for that of fice, I am for the man who is. If elected. I shall endeavor to show my apprecia tion of the confidence my fellow-ci<i- zens repose in me by making the best officer in my power. My Deputies wi" ‘ *0 announced later: J. O..Knight.

Prior, an old Ce- dartown boy, has added another in dustry to the list of our profitable enterprises. It is a new foundry and machine shop, located on the sites of the old Cedartown Lumber Co. and the Ce- dartown Foundry in Eastview. 'the tract of about three acres lies along the E. & W. road jnst opposite the Standard Cotton Mill, and the two buildings with yards cover quite space. The building for the machine shop is now under construction, being 30xG0 feet, and the foundry is 40x50 feet. The foundry will be ready for the workmen to begin on castings Monday, the engine and bciler being already placed and in running order. Mr. Prior is going to erect a small furnace so that he ean do any kit of ordinary work on short notice The trade has always demanded place where emergency work could be done on very quick notice, and Mr.Prior is going to be equipped for doing all kinds of castings for small fixtures in rush order. He will build also a brass furnace and will be ptepared to make east ings in this line of work. He has ordered a large shipment of sand from Cincinnati, ground as fine as flour, for iight and fine castings of every kind. His machinery is all to be new, a lot of which is already here, and the remainder will be here on the com pletion of the buildings. His plant ill be one of the finest and best equipped in the country for its size and will represent the investment of several thousand dollars. Mr.-Prior will employ at the be ginning ten hands, and us his bu-i ness increases the payroll and plant will enlarge accordingly. Several ytars ago, Mr. Prior began work on a small scale, liul by energy and application his business showed signs of substantial prosperity. He readied out for trade, and the large custom patronage he enjoyed has constantly increased. His old quar ters have been in the old foundry- building of the Alabama and Geor gia Iron Compa'ny, which now are occupied by that company. His increasing patronage necessi tated larger quarters, and Mr. Prior in casting about for a suitable loca tion, decided that the site of the old Cedartown Foundry could not be im proved upon. The purchase was accordingly made, the erection of the buildings inaugurated, and the work of removing the outfit to the new plant has been in progress ail week. Fully fifty wagon loads of machinery and material have been delivered on the grounds in East view. Mr. Will Prior was born and reared in Cedartown, and has a host of warm friends who have always rejoiced at his success. He is a good business inan, and has always main tained a high slandard of work at his establishment. He is clever, prompt and courteous in his business transactions, and is deservedly popu lar with all who know him. Being a homo man, with home money and a commendable energy, his numerous friends and the busi ness world generally, while congrat ulating him on his past success, prediet for him greater accomplish-, meats in the future with his new and expanding industry.
