FOR SHERIFF.
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.

. ’ - —• ..—
Mr. William W. 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.
Jars of some kinds are not desir
able, but the kind Ihaveure worth
gold, yea, much fine gold.
But it requires only a very sinall
piece of gold to get a big pile of my
jars.
I’ve got stacks and piles of them,
and my family being small don’t
need them all.
If this don’t jar you too hard, drop
in and hear some ot ray jargon on
