Murphy and Conyers, of Cartersville,
also represented Mr. Tomlinson.
The jury speedily took the same posi

friends— that be was innocent of the
charge. The people of Polk congrat

This mill is especially important to all
our people in that home .people and
home money are interested in the en
terprise. It is inside the. city limit,and
pays city as welt as county taxes, hay
ing never asked for any bonus or con
cessions. Every citizen should, be its
friend and stanneh supporter. The
farmers of Polk county especially
should see that the mill is a snccess.
This mill will pay the market price
for cottonseed, and certainly onr farm
ers and ginners should give the Cedar-
tiwn mill all tlieir seed.
The cotton oil trust is already trying
to embarrass the new enterprise by
jockeying with those who have seed to
sell. If the Cedartown. mill should be
driven out of business, the trust would
then pay just what it pleased for cotton
seed and onr farmers could then whistle
for a convenient market for this farm
prodnct.
The Cednrtown mill is certainly a
well-equipped plant, and is going to do
a splendid business. All that it nerf
to insure its snccess beyond a doubt, is
the hearty support of all our people,
farmers, ginners, business men, and
laborers generally.

in the other counties of the circuit has
been very bard on the Judge’s physical

with the fact that several of our local
attorneys were interested in the Tom

caused the adjournment.
A great deal of work has been dis

In ffifent of President McKinley’s re-
Wood, Joe Langford, Holmes eleotion—for which Mr. Adamson con
!36ntlyTiopes—he has some plans_Jor
Gedartown’s development which he
proposes to push to completion—among
them the large addition on the north
side of Mill No. 1, of which The Stand
ard has spoken heretofore. Mr. Adam
son fears that a ohange of administra
tion would produce at least a temporary
cessation of industrial development—a
period of waiting to Bee what would
turn up,—and so conditions his plans
on Mr. McKinley’s re-election.
Mr. Adamson has the plans well In
hand for the big export mill, of which
nave -also spoken before, but which
he says is also conditioned on the out
come of the election. He also has plans
for other important industries well un
der way, which will mean much to Ce
dartown.
From the Spinners’ meeting in At
lanta yesterday Mr. Adamson has gone
to Philadelphia, bnt expects to be home
(.gain shortly. He says that Cedartown
i^by far the best known in the North
of any Southern town, and that the
advertisement — “Keep yonr eyes on
Cedartown” — which the Cedartown
Company has kept standing -in several
prominent papers, has helped to direct
inquiry in this direction. Cedartown is
“all right,” and for th ; s happy condi
tion is largely indebted to Mr. Adam-

SUMMER’S
TERROR—
It isn’t the discomfort from
heat. It is the danger to your
children from bowel disorders
induced by eating unripe fruit
or drinking iced water. For
that matter, children are not
the only ones who suffer.
To check summer complaint
and diarrhoea use Curry’s
Diarrhoea and Dysentery Spe
cific. It is agreeably spiced
and prompt in effect. It s
strong enough for grown folks,
but not so ugly that you have
to bribe a child to take it
