One of the republic.au nominees

Election returns from over tho

Tho daily Critic, of Marietta,

It may be natural but it is
rather unwise for the friends
of any defeated candidate to
threaten ’wholesale vengeance on
a majority of the people of a
county—for that’s what it takes
to defeat a man for county office.
And there are mighty few folks
silly enough to talk that way.
The Crown Cotton Mills in Dal
ton have declared a cash di vidend
of ten per cent, and will* spend
$20,000 for new machinery and
improvements. All other cotton
mills in the South that'are well
managed are doing finely and
making big money, and will con
tinue to do so, no matter who is
elected president.
Ex-Attorney General Monnett,
of Ohio, who furnished a solitary
instance during his term of office
of a republican official actively
lighting trusts, and was punished
therefor by the corporations and
party bosses by a refusal of re-
nomination, has forsaken the re
publican trust organization, and
will vote and work for Bryan and
Stevenson on the anti-trust issue.
The report of Comptroller
General W. A. Wright shows a
net increase of taxable values in
Georgia during The past year of
$17,476,640. This is certainly a
wonderful and gratifying in
crease, and more than ever pro
claims Georgia the Empire State
of the South. Old Polk—one of
the smallest counties in area in
the state—contributed $666,078 to
this increase, which marks her as
one of Georgia’s banner counties.
The Atlanta Evening News
made its initial appearance last
week, and is a splendid example
of modern,up-to-date journalism.
With Howard, Garter and Cooper
at the helm, with a fine crops of
assistants, it is certain to lie all
that trained intelligence and
pushing enterprise can make it.
The Nows is patterned very much
in style after the great New
York Journal, with which Mr.
Howard was successfully con
nected for some time. The new
publication is gladly welcomed
to our exchange table, and we
wish it unbounded success.
KIND WORDS FOKt FOLK.
Fuller Stanley, of Dublin, Throw
Hnmiuets Our Way.
Editor H. M. Stanley, of the
bright and newsy Dublin Courier-
Dispatch, was a recent visitor in
Cedartown and Rockmart," and
was very favorably impressed
with this section. This genial
gentleman is editor of one of
Middle Georgia’s most influential
newspapers; hence,, the follow
ing from his pen will be highly
appreciated in this county
The people of this scotlon hear too
little about North Georgia. There are
many good towns arid pretty farms
there, but I don’t believe that they are
as productive as our Laurens county
plantations.
Rockmart is a pretty little town
aituated in a lovely valley surrounded
by mountain?. The mountains are
filled with Iron, slate and lime. Slate
mining', however, Is the principal. In
dustry. There are several large quar
rica there. Tile Methodist church and
the Central hotel In Dublin are both
covered with Rockmart elate. There
aro also several large lime kilns there,
but no Iron furnace.
At Rooki/art Is Piedmont institute,
a high sohool established by the oitl-
zens of the community and the North
Georgia Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South. This sohool
is well conducted. The Rockmart
Slate Is an excellent paper, and Editor
Fain is doing muoh for Hookmnrt
This town Is soon to have a bank.
Hoke Smith of Atlanta ia president,
nnd Buell Stark, who last June was
an applicant for tho prlnclpalshlp of
the Duljlin Public Schools, is to he
cashier. Rookinart has a full comple
ment of business nnd professional men.
Five miles from Rockmart are the
Aragon mills, a brnnoh of the Now
York cotton mills. Here are run daily
14,000 spindles and 480 looms. About
400 hands are employed during the day
and 40 at night. This mill represents
an investment of, perhaps, $800,000.
Around Rockmnrt are some beauti
ful farms. Particularly so is that of
Mr. J. N. Hardnge, which ia a mile
from Rockmart nnd extends to tho foot
of Signal mountain. Mr. Hardnge
values Ills farm at $25 per aore.
Cedartown, the capital of Polk
county, Is not ns large ns Dublin, but
is n hustling town. Here are located
the shops of the East & West road, a
large iron furnace, three cotton mills,
two knitting mills and other enter
prises, Inoludlng two of the best
papers in the Btnte—The Standard
nnd the Advanoe-Oourier. Tiie Stand
ard 1ms r plant about like that of the
Courier-Dispatch, and ia published in
two-story brick building owned by
the editors of the paper. The editors
are Messrs, Russell nnd Coleman. Ed
itor Coleman will be remembered by
the people of Dublin ns the president
of tile Georgiu Weekly Press Associa
tion. He and his partner are doing
much for Cedartown, which is on n
steady growth. In Cedartown lives
Will Harris, Steve Clny’s secretary
and one of the cleverest fellows that
lives. Mrs. Ella Roberts, formerly
Miss Ella Lowther of Dubli'n, is also n
resident of Cedartown. She nnd her
sister, Mrs. Unrdage of Rockmart, who
will be remembered ns Miss Mary Low
ther by the older inhabitants of Dub
lin, have each a family of boys and
girls that are much thought of in the
communities in which they live.
Mr. Wm. Knight, who has been
Clerk of the Superior Oourt of Polk
oounty for the past 27 years, is also a
native of Laurens, oounty. He is an
unole of Mr. Horace Knight of Wyily,
this oounty, and is very popular ns a
oitlzen and official.
I am going hack to the mountains
some of these days, but in the mean
time I am going to keep my eye on
Cedartown, also Rookinart.

It Happened In a Drug Store.
"One day last winter a lady came to
my drug store and asked for a brand of
ooo gh medioine that I did not have in
stook,” says Mr. O. R. Grandin, the
popular druggist of Ontario, N. Y.
“She was disappointed and wanted to
know what oongh preparation I conld
recommend. I said to her that I eould
freely reeommend Chamberlain’s Cough
Bomedy and that she conld take a bot
tle oi the remedy and after giving it a
fair trial if she did not find it worth the
money to bring baek the bottle and I
would refund the priee paid. In tho
course of a day or two tho lady oame
baok in company with a frieni in need
of a cough medioine and advised her to
buy a bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy, I consider thnt a very good
recommendation for the remedy.” It
is for sale by E. Bradford.
“You took your Bon into your es
tablishment some months ago to teach
him the business, I understand. How
did it turn ont?” Business Man (wea
rily)—“Great suceess. He’s teaching
me now."
For all fresh outs or wounds, in either
the human subjeot or in animals, as a
dressing, Ballard’s Snow Liniment is
excellent; while for sores on working
horses, especially if slow to heal,or sup
purating, its healing qualities are un-
equaled. Price, 25 ets. and 00 ots. T.
