CEDARTOWN STANDA VOLUME 14. OBDARTOWK, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MOKNttG, JANUARY 15, 1901. WINTER CAT In All Sts Phases and Stages Peruna. I THE PROGRESSIVE SOUTH Tank, Hit pill I MRS. J. E. MILLS, OF NORWICH, CONN. Mrs. J. E. Mills,404 Main street., Norwich,Conn.,in a recent lettor Bays: '*/ write to let you know what Peruna has done for me. I have been troubled with catarrh since I was ten yean old. At times my head troubled me so that I would be obliged to stay In a dark room. Nothing helped me and my physi cian said I could never be cured. “/ began taking Peruna this spring and find myself greatly benefited by It. I have not had an attack since I took my tint bottle. 1 tblnk In time It will euro me. Peruna has Improved my appetite and health In general. I have gained twenty pounds In three months. I have recommended It to several of my friends, who also find it very beneficial, I advise any one troubled with catarrh to use Peruna. [’ ThouBands of man and women all over the United States use Peruna. They do so because they have learned by experience ttliu It Is a valuablo med icine. Not only Is it a valuablo medicine but it is applicable to tho climatic ailments or and summer. Extremes of heat and cold in tho United States make a land of catarrh. » Nearly everybody lias catarrh. This is more especially true among the mid dle and lower classes. Exposure to the climate, hard work, and unventilatcd sleeping rooms aro tho principal causes. Charitable institutions havo found, by bitter experience, that catarrhal dis eases aro not only tho most numerous of all other diseases put togothcr, but they aro tho hardest to cure. la Is a spoclflc for this class of diseases. No other romody can talco its place. Thousands of cases of chronic catarrh aro cured by tho uso of simply a bottle. Pooplo who have spent large sums to bo cured of catarrh,havo turned to Peruna as a last resort, and boon cured by the use of a single bottle. Jl is a sure euro for coughs, colds, la grfSme and catarrh in its many phases. Wli^ier the catarrh is located in tho head, throat, lungs, stomach,kidneys or pelvic organs, Peruna is a prompt and never-failing cure. Mrs. Sarah Jones, Ploasant. Plain, la., writes: “I wish to acknowledge my ap preciation of the benefits received from Peruna and Manalin In tho treatment of what was pronounced systemic catarrh. 1 took Peruna for a whilo and discon tinued tho uso of it as 1 felt so much better. Tho latter part of tho winter and early spring there was so much sickness here, an opldornic of colds and pneumonia prevailed. I had an attack of cold in catarrhal form,suffering with faciul neuralgia and headache, but con tinued taking Peruna and Manalin and was soon restored without being pros trated with weakness.” A book written by Dr. Hartman on the different phases of catarrh and their treatment, also “Health and Beauty," written especially for women, sent freo to any address by Tho Peruna Medicine Company, Columbus, Ohio. Okdahtown, Ga , Nov. 28, 1000. Eds. Tin hunk : As this is an era of pence ami good will among us as a na tion ami should be a time of special re- jolcing'in tho north on account of the sweeping victory of the republican party, thanks to Bryan and the 10 to 1 hobby, it would seem that our north ern friends would have a good word to say about the south, especially when she has done nothing deserving of ecu-, sure, as in the present instance. In your editorial of November 22nd, under the heading “Some Census Re ductions,” after noting with some sur prise that the west has not grown more rapidly than the east, you turn to the south and say: “It is true that the south has not advanced as rapidly as the rest of the country,” and give ns the reason “that it is because the south is not yet ready to extend a friendly hand to the stranger who comes seek ing his fortune. As yet the south is Baking Powder Absolutely Pure Makes light, flaky, delicious hot biscuits, rolls, muffins and crusts. Makes hot bread wholesome.

She must get over that if she would share the prosperity and 1 lie growth of the balance of the eoun- iry.” Now, if you will carefully study the (eiisus report, you will see that the in- ii population of the United Mates, during the ten years, including nil the territories and other posses sions, is 18,225,454, nearly 21 per cent.; that the number of immigrants in cluded in this increase is about 4,000,- 000, and ns most of these have settled ortli, the actual normal native increase would be 9,225,401,«a little over 11 per cent. Of this 4,000,000 for- gn population a very small percent ile has found its way south; hence whatever increase has been made in till* south during the decade has been natural and regular. The population oil the southern stutys, not including ssouri, has increased 8,918,858, over per cent., as ugninst'a total native reuse for the United States of 0,225,- 1, orjll per cent. The south has now, *rdiug to the late census, 23,460,- , as against 62,888,297for the rest of • country, or leaving out the immi- >. ation, 48,888,297, which is by far the ist showing made. [Let us get near home in this matter nsus comparisons. Let us compare >er cent, of increase of my adopted •, Georgia, with that of my native imnsylvania. Between these es my Jife has been nearly iivided. I love the dear old • State with her vast wealth [ iron, railroads, manufactories, and rich farming lands; but my Tty years in Georgia have endeared to her also, and today I am proud know that Georgia is keeping in , with the onward march, showing per cent, increase in her popula- i as against Pennsylvania, with all her advantages, including her foreign horn element, only makes a showing of 19.8 per cent. The sixteen southern states including Missouri have made equal gain with the sixteen northern states including Minnesota. Ilence you see that the south is mov ing in touch with the rest of the coun try. The progress we have made in the past gives promise of a great future. Our southland has many ad vantages natural to .her growth and -tands ready to extend a cordial wel come to any who may seek our sunny dime With a view to becoming citizens and share in our development. We offer you the best that we have. What more can we do ? There may have been a condition in the history of the, south when your re flections and criticisms may have been well timed. But in this day and time they come with an ill grace, ns there is not the slightest provocation. Before the war the south was mainly an agri cultural country, content to be a pro ducer, ami while she continues to cul tivate the soil with “king cotton,” the leading product, the money value of this year’s cotton crop exceeds $500,- 000,000. But she is not satisfied with the mere production of wealth. She her opportunity. She realizes her grefit advantages, ami ere long will occupy the foremost plane in the inan- facture of her raw material. Our southern mills are even now “com peting with our northern brethren.” Southern mills consumed last year 1,500,000 bales of cotton. This year DR. T. F. nrRBANK, ■ Alderman from the4th, Elected < W. and L. Commission. her mills will take 250,000 bales more, and yet we are only in our infancy in cotton manufacturing. To illustrate, take my own«county, Polk. Four years ago there was not a cotton mill in ope ration in the county; today we have six. One in the eastern end of the county, owned and operated by New York capital; the other five are located in Cedartown and owned principally by Philadelphians with an investment of nearly $1,000,000. The manufactured product of cotton alone in the south will add over $150,000,000. Add to this the value of oil extracted from the cot ton seed and we have a showing ns follows: Value of cotton and seed $500,000,000 Value of cotton iimnu- tured in South 150,000,000 Value of cotton seed oil . 100,000,000 Total $750,000,000 This is only one of the many stones forming the foundation for the south’s business structure. "Other agricul tural products, corn, oats, sugar, rice, tobacco and wheat, will figure up at least $500,000,000, so that out of the soil and the manufacture of cotton and seed the south will get $1,250,000,000. The production of pig iron in the south during the next twelve months will be from 2,500,000 to 8,000,000 tons and the output of coal nearly 50,000,000 tons. The total value of these products will be at least $1,500,000,(MX), outside of cotton and cotton oil manufactures, of a total of agricultural, manufactured and mining output of at least $2,750,- 000.000.” From the editor of the Man ufacturers’ Record. I quote further from the editor of the Manufacturer’s Record: “This is the magnificent prospect which the south has before it, and as the presi dential election insures that there will be no radical changes in our legisla tion affecting business interests, the people of the south can plan for the broadest possible expansion of their industrial affairs. The south has a •vital interest in this broadening of our country’s business life, for, having greater natural advantages than any other section, it will he cur own fault if we do not expand with the expan sion of the whole country in becoming the dominant financial and manufac turing power of the world.” ■ To this end we are using every means in .our power to induce immigration witli cnpital to conic and help us de velop our great resources. And from the rapid increase in population of many of our cities and towns, we have no fear from this source. Cedartown takes the lead in north Georgia, hav ing increased her population 71 per cent in the last decade. This may be accounted for from the fact that tin* town is the cnpital of one of the rich est counties in the state and “has the foundation for one of the most success ful manufacturing centres in the south.” Some think it is because the county always goes republican : it gave McKinley over 500 majority. Keep your eyes oil Cedartown and Polk county, Georgia, and the South.
