APRIL 18 1907 IRON COMPANY OFFICIALS. The big ore developments by the Woodstock Iron & Steel Corporation at Cedartown, mentioned by the Standard last week, have attracted the attention of our people generally and show the prevailing activity in Iron properties. The work of installing the big ore washer at the old “Cherokee’ mine Is rapidly assuming tangible shape,and before many days there will be an army of laborers In every branu of the work. The officials of the Woodstock Cor-, poratlon have been here thiH week trom Anniston, and the ground his been gone over In detail. Indeed,their operations here will be on such a large scale that all of them—J. M. Barr, president, .1. 1L Carrington,gen eral manager, H. T. DeBardelebe.i manager of furnaces and mines, have given the matter their personal atten tion, and the magnitude of their work nere will often bring them to Cedar- Til IS UNUSUAL AVKA^IIFR. “The oldest inhabitant" has been put. to his trumps to recall an instance ever where the weather freaks in 1007 have been duplicated or approached. Tho month of March was equal to any “good old summer time,” the mercury ranging from HO to 91 de gree a large part of the month. Farm ers and gardeners everywhere did much advance work In planting their crops. The fruit crop was much ad vanced, tho peach yield being espe cially promising. In middle and south Georgia, cotton was up and growing, and truck gardening was thriving. Melons and cantaloupes gave evidence of an early yield. But | Easter Sunday came along March 31st with almost a blizzard.and for two weeks continuously the cold weather kept up,culminating Saturday and Sunday nights with frosts and Ice, the frost reaching as far south as Savannah. Early gardens were blight ed. and melons, corn and cotton killed outright. Beaches are killed every where in low places and badly damage everywhere. Some trees escaped on high ground above the frost line, but only a small crop Is now In sight. The grape vines are killed, and much tender shrubbery and trees, such as pecans, hickory ami early growths. Altogether tin 1 country is hard hit. and farmers in middle and south Geor gia are replanting cotton, corn and melon seed. The Ice King has reaped a harvest of destruction running up Into the millions, and the loss falls heaviest on him who can least stand, it—the hard-working farmer. FOR TIIK liru TOURNAMENT HFRE NEXT MONTH. It Im Up to Cedartown to Cure for Re cord- Breaking Crowd. The annual tournament of the North Georgia and Alabama Volunteer Firemen’s Association, to be held here May 15th and 16th,' will be the largest ever held In the history of that organization. And that means that Cedartown will have to take care of the largest crowd that has ever gathered here. With hotels and boarding-houses already filled, this means that Cedar- town will have to “do about” right smartly in order to do the proper thing by her visitors, Mr. R. H. Jones has kindly given the fii^men the use of the vacant rooms In the second story of the Peek building, and these will be fitted up for the occu pancy of the visiting fire-fighters. Besides the companies which will participate In the tournament, there will be representatives from the vol unteer fire companies all over the state, who are coming here for the purpose of organizing the State Vol unteer Firemen’s Association. Full up? fc Well, we should say so! But that only means that Cedartown must make an extra exertion, for she has a reputation to sustain for never doing anything by halves—and she Is not going to begin now! If any citizens of Cedartown can arrange to care for any of these visitors at their homes, either with or without pay, they will do a public service by giving l he Information at once to Chief M. D. Russell, Messrs. W. L. Knight, C. A. Collins or R. E. Griffin. This is Import ant,and we hope a good nunfber of pur public-spirited citizens will respond at once. Besides the firemen, there will he a number of sponsors and their at tendants and several city officials,and these must be especially w’ell en tertained. The contract has been let to Mr. H. J. Dempsey for building the grand and judges’ stands and the starting-house. The grand stand will extend from Griffin & Davis’ store to the office of W. J. Harris & Co., and the start- ing-house will he near the Seaboard crossing. The track is now’ being built, and the gravel for It Is generously donated by the Alabama & Georgia Iron Co. President Griggs, of this company,has also kindly given the firemen the use of their big stables to accommodate the horses of the visiting teams. It would be impossible to make a better arrangement for the care of the horses than this. Arrangements are being made to on tertain the visiting firemen at a big barbecue at some time during the tournament, and the Cotillion Club will probably give one of its elegant balk The Thaw jury could not agree and the country will have to hear tho whole nauseating case over again The jury stood 7 for con\lotion to 5 for acquittal, and this fact may help to throw a damper on the extreme readiness with which men have been resorting to the “unwritten law” of late. They have found a way of dealing with Incorrigible youngsters in At lanta, which we are inclined to think will prove somewhat effective. A father and mother who did not try to control their rock-throwing urchins were brought into court and heavily fined for maintaining a public nui sance. We take off our lmts to At lanta. Nothing possible will be left undone f >r the comfort and pleasure of our guest The firemen had a good time when they were here before — and t.i'j are coming again! NO POSTPONEMENT. There has been some talk of post ponement because of the fact that the State Elks’ Association meets in Rome on the same due. and a number of Rome firemen are also Elks. An ef fort-was accordingly made to change the date, but Gadsden and other com panies wanted it changed to an earlier instead of a later date if any change were made,and this could not possibly be arranged. Cedartown will have plenty to do to get ready by May l"»th. There will, therefore, be no change of date. And let everybody put his shoulder to the wheel to get everything in readiness for May 15th and 16th. Ce- dartown’s capacity for hospitality will be taxed as never before, and this fact must be thoroughly realized right now. It will be a great occasion.and Cedartown can. must and will respond nobly to it—as she always does!. Hon. O. B. Stevens Is the oldest j Railroad Commissioner in years but! the youngest in service on the pres- j ent board. Neither of these facts seems to militate against his activity, j for whenever a complaint arises a- j gainst a railroad, right then you will j find “Unle Obe" going in person to 1 investigate the trouble and try to I remedy it. Ladies, don’t for get to visit COBB’S new store Thursday April 25th. New things to please all. Mr. J. G. Eubanks, the State Busi ness Agent of the Farmers' Union, was shaking hands with his many Cedartown friends Monday. Mr. Eu banks is proving himself a highly ef ficient officer of this great and grow ing order, and his advice Is being constantly sought by the county or ganizations In the matter of building Union Warehouses. He has recently been honored by election as one of the five business agents for the national organization. We are glad to see this clever Polk county gentleman forging no rapidly to the front.

Cavalry, and Sergt.-Mrtf. Frank Mo- Carren, formerly of this place but now or Atlanta, spent Friday night In the> city to make the annual inspection of our military company. \ The official report will not be forth coming for some time, but Capt. W, H. Trawlck la confident that the com pany niffde a good military showing. This la greatly to he hoped, as a num ber of companies—among them the Rome company— have lately been mustered out of service because of lack of efficiency. Cedartown is proud of her military company, and we regard It as one of our most valuable organizations. It not only furnishes good training for ita members, but it. has great possi bilities of service for the town and county. THE COUNTY COURT. Judge F. A. Irwin, the able Judge of our City Court. Is determined to do Ills part in breaking up the iniquitous blind tiger traffic in this section. “1 will fine you $350," said he to a white man brought before him a second time on this charge, " and if you an* ever convicted again, 1 will impose a sentence you cannot pay out'of." Such sentences as this will do more than anything else to tireak up this illicit business, and Judge Ir win will have the approval of thp peo ple in Ills efforts to better our condi tion on tills line. Col. Paul R. Turner is making an excellent record as Solicitor for this court, and is ably assisted by Col. Wm. Janes. Judge Irwin adjourned court for the forenoon yesterday on account of the funeral of Sheriff Dempsey’s ven erable mother. Ladies, don’t for get to visit COBB’S new store Thursdav April 25th.
