A 8l!(i(iE8T10N TO (OW-OWNKKS. There will bo immense crowds in Cedartown next Wednesday and Thurs day, and we should make a special ef fort to have our town appear as well \s possible—even to the side streets. And right hero we wish to rise to re mark that the owners of cows can do a great deal to help in this work. It may be possible that it is too much to expect them to obey the law at all times in reference to tying their cows where they can trespass on the sid3- walks, though it ought not to laae any law to make them refrain from so doing as a matter of courtesy and decency. At any rate, they should be kept ofl' the sidewalks up to and dur ing the tournament,in order that they may be as clean and unobstructed as possible. It would be a go)d ideafo* both our stock-owners and police of ficers to read Sections 308 and 309, page 93, of the.City Code. The reg ulations are good ones and were evi dently intended to be enforced all the time. "I had to get down in a ditch and drive a cow out, so that a lady could get over the rope a cow had stretched across the sidewalk,” said a prominent citizen in speaking to a Standard man the other day in speak ing of a particularly persistent violat or of this law. As we said,this is a good regulation and should be enforced all the time, but if this is impossible—and we are beginning to think it is.—at least let us have it enforced up to and during the tournameut. , Mr. J. H. Dodds has purchased the Barron boarding house property in Eastview, through the agency of A. B. Phllpot and Co., and will build on the vacant lot adjacent. New York state has just adopted a new child labor law, prohibiting any minor under 16 years old from work ing in any factory more than ’eight hours a day, and that between S a.in. and 5 p. m. Rev. W. A. Cheatwood, County Or ganizer. will speak next Saturday at 10 a. m. at Union Grove church.south of town, in the interests of the Farm ers’ Union. The public is cordially invited to attend and hear him. The United States Supreme court has just decided that Railroad Com missioners have the power to force railroads that cross or connect with each other to so arrange their sched ules as to provide for connections for passengers to reach their destinations iu the quickest possible time. TEACHERS* INSTITUTE. A Good Session in Roekmart, and a Fine Program for June Mill. $ The pedagogues of Polk had an en joyable and profitable day Saturday at Roekmart.
