Tlie Cartersville News.
This paper goes out to its read
ers this week with its name some
what changed. Itis The Carters
ville News and Courant-Ameri
can. Under this name it will hence
forth be known toils readers.
The name of The Cartersville
News was adopted as a matter of
convenience. It was desirable for
the paper to carry the name of the
city in which it is published, and
in that event the former name be
came too long. The Courant was
a time-honored name and one
which has been long associated
with Cartersville journalism, but
its French meaning was largely
lost to the general public. To
render Courant into Courier, the
form in which it would be best
understood, again made the name
too long. The News is a simple
and comprehensive name. It is
easily spoken, easily written and
readily understood.
, In making this change in the
paper’s name the Cartersville
Printing Company retains the full
right and title to any and all of
the former names which have en
tered into the various consolida
tions and combinations that have
come into this paper from time to
time.

Atlanta’s white city primary was
decent and orderly, but the con
test'was sizzling hot.

What else have thev “took up?”
Cartersville furnishes more sleep
ing-car business than any other
town north of Atlanta in Georgia.
This town believes in having the
best going.
If your neighbor does not take
and read The Cartersville
News, tell him about it, and lend
him your paper. He will enjoy it
and ever feel thankful to you.
People who go into a race, and
claim the office by right of pur
chase or previous ownership, don’t
always find the votes coming along
in carload lots. Witness somebody
in Atlanta.
Here i/the advice the Summer
ville News gives its readers: “Don’t
sell your cotton for less than io
cents. Hold it until the price goes
back to that figure. The crop is
short and the price will certainly
not remain below io cents very
long.”
Atlanta’s Mayoralty Race.
This paper has no hypocritical
balderdash for Old Jim Woodward
whose malodorous career as mayor
of Atlanta has heretofore disgusted
the state of Georgia. We thought
then and say now that his personal
conduct while occupying the chair
of Atlanta’s chief executive was a
disgrace to the city and to the state
of which it is the capital.
But we will say now that we
believe that Jim Woodward will
make Atlanta as good
that town has had in many long
years and we believe he means to
behave himself. We believe he
wants to make amends for his
odorous past, and we look for a
strong, vigorous, sensible adminis
tration of the city’s business affairs.
Jim Woodward is no fool. He
is a hard headed old rooster who
knows a thing when he sees it, and
when he gets behind a movement
for the city’s betterment you
couldn’t get him away with a
stump puller. He goes after the
job and does the business. He
might not fit exactly as superin
tendent of a Sunday school, hot he
is a capital man to build viaducts
and hold down street railway cor
porations and eruptive police
boards.
There is a valuable lesson in
Atlanta’s red hot mayoralty fight,
and it is a wholesome lesson all
would-be politicians should learn.
It is that people are not going to
vote for any man that they
cannot freely approach at all times
and who does not at all times feel
at home with them.
There wa9 Stockdell. arrogantly
claiming the office by right of
common ownership or something
of that kind. He and his crowd
bad plenty of money to spend
and they spent it. He had behind
him the combined forces of the
Atkinson and English influence.
The Brotherton strength clustered
about Goodwin. There were Key,
Longino and the others, all making
a desperate effort to capture the
mayor’s chair. Then there was Old
Jim Woodward who had no money
and no financial, backing. Nobody
paid any attention to him. He had
been mayor once and disgraced the
town. Nobody would vote for him
any more except a few cheap work
ing people!
Then Stockdell picked up
Woodward like a scarecrow and
shook him in the face of Atlanta.
“The race is between me and
Woodward,” said he, “and all
other votes are lost. Is it Stockdell
or Woodward. Take your choice!”
When the matter .vasthus shoved
up to hundreds of good, plain bus
iness men they said: “All right,
we’ll take our choice. Here goes
for Jim Woodward!”
Money and arrogance and great
corporations aid not influence these
men. “We want somebody we can
go to and talk to about the eitj’s
business,” said they atid any nigger
iu Atlanta can approach Jim Wood
ward and tell him what he has to
say.”
Those few words told the story
Woodward might be a moral repro-
5 cents
Eight cents a pound is
what a young woman paid for
twelve pounds of flesh.
She was thin and weak and
paid one dollar for a bottle of
Scott's Emulsion, and by tak
ing regular doses had gained
twelve pounds in weight before
the bottle was finished.
Eight cents a pound is
cheap for such valuable ma
terial. Some pay more, some
less, • some get nothing for
their money. You get your
money’s worth when you buy
Scott's Emulsion.

have to say. He was the man
they wanted.
The friends in this county of
| Hon. Sam P. Maddox deeply sym
pathize with bin* iu the neath of
his son, Fred C. Maddox, who
died Thursday at his home in Dal
ton. Mr. Maddox was a bright
young man, and his future was
full of promise, and his death was
especially sad.
The white primary is the only
decent and orderly way.

Mr. and Mrs. Martin Collins an
nounce the engagement of their

o'clock.
Miss Collins isthe youngest daugh

popular young woman w ho possesses
many friends who are interested in
her future happiness.

Cartersvil e, but has made Tampa,
Fia., his home for the past year. He
is a young man of good business
qualifications, 'and has numerous
fiiends in this city.
This time last year the women
were busy and excited over the com
ing of the Federation meeting, which
occurred here last November. Au
gusta is to have these clnb women
this year, and with her reputation
for hospitality and charming women
this meeting there is sure to be de
lightful in every way.
Miss Laura Graham left last week
to take an interesting course at the
Peabody Normal in Nashyille.
The Music Club will meet a week
from the next Saturday, at 3 o’clock,
with Mrs. Max Scheuer, instead
of next Saturday. Most of the club
members are to take part in the

hence this postponement.
Mis. P. S. Shelman, accompanied
by her niece, Miss Annie Lou Hood,
left last week tor St. Louis.
Miss Edna Field left last week after
a pleasaut visit to her cousins, Misses
Bernice and Sara Tumlin.
We see where an eastern pastor
denounced from the pulpit last week
the game of flinch. Since then
ban has been sustainei by that pas
tor’s entire congregation. The first
objection raised was that the game
had become so fascinating (!) that too
much time was devoted to it. On
this principle any occupation is harm
I'ul which absorbs the individual
One can cultivate her flowers to the
neglect of her duties within doors.
Then is a keautiful yard to be put
under the ban? Do not young folks
in the church require recreation and
relaxation as well as those without?
We rather say, inculcate the grace of
moderation than bind with the shack
les of severity.
Mrs. J. W. Jones and children re
turn home this week from a month’s
visit to Mrs. Jones’parents in Dalton.

j the country in getting up such affairs.
I Some of our prettiest girls and most

the specialties to begin in the olio is
an act from the pretty opera. "Pina

ballads, songs, new coon ditties, good
jokes, tine costumes, and, in fact, an

After many trials and tribulations,
the Daughters of the Confederacy
have secured a piano to use for the
Ladies’ Minstrels. Mr. Cleveland,
the representative of the Cable Piano
Cos., who has been here a week, very
generously came to their assistance
and offered to loan them one. He
forthwith ordered anew piano from
the Atlanta house and placed it at
their disposal, for which the “Daugh

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh That
Contain Opium,
As mercury will surely destroy the
sense of stneli and completely derange
the whole system when entering it
*hrough the mucous surfaces. Such
articles should never be used except on
prescriptions from reputable physi
cians, as the damage thev will do is
tenfold to the good you can possibly
derive from them. Hall’s Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & to.,
Toledo, 0., contains-ncr mercury, and is
taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and 'mucous surfaces of the
system. In buy ing Hall’s Catarrh Cure
be sure you get the genuine. It is takrn
internally and made in Toledo, Ohio,
by F. J. Cheney & Cos. Testimonials
free,
Soid by Druggists. Price, 75c. per
bottle.
Take Hall’s Family Pills for consti
pation.
In the last analysis nobody knows,
but we do know that it is under strict
law'. Abuse that law even slightly,
pain results. Irregular living means
derangement of the organs, resulting
in Constipation. Headache or Liver
Trouble. Dr. King's New Life Pills
quickly readjusts this. It’s gentle,
yet thorough. Only 25c at Young

Such, in brief was the condition of an
old soldier by name of J. J. Havens,
Versailles, O. For years he was
troubled with Kidney disease and
neither doctors nor medicines gave
him relief. At length he tried Elec

in short order and now he testifies.
“I’m on the road to complete reeov

Kidney troubles and all forms of
Stomach and Bowel ompla mts.
