One Year Bix Month*. & Three Month* 545 THURSDAY. OCT. 20, 1604. .*■■■ , 1 Don’t forget Gordon Lee. Olney characterizes Teddy as the •‘boy with the gun.” Were you about to forget that an election had been held? These white primaries knock the blue out of the general election. This week the state fair com mences and all roads lead to Macon. The browns seem to have the call now —even the dark brown ta — And there is no reason to sus pect that the trusts do not continue to feel their importance. What’s the matter with Goidon Lee? He’s all right. Let’s give him a rousing endorsement. If the St. Louis fair does nothing else, it may cause the Igorrotes to go home and put on clothes. • Alfred Austin, poet lauereate, bewails English degeneracy. This bewailing is opportune. The pub lic had almost forgotten Alfred. A writer speaks of anew use for strawberries. The old use, which means some sugar and cream, a spoon and a limber wrist, is very good. From the way new subscriptions are rushing in it would appear that the News was getting to be a much appreciated journal. Our list is swiftly growing toyhe 2,000 mark. This is irom Puck: “Bishop Hartzell says he hopes to see the time when the American flag shall float over a part of Africa. The Bishop must be betting on Roose velt.” The present are golden moments for Cartersville. Let everybody pull for her interests. A mighty effort with the right kind of co-op eration would put our naturally favored city at the front. The statue of 1 irederick the Great is to be unveiled in Washing ton with imposing ceremonies. This land of freedom don't want too many statues of men like Fred the greatest old royalist in history’ The man that rises to oppose the candidates of the white primary in Georgia has more gall than seuse. They should have a rebuke at the polls that will last them a life time. The national election is only about two weeks off. Remember to go out and vote for the demo cratic nominees and thus register a rebuke to imperialistic methods and wild cat government. The friends of Col. Thomas H. Milner will be pleased to kt/ow that he is practicing law and get ting along nicely in his pro fession in the city of Denver, Col orado. He has many warm friends and well wishers back in old Georgia. CARTERSVILLE’S OPPOR TUNITY. There is a tide, in the affairs of man which, taken in its flood, leads on to fortune.” This is often found true with cities. Many cities have been built with their single large interest. Car tersville has many interests. New York, with her great entry port, has gone on to greatnes' until she lacks little of being queen of the world, Pittsburgh has her coal, Kalamazoo her celery, Lowell her textiles, Birmingham her iron, Atlanta her hot air and pluck, but Cartersville has more resources, and those more varied, than, per haps any town or city that can be thought of in the United Statts. Take. Bartow county, from an agricultural standpoint and what other wan match it? Cotton grows a bale to the acre and more, corn yields from 50 to 100 bushels on our best lands, fruits are at home, and those of every kind except the tropical; legumens, grasses, pota toas, melons, pumpkins, all do well; timbers in fair (Juantity, and minerals a round dozen kinds that are workable; climate suitable for outdoor work the year round; water powers numerous. Now compare these and more that could be men tioned with your one interest towns. < In a large country with distance sufficient from other towns to render her independent in her own field, what’s the matter with Car tersville being a great trade and industrial center? Transportation facilities now equal those of any other poiuts, and promise to be better. The Louisville and Nashville extension will establish new connections and also open anew territory that will want to and should do its trading here. Now let's meet the necessary conditions. Cartersville may think she is just going to grow great any how, but in many respects Carters ville is asleep. This will not do, if we expect to attain that which is within our reach, Every force ought to be guided to the one great object of building up our interests. There should be a general awakening. The new factory, soon to go in operation, the pew railroad com ing in, means much for Carters ville, if her people will just see it, and build up on their well-laid industrial foundation. Our Cham* her of Commerce ought to be re vivified and make itself the lever age that it could be in our up building, and then every citizen individually ought to show that brood spirit and that public pride that invites and holds the progres sive settler. ji Trade centers can not be too close together, and when one pulls up another near must retrograde. Remember this. Don’t let the opportunity that should mean our slip by and triumph be our un doing. Woman Society J n CAHUIfe GARNER JONES. • The Ladies’ Minstrels given last Friday night under the auspices of the Daughters of Confederacy was a genuine success. They are being congratulated as are also the young ladies who participated in the affair. From start to finish it was a highly interesting performance and that can not always be said of amateur per formances. Mr. Julius Menko, the director, who came here to manage this entertainment is a wonder in that he was only five days in pre paring these young ladies for this minstrel and there were no breaks in the performance either. The eight end “men” were the most absurdly ridiculous somebodies imag inable and the abandon with which they impersonated the darkey was a revelation to their friends, while their make up was absolutely killing. These burnt cork stars were Misses Ootavia Aubrey, Louiie Lumpkin, Marie Gilreath, Lizzie Ford, Laura r.n. ~t ti a t Dciic y>B&prsKUs, AuGiry, d“^si“ Cobb and Mrs. Will Satterfield. Miss Florence Milner was interlocu tor and she wore a becoming evening frock of light blue and with it a blue picture hat of chiffon, she also sang the ballad, “Tonight.” The young ladies of the chorus formed a beauti ful background in their white linen costumes with blue sailor collars and red ties, thus wearing the red, white and blue. In the second part they executed a pretty drill and sang some of the catc y choruses from Pinafore Miss Violet Menkee sang several taking ballads and a number of pretty children took part in the last part of the entertainment. The cunningest of these were little Misses Mary Lou Young and Iwogene Munford in their song “Reuben and Cynthia” and in their seriousness they simply convuls ed the aud.ence. Both wore the quaintest of Quaker costumes and it was with difficulty that one refrained from squeezing them right upon the spot. All in all the Ladies’ Minstrel was a most creditable performance and as it was given for a cause dear to all of us, the house v as crowded.
