Are you shooting off your mouth
about Cartersville? If not fire a
few shots today.
There is no brighter editorial
writer in Georgia than Jim Nevin
of the Rome Tribune.
Now that the election is over let
us quit thinking about politics and
get down to business.
Wanted —a hot air tactory for
Cartersville. They are the most po
tent city builders on earth.
If Cartersville had half as much
hot air about it as Atlanta, Car
tersville would soon be as big as
New York.
Recent transaction show what
values are placed upon Bartow
county land. There is no better
county in the south.
The Rome Herald, which was
burned out a few weeks ago, has
again made its appearance under
the management of Mr. W. J.
Gunby. Mr. Gunby is an experien
ced newspaper man and ought to
do well with the Herald.
A Needed Law.
Some Georgia legislator who
wishes to do the state a valuable
service should secure the passage
of a law requiring all passenger
trains to come to a full stop on
approaching a meeting point.
We have a law requiring trains
to come to a full stop before ven
turing upon a railroad crossing,
and the same law should apply to
meeting points. When one train
is on the side-track, and another
comes by at lightning speed, an
open switch could cause, and does
often cause, a frightful disaster.
Whereas if the passing train came
to a full stop, the possible cause of
trouble might be discovered, and
if not, the rate of speed would not
be such as to cause serious harm.
The republican executive com
mittee chairman was especially ac
tive at the polls. It was this and
the apathy of democrats that gave
the republicans a larger vote than
they should have had.
Up Against It.
The ruling of the grand lodge of
Georgia at its recent meeting in
Macon, which makes all Masons
ineligible to hold the office of dis
pensary commissioner, has raised
a breeze all over Georgia.
Rome, Athens. Dawson and va
rious and sundry other places are
wondering what is to be done
about it. The Athens correspond
ent of the Constitution says:
“Under the provisions of that
resolution, no man holding that
office is eligible to membership in
the Masonic order in this state
and any Mason now holding the
office will have to give it up at the
expiration of his present term or
leave the order.
“This has a peculiar effect in
Athens. Under the law govern
ing the Athens dispensary, the
mayor of Athens and the chairman
of the board of county commis
sioners are dispensary commission
ers ex-officio. The point is raised
that under the resolution no mem
bers of the Masonic fraternity in
Athens can hold the office of mayor
and retain his position in the Ma
sonic lodge, since being mayor
makes him a dispensary commis
sioner.
“This point is also made regard
ing the position of chairman of
the board of county commissioners
“ There are something like three
hundred Masons in Athens, and
they taxe in large numbers of the
most prominent men in the city.
There are in the ranks of Masonry
here quite a number of men who
in the future will want to be mayor
WE MAY LOSE L. & N. RAILWAY.
The indications are now that the business handled by the new line
of the L. & N. will not come into Cartersville at all but will be deflect
ed at Whites and from there transmitted to Atlanta.
This will mean a serious blow to Cartersville and if this town can
do anything to cause the railroad people to change their plans it ought,
as a matter of simple business to be done. After the line from Whites
to Marietta is built the matter will be settled. It will be then too late
to bemoan what we have lost.
This matter is up to Cartersville today!
Of course it might be impossible for us to do anything to change
the plans of the company, but we do not know' this. We have not
taken the trouble to find out.
The railroad people have not been approached on the matter. They
have not even been tendered a courteous invitation to build the road
into Cartersville. So far as the railroad people know Cartersyille may
be solidly opposed to having any new road built here.
If the people of this town are not willing to have Cartersville seri
ously and permanently injured they owe it to themselves and to their
children who shall live here after them to make an effort to induce the
location of the main line of this great railway system through Carters
ville.
of Athens, and at the same time
these men are not going to allow
that aspiration to drive them out of
the Masonic order. If this is the
effect of the resolution they will
forego all political preferment and
retain their membership as Ma
sons.
“This state of affairs also exists
in the city of Rome, which has the
same law as that governing the
Athens dispensary. In some coun
ties the position of ordinary is in
volved, and men who are Masons
will be deprived of the privilege of
running for ordinary in those
counties, since that office carries
with it the office of dispensary com
missioner.”
The Local Paper.
Any man can take a newspaper.
It is the cheapest thing he cau buy.
It costs no more than a postage
stamp, and it ihstructs you and
your wife and teaches your child
ren, says an exchange. It comes
through rain or shine, calm or
storm, bringing you the best news
of the neigbohood. No matter what
happens. It enters your door as ‘a
welcome friend full of sunshine,
cheer and interest It shortens the
long summer days and enlivens
the long winter nights. It is your
adviser, your gossip and your
friend. No man is just to his wife
and children who does not give
them the home paper to read.
