4 The Cartersville News AND COURANT AMERICAN PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY BY THE CARTERSVILLE PRINTING CO. X. .A.- President. I>. B. FREEMAN Kdltor BATES OF BCBSFHIPTIOX. One Year 91 00 Six Months BO Three Months 35 THURSDAY. NOV. 10, 1904. 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. From the Banner. The following items are from the last issue of the Adairville Banner.
