The negro problem is always a
dead easy one to the northern man
who never had to stand guard over
his hen roost, observes the Macon
Telegraph.
W. L- Dotigla-', the three-dollar
shoe man, advertised himself from
nothing to the greatest shoe manu
facturer in the world. Such a man
deserves to be governor.
When “education” drops into

Now comes the' learned Ferror
Fenton, who has translated the
Bible direct from the original He
brew, and it was all a mis

Jonah. He was only thrown into
the hold’ of a ship named the j
Great Fish, and remained there
three days. Finally the Bible will 1
be translated into a common, !
everyday’ book, with nothing re-j
markable about it at all, il the !
learned scholars keep busy.
The Cotton Problem.
Every reader of Thk News!
should give careful attention to I
the article in this issue by Hon.
M. L. Johnson on the cotton situa
tion, and he touches the keynote
when he says that the only hope is
for the farmers, merchants and
bankers is to combine in one solid
unit to control the cotton now un
sold and to reduce the acreage for
the next crop.
This article by Mr. Johnson has
appealed in the Atlanta paper- and
has attracted widespread attention
in this and other states.
Facing the Future.
We shall soon stand at the
threshold of anew year —a year
which stretches itseif into the
mists of the future, and none of
us can do more than guess what
lies beyond.
But the year 1905 ought to be
one ol the greatest in the history
of Chrtersville aud Bartow county,
and will be-. oif the people of this
city and section enter upon the
good new year’s day with an un
bending determination to make it
so —to do the very best that can be
done for the growth and progress
of this town, let come what may.
It has been said in the,past that
Cartersville was a place of petty
jealousies and absurd cotitentious
and bickeiiugs. whether there
ever existed any justification for
this blot upon the fair name of
Cartersville we do not pretend to
say. But we do say that it ground
for such accusation ever existed it
has passed away, and on all sides
are to be seen the increasing man
ifestations of a wholesome and ag
gressive public spirit.
Our people are feeling the truth
and weight of the old adage that
in union there is strength, and the
further fact is being realized that
the way to do anything is to go to
work and do it. This spirit has

A Sinking Success.
The? recent election of W. L.
Douglas t" the governorship of
Massachusetts brings into striking
prominence one ot those rare suc
cess which it alwas •> does us gooa
j to contemplate.
• Born poor, t; • wn .if a widowed
mother “Wiil” Douglas was
buffeted about the wuiid in youth,
Working as an apprentice in a shoe
shop, finally owning a cobbler s-bop
of his own in Golding, Colorado,
where he is still remembered as
Will Douglas, the red headed little
shoemaker. Finally after he had
passed the age of thirty two he
started to manufacturing shoes on
his own account, with a total cap
ital of $875.
But littie rtd headed Will Doug
las had tne siuft in him of which
me" are made. At the 'ery start
Ihe discovered the value ot persis
1 tent advertising and in a few
j years W L. Douglas, the three
! dollar shoe man, became one of
j the best advertised individuals in
America. A few years ago his
face was familiar to every news
! paper reader in the United States.
In the meantime his little fac
-1 tory which was started in one
sm,i.l room at Brocton, was grow
ing night and day, and today it is
j the largest concern of its kind in
the world, with more than three
thousand people on its pa}' rolis. -
Here is what is.said of his recent
campaign:
"Hon. W. L. Douglas coyered
every bill-board in Massachusetts
with posters giving reasons why
he should be elected; he inserted
page advertisements in every
newspaper in Massachusetts call
ing attention to the real issues of
the campaign. His advertising
agent directed the campaign from
Brocton, where the great shoe fac
j torics are located. At seven years
! of age \7. E. Douglas was pegging
| away with an awl in a shoe fac
tory. At 58 he is worth $5,000,000,
j employs 3000 men, is governor 01
Massachusetts, and says intelligent'
and well directed advertising is
largely responsible for his success

Train of Construction Cars Falls in Wiih
Great Crash.
Yesterday morning a construct
ion train of five dirt cars went down
with a trestle, at the McConnell
hill in the northern suburbs ol the
city.
The trestle, constructed by Mr,
Lacy’s force grading the L. & X.
extension, was about 500 feet long.
It was not as secure as finally in
tended, but deemed sufficient in
strength to support the little train
run out oti to it. Suddenly it gave
way and with the cars on it. went
down, a distance of 30 feet to the
ground. A large number of men
were underneath the trestle.but saw
it ialliug and got out of the way;
no one was hurt. The fall made a
great noise.

Mr*. Roosevelt has spent two hours
each day for the past month or more
selecting her 200 Christmas gifts. To
be sure that no one gets an imme
diate duplicate she has kept a list
for the past three years of what has
been sent. When one thinks ot se
lecting some 300 gifts, it can be easily
seen that the first lady of the land
has a long and arduous task. How
many of us, although we may not
have our list gone to the 200 mark,
have saved a lot of nervous energy
by beginning our shopping early?
It is said that the holly will this
