The fuel qualities of Texas oil is

The Augusta Chronicle hopes

A drummer was introduced to a

A queer murder case is before
the court of Grayson county,
Virginia. Jeff Pierce is under
indictment for killing Mrs. Stone.
It seems from the evidence that
Pierce fired his gun at a partridge.
Mrs. Stone, was standing near.
Neither was aware of the presence
of the other. Mrs. Stone was not
struck, but the noise of the gun so
badly frightened her that she took
to her bed and died. Nevertheless,
Pierce was indicted for murder.
A year ago Miss Elizabeth Dick
inson, of New York, joined the
Mormon church. Twelve months
of the doctrine was enough for her,
and she is now once again a Con
gregationalist. Miss Dickinson said
she believed in immersion, latter
day revelation and plural marria
ges, but qualified the latter state
ment by adding that only souls
which were pure enough should at
tempt polygamy. “Very few,’’ she
said, “are possessed of such grace
that they can lox-e several proplt
the same, and, therefore, it is bese
not to practice polygamy at all.”

That’s the condition of many sufferers
from catarrh, especially in the morning.
Great difficulty is experienced in clear
ing the head and threat.
No wonder catarrh causes headache,
impairs the taste, smell and hearing,
pollutes the breath, deranges the stom
ach and affects the appetite.
To cure catarrh, treatment .must be
constitutional—alterative and tonic.
•‘I was afflicted with catarrh. I took
medicines of different kinds, giving each
a fair trial: but gradually grew worse until
I could hardly hear, taste or smell. I then
concluded to try Hood's Sarsaparilla, and
after taking five bottles I was cured and
have not had any return of the disease
since.” Eugexe Fof.bes, Lebanon. Kan.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
Cures catarrh—it soothes and strength

up the whole system.
SUPPORT THE NOMINEES.
Out of the cold calm of one of
the quitest campaigns ever known
in this county there comes a strong
appeal to the people. The white
primary from which emerged the
full ticket before the people was
one of the largest, fairest and most
harmonious initial contests that
has ever been known in the county.
Those who were factors in any
way in the making of this ticket
have a duty before them they can
not afford to flank or ignore. The
election is next Wednesday, and
every freeman who contributed to
the placing before the people the
men supposed to be most fit and
capable for the several offices should
stand by his work.
Every democrat who voted in
that primary, every democrat in
the county, whether he voted or
not, every populist who voted in
that primary and every republican
who voted in that primary is in
honor Pound to vote and vote for
the full ticket.
The right of suffrage is one of
the proudest rights guaranteed to
man, and every citizen should
exercise the prerogative of voting
and with an aim directed to the
common weal, and when he fails
to do this he neglects one of the
highest and most important duties
of citizenship. Let Bartow county
voters rally as one man to the
splendid ticket nominated at the
white primary in June, a ticket
good enough for anybody and one
composed of men whose election
.means a wise, just and prudent ad
ministration of public affairs.
CARTERSVILLF. AS A COTTON
MARKET
•
In these days of gigantic combi
nations which, like some mon
ster devil fish, stretch out their
merciless tentacles to draw from
the living animalcule of trade what
ever is in reach, the farmer, whose
hard wrought acquirings from the
soil are the mudsills of the com
mercial fabric, is the first to leel
the odious touch.
Standing in the clean atmosphere
of the individuality of his calling
and aloof from alliances whose
trend is into paths of doubtful
commercial rectitude, he views the
forces that would grind him with
his fellowmen who are not under
the shelter of Mammon’s strong
arms and a public policy that in
vites instead of represses the greedy
force, he steers as best he can his
bark for a harbor of safety.
To small details as well as larg
er he directs a watchful eye to hus
band his earnings to best advant
age, and to this end seeks the best
market in which to disposed of his
produce.
The News’ and Courant is im
pelled by a sense of duty to the
town no less than to the farmers of
the large territory contiguous, to
direct attention to Cartersville as a
superior cottou market. That she
has advantages now for handling
the cotton crop of the section su
perior to what she ever has had
and superior to other towns we
think will be easily proven. Be
sides heY two excellent warehouses
and regular buyers anew arrange
| rnent for buying has been institut
j ed by seven of our best merchants,
j and through the competitive efforts
, o£all, the very highest price is
assured. The new arrangement
contemplates weighing absolutely
free, and a set of scales in charge
of a competent weigher has been
placed on the depot platform ready
for business.
The farmer with a weather eye
for his own interest will find him
self favored if he brings his cotton
to Cartersville’s clean, advant
ageous market.
SOUTHERN TRADE EXPANSION..
There is good reason for the
pride which southern papers are
exhibiting over the great increase
in the cotton manufacturing inter
ease of the south, says the St. Louis
Republic. There have been many
prophecies regarding the future of
this industry. Growth within the
past few years justifies the most
roseate expectations.
At the present time the average
cotton crop in the United States is
about 10,000,000 bales. A little
more than 40 per cent of this cotton
is retained for manufacture in this
country. Of the total, northern
mills w'll use 2,290,000 bales
while southern mills will take
1,865,000 bales.

different. In 1595 northern mills
used 2,119,000 bales and southern
mills 852,000. At this rate seven
more years will find the Southern
mills taking 4,000.000 bales, against
2,600,000/bales to the north.
Many newspapers in the south
predict that with this practically
sure growth and with the natural
increase of trade which will follow
the completion of the isthmian
canal, the manufacturing interests
of the United States will be centered
south of Mason and Dixon’s line.
The south has only begun to feel
the impetus of the new commercial
spirit.
SUDDEN lIISE TO PROMINENCE.
Aside irom his being a relative
of a preseut and a former citizen
of Cartersville, a keen interest for
the people of this section —with
that of the people in common—
would attach to the candidacy of
Democracy’s choice for governor
of South Carolina, because of his
rather picturesque rise to promi
nence. Three years ago C. D
Heyward, his friends say, was not
heard of in public life, and they
now refer to him as the young
Cincinnatus and predict that he
will soon become a prominent
figure, giving solid reasons for
their predictions.
He is only 38 years old and has
lived quietly at Walterboro and
looking after his 4,500 acre farm,
with enough rice growth on it-to
give it the name of a rice farm,
until his intimate friends urged
him out, his resolution to make
the race having a lusty tilt with
his aversion to politics and his
manly modesty. He was promi
nently known in the Knights of
Pythias order, and this had to
suffice as his initial card as a
recommendation throughout the
state. His campaign was pitched
on a calm but solid plane, his sin
cerity, candor and honesty serv
ed in arousing a following and he

won out against four of the most
experienced politician of the state.
His speeches were models of con
servatism and wisdom.
Mr. Heyward announces a policy
which if carried out will win him
the renown, his friends picture
for him. It will aim at such ends
as the fostering of peace and in
dustrial progress, extending the
common school system, ameliorat
ing the condition of child labor,
the restraining of illegal combina
tions of capital, enforcing the dis
pensary law with steadiness in
stead of spasmodic effort, fitness in
appointments and pensioning
worthy confederates.
Mr. Heyward boasts a noble
ancestry, being descended from
Thomas Heyward Jr., signer of
the declaration of independence,
and on the mother’s side from the
Clinch’s, of Georgia, one of whom
Gen. I). L. Clinch, commanded
United States troops in the Indian
war, and represented this state in
congress. He is a brother of Col.
Izzard Heyward, formerly of this
city, but now of Atlanta, and a
cousin of Mr. J. B. Heyward, of
this city.
Ireland’s population now is but
a little more than half what it was

Rheumatism is caused by an acid, sour ''
condition of the blood. It is filled with acrid, irritating matter that settles
in the joints, muscles and nerves, and liniments and oils nor nothin r
else applied externally can dislodge these gritty, corroding particles They
were deposited there by the blood and can be reached only threugh the
Rubbing with liniments sometimes relieve temporarily the" aches an<i
pains, but these are only symptoms which are liable to return with every
change of the weather; the real disease lies deeper, the blood and system
are infected. Rheumatism cannot be radically and permanently cured
until the blood has been purified, and no remedy does this so thoroughly
and promptly as S. S. S. It neutralizes the acids anil sends a stream
