THE CONFEDERATE MONUMENT.
The nobie work which the ladies
have undertaken of erecting a
monument to the confederate
soldiers, living and dead, of Bartow
county, is one that should meet
the hearty co-operation and aid of
the people. There is perhaps not
a county in any of the southern
states that sent more soldiers to
the front than Bartow, and their
valor was proven on numerous
battle fields.
There should be a shaft com
memorating their heroism. That the
matter has been so long delayed
should count for naught, unless it
did serve as a stimulus to effort,
for there are yet left living repre
sentatives of that memorable con
test, both men and women who
braved the trials and sacrifices of
those days and would transmit to
the younger and future generations
the sentiment that should live,
w’heu if left for those coming after
it might fail to be done.
It would be difficult to speak in
praise too excessive of the beauti
ful semiment expressed in the letter
of our valuable, refined and cultur
ed adopted citizen, Mr. A. O.
Granger, in offering his contribu
tion. Such magnanimity of ex
pression from oue who figured on
the union side is refreshing and
could come from none but a noble
heart. Nowhere but in America
could patriotic thought like that
find utterance, and it shows that
the bond of American brotherhood
can and does bridge extremes.
Mr. Granger is but oil the line
of the late lamented President
McKinley, who said the confeder
ate graves should have national
consideration and attention.
The letter of young Will How
ard, a boy so deserving and well
beloved in his native town, repre
sents a noble impulse from one of
a generation left to perpetuate the
sentimeut of the southern soldier’s
valor.
The unselfish interest shown by
our citizens in tjie cement plant
and any other industries that may
choose this as a location is refresh
ing and show’s that equal with a
realization of the need of enter
prises is the welcome that awaits
them.
A proposition has been made to
the Atlanta city council to utilize
the power from the crematory and
furnish the city arc lights at S3O
per annum. Atlanta now pays
$82.50 each for its lights to the
Railway and Electric company.
Little Colombia will now’ be
strutting around w’ith a pocket full
of cash, Uncle Sam havipg to
settle with her for the canal rights.
Polk county authorities have
bought tour road machines and a
full outfit for improving their
roads.

WILL INCORPORATE ANEW.
Chamber of Commerce to Proceed
Under New Name and Charter.
The Chamber of Commerce is
moving ahead on practical as well
as progressive lines. At the meet
ing Monday night, 2d, the report
from the committee; on by-laws
recommended that instead of using
the old charter obtained some fif
teen years ago that anew charter
should be obtained. It was urged
that there were none of the old
officers available to make transfer
of assets, and the organization had
not been kept up with any degree
of completeness.
That on by-laws as well as sev
eral other committees asked for
further time.
Among the matters discussed
was a place of meeting and an office
for the secretary. A committeer
was appointed to wait on the mayor
and aldermen and ask the use of
the council chamber for the pres
ent for meetings. An office for the
secretary will be arranged for by
the directors.
There was a fair sprinkling
citizens present but the absence of
many of the prominent business
men was noted with regret. The
start made by this body is certainly
a gratifying one and augurs much
good for the town in many ways,
independent of the possible secur
ing of large industries at once now
so hopefully promised. The bus
iness men, especially, and all others
of our citizens should see to it that
interest does not lag in the work
for the town. It is particularly
refreshing to see the activity and
concern of the younger men. The
finances of the institution were
announced in fine shape, about
sixty having signed to pay $1 per
month as dues and about thirty
to pay $5 per month.
Several letters inquiring about
locations were read.

Senate Passes Bill to Pay Church
Five Thousand Dollars
for Damages.
The bill to pay the Baptist
church in this city five thousand
dollars for damages to their church
building by the federal troops
during the civil war, which passed
the house of representatives about
two weeks ago, passed the senate
last Wednesday, and the church
will now get the money.
With this five thousand as a
nucleus the church intends to
raise another five thousand and
build a ten thousand dollar church.
They also have under considera
tion a proposition to sell their pres
ent property, including the pastor
ium recently erected, and purchase
a lot more centrally located, and
build a church and pastorium to
gether on anew lot.
The property is well located for
residences but is not as near the
center of the city as the members
desire for their new church, and
will be offered at a reasonable
price in order to change the loca
tion of the church.
Our Baptist friends are very
much elated over the prospect for a
new church, which will be a credit
to the congregation and an orna
ment to the church.
HOW NOBLE-
Patriotic Letters From Contribu
tors to Confederate Monument.
Mrs. Lily J. Bradley, the treas
urer of the Bartow Chapter of the
Daughters of the Confederacy, has
received the following letters:
Cartersville, Ga., Jan. 20, igo-p
Mrs. L. J. Bradley,
My dear Mrs. Bradley:
I see by the News and Courant
that the Bartow Daughters of the
Confederacy propose to raise a
monument to the valor of the con
federate soldiers. I am glaa to
h. ar of this, and hope the move
ment will be carried through to
complete success.
I am quite sure that the confed
erate soldier believed that he was
right in the part he took in the
civil war just as the union soldier
felt that right was on his side.
I believe that if all of the south
ern soldiers had been born and
raised in the north, and that if all
of the union soldiers had been born
and raised in the south, the respect
ive armies would have been of the
same size and composed of the same
men only on opposite sides.
I am a Sherman veteran, but
nevertheless take pleasure in en
closing my check for $25 toward
the fund you are raising.
Very truly yours,
A. O. Granger.
Cartersville, Ga., Jan. 30, 1903.
My dear Miss Lily:
In this week’s News and Courant
I noticed an article about the pro
posed confederate monument for
Bartow county, which I certainly
am glad to see. I hope enough
money can be raised to erect a
magnificent one, and when the sub
scriptions begin coming in if you
will just let me know when to do
so I w-ant to send you $5 for mine.
With a great deal of love and
best wishes always I am still,
Your boy,
Will Howard.
